The Princess That He Loves
When the banquet was over, Darryl withdrew to his room and so was everyone else. The day after tomorrow, he will be travelling to the central village with the Chieftain to arrange the wedding ceremony and he hoped that he would see Xhemin again and eventually make her his wife. The road back to her wasn't full of rainbows and boners, it was one heck of a ride and yet he was wishing destination was worth of the sweat. This time, he will not let her go.
Darryl was having hard time sleeping as everything overwhelmed him. For the last two years, all he ever wanted was enter the beautiful Manggan Island and yet here was, the only thing lacking was Xhemin on his arms.
As Darryl's thoughts was full of Xhemin, a small knock on the door pulled him back to his already dark room. He wondered who could be seeking him at this time of the night, yet he pulled his exhausted self-up toward the door.
