A hunt

                                    

                                          
#Dilan#
                          
She was gorgeous, with flawless creamy skin and golden locks of hair cascading down her bare shoulders. Her perfect figure was outlined underneath the pure white sheets, that covered her from bust to toe. She was what many would call, perfect. 
                          
I lay down by her side basking at the beauty on my bed. She opened her eyes slowly and smiled sleepily. She opened her mouth, as if to say something, when the doors burst open. Two men came tumbling after. Butler and Devan. 
                          
"Ah, I see sleeping beauty has awaken." Butler said, mischievously grinning at me. I groaned. 
                          
"Oh and you're here too Karina."
                          
Karina groaned in annoyance and got off the king sized bed, shamelessly letting the covers fall from her body, baring it for all to see. She yawned and stretched, then turned her head to the side and winked. Then, she made her way gracefully to the bathroom.
                          
Devan whistled. Butler stood, mouth agape.
                          
"Princess Karina in your bed Dil?" Devan said once she was out of earshot.
                          
"I don't see how that's your business."
                          
"Forgive me your highness, it seems I forgot my manners. " He bowed in mock seriousness. 
                          
"Its not his fault that he's got women swarming all over him."Butler chuckled.
                          
"Very funny." I said and got up from my bed to get some water, but not before chukking pillows at the two jokers. They caught them effortlessly.
                          
Karina walked out of the bathroom fully clothed, came towards me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I returned it and gave a smile.
                          
"Hey, what about me? " Devan asked, pouting, but she side stepped him and headed for the door.
                          
"Goodbye boys." She called out behind her before walking out and shutting the door softly.
                          
"Yes, goodbye boys." I said as I got on my bed and threw the sheets over my head. They were immediately yanked off and replaced with cold water on my bare chest. I jolted upright and in turn hit my head on the wooden headboard.
                          
I groaned in pain, and my so called friends laughed in response. As I got up, Butler threw my clothes at me. 
                          
"Get up prince, it's time to train." He said as they both went for the door, laughing under their breaths. Once they were out, I heard them break out in full on laughter.

I stood firmly with my right leg as my base of support, as I fought to retain hold of my sword.
                          
"Is that all you've got Dev?"
                          
"You realise you are not as strong as you think you are." He smirked. "I think it's time to put you in your place."
                          
He was getting too cocky. Good. I saw him relax, it was time to strike. I slid between his parted legs, on the dew kissed grass. Before he realised what was happening, I kneed him in the back. He stumbled unto his knees and I held him by his arms and pulled his head back, placing the blade at his throat.
                          
"Don't get ahead of yourself Dev. Do you surrender?" 
                          
He grunted in defeat. "Yes." He said reluctantly, then smirked.
                          
"Seems our prince decided not to wear his skirts today. "
                          
"You may be stronger Devan but I'll always be one step ahead of you." I said ruffling his hair like you would to a young boy. " And smarter."
                          
Butler chuckled, replacing the weapons and Devan punched me playfully as we left the training grounds.
                          
A few laughed at the display. Butler and Devan had been with me since I was just a young boy. Both of their mothers worked in the palace kitchens and we quickly became friends, causing trouble every chance we got. They joined the royal guard and conviently, they became head guards, required to protect me. Not that I needed protection.
