If this was a dream, I don't know if I want to wake up, I wanted to elope with him at least I thought of it and I ended up getting married, even though it wasn't a proper marriage but I got married in the presence of everyone, we took the royal carriage which I was certain was taking us to his palace but I didn't know him I titled my head to look at him and our eyes met, I wanted to look away but he locked his eyes with mine and his penetrated deep into my soul, and he said " don't you want to go back and say goodbye" And I said, " not really" then he told his men to continue with the journey he then said " it's going to take at least seven days and seven nights to get to Aelynn so we'll be stopping at intervals to get some rest " I didn't know how to reply so I just nodded and it was silent again, I wanted to ask him a lot of things but I didn't know how he would react I was still lost in my thoughts when I heard someone call my name "Carmen" , he called, it sounded so beautiful on his list, so beautiful I wanted to cry, " I want you to be honest with me, okay" l looked up to see what his emotions looked like but he hid it very well and I ended up nodding he then took my knuckles and kissed it, then he drew me closer to him, I was scared at first but I soon relaxed in his harmless embrace, I felt confident with our position so confident that I was able to ask him what his name was, he looked at me and said "what do you want to call me wife" wife! my mind almond went blank, I didn't know where this courage was coming from, I wrapped my hands around his neck and said "what do you want me to call you husband" he looked like he was lost in thought before he finally said " my father and brothers call me bastard " "my men call me your highness" "but my mother named me Trystan" " I want to you to call me whatever you want" I stared at him blankly before I said "I'll call you, your highness or Prince or Trystan when I need to be formal but I'll call you husband when I want people to feel jealous, how do you like that?" he pressed his lips to mine and invaded my mouths privacy, then he said in a husky tone, that's how much I like it, l felt so happy that I cried, he wiped my tears away with his thumb and said now wife I only want you to smile, I nodded and buried my face in his embrace, the journey was going on smoothly when the carriage stopped abruptly, I was so scared that I bite down onto his shoulder but seeing his composed manner I relaxed a little he chuckled and said "no need to be scared wife especially when you're with me" I looked at him blankly and he said it's too late for us to continue with our journey so my men will set up a camp here, I nodded and he left to discuss some things with his men, I leaned back on the carriage, closed my eyes and analyzed my life since the few hours we got married and I found myself loving it. I didn't know how I fell asleep but I opened my eyes to find myself in the tent, I looked at the person laying next to me and smiled, I loved him so much I wanted to spend the rest of life with him, I looked at his raven black that was spread on the pillow and I entwined my fingers in it, I was staring at his closed eyes when his eyes fluttered open, god he's so glad looking, I loved this man, he sat up and said you shouldn't trust people easily, how could you love me so soon, what if I bite you he said in a husky tone before his teeth elongated, I stared at him blankly and he started to shake violently then he yelled "leave, leave before I hurt you" It looked like he was fighting an internal battle, I wanted to leave because the sight was scary but my feet's refused to move, it seemed like my feet's gained a mind of their own as they started to move towards him, I wrapped my arms around his shaky body and said I'd rather die in your hands than leave, his tense body became calm and he kissed me, he kissed me so hard that our souls connected, he laid me softly on the bed and said I don't want to take you in the jungle, he laid next to me and I soon fell asleep in his embrace....

The next day, we were super to continue with our journey but he told his men that we'll leave the next day because I wanted to explore the jungle, an exploration that led back to loneliness...
