At Axton's barracks

looks new, official today Hardwin became the new in charge.

In accordance with the letter of mandate as well as the letter of duty from the Duke himself. Subsequent to

weighing long enough eventually Hardwin had a good feeling about the position

these. The letter he received at that time was a decision letter from Axton of course.

only one of his duties was to guard the Duke's residence, which meant him

I will often meet Ai. A good opportunity.

First party at the residence

The duchess is in progress, some nobles are quite interested in the invitation

this time. It is rare for the Duke residence to hold such a festive party

these.

But don't be fooled, though,

this party is good camouflage for Ai in smoothing her action.

“ mistress, several guests

already present and meet the lower floor of” said Mily by holding Ai's hand

down stairs.

“ can be half of

invitation?” ask Ai.

“ I think yes, half

from the invitation already present” jawan. Ai pulled the corner of her lips.

“ good night all”

greet Ai as soon as she reached the ground floor. All eyes were on the Duchess

which looks stunning with a pich dress that is so aggun.

“ night Duchess” one

one noble approached to chat with the hostess of the residence.

“ shilahkan enjoy

party” said Ai who took a little distance from the gentlemen

looks a little flirty on him.

The waiters are busy

preparing drinks and fancy food. The guests were so spoiled with

expensive and delicious. Ai was so strict in this, not wanting any

wrongdoing.

The party's getting crowded, this

it was right for Ai to stay away. He's sure Masy's best friend must be

waiting for him at the meeting place. No one seems to notice her

walk straight to the side court and board the train. The guests are not

knowing that the madam of the residence had left, even Millypun did not know

with his lady plan.

Inside Ai's train already

change the clothes he had already dressed. After a while,

train's stopped. The car is very helpful in this regard.

“ go” Ai don't want

it is risky if he will be known to someone.

“ Ai” a woman

patting shoulder. Of course Masy.

“ come” Ai sign in immediately.

This is the barracks

Axton, Ai knows that Hardwin is on duty. This provoked suspicion from

Ai.

Those two friends

entering Bracak not through the main door, Ai has been here before.

The memory is still clear where the alternative roads connecting the main building.

“ what are we here for?”

although Masy accompanies Ai, in fact, she also does not know what her best friend plans

that's.

“ I need to meet

someone” replied Ai briefly. They arrived in front of a room

enclosed. Slowly Ai knocked on the door.

Tok tok tok. not long ago.

the sound of footsteps approaching.

The cheque is open, somebody

the one who had been waiting for me opened the door. Without waiting for long

both of them immediately stepped in.

“ you?” Masyight

I was shocked to see Hardwin in the room.

“ what makes you

here?” instead of responding to Masy's shock, the man was without further ado

directly asked Ai.

“ about Duke, what

know something about Duke's departure?” ask Ai. The three of them are still

stand like a circle.

“ no, Duke no

saying anything other than giving this letter” Ai immediately took the sheet

from Hardwin's hand. At first glance there's nothing strange about a letter of duty from Axton,

but in the details of the task there are 2 points that seem to make Ai semakain understand

“ you are also in charge of

name security residence?” ask Ai frankly.

“ yes, it is clearly stated

in the mail of the task.”

“ what Axton didn't say

anything when he put you in jail?”

“ I don't think, just

just Duke as if convinced that this time the war will break out” Hardwin sure with

her word.

“ actually has a problem

what?” Masy who was silent started to make a sound.

“ I don't know for sure, though,

but Axton's safety this time is very threatened. And I'm sure the kingdom is

the mastermind of all this” Ai sat on the sofa while lowering her head.

“ I have to do

something to help her” Ai looked up as if asking for help from the

his friend.

“ so this is why you

secretly meeting someone, like this” Masy approached Ai. He sat in

next Ai.

“ I'm afraid when the kingdom

watching me” Ai's voice starts to weaken. The tremor of anxiety was clearly heard from

sana. The three people in the room were silent in their respective minds.

“ this, send this letter

to my uncle” Ai immediately went he was chased for time. Hardwin received a letter

and nodded slowly.

“ if there is balsan, order

the other person who delivered it to me”Ai was already preparing to leave.

“ if you need help,

don't hesitate to me.” Hardwin never saw Ai this box, can be in

make sure that the problem his friend is facing is so big. Ai smiled

thin before finally leaving with Masy.

“ you go with me”

say Ai to Masy. Masy who knows the reason just follow suit.

 In accordance with Ai's instructions, the carriage was already

being in place. Quickly change the clothes back, of course with

Mashies. They did not forget the feast that awaited them at the residence.

Some time they

it had arrived, without leaving the suspicions of the two women entering the party.

“ mistress, from earlier

I looked for you” once I got to the room Mily directly approached her mistress

which was not seen a moment ago.

“ I spent time

with Lady Halbert” replied Ai indifferently. There was no suspicion that Mily could catch.

Finally silent.

“ how about

party?” ask Ai.

“ no problem

madam, it's just that some nobles are looking for you to invite chat”

answer Mily.

“ well I will

meet them” Ai leaves Masy and follows Mily's orders.

After it goes as

ought to. Ai continues to entertain guests so that there is no suspicion. The night is getting late

some guests left a while ago. Only a few remain

still faithful at the dinner table.

Ai went to Masy

seen talking to others. Once there, the person immediately

leave Masy and say goodbye.

“ how is it served?”

ask Ai who knows if from now on this woman in front of him does not stop

munching.

“ this is so good, you

must know the reason of my hunger” Masy a little sneer their action some

just a moment ago. It's so exhausting.

“ of course Lady, so I

please allow you to stay here so that you are satisfied to enjoy the food”

they laugh crisply.

No one knows what it means

from that conversation other than the two of them. Enjoy the view from Candela

chamber. Accompany Masy who is still eating, by daydreaming alone. If true

he here looks fine, but not for a moment his mind switched

in the figure of Axton, her husband. Far away there somehow.
