Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 10 Just Like Anyone Else
The rest of the day passed smoothly, and the two friends listened to an account of the island’s history directly from King Greyson, most of which Chad was not oblivious to, and Sky was finding difficulty understanding because of his dense nature. Jade involuntarily stared towards Chad’s way, but inhibited herself from further stares when Chad became aware.It didn’t occur to her why Chad’s eyes were a little downcast, though he appeared normal this morning when he arrived at the meeting hall. Jade decided it wasn’t her concern, and she had more worries on her mind to fret about. Greyson had cleared those doubts in her mind and, like he said, it was up to her to decide about her marriage and her discomfort about going on the mission.Other than her, Greyson had nobody he could trust and was capable enough to go on the mission. Because Xima’s eyes and ears were all over the island, he had no choice but to entrust such a severe task to his old friend, and he believed in her. Greyson also
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 11 Message From A Great Evil
Two days laterJade looked back at the Guard's office as it gradually vanished from sight. She and Chad were in a horse carriage, where Sky, sitting outside on the horse, manoeuvred through the thick woods. The city, also named Tribute, was in the island's heart.Their first destination was Faepool, a village closest to the city. It would take about five days for them to reach Faepool, and in between points of travel, they had to recuperate as much as they could.Before this, Jade had thought of her task as just exterminating evil. But it was her first time encountering these demons which the Shaman had defined as 'hideous creatures of a foreign race, with different colours'. It brought up her memory of the vision she had seen just before she almost drowned in the bath chamber. The Shaman had, like Greyson, kept everything for the last before coming clean to her.A part of her felt betrayed. But she understood they had their reasons for their actions. She had considered Greyson her co
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 12 A Dark Inn
The carriage stopped at an inn located just before the border of Tribute and Faepool, where they stayed for the night, resuming their road trip the next day.It was the first time Jade had stayed at such places even though she had travelled before, but seeing that Chad and Sky had experienced such stays before, she allowed them to make the choice of their rooms.Chad took the lead and selected two spacious rooms on the top floor of the inn. Over the last two days, he took over driving the carriage to allow for some private time between his sworn brother and Jade. He hardened his feelings, recalling the overheard conversation that other day between Jade and the king.It baffled him how she was engaged to someone and had no intention of breaking the arrangement.Her concern that she might not keep herself pure for him, did it mean she had someone on her mind? Was that someone, him or Sky? Although he had that encounter in the bath chamber with her, Jade did also have a heart-to-heart wi
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 13 Not A Dream
Suddenly, Levi Stanson realised that someone had placed an icy blade to his throat and let out a cold scream. The man hissed, realising the other person present in the room, maddened at how Chad caught him off guard.“Who the hell are you?”Without taking his sword off the man’s throat, Chad smiled handsomely and answered, “I am the Hero of the Night.”Levi Stanson shouted again, but this holler was unique from the one earlier. At his beck and call, Chad could hear footsteps coming from downstairs. A strong tap on Stanson’s shoulder immobilised him. Next, Chad got ready to defend himself from the oncoming party.Chad pulled the covers over Jade to shield her nakedness from further attention. He took on a crouching stance and unsheathed his great sword, unleashing whirlwinds with his melee power. The impact of each whirlwind, released one after another, incapacitated the enemies in no time. One of his martial arts masters assigned to teach him martial arts, Master Jack Wind, had impar
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 14 An Offer From Chadwick
Chad grinned devilishly at her.The words “It’s not a dream” echoed in her mind again and again. She reached for her clothes to realise she was wearing nothing but a sheer outer coat that didn’t belong to her.Her facial expression morphed into that of pure rage.“What… What happened? What am I doing here? And you, why are you in my room?”He just threw his head back and laughed at her.“Do you remember what you just asked of me? Are you saying that you’re going back on your own words?”She felt the heat of her embarrassment creeping across her cheeks. He leered at her. “If you, as a future advisor, can swallow what you just said, then who would take your words seriously in future?”His words made sense, but how could she have even thought she was still dreaming, after waking up from another lusty dream of performing the deed with Chad?She could have slapped herself on the face. She tried to move, but Chad inhibited her movement. Earlier he had distanced himself from her and treated
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 15 Teasing to Temptation
When she woke up the next morning, Jade's mind was still in turmoil from what had happened the night before. She couldn't explain why she could hear what Chad conversed with the intruder, although she did not know who that person was.She had never heard of a dark inn before and was apprehensive about what kind of drug they had imposed on her to have such an effect on her. It had disabled her ability to defend herself and sent her into a deep sleep and even when Chad had absorbed half of it, she still felt impacted. For one, she almost lost control of her emotions and agreed to the mercenary's terms.Sky was waiting for her outside her room when she emerged. He surprised her with a hug, although what left her apprehensive was the words 'dark inn'.The words 'dark inn' had only emerged in literature for her. But she firmly suspected something was not right. Who in the world could have borne such a grudge against her? It was just after she received the news that her betrothed was dead,
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 16 The First Village
They had journeyed by sea for three days. On the second night of the trip, Jade wasn’t astonished when Sky substituted Chad’s place in the cabin to explain the situation to her. By then, they had already known that Jade was aware of the deception. Sky had put up an act of vomiting to gain her sympathy, although she was sure it was Chad who convinced him to, for reasons unknown.Unfortunately, alone with him in the cabin, she had to listen to Sky’s confession a third time. The first time was back on the island, where she just smiled and accepted his flowers. The second time was when he embraced her back at the inn. The third time was right now.Just how many more times more did she have to expect a confession?Jade was exhausted. But she couldn’t give out her relationship with her aunt just yet, and she had to reject him without hurting his feelings. Now that her engagement was revoked by the king, she had to find another party to make Sky give up.Her desire was getting uncontrollabl
Tangled with the Runaway Prince Chapter 17 Fooled
She wondered who could have sent the boy when it was barely a week that she had arrived at the village, and few people could have recognised her in the customary dress of the Vigils.Her curiosity prompted her to head over to the address to see who it was who was looking for her. The boy had mentioned little, just that she would find someone she knew there. After passing her the message, he vanished without a trace, swift like a fox.The scene that unfolded before her eyes later turned out to be such a disappointment. Following the tip of the boy, she found herself on the outskirts of the village.In the distance, Chad had his arm curled unceremoniously around the meagre arms of a petite girl with unkempt hair and narrow eyes. She dressed drably in tattered clothing and appeared sloppy. Jade recognised the girl as Sally, the country girl smitten with Chad and clung to him like glue. What she never expected was how Chad would have a rendezvous with that country bumpkin in secret. She f
