Love at first sight? Could this be real? Or it is just a phase..Hmmm, those phase which can be quite substantial to some pure believers, but kind of skeptical to me..
However, my perspective change when the first time I saw you..
You captivates me...
As I felt myself sinking deeper into the darkest pit of the lake, suddenly I felt strong arms enclosing my ailing form, lightly carries me back up to the surface. I saw the gleaming stars getting closer and closer and I felt the warm touch of my saviour.
My saviour? No..it could still be him, the monster..
"No..no..please let go of me..please, don't.." I cried as I struggled weakly in his arms.
"You are safe now Princess.." he mutters with a heave breath of relieve.
"No.. I don't want this..please don't hurt me.." I cried as I continue to shut my eyes not wanting to had my gaze upon Nokto again.
I felt my form has been gently place on his lap and then I felt his fingers tenderly caresses my brows, my eyes and my cheeks. "Nobody is going to hurt you Princess..I'm here..see.." he whispered.
That voice, I fluttered my eyes open and it's him..my Knight, my saviour. "Will.." I mutters and soon I realised, I'm not properly covered, most part of my body were almost bared, thanks to that horrible beast. I quickly drew my hands up upon my chest as I try to shield them.
Will quickly looks away and then he took off his drench jacket and wrapped it around the front part of my body..
I couldn't contain my emotions anymore as I begins to sob and wept silently. Will held me in his arms, gently caressing my hair and whispered, telling me everything is alright..

"I can't go back. I can't be with Nokto. I rather die, then to be thrown back in his arms.." I plead hoping Will will simply take me away from all this terrifying ordeal.
"Please forgive me Princess, my loyalty lies in Kherash. I hope you will understand my position. Please, let me take you back to your castle.."
I tore my gaze away from him, trying to fight that disappointment cast locks in my eyes. Suddenly I felt his finger lightly lifting up my chin. "I was resting on the other side of the lake, and suddenly I heard the rustling sound of the shrubs. As I looked up, suddenly I saw you had already jumped into the lake. My heart froze with fear and I knew, I need to save you.. I..can't lose you.."
"Take me Will.." I utters faintly.
"What ?" He asked, his voice shaken..
"I had rather you devour me then to be cruelly taken by him.." I noun.
"He's your betrothed. He's got the right on you.."
"Right? To rape me is right?" I asked in disbelieving note. "Not only me, I'm sure he had done these terrible things to the other woman which he fancies." I paused and then I continue to say, "I can't believe, my fate to be written as such. I've never been close to any man, never at all. His nearness scares me, I've never felt so afraid not until today.." I tremble, my words are shaken.
Will lightly caresses few streaks of my hair and gently pushed them behind my ears. His face came close to mine, and I felt his warm breath fanning my ears, neck and cheeks. I close my eyes as I felt kind of ease and calm. Suddenly I felt his fingers lightly grazing my cheeks and my lips. I gasped and had almost moan. "I will not let anyone hurt you again. I promise.." he said.
