After the coronation ceremony and exchange of formalities among the nobles, Ariya felt the urge to go home. She scanned the room once again before deciding to leave.
"Looking for me?" A voice from the back startled her. She turned her back immediately facing Lance, however she didn't expect that their faces will only be inches away from each other. The other nobles stared at their direction talking and whispering to each other. This made Ariya uncomfortable so she pushed the new king from her. Lance displayed his beautiful but playful smile at her.
"If you miss me that much you could have said it. I will accompany y--" before he could finish Ariya cut in.
"No need." She frowned at the man before her. She bit her lower lip unsure about how to react. Her heart is thumping so hard like it's about to destroy her rib cage. The new king glared at the nobles looking at them that made the whispers in the room halt.
"Are you alright? You are all red." He was about to to touch Ariya's face but was stopped midair by the Queen's glare.
"Don't you dare!" Ariya decided to leave the palace. She doesn't understand the weird feeling swarming in her body.
"My Queen, why are you...so flustered?" King Lance chuckled lightly. He loved teasing the Queen so much, his heart went crazy.
"I..I am not!" So she thought. She left hurriedly at the palace without giving King Lance a second glance.
'My Queen, you cannot escape from me.' a playful smirk is plastered on his face and went inside to the palace.
"Bastard! Why is he giving me this weird feeling?! Ughh!" Ariya grunted in dismay.
What weird feeling is our Queen talking about? Hmmm.. quite suspicious.
"I will really cut your head you shameless King!" The Stallion neighed and flew fast in the vast sky.
