???????? The Prince And I Chapter TEN:
(Slave To The Royals ????)
???? EFUA KELECHI’S POV ????
Lotanna’s breath fans my neck as he holds me preventing both of us from falling to the ground when I rub into him. I gulp and immediately step back releasing his hold on me.
“Good Morning Prince Lotanna” A warrior who I assume to be the leader because of the difference in his uniform. . steps in immediately. I didn’t even notice him around. “I’m sorry you had to see the irrational behavior of my trainees, they would be disciplined”
I look at Lotanna to decipher his reaction, he grins at the leader. “I am not in anyway offended Amenze” his eyes meets mine and funily i can’t look away. “Actually if you’d ask me, I’d say I was rather amused by the showdown” he states matter-of-factly earning a wide eyed gasp from Amenze, the leader.
“Oh” is Amenze’s reply to him, the other warriors stand from their crouched position and from the corner of my eyes I can see Tega glaring at me, pain evident in his features but trying his best not to show it.
I look at Amenze who is standing beside Lotanna. “I have not gotten my regalia” I say facing him squarely trying to ignore the warm feel of Lotanna’s body nearly touching mine. What is anyway? Why am I so aware of his presence?
Amenze gives me a skeptical look, his eyes tells me that he hates me as much as everyone here does but he doesn’t speak about it. “Follow Tari and let him take you to where you can get it” he says instead.
“Very well then, I will be take my leave then Amenze” i reply him with a mock bow and start to leave when I hear Lotanna’s voice.
“Wait” he half yells and I stop on my track and turn to him. As usual everyone stays silent probably wondering just like i am why he suddenly asked me to wait.
???? LOTANNA ROYAL’S POV ????
I gulp as she turns to stare at me with those big brown eyes of hers. Why the hell did I ask her to stop? I can see Dubem’s curious stare from beside me and Amenze’s questioning look at me.
“Um…” I place my hands on my neck and think of a lie to tell and then I speak stupidly. “I need a guard!” I blurt out.
“What!” Dubem and Amenze blurts out. Efua looks at me as if i have grown two heads.
“Uh yeah… I mean Dubem just came back from the states with me so he would have lost his touch, I need someone who would guard me till Dubem gets back on his feet” I say all the while keeping my eyes on Efua.
“And how do I come into this?” Efua asks, her eyes darting from me to Dubem.
The next thing I say surprises even myself. “Because you will be my bodyguard” I state firmly.
“Ehn!” Efua exclaims while the others only stare at me dumbfounded. “Me? Your bodyguard? Are you serious at all!”
“Mind your language with the prince young maiden… If the prince deems you fit to be his bodyguard who are you to object!” Amenze all but yells at her. A sly smile spreads on my lip as Efua glares at Amenze furiously. She is cute. I observe even in that oversized coat she has stuffed her petite frame in.
Somehow I can’t help but stop staring at her coupled with the fact that she has been on my mind since yesterday, throughout the whole night even.
“Well but your prince is delusional! I want to serve the palace not your prince… That was the deal your King Majesty made with me!!” She yells back.
Did she just call me Delusional? I stalk closer to her, Amenze steps back probably in fear and I know the rest of the warriors are holding their breath as to what I would do. But as I expected Efua holds her stance folding her already wounded palm tightly into fist. If given the chance she might as well tackle me to the ground. I chuckle inwardly at the thought.
When I am only few inches from her, I use the tip of my finger to pull her chin up to me. I might be mistaken at the way her breath quickens. “You made a deal to serve the palace, aren’t I part of the palace?” I ask her with a smirk..
She glares at me and swats my hands away from her face, stepping back from me. “Did I say you were delusional? I was wrong you are nothing but a crazy maniac! And I Efua Kelechi will not guard you!” She says with so much ferocity, I might as well believes she hates me.
Isn’t she suppose to be grateful that I helped her? If not for me she would have been caught right?. She still got caught anyway but nevertheless… I gave her my shirt too.
Efua’s chest is rising and falling as she glared at me. “But you do owe me one Efua” I whisper and she stills and looks up at me, her eyes flashing with emotions I cannot decipher.
“You want to take it that way Prince Lotanna?” She asks and I smirk with a shrug of my shoulder, barely aware that our exchange is being watched by a couple of palace warriors.
“Yes I want to take it that way because from what I see you have an aversion to feeling guilty” I remark saucily.
“Fine” she says and steps closer to me, her small body almost pressing into mine.
“Till Dubem gets back on his feet… I’ll be your body guard Prince Lotanna”
