Aurora jumps out of his arms, and the door to the prison is opened, she and Elliot are released, and the minute she is out Caspian grabs her by the hand and drags her away.

He was walking fast and for every step, he took she had to take two so she could match his steps, and he was not slowing down.

They walked into his villa and he did not respond to anyone that greeted him, when they got to his chambers he dragged her in and let go of her hand and he slammed the door shut.

Aurora looked at the ground, she could not stand to look at him in the present moment that they were in.

"Tell me Aurora! Make me understand."

"I don't know what you want me to say."

"So you think it's fine for you to spend a night with another man?"

"I didn't choose to, I had no choice."

"At least look at me when you say those words and that's an order!"

Aurora lifted her head and looked him in the eye, she did not flinch at his words, her own anger was simmering on the surface.

She could see the hurt in his eyes

    Caspian became enraged when Aurora said she wanted to leave him again, he lost the little composure that had left him as her words pierced her heart.He did not know what had come over him, he grasped her chin and made her look at him, he spoke his heart, she could not leave him and Aurora could not die without his permission.He saw that he was just widening the gap between them, he held her face gently and spoke his heart, asking her what was wrong.When Caspian came to the root of the problem he realized how hurt she was, he thought he wanted to make his parents happy, he pulled her in his arms, but now when he held Aurora he forgot about them and nothing was worth it if she was not with him.He realized when she was gone that his life had no meaning without her, he could only see himself having a future only where she was in it.Her sobs tore at his heart, how had he been so oblivious to the woman he claimed to love? He pulled them to the bed when she stopped crying after a while.

    Caspian made his way back to his chambers, he chuckled in disbelief. He was way over in his head, he got in quietly so that he would not wake her up.He closed the door and sat by the table and he watched her breathe in and out. He sighed, watching her sleep was even something that he loved doing.Was he going to be like this all the time, he even wished that they could leave just as the two of them that's how much he loved being with her and it was unhealthy the path that he had chosen to take.She was everything to him and he did not know how to make it stop.

The maid bowed her head,"What is it with Aurora? Tell me now!""She is sick My Lord and we tried everything."Caspian didn't let her say more as he made his way to her chambers, his heart pounded fast.

She leaned back and watched him work, she was enamored with him.“Do I look that great?” Caspian asked her with a bit of humor in his voice,“Yes, you do.”Caspian looked at her then and raised an eyebrow, “Do I.”She nodded happily,“Stop distracting me, I don’t want to stop my work to lay with you.”“Of course.” She winked at him.He grinned, “I love this side of you.”“Why thank you.”She leaned back,“Aurora, Aurora wake up.”She opened her eyes to see Caspian seated next, “I was getting worried that you have been sleeping for so long. You need to eat.”“What time is it?”“It’s past noon.”Aurora watched Caspian as he took a bowl from the table next to him. When she reached for it from him he withd

    The carriage was on its way as they left Aurora’s villa, he wanted to look back at Aurora but he knew if he did, he would end up getting out of the carriage and staying with her. “Is something bothering you?” “Sorry Nadia, what did you say?” “Is something bothering you? You seem to be really deep in thought.” “Just work that I have to do.” “Don’t be anxious Caspian, my family does not bite.” “I hope not.” Nadia had just called her by his name but he did not feel anything whatsoever when Aurora did, he felt sensations and it made him happy. “I have wanted us to go on a trip as just the two of us, and it seems as if my prayers have been answered.” “Yes this trip is great, and I’m sure you are excited to see your parents.” Nadia nodded, “I am excited to see them all and more so that they get to see the love of my life.” Caspian just nodded once more, he felt bad that Nadia thought of him as the love of her life but he had Aurora in his heart and he wondered if he should come ou

If was searching for it would be to execute me as he would have figured out that I helped you escape. I’m probably labelled a disgrace and a traitor.”“I’m sorry that you did this all to help me.”“It wasn’t to only help you Caspian, it was a way out for me, to have the freedom I have always craved and to be away. I was desperate that I would have gone anywhere but stay there,

    Caspian waited for Douglas to come with Aurora’s friends, he could not go himself as that would raise a lot of speculation.It might also reach his mother and Nadia’s ear, he heard the door open as Douglas led them in, when they saw him they all seemed to be frightened.“You may leave,” Caspian said to Douglas as he went out.“You all don’t have to be anxious, I did not call you all to berate nor to punish you. I wanted to ask about Aurora, and you all don’t have to keep your heads down, you may look at me.”He could see them lift their heads, and their hands were clasped in front of them,“I wanted to ask if you knew where Aurora might be?”They all shook their heads in unison,“Do you have any idea where she could have gone to?”“No, My Lord, before she left, she was ordered to not speak nor see us.”“Who ordered you to do so?”They all were silent at his question and he knew that they were probably afraid if word got out they would get punished.“You do not have to fear anything,”

    Caspian turned and Nadia stood there, “I thought you had retired to your chambers.”“I was waiting for you.”“Is there something worrying you?”“I have been meaning to have a chat about a few things on my mind,” Nadia replied.“Of course.”“Can we do this at your chambers?”“I would rather we go to your chambers.”Nadia seemed to be overjoyed with his suggestion, “I will lead the way then.”They walked in her chambers and he saw that it was different but he really would not know as he spent most of the time at his chambers or at Aurora’s.He sat by the table, and she sat too, “I know we haven’t had much time to ourselves as you have urgent matters to attend to as the king but I was hoping we could bond again.”Caspian was too tired for all this, why could they not discuss it in the morning?“How so?”“We can select activities that we love and we share them with each other,” Nadia replied.“That’s a sound plan.”“Do you have any suggestions?” Caspian could see that she was hopeful, did

A toast to Caspian.”They all raised their glasses after Nadia’s father’s speech, “Cheers.”The night set off, and there was so much chatter, the room was full of guests yet he felt alone, sad and the mead was

    Caspian walked side by side with Rurina during the night festival, he looked around but he was very distant. His mind and heart were on Aurora, he really needed to be reunited with her.“Look! Look!” Rurina said excitedly.She was looking at some sweets, they had them in the palace but probably did not know about them. He went over to the stall and got her some which she stuffed her mouth.“So delicious.”Caspian laughed at her excitement, then the next stall ahead of them was one with beauty accessories.Rurina was having fun in selecting one by one,“Sire.”Caspian turned, and Nadia was standing there with the concubines,“I didn’t know you were attending.” Nadia carried on.“I wasn’t but Rurina wanted to come so I came with her.”“Rurina we are having a concubine lunch for you tomorrow at noon.” Nadia said to her.Rurina nodded, “Alright.”Rurina took his hand before they carried on talking and she was dragging him away, she was very strong, no doubt about that.They bought some la

The other matter is that Aurora left wearing a cloak most probable.”Caspian nodded, he would not give up, “Anything else?”“Aurora seemed to have not taken much, and it seems as if she just disappeared without a trace.”“When did you find out when she was banished?”“After some moons had passed, I had tried to look into it but those who did would be harshly punished.”“Did you notice anything unusual to the we

    "No, she just left and you weren't here to protect her." Elliot snapped."When did she leave?""Two years ago, and no-one has heard from her." Elliot replied in a hurt manner."Do her friends know?""No, she was banished from interacting from us and they turned her into a servant. The last time I saw her, she had dark circles under eyes and did not look like the same Aurora I once knew."Caspian clenched his fist, he walked back to his villa.
