The Truth Behind the Wings- ON HOLD for a while...sorry :(

Chapter 8- Dakota Valentine- Unexpected

*This song has nothing to do with the story...I used to be obssessed with this! It's amazing xD*

"All done." Sienna smiled at my reflection. "You are recovering at a great pace Your Majesty."

"Yes." I smiled and studied my bandaged stomach from different angles while Sienna put my medicines and ointments away.

It had been more than week since I got stabbed and two days since I could move out of bed. King Devlyn visited me regularly...as expected of him. We seem to have become closer now. We talked about anything and everything. 

He turned out to be a very sweet, caring person. A King who would do anything for his people. A perfect man. A perfect husband--

"Princess?"

"Yes, Sienna?" I carefully put on a loose, cream colored dress with my maid's help.

The wound on my stomach was slowly healing but I was not allowed to put any unecessary pressure on it. Apparently, the knife which was staked through me was poisoned. Whoever tried to kill me was very conniving. What scared me most were her black eyes filled with pure hatred. I was sure that I had never seen her before yet she seemed soo fimiliar...

"Your Highness, lunch will be served with in twenty minutes." Another servant walked in and announced. "I hope that you are doing well today Princess."

"I am..thank you." I gave a smile before saying. "Excuse me ladies. I'd like to go out on a walk."

"Alone?" Sienna gasped horrified.

"Yes." I nodded.

"B-But Your Highness, y-ou can't go alone! You might be attacked again. The criminal hasn't been caught yet..." she cried and the other agreed with her.

"Be optimistic Sienna." I reprimanded crossing my arms around my chest. "I'll be carefull..I promise."

"Your Highness.."

"If you don't hear from me within the next ten minutes, come and look for me...alright?" I sighed.

"But-alright." Sienna tried to give me a smile.

"Great. Excuse me."

The wind was enticing my skin with a soft caress gently stroking every strand of my hair. I sighed happily. I had loved the mother nature ever since I was five and my father, Serana and I had gone camping. It was the most thrilling adventure of my life. It was like a fascinating dream to me while Serean thought other wise.

The gentle rush of the river. The melodious chirp of the birds. The scent of grass and nature everywhere...

All of a sudden, I heard soft, delighted moans and mingled whispers somewhere close by. Instinctively, I followed the sound and stopped three feet away from a man interwined with a woman in a heated embrace. 

The man, from what I could make out, was very attractive. He had gold, curly locks. His jaw hinted intense masculinity. His height and athletic figure just enhanced it even more. I tried to guess his eye color for his eyes were hidden, closed behind his heavy eye lashes. Brown...no Amber...they had to be...or maybe green...

Upon further inspection, I realized that the woman with the stranger was no one else but my personal maid, Lara. 

So that is where she has been upto...I couldn't help but smile. 

Lara was very pretty and she deserved someone who loved her. Maybe he was the one. To me, his presence screamed prestige and nobilty. My smile grew only wider. This was great.

I realized that it had been more than fifteen minutes since I left my room unescorted. The servants must have sent a search party already. I turned around and hurried to my room leaving the couple alone.

"Good Afternnon Princess." Devlyn got up from his chair and gave a tense smile to Dakota before adding. "I'd like you to meet someone Dakota..."

Aqua blue! The stranger had blue eyes...

I thought as I stared at the same stranger standing in front of me with an assessing look on his face as his eyes roamed up and down my body. I blushed slightly and looked away.

"He is my brother...Nicholas...your husband..."

My mouth fell open as the word 'husband' echoed in mind.
