Stored innocence

I trained almost the whole day. I didn't see Sam after what happened in the morning. But I didn't dwell on it too much since I sparred with Rufus.

The results? I never stood a chance.

I plopped down on the nearby tree as I watched Rufus placed the wooden swords back. He's too strong.

A sigh escaped my mouth. Shaking my head in disappointment.

If the fifth prince came here to escort us, that only meant we'd really have to set off. He had planned to delay our wedding for a year.

Fortunately, Sam was very understanding and supportive. I actually thought he'd be very displeased about it. It only took a kiss to placate him.

The thought of it unconsciously made me giggle. He's so adorable… but sometimes he's very frightening. But that didn't matter.

"Fifth prince, huh?" I muttered as the image of Klaus crossed my mind.

Slowly, I raised my hand. Staring at my palm hands that held lakresha this morning.
