A missing princess

*This chapter will be in POV of Leon

Alicia and I were walking on the road towards the horse stables where Midnight was. I can feel that a pair of eyes were looking at us. I was cautious along the way.

We were getting near the stables and I can still feel the presence of the person looking at us.

"Alicia, why not go inside the stable first." I said.

"Okay." Alicia looked at me puzzled.

"Whatever happens don't go out okay." I told her sternly.

"Is there a problem?" She asked.

"Someone is following us since we left the riverbank." I whispered.

"What?" Alicia was startled. I gestured her to keep quiet and she nodded.

"Let's act that we don't know." I said softly. I get my dagger from my belt and handed it to her. "Use this if ever something happens, okay?"

Alicia nodded again. "Be careful."

"I will, do not worry." I said. She was looking at me with worried eyes.

'She's so cute.' I smiled to myself. I pulled her close and kissed her forehead.
