Chapter 10
Lexi wandered through the village trying to find the boy. It was night and very few people were still out. She new what he looked like but the problem was she didn't know where he lived. Then suddenly, someone bumped into her. It was him! He had the sapphire eyes and the gray fur that she remembered from the carriage.
Ace: Sorry.
Lexi: Oh, it's fine, it was my fault.
Ace: Haven't I seen you before?
At first, Ace didn't recognize her. In his defense, it was dark.
Lexi: I think so. I'm Lexi.
Ace: I'm Ace. Are you new around here?
Lexi: Kind of.
Suddenly, it hit him. It was her. He had a small chance of meeting her, but he did.
Ace: Are you the-
At the start of that sentence Lexi started to worry. In some way she knew exactly what he was going to say.
Lexi: The princess. Please don't tell anyone! Somehow my father will hear and if he does-
Ace: Don't worry, I won't. Why did you sneak out?
Lexi: I-I guess I just wanted to. Only for a little while.
She was scared to tell the truth.
Ace: Of all the times you could sneak out you pick night. The most boring time of the day.
Lexi giggled.
Lexi: It's just the only time I could do it with out getting caught. My fathers a bit overprotective
Ace: A bit?
Lexi: What makes you say that?
Ace: No reason.
