In Reine's room, he was still laying on his bed, thinking about her, but he knew if he kept on staying here, he won't have anything else to do rather than just stay in his room thinking about her all day, so he decided, he won't stay here anymore, he had to get these thoughts out of his head, he stood up, he took his dark cloak and left the room heading outside his chambers. On his way, he met with Raya, he saw her carrying the tray coming from the girl's room. as soon as Raya saw Reine, she bowed to him and greeted him. Reine looked at the empty plates on the tray, he asked.
"Did... She eat enough?"
"Yes your highness, she ate well, from how she devour the food on her plate, it seems like she didn't eat for days, but she's all well now"
Reine let out a breath,he was relieved that the girl ate and she's well now
"What is she doing now?"
" She's resting on her bed your highness"
" Alright, listen, I want you and Leen to take good care of her, I don't want her to be outside of her bedroom at all times, unless, if she's with me. But rather than that, I don't want her outside of her bedroom, if I see her one day outside of her bedroom, you'll be the one getting in trouble and not her.... Understand? "
" Yes your highness"
Reine nodded at her and left. As soon as he left, Raya looked at him and asked
"Why did he have to be so good looking and yet so scary?..... Sweet heavens... " Raya shaked her head and headed to the kitchen.
He went to royal court yard, he saw his men already in training, and them as soon as they saw there prince, they went to him and bow to him.
"How was your night your highness?"
Roman asked while smiling, the prince looked at him with a killer glare and Roman knew what his highness meant. He looked at their leader Ednan and asked
"Has Leith come back yet?"
"No your highness...."
Leith landed on the ground, Reine looked at him.
"Your highness"
Leith bowed to him, he raised and gave him the feedback about his look out.
"Your highness, there's no more creatures beside the monsters and the beasts in the dessert nor the forest."
" And the monsters and beasts?"
" The beasts are headed to the north of the forest while the monsters are headed to the east, there are non close to the walls your highness"
Reine was satisfied, then he looked at him with curious eyes and ask.
"Did you find anything in the dessert or forest like.... A carriage, or.... Clothes , dead horses, human remains? "
" The only human remains in the forest are the old ones your highness, I didn't find any new one, and as for carriages and clothes, I also found non your highness"
The prince looked at Leith as he answered him and he could tell he ain't lying nor deceiving him. As soon as he heard about his report, he wondered 'then how did she get in the forest alive as a mere human? And that too alone? ' these were the questions that no matter how much he asked himself, he could never get the clear answer. Then he let out a sigh and looked at Leith
"Alright, if anything comes up reported by the others then inform me"
" Yes your highness"
Reine turned and left without saying a word to the others, Leith looked at his highness with a curious look in his eyes as he went closer to the others
"Hey guys any idea why his highness asked me about fresh human remains and clothes and whatever he asked me after that?"
" He bought a prisoner yesterday"
Thor answered him, Leith looked at them in shock as even him couldn't believe his highness bought a prisoner.
"Don't bother acting so shocked, that was over yesterday"
Thor told him again.
" How did that even happen I mean..... "
" Do you know what's more shocking than that? "
" He bought a girl"
Leith was even more surprised as he looked at the others with wide eyes. He looked again at his highness and asked
"Does this mean the prince's manly desires has awaken?"
Ednan slap Leith at the back of his head upon he asked a that question. Roman and the others couldn't stop laughing at what Leith said. "Ouch!!!" He yelled
"Why did you hit me Ednan?!"
"Because you ask stupid questions"
" F*ck that hurts" Leith cursed.
" But Ed, you know what Leith asked makes lots of Sense" raven said as he stared at his highness direction.
"After these many years, his manly desires finally awaken after seeing that girl, isn't it Ed?"
Raven asked. Dean remained quiet and only listened to the unimaginable things his fellow vampires were assuming. Leith looked at Ed and told him.
"You see, even he thinks that what am saying makes lots of Sense"
" Because his as brainless as you are"
"Excuse me?"
Raven asked when Ed said that to Leith,
"The point is, I don't think the prince bought the girl for his own personal pleasure, he bought her for a reason, maybe the girl has something which his highness need, or even information"
Ed suggested to the others, the others thought about it and he was right, the prince did bought her for a reason, but that reason non of them was aware of, even their genius leader Ed.
"Anyway, let's get back to training"
"Aye aye" raven answered as they left returning to the courtyard.
Reine went to the streets of the city, he was looking for Leah, as he passed through the streets, he felt people's eyes starring at him, he could see the curiousity in their eyes as they stared at him. Well technically, he can't blame them, everyone knows that the prince is against the selling of creatures caught in the dessert and forest, though he never said anything about it. His highness never bought any creature which was sold at the auction but yesterday, he even went against lord Henry who's known as one of the most powerful of lords of mirrormoor. So ofcourse, he can't clearly blame the people for starring at him like that. He searched the streets for Leah but he couldn't find her, so he thought 'if she's not in the streets then she must be there.... '
Reine turned and went to that one place where he thought Leah was, the garden. And when he got there, she was there, sitting down on the smooth grass while throwing stones at the lake. The stones in mirrormoor were not normal as any other stones outside of mirrormoor, the stones were dark purple just like the crystals in mirrormoor, when they are thrown in the lake, they form beautiful waves of rainbow colours with a magnificent shimmers. These stones were only found in mirrormoor and if the outside world found these stones, to them, they'll be more valuable than diamonds. Leah threw another stone in the lake but with so much force that the stone ended up only sinking below the lake.
"That's a terrible throw Leah, I think I can do better than that"
