DESTINY GIRL

61. Fretted

While Kendrick himself is still trying to dampen his desire. He was swept away by his passion earlier. His eyes closed, remembering what he had done.

" No... no... This is dangerous ! I have to marry her "murm Kendrick.

Kendrick went into the bathroom and doused his fist. He even dipped his head for a while in the bathtub. Hoping for those voluptuous shadows to disappear from his head.

Rey was daydreaming more in the room. He also felt a sense of passion mixed with shame remembering that. Eyes closed.

" Tock-tok-tok........ Princess, it's lunch time "

Rey opened the door immediately.

" Please bring my lunch to the room... "

" Okay, Princess "

Soon the servants prepared lunch in Rey's room.

A waiter met Kendrick in his study.

" Sorry Your Majesty, you want to have lunch together in the hall or where ? "

" Ehm........ I don't know Servo. My mind is not calm. If I had eaten with the Elders they would have asked a lot. Where do you think ? "

" What if His Majesty eats in the back garden that has its rivers. I think the sound of river water will calm your mind "

" All right. Bring me lunch soon, yes "

" Good Your Majesty "

Kendrick was walking in the garden behind the palace. He stepped towards the small river and sat on one of the river stones with a smile. Playing with the river currents makes the fish confused.

" What's wrong with My Lord, not usually playing water ..... ? "

" ah..... Water Fairy .... I just want to rest here for a while "

The water fairy smiled. He sat on the river rock.

" Water fairy, can you tell me what's going on out there ? "

" May be My Lord. But I apologize for not knowing everything. I could only tell something from the water and the fish "

" Is there anything important you know lately ? "

" I don't know if it's important or not. Some of the women bathing in the river talked about the chaotic capital of the kingdom of Higresia. They say the new ruler who is now very cruel and black . He killed many newborns so many pregnant mothers who fled to other villages before his birth "

" Did they not name the new ruler ? "

" No Your Majesty, they did not dare because he said it would soon come some sort of black fog that would strike suddenly if they did not intentionally or dare to mention the name of the new ruler. They think he's a black witch "

Kendrick frowned. Think black magic what sacrifices a red baby ? The water fairy was silent when she saw Lord Kendrick pensive.

A couple of waiters came to bring Kendrick lunch. They set it in a gazebo near the river. Servo's approaching Kendrick.

" Lunch is ready, Your Majesty "

" Thank you Servo. Return later. I'll be here for some time. Water fairy, can you accompany me to eat ? "

" Good Your Majesty "

During the meal they talked more about the happenings in the city or other things in the nearby villages. Looks like a talking water fairy while occasionally eating water moss in her small pouch. Kendrick also forgot the thing that had troubled his mind earlier.
