CHAPTER 17.0: Abilities


    I stood beside Lexus in front of his parents King Peter and Queen Jane with Konn behind us. “You


    believe you’re the holder?”


    “We believe she’s the holder because of the power of sight in her third eye. She also had a holder


    dreamst night,” Lexus answered.


    The King looked down at me. “What have you seen with your third eye?”


    I thought about Cade arguing with Ve during work and Princess Hannah sneaking out to ditch ss. I


    couldn’t say either of those because it would throw them under the bus. “I saw Konn speaking with the


    two of you here this morning. You two were disagreeing about something then Konn left, and Gray was


    waiting for him outside the door.” I looked at their desk. “There were papers on the desk, documents of


    the kingdom’sints.” I tried to remember other details that were different. I looked at the tv. “An


    interview was ying on the tv.”


    “That''s enough,” The Queen stopped me. “We believe you. Now what was your dream? Please sit


    down, both of you.” Lexus and I sat down in the chairs facing the king and queens’ desk that they were


    sitting behind. Konn remained standing. I told them about the second part of my dream. “The


    Gemstones? All of them?”


    “I’m not sure, but more than one for sure.” I wish I had more details for them.


    The King shrugged. “Don’t worry Jane, there''s no way for us to know if this was an actual holder


    dream.” He reassured his wife.


    “The guard, she said the passcode to the safe.” I wasn’t sure if I should have just said it.


    “Say it,” the King challenged.


    “3365-”


    “Okay.” The Queen cut me off again so I wouldn’t say thest two digits then red at the King for


    challenging me. Lexus rolled his eyes, most likely because he was the only one who didn’t know the


    passcode. His parents were keeping it from him, so was it because they didn’t trust him? “There’s no


    more doubt in our minds that you’re the holder but we’d like you to use your third eye in front of us.”


    “Can you do it onmand now?” Konn asked sincest time I couldn’t do it in front of him.


    “She can do it if they’re close enough,” Lexus answered for me. “So far she hasn’t been able to see


    something outside of the castle and has only fixated on people.” It felt good to have him there. I think


    he knew I didn’t want to have to do all the talking.


    I closed my eyes, waiting for someone to give me a name. “Look for Hannah.” I couldn’t do that, and


    not because she told me not to spy on her but because she’d definitely be in trouble with them. I tried


    to see Hannah just in case she had gotten back but she was too far out of my reach.


    “Hannah isn’t here.” Konn said so I didn’t have too. “Herst three professors said she never showed


    up, but we have guards out looking for her.


    “That girl is going to be the death of us.” The King said. “What about Cade?”


    I thought of Cade and saw him with his mother and Gray. “He’s with Lynn and Gray. They’re in the


    great hall eating.”


    “I can confirm that’s what they’re doing.” Konn said.


    I wasn’t sure if that was enough for them. “I can try focusing on ces,” I suggested.


    “The ballroom.” The Queen said.


    I had been there once before during the castle tour I had with Arma and Stewart. “There’s a group of


    people there. They’re nning something, there are banners and other decorations being made.” I


    started describing the decorations and people. My head was starting to hurt so I had to stop. “I’m kinda


    burned out now, is that enough?”


    They looked satisfied. “Yes. You will be Prince Lexus’ fulltime aid now.” The King looked at Konn.


    “Cade can pick his new position if he chooses to continue to work here. He’s no longer expected to.”


    His attention came back to me. “We wille up with a new schedule for you outside of aiding Prince


    Lexus since your abilities need to be developed. You’ll be taking your own sses soon. We also will


    request you to use your abilities for our kingdom. You’re all dismissed.”


    I wasfortable working for Lexus but it felt like more pressure to have to do important tasks for the


    king and queen too. We left and I stopped Konn. “I also had another holder dreamst night.” Lexus


    waited for me at a distance so I could talk to Konn.


    Konn looked confused. “Why didn’t you tell them?”


    I chuckled nervously. “I was talking with my mother in it.”


    Konn looked away. “That doesn’t surprise me.” He paused. “Promise me you won’t go looking for her.”


    I didn’t see how I could promise that. “I’m sorry but I can’t, you said she disappeared maybe that dream


    was a sign that I should look because it’s proof I’ll find her.”


    “You might not be satisfied with what you find Aqua. If she seeks you out, then that’s fine but you


    shouldn’t look for her.”


    I walked past him to Lexus. I expected Konn to react differently because he loved her, but I guess that


    didn’t matter because he didn’t choose her. “What happened? You told him about your mother?”

    “Yeah, but he doesn’t want me to do anything about it…” I wanted to meet with my mother almost as


    bad as I wanted Lexus. “What’s next?”


    “I need you to do some things for me and ask for your advice but first.” He stopped at a door and


    looked around. Noone was around so he pulled me into a room. “This is one of the empty rooms.” He


    said before pushing me against the wall and kissing me with tongue.


    I felt so much stress wash away. “Wait.” I said when he was about to move his month to my neck.


    “There’s makeup there… I had to cover the hickey and bite mark.” He also left a bruise on my waist


    with his grip. Instead of stopping he just went to the other side of my neck.
