117 Chapter 117.

Felix chuckled out, seemingly compromising of himself for his sister. Now, he couldn't interrupt her love life. " Well then, guess it's time for us to go back. Its pretty late now. I still got father to bid bye for his trip. Don't know when he will be back to capital again, " Felix spoke his concerns for his father, seeming to get serious suddenly stripling from the cheery expression.

Border clashes are never easy to deal with it. Sometimes, many empires even go for a war for the land to claim it as there's. So Felix could guess, it won't be easy for his father to come back anytime soon if things get out of hand.

Besides, he had something to discuss with his father. Its been long since they actually talked and he wanted to talk about him making an effort towards Aeinshia. In all honesty, he missed talking to his father, so he wanted to do it, before things got hectic for both of them.

" Alright, brother. I feel sleepy. It's past my bed time today, " Aeinshia spoke, as another yawn came to convey how much tired she got by today's trip around the capital streets and all travelling. And, the worry and adrenaline rushes she had this night, was taking a toll on her now.

Lucia pouted lightly, " But sister, I didn't have enough fun yet. I want to buy more toys and explore the capital. I don't ways come out like this," Lucia spoke, a look of dissatisfaction immediately surged on her face as she spoke.

Felix took it as an advantage for his sister and immediately grabbed the opportunity, " Little devil, come here. Your sister's older brother Felix will play with you for sometime and take you out, " He spoke and secretly winked at Aeinshia, while Aeinshia replied to him with a little blush.

'Surely, my brother is best. He is even setting me up with Evan whenever it is possible. I need to treat him later.'

Aeinshia thought to create a table full of his favorite dishes later, for Felix for his good deeds of helping her. Food would do the trick. Of there is anything Felix loved after the family and work, are food and sleep. And, home cooked food is ultimate.

Lucia jumped on her place in excitement and immediately scrambled near him.

" So, I guess I could only take you back home, " Evan spoke, as if he was left with no choice, but inside happiness screamed every cell of his.

" Alright our little angel, shall I carry you? Aren't your legs in pain? " Felix asked Little Lucia, assuming she must be also tired from all the walk during the festival.

" Hahah, " Felix chuckled out at her childishness.

Felix quickly turned towards Evan and his smile disappeared, "Take care of her. I'm trusting you with her." And, then, his smile reappeared as if it was always there. He turned towards his sister, "I think I would be late, as I'll be going to Palace. Be safe, my dear little sister." And left in a hurry to chase after the small princess.

As both Felix and Lucia went their ways, there's only Aeinshia and Evan left.

Both Aeinshia and Evan didn't budge from the places. Evan sighed at Felix's odd behaviour, but then his eyes landed on her, while she felt her face turning hot from his gaze, so she simply tried to avoid his gaze.

" Come, let's go, " Evan took the initiative and lead her towards the Prince's Royal carriage.

Less than five minutes walk, they reached near the parking bay.

" Rutz mansion first, " Evan ordered the coachman, to which the coachman replied with a nod and a bow as he spoke, " Right away your highness. "

Evan first got into the carriage, following that he helped Aeinshia to get in. Both of them sat next to each other, but none of them spoke further. Lost in their inferno of thoughts.

Evan got engrossed in planning for his love proposal of Aeinshia, while Aeinshia worried about Lily coming in half way and disrupting her hard earned created happiness path. Even though, she decided to not act on impulse or go to any extremities for Evan, she still was worried about him having a sway of heart and worried she might not take this heartbreak. Atleast not after having so many high hopes given by Evan.

Yes, she was strong this time and experienced. But, she isn't in a place to control people's hearts and feelings. Despite her hard tries, feelings can be changed. And, thats what she feared the most.

She is reincarnated, but not in ultimate control. She can only do so much. The ultimate power is fate and time.

With that thoughts, she found her head became heavy and slowly sleep drifted her into her Dreamland.

" ... Shia, Aeinshia...."

She could hear someone calling her, but her eyelids felt so heavy to open and give any response. She is feeling tired from all the roaming from morning. Never once she got a nap today and she just couldn't hold her sleep anymore.

Evan saw Aeinshia slowly falling over to her other side, in counter, he immediately grabbed her shoulder, " Aeinshia....Aeinshia," He called for her. But she simply slept like a dead person and didn't respond. So he securely placed her head on his shoulders and slipped his hand into hers, linking up their arms together, his fingers fidgeting hers as he leaned her safely into him.

Aeinshia's thoughts in her dream:

" So soft. Where am I? This familiar person, the familiar hand I used to hold while sleeping, the scent of him. Am I dreaming? If it's dream, then I hope it continues forever. This is so comfortable. I feel so safe surrounded by him. I feel like continuing my sleep for some more time. I want to know whether it is true, but my eyes are not opening? Forget it, I will just sleep. "

Aeinshia thought again drifted into her deep sleep, despite forcing herself to know what's true and false.

Soon to me went by and they reached the mansion.

Following that, the coachman immediately scrambled down and opened the carriage door for them to get down of it.

The coachman was initially shocked. He held his head low after opening the door, but that doesn't mean he didn't witness anything. The old man knew this pair of Prince and princess are going to get married, but that doesn't mean he was comfortable. Nobody are comfortable seeing a couple being intimate.

Nonetheless, he didn't speak anything and silently stood at the side of the door, waiting for the prince and princess to get down of the carriage.

Knowing the Royal carriage halted at the mansion, the butler of Rutz household immediately rushed out to greet the prince. Hiding his last minute rush, he spoke, " Gree.... " His words left in air, as he got a signal Evan to not speak.

So instead, the butler bowed in a perfect 90 degree and greeted the Royal prince, to which Evan nodded his head in acknowledgment.

Evan did wait for some time, thinking she might wake up on her own accord, but after sometime, he resigned that idea of his.

Sensing prince's movements, the butler urgently spoke, " I shall get some maids to help the princess, your Highness, " He spoke, but resumed his voice in a medium pitch, worried the lady will wake up due to disturbances.

Evan spoke nothing, instead princess carried Aeinshia to her room, following them, the butler guided Evan to Aeinshia's room.

Soon, along with prince and princess, the butler reached Aeinshia's room and opened her room.

" I will ask for a maid to take care of her highness, your Highness, " The butler spoke, however, he didn't step a foot inside the room, clearly knowing his boundaries.

"There would be no necessity for it. I will tuck her in bed, " Saying that Evan slowly put her on her bed, while the butler left them alone, closing the door.

Evan carefully and slowly put her on bed. He was about to pull the blanket over her, but before that, his hand was grabbed by Aeinshia. That's when he noticed, from getting inside the carriage and till he let her on her bed, she never once leave his hand.

A small smile danced on his lips, finding her cute and adorable. His heart was beating with an intention to win a marathon race.

" You sure don't have your guard up in my presence right? " He spoke.
