Fighter 113

CHAPTER 011

Gemma sat back down and relaxed a lot when she saw that it was only Chloe and Lexie. They both walked into the clearing to where we were sitting and Lexie was looking around at the clearing as well.

"Wow. It's been years since I've been here." Lexie said.

"You've been here before. This place doesn't look like it's ever touched." I said.

"I used to come here all the time with your mother. She loved it here because it was peaceful. After she was crowned Queen, she never got any peace and there was always someone hanging around her. She hated it, so we'd sneak off and come here. They never found us." Lexie explained.

We all had the mind link open so the four of us were listening to the conversation. I didn't want to think we were leaving Lucas out of anything. He might get the wrong idea and I didn't want to scare him off by teenage secrecy bullshit. "Chloe. You're never usually over this side of the territory. I mean, not often." I said.

"Yeah. Mom suggested going for a walk and I thought it was a good idea. It's been a while since we've spent any time together alone." Chloe said.

Otto sat right next to me as well, so close that we were basically leaning on each other and Lexie was studying us really closely.

"I'm Lexie, by the way. I'm Emma's godmother and the Queen's right hand." Lexie said.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm Lucas. I'd love to meet you in human form, but we've left our clothes in the woods behind school." Lucas said.

"Yeah. Of course. It's fine." Lexie said.

"Well, we wouldn't want to interrupt your walk or anything." I said. But Lexie just smiled at us.

"Oh. Don't worry about that. This is actually where we were headed. I wanted to show Chloe. To show her that I was once a normal teenager who needed space instead of having a hovering parent around." Lexie said. "I thought your parents died before my mother became Queen." I said.

"They did. But that didn't make anything easier. I was a rebellious teenager. Just like your

mother." Lexie chuckled.

"My mom wasn't a rebel. She was just strong...wasn't she?" I asked.
