Married to the arrogant king

I froze immediately I heard the guards say slit my throat. How do I escape this, should I fight them? But if I do that will only alert more guards and the prince.

“Inform prince Kieran, that there is an intruder in the palace,” one of the guards yelled.

A guard immediately left to call prince Kieran.

…

“Prince Kieran, we have an intruder in the palace,” a guard announced.

Kieran glanced at Carl, ” who could the intruder be?”

“I think I know who,” Carl replied.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

They both followed the guard to where the intruder was standing.

Both Carl and Kieran watched how the intruder was surrounded by a group of guards.

The intruder’s head was down and he looked so small and frightened, standing amidst the guard.

“What’s going on here” Kieran yelled.

…

“What’s going on here,” prince Kieran yelled, and I shivered slightly.

I felt a bead of sweat forming on my forehead, feeling slightly afraid to look at him.

If it were under normal circumstances, I would have beaten the hell out of him, as I did before.

“Your highness, we caught this intruder roaming around the palace,” one of the guards told.

I closed my eyes, wishing I could punch the guard’s face.

“Who are you,” Prince Kieran muttered, striding toward me.

I sighed. There was no reason to hide my identity anymore, I’ve already been caught.

Prince Kieran was now standing in front of me and we were just a breath away.

I removed the helmet, raising my head to glare at him.

P… prin… cess Zara, Kieran stuttered.

“Hello prince Kieran! I let out with a smirk.

Prince Kieran backed away from me immediately, peering at me like he just saw a ghost.

Zara! Someone called. Why did the voice sound so familiar? It sounded like Carl’s voice.

I snap my head in his direction, to meet his hazel eyes staring at me.

My heart started to beat fast. Carl can’t be here, right? It’s either I was dreaming, or I was seeing things.

Maybe because I badly wanted him to come save me.

I didn’t care if it was a dream or if people were watching. I ran toward him, throwing myself on his body.

Carl stumbled backward due to the force but steadied himself immediately. I wrapped my legs around his waist, while he held my waist.

I’ve never been so happy to see someone before. I also didn’t think a day would come when I would be so happy to see the arrogant king.

Carl? I called, climbing down from his body. He gaped at me in disbelief. I held his face, gazing into his eyes. What if it’s just a dream?

There was only one way to find out.

I kicked him hard on the groin, then slapped his face. After that, I pinched myself.

Everyone gasped, peering at me in horror, while Carl screeched, holding his balls.

I gasp, realizing he was real.

“I’m not dreaming,” I screamed, and Carl glared at me like he wanted to kill me.

I was happy but also found it strange. how did he find me, and how come he looks so calm? I mean he should be fighting with Kieran for abducting me.

I glanced from Carl to Kieran, in confusion.

CARL’S POV

I was stunned when she took off the helmet. I was seeing her again after two days, but it felt like it’s been years.

For some reason, I felt happy. My heart was pounding hard and fast against my chest. Although I got angry when she humiliates and taunt me, I had to admit, that it was not the same without her.

I got used to having her around, even if she annoys me.

Zara! I called.

She whirled and her brown eyes meets with my hazel ones.

I was breathless while staring at her beautiful small face. She looked astounded, as if not believing her eyes.

I didn’t expect what she did next. She ran towards me and flung herself on me. She wrap her legs around my waist, while I held her tiny waist.

My breath hitched. What! Is she hugging me right now? to say I was shocked was an understatement. no, it must be a fugitive of my imagination. I couldn’t believe it.

My whole body froze at our closeness. She felt so small against me, and her waist was tiny. I couldn’t help the feeling building up inside me.

It was nice and I felt happy and also strange at the same time.

She climbed down from my body, holding my face in her little hands while staring at me.

Carl! she called, although it was not the first time she said my name, I couldn’t help but feel it sounded nice this time.

“Carl, what are you thinking, You don’t like her right? she’s the annoying princess, come back to your senses.” my mind was telling me.

I was now convinced she has bewitched me. I needed to see a magician real soon to remove whatever spell she cast on me.

I was still lost staring at her, when she kicked me hard on the groin, and also slapped me.

Groaning, I held my balls, writhing in pain

Shit! It hurts.

…

Prince Kieran stood, watching the show with his guards. How Zara hugged Carl with her legs around his waist.

Uhhh! How sweet, he thought, whipping invincible tears from his eyes.

So the rogue princess had a soft side. She looked adorable, he thought.

He thought she would be giving Carl the beating of his life.

Although she broke his one of his eye and nose, he was beginning to change his opinion about her. Maybe because she misunderstood me, that’s why she was harsh.

The guards standing around also thought princess Zara and king Carl looked good together, what a lovely sight.

Prince Kieran was also blushing hard like he was the one in Carl’s place. “I didn’t know my friend would like a woman someday.”

Suddenly, Zara kicked Carl on his balls, and slapped him. they all gasped, holding their breath.

Uhhh! Prince Kieran shrieked, as he stared in horror. I seem to have spoken too soon.

She’s not adorable, she’s a savage.

Goodness, he prayed Carl would be able to have children after such a brutal kick from Princess Zara.

The fear he had for her instantly doubled. He vowed that he would never do anything to anger her.

The guards were still in shock, as they stared on. Sweat dripping from their foreheads.

We dared to threaten a princess who could slap and kick Carl in the groin.

Lord save us all.

…

“I’m not dreaming” Zara yelled, and I glared at her. She almost destroyed an entire generation because she thought she was dreaming.

What a woman! She’s so annoying. And here I was, happy that she hugged me. I forget who she was, an annoying person, a barbarian.

Zara suddenly looked from me to Kieran, as if struck by a realization. I could see the confusion writhing in her eyes, and I could also guess what she was thinking.

She was probably wondering how I found her, and why I was so calm since she was abducted by Kieran.

How do I begin to explain that the whole thing was planned by me? Seeing that she already kicked me in the balls, what else will she do when I tell her.
