Garroth's POV

This was it. Today was the day that I would reveal my secret to Aphmau. I trust her enough to keep it a secret. I hope she won't be to shocked. I'm so nervous.

Aphmau's POV

I put on my purple dress and braided my hair a bit. I decided to wear a flower crown. I put on my flower crown and left my house. I walked down to the guard station and looked for Garroth. I haven't seen him all day. I wonder were he is? Oh! That's right! He wanted to talk with me! " Garroth?" I called. " I'm here Aphmau." I turned around to see a man. He had blonde hair that was swooped over to the side of his head. He also had sky blue eyes. " Garroth i-is that you? " I asked. " Yes. It is." He answered sweetly.

" Y-You took your helmet off" I stuttered out a few words. " Heh ya..let me explain why I didn't take my helmet off before this.." He looked at me with his gorgeous sky blue eyes. " Wow..I never would have expected you to look like this.." I muttered. " What? Do you not like the way I look?" He asked.

" NO NO NO! ITS NOT THAT ITS JUST THAT YOU LOOK A LOT DIFFERENT THEN I HAD IMAGINED....!" I blurted out. " Heh..Oh..Do you think I look hot?" He asked. " GARROTH!?" I scolded. I could feel my whole face heating. " Heheheh.. I just wanted to get under your skin. You look cute flustered." He smiled. I felt my face heating even more. " S-So how come you were hiding your face." I stuttered a little bit. " Do you remember back when I saved you from Zane?" He asked. " Ya. Of course I do. It was only a month ago." I smiled. " Well, if you didn't know. Zane is the youngest of the three princes of O'khasis. People call him the High Priest Of O'khasis because he is a priest as well and a very well known one too, being high in reputation already ." He explained. " Ya but what does this have to do w-" " We're getting there." Garroth explained. " Do you know about the oldest prince running away because of the forced marriage?" He asked.

" Ya. Of course I do. It's a big deal. Everyone is talking about it!" I told him. " Yes. Well the princess of Scaleswind ran away as well and her name is Nicole." He looked at the ground. " and the eldest prince's name is Garroth." He looked back at me. I was in shock. He's the prince of O'khasis. His bother is...Zane. The one who captured and imprisoned my mother and killed my town, but Garroth is nothing like him. I bowed my head. He was a prince this whole time and I'm a lord now? I felt geers turning in my head. I could tell that he was about to walk away. " I don't care." I looked up at him. He turned around and looked at me. " I don't care if your the prince or whatever. You can still stay here." I said

" R-Really?" He asked. " How come you ran away?" I tilted my head. " I didn't love Nicole and she didn't love me. I ran away to find the woman I truly loved and when I found out that Zane was out for those Irene powers that your mother had, I new that if Zane got ahold of those powers...then there would be no stopping him. So I set out a plan for a rescue mission. " Garroth explained.

' So that's why Zane was after me and my mother.. I pretty much new that already but its good to make sure. '

" Did you find her?" I asked. " what?" Garroth looked at me confused. " Did you find the woman you love?" " As a matter a fact. I did." He smiled. My heart shattered. I love him even more now from hearing his back story. but he already found the one he loves. " Who is she?" I unwillingly asked, my lip started to quiver. I probably looked super sad. " Your so silly." Garroth chuckled " I'm looking at her" He smiled and then leaned in and I felt a pare of lips land on mine. I could feel my face on fire as I kissed him back.
