THE HEALER

Prince and Another Prince Again

RAFA

I tried to shake off my head to wake myself up from this fantasy I am in right now. I remember my mother told me that I would experience the worst and most painful love of a lifetime. If this man would suffer the love trials with, I wouldn't mind dying or meeting my demise. I will gladly accept it. Naughty thoughts were playing in my mind and I stopped when someone was running towards us.

"Lady Rafa, people from.." Luna is catching her breath while trying to construct her thoughts to deliver the message with clarity. Yeah. I told you, her mind is easily disturbed.

"Young lady, speak your mind. What is it?" getting impatient with her

"People from Moondwell mainland are coming here to our cabin, bringing trauma patients and some are wounded by fire." Luna exhales in relief.

There is only one kingdom whose power is fire and that is, immortals from Suncrest.

"OK, calm down. Open the underground accommodation under the Spell Heal tree. Let's place them there." to avoid unnecessary trouble between the opposite kingdoms, we made sure we had extra space for them. Before I could go back to the cabin, I excused myself from the man I had talked to before, and suddenly turned to ask his name. "May I know who you are,sir?" Asking him with hopes he would not mind me asking.

" Call me Daven. " he smiled a bit and went back to face the lake again.

Daven? sounds familiar. I think I heard him somewhere. Eventually, I got the germ of the idea; he is the only heir to Suncrest kingdom. No wonder he looks so expensive and heavenly. He is from a royal family. So, I suddenly feel sad because a royal family or heir cannot be with a healer. Because healers' destiny is unpredictable. No one knows when he/she dies or he/she might be used as a weapon that will cause chaos in the entire mainland. Healers should not be biased but must care about all immortals. O Gods, this is where it all became hard to stay as a healer, but nobody can change my destiny. As I arrived at the cabin, my apprentices started panicking as a fight broke out in the middle of the reception. Another tall and handsome man with long blonde hair and leaf-shaped ears tried to calm his comrade and turn a cold gaze at his opponent. Moondwell people are generally elves. They are naturally calm, but in this case, I wonder why his comrade is furious. I approached them while looking at the one holding his comrade in the arms, as if capturing a suspect. "What is this fuss all about? Remember, this is a healing cabin where people are recuperating and sleeping. Bring your trouble somewhere, boys." I intruded and gave them an emotionless look. "My apologies, Rafa, for adding trouble to your work. This comrade of mine turned out to be in rivalry with a girl and surprisingly met him here." Pointing to the other man from Suncrest mainland. "How did you know me?Hmm. May I know who you are? I asked the blonde guy while looking at his pretty face. He had an aura of a calm god who didn't care about the world and was forced to be part of the war. "My Lady, I am Luminus of Moondwell mainland. I've seen you many times without you knowing whenever you would visit our kingdom. My father always admires your healing abilities and he loved the jasmine tea you gave him last time." he speaks in an even tone while blushing a bit. "Oh, I barely remember that, but how did you know I was visiting there when my arrival was not announced? I only meet the kings and queens of kingdoms." He signaled his comrade to go and the man from Suncrest also left immediately; only leaving as two in the reception. He moved a bit towards me, enough that only the two of us could hear our conversation. "It happened when I was in my father's study room and my mother, the queen, suddenly brought you in and afterwards, my father followed you both inside. So I turned to an invisible state to avoid being seen by my father because, at that time, my father confiscated a forbidden book from me. So, I tried to steal it." He explains while his face is emotionless, as if nothing was wrong with his doing. "I got it, I don't need to know further." I replied while raising my right hand as a sign that I heard enough. "But how is that you have seen me many times?" I asked while raising my right brow. He chuckled, "Oh, we met on your journey most of the time, but I didn't dare to approach you because you didn't know me back then." He said while looking at me as if he saw me beyond my mask. "Ok, that all made sense. Is there anything I can help you with?"He stared at me as if I was not going to leave. "Sorry, I was in a hurry. You can rest at the Spell Heal Tree. I already had Luna prepared everything you need." He suddenly woke up from reality. "Yeah, sure, sure. I will just look for you if there are any lacking on our side. Thank you, Rafa." He slightly bowed and smiled while walking away. That was unexpected. I never thought that my secret meetings with the kings and queens of the kingdoms could be known to others. Never mind. I will not overthink about it. There is so much to do in the cabin now.

I tended to the patients and saw Daven talking to one of his comrades with a serious look on his face."Prince Daven, you really care so much about your comrades. Mind if I check on you if you have some wounds or bruises? I offered him a consultation and suddenly noticed myself like having a little crush on him. I was not like this before I met Daven. Or maybe because Daven is just my type? Or a cold me is eventually touched and the love in me is awoken. I am not quite sure because my ancestors said that healers only love one person in their lifetime and I sometimes confuse love with compassion. Soon after, Daven stood and walked towards me. "Where will you check me?" He said while not paying attention to me and looked around the room and his eyes checking on his comrades. While I have some playful and naughty thoughts in my head, if ever I check on his body, is there something that I will be seeing? Oh my, the thought of it made me blush and smile like silly. Too good he can't see my expression behind the mask. "Your highness, this way please." I led him to my consultation room. I put magical barriers to impede others from coming in while the consultation is going on. He looked calm and handsome, without paying attention to me and I am a bit disappointed because I cannot take off my mask and talk to him normally. I began to check on his pulse, and asked him if he was hurt somewhere. But suddenly he took off his tops and I was so surprised at his hasty action. He forgot that he was with a woman here, and turned to face me while I gulped at what I saw in front of me. In my mind back there, it was as if I had a partial idea of what he looked like, but that is beyond my imagination. He is so well-built and sculpted perfectly. He took his long remaining hair to the side. While I tried to shake my head to let go of my imagination, "My Lady, aren't you going to check if I have bruises or wounds?" he asked me seriously while I was slowly taking in the sight. "I, I am doing it now." I stuttered and almost embarrassed myself. I hate myself for being weak at this. I've seen a lot of male bodies for many years but with him, I acted weird. I shouldn't have asked him if he needed checking. But this is my job and I have to do it professionally. "So far, there are no wounds, just little bruises on your back." Finally, I can breathe normally. "I will just give soothing creams to let it heal completely. Here." He looked confused. Oh my, don't tell me I will be rubbing this on you. This is bad. Really Bad.
