The garden looked unrecognizable, twinkling lights were strung as the stars in the night sky danced above. I looked around the party. A royal party was something to talk about. Though I didn’t enjoy these parties much.

            A face in the crowd caught my attention. He was much younger than those of the usual 1,000 year-old guests who were invited. He was handsome, tall with dark hair. An essence of mystery glowed around him. He looked out of place in the crowd of Faeries. 

            I tore my gaze away from him as a Faerie approached. “Can I ask for this dance?” he asked giving a slight bow. I rolled my eyes but, shrugged and nodded. I had to at least get one dance in. Otherwise I would hear about it in the morning.

            He led me to the floor where Faeries were twirling and laughing. We hadn’t taken more than 5 steps when we were interrupted.

            I turned to see the dark haired stranger I’d been admiring. Standing in front of me now his black eyes shone.

            “Excuse me, but would you mind if I stole a dance?” he asked. From the corner of my eye I saw the Faerie look at me, but my eyes never left the handsome face in front of me. I saw him shrug and slink away into the crowd.

            The music hadn’t stopped but it didn’t take us long to step into rhythm. “You look beautiful tonight,” he whispered in my ear.

            I smiled. “Luke what are you doing here?” I asked. My eyes darted around making sure no one had noticed him. “You could get caught.”

            “I had to see you,” he said.

            I sighed. “I missed you too,” I admitted. “But it still isn’t smart.”

            He smiled. “That’s what love makes you do.”

            I sighed. “Follow me,” I said grabbing his hand and leading him towards the lake-no one would see us there.

            Once we reached the lake I felt his hand slip into mine. “You shouldn’t have come,” I said once again. But every ounce of my body told me differently. I wanted him here. I needed him here.

            “I know,” he whispered, then kissed my cheek.

            The moment was interrupted by a figure dropping from nowhere.

            I jumped back startled. The hissing and glowing eyes told me that it was a demon that stood before us.

            “Prince you are wanted back home,” the demon hissed.

            I felt Luke’s hand tighten around mine. But, before we had time to react the demon disappeared.

            “They found me,” Luke said.

            “Which means they know about us,” I stated.

            “It isn’t safe for either of us anymore,” he said.

            “Dating your mortal enemies’ son can do that,” I said trying to lighten the mood. But, the mood was anything but light. This could result in full out war if not handled with the utter most care. The scary part was I already knew what side I stood on. Any side Luke was on.
