Chapter 118: I Believe in You

I thought about how Warren had left the palace once with me without telling anyone, and said he had done that in the past as well.

I squeezed Theo's hand back and told both of them, "He may just need some time for himself. I wouldn't be too con- cerned. Theo, why don't you talk to the scout and I'll see if I can find Warren?"

I gave him an understanding smile, doing my best to be supportive.

"Alright," he said. Reluctantly, he gave me a quick kiss and left with Jake.

I let out a sigh and slowly made my way back to the palace.

A slithering sound in the leaves made me perk up my ears and I saw Perceval coming toward me. It immediately brought a big smile to my face.

"Hey, Percy! It's been a while!"

The snake slithered right up to me and coiled around my ankles. I smiled and bent down to scratch his head. He closed his eyes and flicked his tongue at me. I imagined him smiling a little as he bobbed his head back and forth, leaning into my touch.

"I missed you too," I giggled.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and started slithering away, but didn't get far before he looked back and hissed at me.

"Is there something you want to show me?" I asked. I fol- lowed after him. Some fond memories came to me, and I won- dered where he would take me this time.

"Percy, this is...Sebastian's old room?" Why would Perceval take me here?

Then I realized that the door was cracked open and I could see someone inside.

My heart caught in my throat when I recognized him.

"Warren?"

He stopped dead and slowly looked at me.

His eyes looked distant and lost.

"You're here! I'm so glad to see you moving around. I take it you're feeling better," I said, walking into the room. "But why did you come here?"

Warren's face was a little pale and he looked around quickly before he replied, "Yes, I'm feeling better. Thanks for asking." However, he avoided looking at me.

"Warren, you okay?" Something didn't feel right.

He smiled, but I could tell it was strained. "I'm okay... I, um, I've always misunderstood my brother, but now, I've decided to let go of our past."

"Really? That is great," I grinned, relieved. "I knew you two could bury the hatchet. That's what family does...."
