I can't tell how many days we travelled. At first, I kept count, but after the thirtieth day, I stopped keeping count. Moon, Jol, and I spent our night in any town we were lucky to see before the moon made its appearance.On some days, we sleep out in the open because we were either far from the village or Moon wasn't comfortable with the people of the town we passed. "Are you tired? Do you need to rest?" Moon asked. He had our bags slung over his back, and his gaze forward."For how long are we going to keep going forward?" I gasped from fatigue. It has been so long, but we are yet to locate the kingdom Moon came from. It was as if we haven't made a dent in the trip."It won't be long, I hope." Moon glanced towards the hills. "I heard a rumour from the last village. They said strange people reside after the hill. I think they are the ones we seek," Moon glanced towards the hills. "This was what you told us when we were in the third village." Jol frowned at Moon. "Right now, I feel

It was a heart-wrenching sight, to see the old queen shed tears. Her face was puffy and her eyes red. She looked so sad that I was tempted to ask Moon if we could stay back. The old king stood next to her. He robbed soothing circles on her back as he tried to console his grieving wife. “You don't have to leave, Nephew. If there is anything you want that isn't here, I will have the best of my soldiers get it for you. For as long as I live, we will treat you like the family you are.” Prince Dark, who brought us to the palace, tried to talk us out of leaving. But I know it was futile.Moon had made up his mind about it. There will be no changing it. “Should we not find what we seek, we will surely return?” Moon forced a smile. “But for now, I wish to go out there to seek my mother. May the gods protect us all. Gods willing, I will be back.” The prince nodded. He walked over to me and took my hands in his. “Take care of my nephew. Should there be a cause for an emergency, we are alw

Moon decided to check out the kingdom I told him about. I doubt I've ever seen him as happy as he was when I told him about the kingdom the villagers spoke of.“That's my Kingdom.” He looked so certain that it made me roll my eyes at him. “We will leave tomorrow morning.” I leaned on the trunk of the tree. “It has been a long night, I need to rest my bones.” I yawned.“I apologize for not getting to you faster than I would have.” Moon looked apologetic. “Before I realized you were missing, it was too late.”“You don't have to apologize. I know you were having a brawl with Jol like you always do.” I rolled my eyes.“A brawl? It was a full-blown fight! And before you ask, he was the one who started the arguments. Moon only knows how to fight and not how to win an argument. That was why he beat me up!” Jol fumed. I chuckled. “I know.” Though Jol ordinarily tries to egg Moon on, I was aware that Moon was the cause of half of the fights they had on their way. “It was what made this tri

There was no sign of anyone in the streets. And when I nosily asked, I was told that it was because of the yearly mourning. Every year the entire Kingdom comes together to moan the death of their first prince who would have been the heir to the throne. Moon didn't say a word as he continued following the man. He tightly held my hand in his as if he were afraid of letting go. Jol took the rear. He occasionally glanced around, vigilantly making sure there wasn't any danger lurking around us. We were practically strangers in a mysterious kingdom. We are yet to know where we were, and the people with us. Keeping our guard down will be the worst mistake, ever.We reached the castle, which was at the farthest part of the kingdom. The castle seemed a bit secluded from the entire world. The large trees around made it seem as if the castle was in the middle of a forest, and not a village. “This was where I was taken,” Moon murmured as he pointed towards the clusters of trees on the lef

“I guess I'll have to take over.” He flipped us unexpectedly and had me under him. “I must please you, and not the other way around.” I bit my lower lip as I watched him. He lowered his mouth to mine, and I opened up thinking he was about to kiss me, but he proved me wrong when he changed course to my neck.He lightly nibbled on my neck before he broke the skin. My blood sipped from the wound on my neck and gushed into his mouth. He sucked on my neck. I moaned at the sensation. Fuck. I felt electrified at the same time as I felt cold.“Moon,” I moaned as when felt his hard, erect cock poking on my leg.I reached out and wrapped my hand around the back of his head as I held him closer to my neck.He trailed his lips and tongue up my jaw until he kissed me again. His kisses were far more eager than before, but not as hurried and fast-paced as I wanted.I let go of my hold on his nape and trailed my hand down his exposed chest. I pressed my hand down on his chest as I pushed him d
