Chapter 61 - The Princess with the Unusual Heartbeat

Volume 61

Gwen is about to set out on her journey as she goes into her carriage, shortly after the carriage had started to move away from the castle, Anastasia came running towards her. Gwen sighting her from afar immediately instructed her companions to stop the carriage, then she makes her exit. Is something wrong, 'Your Highness?'. You can't leave just like that, Gwen. Do you want to admit you lost just because you can't find a way? I told you before, I'm going to assist you to win the heart of prince Lancelot. You just have to believe in yourself. Said Anastasia confidently. Stay and attend the camp with us. I have a plan. Gwen answered. I've made up my mind already to leave for my Kingdom, Anastasia. There's no way I'm returning back to the castle. I already promised everyone I'm not going to stare up more trouble. You have to return back to the castle, 'Your Highness'. The princes will be worried about you.

Lancelot doesn't know how amazing you are. You have to prove it to him; you're going to make an amazing wife. You're going to show him how you truly feel about him with your own skills. Gwen confused. What do you mean? She whispers some words into her ears as there was a faint smile on Gwen lips. Thank you, Anastasia. Said Gwen. You shouldn't thank me just yet, Gwen. We have to see this to the end.

It's the day of camping. The horses and royal carriages are been prepared for the journey. Lex and Anastasia mount a horse together, Lucas and Diana climbs unto the same horse, while Lancelot was compelled into sitting with Gwen inside the carriage as they began their journey… After a long awkward silence, Lancelot speaks up. I've never seen you ridden on horses before? I wonder why? Gwen answered. I once fell off a horse as a kid… it was really traumatic for me climbing horses since then. I see… Said Lancelot. You do have your own difficulties as a child but, you're an adult now. You should try to let go of the past and enjoy life more often. He smiled charmingly as Gwen couldn't get her eyes off him. Gwen said truthfully. It's because you show this carefree side of you, that's why I like you, 'Your Highness'. I guess I'm just a boring woman with no sex appeal… who will find someone like me attractive? Lancelot answered. Who said you're unattractive 'My lady?' You're very beautiful and such a confident woman, Gwen. Don't look down on yourself. You're everything a man needs in a good woman. Gwen smiled. I should take that as a compliment, 'Your Highness'… Why did you decide to stay, 'My lady'. I thought you already made up your mind to leave? Gwen smiled. I just came to a resolve; it doesn't matter if I win your heart or not… I just want to have fun with my friends and cover up for those times I wasn't able to enjoy myself because I was so upset you had eyes for another woman. You know, letting go of my feelings for you, makes it hurt less. You don't have to be wary about me anymore. I only decide to stay for myself and not for you. Lancelot feels a sting in his heart as he gets confused of her words… just then, the carriage accidentally collides with a rock, as it's thrown of balance… Gwen about to fall off the carriage but Prince Lancelot held her tightly with his arms around her and tries to protect her. The carriage is now stable as Gwen quickly frees herself from his grip. Thanks, 'Your Highness' but I'm fine now. Lancelot smiling. I'm glad you're safe, 'My Lady'. Gwen nodded awkwardly.
