"You! What are you doing here?" I screamed, covering myself.
"I came for you," He said that as if it made complete sense.
"I don't want to see you. Go away," Instead of going away as I had wished he would, he walked into the river, slowly trudging towards my showering self.
"I said go away!" I shouted, turning away from him as if that would help but he didn't heed my words.
"I know you did," He replied, a small smirk on that handsome face that I had grown to both love and hate.
"Then why aren't you going away?" I asked, now beginning to take slow steps back as he got closer.
"Because I came to see you and I'm not going anywhere until I see you," Was that supposed to be flattery? Why don't I feel flattered then?
"If I say so myself, I think you've seen too much of me," I mumbled and he seemed pleased by my words which only frustrated me further.
"Too much of you is never enough for me. The more you show, the more I want," Now I felt flattered.
I turned around to look at him but it was too late, feeling a strong grip on my bare waist, I was heaved into the air as he carried me in his arms, pushing us both back against a rock as I gulped back a surprised scream.
"What do you want?" I finally asked the question he'd been patiently waiting to hear and he didn't waste another second to answer, grey eyes glinting with underlying mischief.
"I want you,"

Once Upon A Crown

Walking around the palace was a fun pass-time of mine that I had developed. It seemed like such a waste since this palace was so beautiful, Val told me that people had hand-crafted the walls themselves and it had taken years. 


It was such a pretty palace with people only glancing over the details. I liked to spend my time looking into the art and the paintings on the ceiling of the main hall. 


I was doing that right now with workers hurriedly rushing around me, getting ready for tomorrow's ball which I was slightly nervous for. 


Turning the corner, I noticed a familiar, unwelcoming face. Gosh, I had almost completely forgotten about this woman. 


"You!" She spat as soon as she saw me. 


"You remember me?" I asked, surprised to say the least. 


"Of course I remember you- The island girl with no manners," I bit my lip to prevent myself from spouting any words that she'll definitely dislike.
