CHAPTER THIRTY NINE

Selene sat on the wooden seat close to the pine tree. There was a mat laid before her. A dish of egg and veal sat in the plate.

There was a cup of mice smelling wine and the knight by her side beamed

The young handsome knight smiled at the princess and took her hand in his, placing a small kiss there. She had been more open to love after her ordeal at Kiro and with her resolve to not be alone, she'd began seeing the young knight she met in town weeks ago. Her heart did not quack when he was with her like it did for the Lord but...... Selene frowned at her own thoughts and scolded herself.

"It is a nice place" Selene said with a smile. She was relaxed, at peace and comfortable with a nice man, she reminded herself quickly.

"It is my haven. I found it years ago when I first became a royal warrior" the knight replied with a charming smile.

Selene nodded

"Come" the man said and led her to the mat, sitting there himself and folding his legs before him.
