Chapter 9: Bliss

"Brandon," sighed Stella, relieved.

"Princess, is there something wrong?" asked Brandon, "You don't look so good."

"No, I'm alright." Stella lied. Suddenly, her eyes grew widen and surprised after seeing the Pegasus beside Brandon.

"It's beautiful," whispered Stella. "She just looks like, sis…" The Pegasus then comes closer to Stella, while Stella was dazing at the Pegasus and touches its silky hair.

"Where did you get it?" asked Stella, surprised.

"I found it on the woods nearby." Replied Brandon, "It seems like the owner left her there."

"Poor thing." Stella continues looking at its beautiful Sapphire eyes. "Hey eyes looks just like my sister, isn't it right Brandon?"

"Ya princess, I was shocked too when the first time I saw her. So, I think we have an excuse to say that we hunted a beautiful Pegasus."

"Ya." Replied Stella. "It's getting late, I think we should go back now."

"Sure Princess." They walked out from the palace and Stella got up into the horse carriage, while Brandon put another leash on the Pegasus. He got up onto the Pegasus, and the Pegasus walks and pulls the carriage.

"Where could Stella be?" Said the worried Radius, "I mean even if I promised her to do whatever she wants before her wedding, that doesn't mean that she can go hunting alone!"

"Your majesty, don't worry. She's attended with a squire, I think the squire know what he's doing." Said Chimera, Radius walked towards her angrily and slapped her.

"You think? She's only attended with a lowly squire! What if she's in danger and the squire is unable to protect her? How do you take care of the princess!"

"Sir, don't blame her." Spoke up Sky, "I have already order my troops to look for her, and I think they'll find her." Radius then walks to his throne, sitting while waiting for Stella to be back.

"The Princess is back!" called the guard outside; Radius stood up and saw his daughter walking in. He got up in joy and rushed to Stella.

"Stella, my daughter!" Cried Radius whom is now hugging his daughter. "I was worried about you! Where in the world have you been?"

"Father, I was just going for hunting." Replied Stella, "Look what I brought!" Radius eyes grew widen when he saw the Pegasus that is in front of him.

"Wow, that is one beautiful Pegasus that you captured!" praised Radius.

"I was thinking of keeping Bliss so that we could go hunting together in the future, can I father?" asked Stella, Radius just sighed and nodded.

"Thank you father, I'll go back to my room and rest now." Said Stella and she walks off. Chimera got up from the floor and follow Stella back to her room.

"You." Called Sky and pointed at Brandon. "You're that squire that I met on the royal garden."

"Yes your majesty." He greeted Sky with a bow. "Is there anything that I can serve you?"

"I just want to thank you for protecting my fiancée. You may go and bring that Pegasus away now." Brandon nodded and walks out from the castle, bringing the Pegasus as well.

"That boy…" Radius said. "Where do I see him before?"

"He's a kitchen boy and works for your family once, but he left to pursue his education in knight's school." Said Sky, "He may be a lowly commoner, but from his eyes I can see that he is one good swordman."

"You seems to know a lot about this guy, Sky." Said Radius.

"Well, he told me about it." He replied, "Sir, I think I'll go check up on Princess Stella. She's probably tired after hunting, but I have a gift for her."

"Well sure." Agreed the King, "Both of you can also get to know each other better, go on."

"Thank you sir." Sky then leaves the grand hall to look for his Fiancée.

Chimera is combing Stella's hair after she had helped Stella cleaning her and dressing her up.

"Chimera, I'm sorry that my father punished you." Said Stella, "I'm also sorry for yelling at you this afternoon."

"It's alright princess." Said Chimera, "I know you do not have the intention to yell at me, you just want to go outside that all. I shouldn't have stopped you from going outside."

Suddenly, they heard someone knocking the door. Chimera put the comb onto the table and ran to the living room and opened the door.

"Your Majesty." Greeted Chimera.

"I am looking for Princess Stella, is she still awake?" asked Sky.

Here's another chapter for Romeo and Juliet. What do you think Sky's intention is to look for Stella?

Review please?
