Who's that man?

Who's that man? 

Chapter 2

She yawns for the umpteenth time as she feels her eyes heavy. It has been a couple of hours since Athena and her mom left, leaving her all alone here, and she's already getting bored. She's feeling sleepy, but she doesn't want to sleep as it's almost evening. She may find it difficult to sleep later if she sleeps now. 

Striding out of the house, she walks her way to the royal castle, as she makes sure that the guards don't spot her, knowing what is likely to happen to her if they lay their hands on her. Although Athena and her mom, Lisa had warned her to stay miles away from the royal castle so she won't get herself into trouble, but deep inside her, she so much wants to go see for herself. Besides, there's nothing bad in trying to explore the castle, right? 

She finally manages to sneak into the royal castle, and can't help admiring its beauty. The castle is the most beautiful eyesight she has ever seen, and the more she goes farther, the more she feels the need to check everything out. 

Unconscious of how far she has gone, she proceeds to the door that's slightly ajar, just ahead of her. 

"Just this last one and I'll go back home," She says to herself after she peeps around and realizes that there's no guard on duty. Pulling the door open enough to take her, she peeks in and her mouth drops open in shock. Here she was, thinking that the door would probably lead to a room, little did she know that another beautiful sight will welcome her in. It's a fountain with a river. 

"Wow!" She curves her mouth as she stares around the blooming flowers and the falling water. She can't help admiring the beauty in front of her, and she plucks out a pink lotus flower. Having the beautiful and sweet scent of the flower caress her nose, the sound of the water splash coming from nowhere pulls her attention, and she tilts her head in the direction to see a river that has beautiful white stones arranged around it. 

"Wow! So many things to feed my eyes," She chuckles softly as she walks ahead to have a feel of the water. Standing on one of the stones, she removes her long white blouse and lets it fall freely down her body, leaving her with a short skirt and white clothes that's tied around her chest to cover her chest up. 

About to dip her leg in the water, she stops abruptly and her eyes suddenly widen in shock as someone pops out of the water with his back facing her. For some seconds, she feels her heartbeat stops, and the world seems to stop revolving for seconds as she stares at the creature in the water. Although he's not facing her, she needs no one to tell her that this man is heavenly cute. His skin is smooth and dripping wet, and his thick black long, and curly hair is soaked in water dripping down his neckline. As his fingers rake his wet hair, her breath hitches and she slowly clenches her fists beside her as she gulps down the sudden lump that forms in her throat. Although she's just getting to see the back and the upper side of him, but he has the most perfect body shape that can drive any woman to the edge of craziness. 

Snapping out of her thoughts and realizing that she's almost naked, she quickly picks up her gown and hurries to hide behind the tree to shade her. She breaths hard a couple of times before she finally peeks out from the tree, and her stomach grumbles seeing him standing on the side of the river now, having just his brief on, and facing the tree where she's hiding. 

Now that he's facing her, she finally has all the time to drool at him and know what he looks like. Her eyes marvel at his perfectly toned abs, his broad chest that has his breasts standing firmly with the nipples hard like that of a woman. Her mouth drops open as she drools over his sexy and wet pink lips, but she tries not to think of anything stupid. He has long eyelashes, thick eyebrows, and a pointed nose to compliment his cuteness. He's graced in all perfection. 

"Wow!" She curves her lips as she admires him. But, who is this man? Where's he from, because it's obvious that he can't be from this planet. He's too handsome to be from here. 

"Do you know the punishment of peeking at a naked opposite gender?" His voice even sounds sexy and domineering. She wants to admire his voice also but realizing that this man just caught her, her heart sinks into her stomach. Her heart beats rapidly as she presses her back hard against the tree as she prays silently that he's not referring to her, even when it's obvious that it's only the two of them in the garden. 

"Don't let me come there to get you," He speaks up again, and she finally steps out of her hiding place, but thankfully that she's already dressed up. 

His mouth drops open in shock at the sight that welcomes him. It's his first time seeing such a beauty. His eyes scrutinize her thick black lengthy hair that has some strands on her forehead, and the imagination of having a handful of it his palms flash through his mind. The spark in her innocent pair of hazel eyes is everything to melt the coldest heart, her smooth looking skin is what any man would worship all day, and her curvy shape is enough to get any man intoxicated. Just who the hell is this beauty? Is she a werewolf or some other creature that he knows nothing about?

"Who are you?" He asks after a few minutes of scrutinizing her with his eye, pretending not to be drooling over her. Damn! Her body is so perfect. 

"Uhm... I'm sorry. I came to have a bath here, and..." She pauses and bites her lip as she was left with nothing to say. 

"And you saw a hot young man having his bath and decided to peek at him, huh?" He asks calmly, but with a scary and dark aura surrounding his voice, as his pale blue eyes roam her body. Of course, he's just trying to save his pride and ego. It'll be a slap on his face to drool at her like that. 

"Forgive me, young man. I think I missed my way here," She rush her words and without waiting for another second, she scurried over to the door and storms out of the fountain, while the young man stares at her until she's out of sight.

'Who is that young lady?' The only question that lingers in his mind...
