"No one is allowed in my library, especially that human." Sebastian ordered his men as he made a security plan.
He came here not because he wanted to spend some time enjoying here but because he wanted to plan his next move. He was going to take throne from his father soon.
It's not that he hated his family or wanted to hurt them but because being the elder son, Paul have the first right on throne.
"Prince Sebastian, the villagers came to meet you." A guard entered the room and informed Sebastian. Sebastian nodded and the guard left the room.
After sometime, Sebastian entered the courtroom and the villagers greeted him. Sebastian sat on his throne and asked them teg reason why they were here.
"My prince, I am the head of the village down the mountain. We don't have many Lycans and werewolves here am dthe only people living here are the one who either can't shift or are omegas. The king approved our village so we could stay here in peace."
"I am aware of this." Sebastian added.
"But from past few months, we have lost a lot of omegas. Someone is killing the defenceless people leaving no drop of blood in their bodies. First we thought it could be vampires but every body has a strange mark on them."
"Since when these attacks started and how often are these happening."
"There are two or three attacks in a month. But mostly on the nights of no moon."
"Hm. You can go now. I will appoint few guards to protect the village."
Sebastian told the villagers who left after being ensured. Sebastian was I deep thoughts trying to think about what the villagers had told him. Now first he had to solve this problem to move forward.
The breakfast was served and he reached to the dining room. When he reached there, Saya was already waiting for him on the table. He paused as tenor eyes met making him remember what happened yesterday.
He kept his cool and sat on his chair. Saya blushed seeing him.
"You can start eating now."
They never used to eat together in the palace and would only eat together when the king wanted them all to join him in dinner. But here, it seemed like from now on, Saya was going to join him in every meal.
"How are you now?"
Sebastian tried to end the awkwardness or only he felt the awkwardness in the air.
Saya who was struggling with the steak, looked up and smiled.
"I am better."
"And your wounds?"
"My scars are healing."
"Hm."
Sebastian again went back to eating while Saya picked her plate and moved next to him.
"Prince Sebastian."
She called him who was confused seeing him sitting on the chair that was on his left side.
"I can't eat this much meat. I like chicken but meat....my jaw hurts eating it."
She complained as she showed him the delicious steak and Sebastian wondered why would she not want to eat this fine meat.
Unlike Lycans, humans did not just want to eat meat all the time.
"Hm, I will ask the chef to cool something for you."
He added not knowing how to act on the situation while Saya smiled brightly.
"Also, there are no rice and fruits. I like fruits."
"Hm, I will keept that in mind."
"Also, veggies. I don't like all the veggies but I like salad. Sometimes when I am bored I want to eat sour cucumber salad."
"Are you a cow?"
Sebastian glared at her who shook her head in all seriousness.
"No, I am a human."
She ensured him who scoffed.
"Why do you eat so much meat? Even back in the palace, you all were consuming so much meat. You should also eat fruits and vegetables. It's good for your health."
She added again and Sebastian knitted his brows. She was not his mother then why she was acting like one.
"If you are eating such healthy food then why don't you have strong muscles. All I saw on your body was fat."
Saya blinked slowly. No, she was not fat but Sebastian only wanted to make her embarrassed.
And Saya did what he wanted her to do but...
She put her hand on her mouth and shyly hit his arm.
"You are so naughty Prince Sebastian."
Sebastian stared at the annoying human in disbelief who was acting all shy as if they had something special yesterday but in reality, they did not. It was all an accident.
"You..."
He glared at her who bit her lower lip trying not to smile.
"Finish your food." He ordered her who nodded and again start struggling with the steak.
"I will eat chicken in the dinner." Saya announced to the maid who gave a nod.
"Prince Sebastian will have chicken too."
Saya added again and Sebastian could not say anything. He tried hard not to throw the woman out of the palace. He never liked people acting caring towards him. He could smell fakeness from them and he was putting Saya in the same spot.
"And fruit salad. Add strawberries and grapes with mango, apple and.....what fruit do have here? Oh and also potato fries. I miss fries. In my kingdom I used to eat fries all the time."
"If you did not shut up, I will pull out your tongue."
Sebastian warned the princess who became quite and stared at him with fear.
"Why so?"
She still had the courage to question him while Sebastian angrily got up.
"Where are you going?"
Saya questioned him who angrily walked out of the room. There was something wrong with her head and Sebastian was sure of it. May be she hit her head really hard on the rock.
............
Sebastian went to the village but he could find nothing important except for the symbol. It was like a flower with seven petals but the flower was too star ge for him to identify what it actually was.
When he returned to the palace, it was already night.
The dinner was served and Saya was waiting for him impatiently.
The table had no space empty and Sebastian frowned.
"There are people who are dying due to hunger and you are wasting food. You humans are all selfish."
He scoffed angrily and Saya became gloomy.
"Why are you sitting like this? Finish everything or you will regret being born."
He ordered her as he found perfect way to punish her. Looking at Saya he was sure she would be full after eating one piece of chicken.
"Bring me a glass of wine."
He ordered the maid while Saya looked at him.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
"I am full."
It means, she had to finish everything on the table. Saya shrugged her shoulders. It was shis bad luck that he could not eat anything this delicious.
And then Sebastian saw something which made his jaw drop to the floor. Everything on the table was finishing in seconds. Saya was eating in an elegant way but her bites were too big and her speed was fast.
She cleaned the bone from meat and smiled.
"It's been so long since I eat Chicken."
Sebastian glanced at her and then at the empty plates wondering where the food went. In that tiny stomach?
After finishing everything, Saya got up. She smiled.
"I will take a leave now. I will take a bath before eating dessert."
After she left, Sebastian was stunned. She was looking forward to eating the dessert.
Few minutes passed when Sebastian heard a loud scream. The scream came from Saya's room. Feeling alert, he quickly ran towards the room and opened teg door where the room was in a mess and Saya was holding her hand.
"What happened?"
Saya looked at him who reached near her.
"There....there was a man in the room...
He bit me....he...."
Saya started crying showing her wrist to Sebastian while Sebastian looked behind and gestured the general to go out and find the intruder.
He held Saya's hand and looked at the wound. A half flower was formed on her wrist giving him a hint who could the attacker be.
"Are you alright?"
"He was scary.....I was so scared..." Saya sniffed and hugged him tightly burying her face in his chest. Sebastian wanted to push her back but could not do anything and let her hold him.
"Did you see his face?"
Sebastian asked her who nodded against his chest. He could feel every inch of her body and this made his throat dry.
"Hm.
He was so ugly and .... confident.
If I had his face, I would have killed myself by now."
Saya added and the Prince wanted to roll his eyes.

Extra scene
Saya: I wasn't that scared but Prince Sebastian's chest was so muscular so I took advantage from the situation.
He is like daddy with big pecs. So handsome.
Sebastian: . . . .
