Danica
“Ahh!!” I screamed as I hugged him tight, making sure my hair was allover his face.
Oh my God! What just happened?
What just happened??
“Danica..?” He called, sounding shocked.
Thank goodness, neither of his hands were touching me.
“Please, close your eyes, my prince. Please. Please….”I squeaked, but there was no reply from him.
“My prince!”
“Alright. Alright, my eyes are closed” he cut in, but I didn’t know if I were to believe him or not with how late he had replied.
What was wrong with him?
Slowly, I pulled a little from the hug so I could look into his face. His eyes were closed.
Oh, geez! Thank goodness.
In a brisk, I bent and picked the towel from the floor, then tied it round my chest.
I quickly moved away from him.
“I’m….I’m done, my prince” I said nervously as I moved my hair backwards.
He opened his eyes and gave me a head to toe look.
“What happened?” His voice was almost a whisper.
“I’m…I’m sorry, my prince. I was just… When you opened the door, it was unexpected and you hit me in the face. So, the….” I paused and itched my nape.
“Its fine. I…actually came to give these to you”, he said as he stretched out the clothes he was holding and that was when I realized – he was actually having some clothes with him.
“T….Thank you, my prince” there was a little crack in my voice as I took the clothes from him, my gaze on the floor.
There was a brief silence.
“You should come down for breakfast” he added and left.
Huh? Why was he sounding a bit cold?
I stared blankly at the shut door and wondered if there was some wrong.
Hopefully, they shouldn’t.
I sighed and walked to the bed, putting the clothes on. In a short while, I was done and just immediately, the door opened abruptly.
It was Princess Mabel.
“Oh my goodness!! Danica!” She exclaimed as she ran to me and pulled me in a tight hug.
O…kay.
“My princess….good morning” I greeted lightly, a little uncomfortable at how tight she held me.
“Oh, Danica. I was so worried about you. My brother told me what happened. How’re you feeling now?” She rushed het words, pulling from the hug.
“I’m fine now, my princess. Please, don’t worry about me” I said.
“Of course, I should worry. Nathan said you were with him when you got shut. And its all because you had accompanied him to the party. Oh, Danica. I’m so sorry. How’s the wound?”,
“Its better now. The pains are gone already. I told you I’m fine” I smiled.
“Oh! Of course, you should be. I can’t bear the fact you got hurt because of my brother” she chuckled.
“Anyway, I was on my way to school but decided to drop by and check up on you. Come on, you should get some food. The dining is set” she added and held my hand, leading me out of the room.

Scott
“It’s important, ma’am. I need to see Danica” I grouse as I stood in from of Danica’s grandma who was still telling me sht about Danica not being at home.
“Its a long story, Scott. Danica was shot last night and….something else happened. She isn’t home at the moment, Scott. That’s just the end of the story”. She answered.
Wait..what?
“She was shot?” I asked, surprised.
“By who? What happened?”
“We….We don’t know. But we believe it was a stray bullet”.
“So, she’s….she’s at the hospital?”
“Not….really. But she’ll be there soon. Listen t me, Scott. Like I earlier said,its a long story. There’s a big problem and I don’t want to talk about it. But hopefully….everything should be fine – if it’d ever be”,
Her expression was alarming. What could the problem be?
‘I dont mean to dismiss you, Scott. But, I need to get ready to leave” she mumbled and walked away, leaving me dumbstruck.
Dmn it. I needed to talk to Danica, confirm the mark on her waist.
Could she really be the missing disciple? But why? How did it even happen?
I needed answers from her. My boys were earnestly looking for her and the pay was quite good as well.
If indeed she was the missing disciple, then we needed to come to an agreement.

Danica
The princess and I joined Nathan at the dining but she left almost immediately as she said she had to hurry for classes.
I ate silently with the prince, who barely talked. He acted really cold and looked like he was troubled. What could the problem be?
Could he….Could it be possible he had really seen my nature state?
Oh goodness! Is that the reason he was suddenly acting cold? He saw my nked state which he didn’t want to see?
Maybe I should apologize to him.
“My prince…”, I was about speaking up when a maid showed up and interrupted.
“Sorry to interrupt, ma’am” she bowed
“But there’s a man out there, requesting to see you”.
A man? Who could it possibly be?
“What’s his name?” Prince Nathan asked.
“Uh…he said his name is Williams and Danica was expecting him”
Hold on; Williams
Isn’t that Bitna’s dad?
Oh, my! He was probably here to take me for the DNA test.
I looked at the prince.
“I…I need to check him out”.
“Of course”, he muttered and I stood up and left with the maid.
I got out of the house and met him there – close to the gate. He was really the one.
My eyes were on him as I got close, imagining he was really my father.
“Hey” he called lightly and I lowered my gaze.
“Good morning, sir”, I fiddled with my nails.
“Good morning, dear. How’re you doing?”
“I’m…I’m fine”.
There was a pause.
“Its time for the….test. And knowing you’d be at the prince’s house, I came to pick you up”. He said.
I was silent for a while. Do I really want to go for this test?
“Danica” he called softly and I looked at him.
“I…I need to get ready. I’ll be back shortly” I told him and left, going back to the house.
I walked into the sitting room and met the prince still at the dining, but he wasnt eating.
“My prince” I called.
“I…I need to go with him to the hospital. Its time for the test”,
“Oh. Is it?” He asked and I nodded.
“Okay then. When you’re done, will you be coming back here?”
“I…I don’t know yet, my prince. But I’d want to” I gulped hard.
“Okay then. Bye”.
“Thank you, my prince”,
And as I turned around to leave, I still noticed that cold look in his eyes – that troubled look.
What could be wrong with him?
