Chapter 43: Chapter 43

~SIX MONTHS LATER~

SARAFINA.

I sighed as I finished knitting the last touch on the scarf.

It has been six months. Six months since I took an arrow for the royal family...

Six months since Maximus and his allies who happened to be elders at the council were sentenced to death for murder and treason.

Six months since Kayla was found dead at her apartment, obviously killed by Maximus.

Six months since Jafar was accepted into Pecan as rightful heir of the throne, obviously he survived the knife wound.

Six months since Zella and Pooja opened a dancing school with the help of Queen Mila.

Six months since Ditya went back to Pecan after pleading for forgiveness in front of the whole council.

Most importantly its been six months since I last saw him...

Jamal.. My Jamal.

Actually he went on a royal trip to the civilized province to convince them to bring their technics into Zedora, I really can't believe it's been that long. I wonder what's keeping him there, I just hope he is okay.

I dropped the scarf into the basket and lay back on the bed.. His bed.

Did I forget to say that he had practically dragged me out of my house and told me to stay in his chambers till he is back.

I hugged the pillow tightly taking in the faint remnant of his Scent. I miss him...

"Miss me that much that you really want to kiss my pillow?" I heard his voice as the door scraped open.

"Jamal? I'm probably hallucinating again" I muttered without looking up.

"Hallucinating huh... Wait that means you've been hallucinating about me too?"

I sprang up. "You are really here!" I screamed and flung myself on his arms.

"Easy Sheba" he said steadying me, he walked towards the bed still holding me. My leg hit the bed and he pushed us both down.

"Did you really miss me Sarafina?"

"Isn't it obvious huh?"

"Well..." He shrugged. "Prove it"

"Prove it?"

"Yes prove it" he smirked and leaned in closer. "Or should I?" He said and captured my lips with his, kissing me firmly.

The tip of his tongue slipped across my sensitive lower lip, urging me to relax. To open myself to him and I did.

We moaned as he dipped inside, touching my teeth. I parted my lips inviting him in fully. A low growl escaped his throat as I curled my legs around him.

His hands traveled to my dress and he zipped it down his hands tracing my bare back.. I shivered at the tingling sensation and then he broke the kiss we were both breathing heavily.

"That's how to prove how much you missed me Sarafina"

"Well.... I thought there were other ways" I smirked letting my hand waver at his lower abdomen.

He widened his eyes as he realized what I said. "Sarafina!" He exclaimed and I leaned in close, kissing him again.

I'm happy with him...

"You know Sarafina.." I raised my eyes at Jamal, curious of what he would say.

"What?"

"You are my elixir, and you would always be.. Now and even in our next lives to come" he whispered.

I smiled.

Peharps being a Sheba isn't that bad after all. I did get my Prince charming.
