Chapter 6

Today is the day before the full moon. My mom is worried about the undoing of the spell. Well, we've been trying it for many full moons but it's failure after failure. Though my mother's the first witch ever created by nature, she could do it.

The witches of Amini coven were spotted on the island of my father's ally. My father and the king of Zykanthos island have got quite a friendship. My father warned them about their doings in our island and asked them to arrest them immediately and to imprison them in the dungeon.

Well, my father was handling all the legal issues of the states. I wanted to meet henry before the full moon. I went out looking for him and ended up on the farm, where he was watering the plants.

I could hear the water splashing. The green water pipe in his hands, going right and left to water the plants. He was wearing his usual white t-shirt and black jean trouser. And his brown leather shoes, long enough to cover his ankles. His dark black hair, like always, was messed and scattered on his forehead. It seemed like everything's normal again.

But the thing is, it wasn't. And there, reality kicked in.

"Hey", he said. "Why is yer standin' there?"

"Just watching you water and thinking about how much I love you."

I could see his eyes crinkle, he looked down and gave me a beaming smile.

"That's quite flattering"

"Well, it is. You're being loved by a princess."

"huh"; he noded. And bowed saying, "Your royal highness."

And we both laughed at it till we remembered about our current situation.

And there was a silence for a minute. He was looking into my eyes as if he wanted to break the world apart to win me.

He went to sit under the tree. I followed him.

"You ready for tomorrow night?"; I said and sat beside him, "you never told me how it feels like to turn into a werewolf?"

"Isn't very pleasant", he gave me a smile, "It's like breakin' every bone in yer body."

"I'm sorry this happened to you, It's all because of me, the witches hate me and they are using you to get rid of me and my kind."

"No, It isn't yer fault"; he said and caressed his fingers through my hair.

"I hope mom finds a way of undoing the spell, so you will be free then"

"yeah, so nothing could break us apart."

"Yeah!", I said and he gave me a big hug.

"I think you should go grace, It'll be dark anytime soon"; he said and stood up.

"You're right, I should"

He gave me a hand and with my hands in his, he said; "See ye after the full moon then."

"Yeah, yeah. Okay." I said; "Don't be afraid."

I said and he kissed me on my forehead. Looked into my eyes, his pupils dilated as he said, "I love ye."

"I love you too";

I said and started marching towards the castle, he was right behind me.
