"It is okay. I want to try it. I will be the seeker. Now... hide!" Prince Andrew smiled and even motioned for her to run and hide.

"You need to close your eyes first and count from one to one hundred." Beatrix excitedly grinned, feeling the inner child in her.

He followed her words and she immediately ran far away and looked for a place to hide. She finally found a nice place to hide... Not waiting too long, a big hand covered her mouth preventing her from screaming! She tried struggling but a strong arm encircled her waist! She squirmed to free herself but the owner of the hand seems very determined to execute whatever he is planning for her! Soon, she is easily dragged to a more desolate part of the palace ground...

Beatrix could not help her tears from falling as she could imagine what could happen next! She could not see the appearance of the person who is firmly holding her, dragging her away towards the direction where no other people normally ventured.

Her attacker seems to be wearing an imperial guard's armored uniform! She wants to see his face but he is so strong preventing her movement! She tried to elbow him several times, stepped on his foot countless times, opened her mouth, and bit him as hard as she could but his hold on her did not falter! It even became stronger! Whoever this person is he seems so determined to execute his plan!

Andrew, help me! Anders, help me! Anyone, please help me! Where are the real imperial guards?!! Who is this person who is not afraid to commit a crime inside the imperial palace?!!

Her heart beats so rapidly as she knew that there is an abandoned structure nearby and it appears that this person is dragging her in that direction to execute his plan unhindered without a witness!

Andrew, find me... Please, save me!

She cried helplessly as her captor dragged her towards the abandoned structure. She sighed a relief when they did not enter the abandoned building contrary to what she feared...

It is good that I am wrong! He is not planning to rape and kill me... Or at least not inside the imperial palace ground?

She continued doing her best in attacking her captor so she could escape! Unfortunately, all her efforts are futile as this mysterious captor is way too strong for her! Her captor continued dragging her until they reached the wall separating the imperial palace ground from the rest of the capital!

When she realized it, her eagerness to escape tripled but still her captor was able to effortlessly jump so high to the wall together with her! He landed at the top of the wall before he effortlessly jumped again and successfully land outside!

Beatrix wants to scream and faint due to a mixture of intense surprise and fear during this entire experience but his big hand is preventing her from shouting and her fear of being taken advantage of without any form of defense is preventing her from completely losing consciousness!

Now that they are outside, he swiftly shifted her position and lifted her like she is a sack of rice with her face turned upside down, hanging, and facing his back... Everything was so fast, she failed to see his face! She wants to beat his back but did not pursue it because he is protected with heavy armor! Only a superhuman or an idiot will directly strike a hard cold metal!

She planned to scream but her captor ran and jumped very fast... Her head is bouncing and she could not see properly where they are heading due to her uncomfortable position and his unbelievable speed!

She immediately felt so dizzy, preventing her from screaming for help. She could feel that all the food that she ate this morning are about to be released in a very massive and messy puke! She was about to throw up when her captor abruptly stopped!

Prince Andrew finished counting from one to one hundred so he opened his eyes. He scanned the surroundings and decided to walk in the direction that she chose to run. He knew that his direction is correct because of the lingering scent that she left behind. He could always recognize her unique and irresistible scent anytime and anywhere.

He decided to walk slowly, feeling very sorry for her. He does not want to see her disappointed and devastated face if he easily finds her so he chose to pretend that finding her was so hard for him... But for some reason, he suddenly feels her call for help! He does not know how and why but he knew and he could feel her intense fear and desperation!

She is in danger!!! What happened to her?!!

And so he ran and jumped as fast as he could in the direction where she recently went to!
