Please Don't Eat Me, Your Highness

Chapter : 14

Evelyn happily roam around the rose garden. Her plump milky white figure was very conspicuous among the blue and green. Ahhh.... Nothing is better than living a lazy life.

She basked in the warm sun and meditated. A scene flashed by her mind when Alexander was departing for the expedition.

Flashback~~

Heavy boots sounded on the floor, Evelyn was laying on a book and reading when she was lifted on the air and suddenly bitten on her fragile neck.

It didn't hurt but she certainly knew who the culprit was. She struggled a bit but was soon patted down by the cold fingers of the man.

After a while she could feel him salvaging her. Alexander released her neck and gently kissed the bitten area although the movement was so light that the angry little rabbit didn't notice it.

She turned over hopping on the table and glared at the Prince. Alexander just looked at her without a hint of guilt and announced with his deep voice.

"I am going on an expedition".Dumbfounded by the sudden news the pink rabbit eyes stared at him confused. One big and one small stared at each other.

" It'll take awhile for me to come back ", in a rare occasion Alexander explained about it briefly. Evelyn was a bit lost. Although he sometimes bothered her but she was closest to him the most in this palace.

She suddenly came up with a idea hopping on his lap she pointed at her, a little expectantly.

Alexander understood her meaning and his heart became happy. However, his face was as expressionless as it could be. " You cannot come"

Evelyn never thought he would reject her. Looking stunned her mouth opened slightly , foolish and cute. Alexander smiled and tapped her soft forehead.

"It's dangerous out there so you cannot come this time little one"

And after thinking for awhile he added, "If you grow up, I'll take you with me then".Alexander then suddenly bent to her eye level and kissed her on the nose.

The stunned little rabbit turned from pale to pink to red.There was a slight smile playing on Alexander's thin lips he stood up and left.

End of Flashback

Evelyn humped thinking of the hateful panther. But he really was charming! She wondered if there would come a day when she'll be able to speak to him.

To Thank Him!

Footsteps could be heard in the rose garden. Evelyn looked up at the source of sound and was somewhat dazed by the scene.

Alexander strode towards her in his formal attire. His long legs carried the mature charm of a leader. His slightly disheveled hair added wildness. He was like the king of beasts roaming in his territory.

When their eyes met, time seems to have stopped. Alexander's eyes bent  and he came closer to her, picking the soft fur ball. "Did you miss me so much that you became foolish "

Evelyn came back to her senses and smacked her paws on his hand. So hateful!
Alexander smiled and bought out something from his pocket. He took out a glowing bracelet and put it on her hind leg.

Evelyn looked down curiously and was awed by the pink studded jewel bracelet hanging on her delicate white feet.
She shook her little feet, and the little gourd on it trembled.

She looked up and Alexander was also looking her her. "Not bad".He smiled and took her to the palace.
They went to the study . " Greetings your highness, the little sun of the empire ".

Alexander nodded sitting on his chair. He placed the white milk bun on his lap. Several people discovered her existence, but they only dared to look at her in surprise and didn’t say anything.

One by one the employees stared to report. Evelyn's little feet moved, and the little jewel on top made it more delicate and beautiful. She is pricking up her ears, listening to to explanation.

while Alexander was listening to the reports, he gently pinched the tip of her ear to play with his hand, and her body kept going weak.

I said, don’t play with my ears!

After the meeting ended, they went back to the bedchamber. Alexander went for a bath and came back after a while. They both had dinner. But Evelyn sometimes noticed Alexander staring at her.

Confused she looked at his blue orbs asking why? Alexander just tapped her pale pink nose saying, "You've practiced well".

Evelyn was inexplicably proud. She puffed up her furry chest in a boasting manner .'Of course! I am a diligent rabbit I mean person'.

Alexander laughed slightly. He walked to the window with his wine glass. He was sitting on the sill gazing out the dark sky. The wind blew messing his silky dark hair.

'What an eye candy!!! ' Evelyn thought to herself but quickly shook off those thoughts. If this panther knew she would be mocked again.
