Chapter 50: You need not to leave my life
"Why can’t I see anyone around? Is the market usually empty?" Alora asked as she tilted her head slightly.
"I ordered everyone to empty the market for a while," Magnus stated. "I would not take any responsibility if someone looks at you and gets burned." By now, the horse had stopped.
"But, His Highness cannot stop people from doing the business. They need to earn and many people do what to buy goods," Alora asserted.
"Why should I care about that?" Magnus chuckled and hopped down the horse. He lifted his head to peer at her. "All I care is about you. For you, I can even change the flow of the water," he pronounced while smiling.
Alora’s eyes brimmed with tears and she quickly averted her gaze from him. "Prince Magnus should not flatter me with such words," she murmured.
"Ahh!" A low scream escaped her mouth as Magnus suddenly pulled her down, his hands securely holding her waist.
"I think we should walk from here," Magnus said. "We have an entire day to explore the places in the capital," he stated.
"I would be happy if the market was filled with people," Alora said. "His Highness should not have ordered for closing the market. People make a living by selling goods daily. I don’t wish anyone to sleep empty stomach," she explained.
"The market is closed for only one hour," Magnus revealed to her. "Also, there lies a water canal which takes you to the largest lake of our Kingdom with boats, in the center of the market. If people were present around you, only you would not be able to enjoy your time with me," he proclaimed.
