Chapter 288 288:- Princess Lara [Iii]

Aditya stared at Lara without saying a single word. The look on his face said everything that one needed to know. Unfortunately, Princess Lara shyly lowered her head. She did not see the expression on Aditya's face.

"Husband.....?" Aditya didn't know what to say in response.

"Husband, from now on please take care of Lara." Princess Lara responded back before closing her eyes and burying her face into his chest. Aditya without realizing put his hands on Princess Lara's soft and slim waist and pulled her closer to his body to make it easier for her to keep leaning on him.

Aditya looked at Princess Lara's zombie maid for some explanation. But the maid refused to open her mouth. She instead gave him an apologetic look before telling him that she would explain everything later on with signs.

Sigh!

Aditya decided to ask the zombie maid later. For now, he had to worry about this princess. Since he had promised this zombie maid that he would look after her and protect her.

"Husband, can I know your name?" Princess Lara shyly asked while tightly holding Aditya. Aditya can see that she is red. She was blushing. She felt so ashamed that she couldn't look at Aditya. Yet whenever she called Aditya husband, her voice would be filled with endless love and tenderness.

"My name is Aditya Bainnith. It's nice to meet you, Princess Lara." Princess Lara shyly nodded her head before she curiously looked at the figures standing to her right. Princess saw a tall muscular man standing with a greatsword. The figure standing next to the man was someone whom she knew.

For a few seconds Lara couldn't recognize who this person was. But strangely she felt very familiar. After staring at her for a few seconds, Princess Lara finally recognized who this person was. How can Lara forget the person who has been taking care of her ever since she was born? "Rose, is that you?"

'So her name is Rose.' Aditya and Adam thought the same thing in their minds.

Seeing Rose, Princess Lara got out of Aditya's embrace even though it really felt comfortable in his embrace. She slowly began walking towards Rose.

Meanwhile, the expression on the zombie girl's face finally broke. Tears formed in her eyes before she run up to Her Highness. Rose has been taking care of Her Highness since she was born. Rose has been there with Princess Lara for as long as they could remember. Even when Princess Lara was put in this world, Rose volunteered to look after Her Highness.

To Princess Lara, it might seem as if not so much time has passed. But to Rose, 54 long years had passed. She spent 54 years alone in this world without any interaction. The only thing that kept her motivated to keep going is Her Highness.

Walking in front of Princess Lara, Rose kneeled on the ground. However, Princess Lara made her stand up and then she hugged Rose. Both of them hugged each other while shedding tears of joy. Especially for Princess Lara things were very difficult. She was kind of hoping to see her parents after she woke up but it seems the prophecy did happen.

After hugging Princess Lara, Rose somehow calmed herself. "Highness, there is something that you should know." Rose felt choked while saying the painful and bitter words that were going to shatter the innocent heart of her lady.

"I know it." Rose widened her eyes in deep shock. Meanwhile, Aditya and Adam had no clue what they were talking about.

"But how?" Asked Rose with a shocked face.

Princess Lara quickly the tears from her face and then replied in a sad tone. "A prophecy was revealed by the seer a week before I was put to eternal sleep."

"What prophecy?" Aditya asked with a confused look while walking toward princess Lara

"In the prophecy, it was revealed that in the future The Great Starry Sky Empire was going to be destroyed. That one day a powerful Red Dragon would come to the Icy Shattered ruin and wake me up. That power Red Dragon will be my future husband and the one who will find a cure to my illness." The shocked and surprised look on Rose's face told Aditya that this zombie maid really knew nothing. This also kind of explains why Princess Lara called him husband.

'I was the type to not believe in Seer or Soothsayer or in prophecies. But after coming to this world, I had multiple visions of the future. Each time I managed to change the future with the knowledge I had about future events. I thought I was the only one who sees can the future but now I have met or heard of two beings who have been able to see glimpses of the future. The first one is my grandfather's best friend, he is one of the Origin dragons and his name is Michael. The second one is the seer that Lara is talking about.' Aditya was starting to worry about the future. Michael warned him that beings powerful as Aditya were going to come.

"It is difficult to explain but I was able to see every single person who entered the Icy Shattered ruin. I saw my husband fighting someone close to him. I saw him fighting his own self. I saw him fighting the Maneater. I saw everything." Hearing this Aditya was once thing shocked. But he quickly understood that this must be one of the side powers of the 6-star array that was built to keep the Lara to eternal sleep.

"Royal father promised that he would do everything in his power to change that future and make sure that he and others stay alive till I wake up. But it seems Royal Father couldn't change the future. The prophecy is happening. Mother Empress forbid me to tell anyone about the prophecy as this would cause a panic." Lara looked sad when talking about her father and her family. It was not easy for her to wake up in a completely different time and era where her family, friends, relatives and even her Empire doesn't exist.

Aditya held Lara's hand and then gently smiled at her. "Since I am your fated one I will take care of you." Hearing this Princess Lara blushed slightly before lowering her head. 1,300 years ago, the societies of the Primal World were very different from now. Mother Empress has raised all of her daughters to love and respect her husband. This also includes Princess Lara. Ever since she heard that she was going to meet her husband when she woke up, she has been preparing herself to become the best wife.

Princess Lara had made up her mind to always love, respect, support, and devote herself to her future husband even if her future husband happens to be one of the ugliest men on the planet. To her, it doesn't really matter if her husband has 100 wives as long as her husband cared for her. It doesn't really matter if her husband was the evilest person on this planet or the cruelest King on the continent. She was still going to love, respect, support, and devote herself to her husband.

In her life, Princess Lara never has been touched by another man other than her father. Princess Lara has rarely interacted with men other than her brothers. When she regained consciousness amidst drinking Aditya's blood, as a Vampire, she instantly fell in love with the taste of Aditya's blood. His blood was the most delicious thing that she has ever drunk. The second thing that she fell in love with was her husband's smell. It was so addictive. The third thing that she fell in love with was her husband's face. Her husband might not be the most handsome man on the planet but in her eyes, her husband was the most handsome man.

Princess Lara loved how gentle he was with her. She loved how caring he was. She loved how her husband held her hand when she felt sad about losing her family to support her. Even though it hasn't been even 10 minutes since she met her husband and her fated one, she was already very happy.

The only part that made Princess Lara sad is the fact that she can't do anything in her power to repay her husband back. She also wanted to become the perfect wife for her husband. She wanted to cook for him. She wanted to do all the things that a wife would do for her husband. Unfortunately, her illness prevents her from doing anyone of that.
