Qubetron Trilogy

4. Disguise

        Charlotte has listened to every word of Cedric and shocked. He continues to ask for her suggestion. She is trying to tell something but she can't able to tell. At last she told me that this is the most happiest thing she ever heard. Princess really takes care of you. She even kept aside her status and cleaned his wounds. 

        There is a positive vibe of her. She is not like their parents. She is special. She is a bit harsh because she is a warrior and royal member. The toughness is in her blood. We can't do anything about it. But she cares about you. Another most important thing is if she marries you like she said, we become the family of royalty. So the insults of the priests from many generations can be put to stop. This can be a very good thing to the priests. 

        But I'm not forcing you to do anything. My suggestion is to take a look into her. If she is really in love with you. Then you are the luckiest man in Ceretron. Your love can change the fate of priests and as a result the respect towards us increases and people will listen to us. If they follow the nobles like us. It's a chance to change the Ceretron into a better place. So if you two really love each other and marry happily. The future of ceretron may depend on you. Every word of Charlotte is making sense to him. Once he marries Nicole. Priests will include the royal family.

         So that the child of us becomes a noble man and rules the ceretron in very noble ways. The respect towards the priests in the people increases and will listen to our words. Slowly the evil in them starts to fade out and in a few generations. Ceretron becomes a better place. So Cedric kept an open mind about Nicole and a positive vibe is generated in him about Nicole. So afterwards he is confident about her. On this side in the Palace, the Queen came to know about her behavior towards the priest and came into the Princess room. 

        She scolded her very much about her behavior and shouted very much. Nicole didn't pay attention to her. After a while, Queen got exhausted and left the room. After a while, she ordered the guards to house arrest her. She is forbidden to leave this palace. And grounded her to her room. She laughed at Queen's Innocence as Nicole knew that she would escape easily from the Palace. 

        At midnight, she changed her dress into normal people and escaped from Her room. She is a warrior, it's so much easier for her to move in disguise. She has been trained for that. She easily escaped outside the Palace without being seen by any guards. She traveled very much and reached near the priest house by morning. In the morning, the Queen came to know that the Princess had left the Palace and ordered every guard to search her, find her and bring her back to me. 

        This has to be done very secretly because it's their prestige matter. Princess escaping the Palace is very bad and if the people knew about that, the fear of them will decrease and laughs at them. So it has to be done secretly. They start to sieve the kingdom and some group of people are going to Cedric's house as they were sure that she went to see him. On this side, the Princess mixed with the normal people and moved with them. 

        It's market day for the kingdom, the streets are full of people. The busy day with selling and purchasing. She mixed with them and searched for Cedric. At last he is there for buying the needs. She slowly took a fruit from an adjacent stall without knowing and threw it to hit Cedric. The fruit hit Cedric in the back. She hid back. He looked back and thought that someone's fruit fell on him accidentally and resumed his work. 

        After a while she took another fruit and hit him. He turned back and doubted that someone was hitting him. He doesn't know who it is. He doesn't know that the Princess has left the Palace. So he thought some naughty child was doing it and wanted to leave the place as soon as his work finished. But the hitting resumes. After a while he got irritated and observed. He found that fruits are falling on him from the same direction and started to observe keenly towards that direction. After a while he found out that some person was hiding at the back of the stall. 

        So he went back slowly without making a sudden move. She took another fruit and turned to hit him. But he is not there. She started to search for him. But he stood on her back. She sensed that someone was at her back and thought of them as one of her guards and turned back very swiftly. In front of her, Cedric is standing very firmly. As she is in disguise, he doesn't know that she is Princess. He caught her hand very firmly and asked her why are you disturbing me while I'm at my work. She tried first to leave him. But after a while she withdrawn herself to him.

         She is acting according to his wish. She is feeling his firm grip on her hand. Soon he understood that something was wrong. She closed her eyes and smiled very happily. He is definitely sensing something wrong. So he slowly and hesitating touched her face to clean her face from dust. The face is very soft like cotton and some royalty and grandere is appearing on her face. Slowly he is cleaning her face. For every wipe. His senses are telling him that she is princess and the grip on her hand is loosening.

         After a while, it's confirmed that she is the princess and left the hand abruptly and started to fear for her and apologized to her for his behavior. She is still under the happiness of his grip. She praised him for his firm grip. He felt shy and afraid at the same time. Soon she realized that no one was there in her surroundings and felt like kissing him. 

        While he is still apologizing for his behavior. She abruptly started kissing him. But this time it's different because back then Cedric was stunned but now Cedric also had feelings for her slightly. So he also started kissing her. Soon they felt that they were meant for each other. Soon she saw that guards were approaching them.

         They were still under the search for the princess. Her face  is clean. So it's easy for the guards to point her. She has to escape from the place. So he abruptly stopped kissing and was full of tension. She has to escape from the place….
