LAST WARNING ⚠️

She could feel the amount of anger emanating from him in humongous waves.

Her impending punishment would be harder than the last time.

She just knew it.

He began to move towards the entrance, his strides long and powerful.

She did not struggle, didn't dare to.

Somehow -though she should not yet she definitely did- she felt safe in his arms.

Her body knew his touch, could recognize it, reveling in it and she wondered why once again.

'First,' the Little Prince called.

He did not stop to answer his companion.

He kept on walking.

'First,' he called out to him yet again, unbothered at being ignored. 'Please endeavour to tamper deserved justice with loving mercy and tenderness.'

He halted then but did not turn around.

'Please be lenient with her First.'

'She keeps offending me,' was his reply.

'Don't let it cloud your judgement,' he stated. She felt him stiffen. Her captor, the beast turned then.

'Are you doubting my self control?'

'You are angry,' was all he said to him. A long pause ensued and she suspected that they were having a stare down.

'I shall not harm her Little. Besides, she belongs to me, I'm obliged to do with her as I please,' he said.

She wanted to tell him that she didn't belong to him like she always did.

She wanted to inform him that he was not obliged to do with her as he pleased.

But, she could not because it would be a lie and he would call her out on it.

'You're angry,' the Little Prince repeated.

She felt his body tense again and she knew he was angry at his companion's words.

His next words confirmed it.

'Shall I give her to you so that you can endeavour to do with her as you please, tamper deserved justice with loving mercy and tenderness?'

The sarcasm in his words was evident.

His expression was harder than steel.

'You can take her and be lenient with her Little,' he proffered.

She knew that he didn't mean it, but she would have been very happy to belong to his companion instead of him.

'I do not desire her first. But if she were mine, I would do with her what I am advising you to do,' he stated in a matter of fact way.

The words served to piss her captor even further.

'You! Do you wish to die?! How dare you?!' He roared.

'I told you brother, I do not want her. She's all yours, all yours. That is the reason you should not harm her in your fury.'

His voice was surprisingly calm.

'Maximilian!'

'I shall leave you be,' the little Prince said.

He turned before displaying his trademark lopsided smile -it meant that he had been mischievous.
