The knights went to the Beluza mansion and informed lord Lyson and lady Lilliana. They immediately packed and went to the camping site, where the prince was located. It took more than 3 hours for them to reach the camping site. Throughout the entire journey, Lilliana prayed to the goddess for Prince Albert safety.
When they reached the camp site, they immediately made their way to the crown prince tent. Prince Albert was in serious condition. His skin was starting to show blue. While his left hand had became dark black.
Lilliana took her relics and concentrated on it. Her hand emitted a white light, which she transferred to the prince hand. She then concentrated and try to remove the darkness for his hand.
The healing took about 5 hours straight. None of the people present there moved from their position apart from a few maids who served the healers with water. After 5 hours, Lilliana took her hand and the light stopped emitting. The Crown prince then opened his eyes. He saw Lilliana milky eyes and her purple hair dangling near his hand.He touched her silky hair unconsciously.
The prince then tried to get up, Lilliana seeing this supported his upper shoulder. Seeing him alright, tears flow down Lilliana eyes. The prince seeing this wiped her tears.
"Prince Albert, are you alright!!"
"I am alri-…" The prince suddenly coughed up black blood. Seeing this, Lilliana, got afraid.
"It's alright, this is due to the darkness leaving his highness body." The head physician present informed. Everyone present were relived in hearing his. The Crown prince looked at Lilliana and thanked her.The physician then proceed to check his highness vitals.
"Lilly, are you alright, you seem a little white"
"I am fine your highness, please drink this, it's holy water."
The prince drank the water and with Lilliana got up for this body, suddenly Lilliana lost her balance as she got weak from the using too much powers. The Crown prince caught her and carrier her in princess style and laid her on his bed.
"Royal physician, please check whether lady Lilliana is okay". The physician took Lilliana's hand and checked her vitals.
"Your highness, please do not worry, she fainted due to over exerting herself. After a good night sleep, she will be alright." The Crown prince on hearing this calmed his nervousness.
"Prince, we all shall retire for the night." The Crown prince dismissed everyone and stayed by Lilliana side.
Lord Lyoid came and saw the prince near his daughter.
"Your highness, greeting, let me ask someone to carry her"
"Greetings to you to Lord Lyoid, and it's okay, let her stay, after all she was the one who saved me."
"Then I let my daughter in your care"he bowed and thanked the prince
"Is there any news from the east?"
"Your highness, duke Carlose had sent an messenger eagle, stating that Monsters number had been decreased, and he told that it will take him and his Knights 2–3 days for complete annihilation of the Monsters "
"Duke carlose, sure is impatient "The prince laughed " Lord, even you should go back to sleep, I will look after Lady Lilliana, you don't have to worry"
"Okay your highness, have a good night"
After the prime Minister left, prince Albert looked at the documents, writing his report for the day, when we heard Lilliana stir in her sleep. The prince went to the side and hold her hands.
"Please, don't hurt him" Lilliana mumbled in her sleep. The Crown prince did not know what to do. He tried to wake her up. But she was too tried to wake up. The Crown prince, not knowing what to do, hug her to calm her down.
With the prince's warmth by her side, Lilliana hugged him back and slept peacefully in his embrace. The prince decided to stay lika that for some time. The prince looked at Lilliana's small lips and button nose. Her smell was covering his senses. She smelled like Lilly, and he wanted to drown in her smell. She was like a fairy, from a fairy tale story. He wanted to hug her and lock her up. He blushed where his thoughts were going, and decided to close his eyes for some time. As soon as his eyes closed, the fatigue wore him out, and he falls asleep.
The light from the sun were peeking through the holes and falls on Lilliana's eyes. This awakened her and She blushed, when she saw she was in prince Albert's embrace. She looked up and saw prince Albert hair and stoked him. His hair was so soft like a cloud and he had long eyelashes. She was so endorsed in it that the action of stoking his hair woke him. His blue colored eyes directly looked at her, milky ones. His breath reached near her head, she suddenly looked away and untangled her from his embrace.
He then got up from his bed." Lilly, why are you embarrassed now, you would not let me go last night and hugged me for the whole" hearing his words her face turned bright red. Her flushed face, made prince Albert to tease her further, he took her hair tip and kissed it.
Then Lilliana maids came by, and prince Albert let her hair go on seeing her maids, she went with them to her tent to get ready for today.
Albert also went to get ready for today's fight as he was fully recovered.
