ONCE UPON A KINGDOM : CHAPTER 31 – 40

CHAPTER 38
Luciano took the glass of red wine from the maid and after bowing, she left. He walked round and round the pool, trying to get his thoughts together.
Anita… What was that? What took place before his face back at school wasn’t just an ordinary thing.
It felt so strange, it looks so strange. It’s a mystery.
Where could that tunnel happened to come from? Anita can’t be just like that.
He also can’t act oblivious to her disappearance, he has to call her and see. Afterwards, he’s going to know his next move, whether or not to go visit her.
Sipping from his wine, he signalled for his phone from the guard standing behind him. Collecting it, he scrolled through his phone for her contact.
Sabrina having finished the meal halfway, Seth allowed her to go. A maid directed her to the pool and she walked over there.
“Prince Luciano…”Sighting him, Sabrina called jogging over to him from behind.
By then Luciano had pressed on Anita’s contact and it was now on dial.
He turned around and he couldn’t believe she was here. He remembered how he had left and restricted himself from knocking at Seth’s door.
Sabrina smiled at him, and as she glanced at the phone in his palms which shone clearing for her eyes, she made to talk,”I have to tell you som…”but stopped when she saw the name flashing on the screen… Anita.
“Hey. You said what?*he asked her, noticing how she had stopped on her words.
Quickly looking away from his phone she shook her head.
“Nevermind, I’ll get going.”she said and started leaving.
Luciano looked at his phone because he had seen her glancing at it, and back at her retreating figure.
Before she could finally leave, he grabbed her lightly by the arm and spun her over.
Almost tripping on her feet, he quickly caught her in his arm before she could fall.
And she was left with staring at his enchanting hazel pair of eyes…

Before she could finally leave, he grabbed her lightly by the arm and spun her over.
Almost tripping on her feet, he quickly caught her in his arm before she could fall.
And she was left with staring at his enchanting hazel pair of eyes…
Luciano held her tight, and even though he was staring so deep into her eyes, his hold on her didn’t loosen as it rather hardened.
An electrifying jolt strung through their eyes, which they both noticed.
He made to disconnect their gaze but immediately his eyes drooped downward, he knew there was no way out.
Her plump pink lips catch his attention and it was like a whisper, it keeps calling out to meet his.
She felt her body sting with a jolt when she realized he has his eyes on her lips. On instinct, she rolled a little tip of her tongue over her bottom lip.
He gulped down nothing. That little move struck a sense of enchantment in his joints, such that he found those ravishing lips back at him and he started leaning in closer.
Seth knew he shouldn’t have but he found himself walking around the house before he could stop himself.
He needed to find her. Shit! He has to know where she was such in a hurry too.
He took the turn leading to the pool but abruptly stopped halfway, suddenly uninterested.
He decided to leave. But just as he was turning back, a caught a certain glimpse that had him snapping his head to where the pool was located at.
His eyes lost all colours immediately. He didn’t even know when his fists started curling up into tight fists.
No doubt, he was annoyed.
