Jonathan, Raoul and George followed the hooves prints of the kidnapper's horse in silent. None of them had anything to say to each other as Shame crept into their mind. How on earth couldn't three fully-grown men, not to mention knights keep an eye on the Lioness? George let out a silent sigh as he rubbed his temples. Raoul had volunteered to look after Alanna's horse, Moonlight. The three of them were mounted onto their stallions while Raoul had Moonlight's rein in on hand and his horse rein with the other. The sunlight peaked through the shelter of the trees and it beat down on their neck. Suddenly, Jonathan cursed in frustration.

"What?" George asked as he urged his mount to stand beside Jonathan's dark, black stallion.

"The hooves prints…" Jonathan started, "They're gone…"

The King of Tortall and the former King of Thieves glanced at the sturdy knight. A slow smile came across the knight's face.

"I know where he had taken her," Raoul murmured, "I think…there are three caves around here…which means…"

George grinned as Jonathan nodded his head in agreement.

"M-my fiancé?" Alanna murmured as she looked away, and then back into those familiar blue eyes. He crouched down beside her, his eyes pleading for her to remember him. He wrapped his tunic around her then took her hands in his. Alanna stared into his eyes, as she could already feel lost into those mist and sadness in his eyes.

"I…I…can't" she shook her head, "I...I don't know you". His finger cupped her chin and forced her to look at him. Then he reached into his vest and pulled out a silver necklace. He untied her hands so that she could touch the silver necklace. She fingered the pendant as it seemed so familiar to her, and then she pushed it back to him.

"No" she whispered as she turned her head away and refused to look at him, then she remembered where she had seen him and what relationship they had had.

"Y-you!" Alanna said as she pointed an accusing finger at him, "My-my blue eyed angel…"

A slow smile spread across his handsome face as he nodded and he hurled her to her feet.

"That's what you called me before you fell…I've been trying to find you…and now you're finally mine again" he whispered in her ears as she gently pushed him away from her. Whatever feelings she had felt for him when she was a child, was gone, there was only one person in her heart. She pulled his tunic closer around her as he gazed at her.

"I was sent to live with my uncle after your accident and it was a month later your brother Thom sent me a letter saying that they have found you. My father wouldn't allow me to live the place and when I finally escaped I heard that you went to the convent, yet you were not there…" his voice trailed off was they heard approaching footsteps. Just at that moment did Alanna realised that they were in a cave. She cursed herself for not realising earlier. Alanna strained her ears to listen and to her great relief she heard a neigh and George's voice. Immediately Nicholas drew his sword.

"My Lady do not fear…. I will protect you from this creature as I swear that I will not leave you again….", he pulled her close to him.

"C-creature?" Alanna said as she bit her lips hard to keep from laughing.

She heard George's footstep coming closer and closer.

"Alanna, my lady no matter what… I will never let you go", Nicholas said as he pulled Alanna closer. They were so close, that Alanna could feel the warmth of his muscular his body. Nicholas forced Alanna into a rough kiss, while he pinned her against the wall.

Alanna struggled within his gasps and tried to push him away.

George's footsteps were getting louder and louder, which meant that he was coming closer and closer.

Nicholas looked up, as he held Alanna in his embrace and suddenly realised the sharp tool that was pointed to his neck He turned his head to find a very angry man with fury hazel eyes glaring down at him.

"If you move… I swear I'll slice you into pieces", George whispered angrily as Alanna slipped from Nicholas's gasp.

"George" Alanna murmured as she ran and stood beside him.

George quickly embraced her as tightly and checked her for any injuries. Her wrist was swollen and so were her lips, but he could detect nothing more. There was a glint of jealous in Nicholas's eyes as he eyed George's every movement.

"Are you alright my love?" George asked her as Alanna nodded. With one quick movement Nicholas brought his elbow up into George's ribs and pointed his long sword at George's chest. It caught the King of Thieves unexpectedly. George dropped the sword as Alanna picked up George's sword and pointed it at Nicholas's neck while Nicholas's sword was at George's chest.

"W-why my beloved…?" Nicholas whispered.
