Claimed By My Lycan Bodyguard

Chapter 4

The Lycan King's POV

It was dark. A little girl cried a lot. She felt scared. She was terrified. The wind became ferocious as the thunder grew irate. In the woods, I ran. I was trying to find the girl who had called my name. I looked all over for her. But I failed to be with her when she needed me the most. She lost. I lost her. I lost my child in the woods.

I got up. I dreamed of it again. The trauma had been hunting me every time I slept. It has been a long time since I lost my child in the woods, but it haunted me every time I closed my eyes. I was always looking for her and heard her cry over and over again, while she yelled my name.

It was a nightmare that would haunt me for the rest of my life.

As someone walked into my room, I wiped away my sweat

"Your highness." She bowed slowly.

"Nothing to worry about. I was fine." I let her know that nothing could be worried about. "I just... I just dreamed about it again. The same nightmare, when I lost her."

I didn't want to talk about it. It always haunted me. I didn't know what happened to my girl after that incident. I was always looking for an answer if I could find her again.

"Sorry to heard that. I thought it was better for you to have fresh air?" said Malia.

I didn't give a response. I looked away and saw the picture of my family. We had genuine smiles at that time. I missed my child. When would this happen again?

"I was fine, I would call you when needed." My voice was low, but it was fine to be heard. Malia did what I ordered.

I got up and walked near to the painting. I held my child's face. She was beautiful, like her mother. But I lost her. It was all my fault. I would never forgive myself until I found her again and made sure that she was okay.

"I felt it... One of these days, we would meet again, my princess." My hope that we would find her in the future never died. I knew I could find her sooner.

The wind told me to have some fresh air and let my mind rest for a while. The sky was clear, the sun gave me the energy to believed in miracle. As I decided to went somewhere, my feet led me to the lake.

An ordinary day. I always asked the wind to lead me to my child. I asked heaven to hear me.

I closed my eyes and let my mind adopt the sound of nature. Birds sang, the leaves danced with the winds, and water flowed naturally. It made my heart rest for a while. As I closed my eyes, I smelled something. It was... It was familiar to me. I opened my eyes widely and searched where I smelled that scents.

My heart skipped a bit when I saw a girl lying on a huge rock. The wind blew, and I smelled her orchid scents. Was she... was she my girl?

I knelt to present her to me. My eyes widened even more. Her face looked like hers.

I couldn't control my lips to smile. She was in a coma but was fine. I carried her and went back to the palace. Everyone looked at me, as Malia walked towards us.

She looked at the young lady. "What happened?"

"I found her."

"You found her?" Her face seemed like she didn't get what I meant.

Before I answered her, I let my girl rest in a soft bed. I called the other servant to take care of my princess.

"Where did you found this young lady? Was she okay?" Malia checked the girl. Why did she not recognized her? Did she not feel what I felt for the young lady?

"I found her. I found my princess."

The surroundings fell quiet when I let out those words.

"What? Could you please say that again?"

"She was my child. She was my daughter. I found her. The long lost princess."

Malia didn't respond. She looked at the girl and then looked back at me. I saw in her that she was not convinced of what I said.

"She was... She was the princess? But how? How could you recognize her? Are you sure about this?"

I slowly nodded. "I felt it."

"You felt it? What if she was just a girl who had an accident? You felt that because..." She didn't said what was on her mind.

"Just do what I said. Let me know when she wakes up."

I went out of the room where the servant took care of my child. Her orchid scents made me sure that she was my princess. I felt happy that I found her. I would never let myself lose her again. I would do anything to make her stay with us.
