exhaled sharply and sat up on the couch, her blanket now on the floor. The man was still lying unconscious on the bed without any sign of waking. wondering why he haven wake up she walk to stand at his front.

”Mr. ? ”

Why is he not waking up? she recalled every part of his body that was not treated last night but there was none because all the injuries were covered due to vampires healing ability.

At the market, Melanie was shopping for groceries when she heard her name from behind.

”Lady Melanie, ” a voice called from behind her. she turned and saw a young teenage boy with dark locks and dark red eyes

”Fergus, good morning. ” she greets the young boy with a smile.

” I went to your home yesterday… your mother told me you
e now living alone, ” Fergus hesitated as he walk beside Melanie.

”Yes. what are you doing here? ” Melanie ask while staring at the little boy.

”Nothing. just some royal affairs that needs to be tend to, ” he said and touch his neck.

Fergus Leonard is the youngest prince from the Leonard royal family. eversince she starts being his governess, he always look up to her as a big sister.

”I hope you
e improving in your duties as a royal? ” Melanie ask while they walk along the busy road of the market.

”Eh… Maybe. I got into a fight with…, ”

”Your highness, we have to leave, ” a royal guard said.

”Why? we just came here, ”

”Your brothers order, your highness.

Fergus pouted and turn to look at Melanie who was looking ahead at the large entourage of royal guards. ”Fergus, you should go now. Ill come to the palace tomorrow, okay? ”

He blink shyly ”okay, ” he replied and wave at her before walking towards the entourage.

Fergus was a shy prince who wasn shown love to by his brothers since his parent passed away a decade ago. he became the quiet and quick angered boy and was given severe punishments if he breaks one or two rules in the palace.

Melanie smiled as she watch the back of the young prince. Going to the palace everyday to teach the youngest prince was the best thing she has ever done. Sometimes, she saves him from his punishments if he disobeys his brothers especially the second prince, Cedric. Not having the freedom to do what his fellow vampires were doing, he was always lectured to be an outstanding prince just like his brothers.

She took a carriage back home to avoid what happened last night. When she got home, she paid the driver and came out of the carriage with two baskets on her hands.

As she approach her house, she saw the door was slightly opened. she was sure the door was locked when she left the house, she got inside and head for her room. The man was gone.
