Hama ran to the southern garden of the Palace and looked around while she was looking for someone in the garden.
She had heard that the brothers and sisters of the royal family of the dragon tribe were in the north and had hurried to the southern garden.
Just before she walked into the garden, she looked in the mirror and put her clothes properly. She removed the tail she had in her hair and her long golden blond curls fell along her face and shoulders. She squeezed her cheeks a little so that she had a red blush.
She walked slowly into the garden, but the courage she just had began to leave her because it was very quiet in the garden. That was a sign that the brothers and sisters were no longer in the garden, since it was never quiet when they were somewhere.
Hama walked slowly through the southern garden while she was looking around to see the familiar silhouette of the person she wanted to see so badly.
But no matter how long and far she walked in the southern garden, there was no sign of one of the brothers or sisters of the dragon tribe.
She walked defeated to the exit of the southern garden. Hama was thinking how to get in touch with the person she wanted to see so badly. When she passed the memorial place of the former queen of the dragon tribe. She bowed to show her respect.
When she wanted to continue walking, she was very shocked because she stumbled over something. She looked irritated at the ground and saw a leg lying on the grass in front of her. Her eyes wandered farther to see who the leg belonged to.
When Hama saw whose leg it belonged to, her heart started beating faster and she got warm. She sank to her knees and sat down without worrying that her dress would get dirty next to the one who was sleeping in the grass.
Kenta wore the typical costume of the dragon tribe in the colors of the tribe. He was dressed in red puffed pants with a white sleeveless tunic. He had taken off his red and white Toga and had it on the bench behind the statue of ice of the earlier Queen of the dragon tribe.
Hama looked at the sleeping Kenta with loving eyes. His hair, which was normally black, now glowed red in the sun. His skin was beautifully tinted and Hama had to swallow when she saw his muscular arms.
His tunic was up a bit so Hama could see his trained V-line and some of his muscles. She knew that it was not appropriate for an unmarried lady to sit so close to a man and not to stare but she could not resist.
Whenever she saw Kenta, her eyes kept following him, she always wanted to be as close as possible to him. From the beginning when she had seen him for the first time six years ago at the first meeting of all the tribe after the war, she could not forget him.
Every chance she had she seized to be close to him or to chat with her. Hama suddenly felt a stab in her heart.
Kenta had always spoken to her formally and never on a friendly or deeper basis. And every attempt she made to get close to him didn't work.
She sighed and wondered when she would be a good seer just like her mother. Would she see his future and see her in it? No, unfortunately, seer never sees anything wat had to do with her or his own future.
In addition, a seer only sees parts and it is the seer's job to properly interpret the images.
Hama reached out and rubbed Kenta's hair
"So soft"
While Hama was rubbing his hair, Kenta woke up slowly. She stopped and wanted to withdraw her hand. As his eyes opened, Hama was startled by the red, glittering eyes that slowly turned more black and looked at her insistently.
Before she could pull back her hand, it was firmly grabbed by Kenta, causing Hama her heart to beat even louder and she was afraid that Kenta would hear it.
When he looked at her playfully with a grin on his face, she was sure that she was bright red and her heart would pop out of her chest.
"Why are you stopping your princess? I like your touch. "
Hama was panting as if she had just stopped running a long distance. She did her best to remain as calm as possible, but the newly awakened Kenta looked so abnormally handsome that she didn't know how to behave.
"First prince of the dragon tribe, the first born princess of Haruka and Teru greets you"
Kenta sat up while holding her hand. He rubbed his eyes with his other hand and then turned to Hama and sat cross-legged.
"Greetings, Princess, don't you mind your dress getting so dirty?"
Kenta stood up with a quick movement and extended his hand to Hama
"What brings the princess here in the southern garden"
Hama took the hand of Kenta, blushing, and allowed herself to be lifted by him and tipped off her dress.
"I was just taking a walk, first prince"
Kenta laughed and he took his toga and looked at Hama
"Princess would you be so kind as to help me wear my toga"
Hama waved with her hands in front of her face. Since when has Kenta been so nice to me, I think I'm hallucinating!
Kenta looked at Hama with a smile, he was already aware of her feelings, but since he was to become the next king of the dragon tribe, it was not his decision who he would marry.
But since the dragon tribe were already connected to the other tribes through a marriage, it did not matter now if Kenta married a woman of the dragon tribe or other tribe.
He had always felt attracted to Hama, but to avoid disappointment he had always kept her at bay. But the moment he saw her sit down beside him while she continued to stare at him with her yellow eyes and her golden blond hair that fluttered through the wind, his heart jumped.
They were both silent while Hama helped Kenta wear his toga While Hama's heart kept beating hard because of the way Kenta looked at her.
It was a good thing she had asked her maids to find someone to teach her how to wear a toga, since it wasn't something that was worn in the North.
When she was done, she sighed with relief and wiped the sweat from her forehead. When she looked up, she was shocked at how close Kenta was to her and forgot to breathe.
"Princess, do you have time to accompany me?"
Kenta handed her a hand while he made a small bow, Hama tried to take his hand not too eagerly, which partly failed, but Kenta only smiled while she kept blushing.
Together they walked in silence through the southern garden and despite the fact that they both said nothing, it was not uncomfortable.
In time they came to a field full of flame flowers with different colors. There were pink, purple and red flame flowers that were nicely planted next to each other.
When Kenta walked with Hama through the field with flame flowers, thousands of butterflies flew up and around them.
Hama looked with glittering eyes at the picture before her and laughed cheerfully.
Kenta looked at Hama and smiled lovingly. He always thought it was wonderful to read all of Hama's emotions on her face.
"It's getting late princess, it's time to go back."
Hama looked a bit disappointed, but it was indeed time to return.
she took Kenta's hand and together they walked to the exit of the southern garden.
