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...
"This is simply outrageous, it's beyond redemption for someone who's so darn daring enough to ran away with our Queen," stormed Sariel furiously as he slammed his fist hard upon the desk.
"Are you certain that the Queen has been forcefully taken away? Or perhaps, she herself might have fled?" Asked Licht as he place his fingers under his chin.
"Fled? Why would she fled? That's probably the last thing she would do. I believe our Queen will stay on even if Orien under attack." Commented Luke.
"The disappearance of our Queen should not be known outside, cause if this news were to leak, the chances of Orien to be taken will be steep." Noun Sariel grimly.
"Apart from us here, who else knew about this matter?" Asked Licht.

"Only us. I've already informed all of our officials that our Queen is resting for several weeks.." explained Sariel.
"Good thinking Sariel.." state Luke. "But still I will be sending out my scouts and spy to find William, cause I strongly believe our Queen disappearance has something to do with him.."
"Yes, that is definitely necessary. I will engage few bounty hunters to hunt for his head. Cause if he's the culprit, what he did is simply unforgivable.." mark Sariel as his gaze slits narrowly with a darkening note.
***************************************** Meanwhile Back In The Woods
"I didn't know that my Queen is quite a handful in the kitchen.." utters Will as he took another huge bite upon the bake honey chicken.
I smile beamingly as I look at him, taking few more bites upon my dish. "Theo used to say that too. He said, I'm gifted and he even got a kitchen chamber built just for me.."
Suddenly I grew shudder, just the thought upon Theo, had really sunken my spirit into a colourless note. I truly miss him and right till now, I just couldn't accept the fact that Theo is no more...
Will immediately places his fork upon the table as he gently took my hand and said, "Sephira, I hope you will truly forgive me.. I will do everything that I can to protect you and Orien. I swear, Theo's death will be justified.."
"Will, I believe you, I do. It just, I'm already so happy and contend to be here with you by my side. Probably, we should just forget about Orien, Kherash..all this unfinished battles..just leave all this behind us for good.." I said. I knew I sound kind of selfish for having those thoughts, for leaving Orien and my citizens to fend on their own but I'm fully confident with Sariel, Licht and my other ministers capabilities of ruling Orien without me by their side..
"Are you sure about this Sephira? You wiling to leave your royalties benefits and life just to be here with me?" Asked Will as he grip upon my hand even more firmly.
I nodded my head and then it's my turn to ask, "How about you Will?"
Will remain silent with his eyes gazing intensely towards mine. From those eyes, I could tell he's not willing to leave all that behind. However, I understand, he's a Prince of Kherash and Kherash is part of him, it is his responsibility.
"Sephira, when I was assigned by Nokto to be part of the envoy to Orien, the first thing that had come into my mind is vengeance.." mark Will but with a grimace tone.
"Did Orien past Rulers had done something terrible to Kherash?" I asked grimly.
Will quickly places his hand upon my cheek and lightly caressed it. I lay that side of my cheek upon his palm with my gaze still locking into his.
"It's all forgotten now.." utters Will with a smile. "Because the moment I saw you, I just couldn't. And then I asked myself? Is it worth it to pursue my senseless goal but forever to loose something which could be so precious to me?"
I could already felt my eyes begins to glimmer with tears. He's willing to put aside his crude intentions for the sake of our love. I couldn't doubt him anymore. The risk of loving him is worth taking.
"But Sephira, I can't forsake Kherash at this moment.." suddenly he said. "I must free my people from Nokto's ruthless ruling.."
I lightly nodded my head but Will had seem to notice the dismay look marks on my face.
"I reassured you, I will not let your hopes faltered again.." utters Will as he tenderly caresses the side of my cheek.
"No Will, it's not I'm doubting you, it's just, I'm afraid, what if you are hurt, what if something terrible happened? I can't live with that.. I can't.." I mutters, my voice shaken..
"Sweeting, you won't be loosing me that easily.." he jested bubbly as he playfully tugged my nose. "Cause I've got plans. I will be leading a troop of my own to free Kherash and also to defend Orien. I've eventually had managed to gain trust of many local men of Orien, Aren and also majority citizens of Kherash to join forces with me. They truly can't endure Nokto's ruthless ways of ruling us. Nokto and his men has been terrorising the simple folks, forcefully taking away their crops, farms, lands and their women. I need to help them and defend them. Me and my revolution army will fight against Kherash troops.
"Will, I'm with you on this. Do what is necessary for your people." I finally said as I begin to feel the light of courage had ignited my heart.
Will smiled brightly as his eyes lit with a splendid note of valiant and as gently as I could, I places both my palms upon his chisel jawlines and said, "I will pray for you Will and I swear, I will faithfully wait for your return.."

Will pull me and held me close in his arms. "Thank you Sephira. And I promise you, you will be the rightful Queen of Orien. Both Orien and Kherash will stand tall again.."
