Chapter 3 -Part 1-
Klaus:
I watched as my future wife, mate, ran out of her palace as fast as she could and smiled.
It took her long enough to do it in the first place as I had expected her to run away a long time ago, but then again, she was still too young and innocent for that kind of thing.
She stood in the middle of the road admiring the view of the stars and the moon in the night sky, something that she did back when she was in her chamber, therefor to see everything she was seeing right now up-close only made her smile.
I walked toward the bakery which was on the side of the road and noticed that they were making a fresh batch of dessert, I looked at my mate once again before vampire speeding toward the bakery and looking at the man who smiled upon seeing me clearly not noticing that I vampire sped toward his door.
“Good evening sir” he smiled at me.
“Good evening” I smiled back, I looked at my mate once more to find a car honking its horn at her and couldn’t help but chuckle “you see that girl over there?”
I pointed at the princess who was crossing the street, the man nodded and looked at me with a raised eyebrow “I want her to try these cookies and some of your hot chocolate, I’ll pay for them, but tell her that they’re on the house” I said looking at her to find her crossing the street, not giving the old man a chance to reply though knowing that he’d do as told, I put a hundred duckets on the cashier table and walked out of the bakery before the princess caught sight of me.
I watched as the old man invited her in and smiled when I saw her shy state at the man’s invitation, knowing that she probably had nothing to pay with, especially having left in the rush that she was in, and plus due to her mother and father never even allowing her to go out of the palace, therefor I couldn’t really expect her to be carrying any money on her.
Smiling at the sight of her eating a cookie, I walked inside the bakery stopping whatever questions would be coming from the old man at the bakery as I could tell that he might probably grow suspicious at the man who suddenly asked him and his wife to invite the girl in.
I walked toward the cashier, my eyes meeting my mate’s for a second and I could swear fires erupted through the room as I stared at her, stopping myself from running toward her and claiming her as my own here and then, I teared my eyes from her and turned my gaze to the old man who was looking at me with a smile on his face, clearly understanding my attraction toward the girl.
“One coffee please, and some of those cookies, they smell delicious” I said smiling, I knew that Kiara recognized my voice, having spoken behind her so many times, but always leaving before she had a chance to see who I was, her parents were stupid to believe that I didn’t know of her existence, I made a mental note to make them pay for everything they put the princess through to hide her from me, to break their part of the deal, they were going to pay a great deal of it, but when the time was right, now I wanted to take my princess.
I sat down on a table which was beside hers and smiled as I looked at her, admiring her innocence as she looked at the cookies as if they were the most precious things in the world, taking a bite out of my own cookie, I understood her expression, they did taste heavenly, I had to admit, they were clearly made with love and care.
“What do you think?” The old woman asked me and I smiled nodding in approval to her, her own smile widened as she looked at her husband proudly.
“It was my husband’s recipe, his mother had taught it to him a long time ago, but he had never told me about it, then he decided that today would be a great addition to our bakery” the woman explained, her eyes met her husband’s lovingly and both the princess and I looked at the couple with a similar smile on our faces, I looked at the princess and her gaze met my own as she smiled and nodded at the couple who seemed lost in one another making me chuckle.
I raised an eyebrow at the princess wanting to clear my throat, but she shook her head giving me a warning expression as she looked me in the eye, her expression turning playfully serious letting me know that she didn’t want me breaking their moment, despite not knowing who I was, our eyes spoke to one another as if we’ve known each other our whole lives.
I shook my head and took a sip of my coffee, my eyes meeting the princess’s once again to find her looking at me while she drank her own hot chocolate.
My blue eyes stayed on her green ones for a few seconds before she put the drink down and took the survey paper that was on the table and a pencil, writing something making me frown in confusion before she extended it to me.
Raising an eyebrow, I noticed her cursive writing, making me chuckle as I read what she wrote.
-Soon love, I will be the one to make you explore the world, just a little more patience.
I shook my head at her smart mind, how she had related to me I did not understand, but she smiled and got up thanking the old man and lady before walking out of the bakery.
