CHAPTER 1: Kidnapped

"Howl! Howl get up, its morning already!" said person stirred, and pulled the person calling him down and pinned them to the bed, "Ah!" they gasped, before giggling.

"Sophie, let me sleep just a little longer" he whispered to the person lying under him, before lying his head on her chest, Sophie just smile.

"But Howl, your breakfast is on the table, and it's getting cold!" She heard him sigh, before standing and he started to get undress, she blushed, before looking away.

"Sophie" he said, turning her head to look at him, "We've been married for a month now, you've seen it all" he said, she blushed, and tried looking away again, he only chuckled before pulling her face up to his and kissing her on the lips.

She pushed him away before getting up, she smiled at him, he chuckled standing up and pulling her into a hug, "How are you feeling this morning?" he asked her, she smiled wider.

"Fine, You?" he nodded,

"I'm ok, but I know something to make me feel great" he said, wiggling his eye brows suggestively, she blushed and hit him on the arm, he chuckled pushing her back down on the bed, she smiled and allowed him to capture her lips once more.

"Markl are you ready to go?" Sophie shouted up the stairs, the young brown haired boy came running down the stairs.

"Yep!" he shouted, she smiled, and then walked over to her husband who was seated at the table, reading the newspaper.

"Ok Howl, we're off to the markets, we'll be back shortly" she said, leaning down and kissing him on the lips.

"Ok, be careful" he said, she smiled and nodded, and then her and Markl headed outside.

"The market always smells fresh" Sophie said, smiling Markl only shrugged,

"I guess, maybe it's because of the ocean?" he said out loud

"Maybe" Sophie replied, before continuing down the road, the first stand hey stopped at was a fruit stand, "Hmm, which fruit do you want Markl?" she asked, he only shrugged, so she just got some apple's and put them in the basket that Markl had insisted on carrying, and gave the money to the man.

They continued down the road and stopped at the fish stand, they got their fish and decided to head home, they took a short cut down one of the little alley ways, when they were stopped by a group of shoulder's, "Hello there" one of them said, "We have orders to take you, Miss Sophie" he said, she stared at him, taking a step back, only to back into someone.

"Huh?" she gasped, when she turned around, the blonde prince she had met before, when she gave Howl back his heart was standing right in front of her. He bowed.

"Nice to see you again, Miss Sophie" he said, Markl hid behind Sophie, she held a hand up to her chest and used the other to block him from Markl. The prince noticed the ring on her finger.

"So you married Howl huh?" he asked, she nodded, he scowled, before nodding at the guards behind her and Markl, they stepped forward and grabbed Markl, two held him back while the others held onto Sophie.

"Sophie!" Markl shouted and the guards holding him hit him the back of the neck,

"Shut up!" one shouted, he fell to the floor unconscious, before they followed the prince and the other guards.
