She was rushing out when I stopped her "look miss I have to go now that wench will scold me" she said hurriedly

"what is your name?"

"leah" she said as she run out

She bump into someone more like the prince she apologized as he kept staring at her in a daze

Eric kept wondering if the woman he saw is real or a dream , he found ariana his heart kept beating fast at the sight of her ; he pull her close to him and hug her tightly around him

"am so sorry anne" he whispered

"I love you eric"

He smiled as he held me more tighter

Its been a week since the incident ariana kept avoiding Edwin at all cost , he only smirk at her and told her he will make her life more miserable and that he assure her

Things were going smoothly between her and eric and was more happy about her friendship with beth

She kept telling her about her prince charming whom she met at the royal banquet and how she approached him and confess her love

"you must be joking"

"am not , I even pecked him in other to get his attention and love anne

"I wish I could be as confidence as you are"

Ariana saw eric gaze rested on her chest she noticed he was staring her necklace

"it is beautiful"

"yea"

'where did you get it from?"

"my brother" she said sadly

"where Is he now"

"I don't know anymore"

Ariana went to check on leah but when she went to the quarters she couldn't find leah she kept asking but everyone seems to be ignoring her "I heard you were looking for me miss"

I sigh in a relief when I heard the sweet voice "leah"

"what are you doing her?"

"we didn't get to talk much , I want to thank you properly"

Leah led her to a rock a few yards away from the quarters, when they got there she pull her scarf away

"I can see you are now the lady personal maid"

"yea"

"you look beautiful" she said with satisfaction

"you are more beautiful''

"so what are you here for?'' she changed the topic

I unhook the necklace around my neck and step forward before wearing it around her neck as I smiled she stare at me in shock but then I found the green eyes gleaming with hope while staring at the necklace on her neck

"thank you" she said

I smiled after seeing how happy she was , I wish tyler could be here to see how someone this beautiful love the necklace he made , I could feel the necklace was meant for her cause it kept founding her and not me each time it got lost

"I miss you" she said after opening the heart but was shocked when she didn't see the photo in it , I could see disappointment in her eyes as she stare at me

"where is he"

"who?"

"the image in the pendant"

I laughed at her before showing her how she could reveal the picture and how to hide it

"this is amazing , where did you get the necklace from?"

I quickly change the topic as I turn to leave got stopped by her "you didn't even tell me your name"

"ariana but you can call me anne"

She smiled as she waved me goodbye

I was with eric in his chamber when Edwin bang in looking furious as he glare at me and behind him came the king, I pull away from eric embrace , I was scared when I bow at both Edwin and the king before leaving

"I have heard so many rumours about my second son having an affair with the princess personal maid!" he said angrily

"father"

"be quiet"

He was watching as Edwin smiled at him when he was asked to stay away from ariana

Eric found ariana in the garden she was singing her voice was so melodious,he hug her from behind as he rested his head on her shoulder

"is your father still mad at us?"

She felt his lips on her neck he was kissing it as his hands stroke her hair he turn her around and began to kiss her it was deep and passionate kiss

His hands were holding her tightly around her waist as he pull her close to him she could feel his arousal before she knew what was happening his hands began to unfasten her gown revealing her bare skin

Ariana loved the feeling of their naked body laying together she wanted to dress up but he didn't allow her to

"stay like this for a while" he said

She blushed as she look away from him but he held her chin as he kiss her all over again, she felt his arousal again no one has ever touched her the way he do a moment earlier she felt pains as he entered her and she was trembling but his assuring voice made her forget the pains and focused only on him

He began to move his hips as she moan in pleasure ,everything was different this time compared to the first ,she arch her hips upwards she smiled when she heard him moan as he kept thrusting in deep and fast until he shudder at his release she could feel his seeds in her

He was still laying on top her when she caught her breath and whispered she love him between her breath

Eric and I kept meeting in secret and I was shocked when he proposed to me "will you marry me anne?" he said while he was on his kneel

Without thinking twice I screamed yes, he pull me close to him as he kissed me before sliding the ring in my fingers , I became the most happy woman on earth but we got interrupted when one of his trusted man came and told him about the king suspecting they are still seeing each other "I need to go now anne''

Beth kept bothering me about her prince charming and how they have been keeping in touch by sending love letters to each other I smiled at her she has changed a lot after falling in love with her prince charming and how he promised to visit her in two days

"what should I wear before he arrives?"

"you always look good on anything you wear"
