So far the plan was going smoothly they've announced that they found a new trainer.
So we were instructed to get ready and report to the training room.
I pull on some black shorts and a loose long sleeve shirt. I slide my shoes on and head to the training room.

"Raina guards up!"
"Raina pay attention!"
"Raina your forms to sloppy!"
I huff in frustration anger seeping into my pores. Everything felt confining the stone walls sucking the life out of me as Christians voice pummels my heart. It felt like someone was squeezing my lungs. My shirt stuck uncomfortably to my skin and my hair plasters to my head.My injured heart thumps to a broken beat while my mind puts awful thoughts in my head.
"Raina"
Your useless
I punch the bag
"Raaiina"
You dont matter
I punch again harder
Your gonna die and no one will care
I quickly spin and kick the bag
"RAINA"
I turn to Christian
"What! Whats wrong this time is my form not good enough. Or am I getting sloppy. WHAT THE HECK IS IT CHRISTIAN" my face is wet with sweat or tears i cant tell. He grabs my clenched fist "practice is over" i look around seeing the room was empty.
I yank my hands from his grasps. I take a few breaths trying to compose myself."Care to give me a little insight on the mental break down" he says tossing me a water bottle
I take a long sip "No"
I examine my bruised and split knuckles. Wincing when i flex my hands. I finish my water bottle crumpling it as Im tossing it into the trash Paul enters.
"Ah just person i was looking for" he says eyeing me
"What do you mean?"
"The prince has asked to see you and i am to escort you to his living quarters." With a faint nod i lead the way out the training room not glancing to see if he follows.
I wait patiently outside the room until Paul exits.
He was about to say something but i cut him off "lead the way" i say motioning down the hall. He clenches his jaw and starts walking.
⚜
"Come in!" The prince says from inside his room.
My heart races for some reason as i enter the room. Paul had left when we arrived on the hallway so it was just me and the prince."You wanted to see me?"
"Yeah...so about that..well..um"
I quirk an eyebrow and a light blush covers his cheeks. "I heard what Paul was planning and i want to help" i choke "where-did you-hear-that" i say through coughs.
"In the gardens i happened to be passing through-"
"-at midnight?" I ask incredulously there was a curfew even for the royals minus the queen and those over 18.
"Yes" he says
We sit in silence
"Let me bandage those" he says motioning to my hands
"No its fine i can take care of it"
"I insist" he says giving me the 'your not winning this' look
I sigh "fine"
He smiles brightly "this will be fun"
⚜
Im currently sitting on a toilet while the prince examines my hand."Stop that you idiot" i say swatting his hand "thats clearly bruised why would you poke it"
"Because"
"Because what"
"Because i want to"
I roll my eyes "your unbelievable"
"Unbelievably handsome" he replies.
I shake my head smiling to myself."I've come to a conclusion" he says getting out bandages and antiseptic "you wont need stitches"
"Clearly" i snort
He gives me a sharp look " what",i say holding my hands up, "I'm just saying i could've figured that out a while ago. If i didn't know better I'd say your keeping me here because you like my company"
He rolls his eyes smiling "As if"
I huff "i have feelings you know"
"And i dont care"
Well the jerk has come back to party.
