Peter shook his head. "I tried that. But she doesn't want to say anything about it. Maybe your crazy cousin had threatened her not to say the reason why she works for him," it didn't matter to Peter though. As long as he was in love it was allright.

"I could try talking with her." Caspian offered. "We need to know why Lamont is gathering people. Perhaps once she knows that she'll have guards and doesn't have to go back to him, she might tell us something." The King said hopefully.

Lyric heard two voices as she walked down the hall, and happened to recognize Peter's. She peeked into the room, and say him talking to the king, who looked wounded. She frowned. Shouldn't he get that treated?
She tried to get a better look, but accidentally tripped, tumbling into the room an landing on her hands and knees beside them. Looking up, she shrunk back, blushing in emberassment.
"Er... hello..."

"Isn't it obvious why Lamont's gathering people?" Peter asked, turning to Caspian with a frown. "He wants as many people as possible so he would be able to overthrow you." he was about to say something when Lyric walked in. He smiled as he bent down and helped her to her feet. "Hello dear," Peter said with a smile, kissing her on the cheek.

"Hello Lyric." Caspian said, assuming that this must be her. "It's nice to meet you." The King held out his hand.
(Sorry for the short post again. >.<)

She blushed when Peter kissed her cheek, and blinked at King Caspian's hand when he held it out to her, as if she didn't quite know what to do with it. Needless to say, she was nervous, and couldn't quite do anything but stare. Higher authority had that effect on her...

Caspian laughed and shook her hand, ignoring her staring. "Well how do you do?" he said jokingly. "Tell her about the guards." he whispered to Peter. It was obvious the King as still thinking about Lamont, it shown clear on his face. Caspian wanted to know what his cousin was doing.

Peter smiled at her. "Go head, shake it," he said softly. "Its allright. I don't think Caspian would hurt you while I'm around. Right?" he looked at him as he said it.

She giggled, lightly, feeling a bit more comfortable. She took Caspians hand and shook it, shyly, refusing to look in his eyes. Her courage wasn't that strong, yet.
"I know he won't. He's a good man, as well as a good king." she said, with a smile.

Peter rolled his eyes and mock saluted him. "Yes sir," he muttered sarcastially. He shook his head and turned it to Lyric. He placed a protective arm around her waist. He knew Caspian was thinking of Lamont. Crazy man, he thought. "Lyric...we have decided to place guards on you. I know you might not like this but its for your own safety. And I do not feel comfortable with Lamont running around," he scowled as he said his name. What Peter won't give to hurt the guy.

"Thanks." he said, wondering why she wouldn't look him in the eyes. Everyone looked him in the eye, it was what he was used to. An expression of puzzlement crossed over his face as he thought. He nodded when Peter spoke of the guards.

Lyric nodded slowly. That would prevent her from seeing Lamont. Not that she wanted to.
She had to.
Pushing her hair behind her ear, she looked back and forth, between Peter and Caspian.
"I suppose, if it's for my safety..." she said, with a small nod, "Thank you for your concern..."

Peter leaned his chin on her shoulder, thinking about something. His eyes sparkled with worry. "Lyric...did Lamont threaten you?" he asked, a serious expression was in his eyes. He needed to know everything.

Caspian didn't say anything either, as he waited for Lyric to respond. He had the same question, and wanted as bad as anything to get information on his cousin. The King listend respectfully, though hatred boiled inside of him as he thought about all the pain and suffering Lamont was causing everyone, including Caspian. That brought another question to his mind. "Did you see Lucy?" he asked her. "Is she okay?"

She began shaking her head immediately.
"No, never threatened me, no... and I haven't seen the queen, no..."
