Zeri's POV

I felt a hand brushing my hair away from my face and caressing my cheek, i thought it might be Remus and opened my eyes sitting up”Remus” i called out, but there was no one i looked around in my chamber there was no one, but i felt a hand caressing my cheek probably i was dreaming.

I got ready and was walking towards the dining hall, i halted when Raiden was standing outside the dining hall when i saw him the scene from the previous night replayed in my head my blunder err, as our gaze met i looked away and entered into dining hall, he entered behind me and stopped me by keeping his hand on my shoulder ”Zeri why are you ignoring me” he asked.

Before i could show the apoplexy of mine, i heard footsteps approaching and he removed his hand father entered.

I sat before food staring at it in complete silence whilst father and Raiden were having conversation, i didn't looked at him once, i was freaking worried about Remus's reaction when he knows about what i did. what have i done how could i do that ”Zeri” father called, i was snapped out of my thoughts by father's voice.

”ah yes father” i said looking at him.

”where are you lost Zeri, I've called you twice” he asked.

”nothing, father i was thinking about something” i said and looked away.

”I'm done I'm leaving” i said and got up to walk away.

”you haven't ate your food Zeri” he quoth.

”I'm feeling queasy, i need some rest and I'll eat later father” i exclaimed and left the dining hall without looking at them. i walked as fast as i can i stopped in front of the window and stood there looking at the entrance gate of castle, the guilt was killing me and tears formed in my eyes, i was waiting for Remus since one hour standing at the window, eventually i saw a carriage coming towards the castle, it stopped in front of the castle and Remus got done from it, he looked up at the castle and stood there a knight approached him and he said something to the knight and he rushed in, why wasn't he coming inside after couple of minutes knight came with Raiden and Remus got inside the carraige, Raiden before entering the carraige looked up at window i was standing at and smiled at me waving his hand and entered into the carraige and left the castle, how in the world he could see me here, the window was covered with fog and i was standing  behind the drapes.

I was in great trauma what happened with Remus why didn't he came to meet me, he knows that I'm waiting for him, perhaps father wouldn't have let him in, i know my father is angry at him but he will not disrespect him by making him stand outside the castle in chilling cold, i was dying to meet him and waited for him,  i got into my chamber maybe he will come later to meet with me.

”Princess what happened Ela said me you refused to eat your food you even skipped your midday meal and breakfast too” Laura exclaimed in worry.

I sat up and looked at her she came in and closed the door behind her, tears started forming in my eyes ”Princess what happened, why are you crying” she apprehended and sat beside me, i swiftly hugged her and sobbed, ”Princess you're  scaring me please tell me what happened” she said whilst rubbing my back.

I pulled away and said what Raiden did and what I've done after listening  what i did she was alarmed but tried to hide it in which she miserably failed.

”I'm so bad Laura i don't deserve his love” i sobbed covering my face with my hands.

”no Princess you're not bad, sometimes we do somethings without knowing for which we will regret later, but sometimes even if we don't want it to happen we can't stop them so please don't curse your self for something which was irresistible Princess” she said calming me and cupped my face ”i know you love him to extreme and i know you haven't kissed Raiden purposely but it was mistakebhe will comprehend your situation and forgive you Princess don't worry” she added and kissed my forehead, brushing tears from my face with her thumb.

........

Hours passed into days passed into week, all of these days I've waited for him but he never came, i was beset about Remus he said he would come soon to meet me, even on the day when he came for Raiden he didn't even tried to meet me, probably he might be busy with some work.

Laura brust into my chamber panting, ”what happened Laura” i asked worriedly and walked towards her.

”Princess he's here” she said whilst breathing heavily.

”who Laura”

”Prince Remus, Princess ”

”where is he” i asked.

”he's with your father in the main chamber of castle” she replied.

I rushed towards the main chamber, i entered into the antechamber and stood in there hearing what are they talking about.

”i apologize for blaming you son” father apologized to Remus.
