Not a Slave!!!

Chapter 5

*Bhairavi Pov*

I curled up more in the warmth and felt all the tiredness leaving my flesh after taking that King's life for my parents. Now everything will be better after I return to my Kingdom and try to fulfill my parents wishes regarding the ruling.

"Princess, you can wake up now." I heard a voice and I followed it's suit opening my eyes and stared at someone hovering up near me.

"Who are you?" I questioned the person frowning while rubbing my eyes.

"Again with the question, Lass. And will you not open your eyes until you are gestured as Princess?" He questioned in mockery.

His voice feels to be very familiar and I abruptly sat up to see that he is the warrior I fought with and also from whom I jumped into the ocean after hearing that I am now his Slave.

"Stay away from me." I uttered backing away and stared back into his eyes.

"We are near my land, lass. Now get down and get yourself bind." He said backing away to give me some space to get down.

"Do you feel that I am a wee baby? Why would I follow your words blindly which has my loss?" I questioned him and glanced around the small room for some kind of thing with which I can fight him and ran away.

"I am just giving a chance in which it doesn't involve me in hurting you." He replied shrugging before stepping near me holding the ropes.

I started removing the blankets and saw that my attire is changed into some lad's apparel. I stared at the man before me and mumbled "Please do tell me that you have a maid in this vessel."

"Why do we need one for?" He questioned back.

"Then who changed my apparel?" I questioned him getting down from the cot.

"I did!" he replied with a shrug.

"How could you?" I asked pushing him back with all the anger that some unknown man changed my apparel.

"You were soaked and needed to be changed otherwise your life would have left your flesh. I would have been happy to witness that, but with the honor I have in me, I couldn't sit back." He said pushing me back and started binding my hands when my glance was at him.

"Why are you binding me?" I questioned him tugging my hands away.

At the same moment I heard a knock on the door this small room has, making me frown at it. And then it got opened, revealing two men standing near the door.

"We are here, Alastair." One man mumbled while the other just gave me a smile.

"Where is here?" I questioned them.

"Nadir!" the man with the smile replied making me frown.

"Where is Nadir?" I questioned them again.

"We all are tired from all the travelling and the war. Now hush your questions and move." The man whose name is Alastair mumbled holding me in his arms and I slapped them away before walking towards the door.

I need to know where this place is before doing anything and start my journey towards Agatha. How can I trust them to reveal my title to them?

They did a war in an unethical way with some liquid and which makes them similar to Ramsey. I need to be silent about that matter and need to find a way.

"I gestured you as Princess just once. So you need not act like one and move with speed." Alastair barked from behind me.

"Just because I wore a lad's attire, that doesn't change the fact that I am a lass." I retorted back in normal tone making many warriors around us laugh.
