Slayer turned Saviour

Wife...?

A ray of sunlight stroked her face. She could hear the chirping of birds which was like a soothing music to her ears.It was as if even the birds were at peace and were rejoicing just like her heart was.She stretched her arms and tried to open her eyes...yes, tried. The thing was, she was not an early riser. She had no difficulty in sustaining the long hours of training but when it came to waking up early, she felt it like the most difficult thing she had to do.

Just sleep for some time more Imlie, she told herself.
You are not even supposed to do any training or mission or any work. No one will scold you here.
She giggled to herself and was going back to sleep when a sudden realisation hit her of her surroundings.

She woke up in an instant and searched around for him.

Where was he?
Maybe he left.

She was searching frantically for him and finally found him sleeping in a sitting position at the entrance of the cave with his eyes closed.

Then she remembered their last night conversation more kind of an embarrassing ordeal.

"I think we should lie down. It is quite late."

"Huh?"

"Sleep Imlie. I said we should sleep.You must be exhausted."

"I knew it. How could I ever think that you are any different?"she mumbled to herself.

He saw her giving odd expressions while mumbling to herself.

"What are you talking about?"he frowned.

"What am I...? Do not pretend like you are not aware of what I am talking about, your highness. You might be a royalty and all but I am also a person and let me tell you...very brave one at that. I can fight really well. You have not even seen the half of what I could do?"

What does sleep has to do anything with me being royalty and her fighting skills?he thought.

Yes Aryan it is confirmed. She is crazy and you are even crazier that you fell for her, he smiled to himself.

When she saw him smiling to himself, she took her sword and pointed at him, "So now my fencing skills are also not worthy enough to be taken into your account. You thought what an alone woman could do! I will show you what I can do."

She started attacking him meanwhile Prince did not even take out his sword. He was just easily avoiding her every move. It went for a while when Aryan thought it was enough now.

He grabbed her arm and bent it backwards, "What is wrong with you Imlie? I mean I know insanity lives rent free in your head but can I atleast know the reason?"

She grimaced and pointed finger at with her free hand, "You....You are calling me insane. "

"Well if you have different term for insane. Do tell me. I will call you that."

"Urghhh! Leave my hand, you Ajeeb Bikat Praani" she yelled at him.

"Whatttt! What did you call me?" She was now testing his patience. He did not have an ounce of an idea about why she was splurging things which made no sense that too at such a late hour.

"Ajeeb Bikat Praani...I said leave my hand. Or else..."

" Or else what Imlie? First explain me what is going on in that weird head of yours?"

Before Prince could comprehend anything else, he felt a shooting pain in his hand.

" Owwww...Jungli" he screamed.

He saw his hand where she bit him. Yes that was right. She bit him and that too so hard that her teeth marks were visible on his hand.

" What is wrong with you woman?"
