Chapter 39 - Followed

"Princess I am so sorry for causing you trouble," she said then Lilith smiled. 

"I do wish if you can be fully honest with me but I kind of understand so I won't push, you don't have to apologize, I just hope whatever it is doesn't bring harm to my love ones because if it does then you and I won't be on right terms" Lilith replied. 

"I thought you might say that I promise I will not bring harm to the people you care about also there is one other thing that is very important and you need to know, I will tell you about it very soon but only if you promise not to freak out and you will promise if you want to know what it is," Cosmo said then Lilith looked at her sparkly eyes and sighed. 

'Fine I promise, stop looking at me with those eyes" Lilith said then Cosmo laughed as Lilith laid back on her lap and she gasped as she stared at the princess who was looking at the sky. 

"Why are you staring? are you uncomfortable?" Lilith asked. 

'No I am not" she responded and the princess smiled as her eyes glowed pink. 

'Cosmo do you think I will be a good leader?" she asked. 

'Yes there are no doubts about that" she responded. 

"Hmm then do you think my father will probably stop what he's doing?" she asked and the girl frowned. 

'I... I am not sure he can your highness" she replied. 

"I figured," she said with a sigh then she closed her eyes. 

"One day you will realize that he can't change no matter how hard you try, he hates you for a reason, his heart is dark, cold" Cosmo said to herself as she stared at the princess then Lilith raised off of the girl and stood up. 

"Come on it's getting late, let's go back," Lilith said. 

"Okay" Cosmo replied then stood up and both of them left to the castle together. 

While they were walking back Cosmo held onto the princess's hand and Lilith smiled then placed her arm around the girl's shoulder and Cosmo smiled. 

'You are smiling a lot lately" Lilith said. 

'Isn't that a good thing?" Cosmo asked. 

"Yeah it is" she responded. 

"Good because you are the reason for it you know," Cosmo said and the princess laughed as the wind blew heavily and Cosmo saw someone following them then she sighed.

"What is it this time?" she asked herself as she held onto the sword beside her. 

'Your highness" she said. 

"Call me by my name Cosmo" she replied. 

'Lilith I think we should hurry back, due to the enemies your father has made I really don't think it's safe for you here" she said. 

"Relax and enjoy the little walk being in that castle makes me feel a certain suffocation" she replied and Cosmo smiled. 

"I see you want some free time, especially with your wedding coming up," Cosmo said to herself with a frown. 

'Thinking of something?" the princess asked. 

"Your wedding will be soon" she responded then the princess stopped walking and Cosmo looked at her. 

"What's wrong?" Cosmo asked. 

"I noticed ever since you heard the news of me getting married you have been a little disturbed, what's going on with you Cosmo?" she asked and the girl smiled nervously. 

"What's wrong Cosmo?" the princess asked then the girl sighed and looked up in the sky. 

"Not now," she said to herself. 

"I am just worried that you are not doing this wedding of your own free will," she said and Lilith placed her hand on the girl's head patting her. 

"Cosmo I am doing it now out of my own free will," she said and the girl gasped as her eyes trembled then she swallowed deeply. 

"You are?" she asked and the princess nodded in agreement as the girl turned away and her eyes started glowing red then she sighed and the girl tapped her on her shoulder. 

"You okay Cosmo?" she asked. 

"Yea I am fine, let's hurry back I am tired" she responded as she grabbed onto Lilith's hand and they rushed back to the castle. 

Upon arriving back Lilith noticed that someone was following them so they went into the castle and locked the door tightly then her eyes started glowing releasing an orange energy from her body that spread in the entire castle and it glowed pink after. 

"You made a protection barrier without even realizing, your powers are growing you have to learn more about it," Cosmo said. 

"The book" Lilith replied then the girl nodded in agreement as they went into the kitchen and grabbed a few things then went to their room. 

'I am tired" Lilith said as she stretched off and yawned then threw herself on the bed. 

'Lay down if you want" Lilith said as she saw Cosmo pacing. 

"Wh.. what's wrong?" Lilith asked. 

"You saw someone following us too didn't you?" she asked. 

'Yes I did" she responded. 

'Aren't you worried?" Cosmo asked. 

'No I have you" she responded with a smile and Cosmo pouted. 

"You are here all relaxed when I am afraid, great just great," Cosmo said to herself with a sigh. 

"Stop pacing please Cosmo and sit down. eat your dinner I am going to take a bath" she said as she got up and went into the bathroom and Cosmo followed her in then she jumped. 

"Relax I will be fine," she said then placed Cosmo out of the bathroom and took her bath. 

"Damn it I need to relax," she said as she saw a piece of stone was thrown but could not enter the room due to the protection barrier and Cosmo smiled. 

"I am going to relax now," she said to herself then sat down, and a little while after the princess came out in her short pink nightdress and Cosmo left staring at her as her cheeks got pink and she turned away.
