The next morning, Sonehri opened her eyes slowly to find Aryan sleeping as he rested his head on the edge of the bed while he was sitting on the chair next to her bed, his hand was holding tight to hers when she smiled at him then moved her hand through his hair "Aryan" She called his name waking him up, he woke up looking at her "Sonehri" He said smiling but his smile faded remember the nightmare from last night "how do you feel?" he asked "fine, a little tired but I'm fine" She said when he hugged her tight so happy that she has come back to him again, Sonehri find herself smiling as Aryan was hugging her she felt love and care in the hug true feelings when he pulled away looking at her "the sun only rise when you open your eyes" he said when she looked down blushing then looked at him "what happened to me?" She asked "envious were trying to separate us but they won't be able to do it, Sonehri I love you" he admit it to her when she looked at him in shock don't know what to say "I don't want you to say anything but I want a chance to make you love me" he said when she blushed looking down
The next few days Aryan was spoiling Sonehri so much, they spend a lot of time together, she was sitting in the garden when he came and sit next to her "how do you feel?" he asked "spoiled" She said with a smirk "it's just the thought of losing you was too much to handle" he commented when she smiled shy "you know I like you that way" he stated when she looked at him surprised "the shy calm you is charming not like the crazy you" She glared at him "crazy me!" She exclaimed "yes, the crazy you is adorable" He commented when she smiled when one of the maids came towards him "My king, sir Tyler is here to see you" She said when Aryan nodded then went to the thorn room, Tyler bow in respect when Aryan sit on his thorn
"you asked to see me, Tyler. What is it?" Aryan asked
"I got your orders your highness about sending me away , removing me from leading the army" Tyler explained
"yes, I see it's for the best and you will take Alexander place on our borders while he will lead the army, we are in truce so some changes won't harm" Aryan explained when Tyler forced a smile on his face
"as you see my king but what about princess Leah & our marriage?" He asked
"Talk to her, it's her call … I can't force her and from what I heard it's not going well between you two" Aryan said when Tyler nodded in understanding then left when Alexander entered
"I don't trust him, my king" He stated
"neither do I that's why I removed him but he won't harm at his position, but it's all up to Leah now" He stated
At this time Leah was talking to Sonehri in the garden when she saw Tyler, She walked away trying to avoid him but he catch up with her "princess, can we talk" he said when Leah looked upset "Tyler, it's over there is nothing you will say can fix any of the horrible things you have done" She stated
"But I love you" he said when she rolled her eyes
"you love me, what if I was a poor village girl would you be in love with me, you love Influence and power and I can ensure you that, that's all what I mean to you" She explained
"You never talked to me like that; it's because of the prince, right?"
"Nicholas has nothing to do with that" She stated
"sure, I bet" He said sarcastic about to leave when he turned to his heels to face her again " I promise you Leah, you won't marry him" He said before leaving
After dinner Sonehri was going to go upstairs when she felt dizzy, the poison still effecting her she lean to the railing when she found herself lifted, she looked to find Aryan carrying her "what are you doing?" She asked with a smile "taking you to the room, you seem tired" He said as he get upstairs carrying her "what everyone will say? You're a king" She asked as they reached the room, he put her down in front of the room "they will say the king is in love" He said smiling at her before leaving, she entered the room and throw herself on bed for the first time she feel that way, Aryan's words were like magic, a spell that she fell under it's effect, she forget everything the truce, her deal with her brothers. She felt only one thing that she is falling for Aryan….She made up her mind, next morning she will go and talk to Damon calling everything off
The morning has come and Sonehri went to the castle to talk to Damon but he was in a hunting trip for a few days, she was ready to tell him everything but she hesitated. So she get back to her castle
Damon & Nicholas were in the hunting trip "so, how are you going to make Aryan break the truce himself?" Nicholas asked
"You'll know but I have to ask "are you still with me on this?" Damon asked
"Why are you asking me this?" Nicholas exclaimed
"Because I know what you feel towards Leah" Damon stated when Nicholas sighed
"let's not talk about this" Nicholas stated and start to ride his horse faster to get away from his brother, Damon felt that his siblings won't stay by his side for long that's why he had to move quickly
At night Sonehri was sleeping when Aryan entered, he looked at her while she was sleeping, she looked so beautiful, he was deeply falling for her like he never fell for any other woman before…yes he never felt that way, she was sneaking her way to his heart in a way he never thought that will happen to him, too bad she doesn't feel the same way about him for how long will he be able to handle this situation , how will he manage to love her that much when she doesn't, maybe she will love him as time goes by but what if she didn't...why love has to be so complicated? he asked himself but he can't find the answer , it's just the way it is
After a few days Damon was still in the hunting trip when he found a masked man following him, he came closer when Damon attacked him but the man blocked Damon and revealed himself to him, it was Tyler "Tyler!" Damon exclaimed surprised "we need to talk, Prince Damon" Tyler stated as Damon was still surprised
