When I woke up I saw that the sun was shining already. Hazel would already be awake, I thought. Oh, oh, gotta hurry it's almost time for breakfast, and if I'm late, my mom will be angry at me, and I won't be allowed outside today. I have to live with this because I'm the prince and she's the queen, so she makes the rules. I know I'm already 21, but she still thinks I can't handle the responsibility.

Lucky for me, I was in time for breakfast, so now I'm enjoying my freedom again, wandering through the woods on my way to Hazel or rather Lyndis. She's half human and half elf. I didn't tell my mother yet because I don't want to scare her with the fact that Lyndis the half elf is in the neighborhood again. Her history isn't as sweet as it looks. In fact, she's been chased away from us when she was 6 years old. Many magical creatures thought she would betray us so they laid a spell on her that she would forget who she was, but they couldn't finish the spell because some human was on its way to the forest and stumbled upon her before the spell was complete, so she still knows how to use magic.

When I got at her house, the gate was open. I guess she opened it because she was somewhere outside the garden caring for the plants that grew through the fence and searching some herbs for tea and potions. I walked past the gate into her garden and hid in between all of her flowers. I wanted to see her face, I wanted to talk to her, I wanted her to know who she was. Nervously hiding in between the plants, using my powers of invisibility, I said, "Hi Hazel."

She looked around, not sure if she heard something or not. She couldn't see me because I was invisible, but I could finally see her face. She had beautiful hazel eyes and chestnut brown hair. A little tip-tilted nose and a few freckles on her cheeks. She had no pointy ears like me, but her ears were more human shaped.
