Chapter 14: Can't get me out of your head?
"I want to question you!"
"Who is there? I need your help" Xenia shouted with a ray of hope rushing aimlessly at the prison cell's door.
"I'm right behind you!" Lysander announced.
"What? Where? And who are you? And....and how can you see me...?"
"Isn't it obvious? Or is it my voice you no longer recognize? Don't try to pretend Xenia! I know you know this would happen. You know all about me! So why pretend?"
"Where were you moving to?" He proceeded with his interrogation.
*Silence*
"I asked you a question I expect an answer for!"
"And what if I say I am not giving you any?"
"You will!"
"What? Are you going to use your powers to manipulate me into speaking?"
"Why didn't you tell your father you knew I was Lysander and not my father?"
"Because it wasn't necessary in knowing who you are, Lysander! What mattered was fighting you!"
"Well, you people seem to be winning!" He smirked and walked to Xenia trapping her chin hard between his palm.
"You treacherous being! You made the Carrosse rider take the other path because you knew I'd come for you right?"
"I would do anything for Rivendelle!!" she said with unfiltered bravery.
"Even if it meant putting your mother and brother's life in danger?"
*Silence*
"You have changed, Xenia!"
"Look who's talking about change! Where is that sweet little Lysander? Huh?"
"He is dead and don't ever talk about my past again if you want to live to see the next day!" He got out of the dungeon and walked off to his quarters with a dangerously sharp aura after that little heated quarrel with his childhood bestfriend.
Xenia was secretly seeing Lysander to care for him when Lysander's parents were mistreated in the past. They were very good friends until Xenia's father killed Lysander's parents together with his unborn baby sibling.
From that day little Lysander swore to make Xenia and the whole of Rivendelle sweat blood from their bones.
Lysander sat outside staring into nothingness. He knew Xenia inside out. She was devious even her name showed. She was very good at planning. He wondered what she was planning against him now! She knew a lot about Lysander's powers! Lysander would have known what she was cooking up only if she said it out loud which she wouldn't dare do and of course if she thought about it, he could easily read her thoughts.
But Xenia as intelligent as she was, she kept her mind blank!
"Lysander!".
He looked up and there was his sister, Henrietta staring down at him.
"Are you okay?" she asked sounding concerned but Lysander already knew what was on her mind. If it wasn't for his marriage and he bearing children then what else?
"You are starting a war with Rivendelle. Right?" She said.
"No I am continuing the war they seemed to have forgotten!" Lysander replied stunning his sister.
"Okay...?And in fighting a war you need Allies right?"
Lysander just stared blankly at his sister wondering where this was headed to!
"Well, I got you Allies!"
Lysander stared into his sister's eyes and she stared back nervously.
"With Ashland!" she added.
"Thank you but I don't need Allies. I have already won the war".
"Oh come on of course you....!"
"I said I don't need Allies! I could just burn Rivendelle with just a gaze but there is something I am considering for now!" Lysander opened up!
"No, Lysander! You... you know I can't undo this! I already did this. And I risked my life for it!"
"I don't need Allies, Henrietta. I want to be alone now!"
"Please consider this, Lysander think a little longer about this. Before you make your final decision. Please!" She begged with eyes glistening with hot tears threatening to fall.
"Okay". He said and got up to leave. His sister was surprised and happy at the same time! She was about to squeal out in happiness but stopped midway when she saw Lysander returning to her.
"I have thought about this already!" He said leaving his sister's jaw down!
"A...Al... already?"
"Yes and don't you want to know my answer?"
"Of...of course....of course yes. What is your answer?"
"No!"
Lysander heartlessly said and tried to leave but his sister held him pleading!
"Please Lysander!!! Please!"
"The same way you did this, the same way you should be able to undo it!" He left his sister over there who became so angry her face turned red with imaginary smoke popping out of her nose and head.
"Did it work?" Henrietta's other sister asked.
"Of course it didn't! You know him all too well! I feel like... like squeezing life out of him, then tossing him over!!!" She screamed annoyed at her sister!!!
***
Xenia opened her eyes after dozing off for a while! She felt light flashed on her face!
"Hey, you take that out of my face!" she ordered furiously covering her face!
"I'm sorry, Princess Xenia!"
"You know my name?"
"Of course I do! I know Anastasia has a sister she has your strong attitude!"
"Anastasia?"
"Yes, your sister!"
"You know where she is?" Xenia asked slowly rising to her feet as the servant which came in set up dinner for her!
"Don't you?" The servant asked back.
'No, I cannot trust someone from here! How do I know she is not lying?' Xenia thought.
"And who are you?"
"A humble servant serving his highness Lysander. Which I know you know! You will have great complications with your sister over Lysander in the future!" The servant smartly answered!
"Hey! How did you know I know Lysander?"
The servant wiped her hands clean and passed the tray of food to the angry princess.
Upon reaching the door, she turned and said,
"By the way, I will be serving you this week since I know your name... it's only right you catch my name too. The name's Thyra!" Thyra said and left.
***
Anastasia was already prepared for the night. She was having dinner in her room now. She wouldn't dare eat on the balcony ever again. She was scared the balcony was cursed following the event which conspired earlier today.
She was still thinking about Lysander and what he said nonchalantly today!
'I carried you from the bathroom to your bed'. Lysander's voice played over and over in her thoughts. After she finished eating dinner she gulped down some milk and belched.
" *Sigh* Why is the food here always this mouth drooling and dangerously delicious?"
"Can't get me out of your head?" Anastasia fell from her seat onto the cold and hard floor.
"Aw!"She yelped in pain.
Lysander let out his hands for her to hold but she ignored and used the bed as support.
She sat on her bed with her face as red as cherry.
