I am being taken away by these "soldiers." Rattling in the bag that they have put over me, I can barely breathe. The burlap sack is getting tighter as they clench my arm together.
"Let me out of here or you shall feel the wrath of my army!!"

"Your army? Your army is minuscule compared to mine," a man with a dark, thick voice says.

"You WILL let me go! You will go to prison for being a traitor to our country! And the king! Me!!"

He just chuckles and says, "Listen, my king, I am the ruler here. You shouldn't worry about anything. Your life will come to an end soon enough. As long as I get what I want."

"What do you want? If you want money or jewels, you can have it. But you can't have what's most important to me. You can't."

"Ohhhh....I already have what you want. I have it with me right now."

"Well if you're smart enough you would know that it is not an 'it' it is a her."

"You mean Azalea?" And then it all want black.....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Azalea's POV

I woke up in the soft, warm cot. Much different than what I'm used to. Much more..........homey. Grace and Sarah are still sleeping, but I know I will not be able to go back to sleep. I get out of the cot, hitting the cold, hard floor. I walk into the kitchen seeing a silhouette in the dark.
"Hello?"

"Oh, hey Azalea."

"Something's wrong. What is it?"

"Nothing! I'm just tired....." Yea. Like I'm gonna believe that.

"What is it Rowan, dear?" I say batting my eyelashes. Hopefully this will get him to spill. I can't have my best friend, or maybe something more, be in a bad mood. It is my job to cheer him up.

"What's with the acting? I mean, if it even is acting."

"Why you little!" I say as I jump onto him, taking him done to the floor. He struggles against my weight for a moment, but before I know it, he has pinned me down to the floor. I try to flick him off of me, but it is no use. He is just too strong. Well, there is one way I could get out of this, but only a coward would do so. Well then, I'm a coward. "Ouch! Rowan this hurts!" Rowan immediately gets off of me and does a once over.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! What did I do?!? I'm sorry Azal-" he begins to say as I pin him to the ground once again.

"Hey! You cheated!"

"No I didn't, I just simply used my girl power for good use."

"Well I guess that I'll have to fix that!" He pins me down once again, and I am beginning to look into those light blue, eyes.....With beautiful golden specks in them.....and those-those......I snap myself out of it. Why was I thinking those things? I mean I know that he is attractive, but still! A lady's head must not be filled with these things! Rowan lets me go, and we both look up to three questioning faces. Oops?

"What were you two doing?" Grace asks simply.

"WHAT WERE YOU TWO DOING?!?" Rowan's mother asks.

"What were you two doing?!?" Sarah asks. WOW. Nosy much? I won't be answering this question, so I nudge towards Rowan to tell them. He just simply nudges me back.

I sigh, "Well Rowan wanted to make sure that if Lady Guinevere comes, I will be prepared to fight. She has threatened me too many times before, and Rowan was just showing me some self-defense techniques. Right Rowan?"

"Aye! Tis true! Mum, would I ever lie to you?"

She sighs, "You have before. But I believe you. If you say that you were teaching her self-defense, than I'm all for it. Just tell me what's going on in your life. I won't bite," we all laugh at that. She seems to have bought it, but you can tell that Grace and Sarah don't believe a single word. But gladly, they don't mention a thing out loud.

Prince Peter's POV

I wake up, tied to a wooden pole. My are are stretched behind me, and my feet are tied together. As I try to get free, the ropes tighten and I feel them piercing my skin. "Let me go you bastard!"

"Now, why would I do that?"

"You will pay for this!!"

"No, I shall not. I already have what you want......" And now it comes back to me. He has Azalea.

"Let her go! She has nothing to do with me!"

"Oh on the contrary! She does. Very much," he states, looking at me in the eyes. "You do realize that this will be the last time that you see her? You will be dead before you can even say goodbye."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Azalea's POV

As I am walking home, I hear the March of the soldiers. As I move to the far left side of the gravel road, they throw a bag over my head and I am being taking with them.

"Arg! Let me go!" I hear a girl give a dark chuckle.

"Ha! You think that you will get away?! From me?! Ha! You really are funny!!"

"I said let ME GO!" This time I am struggling and almost break free, but she whacks me with a knife. Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark! And then, everything is fuzzy.

But right before I drift off I hear the words, "Azalea!!!!!!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rowan's POV

Azalea left my house, soon after the 'self-defense practice.' My sisters were more than happy to question me about that. Oops? I didn't mean to cause anyone fret, or for anyone to ask me questions. Heavens no! Thank GOD for Azalea's plan, otherwise I don't know what I would have said. I was ready to say that we were....wrestling. But then that would have lead to so many other questions, that it would have spilled. I was about to kiss Azalea. Would she have kissed me back? Would she have been disgusted? And not to mention the fact that mum would have had a fit if she say it? I swear, even though I am a man now, she still insists on calling me her little boy. I walk back into the house looking up to all of their faces. Grace and Sarah kept their heads down. My mum looked up at me.

"Azalea got kidnapped."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Azalea's POV
"Azalea!!!" I heard the familiar voice call my name.
One hour later......
"Erik? Is that you?"

"I do not call myself Erik anymore. My new name is Wylie. And this is my sister Catherine," he says motioning to the girl who hit me.

"Hello," I spat not being able to hide my irritation.

"Well looks like you two will be best friends."

"Ha!" Catherine and me said at the same time. WOW. Enemypathy? Hey! Give me some credit for effort!

"Ugh!" Catherine says, walking away.

"What do you want from me!? I mean I'm just a maid. What could you want from me?"

"I don't want anything from you," he states simply.

"Then what do you want?"

"I would like to get revenge on my enemy. And you my friend, are the key."

"And who is this enemy of yours?"

"Peter, Prince Peter." I couldn't help it, a gasp escaped my lips. Peter? What in the hay did he do to this creep?

"Peter?..........where is HE?!"

He just chuckles, "You think that I'm going to tell you? Listen, I'll tell you this, I've got him wrapped around my finger." He lets that last part drag out a bit. But, how could he have Peter wrapped around his finger? Who is this key? Me? Wait! Wait! Wait! ME?!? What did I do? Wait.......... Does that mean.........mean............that he likes me?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prince Peter's POV
I hear the wagon come into the camp. Someone must be here. But who? Then it hits me. Azalea. 'What could they want from her?' I try to ask my self, but already knowing the answer. Me. That's who they are trying to get. Me. I curse myself for putting Azalea in danger! Shit!! If I never have met her, then none of this would be happening! But then, I would never be able to love her. Well, looks like that is never going to happen. We are both kidnapped. For what? I don't know. But I do know that I didn't do anything to offend this guy. Right? It must have been so long ago, that I can't remember it. Too bad. For me! If I don't apologize to him, who KNOWS what could happen? To me? Or worse, to Azalea?!? I can't let anything happen to her! But first I need to get out of here!the ropes that bound my hand, were still piercing my skin, but I don't care. I notice a notch in the wooden pole. If I could only get the rope to go on that notch, pull with excruciating pain and I'll be free. I struggle to move myself downward on the wooden pole. I just miss the notch, but I am NOT giving up. I make one more move towards the notch and I make it! One step closer to Azalea!! Okay Peter.....ready? One.....two........THREE!!! I pulls way from the pole, and just break the rope. I finish taking the rope off, and I notice my blood stained hands, but I quickly move along. I walk out of my tent slowly making sure that no one notices me. Thank God that Wylie is arrogant enough to leave me unguarded. I can't see anyone but I can hear voices.
"Peter?............ Where is HE?!" A familiar voice demands.

Wylie chuckles, "You think that I'm going to tell you? Listen, I'll tell you this, I've got him wrapped around my finger." Why in the WORLD would he think that he has me wrapped around HIS finger? (No Lindsey not THAT finger!) Oh! Right! He has AZALEA!! And boy I'd he gonna pay!! I stumble back, not believing what I am seeing. Azalea tied up, ( To a pole), and.....and.......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Azalea's POV

"Why you little!"

"Why am I handsome?" Wylie answers back.

"No, why are you such an idiot!?"

"I was born this way."

"Arg!! You know that you are King Annoying, right? Here is your crown. I would bow, but SOMEONE tied me up."

"Well your cranky......." I notice movement in the shadows. My eyes flit (FLIT) to its direction, but something pulls me away from it. "What are you looking for......dear? You poor, little Prince? By now he must have gone mad, knowing that you are here," as he says that his hands are trailing my cheek. I instantly flinch, but he hand stays there. I would move father away, but the pole is keeping me from it. You can truly tell that I am trying my best to resist, but I can only move away so much. "Stop resisting Azalea. You know you want it...."

"No. I don't," I say through gritted teeth. Just as I finish saying that his lips are pressed against mine. He is disgusting! My eyes wide open, trying to throw him off of me. Then I see it. The shadow in the distance, is no shadow anymore.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prince Peter POV
He's kissing her! How dare he!!! I can't believe it! And she's tired up too!!! She can't resist even if she wanted to! I HAVE to save her!! Until I notice something else. She's not resisting anymore.........she's kissing him back......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Azalea's POV
At first it was NOT enjoyable....but then I thought of all the cute moments we used to have.......and-and-well I kissed him. It was all of the moments, memories, and happy things of my childhood wrapped up in one. It was sweet, tender and sensitive. Nothing like what I imagined. It was wonderful.......
