When he got there, he saw a large number of boys around his age surrounding someone. He moved closer to see who it was, but they were too many. He managed to squeeze himself through the crowd and saw Henry.
Henry glanced at him and noticed it was Rob. His heart was filled with disdain and disgust was evident on his face,
“Hello your majesty.” he rolled his eyes. He’d never forgiven him for what he did to Arianna. Rob didn’t mind him,
“what are you all doing here?” he asked, curiosity sparking again like a live wire,
“Henry’s telling us about the Goddess in the forest.” someone spoke from the crowd. Now Rob was really interested.
“is that so?” he gave a smug grin. Henry crossed his arms and pouted,
“yeah. I went to visit her this morning.” and then the guys gasped and murmurs followed after, their attention was obviously stolen.
“wait! You’ve seen her?!!!” Rob reacted which made Henry smirk,
“yeah. No biggie.” he shrugged like it was not something worth admiration. His ego was really flying,
“take me there! Right now.” those words made Henry shudder. He didn’t know if Diana would like it if everyone knew exactly where she lived. He started sweating profusely,
“what’s wrong Henry? Don’t want me to see the Goddess too?” Rob grinned harder and his actions made the other youths agree with him. Henry didn’t want to do this, he didn’t know who she would react.
“Henry” he put his arm around him, “why are you thinking so much about this? It’s just for me to see her, no problem. Unless she doesn’t exist?”
“fine! I’ll take you there!” Henry could tolerate all things but not being called a liar.
“Great!” Rob clapped his hands together, he loved playing mind games with people.
“When will we be there?” Rob continued to ask the same question over and over again. It bugged Henry out, you know for the king and queen's son, he was quite annoying. He’d rather endure a two hours lecture from his dad than stay two more minutes with Rob.
After a while of walking, they were finally there. Rob couldn’t believe his eyes, it was paradise. He gawked at the beautiful sight,
“Is this where she lives?” what kind of question is that. Henry sighed, he was really pissing him off. He rolled his eyes and looked around, he didn’t see anyone there. Maybe they went hunting for food.
“where is she Henry?” he asked eager to meet her. Henry sat down in the large leafy bed under the canopy,
“maybe she went to look for food. We should wait here for her,” he answered. Rob couldn’t contain himself, excitement built up in him so fast, and was ready to explode. He wondered how she looked like. Obviously gorgeous, if not she wouldn’t be called a Goddess.
He roamed around the surrounding, marveling at every little thing he saw. He looked back and saw that Henry had decided to take a nap. He went to the massive tree and traced imaginary lines along with its bark.
As he did, he heard a sweet voice. So delicate, so soft, so innocent. He heard Arianna. He followed her voice and it led him behind the vines and into another beautiful scenery.
There he saw a naked woman swimming and playing in the water. His face was red, and as much as he wanted to look away, he just couldn’t. His throat became very dry and his member stood out without restriction.
Diana smelt something. Perfume. She turned back to see a man staring at her. It was Rob. Her heart melted when she saw him, but she had to keep a straight face.
“Who are you and what are you doing here?” Diana asked. Rob couldn’t speak. Was he daydreaming or going insane. Why was he hearing Arianna’s voice coming from a totally different woman? He suddenly lost all his sense as she emerged from the waters. Her naked form was clearly visible to him. Such a perfect body, what a shame no one had claimed it.
“you find me interesting to look at.” Diana snapped him out of his train of thoughts with that statement as she dressed up. He blushed so hard, red was an understatement.
She turned to him, fully dressed now, but he was no different. To him, there was no difference between what she was wearing and being naked. She looked at him with a face that can conquer any man. Rob became a numb skull when he saw that face.
“what’s your name young man?” Diana asked. Rob was very sure he was hearing Arianna, could it be her?. It couldn’t be. Diana was too beautiful. Not that Arianna was pretty, it’s just that, there was barely any resemblance.
“Rob. Prince Rob” he replied, never taking his eyes off her. Diana smiled when she heard his voice. It’d been so long since she last saw him, three years to be precise. He’d grown so much. She examined him slowly, seeing every line of his figure. Her tits grew hard after looking at his crotch and she could feel herself getting wet. She cleared her throat,
“How did you get here?” she threw another question at him.
“Henry brought me here to see you” he answered rather quickly. Diana gave an unnoticed eye roll. Typical Henry.
“hmm, I see. Follow me then” she moved past him and made her way through the vines. Rob followed her, unsure of if she was happy that her secret was out in the open.
She motioned for him to sit in the big leafy bed where Henry had fallen asleep. The bed was big enough for five people to sleep on, so he simply complied. She went around to pick fruits for him. His eyes were fixed on her.
Why was she living in the forest? What about her family? What about her friends? These questions span in his head. Wasn’t she lonely here? His gaze softened, who could have done this to her? What wrong did she do that she was made to live in the forest? Alone from people and the rest of the world.
She came back and dropped some fruits in front of him. She sat down on the bed beside him and smiled at him. Rob looked down at the fruits in front of him,
“why all this?” he asked. He wanted to know why she was doing this.
“you’re my guest and you should be treated as one. Not to mention a prince.” she smiled mischievously.
“but it isn’t a must.” he wasn’t satisfied with the answer she gave. This was only something Arianna would do. Give something out of the nothing she had.
“you have come to visit me. No one except the both of you come to see me. And that makes me very happy, so I must show my appreciation. In the littlest way I can.” she gave another good reason. Rob was convinced. It was Arianna. That means she didn’t die, she was just living in the forest all along.
“what’s your name?” he asked, hoping to hear her say her name.
“Diana” she simply replied. Rob gave a smug grin. Arianna was so nice to leave a clue that it’s her by giving herself a name that rhymes with her real name. This was just a confirmation that it was definitely her.
