Fryan knight of the kingdom of the Elves waited outside the princessâ?? door. Finally after month of being cooped in the castle they were being allowed out. He was the one of the princessâ?? personal protectors and as her bodyguard he was to be with her as often as he could. The only other person that was with her more then Fryan was her other body guard.

Alceia was inside the room with the princess helping her get ready. Being the female of the pair of knights dedicated to the princessâ?? protection Alceia would often fill in as her lady in waiting. It didnâ??t bother her as she had proven herself to be one of the best knights in all of the kingdom to be given this assignment so she didnâ??t worry that the other knights would think less of her, besides if they did then she would just teach them a lesson. Having gone through the training and putting up with all the taunts and even a few situations of abuse from the other knights, she had just pressed on taking care of things and soon all those things stopped when she proved that she could beat anyone of them to a pulp. Going through all that had left her a bit up set at men in general and much more interested in woman. There was only one male that she respected and that was Fryan her partner in guarding the princess.
 
Celestria stood near the mirror with her arms extended out beside her, a look of pure annoyance on her face, she was happy that she was finally able to leave the castle, although she called it a prison, she loved her two guards, she had to she was always with them. She watched Alceia lace up the back of her dress tightly seeing the small smile playing on her lips. Celest moved her arms a bit grabbing the top layer of her dress and slipped it over her head the long flowing sleeves falling to the middle of the bottom of the dress, she smiled a bit and grabbed her flower hair pin and put it up into the long flowing black hair that was now in large curls , she let one pointed ear show which had a few silver cuffs clamped in different places, she let her green eyes looked back at Alceia and smiled warmly before slipping her flats on her small feet then walked with her female guard to the door to meet her other guard Fryan, she loved him just like she loved Alceia, and she sometimes showed it by kissing them every now and then but it would be just a faint brush of the lips.
 
Alceia smiled as she helped the princess get ready knowing just how she liked to look. After they were done and on their way out Alceia brushed her bright red hair back so that her pointed ears showed on each side. Her ears were unadorned but she preferred it that way she had seem too many fellow soilders have them ripped out mid-battle and she had no desire to have that happen. She enjoyed the closeness that the three of them enjoyed and at times she would wish that it could be more but that would never happen.

Fryan bowed as the princess came out, then he moved to his place to one side and slightly behind the princess directly across from Alceia. He looked at the two woman that meant the most to him in the entire world wishing that there could be more between them but knowing that with the princess it would never happenâ?¦and Alceia had made it clear what she thought about men. He stepped a little faster leaning down speaking just loud enough that the princess and Alceia could hear him, â??I have the horses at the north gate saddled and ready for us my ladies. All the preparations are seen to and finished.â?
 
Celestria Tilted her head back a bit to listen to Fryan and smiled and bit nodding slightly as she walked with the two people she trusted most in the world, she moved her hand over to lace with Alceia's as they moved through the halls towards the entrance letting her smile stay on her face, she brushed back her long black hair and squinted her green eyes to the sunlight coming in from the windows, her smiled grew seeing her pet at the end of the stair case, it was a creature her father had given her a few years back, a purple minx with white accents and large golden eyes and long fur that was soft to the touch, she extended her arm out and let him sit on her shoulder," it seems like its a perfect day today, i really hope nothing goes wrong" she smiled a bit and continued to walk with them.
 
Alceia smiled and willingly held the princessâ?? hand moving up beside her so that it was easier to walk that way. She stroked the lynxâ??s head lightly and shrugged, â??Even if something does happen my lady there is nothing that Fryan and I between us couldnâ??t handle.â? She looked over at Fryan for a second and continued, â??Isnâ??t that right?â?

Fryan smirked laughing, â??thatâ??s right Alceia my dear nothing can happen while we are on guard.â? In truth he really believed that not seeing the reason for the king having ordered the three of them to remain inside the castle grounds for the last few weeks just because they got some intelligence saying that a rival kingdom wished to kill the princess. They arrived at the northern door which three guards swung open for them and before the door down a flight of steps were their three personal horses waiting saddled for them.
 
She had a sort of concered look on her face but she tried to hide it by ticking her minx, Celest was never informed about things that were going on in the kingdom, all she knew was that these two whom she has grown close to has to protect her, which she didn't mind, tho when they argued it was funny to watch cause Alceia kicked his ass a few time, she yawned slightly and moved to her horse and pulled herself up gracefully and grabbed the reins easily in her slim hands while her minx jumped down on the hind quarters and layed down easily.
 
Alceia pulled herself up onto the back of her chestnut mare stroking the horseâ??s neck softly in greeting after a long absence. Her eyes followed the fluid movements of the princess as she mounted loving the way her body moved. Blushing Alceia looked down feeling ashamed of having such thoughts about the princess because there was no way that they could ever come to pass.

Fryanâ??s midnight black stallion was in the front of the three by order of the king because he never wanted his daughter to be going first. His stallion and Alceiaâ??s mare had become a pair a long time back when they had first become the princessâ?? bodyguards. The two horses might just have been acting on the tension between their masters since both of them would look at each other often when they couldnâ??t be seen and hidden desire flash across their eyes. So the horses mated and became what their masters seemed unable to do. Looking back over his shoulder he saw that they were all ready and motioned them forward starting off toward the beach.
 
She stared at Fryan's back for a while then looked over to alceia, she never thought a sexual relationship would arise with her but she sometimes was worried about Fryan, she laughed seeing Alceias mare bite at the stallion's hind quarters, she loved her white mare with her large blue eyes and black mane and tail she somewhat matched besides the eyes, she sat straight and moved with her horse easily as they moved, she then had an idea and smiled mischeviously moving her horse to the side a bit and whispered in her ear gently, all of the sudden her and her horse took off like the wind itself, Celestrias garments flying around her as well as her hair flapping gracfully behind her, she made her way into the open field of the sourounding forest and laughed feeling the wind in her hair and on her face. She knew she was being reckless but she didn't think anything could happen to her.
 
Being the one behind the princess Alceia was able to see what was happening a split second before she took off. With a quick squeeze with her knees her horse was also off in a flash right after Celestrias. There was a element of sport and play to it that she was getting into and she turned back to Fryan playfully sticking her tongue out at him.

Fryan growled shaking his head at the two girls knowing that they were both goading him into giving chase. So he did just that. His horse was the tallest of the three and by far the longest stride of any of the horses in the stable. With a simple click of his tongue his stallion was off like a light rushing after the girls but not closing on them too fast wanting to give them a feeling that they could get away while also allowing him to see anything dangerous coming after the princess.
 
Celest grinned and looked back at them making her way far into the field her hair whipping around her face, she gasped softly seeing an arrow wiz past her face, she pulled on the reins her horses hooves digging into the ground stopping a bit before the forest edge, she pulled back a bit more making her horse go backwards, she then turned and made her way back towards her advanceing guards, she had somewhat of a scared look on her face but she was fine enough, she ducked dodging another few arrows with ease, but felt a slight pain in her leg, she looked down seeing an arrow sticking out of her thigh, she bit her lip and raced back to the castle as fast as her horse could take her.
 
Fryan saw the first arrow and suddenly he wasnâ??t playing around and his horse took off like a streak of black. His sword was out and a few arrows came streaking at them and they were nothing to deflect his elven reflexes having no problem with them. He didnâ??t need to call out and coordinate with Alceia they were so in sync that they could work in tandem without talking about it. He placed himself between the attackers and the princess blocking and guarding her from any rushes.

Alceia slipped off her horse and in the same instant onto the princessâ??s behind her. she reached down touching the arrow wound checking to be sure it wasnâ??t too serious. Seeing that it wasnâ??t she reached forward grabbing the reins from the princess and was about to start off to the castle when she saw the group of men moving across the path ahead of them. â??Fryan we need to get to the second safe point before the surround us totally.â? That was all she needed to say the two of them were off Fryan taking the rear guard as the rushed for the safe house buried deep in the forest.
 
She breathed softly taking the reins from alciea once more, her leg did hurt a bit but she was strong enough to ride her own horse, she looked back at alciea and saw fryan behind them along with alciea's horse, she sped up heading to the safe house the barrier around it activating once she passed through the two magical points that shielded the house from others, she slowed down after a while and breathed softly moving her horse to the little stable and sliding off bouncing on one foot a bit and looking around to fryan seeing him come up on the other side of her. "im sorry i was so reckless, i should of known better."
 
Fryan was the last one inside the shield and it was instantly a camouflage field hiding the little house from anyone elseâ??s sight and without a certain amulet that was only found inside the house, no one could get in without it. He slipped off his horse taking the reins of Alceiaâ??s he moved over to the princess the horses continuing on to the stable as Alceia slipped of the princessâ?? horse. â??It is ok your majesty we all make mistakes fortunately there was little harm done.â? His hand brushed her cheek as he smiled at her slipping his arm around her waist and putting hers over his shoulder.

Alceia moved to the house checking the magic ward that allows the magic field to continue running for almost eternity. It was still fine and running well. She moved a chair over to the couch as Fryan helped the princess inside the house. She sat down as Fryan gently placed the princess laying on the couch her injured leg to the outside so that Alceia could tend it. He then left to go see about the horses and also because Alceia was about to tend the wound. As the door close Alceia slipped her hands down to the hem of the princessâ??s skirts and slowly lifted them around the arrow so as not to hurt her more. Pushing aside the small spark of excitement as her had touched the princessâ??s upper thigh she began to work on removing the arrow hoping it would be simple.


((let me know if I'm posting too much))
 
She sighed softly as she was hoisted up a bit, she didn't mind being carried a bit, she acctully loved it but she was also indepentent in some ways, she watched him leave and then looked to Alceia and smiled watching her touch the arrow on her leg, she winced slightly and sat up a bit liiking down at it seeing as the blade of the arrow was completly inside her leg but it wasn't bleeding " it feels like its a jagged arrow Alceia, it doesn't hurt that bad " she sighed softly and watched her admiringly then looked away when she looked back at her, she tilted her head back seeing the door open and fryan come in with a tub of water and come clean cloth for the wound when the arrow was out of her slender leg, she smiled at Fryan not careing if her legs were exposed.

((no your not i love how much your posting gives me alot to work with..just wish you were on a bit more))
 
Fryan had gone out and tended the horses removing their saddles and bridles putting them on the storage rack. Providing the horses with food and water he then drew some water that he took inside being careful not to look at her exposed thigh. He smiled back to her nodding seeing that she wasnâ??t embarrassed about her exposed leg but he was and the blush covering his cheeks as he put the water on to boil trying not to look at the beautiful smooth skin.

Alceia looked back over at Fryan nodding to the stove then starting to work on the arrow shaft. Bracing it with one had she snapped the shaft tossing it to the side. She pulled a knife from her boot and holding it in the fire for a moment she spread the flesh of the princessâ??s thigh a little, â??This will hurt my lady but it needs to come out.â? She took two deep breaths and then after Fryan had taken the princessâ??s hands she made two quick cuts to each side of the arrow and was then able to easily slip the arrow head out. Alceia took the water that Fryan had boiled and poured some onto the wound cleaning it and helping the blood stop, quickly bandaging it she reached up for the skirts and her hand accidently brushed against the princessâ?? panties. She froze for a moment then began to pull her skirts down hoping it went unnoticed.
 
She bit her lip and nodded at the two of them, she held onto Fryans hands and bit her lip a bit, she looked away when she was about to take the arrow out and hissed painfully when she cut at her skin, her hand tightened around fryans as she squeezed her eyes shut as to not watch the blood come out of her exposed leg, when it was all over she looked at it and caught the blush and hesitation in Alceia's eyes, she smiled slightly and breathed a bit before sitting up " thank you....both of you....your too nice to me" she smiled and blushed slightly and leaned foreward kissing Alceia's Cheek then leaning back to Kiss fryan's cheek before she got up and went to the window holding her leg up a bit to not apply pressure on it.
 
Alceia blushed more as her cheek was kissed barely stopping a growl from coming. She started to clean up wiping the couch down cleaning the blood from her hands. She watched the princess knowing that something wasnâ??t right. After everything was clean she picked up the arrow head which had been dropped on the floor and cleaning the blood off of it she checked it under the light, no sheen to it. Breathing a sigh of relief she threw it away knowing that there was no poison of the arrow that had struck the princess. Moving up behind her she placed her hands on the princessâ??s shoulders gently. â??You knowâ?¦We all make mistakes my lady there is no reason to get all worried about it and it is our job to see your safe and happy.â?

Fryan had moved back outside blushing even worse from that kiss on his cheek. His eyes scanned the woods through the field knowing that their attackers would have to still be around and yetâ?¦nothing not a single move among the trees something wasnâ??t right but he couldnâ??t place his finger on what it was.
 
She sighed softly and placed a hand on Alceia's hand and gazed out the window " its very odd Alceia you would think they would come after us, but i havn't felt a single person besides us try and enter the barrier, i fear that maybe something might happen" she closed her eyes and sighed softly rubbing her forehead and pushing her hair back slightly showing her adorned ears again " i hope father will be fine" she smiled and looked back at Alceia and then back at fryan, she opened the window and letting in the breeze she heard running horses in the distance but they soon faded away.
 
Alceia pressed her forehead to the back of Celestriaâ??s head sighing knowing what she meant but it was her job to calm the princess down. She took a chance and wrapped her arms around the younger girls waist smiling and just hugging her a little meaning to make it seem like a friendly hug though it came off a bit more intimate. â??Donâ??t worry Iâ??m sure that we just gave them the slip so fast that they never knew where we went.â? She didnâ??t sound as convinced as she was trying for.

Fryan turned looking back in the window sighing then moving toward the stable. â??I need to check this out and see what is going on. Something is massively wrong.â? That comment made Alceiaâ??s head fall to Celestâ??s shoulder in exasperation seeing he had just undone everything she had tried to do. He re-saddled his stallion and turned him back the way they had come. â??I wonâ??t be long.â? Alceia tossed him a amulet and he took off through the magic field heading back toward the castle.
 
Her smiled faded as she watched him ride away, she bit her lip slightly and turned her head to look at alceia "im sure everything is fine.. my mother and father can take care of themselves im sure of it" she turned and placed her hands on her beloved friends shoulders and smiled calmly, before she moved past her and limped to the kitchen finding some fruit and veggies.
 
Alceia sighed looking after Fryan knowing that something was wrong. She turned to help Celest in the kitchen preparing the evening meal not knowing what to say. So she worked in silence unless the princess broke the silence first.

Fryan rode toward the castle stopping about a mile away and just below the crest of the last hill. His nose already told him what to expect. The acrid smell of something on fire had reached him awhile back but still he had pressed on. His breath caught as he saw the state the castle was in; flames burst from nearly all the roofs, and he could hear the screams of the people even from this far away. He wanted to find out who had done this and how but now that wasnâ??t important all that mattered now was that the princess lived. He turned and rode back quickly but not before being spotted. A group of archers fired at him taking his by surprise and one arrow sunk into his shoulder as he raced off quickly disappearing into the forest and arriving back at the house before too long.
 
She continued to prepare the dinner in silence keeping her thoughts to herself, she then heard Frayns horse ride up, she then caught the scent of blood, she looked at Alciea and limped outside standing in the doorway and watching him seeing the arrow " Alciea he is hurt" she said worriedly and moved outside as best she could and walked over to him holding his horse " Fryan what happened...what did you see?"
 
Fryan slipped off his horse wincing at the pain in his shoulder. He knew that he needed to get it taken care of and almost instantly Alceia was next to him and slipping his arm around her shoulders. As they walked to the house together he stopped them next to the princess and bowed, â??Celest Iâ??m sorryâ?¦the castle is burning.â? It was all he needed to say.

Alceia gasped pulling away from him a bit looking at his face seeing nothing there but the truth. It couldnâ??t be the kingdom was too strong to fallâ?¦the castle couldnâ??t be burning. Even as she was thinking that the cloud of smoke was starting to raise into view over the hill confirming what he had said.
 
Celest gazed at him and just stood there turning her gaze to the smoke rising above the hills, she started to tear up and began running towards where the castle was she didn't know what she was thinking, the only thing running through her mind was to get to her parents and save them if all possible, she then stumbled on her bad leg and gripped the grassy area around her, she just cried softly not knowing what to do.
 
Fryan nodded to the princess letting Alceia go to her as he turned back into the house sitting on the sofa glad that the bleeding had stopped from his arrow wound. He sat on the sofa letting the arrow hang off the back and not pressing against the back and sinking into his shoulder more. He waited willingly knowing that the princess needed time to come to grips with what she had just been told.

Alceia went over to Celest and gently wrapped her arms around the younger girl gently stroking her hair and back. â??Shhh Iâ??m sure that your families protectors were able to get them out before it got too bad.â? She gently leaned in and kissed her neck just below her ear whispering. â??Now we have to keep you safe majesty there is a place that we agreed to meet in one year with all the protectors should anything happen we will see then but we have to stay alive until then.â?
