(On the other side)
"Ouch! These twigs! " Eiana complained as she cut the twigs and the small branches with her sword that hindered her path as she moved forward.
" Hmm... I can see the town from here. If I go on like this... I should be able to reach the town by dusk today. Huh... "
She felt that she had lost herself. It looked a short way from the top, but she now realized that this route through the forest was actually a long cut.
Hell... but it will still be worth if she only doesn't get caught by the guards.
Eiana heaved while mumbling to herself. She was alone so she can only talk to herself.
Well.. . That was what she thought.
While she walked avoiding the thorns, twigs, and branches she complained to God knows whom nonstop. " You know what, it's all your fault!
If not for you, I would have not needed to leave my castle and wander like a homeless person in this wild!
Did you really have so much scarcity of girls in Veleris?!
If not for that stupid marriage proposal, I would have never needed to sleep on a tree branch!
And those annoying mosquitoes! I never knew this was their haven! "
Complaining and walking... And again complaining and again walking. It went for a couple of hours.
While a shadow silently followed her listening to her nonstop rambling amusedly.
After a while, Eiana got really tired. The sun was quite high up now. She took out her pocket watch. It was ten am now.
Pursing her lips, she thought, "Everyone in the castle should have found out by now. They must be searching for her maybe. "
Father must have enquired Seryn and Elyn and they would have told him by now about my questions and my visit to him. So he must have known by now.
So father please understand that I don't want to marry the king of Veleris. That I would rather run away than marry him. And cancel the marriage!
She subconsciously looked back, to ensure whether or not any royal guard followed her or found her.
Okay, she did feel guilty, In fact very guilty, to make others worry about her.
But they also should think about her, right?! She too didn't want to marry a stranger! And a blood sucking cruel Vampire in that!
She had a lot of fantasies about her marriage and her husband okay! She can't just marry anyone!
Just thinking of her possible Vampire groom made her blood go cold. She shook her head.
It's okay Eiana, you are safe now! Just go hiding for some days. And after the Marriage is canceled, just come back.
" Okay, I am doing nothing wrong!"
So, after convincing herself for God knows how many times did she feel better.
And now... She is feeling hungry!
Looking around... Hmm... This is a good place. The place she is standing is near a cliff and she can have a perfect view of the whole town and some more villages from here. Beautiful.
