Chereads / THE WARRIOR PRINCESS / Chapter 15 - CHAPTER 15

Chapter 15 - CHAPTER 15

It became dark, I went to prepare Lexar's bed when I saw a well-arranged bookshelf, I walked towards it and a book which had the title royal lineage caught my eye. I only intended to take a little peep into the book so I sat on the bed not knowing when I got lost in it.

Lexar made a slight entry into the room, not noticing his presence I gave him no attention, he sat on the chair next to the coffee table and watched me read, with the expectation that I would notice his attention, and he stared at me with a passionate smile.

A while later I was still deep into the book, feeling kinda lonely and invisible he cleared his throat attracting my attention, I noticed his presence and stood up immediately adjusting my dress, how long have you been sitting there stirring at me "I asked glaringly".

He gave me no response, I felt ashamed as my cheeks flushed red as he took a good gaze at me, he stooped then asked what sort of information does the book contain, the same feeling came again I took a deep swallow of my spit then explained to him, the book talked about the trial and the continuity of the royal lineage, I said with my head facing down.

Later the room became as quiet as a deserted land, so I made attempt to leave the room, about walking out, I felt a tight grip on my arm which made me feel shivers through my spines, wait stay, I heard Lexar say before I turned my back. But why your highness I said with a little bent of my knees.

Please stay a little longer and let's have some tea, I would like your company very much "Lexar pleaded while deeply with his glowy eyes", I can help get you the tea if you're thirsty it is not right for me to stay in here chatting with you, (I said looking flattered by the conversation). If you won't accept my plead so I make it an odder you have to have tea with me.

I walked out the room door and made my way to the kitchen to prepare tea, I saw Lydia and Anne chatting, they asked after noticing my presence, how are things going with the prince "they both said teasingly", It is going well I guess (I said with a light smile) if you say so " Lydia said staring at me with a narrowed brow, I ignored her expression which made them amused in laughter.

I made some earl grey tea using some tea leaves and added a little squeeze of lemon juice for a nice scent, I sieved it all using a strainer, poured the tea into a pale pink and gold teacup, placed it all on a tray, and carried it to his room with no distractions.

I walked into his room and saw he had organized the table stole and sat on a white armchair next to it and offered me a seat next to him, the tea tasted so nice and soothing which made me feel drowsy, after so much chattering I fell into a deep sleep.
