Saving Her Part 1
"I have excellent hearing," she lied to him, "so if I leave here and hear you tell the prince that you're innocent or some sh*t like that, I'll tighten the ropes until your bones break. Got it?"
He swallowed hard and nodded vigorously. Lara's uncle and prince Yashiro watched as Astoria left them, walking back into the house. They were both left stunned and speechless that she was capable of doing such a thing for a princess or even speaking the way she did.
She found Lara in the kitchen, trying to remove the little bit of flesh that was on the chicken bone in her hand. She stood by the wall and leaned on it, her arms crossed and a motherly smile on her face. The little fox had not noticed that she was standing there, watching her. That was until she looked up and saw the princess' sweet smile. Lara placed the bone down and blushed profusely.
