"Huh?!" a young Lara exclaimed in surprise and stepped back with cautious eyes.
As a princess, she was supposed to reignite the morale of the soldiers who were climbing up the mountains to find the item mentioned in the great prophecy.
But just as her carriage neared the camp at the bottom of the mountains, she was kidnapped by the person before her.
At first, she was scared, but she soon calmed down.
She folded her arms, smirked and asked, "You think the kingdom would stop because you kidnapped me?"
Haden placed his spear down, looked into her youthful blue eyes with his piercing red ones and said, "You think too little of yourself, princess. Do not forget — You carry the royal blood. So they have to do it, if they don't want to lose a royal."
She looked into his eyes without a hint of fear or worry and asked, "What makes you think that I can't run away from here?"
He leaned against the tree and muttered, "You can try."
