”Ohh I guess I should do more then.”
”What! You are hitting an injured person My Lady.”
”Umm you look fine to me” she smiled as she saw his ever cheerful side again.
Unknowingly, she had missed him so much, yes he pestered her but still he was like a son to her and she almost lost him.
He put on a serious face as he apologized to her. ”My Lady, I am sorry. You warned me and I failed the mission still and had to trouble you to clean up my mess.”
She turned his face to look at her using one of her hands. ”You didn't disappoint me Cullen. I am not angry at you but at myself. I miscalculated, had I known and thought it through that pushing her and cornering her would bring her to her limit, I wouldn't have asked you to do so.”
”It's not your fault” he tried consoling her. His eyes held a warmth that could heal a broken heart.
”It is Cullen, I would never had forgiven myself or her if anything had happened to you.”
”It is okay My Lady, thank you for rescuing me.”
”By the way, were you having a dream just now?”
He nodded his head, ”Tell me” she put back on her serious and expressionless face.
”It wasn't anything serious” he lied to her.
Just now he was having a dream of being trapped to a tree in the Elven forest and the hybrid princess was walking towards him with a ball of magic in one hand and fire in the other as she prepared to hurl it at him.
Everything seemed so real, he was struggling to free himself and that was why he was stirring on the bed in physical.
She knew he lied but she wasn't going to probe him, perhaps he didn't want to trouble her further.
Bang! Bang!!
A knock was heard on the door to her chambers. ”Come in” she said loud enough for the person to hear.
A maid entered and bowed to her. ”Greetings My Lady, greetings Sir Cullen. His Majesty as requested your presence in the throne room” she still had her head low not to be rude to the Lady.
”Very well, you may go” she said without any emotion in her voice.
”Thank you, My Lady” she turned to take her leave.
”Wait... ”
