Jacob sighed heavily as he used one of his massive Mittens to facepalm himself. [color=2A7E2E]”Oh ye a special kinda huddy…”[/color] then slapping the back of Cassius's head. [color=2A7E2E]”Haud yer wheesht”[/color] As Liah began to speak 

[color=BA0505]”You made the scene... This was to just make sure you don't run off.”[/color] Liah said coldly. Twisting the blade slightly from her hip so the tip was aimed towards the neck of Cassius, though a few feet back. But the blade then turned on Jacob. 

Jacob raised a hand, despite being a foot and a half taller and twice as wide. He looked slightly worried.[color=2A7E2E]”Luve, the idjit is of his trolley. Ye know this clearly.”[/color] He said as he slightly side stepped ever so slightly behind Cassius. 

Crystal touched Liah’s arm and she dropped her blade’s tip toward the ground. Before sheathing it once again. Crystal finally spoke up.[color=1e4fff]”I do believe I said we were taking you to [i]MY[/i] father in the first place. But first…”[/color] She said as she looked over to Mathias, trying to work up the courage to walk over to him and give him the book. However she heard horses coming up on her and turned again to see her father approaching and dismounting from his horse. 

[color=1e4fff]”Perfect.. Fa..”[/color] Crystal began, hoping this would be over quickly so she could speak to Mathias, But was cut off as he quickly confirmed Cassius was his son. She stared at her father with her mouth slightly open as he went on to explain he was married before, that he knew he had a son… 

Her shock did not fall from her face as she tried to wrestle with this new information… with her gaze going to Cassius. Normally she would have been sad for him for losing his mother but it didn’t really register for her. 

Her father rested his hand on her shoulder and reminded her of the prince court event. She pulled away without thinking. Logically it made sense why he wouldn’t speak of him, it was probably hard for him to talk about. But she was still hurt…She couldn’t help that feeling. 

[color=1e4fff]”I-um.”[/color] She started, as her eyes flicked back and forth between the two. She could now clearly see the resemblance between them. [color=1e4fff]”Does…mom know? Violet?”[/color]

She waited for his answer while hugging her books even tighter, so much that the bindings might have been crushed. Her thoughts turned to her bugging her parents for a little brother as a child… She pushed the thought away as she shook her head. [color=1e4fff]”I-I cant deal with this…right now…”[/color] She looked to Mathias weakly, she couldn’t go to him now. Her face was red with embarrassment. 

[color=1e4fff]”I-”[/color] She started to say as she looked at them both, Before shaking her head and walking away towards her home. She was suddenly stopped by Liah who offered a hand and indicated to Crystal's arms. A brief hesitation before she gave a tiny thankful smile and allowed one of the books to slip from her grasp. Before glancing at Mathias and moving on out of embarrassment. 

Jacob quickly followed, bowing his head to Lord Calbert as he left then half jogging to get up next to Crystal. Bending down and Whispering something to her. 

Liah watched as they left, tucking the book she took from Crystal against her chest with one arm… She bowed her head to Lord Calbert and only gave Cassius a cold glare, before turning and walking towards Mathias. 

Once she reached him, she quietly said[color=BA0505]”Lady Crystal regretfully has an appointment to keep. However she wished to give this to you in person, but could not given the unforeseen interruption.”[/color] Liah offered an old leather bound book that looked very well worn and used, but at the same time seemed well taken care of. 

Seeing the cover finally she could see it was called ‘Sir Ivan Whittlock’s collection of Fantastical true Stories.’ She glanced at the man's child and gave him a small smile. Before looking back towards Mathias. [color=BA0505]” Her [i]personal[/i] copy…”[/color] She said softly with an intense knowing look. She then gave a very slight nod, looking the man up and down clearly before turning on her heels and walking in the direction Crystal went.
