The heart beat of Princess Joan accelerated as she watched Lucas move gradually and slowly upward. Lucas didn't want anyone coming down so he decided he was going to meet them up there. The kiss she had just shared with Lucas was her first and she hoped there will be time to talk about it because what she was feeling right now for Lucas was something she had never felt before for anyone. She wonders if that is why her aunt kept saying she was meant to meet Lucas and nothing should separate..
She concluded she will asks her aunt about that later but for now she has to worry about her man who has gone out to defend her. She scolded herself mentally for calling him her man as she smiled sheepishly to herself. A quick glance across the room and her eyes feel on Lady Kerry still unconscious. She walked up to her to feel her pulse just to be sure she was still alive. She didn't want to start imagining what will happen if Lady Kerry wakes up to find her still there.
