I did not know what went over me, but when I saw him so vulnerable I felt bad for him. Who would have thought that a crown prince who would have so many lovers would be so alone in reality.
The way he hugged me, I could feel his loneliness. Who would have thought that this kind of man needed more hugs and assurance. He was not looking at me as the womanizer I knew since long, but a kid who needed help and assurance. I patted his back for a while until he calmed down.
"We need to keep moving." I reminded him and he finally nodded and left my arms.
"We are not that far away. We will be in the palace soon." he replied with confidence and I nodded.
"I thought that the woods were too deep." it suddenly felt easy, i thought that it would take a lot of time and effort after being lost there.
