kiss

Leah's eyes widen as soon as she heard that. she knew who it was, she'd recognize that voice anywhere, she knew it was Reine. but she didn't look back, she was mad at him, very mad at him, and Reine felt her discomfort. he went closer to her and sat beside her and called out

"Leah"

he saw her rubbing something of her face, that's when he grew suspicious and worried , he carresed her face and turn it towards himself..... tears, tears were falling beneath her eyes, Reine knew why she was like this, he knew why she was in tears, and it breaks his heart realizing that he has no way of comforting her concerning that matter

"You heard about what happened yesterday, didn't you? "

upon hearing that, Leah looked at him, her a eyes wide as drops of tears fell beneath her eyes, the she looked away and told him

"Go away"

"I won't, not when you're like this"

"Reine go away"

" am not going anywhere Leah, and who do you think you are to chase a. prince away, I can stay anywhere I want with whoever I want"

"Then am leaving"

Leah stood and wanted to leave when Reine held her hand and pulled her back down

" you're not going anywhere Leah"

"why don't you just go to that girl and leave me alone?"

"because right now I want to stay with you Leah and not her"

" you,..... "

" Leah if you keep on acting stubborn then I'll be mad at you for the rest of the week"

Leah said nothing upon hearing Reine saying that. Reine sigh and told her

" Leah, I know you are mad at me about me buying that girl, and the reason why you're pushing me away like this is because you think I already slept with that girl, but the truth is, I haven't. I haven't even seen her since last night forget about touching her."

Leah wiped her tears away and asked him

" Really? you haven't touched her?"

Reine shook his head. a bright smile came on Leah's face and then, she hugged him, Reine smiled and hugged her back, he embrace her tightly in his arms which made Leah feel pleased. Reine knew that Leah loved him dearly, she loved him more than anything in this world and if it was possible, she would even give up her life for him. but Reine knew that, if he didn't explain things to this little girl of his, then she would be heartbroken, that's why Reine decided to clear things today before anything happens to his sweet Leah. After awhile, he let go of her and asked her

"where did you heard these news from, about me buying the girl?"

" it's all over mirrormoor your highness, if not in the streets, I would surely hear it back at home "

" I see, Leah, are you that hurt about me spending the night with the girl? "

Leah looked at him, her cheeks were red with the embarrassment she felt upon hearing that question. then she looked away and nodded her head.

" Do you love me that much Leah? "

Leah shut her eyes tightly as she felt butterflies in her stomach and her face turning red, then she nodded again as she shut her eyes tightly. Reine sigh and called her

"Leah, look at me"

Leah's face was getting more red now as she heard him calling out again

"Leah i said look at me... are you going to disobey my orders again?"

Leah quickly turned to him and shook her head

"No your highness!!!!!"

Reine smiled and caressed her cheeks, then he told her

"Leah I know you love me, you love me more than I could ever imagine but..... Leah,

I can't be with you, you're too young to settle down with me, you haven't even see the world that is beyond your eyes, am not the one for you my sweet angel as to me, I can never look at you as the same way you look at me, I need you to understand that"

"its because of her isn't it?"

she asked him this question as she looked in his eyes, Reine's heart burned as he had this question from her because he knew he would break her heart by that answer he'll give to her. but he had to tell her the truth. for how long will he lie to her, he can't forever keep her hopes up tht one day they'll end up together, he had to tell her the truth. and that's when he gathered himself and told her

"yes, it's because of her"

Leah's tears fell again when she heard that painful truth from him, she knew this would be the answer for her question, but she still asked hoping that it wouldn't turn out to be this way, but it deed, though she was young, she was able to understand why the prince did what he did. why he decided to buy her that day and make her his. he too has desires, though he never shows them, he too desired someone, someone who he never saw in mirrormoor, but when that girl came, maybe he saw the one he desires in her, and that's why he decided to buy her that night and make her his. Leah hugged his highness in tears and told him

"I know your highness, I know you love her, and I knew that one day you'd tell me this bitter truth and I prepared myself for this moment but then why? why does it hurt so much? "

Leah tighten her grip on Reine's clothes and poured her tears out, feeling her hugging him this tightly, he too tighten his hug and embrace her, he swinged from sides to side to calm her down and then he told her.

"I don't like seeing you like this my sweet angel but if crying will make you feel better then cry, don't hold back, cry in my embrace "

and Leah did as she was told. she cried in his embrace while Reine hugged her tightly.

" though I cannot love you as much as you love me but I promise, I'll love you and protect you my sweet angel, I'll always be here for you if you need someone to rely on and make you feel better, I'll always be here for you my sweet angel, always"

Leah smiled upon hearing his highness saying that, she smiled and slowly loosen her grip on his cloth and raised her face to face him

"then can I ask you a favour your highness?"

"I can't see why not, go ahead"

" please kiss me your highness "

Reine got shocked upon hearing that question, he looked Leah and he saw that she wasn't kidding. but when Leah saw how shocked he looked like, she quickly shook her head and told him

"your highness... I... I always wanted ...my first kiss to..... be with you and that's why I... I asked this favour from you... but it's okay if you don't want to..... "

before she could finish her sentence. Reine held her chin and raised her face to face him. then he turned his face aside and went closer to her and suddenly, Leah felt his lips on her lips. she was shocked and..... happy.

so happy that she could feel the butterflies in her stomach again. and then, she closed her eyes and feel the moment, Reine started kissing her, he sucked her lower lip gently and touched it with his tongue, then he let go and sucked her upper lip and did the same thing with her upper lip. he went ahead with this rhythm and let go of her, then he turn his head to the other side and kissed her again. he remembered tht this girl was still a kid, awaking her woman desires would bring nothing but trouble to her, and so he kissed her gently and didn't allow his tongue to touch hers.... then he felt her trying to get her tongue in his mouth. he went back a little and told her

"I agreed to kiss you because you requested me to do so but please, don't bring your tongue closer to my own as am afraid of what will happen next"

Leah understood. she nodded and Reine kissed her and sucked her lips once more.
