"My mother said they were not going to hurt me and she made a deal with some people I know nothing of. I want to find out who the people were. She could not trust the palace guards and her soldiers any longer then so she decided to ask for help," Rose said as she sat to eat the breakfast Liam prepared for her.

"I will have my men investigate it. I will also try to find out anything I can," Liam said also sitting down to eat breakfast.

"We are leaving for Star city today, right?" Rose asked before she took a bite of the homemade bread Liam baked for her.

"Yes, we should leave before noon," He replied her. He has tried for the past twenty four hours not to say anything about the flash drive they found in one of the fake gold. She had remained in the room for hours unwilling to open the door or answer him.

He was already losing his cool when she opened the door and walked out of it with her eyes swollen and red and there was something new about her.. Something was very different although he could not put his finger on it.

"Okay," she said monotonously and continued eating her breakfast.

Liam began noticing the difference in her. This was the first time he has heard her speak in such a tone.

"When are we getting married?" She asked after breakfast as she stood up.

"A week after we arrive in Star city. Your foster father has made everything official. You are no longer their daughter, you have also gotten your identity back and I have gotten everything ready. Are you sure you don\'t want a grand wedding?" he asked although expecting a very negative answer from him.

"I will think about it."

"Really?" Liam asked with his eyebrows arched and his eyes shining with excitement. He could not believe she was actually going to think about it. "If you agree then we will postpone the wedding so we could get everything ready including sending out wedding invitation cards," he said happily.

"I will go to the palace afterwards," She told him as she rinsed the cup she used to drink the fresh orange juice he served her.

"Uh?" Liam asked astonished as he stood up. All the earlier excitement was gone. "Why?"

"I have to. That is where I belong. I will go to the palace. It is one of my mother\'s last wish. She wants me to remain in the palace," she replied resolute and unbending.

"Are you . . ." Liam began but stopped. He was not sure she will be safe in the palace but he won\'t stop her because of that. He will simply find a way to ensure her safety in the palace before she finally moves into the palace. He was going to try not to stop her but rather support her as her shield. "If you will be moving into the palace, then I don\'t think it is right we let people know about our relationship yet. It might make things harder for you."

"Whatever you say," Rose said and headed upstairs to take her bath and get ready to leave for Star city. She glanced down at Liam who was taking care of the remaining dishes and shook her head.

She knew he was very excited when she said she will think about making their wedding grand and public and she was actually thinking of changing her mind but since he did not want to because she was going into the palace, she decided to let him make the decision.

He must be really angry that she was going to the palace for him to take back his word about the grand wedding. She did not know why she felt that way but it seems he was not going to make their wedding grand because he was angry in a petty way that she was going into the palace.

She smiled when she opened the door of the wardrobe in his closet that contained the clothes he had made available for her. She grabbed an off-white cotton shirt and a pair of light blue jeans. She wanted to look casual and be comfortable.

The journey to Star city was not comfortable at all at first. She could not sleep at all and her eyes have been so swollen from crying just hours ago that she had to wear a pair of sun glasses to cover her eyes to shield it from the bright light of the sun before she entered the jet because her eyes felt unusually sensitive to the sun light due to rubbing them frequently as she cried.

"I found this cream," Liam had said when he offered her a cream as she laid on the chair begging sleep to take her to a faraway land but since it seems it was not willing to grant her her heart desires, she laid with her eyes closed.

After rubbing the cream around her eyes, it seemed to have worked magic making the pain she felt around her eyes stop and when she used an eye drop he went to bring for her from only him knows where, she felt the pain in her eyes reduce to a comfortable level.

When sleep did not take her away after a long trial, she gave up and picked a magazine and began reading through it. She spent her time going through those pages still feeling bored until Liam walked up to her.

"Do you want to sleep?" Liam suddenly asked standing beside her.

"Yes," she replied hoping her brought a sleeping pill she could use and finally sleep.

"Move aside," he suddenly said with a serious look.

"UH?!" she asked confused and looked at him in confusion. She glanced at his hands but she did not see any pill and she frowned.

"Move aside," Liam repeated waiting patiently for her. He watched her frown in disappointment and her lower lips pushed forward slightly to form a little pout.

When she seemed to be unmoving, he bent and carried her and moving her to the side of the large chair which was now converted into a small bed.

"What . . .?!" she began asking him but she shut her mouth when he joined her on the chair and hugged her smaller frame.

"Now, sleep," he whispered warmly into her ear, his warm breath blowing against her ear.
