Her innocence and His coldness

-5 : Celebration!

Third pov

Sara was walking with her head down. She couldn't face the people, actually she didn't had any courage to look at them. She was afraid of him. "What if he decides to kill her family? No, she can't let that happen. She have to protect her people " While her mind was fighting with her enormous thought, she suddenly bumped into something. Uhh, it was a person. No one could differentiate between him and a wall.

Wait. "I bumped into someone ",she reminded herself. This wasn't her kingdom anymore. She had to be careful.

She quickly murmured an apology,

"I am sorry "

She didn't dare to look up , she was nervous hella nervous. this wasn't her peaceful place anymore. This had become a hell for her, as per her imagination.

" Look up ", a hoarse voice commanded .

But she was too anxious to look up. She gulped down still head toward the ground.

She felt her cheeks getting wet. She was crying! No matter how hard she tried to hide her tears ,it finally broke out.

On the other hand,

Jacob was standing in front of Sara . He was coming from the balcony when he saw Sara who was indulge in her own thoughts. As soon as he moved forward, she bumped into him. He could sence her fear and nervousness. To calm her down, he told her to look up. But alas! His voice betrayed him. Instead of calming her down ,it made her more scared.

Although his purpose was to calm her, he couldn't stand her not obeying his order.

[All right. After all, He was an arrogant, ruthless king. Obviously he has this irritation. He hated it when someone didn't obey his orders. Above all , habits doesn't change easily. ]

Gritting his teeths, he retorted ,

" I SAID LOOK UP."

His tone sent shivers down her veins. She gulped and slowly moved her head up. She didn't have the heart to offend him. What if he harms her or her family? She wouldn't let her people being tortured.

Finally her head was straight, her eyes were fixed on his leg.

This irritated him. Soon she felt a force from her back. Jacob pulled her to him , putting his one arm around her waist.

Her hands got their place over his chest. His other hand touched her chin and forced her face to move up and their eyes got locked.

No sooner had their eyes met then he felt a tug in his heart. He shouldn't have done it. Her eyes had become red and swellen from all these sob and cry.

Tears were streaming down her cheeks.

This sight was unbearable for him. He never intended to harm her but was handcuffed by his father's promise.

His grip was tight which scared Sara more. She didn't utter anything, thinking about the consequence.

At first, Sara thought she saw something in his eyes expect anger and dominance. They were soft ; no they had emotions , care . Alas ! They changed into their old furious and mad look the next moment.

" What are you even thinking, Sara? He can't have any emotion. He is a monster . He is your enemy ", she repeated these in her minds." It was just my imagination", she shrugged it off. A beast like him can never have soft eyes.

" Why is she scared of me? Can't she see I kept her family because of her? If not that ,why would I leave my enemies alive? " Jacob asked himself.

Looking at her tears falling non-stop and her trembling body, his mind became perplexed. " Why is she crying more?" She blinked deeply and gulped down.

When his eyes dropped down, he then realized that his grip was too tight . That's why she was afraid.

He pulled his hands from her chin and waist in a hurry. It was a bit sudden. So before Sara could understand anything, she lost her balance and fall on her butt.

She whimpered in pain.

" Go to your room ", he ordered her again , " NOW! " He emphasized the last word.

Sara quickly got up and went toward her room without sparing any glance at anything and anyone.

While she was walking upstair , she heard Jacob shout.

" It's a Celebration time. Make a feast for everyone. "

Her tears welled up again. How fast her life got upside down! She didn't even imagine this happening.

She ran to her room and locked herself.

She went to the bed and jumped on the bed.

Letting her tears burst out , she digged her face into a pillow.

" I hate him. " That's all she told herself.
