Aurora’s POV
.
After attending to my mother’s request I asked my handmaiden to prepare my room and arrange some food.
There’s something about that girl that’s drawing me closer to her and I just can’t help it.
She’s the first person I’ll ever get this feeling for and I really want to get to know her more.
I arrived back at the feast but I couldn’t find her, I looked around hoping to see her but I couldn’t.
‘ has she gone?, I thought I told her to stay’ I thought then I saw the man she was with earlier.
It seems he’s leaving the feast as well so I asked my maid to fetch him and she went to him.
A while later they both came back and the look on his eyes shows that of anger and I wonder why.
” My princess” he said bowing.
“What’s your name?” I asked.
” It’s Leo, my princess” he replied.
” Leo, I saw you with the champion a while ago…..where has she gone to because I remember telling her to stay” I said.
” A while after you left the prince’s guards came to fetch her and she yet to be back” he answered.
” The prince?…..you mean my brother?”
” Yes princess, I know all about your brother and I know what he’s capable of doing”
” He’s misusing his power on us because he’s royalty, he can’t just have his way with anyone he likes”
” We men in this city can’t even get ourselves a woman because they all went crazy over the prince”
” It shouldn’t be like that your highness, you don’t treat your subjects that way” he concluded.
I noticed he was very hurt with my brother’s behavior and he can’t do anything about it.
” I’m sorry about that, you can leave now….. I’ll see what I can do about it” I replied then he left.
” Niklaus, why are you such a dog?” I muttered angrily as I made my way to his chamber.
” I’m going to have to kill that boy one day if he don’t stop this foolish act, what a shameless boy”

Klaus’s POV
.
Today, I’m having my way with her whether she likes it or not but she’s making this h-rder.
Seeing her fight in the arena makes me believe she’s a strong and tough one which will definitely satisfy my high libido.
If I wait one more day I might not get this chance anymore and I’m going to hate myself for it.
” Are you having ear problem?……I said strip” I said again as she was staring at me.
” I’m sorry my prince but I can’t” she replied.
” Maybe I’m not clear enough but It’s not a request or a suggestion, it an order” I said sternly.
” I’m sorry my prince but I’ll have to disobey you this first time” she said which is the first time any woman will disagree with me.
” Did I hear you just right?….I order you to take off your clothes” I said again starting to get angry.
” I’m sorry, I can’t do that” she replied.
” Guards, Guards” I called out and after a minute five of them entered.
” My Lord”
” Strip now or I’ll have these men strip you unclad and also have their way with you…..now choose” I said and she smiled.
” I choose none…….you will have to kill me before they get to touch me” she said looking straight into my eyes.
” Boys, remove every garment on her right now” I ordered and they made to do that then my sister entered.
” Any of you dare lay your filthy hands on her, I assure you that will be the last time you make use of that hand” she said.
” Now get out” she said and the Guards left.
” What is the meaning of this?…… are you crazy?” I said to her and she came closer and pulled at my ear.
” Aaaaahhh……stop it” I yelled in pain.
” Aren’t you ashamed of yourself….. forcing yourself on a woman” she said still pulling my ear h-rder.
” Stop it or I’ll report to father” I shouted at her.
” You do that, and I’ll report to him as well about you forcing yourself on a woman” she replied.
” Stupid girl” I muttered.
” If I ever see you anywhere around her or you double crossing her, I won’t just pull your ears, I might as well cut it off” she said before releasing it.
” Get your raging hormone under control” she said.
” You’re crazy” I said to her.
” Let’s go, Amelia” she said and they left with the girl grinning in mockery.
” Crazy girls……. I’m not done with you Amelia, I always get what I want……and I will get you” I said.

Amelia’s POV

I find it surprising that the princess would do that to her brother for my sake and I’m glad she did.
If she had stayed a while longer I might end up hurting the prince and his guards.
” Thank you for what you did back there my princess” I said.
” Oh you’re welcome, I think it’s time I started putting that boy in his place” she replied.
” I just want you to know that you really don’t have do that for me, I can take care of myself” I said.
” Of that I have no doubt, but how many of my brother’s men can you take down by yourself?”
” Besides hurting the prince is a great offense in the kingdom and you will be punished”
” And even if you managed to escape you will be a wanted fugitive and will be hunted,…….”
“I believe you don’t want to be on the run for the rest of your life looking over your shoulder” she added.
She did have a point and also one of the reasons I’m glad she intervene.
” I guess I really owe you alot” I said and she smiled.
” It’s alright, I’m glad you didn’t give in to his crazy desire….you will be the first person to deny him that” she said.
” Well, I’m not like most girls…… I’m different…I believe in right and wrong” I said.
” I can see that which is why I like you already….. you’re so different in many ways” she said.
” Thank you my princess” I replied.
” You said you wish to have a word with me…..what do you wish to say?” I asked.
” Actually, I just want us to be close as friends, I just want you around me as a friend” she said which took me by surprise.
” You want me as your friend?” I asked.
” Yes, and this is the first time I’ll be asking of that, I just need someone I could talk to” she said.
” You might think I’m the princess and I have everything but I don’t, I’m very lonely in this place” she said.
” I need someone to talk to, someone I get connected with and I believe that’s you because I feel connected with you than I’ve ever been with anyone” she said.
” I’m honoured for you to say that My princess” I said.
” Please Amelia, I want us to be friends so you call me by my name” she said which surprised me more.
” I’m not sure if that’s proper, the king and your mother would never allow that” I said.
” You don’t have to worry about them…. you’re under my protection and no one can get to you not even my brother” she said.
” Okay Aurora, friends” I replied and she smiled hugging me.
” I have to go now and rest for tomorrow” I informed.
” Why don’t you stay here with me, I know my brother very well he might come after you” she said.
” But my friend is out there waiting for me” I said.
” You mean Leo?” She asked and I nodded.
” He left angrily when he couldn’t wait any longer and he seems hurt” she said.
” Oh, he must have gotten the wrong idea ” I replied.
” Well, you can explain yourself tomorrow so will you stay with me tonight?” She asked more like pleading.
” Sure”
” Great…… let’s go to my room” she said dragging me along with her.
” Who is the guy anyway?, You two are pretty close…..your lover?” She asked and I smiled.
” he’s more like an admirer” I replied.
” Well, he’s cute and you two look perfect for each other” she said.
.
We entered her room and I was utterly astounded with the interior of the room and how the flowers adorned the room.
” Your place is beautiful” I complimented.
” Thank you….. c’mon let’s take our bath before eating” she said and I followed her as she left.
I think everything she said is true, maybe she did need a friend because she seems happy having me around.
We got the pool which was decorated with lotus flower which also add to fragrance of the place.
She shed off her clothes right in front of me which is the first time I’ll be seeing another lady unclad.
I smiled then follow suit and went into the pool with her and heaved a deep breath as the water touched my skin.
” Why don’t you wash my back first and I will wash yours after” she said and I picked the sponge and went behind her and started scrubbing.
” Can I ask you a question?” I asked.
” Sure, go on anything” she replied.
” Why is your brother like that?….. he’s the heir to the throne he should learn to lead well” I said.
” Believe me, there’s nothing I haven’t said to him but he ignored everything, sometimes I wish I had a sister so we can join hands to beat him up” she replied.
” I heard you had a sister” I said and she turned to me.
” Where did you hear that?” She asked.
” I heard someone talking about it, I’m sorry if I spoke out of turn….I shouldn’t have said that” I said.
” No it’s alright, I just don’t like talking about it……and to answer your question, Yes….I had a sister” she answered.
” What Happened to her?” I asked even though I know what happened but I’m not sure to believe what I heard.
” She was sick and she died, it hurt me even though I never met her” she said.
” It’s understandable after all she’s your sister” I said.
” Can I also ask you a question?” She asked.
” Okay” I replied.
” Why did you challenge Edgar?…..have you not heard anything about him?” She asked.
” Actually, I did, everyone told me about him and how dangerous he is, including my father” I replied.
” Then why did you do it….why did you go ahead to challenge him?” She asked concernedly.
” I don’t know, but it’s too late to change my mind now….. I’ll have to fight him in the arena tomorrow” I said.
” It’s not too late, I can speak to Father on your behalf, he will listen to me” she said.
” You don’t have to, that will make me look like a coward before everyone” I said.
” Who cares?…..so far you’re still alive, please you don’t have to, I don’t want you to get hurt” she said.
” It’s okay Aurora, I’ll be fine……I promise” I replied and wondered why everyone is so afraid of him.
” It’s okay, let me wash your back now” she said collecting the sponge from me and I turn my back.
” Oh the heavens, what is this on your back? ”
