🌷Chapter 13🌷
Destiny🐎

It was a lovely Sunday afternoon, Warrick reserved the military ranch for Madison's horse riding as promised. The Princes went along with their women and so did the King and his Queen. A shed was built and tables and chairs set underneath it so they can view the horseracing session while being cool in the shade with snacks and beverages available.
"This is going to be interesting! A Princess riding a horse is something I would love to see!" Said Sophia.
"Very interesting indeed."

Madison walked through the stables with Warrick by her side, looking at all the different horses and a special one seemed to catch her eyes.
"Ooh, what a beautiful horse! What is her name?" She touched the horse that was just as thrilled as she was.
"Destiny."
"My, what a lovely name for a lovely horse." She said as she ran her fingers through its pure white locks.
"She's trained by the military, she hasn't been used for war yet. But you can have her, if you like."
"You mean that? Thank you!" She engulfed the Prince in a hug who was stunned at her actions.
"Forgive me, that was rude."
"No, my lady. I'm glad you fancy me"
"And do you fancy me?" She countered playfully.
"Of course I do." He gave her a smile.

Warrick helped her mount the horse and she waited for him to mount his steed that was named Prince. They strutted out one after the other and into the field.. Madison saw the Princesses and gave them a little wave. Luella wasn't there with them because she was with Howard.
The wives waved back at her and cheered for her.

"Follow my lead. Okay, my lady?"
"Yes." She nodded.
He strutted his horse across the field, his head faced forward and his shoulders up confidently. Madison was following his every move.
His horse leapt over obstacles smoothly and so did hers, her fiery locks spread out like a fire in the air with every jump.
"Amazing!"
"Bravo!!"
"Well done!!"

Warrick glanced over his shoulder, grinning at the Princess with a mischievous look on on his face. Luella peered at him questionably and mirrored his expression with her shoulders back and her chin up, ready to take on whatever it is he had in place for her.
Out of his pocket he whipped out a dagger to which he aimed it at the fence lock. With a flex of his wrist the dagger propelled forth, hitting the fence and breaking open the lock.
"Such precision." Luella uttered under her breath.
"How about a race, my Princess?"
"I gladly accept!"
Aligning their horses side by side, they shared a glance.
"Ready?"
"Only when you are."

"All right then. Go!" Warrick shouted. They both took off with high speed, venturing beyond the fence and into the woods. The wives looked at each other and shrugged before continuing to sip their tea.

It has been quite some time since they galloped into the woods, not one of them has yet to emerge from the trap of green.
"Where on earth could they be?" She narrowed her eyes into her viewing instrument. Hopefully they could br seen in the distance but it was rendered useless.

"There they are!" She pointed with her fan.  The brown and white horses came from the direction of the woods at a high speed, both side by side. They simultaneously slowed down as they reached the middle of the field. They seemed to be arguing from where the Princesses sat.
"I won!"
"Is there dust in your eyes? For it's clear that I've won!"
"What are you smoking?"

The princesses chuckled amongst themselves at the precious scene.
"If they act this this now, imagine when they are married."
"Or the children they will create."
"Young love, huh?"
