Fake Princess
CCCXXXII Chapter
"Kou," I said again walking over to him, I leaned my body against his.
"Are you okay? I mean, about you making those mermaids slaves. Do you think it's gonna be okay?" My head rests on its wings as my eyes look at the men who seem busy breaking the ice surrounding the ship.
"That's the only way to save them, I can hide their whereabouts... I mean, their leader..."
"The old man?" I asked to cut his words.
"True, the magic he cast was enormous. If an Emperor-owned Dragon flew around here, he could easily find them."
"But can't you feel the slightest bit of magic?"
"Have you forgotten My Lord? We couldn't talk to each other a few days ago, around this place is like banning magic from the outside to enter it."
"I understand, then... Why didn't you do it before? I mean, I'm so surprised you guys have such enormous power," I said, holding my arms up to cover my eyes.
"Because I don't want you to hate me. If I do, then how is it different from the Dragon of the Emperor? After all, loyalty will come if they themselves want to do it without coercion. I, just a little bit annoyed with the fish, because they can't appreciate you," he said, pointing his big head up my thigh.
"You did it for me? Thank you," I said moving my hand that had covered my two eyes before it rubbed its cheeks.

My sleep was disturbed as I felt something touch my shoulders, I slowly opened my eyes to the blurred shadow that was in front of me...
"Zekis?" I said my words as my eyes closed several times and then opened again.
"Did I wake you?" He said, I felt something grabbing my hair.
"I'm so tired" I said back very slowly, I closed my eyes slowly.
"It's cold" he said, I opened my eyes slightly, glancing at him who had been sitting leaning on Kou's body just like me.
"My back," he said again, he moved away his back that was previously attached to Kou's body while his hand also moved rubbing his back.
"What are you doing here?" I asked while still glancing at him, he moved his head turned towards me.
"Sleep with Cia and the others on board, even though the ship is still sinking to the side, but you can sleep on the wall" he said, both of his hands moved to fix the blanket he had placed on top of my body earlier.
"My body is almost immobilized, I'm too tired to go there," I said, tilting my head back against Kou's body.
"Is that a request? You want me to take you there?" He said, he lifted his hand grabbed my hair and then tucked it back in my ear.
"no need. Come closer," I said, grabbing his arm, Zeki moved his body as he sat closer to me.
"I really like this back of yours" I said slowly, leaning my head against his back.
"Zeki," I said again, along with the sound of throats that he did.
"What's wrong? Are you asleep?" He said by moving his shoulders slightly as I was silent for a moment.
"Nothing, forget it," I closed my eyes.
"My Lord," Kou's voice suddenly sounded, I moved my head very slowly turning towards him.
"Your body is weakened because I've been here too long. I'll be right back, call me if anything happens," he said, ringing in my head, nodding back as I thrust my back away from his body.
I glanced at Kou who had risen to his feet, he walked forward a few steps before his two wings flapped firmly carrying his body flying into the night sky.
"Kou's back at his house?" Says Zeki beside me.
"The longer he's been here, the more I'm drained of strength" I said, the more I put my head on his back.
"Sitting for a long time on the ice, you know... My body felt frozen" he said, sitting with both hands moving towards me.
Zeki raised my body with both hands earlier, the cloth that covered my body seemed to dangle down as he carried me in his embrace. Slowly, Zeki walked past the ice sheet surrounding Aydin's ship.
"You know what?" He said while still stepping, I bow my head looking at him who was raising his head up.
"When I found out, you went alone to save Eneas. It really made me angry" he said, his head moving back down to look at me.
"I was angry with the crew, I was angry with my men. Thinking, you're doing everything alone makes me... What I had to do so that he could rely on me more, that's how I thought, "he said, re-raising his head looking straight ahead.
"Are you bored of me?" I said, throwing my eyes off him.
"Bored? How can I be bored, to a woman who can make many men say amazing when she is riding her Dragon in the air. Look at me," he said again, with a little hesitation I lifted my head to look at him.
"I won't lose to you. I will train my body to become stronger. So, don't glance towards the other men Takaoka Sachi."
"Have you lost confidence?"
"Do I look like that?" He threw his eyes off me.
"Come here, I want to touch your face," I said, raising both palms of my hands towards him.
"My face?" He said, his face moved so close that I could touch it.
"Remember this Zeki Bechir," I said pulling her face closer to me, as I felt her footsteps stalled as I did so.
"It's a gift for eleven years of our relationship" I said with a kiss on her forehead.
"It's a gift to wait for me for six years I disappeared," I said, moving my face to kiss her right cheek.
"It's a gift to all your efforts, you've been doing really well all this time" I said, moving back to kiss her left cheek.
"That's all?" I asked as I smiled at him.
"That's all, that's all I have to do" I replied.
"Alright, now it's my turn" he said, lifting my body up, until my face stopped right in front of his face.
"Kiss my nose" he said, getting closer to my face.
"What am I doing" I moved my palm back, pushing his chin up until his head looked up slightly.
"Just do it, I'll tell you why, later" he said again lowering his gaze to look at me.
"All right," I said grabbing her face and smelling her nose.
"That's a gift to me for all your attitude that makes my head woozy."
"What did you say?"
"Now kiss my chin" he said.
"Just do it" he continued as I moved my face away with a slight squinting at him.
"Are you guys done? How long are you guys gonna be there? Is it until the ice melts and drowns you two?!" Izumi's shout suddenly rang out, I turned my head to stare at her shadow standing on the ship with a torch in hand.
"Bring my sister here as soon as Zeki does! Or I, will tell all that I see tonight to Haruki and also my father," Izumi said again very clearly heard.
"Damn it. When, your two brothers stopped interfering with our relationship," Zeki said, followed by the sound of a tongue crack that he let out, again I felt his body walking forward carrying me.
