Mason held Kathy's hands, and Jackson joined them as they hurried out of the square. The king's guards began to chase after them while they kept running. After a while, Mason stopped and said, "Jackson, take Kathy away. I will meet you guys at the location we agreed to spend the night."Jackson refused, "Listen, Mason, why not let me stay with you and...""No, take her away," Mason insisted.Kathy remarked, "But you're already injured and yet you want to fight?"Mason smiled, "The only reason why I ran away from the square is because I did not want to interrupt the game that is going on there. Being the king and all, fighting his guards there might put an end to the game, and I did not want that. Don't worry, as long as you're safe, it will be easier for me to take these men. Go with Jackson."Kathy stared at his injury with worry while Mason pinched her cheek affectionately. "C'mon, it's just a piece of cake, okay?" She nodded and finally turned and left with Jackson.Mason stood th
The princess stared at Damion in disgust and asked her guards to attack him. They all rushed toward him to beat him up. However, he ended up beating them all to the ground while the princess stared at him in amazement.When the guards were all lying on the ground, he picked up her glass of wine and took a sip. Afterward, he dropped the cup and smiled. "I'll be seeing you around, princess." He turned and walked away while everyone else stared at him in awe.Meanwhile, Mason looked at the king and said, "I'm not giving Kathy to anyone.""Really? Listen, these are not ten, fifteen, or twenty guards. If you try to stop me from getting what I want, you will die today. You will fight all my army, and trust me, you're no match for them."Kathy looked around and noticed that the king had so many men; there were more than two hundred present. She moved closer to Mason and said, "Listen, you're bleeding. Please, let's just do whatever he wants, okay? I don't want you to be in danger.""That is
As they made their way to the Hara Kingdom, Jackson sat on a separate horse, while Katherine and Mason sat on another.As he sat beside her, Katherine felt his breath fanning her neck. She recalled how he had introduced her to the king as his wife and smiled. Being in such close proximity had an effect on her. Her heart was racing, and she felt butterflies in her stomach. This was similar to how she had felt the first time she saw Mason, but things had turned out differently back then. However, now Mason seemed like a star that was within her reach. She didn't know if she was aiming too high, perhaps getting ahead of herself. But Mason had expressed his feelings for her and his desire to have her as his girlfriend.She didn't know what to do. "Should I give him an answer? With the way I feel, if I don't say anything soon, he might think I have lost interest in him. What if he goes after another maiden? Can my heart bear it?" She wondered.They kept going until they finally arrived
Kathy stared at Mason in surprise, "You....want....to join me in the bathroom?"Mason nodded, "If you don't mind."Her heart began to beat fast. She knew she has feelings for Mason but she was afraid. What if he came into the bathroom and felt disappointed after seeing her?But what if she said no and he became unhappy? She wanted him to be happy because then she would be happy too.Mason stared at her, waiting for her answer. He could see fear and uncertainty in her eyes and felt the need to reassure her."What are you afraid of," he asked. "I will never hurt you, Kathy. Can I come in? I will love to bathe with you."Kathy decided to take the risk. She opened the door wide so he could join her.As his eyes fell on her naked body, Mason swallowed. He looked at the curve between her beautiful legs and back at her face and began to take off his clothes right in front of her.She stared at him wide-eyed and her cheeks became flushed when she realized he had gotten a boner.She gasped and
Damian let go of the princess, and she stared at him in surprise as she tried to catch her breath."Let's go meet your brother now," he said.Mason went back into the room after Jackson left. He lay on the bed beside Kathy and told her everything that happened. She smiled, "I guess Jackson is also capable of falling in love." Mason shook his head, "No, I think he's a fool.""Come on, how can you say he's a fool because he's in love? Didn't you also claim to love me?" she asked."It's different," Mason replied."I know you, Kathy. I know who you are, but Jackson doesn't know Bridget, or whatever her name is. However, it's not in my place to question his emotions or his hormones." Katherine laughed while Mason took hold of her hands and said, "Everything I said last night, I meant it. And everything I've said too, ever since we became close, I still meant them. You're everything to me, Kathy. I promise that I'll always love you. And one of the steps I need to take to prove that is to
Jackson returned to the inn and walked towards his room. Just before he entered, he noticed that Mason's room had its door open. That was strange. He knew Mason was hiding Kathy, especially from everyone because of her beauty. So why would he leave his door open? Jackson wanted to go and check, but Bridget, whose arm was hooked to his, said, "Come on, let's go in, Jackson.""Mm, you go ahead, okay? I'm coming right away," he replied.Afterward, he turned and walked into his room. Bridget stood by the door, contemplating what to do. Realizing that Jackson was going to figure out what was happening, she entered the room and began to take off her clothes. Then she seductively lay on the bed. Meanwhile, Jackson went into Mason's room, looking around in surprise. Mason could not have left without telling him. What could have happened?Moreover, the state of the room suggested that they had not actually left but were taken. Some of Kathy's belongings were left on the bed. Something didn't
Damian met with the king of the Thazik Kingdom. According to the agreement he had with the princess, when he stood before the king, the king told him about his intention to get revenge on Mason and make Katherine his. Damian nodded, "Indeed, it is just a piece of cake, but I have a condition. The princess would have to come with me.""Why?" the king asked."That was the agreement we had.""No, we had no such agreement," the princess interrupted.Damian stared at her for a while and finally turned to the king, "I'm sorry, but that's the only thing I want. I don't need money. I just want the princess to be with me on this journey. Once I deliver Mason to you, I can let her go."The king thought for a while and said, "Okay, deal."The princess's eyes widened in surprise, "What? Deal?! Are you going to sell me off?""Come on, this is my honor we're talking about," the king replied, "I've done so much for you. This is your only chance to do something for me. Don't be selfish. I just said I
Damian moved around the area where Mason, the king, and everyone else had fought. He told the princess to bring him there, that he needed to observe the scene of the fight. That way, he would see if Mason left behind anything that could be helpful in tracking him. The princess agreed and took him over there. However, while they were there, he noticed some of the warriors from Kathy's kingdom. He moved to the side, hiding from them, but the princess said, "Don't worry, they are not enemies of our kingdom; they are allies.""I know," Damian said, "but they are warriors. I'd rather not meet with them unless it's necessary." The princess nodded, and afterward, she said, "I need to go to the palace and find out why they came.""Why do you seem so invested in political matters? Why are you so worried about what happens to the king? You're neither his wife nor are you.....I mean, yes, you're a princess, but shouldn't a princess be worried about other things?""Well, he's my only brother,"
