Dark l.u.s.trous black hair framed a strong, defined face and pink soft lips were curved into a smirk.

"My my what do we have here?" His voice as smooth as his caramel skin held a mocking lilt.

When Klara didn't reply or move he arched one dark brow.

"Do you find it comfortable sitting on the floor?" He asked.

"Huh? Oh... no..." Her face burned with embarrassment as she got up and adjusted her dress.

Why was she acting like this? Irritated with herself she looked at the man in front of her. Good lord, he was enticing, a feast to the eyes. She guessed that he might be from the tropics because of his tanned skin and exotic looks.

"You seemed to be in hurry?" He spoke.

Yes right, she forgot. She was running from a snake. A snake? Klara looked behind her. Luckily the snake hadn't followed her.

"There was...a... a snake...in there," Klara said pointing.

The man chuckled. "It's harmless."

Harmless? How could a snake be harmless? She had heard how people died immediately if they got bitten by one.

"What is your name beautiful?"

Klara blinked a few times in surprise. No one has ever dared to call her beautiful even if they thought she was but of course, this man didn't know who she was otherwise he wouldn't dare.

"Klara. "

"Oh...you are the warrior princess." He said.

"You know me?"

"Not really, just heard of you and your savage brother and ...people."

Klara was fuming with anger. How dare he? He knew nothing about her brother or people.

"Don't you dare call my brother or my people savage."

"Or what?" He said looking amused.

"Or I will slit your throat." Klara threatened before she could stop herself from saying something so stupid.

"Tsk tsk...I didn't know such threats could come from that beautiful mouth of yours."

Klara was confused. Was he complimenting her? Then why did she feel as if he was mocking her?

"It's not a threat, it's a warning."

He took a step toward her and leaned closer. Klara froze in place, he was too close for her comfort. "You see, you are in no position to warn me when you just ran from a mere snake." He said.

A mere snake?

She took a step back. "Maybe I find it easier to kill you than a mere snake."

He grinned showing perfect white teeth with canines slightly longer than normal ones.

"A tough one I see. I like it." He drawled.

How unfortunate, because she didn't like him even though he looked delicious enough to eat.

Klara shook her head. Where did she get that thought from?

"Klara? here you are." Irene's voice came from the hallway.

Turning her head she found Irene and Hazel approaching them. Hazel had changed into a clean dress and her hair was still wet from the bath. She seemed to be walking just fine. Klara guessed that Irene's must have used some magic to heal her leg.

"I see you have already met." Irene smiled as she looked between Klara and the man standing next to her.

"Hazel this is Roshan, he is part of my family and this is princess Hazel." Irene introduced them to each other.
