I turn my head to see the Fire Prince, I try spotting anything irregular, something that might kill him but there's nothing here.

I shake my head, laugh escaping me.
"You clearly are stupid if you think I care about him!" My pale eyes stare around until I look back at Ash who just smiles.

"Oh come on snowflake, I thought you would have a bit more compassion in you." Prince Ash vented with a chuckle, but I was busy scanning the weirdly shaped trees that seemed to zoom in closer.

"If you leave now, I will ask Marcus for a favour." His red eyes twinkle, knowing he has succeeded in making me uneasy. Because really the only favour he could ask of Marcus is to violate Anna.

"You wouldn't." I glower my cold breath becoming strained as Fire Prince continued to grin as if he knew something I didn't.

"Oh I would." He now stood in front of me, there were flames in his irises, fiery burning fire that hid many unleashed meanings. I struggled to restrain my ragged shallow breaths. Even his presence burned me.

"Through my dead body he's touching or coming near Anna." I threaten but my voice rushes out like a strangled cat, wanting to find escape. The Fire Prince leans closer until his lips trail the side of my cheek, the contact makes my flesh sting, I shut my eyes feeling light-headed, heart beat accelerating and vision dizzy.

"Am I scaring you snowflake?" The red eyes travelled across my figure, letting out another shallow breath I felt drained off energy, unable to even keep my sword, which drops from my hand crashing loudly on the ground.

"Not at all." The hoarse tone in my voice sends Ash roaring in laughter, his usual, murderous, contagiously hot sound that fanned against my ear-drums like a fly that I wanted to slap away.

"What about now?" The long slender fingertips brushes roughly against my face, the fire radiating from the tips pushing me to melt.

"You're dangerous, you're lethal." I suppress when his arms wrap securely around my waist, keeping me standing. I collapse against his chest, not able to keep myself standing, the heat drained me, but I desired his hands off me much more.

"Aren't you too? I've heard rumours about you. We can fill the Kingdom, just you and me." Ash's deep voice fills my head, and I pledged a whimper, trembling hands having so little energy to move.

"I will never choose you." Groaning and twisting I struggle to push the Fire Prince further distance, which is none really. Since he was persistent on keeping me mushed against his side. If only I had enough power to freeze him in an ice cube and serve to the polar bears as a snack.

"Who then? Owen? Did you know he talks to other Princes, saying how gullible you are." Ash states with a grunt that follows with a chuckle. I furrow my eyebrows thrusting him away, his arms loosen around me and so I fly to the ground, my back meeting the hard rocks.

"No he doesn't!" I shriek covering my ears with the back of my palms.

"He kissed you, didn't he?" I still somehow hear his voice ringing in my brain, speaking whatever it is he wishes. I look straight him in the eyes, "That's none of your business!"

"Silly girl...he doesn't care. He wants your Kingdom, he doesn't want you." Now my heart sets into an overdrive running low on fuel, my insides shattering like fragile glass. Owen didn't like me?

"NO DON'T SAY THAT!" The scream leaves my shaking lips. Ash kneels in front of me his hot hands touching my knees gently, there is a pause before his mouth begins to move.
