Mixed Emotions…

The soldiers set up tents to stay.

The aura around some of them seemed to be a little different, which made Alan curious.

Sarah pointed at these tents "Isabelle can use that one, Hannah's domes can use the one on the right"

She pointed at two tents which looked a bit bigger than the others "That one is for me and…"

She giggled cunningly glancing at Alan and spoke "this one is for Hannah and… Alan"

"What?... 'Did I hear it right" Alan turned to find Hannah who stood behind him.

Her cheeks were spanked red, she looked at her sister with a satisfied smile.

"Hannah" Alan was not sure about sharing a tent with Hannah. He is not complaining though, who would miss a chance to share a tent with Hannah…

Alan's thoughts were clouded as soon as he saw Hannah holding Alan's hand pressing her boobs against his shoulder, her eyes gleaming brightly as her tail wagged in a periodic motion like a pendulum.

"Alan, you don't want to …" Hannah looked at Alan with lustful eyes.

Alan's mind froze, and his brain lost the ability to form sentences "….i…nott.. ii .wwantt"

"No…." a roar was heard throughout the woods.

Isabelle screamed at the top of her lungs; it was a miracle her insides didn't fall out.

Alan didn't know how to react to this situation and kept staring at Isabelle.

Sarah spoke in a neutral tone "why not?" she moved closer to Isabelle and spoke with a sly smile on her face "perhaps, you wanted to sleep with Alan". she didn't mean in a perverted way I swear, what she meant was sharing the bed with Alan, she didn't want to use her brain to form proper meaningful sentences.

Isabelle blushed; she was uncertain how to answer Sarah's question.

Sarah shrugged and said with a straight face "They are a couple, it's normal for them to sleep together (again, not in a perverted way). Why are you refusing?"

" Oh, is it because you like Alan too" she spoke as her sly smile grew wider.

"… no I..." Isabelle wanted to say something but she just couldn't, she wanted to deny Sarah's accusation so bad but… she felt deep in her heart, that she would regret denying Sarah's questions.

A silence fell between them…

Alan wanted to help her out, but she has to discover her true feelings. All he could do was support her.

Hannah broke the awkward silence, "Isabelle why don't we three share the tent" she grabbed Isabelle's hands with a cute face.

"ok…" she answered immediately, she glanced at Alan "hump, I am sharing the tent only because Hannah requested" she pouted.

'ohhh… cute' Alan thought inwardly. It was good that she was starting to reveal her true self.

Sarah went to check the cave where the demons were residing to find any possible clues to the demon's plans.

But sadly, there wasn't anything other than some animal bones.

Alan had prepared the steak for everyone with the steaks he had left in his storage.

As usual, Isabelle started hogging the food not caring about how others reacted to her.

It was something she loved, so she didn't mind the weird gazes of the soldiers.

Hannah and Sarah took a bite of the steak, what else could their reaction be other than…

'Here it comes' Alan thought as he flashed a smile, he never doubted his cooking skills.

"Yummy…" they exclaimed hard.

Sarah spoke with a shocked face "Alan it's so delicious" she took another bite as Hannah continued

"where did you find such good recipes?"

"I made them" Alan spoke with a straight face.

Of course, he was not the one who made the recipe, it was a recipe from a famous chef in his previous life named Gorden.

But in this world, he would gladly take the credit for the hard work, the chef Gordon who made the recipe was supposed to get.

He did feel a bit guilty when he first used Gorden's recipe, then he remembered what the chef always used to say when he was questioned about how he felt when others tried to copy his recipe.

This was his reaction…

"I cook to make people happy through my food. So, I don't mind if others copy my recipe, either way I am achieving my goal. 'To make people happy'"

These were the lines spoken by the famous chef, that's the reason Alan doesn't feel guilty taking credit for the food. In a way, he was achieving his goal too. To impress women with his food.

...

Hannah was surprised to know how good Alan's food was.

She looked at Alan with a big smile and said in a cheerful tone "Alan I am very happy right now" she paused for a second and continued "I will get to taste your food all my life".

Thud

Isabelle who was busy eating her steak dropped it on the plate as soon as she heard what Hannah just said.

'What! All her life' Isabelle would make Alan's restaurant her home if he would open one. That's how much she loved his food.

She felt jealous of Hannah.

Nobody minded Isabelle and continued with their food.

Five minutes passed

Sarah spoke to Alan with a serious face "Alan you have come with us to meet our father"

"Huh..." Alan was seriously confused.

"You have to meet the king; you have to do this for 'Hannah'" she asserted when she said Hannah's name.

"…hmm, ok" Alan didn't want to think much about it, after he heard it was for Hannah, he agreed immediately.

Hannah looked at Alan and spoke with a mixed reaction on her face. a reaction that expressed both shock and love.

"Didn't you tell him anything?" Sarah said as soon as she noticed Hannah's shocked reaction. She could easily understand her sister from her expression. After all, they are siblings and most importantly sisters.

Hannah shook her head.

It's not that she wanted to hide the truth from Alan, she just couldn't find time to tell Alan about her golden eye. Isabelle would always keep staring at Hannah whenever Hannah tried to talk to Alan.

"u better tell him soon" Sarah was serious.

Hannah nodded as she peeked at Alan to see his reaction.

He was still confused and curious. He just flashed a loving smile as he felt Hannah's gaze.

Hannah turned her head immediately blushing bright red.

Alan looked at Isabelle "Isabelle I am going to the werecat kingdom with Hannah, what are you going to do?" he just wanted to know her plans, since their mission was over.

"of course, I am going with you" she spoke seriously, there was multiple reasons for her answer. One was that she could spend more time with Alan, she still doesn't realize why she wants to spend time with him. Dense, really dense. I don't think she is going to realize any time soon.

Second, she was just curious why Sarah would invite Alan to her kingdom even though it may cause problems if the civilians knew about Alan's arrival.

Third, she wanted to know why Sarah asked him to visit for Hannah's sake. Hannah could just go with Alan to his territory. She will be safe being protected by all the strongest people.[Protect from humans]

Isabelle was talking about Alan, William and the Zeus army which was said to be the strongest.

And the fourth, she wanted to enjoy more steak and ask Alan for a bottle of champagne.

This may sound stupid, but she was most serious about her last reason than the others.

"Don't you have work as a duchess?" Alan asked with a curious face.

"Julian will take care of it" Isabelle continued to eat her steak after answering Alan.

'whatever' Alan rolled his eyes.

...…..

It was pitch dark outside.

Alan didn't sleep in the tent, he waited until everyone fell asleep and searched for the highest peak on the mountain.

He reached the peak of a mountain. Its peak was flat as Earth. Nothing was to be found except a huge apricot tree which bloomed with pink flowers at the edge of the peak.

With a view of the full moon, it was truly marvellous scenery to watch.

It was pretty as a picture.

Alan stood beneath the tree; flowers withered as the wind blew caressing its branches.

Alan set up a couch, and a table with a glass filled with champagne.

He sat at one end of the couch comfortably, he took the glass of champagne and took a sip "…ahh, Hannah would love this just like Vic-"

He was interrupted by Hannah "what is it, Alan?"

Hannah walked towards the couch and took a seat beside Alan comfortably.

"How did you find me?"

"Umm… how could I forget how you smell" she replied with a lustful smile.

Gulp

Alan gulped hard; he felt his brother twitching every time she looked at him with those eyes.

'Cat women have good senses' Alan thought to himself.

"isn't this beautiful?" she spoke as his eyes shined brightly looking at the scenery.

"Yes, it is" Alan gave Hannah a glass of champagne and said as he flashed a loving smile "but, you are more beautiful".

She punched Alan lovingly "stop it".

Her face was flushed red as soon as she took a sip of the champagne.

She let out a short breath and didn't react to the taste of the champagne.

"Was it not good?" Alan asked.

"No, it was the best drink I ever had, anything you make is always the best" she took another sip and continued "I can't wait to taste all your recipes"

After they both cleaned their glasses dry.

Alan asked with a curious face "do you have anything to say to me?"

Alan was feeling troubled since he heard Sarah's and Hannah's conversation.

He can't calm his nerves until he knows the truth.

Hannah moved closer to Alan and held his hand "The thing is… I came to know from my sister that my eyes are special and…"

Hannah explained everything to Alan and the reason she allied with her sister.

At first, Alan was very happy that Hannah was ready to sacrifice everything for him, but soon his face became neutral when Hannah told him about her golden eyes.

Now Alan had mixed emotions….

Hannah who felt a sudden change in Alan's mood asked in a worried tone "Alan why are you not saying anything?"

Alan remained silent, he didn't want to judge Hannah and hurt her. But he felt he would be doubting everything if he didn't speak his mind.

"Hannah, do you really love me?" he paused for a sec "or are you feeling this way because of your body?"

"…" Hannah remained silent.

"Let me be honest… I fell in love with you at your very sight. My heart hasn't beaten so fast for anything…" Alan continues:

"I love you Hannah but…" he gripped her hands tighter "I want to know your true feelings"

Alan wanted to trust Hannah, he loved her. It's not that he doesn't love Victoria and Ashley, he didn't feel this way when he saw them first. His feelings for them blossomed into love.

But it was different when it came to Hannah.

He would be betraying himself if he hadn't asked Hannah these questions. He knew he was a bit harsh but he didn't want to feel the pain of being betrayed again.

"Do you think I would have let you live after you attacked my dome if I didn't love you"

"Do you think I was afraid of killing a duke's son"

"Or did you think I would show my face to a man without a reason"

She was a princess; she never showed her face to any man except her father and her brothers. She didn't want men staring at her with their goggling eyes. That's the reason she always kept her face covered.

Tears flooded out of her eyes and she screamed "it's because I love you idiot"

Sob Sob

"I didn't know your scent when I met you… sob…Now should I believe it was all because of my body"

Yes, what Hannah said was true, she didn't know Alan's scent when she first met him. His body released the scent only after he sweated.

'Shit! I am so stupid for making her cry. She didn't know about her body until Sarah revealed it to her today'

Hug!

"Hannah I am sorry for doubting you, it's just that I wanted to hear it from you"

Hannah hugged Alan tighter "No it's not your fault… sniff… I should have told you earlier. Its natural for you to doubt my feelings."

She pulled back and held Alan's face with her both hands and spoke in a sweet tone "I love you, Alan… I love you… I love you"

"I love you too Hannah, you look so beautiful"

What Alan said just now was true. when Alan looked at Hannah as the pink blowers trailed down, her skin refracted the moonlight. It was truly a breathtaking scene.

He glided his fingers behind her neck, he caressed her soft lips. Hannah caressed Alan's cheeks with her eyes full of love.

Their breathing started to get heavy, and both their face beat red. Alan couldn't wait anymore.

She closed her eyes as Alan leaned in for a kiss.

Ummmm

Their lips glided against each other; their bodies started heating up.

Alan moved his hands towards her head and caressed her ears.

Ummmm

Her body shivered visibly, she held Alan's head not wanting to let it go.

Alan slowly inserted his tongue which startled Hannah.

But she was rather a quick learner, she counterattacked with her moist tongue.

'Oh, this feels so good' Alan thought as he kept kissing.

After half an hour….

They finally ended their kiss.

Alan rested his legs on the couch comfortably, he wanted to sleep watching the moonlight with…

Alan raised he arms inviting Hannah.

She rested her head on Alan's chest as Alan hugged her.

Alan remembered he had to confess something to Hannah.

"Ummm... Hannah, I have two fiancées" he blurted out.

.....

Isabelle "snored….."

[ lol, they left Isabelle to sleep alone]
