Chapter 86
"I think I swallowed a bug or something," Amelia wiped her mouth the moment Killian placed her on the ground. She didn’t know if flying was that wonderful if she had to wipe bugs from her face when it was done. "How do you endure this?"
"I don’t have any bugs on my face. Perhaps they found your face to be a good place to hitch a ride. Let me see," he scanned her face for the bugs. "It might have only been one. Next time, close your mouth when we are flying."
"Noted," Amelia turned around to spit out her saliva. "You need to put on your coat," she said as she fixed her own to cover her head once again. It had been blown off when they were flying.
"Are you the expert when it comes to sneaking out?"
Amelia smiled as she did consider herself an expert when it came to sneaking out. "Let’s just say there are quite a few tricks you can learn from me. When your father doesn’t like you to have any fun, you have to come up with all kinds of plans to get out of the castle walls and then not be spotted in town. Did you ever need to sneak out?"
"I am king," Killian simply replied. "Who would ever try to stop me from going where I wanted?"
"Right," Amelia muttered, slightly jealous of Killian’s freedom. "At least I won’t have to sneak out in the north. I’ll consider this the grand finale of my sneaking-out days. My mission is to not let you get caught."
"I wonder what sort of entertainment a princess can find herself in so late in the night," Killian placed his hands behind his back and began walking down to the town.
"All sorts of things. Why do you keep placing your hands behind your back each time you are around me?" Amelia questioned whilst looking behind him to see if there was anything odd about his hands for him to hide them. She found nothing out of the ordinary. "You first started it the day we met. Is it because I was scared when you offered me your hand?"
