Elliote's POV
It's almost 24 hours since she disappeared
Where is she right now? Did she run away? No one in this household ever seen her, I asked Stella a few times but she said she's been in Celeste's room all day yesterday
"Nobody ever saw her go away? What about the coaches?" Severus asked
"I already asked the coaches in this state, your highness, but they all claimed that they never saw lady Eloise outside the ducal's state," Theodore replied as he stood behind him
"I'm worried," Shae said while looking at Celeste's unconscious body, "First, Celeste hasn't woken up yet and now Eloise disappeared."
"It's gonna be alright, we'll save our daughter," I responded while comforting her
"Lord Elliote!!"
We turned out heads and saw a guard running toward us
"Lady Eloise is here!" He said
We hurried to the gate of our state and saw Eloise riding a horse with a.... commoner child?
She went towards us holding the hand of the child
"Who's she?" Shae asked
"She's Augustus's sister, your highness," Eloise replied
"Where the heck have you been?" I said I'm furious at her right now
"We're gonna talk about that later. How's Celeste?"
"She's in her room, still unconscious," Shae replied to her while touching my arm, trying to calm me down
She went inside and still holding the child
They all went to Celeste's room
"What happened to her?" The child asked
"She was also attacked by the same thing you saw before."
"The snake..."
That child also saw the snake? How? Where did she come from?
"May I?" She asked Eloise
Eloise's facial expression is confused but she let her walk near Celeste
She put her hands above Celeste and suddenly light comes out from her hands
"What are you doing to her!?" I raised my voice
"Elliote, please! Calm down!" Shae is holding me to calm me down
The light disappeared
"What did you do?" Eloise's asked
The child didn't answer but suddenly Celeste screamed and crying
"Mom! Dad!"
"Celeste!" Shae and I went toward her and hugged her
She's still crying while hugging us
Shan also cried and went toward her sister to hug her
I look directly at that child, she looks scared at me and hides behind Eloise
If she's Augustus's sister, how did she have magic?
