Chapter 25 - I've missed you Leonora...

Zulia's P.O.V

"Prince Travis!", I yelled out his name.

I slowly got out from underneath his body, seeing the back of his shirt burnt, he has burnt wounds on his back,

Did Prince Travis just save me from getting burnt?.

I checked around for the white cloaked man, but all I saw was a sign of 2 triangles facing eachother and an eye in the middle burnt to the floor of where the boom sound came from.

Even with the loud boom sound,nobody woke up from it. The street is quiet and still but I could feel the presence of someone watching me, I went to find the body of the Brown cloaked man.

I searched around, his body was gone but with the same triangle eye burnt sign on the ground.

I ran back to Prince Travis, who seems to ask be unconscious.

I carried him back to my place, since the castle was way too far.

"Goodness gracious!, why are you so... so heavy" I dragged his heavy body panting, as I met Ivan on my way home.

"Why is Travis here?" He looked at me expecting an answer.

"It's a confidential mission,so I can't let you know"

"Ohh... I see" He walks away

"Ivan... I wouldn't mind you helping me out here" I grunted as I tried to lift Prince Travis.

"Okay Princess", He smiles at me.

"What did you just call me?".

"Princess...,cause you look like one" He smiles again as he scratches the back of his head.

"Did I offend you in anyway My Princess"

His creepy smile and annoying presence ticks me off.

"No it didn't annoy me Ivan, but I'll prefer not to call me Princess".

He nods in agreement and helps me out with Prince Travis.

I knocked on the door as Zamora opens the door

"What happened?, isn't that the Second Prince?" she panics.

"No questions, just help me out here"

We were able to carry him over to the other room and carefully dropped him.

"I don't know what's going on here,but Travis is royalty and you can get in trouble if something happens to him while he is spending the night at your place".

"Thanks for your concern Ivan, but I think you mean Prince Travis, not ordinary Travis. " I glared

He looks at me unfazed.

"Thank you for helping me out, you can leave now"

"Ohh ... okay" he leaves the house.

"Why are you always so harsh to him?" Zamora asks.

"I don't know why you can't feel it Zamora, but he gives me an icky feeling, Who walks around this late at night?, why does he have so many connections in the kingdom? and why does he have to give that creepy smile? and why did he call me Princess?".

"Zulia you're just being paranoid, he just left our house a while ago that's why you met him on the way this late at night and he calls us Princess most times,he's just a very kind and funny person". Zamora tries to persuade me.

"And you believe that?, he's very suspicious".

"I don't have the energy to talk about Ivan this late at night, I'm going to bed, Goodnight Zulia" She walks out of the room.

I sat down beside Prince Travis then undressed him and checked on his wounds.

"I don't know where you got this large slash cut from but if you don't treat it well it will get infected" I said to his unconscious body....

"Stop rambling in my face, " he slowly opened his eyes.

"You're awake?". ohh no, hope he didn't hear everything i discussed with Zamora a while ago?.

"I woke up a while ago" He looks at me softly.

"Prince Travis,can i dress your wounds?, it looks really bad"

He nods in agreement.

I cleaned the dried up blood with a wet cotton wool and dressed his wounds,applied ointment to his burns as he watches me.

I feel slightly uncomfortable as he watches me, he lets out a slight groan, as I tied cloth bandage to this waist.

"Erm... Prince Travis, Did you save me from the explosion by pushing yourself on me?, did you just get burnt for me?".

he ignores my question and went to sleep.

I don't think he has realized how beat up his body is right now, he is covered in cuts and burns.

I slept on the chair beside him, just incase he needs my assistance for anything, that's the best I can do for him.

I fell asleep before I realized, it seems hours had gone by.

I am woken by the mumering sound made by Prince Travis,he looks scared and sad

"Is he having a nightmare?"

I tapped him to wake him from his nightmare but he isn't responding, I gently placed the back of my palm on his forehead

"His fever is high and he is covered in sweat".

"Prince Travis?" I tapped him to wake him up,but he isn't responsive.

I soaked a towel in cold water and placed it on his head.

I had to change it a couple more, since he kept having a high temperature.

He is shaking but he still isn't awake.

"Prince Travis wake up!!!, if you die I'll be killed "

I held his hands and tried to calm him down.

He finally opens his eyes as he stares at me

"I've missed you Leonora... why...why did you have to betray me?".

He slightly raises his body and he...

Slowly placed his lips on mine,I found it hard to pull away, it felt warm and wet yet a hot and a sweet sensation, my tongue had a mind of it's own.

He places his arm around my neck and pulls me closer,as our tongue met...

More!!!

I craved for more,I want more,every part of my mouth feels hot and wet, I've never felt this way before. My whole body is throbbing.

He stops as he stares at me.

"I know this is all a dream but I wish it wasn't Leonora, I'm going to be wake up tomorrow and I'll realize this is all a dream and you were never here".

He goes back to sleep.

Leonora?... why did he think this is all a dream?.

I doubt I'll be able to face him tomorrow
