Chapter 137 A Jealous Crown Prince (2/2)
I chuckled lightly. The thought of her loving me calmed me down.
”Yes, I can be jealous. This is a normal thing when loving someone, I guess.” I said. ”But I don't have to let this jealousy be in the way of our relationship.”
'I can deal with this jealousy.' I thought to myself.
I have strolled a little far now. I turned back and traced my steps back to Alicia's courtyard.
”Your highness.” It was Dimitri's voice from the shadows.
”What is it Dimitri?” I stopped in my tracks and asked.
”Are you going to the princess' quarters?” Dimitri emerged from the shadows and gave a slight bow of his head. He knows that I frequently visit Alicia in her quarters at night.
”Yes I am. What of it?” I asked in confusion.
”Well, your higness. The princess is currently in your quarters.” Dimitri said with a shy tone.
”My quarters?!” I was shocked. Why would Alicia be in my living quareters this time of night?
”Yes your higness. The princess' familiar helped her sneak in unnoticed. By the time the shadow guards around the area noticed her, she was already in your quarters.” Dimitri said. ”I apologize for my subordinates incapabilites. Please punish me accordingly.”
”No need.” I simply said. Alicia's familiar Snow is capable of sneaking to places unnoticed. With her powers cloaking Alicia, no one can really detect her. ”I will head towards my quarters immediately.”
”Yes sir.” Dimitri bowed and blended in the shadows once more.
I hurriedly walked towards my own courtyard. Knowing that Alicia was inside my quarters waiting for me made me excited that my heart was thumping fast.
Once inside the building, I rushed towards my quarters. I navigated the halls faster than I have anticipated and reached the door of my quarters in no time.
I stopped right in front of my door and inhaled deeply. After exhaling, I held the door knob and gently turned it. The doors opened, and my dark room was seen. The room was silent, the only illumination was the light of the full moon coming from the balcony door that is opened.
I walked inside and closed the door behind me. I scanned my room, searching for her. And there, on top of my huge bed she laid. The curtains from the balcony door was swaying from the wind outside. The effects of the curtain and the moon's light made her sleeping body mesmerizing. Alicia looked like a sleeping beauty, waiting to be kissed by her prince.
I walked quietly and slowly to her side. She was sleeping soundly when I see her shiver.
'She might be cold.' I thought.
”Silly girl.” I smiled gently. ”You entered from the balcony but you didn't close the door.”
I slowly closed the door to the balcony, stopping the cold wind from blowing inside. Then I gently seat down beside Alicia's sleeping figure. Her face was rosy white but had a few stains from tears. My heart clenched in pain.
”I made you cry.” I said guiltily. I softly traced her tear stained cheeks with my fingers.
Alicia stirred awake, her beautiful eyes fluttered gently.
”Leon.” Alicia called.
”I'm here.” I replied.
