Chapter 2
Daine looked suprisedly at the tall figure in front of the small bench. He had a surprised yet hurt look on his face. It's almost as if he's hurt that I'm kissing another man, she thought to herself. But no, it can't be. Why would he! Kaddar and Daine just stared at the man, not sure what to say.
"Numair, are you alright. You look really bad," she said as she stood and walked towards him.
"Don't you remember our little conversation yesterday," Numair reminded looking past Daine at the speechless prince. "I thought I told you to not get mixed up with her or you would have the whole Tortallian society on your ass."
"NUMAIR!! What do you think you are doing? You make it seem like he was trying to rape me. We were just kissing, it's not like the world is going to end. I had just as much a part in the act as he did, so don't you go and harass him just because your overprotective of me."
"Do you even realize that this could severely jeopardize out peace agreement?" Numair asked wildly.
"How? It was just one kiss. Your being irrational, you need to calm down."
With that, Numair glared at Kaddar and stormed off down the path, Daine could of swore she saw smoked slowly steaming out of his ears.
"Look, I'm really sorry I caused this," Kaddar apologized as he stood up. "I didn't think he would react so violently."
"It's not your fault. For some reason he is jealous. I don't see why he has Varice there should be not reason for him to act the way he did. Do you really think this will make the peace agreement come to an end?"
"Of course not, on the contrary, it may help it. My uncle always felt that I should wed someone from Tortall, of course he probably meant a princess, but I don't think he will mind. You as close to a princess as you can get."
"Why thank you. Now if you would excuse me, I think I should probably get to bed."
"It would be my pleasure to escort you to your room," he replied as he offered his arm to her. She accepted it graciously and the walked the rest of way there in silence. Once they reached her door, Daine opened it and stepped inside.
"Thank you for such a wonderful evening."
"It was my pleasure, maybe tomorrow I could take you riding. There is this lovely place about a mile from her that I know you will like."
"I would live to," as she said this she leaned forward and gave the prince a soft kiss before stepping back and closing the door. As she turned around she came to see a dark shadow against the bed.
"Numair, what are you doing here?"
AN: the next chapter might take a while. I'm gonna be pretty busy. Sorry
