A Little Slave Girl, Lucky 97 [top romance novels TXT] 📗

at me, a pained look to him, a strand of his beautiful blonde hair falling into his eyes, "but in my panic, I pushed you too hard, and you got a concussion from hitting the ground with such force. At least, that was what the doctor told me." Searing regret showed plainly on his face.

"So how long was I unconscious?" I asked.

"Four days."

I sat up, my straight brown hair splayed out on the back of the wall as I leaned against it. This didn't look like a room in the castle at England, with practically no heirlooms, instead a beautiful mural that stretched from wall to wall. "Where am I?" I questioned.

"France," Luke smiled finally, happily. Then, he laughed, "King Henry VI didn't exactly want us around." He put his hand on mine. "I heard everything. I was there."

"What?" I asked, amazed. He heard every word they spoke, found out about their whole plan?

"And I was there too," A big man, whom I instantly recognized to be King Rupert, entered the room, a smile on his face.

"I saw you being forced away," Luke explained, "and I grabbed Father and followed them. When they brought you to the courtyard, we hid right by the archway."

I stared at them both, open-mouthed.

"You were very brave," King Rupert nodded at me, "You stood up to them."

"I can't believe you would actually die for me," Lucas shook his head regretfully, "I'm not worth it."

I looked at him, my beautiful prince, his hazel eyes sparkling in the sunlight. "Yes," I said softly, "you are."

We stared at each other, energy surging between us, happiness crackling in the air.

King Rupert coughed awkwardly. "Well," he said, "I'll just go now." Then, right before he left, he shot me a wink.

I could hear his happy humming as he thumped away.

Luke nodded at his retreating figure. "He's practically in love with you himself after your amazing bravery and courage."

The doctor had gone, us being the only two people in the room.

Silence sizzled between us, words not necessary.

"I love you," I whispered, brushing the stray hair out of his eyes. He smiled, lighting up the whole room with it's brightness. He was so beautiful, with eyes like stars and hair like gold.

"I love you too."

We came together in a kiss, his soft lips dancing on mine. The scent of him intoxicated me, I bringing both of my hands around his neck, he putting his hands around my waist.

Somehow, we both knew there was many more of these pleasures to come.
