Caspian took a deep breath and entered Aurora's chambers, he had a few weeks left. He would spend it with Aurora as much as he could.

She seemed to be out of it and he knew that she had heard the news about him leaving for war.

"You heard the news."

Aurora nodded, her heart hurt even more when she saw him in person and for it to come from his mouth made it all the more real.

"I will be gone for a few days Aurora, I will come back to you without a single scratch."

"You will be in the front line Caspian!"

"I know Aurora but they don't call me the god of war for nothing."

"That does not make me feel any better, I don't know how I to leave without you. You can't die or else I will kill you myself." A tear fell and she could not hold back anymore.

Caspian lifted her and set her on his lap, "I promise you, I will be back soon."

Aurora still cried, even though his words were trying to soothe her, they still didn't work fully. That night they went to bed holding each other tightly.

    Caspian and Nadia headed outside, "Are you okay Sire?""Yes I am, I have to discuss something with you Nadia.""I am listening sire.""I know it's not fair to you being my wife and I giving another woman attention that is supposed to be going to you. If you want a divorce, I can grant it for you so that you can find a suitable suitor.""I love you Sire, and even if you don't love me back, I will be patient until you feel the same way for me.""I don't want you to waste your time on me Nadia, I had not planned to fall for Aurora. I was happy for you to be my wife but then I ended up falling in love for the first time. I don't want you to spend the remainder of your days being lonely.""I might be slightly alone but waiting for you is worth it, I won't ever feel the same way about someone else the way I feel for you."Caspian sighed, he did not know how to convince Nadia, he did not want to fake anymore as that was draining him."The choice is yours, Nadia, when you are ready someday yo

    Caspian remembered the way Rurina had said his name, when was the last time someone had called him by that name?That made his heart ache as he remembered Aurora, the way she had said his name and the way when he first started to court her, how she would get surprised when he broke her barriers.She was tentative at first and he smiled when he remembered her professing her love for him. Caspian looked at the moon from the jail cell.As long as they were under the same moon they could not be separated. He heard someone calling him and he turned towards the sound, it was Rurina.She motioned for him to come towards him, and he did. She handed him a sweet potato and she rushed away.He sat back down and was thankful for the extra food he had gotten. He ate it in a matter of minutes and he leaned back.His looks had changed drastically, he had callouses on his hands. When he went to sleep he at times would dream of Aurora and he didn’t want to wake up.Yet the next morning would arrive an

    The next morning Caspian woke and he felt dread all over him as he was making love to Nadia, all he could see was Aurora’s face.He had gone through it as he saw Nadia as Aurora. He stood up and made his way to the bath chambers.He sat in the water as he felt guilty after sleeping with Nadia, even though Aurora was fine with it didn’t make it less okay to do that.Aurora was probably waiting for his return and he wanted to tell Nadia’s parents that they wanted to head back but Nadia seemed to be in good spirits and he did not want to ruin that.Days went by and Caspian used every excuse in the book to not sleep with Nadia again, he did not feel like it and only wanted Aurora.Today he was going hunting with Nadia’s father as they needed to bond as men,“When are you planning on having an heir to the throne.”Caspian realized that Nadia’s father wanted insight into their relationship, he could have an heir to the throne with any woman but clearly, they wanted Nadia to be the one who w

    Aurora and Eleanor bowed their heads as they passed in front of her and felt as if her heart was shattered into a million pieces.To make matters worse, she knew they had seen her but they walked past her. When they went past she was frozen in place.Aurora swallowed a lump in her throat,“Eleanor did they just arrive?”Eleanor looked afraid to respond to her, “No, My Lady they arrived yesterday noon.”Aurora nodded and smiled, but she felt far from smiling. She carried on walking and sat by the sun. Her mind kept taking her back to Caspian and Nadia walking hand in hand smiling.A few days passed and tonight it was the dinner with all the concubines and she dreaded it. They were all seated, and Caspian and Nadia walked in hand in hand.She could see that the other concubines were laughing and sneering at her, Aurora was glad that she had sat at the end close to the door.Food was served and everyone was chattering but no one wanted to talk to her, she tried to not let it bother her.

    When she arrived at the hall there was already chatter and laughter. She got in and everyone became quiet.“Sit Aurora, we have been here for some time. I must have gave you the wrong time.” Said Nadia.The other concubines laughed, how mature she thought. Did they want her here so that they could torment her?“Thank you My Lady.” She replied as she sat down.“I forgot, you were a maid before right?” Nadia replied.“Yes I was.”“We are short of staff tonight, so I was wondering if you could serve us, as none of us here have had the experience you have.” Nadia replied smugly.“I can’t.”“Can’t or you wont? I am the princess and future queen, and this is a command unless you want to go against my word.”“Of course not.”“Don’t look at us, we don’t have any experience of being maids.” Hazel added with a smirk on her face.She stood up and went to the kitchen, she took the mead to the dining hall and poured everyone a drink as they laughed blatantly laughed at her.“You are a natural Auro

    Aurora stood in front with the king, queen, Nadia, and the rest of the concubines as they cheered for the soldiers that came back from war, but it was strange. The soldiers weren't cheering or waving at the crowds, they had won so why was there such a somber atmosphereShe could not see Caspian amongst the soldiers, were they shielding him? The soldiers got off their horses and knelt in front of them."We deserve to die My Lord, My Lady.""Where is Caspian." The queen replied with a stern voice."We believe that he is dead, he went to negotiate on his own with the barbarians and never came back. We searched everywhere, and no stone was left unturned but he could not be found.""SEND ALL THE FORCES TO FIND HIM!" the king replied with so much anger in his voice."Right away!"They all dispersed and she told Eleanor that she wanted to be alone, which she respected, it was close to nighttime, as she walked to the forest, and kept walking for a while. There was no one and she sank to the g

    "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. He would not rest until he found her, he would search for her himself.He sat there in so much torment, he had wanted to surprise her of his return after he looked a bit better so that she would not have to worry but that all was for naught.As Caspian sat he tried to not think of the worst that could have happened to her, all he wanted was for to be alive even if it meant she had rewed and had a new life.He just wanted to see her once, just once was enough for him to see her doing well. That was all that he needed.There was a knock on the door

    Douglas got into his room and closed the door, he had calmed down after his meeting with his mother.“You look strained.”“How can I not be Douglas, did you find anything?”Douglas sat down, “Can’t even wait for me to sit down.” He teased him, and this made him realize that he was free.“I will after I……….”“I know Caspian, find Aurora.”“Did you find anything.”Douglas put down a scroll on the table and opened it, it had a lot of writing and drawings on it.“There are seven possible areas that Aurora could have gone and it happened a while back, so they are not many witnesses. 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

    “I want this journey to not end if only we could keep going until we have explored everything.”“That would take a lifetime and even a lifetime is not possible to explore every area.”“That is the whole point Caspian, for this journey to never end.”“I did not think of it that way.”“I have always wanted to go to different places from where I was raised, even our journey back to the palace was a thrill for me as I had not been anywhere besides where I grew up.”“Do you believe that your father might be on the lookout for you?”“No, not all he has never acknowledged my existence and he is not about to start now. 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 had heeded Douglas’s words and he had told Rurina that they would not be stopping until they were in the clear.All he had was faith, and hope that he would find her, he felt sick at the thought of her not being where he thought she was.Only time will tell when he goes to the destination if she is there or not. The day progressed bit by and when noon arrived they were searching for an area where they could eat as they were famished.They stopped by a stream, and the scenery was spectacular, now he could see why Aurora had loved being out here, one did not want to leave.He knew by now that they might be looking for him back at the palace and he hoped that they would believe Douglas.He had left them notes, explaining to them that he needed to breathe as the palace was a bit suffocating for him.

    Evening came and Caspian lay on his bed, but sleep alluded him. He could not find a sweet spot on the bed. He kept on turning but he was not finding a comfortable position.He was not finding it, he got up and got dressed. He went outside and he went back to the forest path that he walked with Aurora.The moon was full tonight and it cast soft light, the breeze was warm, how he would love to walk with Aurora during this moment, he wanted to share it with her.He remembered her words, as long as they were under the same moon they would find their way back to each other.He stood in the middle of the forest, he would never forget the moment when he had turned and saw Aurora walking down to him.Caspian came to realization that he knew where Aurora might be, why had he not thought of it earlier. He went raced back to his chambers and he took out a scroll, he was going to leave soon to go find her.He prayed that she would be where he thought she was. The next morning Caspian summoned Dou

    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

    Nadia’s parents arrived, and he, Nadia and his mother stood in the forefront as they were being welcomed.“Caspian, we never thought we would see you again.” Nadia’s father held him at arms-length.“It is wonderful to see you again Sir.”“No need for formalities, you are my son and I will make your father proud.”Nadia’s mother came up to him and smiled, “Thank you coming back to Nadia, we do not know what would have happened if you would have not been able to return.”“Thank you, I see who Nadia takes after.”Greetings were exchanged and they all made it to the dining area that was prepared, and mead was served as everyone got comfortable.“Before we all have a drink, I would love to raise a toast to my son Caspian who was given back to us and the time when he was most needed. 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
