A Fox's Love

Bai Ying POV
After hanging out at the Xie's estate we went home. I had my head on my sisters lap all the way home. I woke up the next day and went to eat. " Ying'er" My mom said. I looked up at her in response. " You feeling better" she said with a worried expression plastered on her face. I smiled at her " Don't worry mom I'm feeling much better" I said and she nodded. " Good cause I wanted to borrow you today" My sister said. " For what?" I asked. " Help me with my wedding gifts for Xie Lie" She said. " Ooooo right" I said and she just smiled. " Okay" I said. After eat I went back to my room and washed up and changed. After I meet my sister outside and we rode down to the main market. We got out the carriage and walked from shop to shop. We passed a dress shop and my sister stopped me " Bai Ying" she said. " Yes?" I said. " Let me run into here real quick. I be right back stay here" she said. I nodded as she ran up the stairs and into the shop. I was outside for thirty minutes when someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around to see two dudes dressed in all black. " Yes..." I said nervously. They didn't respond and then I felt a hard hit on my neck and blacked out. I woke up hours later and saw nothing but a bit of sunlight. I tried to stand but couldn't because my hands and legs was tied. I started to panic when I suddenly heard the door slam open. Something was ripped from my head and I looked into see my attacker. " Y-Your Majesty..." I said in a soft voice. " You... really do look like him" He said. " Like... him?" I questioned. He sighed and held his head down. " They should have just left you with me. I would have taken such good care of you" He said as he creased my face. Suddenly three guys walking in and His Majesty stood up and walked out. I started to panic again as they step closer and closer to me. I closed my eyes and waited for the worse to come until I heard the door slam open again and there was fighting noises. I opened my eyes to the guys fighting someone with a half face mask on. Soon the fighting stopped with the man who had kidnapped me lying on the floor. The masked man stepped closer to me and I closed my eyes. " Don't worry, I'm not here to kill you" he said. 'That voice' I thought to myself. I opened my eyes " Xie Lie?" I said. I heard a soft chuckle " You remember I see" he said as he began to untie me. He helped me up " Thank you" I said and he just nodded. We walked outside and he helped me on his horse. He hopped onto his horse and we rode all the way back to my house. When we reached my house I got off the horse and thanked him again before running into my house. " MOM?!" I yelled. I heard feet behind me and I turned around to see my mom, dad and older sister. " Y-Ying'er" my mom said with a shaking voice. I ran to her and hugged her tightly. My mom began crying as she held my face. After a while we sat down at a table. " What happened? Who took you?" My sister asked. " That I don't know... their faces was all covered... so was my savior" I said. " What do we do" my sister asked my father. " Knowing that he's still alive I'm sure the person behind this won't give up and seeing that I'll be leaving the house next week to live in the palace I sure they will strike again" My father said. " How about he lives with me" my sister said. " With you Song?" My mother said. My sister nodded her head " Yeah, no one would suspect he's there so he won't get kidnapped again. That way we can find out who is behind all of this and why" My sister said and my father nodded. " She has a good point" my father said. " Okay, tomorrow when the prince come we will ask if he's okay with Bai Ying staying with you" My father said and my sister nodded. " It's getting late" my mother said. " Let's all go to sleep for now". We all got up and I went with my sister to her room. I slept with her that night and woke up the next morning a bit earlier than anyone else. I walked out my sisters room and walked in the garden we have. As I was walking I saw a fox sleeping under a tree. I slowly went up to it and sat down. It woke up and looked at me. " I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you" I said and the fox leaned it head on me. " You like me?" I said with a smile. The fox nodded and I smiled. " Me too" I picked it up and sat it on my lap. I began petting it " I wonder? Would the prince let me bring you with me to the palace" I said to myself and the fox looked up at me. " Even if he didn't I would sneak you in" I said with a smile. " Ying'er!!" I heard someone call. " I've got to go" I said as I sat the fox back on the grass. I stood up and said my goodbyes before running away. " Bai Song!" I yelled and ran to my sister. She smiled and gave me a hug. " Where were you?" She asked. " In the garden" I said. " Hurry up and get ready Xie Lie will get here in any minute now" She said. " Okay" I said and ran to my room and got myself ready. A couple of minutes later the prince arrived. " Mr. And Mrs. Bai" He greeted. My father smiled and nodded. " It's good to see you again but we would like to discuss something important to you as well" My father said as he walked towards Xie Lie. " Please" My father said. Xie Lie and my father walked out the room and I heard a little cry. I looked back to see the fox from earlier. " What was that?" My mother said. I ran to the fox and picked it up. " Just my fox" I said. " Your...Fox?" My mother said. " Yeah" I turned around with it and my mother's face froze " Isn't he cute... Mom?" I said. " Sorry I have to go with your father about the discussion" my mother said before leaving the room. " What's wrong with her" I whispered and I pet my fox. I set my fox down and he ran away. Soon after the doors open again and it was my father, mother and Xie Lie. " He has agreed." My father said with a booming voice. I ran to my sister and hugged her. " Bai Ying you go get ready as I have a quick word with your mother" my father said. I nodded and ran out the room to began packing.
