Because you're my Luna
Because you're my Luna
The Royal court of Abramar Kingdom is depressed at the falling health of the queen and the disappearance of the princess.
The queen is not ready to let go of her worries if she didn't see her one and only daughter. She keeps having heart seizures everyday by day.
King Ebenezer is also getting tired of the increasing appeals written by the Ministers and scholars about the uproar of the mysterious Assassin called Pyrrhus Cole.
There's no information to pinpoint about him nor any clue on who he was or what he looks like.
"Your Majesty, is there something you're hiding from me? What did Pyrrhus Cole needs from us for him to take our daughter?" The queen had asked one day.
"I wished I know what he needed, I wished I know how I have offended him.... He doesn't seem like a thief given the fact that he left the stolen treasures then what did he need from us?"
With fast beating heart and increasing headache, the queen stated, "I miss my daughter... I miss Mila"
Back at Dragon Fangs Abode, Walking after him despite his fast strides while Little Phoenix clutched on to Mila's arms instead of enjoying piggy ride with his father, Mila still poised another question, "Aren't you scared I'd run away?"
"That I know you will never want to try!" He replied in his usual cold and stern voice.
Mila tried to adjust the scarf he had given her to cover her nose to avoid dust.
Minutes later they got to the market. Immediately they landed, Pyrrhus held her hand tightly and forced Little Phoenix to climb on his back.
Walking past the animal seller store, Phoenix insisted on his father buying him a dog.
Pyrrhus had to frown and left the area but the little bun is still hellbender on getting a dog.
"Little Phoenix, you can't get a pet, Father don't like Pets" she pacified.
"No father loves pet but he told me that he loved it because mother does" he cried.
Mila was speechless, talking about pets remembered him of Little Phoenix's real mother?
She looked down as she felt his hard and tempting gaze on her. He scoffed and moved away while she followed him and Little Phoenix Continued his rampage.
Mila followed suit as he walked towards another part of the market where fruits were sold and then he stopped.
Almost making her collide with him, he turned and dropped a pouch of coins in her hand "Here take this, Get all that's we needed
Mila can't believe her ears and eyes... "Wait you're trusting me with this kind of stuff?" She asked obviously shocked.
"I don't need trust issues on that because I know you won't dare to run away"
With a scoff, she whispered obviously not expecting him to hear what she said.... "As if you have some kind of magic to know if I left or not"
"Little Phoenix will be with you I have other matters to attend to" He called from her behind.
That's when Mila understoid that, there's no way she could possibly think of running way, not even with the way he caught her trying to kill him.
Still in her abyss of disarray, Little Phoenix snapped her out of her thoughts, "Mother, let's buy apples"
"Oh yes Phoenix, we'll buy lots of apples" she replied as she turned to look out for Pyrrhus, but he was already gone.
She grabbed Phoenix's little hand holding him very tight so he won't run away and Continued with shopping.
Mila and Little Phoenix giggled excitedly as they both shop several groceries and suppiments.
Mila had never experience this kind of Adventure before, being a Princess, everywhere she goes is always guarded and can't even move freely. Any free opportunity she had to go to the market without notice is either with Judy or Gabe.
She had yanked away the nose cover she had on before as she converse with a particular market woman who seems very stubborn.
"How much?" She asked the Cucumber seller
Arranging her wares and putting in a buyer friendly face, the woman replied, "you can take it for twenty coins my lady"
Mila smiled, even though she gets everything for free back at Abramar Kingdom, she clearly knows how much such Cucumbers worth.
With a smile she replied, "Madam, I can't buy these for twenty, can you sell it for fifteen?"
Still trying to bargain the price, a masked man touched her body sensitively. Mila Became surprised, who dares touched her in such a way?
She looked back but the assailant had left with a smirk on this face. She at first thought it was normal and and went on bargaining with the trader then he passed again touching her sensitively again.
This time Mila can't contain her anger anymore then she followed the man as she saw him leave.
She left Little Phoenix in care of the cucumber seller, "Madam I'll be back soon, please look out for my son?" She asked.
Little Phoenix held her hand when she was about to leave..... "Mother, where are you going to? Why can't Little Phoenix come with you?"
She crouched and kissed his forehead quickly, "baby, Mother is going to attend to something, Little Phoenix should be obedient and stay with this madam" with that, she went after the man.
As she followed the maskee black haired man who touched her, the man noticed that she was following him tuner into a corner into a more open area a little bit far from the main market place.
"Hey! Hey!!" She yelled and he turned around.
He smirked as he turned around, "Oh, Pretty one, you followed me?"
With a daring voice, she replied; "Yes! You absolutely had no right to touch me like that" as she said that, two other men joined him.
"You shouldn't have followed me pretty one, but since you did, I don't see how we can't have fun?" The man replied with flirting voice and the others laughed.
Mila wasn't that confident of herself but she remembered that she had Pyrrhus Cole, she gained more confidence, "You wouldn't even dare touch me!! My husband would kill all of you!"
With a smirk, they asked, "Husband? Who is your husband?"
She was about to reply, a dagger flew across, making all of them gasp and with heavy footsteps and cool ambience, Pyrrhus Cole walked up to them with stern face.
"Who dares touch my wife?", He asked with his usual cool and serene voice.
They all bowed towards him, they were very scared, who in Dragon Fangs Abode doesn't know who Pyrrhus Cole is?
"Your Highness!", They bowed.
Mila was once again surprised to why they call him highness. Still not batting an eye, he continued... "I ask which one of you dares to mess with my wife?"
"We apologise your highness" the all bowed.
With a smirk, he gave Mila the other dagger he was holding then faced them again, "Seems you're all offenders, I'll let my wife decide the verdict!"
Mila gulped hard, decide the verdict? She had never even killed a cockroach talk less of a man who touched her.
"What are you saying Pyrrhus?" She asked in whispers with panic.
"Kill these offenders Mila!"
She shook as the dagger dangle in her hands, "How will I kill them? Why will I?"
He faced her with sharp face blazing with confidence and anger.....
"Because you're my wife!"
