Here's your update!!

I thought I was going to die, I never felt this cold since I was born, my body has gone numb, I can't feel my toes or fingers, suddenly the door opened and came in 'The Prince'.

" Shit" he mummered

He dragged a chair beside the bed and sat there holding my hand, his palms were so warm, he held my palms tightly without saying anything.

" How are you not cold?" I somehow asked

" It's because you're human, you're not adapted to our habitat" he said with a blank face

I gave him a questioning look, but he just sighed and removed his shoes and laid beside me covering both of us with blankets, I can't even move because of the magic

" What are you doing?" I asked alarmed by his actions as he shifted closer to me

" You wanna die of the cold?" He asked with a bored expression

I shook my head, " then just let me lay here, my body will give you enough heat to keep you warm" he said

" Like werewolves?" I asked narrowing my eyes at him

" What? No those are just tales" he chukled

" We live here, so our body is used to this temperature, that's why my body temperature is higher than yours right now" he explained before I can ask any questions, " and now I would like to sleep"  he declared and closed his eyes and switched off the lights with a click of his fingers.

" I don't even know his name" I mumbled

" Kartik Montero" he whispered

........

The sunlight coming from the huge windows in my room disturbed my sleep, I groaned, I can't even stretch my body. I opened my eyes finally and nearly fainted when I saw him sitting in all glory, on the chair that he kept beside the bed last time.

" Ready to have fun today?" He smirked

He was saying it on purpose, he knew I can't even move an inch unless he lifts the magic

" Whatever" I shrugged him off

" You're acting like as if I'm dying to marry you" he said with a playful tone

What has gotten into him today?

" You're not?" I mocked him

" Nope, it's just because of the war, we need the human bond to win it" he said relaxing in the chair

" I just can't throw away my whole life, so that you can win that useless war of yours" I said, my tone filled with anger

" You don't have to, after the war, we can break the marriage and you can go back" he said casually, but my eyes widened

" Really?" I asked

" Yes, but we can't tell anyone" he whispered near my ear

" Why?"  I asked

" It won't be good for my reputation, neither for you" he said

" Will you really let me go after the war, if I decide to marry you?" I asked

" Ofcourse he will" came a girl's voice as she entered the room.
