"I…I take it back!" Dora begged, hoping he'd release his grip on her, but he even held her tighter as his lips inched closer to hers again.
Dora acted fast and placed her palms on his mouth.
"I've been gone for too long, the princess might be looking for me," Dora said.
"Let's go together, I'll tell the princess consort and the eldest prince what happened and why you took so long," James said. He had heard the door of the prince's study opening when he was kissing her; he was sure the prince had already returned to his chambers and was already with his wife.
"No! You can't tell the princess what happened!" Dora exclaimed looking horrified.
"Why do you look so scared?"
"Let's just wait for some time and see. If we tell them now, what would happen if we realize we don't want to be together later? We might realize we don't want this to continue in future and I don't want to make any hasty decisions," Dora reasoned.
