Chapter 40 - The Princess with the Unusual Heartbeat

Prince Lex and Princess Anastasia had both returned back to the castle. They are now ready to leave the kingdom of Melolina as the King, Rosella's father had agreed to help 'the kingdom of Tama' in the upcoming war as he had already signed the allegiance treaty... Just as they're about to set out on their journey, they've walked some kilometers away from the castle as Rosella and her servants came running towards them.... Prince Lex signifies the others to wait when he sighted them from afar.

Perhaps, it's something urgent. Said prince Lex. Let's wait for her...… Princess Rosella meets up with them as she delivers to them lots of food and keg of wine all placed in a travelling bag. I know your journey is still a long mile ahead. You will need food and drinks to quench your hunger and your taste along the way to survive the harsh condition of the jungle. Fare well friends. She smiled. It was great having you in my Kingdom. She bows and about to take her leave as Prince Lex stopped her. Is there something else you want to say to me? .... She turns towards him and smiled. I really wish I could have come with you on this journey, but it looks fate has a different plan for both of us. I have to look after my kingdom while you go prepare for war... I know if fate will have it, we shall meet again…. Perhaps, in the battle field. I will feel honored to stand beside you in battle. She leans closer as she kisses him on the cheek. Fare Well, 'Your Highness'. Prince Lex smiled. Fare well, 'My lady'. He bowed in curtsy as Princess Rosella takes her leave.

Prince Lex and the others continued on their journey... After a long awkward silence, Diana speaks up. I glad it's finally over. Prince Lex has recovered…. the King had signed the Allegiance treaty, Princess Rosella seems to have given up her obsession for you, 'Your Highness' and Princess Anastasia is back to her normal self.... Princess Anastasia mutters. My curse isn't normal.... Diana smiled…. but you seem to be ok with it. Lucas interrupted as he opens the map in his possession. We're going to go through the hills, desert and Mountains, to proceed to our next destination.....

Where's our next destination exactly? Lucas answered. We're heading to the North. To the kingdom of 'Dorillas'…. Anastasia exclaimed. I know the Kingdom! My father is a good friend of 'Emperor Gaius'. The Kingdom of 'Dorillas' are most famous for their treasures and amazing antiques work. Princess Anastasia is right.... Prince Lex answered. The kingdom of 'Dorillas' are proud merchants and very creative. This is the reason why their kingdom is quite prosperous and powerful.

The kingdom knows nothing about war, for their emperor is known to be a very wise and peaceful King. Why will you want to ask him to help you in the war? Anastasia stared at Lex curiously. Lex answered. I'm not sure the reasons myself but I've come to this resolution, when we get there, I will find out the answers for myself. Anastasia smiled. I trust your Judgement, 'Your Highness'. Prince Lex taps her hair playfully. The journey is very long... We will all need to be strong. Lucas smiled. We all know what we signed up for when we agreed to come with you on this journey, 'Your Highness'. Prince answered with a smile on his face. I don't know if I would have been able to go through this journey alone without your help, guys. I owe you all my life.... He smiled as the others stared at him smiling.
