When our eyes met

Chapter IX: Backstabbed

The sunlight entered the warm room. The couple was still sleeping but Catra woke up earlier than expected. The maid didn't even arrive in the room to wake her up.. The feeling of the man behind her wrapping his arm around her and nibbling on her shoulder made her think at first that it was Adora but realisation came after and she quickly opened her eyes almost jumping up "Don't touch me!... Last night you've gone too far" The girl hissed and stood up while glaring at him who just rolled his eyes

"You're overreacting.... Calm down. You'll wake everyone up" He grunted roughly and stretched on the bedside with a quiet yawn before rolling on the mattress to get dressed. Her mismatching eyes looked at the door which was yet again cracked open by Adora since she told her to ask for her help if she needed it. Catra whined at the uneasy feeling from her wounds from last night but she was too excited to see what would happen with the knight. If she was about to fight to honour her or not. Her mother's plans on killing her wouldn't change but she would have to either run away or ...she didn't know.

Her eyes looked at the man before she covered her curvy form with her purple robe. "I'll go get dressed ..." She announced while walking toward the door where she opened it and gave the knight a small smile "Can you call my maid?" She questioned quietly and looked at the woman. She had already chosen what to wear and she needed help with her corset and the whole dressing up. Even though Adora was getting irritated by their conversation she was glad he didn't push her further. When she asked her to call for her maid she paused before nodding.

"Yes your majesty. She should be here soon judging by what time it is but I will make sure she is" She spoke formally before mumbling for the prince to not hear "Are you comfy with me leaving you alone with him..? It'll only be about 10 minutes" The feline smiled at her concerns. She only placed a hand on her shoulder and rubbed her to show she would be alright "Don't worry... Go. I'll be fine" She didn't feel comfortable with him but that didn't mean she wouldn't have to stay alone with him for a while. She only pulled away and closed the door behind her. She walked to the room only to find the man in the bathroom so she took off her clothes. She stared at her thighs while remembering how Adora had treated them and smiled slightly. Her eyes looked at them for a couple of seconds, touching the bandages and daydreaming about the girl till she snapped out of it and decided to put on her shift dress. She chose her favourite light purple over the knee stockings to wear and sat down to put them on. They were decorated to her ankles with the symbol of her nation and her hands tied up her white garters just above her knees. Her short body slid inside her white petticoat only to place her corset on her torso and wait for her maid to help her. The woman wanted to wear a beautiful lilac dress with long sleeves and an opening for her cleavage to show.

The knight came back only a few minutes later. She ran into her companion at about the halfway point between the two rooms, escorting her there not so subtly in a rush. She knocked on the door before opening it and allowed her companion to enter, just freezing for a moment when she saw her. Her eyes widened slightly before clearing her throat softly. The feline was only with her purple corset loose and her white petticoat. It was the first time she saw her without having her corset tied up so..she was..stunned. The night they came close it was too late to see her body with clothes on. How beautiful she looked with such colours on her; she only wondered.

"I was right, your majesty.. I caught your companion on the way here.." She paused before bowing "I um-... I'll be right outside the door if you need anything else... And will accompany the both of you to breakfast once more" "Thank you... I only need some help with my dress and we are ready to go-"

"Catra, you shouldn't appear to knights like this" The woman got interrupted by the man as he glared at the knight. He clearly didn't like that girl. She was too manly for a lady to be and too rebellious for her position. The feline looked at him and crossed her arms over her chest "I'm wearing my undergarments.... The corset is not as important.."
