Year 752 - 15 years later…

POV Prince Vegeta

"Prince, you just got a personal message from king Merlot" A big bald man walked in the training area. "That name sounds vaguely familiar, did we wrecked that planet ones?" The prince laughed and was thinking hard if what he said was correct. "Ehmm no, king Merlot was a good friend of your father, of the planet Uva" The young prince was thinking back. But it didn't ring a bell. "We sometimes help out with protecting the kingdom. Who will ever attack with Saiyans there right?!" Nappa explained.

And then it hit him, that time on that boring planet where he met that white haired half-blood. He had to admit that he started to get curious what happened. There was something about her, her eyes were golden. Big and golden. And she was fast, not strong but feisty.

"Ok let's go, wake up Raditz". And with that order Nappa walked away. Vegeta walked to the showers. With an open mind he wants to go to Uva. What had happened to that half-blood? Or did they do something to her. Was he really taking this boring job just to check something out?

After filling in de other men they wanted to go to their pods but they received another message, stating that they have another assignment in six days' time. They must take also some gear and supply`s with them. Then the bigger ship it was.

The planet Uva was not far, the trip was only twenty hours. Nappa reminisced about beautiful ladies and delicious food on Uva. His brother once got a lady there, the big bold guy was laughing. "Ehmm Nappa, Isn't that girl Vegeta talked about your niece?" Raditz asked. Everybody went quite. "Nah my brother died in like years back in battle".

After a smooth trip the planet was in sight. It was a green and warm planet. They landed on a platform and a tall distinguished gentleman was waiting for them. He did not say much. He led the warriors to the throne room. Vegeta went up front, followed by his men. They walked in a big light room with two chairs in back center. On the right was the big one, there was king Merlot. On the left a smaller with the princess, her name was Gamay. And behind her was standing a lady. About 1,55 m tall, standing straight, white hair in a braid, big golden eyes, dark blue dress with splits on both sides, a white tail curled around her leg and she had a small smile who was directed straight on the prince. It was her!

POV Lady Vino

There he was, the boy from so long before. Will he remember her at all? She could only smile at him. She was not allowed to speak anyway. Then she looked through the throne room. A scan she did every minute. She wasn't expecting an attack now. Who would be foolish enough to attack now? Only if you had a death wish! And then her eyes went back to the prince and his men.

The king stood up. "Thank you for coming my good friend's son. As you've heard, my daughter is getting married in four days. I need extra protection. And who better than Saiyans". The two men behind the prince made a little bow. The prince stood straight up, with his tail curled around his waist and his arms crossed. He looked around the room. "And what is it what you want us to do King Merlot?" He asked.

A heavy formal voice filled the room "Please Prince, you will walk with me and Lady Vino to discuss the plans. Your men may wait in the courtyard." It was coming from the head of security and general Malbec. A stately man, tall with broad shoulders. White shiny hair and dark red eyes. At twenty-five, the youngest general ever.

Malbec offered his hand when I walked down the stairs. As a lady I had to accept. When I took his hand I looked at the prince. He didn't react at all; maybe he didn't even remember that I also have Saiyan blood. The tree of us together with the king and a lieutenant we went in a private room. We were standing around a round table with a map of de castle and it forest around it. I was standing straight next to the prince. I smelt a comforting rich masculine aroma, I felt his body heat. Vino, wake up! Keep your head by your job please. I wanted to fight him and that he will say "come with me of this dull planet". I have to get my mind straight.

The king explant that the princess will marry a noble man in four days. They will arrive tomorrow. The castle needs extra protection; this was a job for the two Saiyan warriors. Just walking around and looking for spy`s and troublemakers. "But no killing!" the general demanded.
"And what do you want me to do" said the prince in a confused tone. The king looked at me "please Lady Vino". And everybody`s eyes were on me. I was allowed to speak.
"You will be in charge of inside protection. You will not only be our honorary guest, but also looking for imminent threats to the Princes. You are a prince, so it is normal that you will be on our guest list. When there is event or dinner you will scan the room and be on guard to jump on every danger". I was trying to read the prince his face, but I couldn't read him at all.

POV Prince Vegeta

I heard her speak; her voice was not like a Saiyan at all. She spoke in a kind sweet voice. But she knows her job well; in one sentence I knew my task. It was easy and boring one and I hoped to get some time to see what this Lady is made off. Did she find her Saiyan pride and will to fight or did they break her and she was just a cute look alike wannabe Saiyan.
"Fine, the task will be done" I looked at Vino and her eyes were looking directly at me. I remember this feeling from so many years before, she just has a way to complete silence me whit just looking at me. What nonsense.

"Ok, lady please escort our guests to their rooms and make sure the prince will know were diner is held" the king commanded to Vino. She walked to the door but stopped in front of it. She turned around and with a smile she asked "Follow me, my prince". I started to follow her, did she say my prince? What did she mean by that? Ad why did it make me feel, weird? What preposterous.

We walked over the courtyard, Nappa and Raditz were checking out some local lady`s and they were laughing and joking. They were standing right up when they saw us. "Please walk with us gentlemen" Lady Vino said with a sweet but direct voice. "Gentlemen?" Raditz started to laugh but was silenced by one stern look of the Lady. I could not hold back a grin. My eyes locked with Vino and also had a smile of amusement. I started to like this girl, but she was far from being Saiyan.

We followed the lady to the left wing of the castle. She opened one door and gives a key to Nappa "Diner is at 18:00 in the canteen located in the battlement to the right of the castle." Nappa looked not amused at the young girl. One door ahead she opened a door again and give a key to Radditz "Diner is at 18:00 in the canteen located in the battlement to the right of the castle. "The men disappeared both in their rooms and I Followed Vino. It was our first time alone since our romp fifteen years ago. She was just a white fuzz-ball at that time. But she is elegant now. She opened a door and while she had the key still in the door I pushed it open. I was standing so close to her now I could smell her scent like delicious wildflowers. She looked puzzled at my action to open the door myself. What cost me to stand extreme close. I freed myself from this awkward situation and walked in the room. It was big room with a king size bed and red walls. It was everything fit for a prince like me.

"Diner is at 17:00 in the grand ballroom". She turned around but stopped midway. "If you want to lose some energy before dinner. You are welcome to basement where my training area is. Not much will happen on the first day, everyone knows that the princess is always too well protected." She had an entertaining and confident smile. "Just say it if you want a re-match "I said while smiled back. "See you in 30 minutes, my prince". And with that I had her alone, to see what see can do.

POV Lady Vino

I was walking through the corridors toward the basement, where the training area was. Somehow I felt nervous. Did I really invite the prince, the Saiyan prince, that prince! to come to my training room? I walked down the stairs and let my hand slide over the stair rail. I came to a large heavy door and opened it. I walked through it but left it open behind me. Normally I closed it, but this time I left it open. My prince is also coming this way, I hope. On the right side was a small wall, I had a locker behind it. I quickly changed in a workout outfit. I grab a roll of bandages and make sure I wrap some carefully around my knuckles. Barefoot, I walk back into the room. Started with a light stretch. Then I'm ready to start unleashing my energy on a dummy.

POV Prince Vegeta

The door was open. I wanted to walk through it, but didn't. My feet stood still in the doorway. My eyes fell on a feisty little white haired lady. She wore a tight on top and swing on the bottom dark blue dress She attacked a dummy. With powerful thrusts the dummy was whipped back and forth. She has not been sitting still since our first meeting.

"Do you want a real opponent or do you keep hitting the poor doll" I joked as I walked towards her. She welcomed me with a big smile. She walked up to me but we were starting to walk in a circle. Like two predators willing to fight for dominants. She had a twinkle in her eyes. Her tail swung from side to side. And at the same time we attacked.

She was fast, but not as fast as me. But sometimes I was aiming and was sure to hit but she was blocking me with an energy wall. Other times she blocked me with her arms. As we continued I was sure she was learning some things on the spot. Like how do avoid and hit. She had some surprising fast punches. I was not able to dodge them all. At one moment she even was able to tackle me. Me, the Saiyan prince! As I jumped up she attacked again. I pushed her back. And she crashed with her back against the wall, and was able to pin her down between my arms on either side of her shoulders. I smiled "Got yah".

I felt a hand against my chest; she stood up slightly on her toes and pressed a kiss against my cheek. Like all those years before. Puzzled I looked into her beautiful big eyes. I turned my face to hers. Felt her breath. I put my right hand on the back of her neck. We continued to stare at each other. Just at the moment when I almost lost all my control we heard footsteps. At that moment general Malbec entered.

POV Lady Vino

"What the hell is this" a shocked and angry general was staring at us by the wall. Vegeta let my neck lose and stepped back. "We were just" I started but the general was charging the prince already.
Like two hot heads they attacked each other. "Gentlemen, please", I commended. But no response. "Gentlemen!" I shouted a bit loader. Still no response. They keep hitting, but the general was not much of a match against the prince. It was because he sometimes put up an energy wall that the warrior prince was pushed back. After another yell the men still did not respond. It was time for action. I let my energy flow to my hand and shot a small ki blast right between the hot heads blowing up on of the dummy's.

The two men both looked at me in shock. "General if you could please listen to me it would have saved you a few bruises". I felt angry, why was he so mad at Vegeta. Ok I am a lady and it was expected of me to stay to myself. But I am nineteen years old and can make my own decisions, he was also my prince. What was he thinking of charging an attack like that, idiot!

"Well talk then" the general spit a bit of blood on the ground. Still looking angry. And I was done with this. "No, you had your change for an explanation" and I walked away. "Next time first ask and think, before attacking a strong warrior like the prince". Normally I help him tread his wounds after training, but not now. I was going to hit the shower. Diner was in less than an hour. And I must lead the Princess to dinner.
