"Announce me" Caspian's uncle, Sire Onyx said the moment he stopped in front of Caspian's sleeping chamber. He made to go in when Rapheal who stood by the front of the door suddenly stepped in front of him. Sire Onyx frowned at the audacity."How dare you step in front of me" He glared at Raphael."I'm sorry, Sire" Raphael apologized "But I'll have to request you go back now. You cannot meet his Highness right now""And why?" Sire Onyx fumed "Why on earth can't I meet my own nephew?!" He demanded "I order you to open this door right now! I have to meet with Caspian!""His Highness is sick and is getting some rest now after taking his medication. He's asked no one to be let in while he rest. In fact, he wouldn't be coming out any time soon till he feels better.""His coronation is barely two days away!" Onyx remarked "How can you be telling me he's sick now! Have you called a doctor?""Yes, the Royal doctor had checked up on him earlier. He specifically asked for his Highness to take r
Xylah rested her back on the door after shutting it on Ian's face. Her hands rested on her chest, she felt her heart thud against her chest. What was going on? Why did she feel this way whenever she met this Ian of a guy?Speaking of Ian, she heard his voice speak from behind the door "Oh milady, is this anyway to receive your new bodyguard?""Body guard?" Xylah frowned. Oh yes, that was right. Ian was her 'supposed' bodyguard. She had almost forgotten about that "Won't you open the door for me, milady?" His baritone voice called out again making Xylah frown. Seriously, as a guard, he's got quite the nerve to speak to her in such a manner. Annoyed, she pulled the door open."I thought I told Aeon I wasn't interested in getting a bodyguard so why are you here?"Ian smirked "Was that the reason you shut the door on my face like that?""What do you want?" Xylah ignored his question "I already said I don't want a bodyguard!" Xylah felt frustrated "Go back and tell your commander I said I
Eulla stood in front of her mirror as she applied a bright red lipstick. Once done, she smacked her lips and put the lipstick back in her purse. Her hands moved to straighten her blonde hair which fell in waves down her shoulders, she flashed a smile"All set" She blew a kiss to her reflection, sprayed perfume again before cat-walking out of the room, her heels clanking against the cold tiles."Mum?" She called out as she descended the stairs "I'm all ready, I'll be leaving now""Eulla" Jane came out the kitchen with a look of disapproval on her face "Your dad will be back today, he won't be happy if he returns and doesn't find you at home""Oh mother" Eulla rolled her eyes "You know I have to go. The girls and I are finally meeting up after a long time, I can't afford to miss out on this. What's wrong with me wanting to have some after everything that has happened, especially with the stupid rumors about that stupid bitch going round town?""Eulla—""Enough, Mum" Eulla cut her off
"Just come with, it'll be fun, trust me" Ian tried to convince Xylah for the hundredth time."Ian," Xylah sighed and pulled the jacket Ian got her earlier closer to her body. It was kind of chilly out here" I told you I don't wanna go to any fair" The frown on her face was evident " We've had enough fun for the evening""We haven't even—" Ian tried protesting but Xylah would have none of it "We're already at a mall, you've gotten me a jacket and we've watched a movie, that's enough. We should head back before anyone realizes i'm gone. You can get into huge trouble for this" They were both walking out of the movie theater now."Oh c'mon, you really should try to relax" Ian didn't seem bothered in the slightest "Nothing's going to happen, I won't get in trouble" He sipped the rest of the drink in his hand"You speak as if you're the crown prince or something" Xylah muttered but Ian heard her clearly, he choked on his drink."Hey? Are you okay?" Slight worry crossed Xylah's face hearin
Eulla stood in the middle of the large mall, the breath in throat hitched and her jaw slightly dropped. Just a second ago, she was about to curse at this person who ruined her expensive clothes but now as her eyes met the ocean blue ones staring back at her, everything around her seem to have come to a stop."Are you okay?" His baritone like voice snapped her back to reality. "Huh?" Eulla blinked, her senses returning to her "Ah, yes" She replied and laughed awkwardly allowing her eyes take in the sight of the man before her. Looming over her at over 6ft tall, well– built body and a mysterious face which was hidden under a black eye mask, Eulla couldn't help but feel herself drawn to this mystery man.' Who is this man?' She wondered. There was something about him that mesmerized Eulla. Was it the way his hair fell down the sides of his face? Was it the way his blue orbs sparkled with so much intensity? Was it the powerful aura surrounding him or was it simply the way he stood with a
Excitement bubbled in Eulla's veins as she rushed towards the exit, a big smile on her face. Her heart tingled from the meeting with that stranger. This was the first time she felt this way, no man had ever made her feel this way before, Eulla knew without doubt the masked man was a special one. Crazy how she met someone today and she's already feeling all giddy for him. Eulla blushed at the realization that she might finally be in love. She couldn't wait to tell her girls. Her footsteps hurried as she sighted the exit. Just when she was about to leave the building, someone crashed into her yet again. Eulla yelped as she lost her footing and crashed to the ground."I'm– I'm sorry!" A thin voice cried out."The fuck!!" Eulla hissed in pain. Her head sprung up to curse at the person only to be met with the biggest shock of her life. Eulla's face paled, her throat went dry and her eyes turned as wide as saucers, as they stared into the green eyes which held an equal amount of shock."Xy
"Let go of me!" Chills of horror ran down Xylah's spine as one of the men pulled her. She yanked away and took several steps back, her being soaked in fear.Loud laughter erupted around her as another one grabbed her yet again causing her to screech."Leave me! Let go of me!" Xylah cried and yanked away again eliciting another round of laughter. The men seemed to be enjoying her little act."Don't you dare," She mustered the bravest voice she could as she saw another reached out for her "Touch me""Uh lala" One shuddered ",Seems we've got a fiery one for the night" "I said don't touch me!" Xylah slapped his hand away, he growled "Hey girl! You better save all that energy for later, you'll need alot of it for screaming" The men bursted into laughter once more.Xylah's throat went dry at the thought of what these monsters were going to do with her. She was surrounded, with no where to run to. Her cries for help earlier were utterly useless, she was in a dark alley with no other soul i
Xylah's hands covered her lips, the shock clearly written all over her face. Her feet moved as she took steps back shaking her head in disbelief at what she had just done. Her shocked eyes met with Ian's and she shook her head."I– I" She stuttered "I didn't mean to– I didn't– i didn't–" The words refused to form, she clasped her hands over her mouth again. "I'm sorry" The words were barely a whisper but she was sure Ian heard them because he took a step forward."No!" She blurted out, the tears started to pool on her eyes once more."Don't come close to me. I– I didn't realize– I didn't know what I was doing" She panicked, her trembling hands half covered her face."I'm sorry" She apologized once more and before Ian could say another word, Xylah dashed past him."Xylah!" He yelled chasing after her. "Xylah stop!" Catching up to her was no big deal, his large hands wrapped around her arms as he pulled her towards himself."What do you think you're doing?!" He growled turning her to fa
