In Love With The Prince
“I have to go. I can’t stay here. If the king finds out, I’ll be in danger. He might even… he might kill me!”
“No, Elena. Please calm down,” I say, stepping forward and pulling her gently into my arms.
She tries to resist, but eventually, she leans into the hug. “Gilan… this is too much. I’m not like you. I’m not a princess. I’m just a village girl.”
“Listen to me,” I whisper against her hair. “I love you, Elena. I didn’t realize it before, but I know it now. I truly love you. And I made a promise to your mother, to protect you. I won’t ever let anything happen to you.”
