Blossoms on fire

Chapter 6

EDITED

Days passed and I did not walk out. I see only Ave. I locked myself in this room. I did not want to see anyone else than Ave. But after the second day, I unlocked it from fear. I do not know why but I felt very weird so I let the doors open.

The third day in the morning I wake up quite early. Dressed in petticoat I choose to wear some thin coat and I get dressed in it.

Then I silently walked out from my room and started to head to the gardens. The way took me ten minutes because I got lost in the long corridors of this large and very big royal palace.

The view on gardens very beautiful the sun just rises. I was amazed. everything was perfect. I cannot see any flaw at this beginning of this day. I felt so much better. Luca's words are still in a piece of my mind but they are not the main stuff I am thinking about. So I am happy a little.

Even the break from princes was desirable. Even one day and I am exhausted. I am here five days already and I cannot find my way through these troubles coming to me. 

While I was thinking all this stuff I come to some bench. It was from wood and it was decorated with flowers. I love it. The one who made it loves his job because I can see that it has been done with love.

I sit and I look around the gardens. They were beautiful so much. Many scents were colliding in one so sweet and attractive one.

I got a dreamy in this place. So I did not hear the one who was calling me.

'Nora!' someone yells at me.

'Why?' I say to myself.

'Nora, why are you here?' asks Ren.

'Ren.' I call him.

He gets closer to me and he starts acting very confused.

'Nora.' he calls me.

I am quiet.

'Why are you here and why are you dressed in this? You will be cold and the ceremony would be postponed. I do not want to wait on you.' he says.

'So do not wait if you do not want.' I tell him.

'What?' he asks very confusedly and angry.

'I wanted to go outside without waking up Ave. So do not yell. And second, you ruined this silent session of mine. I need to rest. So give me please one day off, please.'  I tell him.

I tried to leave and simply walk off. But he catches my wrist. His face changes in an angry one.

'You are not going anywhere! You are going to marry me!' he yells at me.

'I was trying to get you on my side. And you are trying to get away from me...' he starts.

'Why? Why were you trying to get on my side?' I ask him.

'Why? Dumb question. I am not the firstborn so if Noor did not take you to us he will be ruling first and then he would make family and his firstborn rule after him. I can't be the ruler of Rouka even if I am the son of a king! But I am fucking thirdborn! ' he says.

'Twins are the same! Maybe your whole family.' I say.

He was even angrier because I compared him to his twin.

'I am not like Luca!' he yells.

'You did not prove it!' I say and stamp on his right foot. He screams in agony and is jumping around holding his feet in the air.

Then I see someone running towards us. It is Sian. Sian comes to us. We are very close. He touches my hand and he wants to leave with me.

'Brother. She is mine. So do not touch her.' says Ren.

'She is not yours yet. So if she does not mind I am taking her with me. Because you are not treating her right.' Sian says.

Sian starts to get away from his brother. And I do not mind it. Sian is my saviour. He is so sweet and so caring. I like him. And he saved me from Ren. Ren is quite same as Luca. Luca is just more way into etiquette but I cannot say if it is good or not.

'Sian. Come back. Right Now!' Ren yells at him.

Sian speeds up a bit and I am coming to the same pace beside him. When is Ren far away from us I say: 'Thank you, Sian. You came when I needed you most.'

'It is no problem, kitten.' he says.

'Kitten?' I ask.

'You are cute as one kitten.' he says.

I blush a bit.

'Now you are more than cute.' he says.

And I am blushing more. I am not thinking about the way he is leading me and so I am confused when I look up at our surroundings. And I see that I do not know where we are.

'Sian.' I say.

He turns around and he smiles.

'Yes, kitten.' he says.

'Uhm - Where are we?' I ask him.

'This is my secret place. You come through this small hole between trees and you are in the centre of the jungle.' he says.

I did as he said and I saw around me so many plants. On the branches of the trees were sitting the birds and were singing.

I look around in awesomeness. This is so beautiful place to be at.

'It is beautiful, Sian. Thank you for showing me this place.' I say.

'You are more.' he says.

'What I am more?' I ask confused.

He catches my hand. And he kisses the palm of it. He pulls me closer to him and his arm places on my waist.

'Sian.' I say.

'Your voice is so sweet.' he says.

'Sian.' I say again. I do not know if he is saying the truth. I do not know what to say.

'You are more beautiful than this place, Leonora.' he says.

'I am not...' I say and after I say that he places his lips on mine. His arms move from waist to my mid-back. 

This is my first kiss.

But will it be last?
