"...who are you?" She had some guesses, though needed to confirm them.
"Oh, I'm Azad. Your family hired me to drag you back home."
"I won't return." Her tone was harsh.
"Too bad, you will." He gave her bag.
"Where 's my cane?"
"It 's broken." He handled it,so she could check herself.
"Just my luck."
"Don't be such a downer,I'll guide you to the palace." He offered his arm.
"You don't understand,if I get married I'll die." She squeezed his wrist,then got up.
"Dramatic,aren't we?"
"You'd be surprised."
They both wandered around,he had no idea where he was going. In fact, he got even deeper in the forest, that's the sole reason Selina accepted his 'guidance'.
Once he gets worn out, I'll get something to substitute my cane and say goodbye for good.
A giant rock was blocking the path he stopped abruptly, she took it as an opportunity to mock him.
"We got to the palace so fast,I thought we were walking in circles!"
"Haha, very funny. I'm sure you can do better." He challenged her.
"I'll show you the way out,if you promise you'll let me go."
"YOU?" To him,a blind woman wouldn't be capable of doing that much.
"Trust me or become fertilizer to the plants,choose wisely." She remarks with one hand on her hip.
"...Go ahead,princess." He hated the idea of dying pathetically and for no reason.
She concentrated on the strong yet sweet smell of molains that the wind carried. There was a road near the forest filled with trees that gave those fruits.
The scent came from the north,from past experiences she knew there was a small river Azad could follow until they got to the safety of the road.
This path was the opposite direction of the castle,of course her captor being the one at disadvantage couldn't refuse nor demand another route. In next to no time,they got on the roadway.
"You're truly amazing." He was utterly dumbfounded.
Selina was going to get married off to a guy who had killed his three previous wives, because to them she was a useless existence for the simple fact of being born blind.
The princess escaped with the help of Estelle, her maid and best friend. After finding out, her family sent Azad, a well known tracker, to bring her back in time for the wedding.
Will she be captured by him or she'll manage to capture his heart?
