The Princess Next Door

Chapter 3

Cara's P.O.V.

As I somewhat got over the shock of what Shawn had just told me, I just looked at him and couldn't speak. " I know you have a lot of questions and I will help you as much as I can about answering them. " he said as he took one of my hands and I grabbed it back and stood up. " Well one of my first questions, is who really are you?"

Shawn slumped his shoulders and took a deep breath. " I work for a special agency, and we have been trying to locate you, your aunt and uncle. We received a tip about you, since your high school graduation was announced in the newspaper. I was sent to keep an eye on you. Your parents haven't seen you in 18 years, and they have done everything possible to try and find you."

I looked at him and felt a bit betrayed but I knew he was just doing his job. I still felt attracted to him but now I knew he was watching me on purpose. " So what can you tell me about my parents?"

" Well they are the King and Queen of Germania and are wonderful rulers. They do alot of their ruling behind the scenes as they don't like alot of attention. Your true given name is Cara Elisabeth Lorraine. Your mother's name is Elisabeth Marie Lorraine and your Father is Declan Bernard Lorraine. "

" Wow" is all I could manage to say. I looked at Shawn as he just watched me. " Is there anything you want to know?" he asked me. " I don't understand why would my Aunt and Uncle take me away from my real parents?"

" To be honest, I don't even know the answer to that question. The only people who know that answer is them." Shawn said. " Well do I have any siblings?" Shawn shook his head no and replied " That is why they have been trying to find you all this time, your their only heir and desperate to have you back home."

As I sat just thinking about all this, Shawn asked if I was hungry and I shook my head yes, so he got up and went to go get us something. Would I be what they expected? Would I be able to be a princess? I had all these different questions in my mind.

Shawn came back with a fruit and cheese plate and some juice. He handed me a plate and I began to eat the different fruit quietly. Shawn looked over at me and said, " Don't worry about what type of impression you are going to make upon them. They will love you " he smiled at me. His statement made me feel a little bit better but I was still nervous.

" What will happen to you after I meet them?" I asked curiously. " Oh don't worry my dear, I'm still going to be assigned to you. I'm pretty much your bodyguard. " he laughed.

" Ha, I can take care of myself." I smirked at him. " Oh yeah, that's why you put up such a fight when I grabbed you from behind." he retorted. " No, I was still half asleep, so I have an excuse. I have a black belt in Karate, I'm sure I can handle myself." " Oh really? I would love to test that theory out." he said as he stood up in front of me and grabbed my hand and pulled me up.

" Ok, then I guess we are going to spar then?" I said as I took my fighting stance, ready for whatever he was going to do. Shawn put both his arms up and his legs were slightly apart like mine, then he jabbed at me with his left arm. I blocked with my right and bent down and did a low kick to make him lose his balance. He dodged and jumped and tried to kick me up high, but I dodged it low and punched him quickly in the stomach.

" Nice move" he said and then we backed up again. He was trying to find my weak spot as I was trying to find his. He let me attack him first this time and I went for his shoulder, I knew he was leaning towards the left off balance. So I tried to punch him in the left shoulder and he dodged as he turned around quickly grabbed my waist. He brought me to the ground quickly and I put my legs around his waist trying to roll him off me, but he was too strong. " Hmm, I think I like this position with you" he smirked at me. " I'm sure you do" I replied as I rolled him over and was on top now with my arms intertwined with his. " I take it back, he said a little out of breath. I like this position the best."

Then he quickly leaned up and kissed me. I looked taken aback, but I loved the way his lips felt against mine. I grabbed his head and brought it to mine, " I think I like this position too." I then gently teased him with my lips and he took my bottom lip and bit it. He looked up at me with a darkness in his eyes. He took my lips back to his and it became a power struggle for dominance. It was though we were so hungry for each other, we hadn't even realized it. I was still on top of him and I didn't realize as we were making out, that I was rubbing up against him. I started to notice his pants were bulging and that he had become hard during our makeout session.

It had become pretty hot and heavy as his hands roamed my body and I had put my hands in his soft hair as we french kissed. I continued to rub him as we kissed, then all of a sudden the plane took a quick dip and I fell over on the ground. We both started laughing and then the pilot came over the intercom, " We will be landing in 20 minutes. Please make sure your seatbelts are fastened."

Shawn got up and grabbed my hand to pull me up. We walked over to our seats and fastened our seatbelts and just stared at each other. We both had a knowing smile on our face and I felt more confident about meeting my parents, now more than ever with Shawn by side.
