The seventh guardian

"Who ordered you this?" Aria asked

"No, no, I..I can't reveal the person" She shook her head

"Then do you want your parents dead?" Leonidas was becoming impatient, who dared order his only daughter to be poisoned? as far as he is concerned, he has no enemies

"He would kill them, if I reveal him to you"?

"He wouldn't know" Sean stated

But Ellery kept quiet

"You have to tell us Ellery, if you need our help" Aria said softly

"Help me save my child, my parents, please losing my brother is enough" She pleaded

"We will, just tell us who?"

"He always wears a mask when he comes to meet me, he was the one who ruined my life, I can recognise his scent, he..."

"Who is he?"

"The only prince...of...Ar..Argentum, prince Lucius"

It was like a freezed water was poured on Aria, she froze the moment, she heard what Ellery said

"What? Lucius?" Sean was surprised

"Yes, he... ordered it all, please keep your promise of not letting him know"

"What are you saying, Ellery?, why would you blame Lucius for your bad deeds"

"It's the truth, my lady, I wouldn't dare lie to his majesty"

"When has this been going on?" Leonidas asked

"Two years ago when my lady showed him her face, he had wanted me to report anything about her to him but I never gave him a full report that was when he sla...slayed my brother, when he travelled off to the modern city, I thought I was free but then he captured my parents the moment he came back asking me to...to..drug her highness"
