"My prince…." Aurelia gasped sharply when she came in to see the prince in Islinda's room, her hand resting on her chest from the fright. She had not expected that the prince would be around with the time it took her to find the healer.
However, the prince was not fazed by her presence, looking no more than a silhouette in the pale light. No, he almost seemed to be cloaked with darkness and his unyielding gaze rested on a figure on the bed.
Aurelia's heart almost leaped to her throat when she saw Islinda with her eyes closed and thought the worst. However, she picked up the soft rising of her chest with her sensitive ears and she breathed in relief.
For a moment there, she thought the prince had killed her. He was not incapable of that considering the human has brought him nothing but trouble since her arrival. Just like now, Prince Aldric stared creepily at the poor girl as if he wanted to strangle her in her sleep.
