Princess Calista: Love's Destiny

Four: In Love Forever More

Calista and Adorian hadn't slept together since her adventure with the Vikings. She would see him at dinner but she, Therian and Nero, the lion spent all their time together. Therian wasn't loved by his Viking family. Calista loved him. They would take a walk in the woods and along the ocean. Nero was always with them. One day, Therian fell in the woods and scraped his leg. Calista took him back to the castle. She had some magic potion that Alicia had given her and she soothed Therian's small laceration on his leg.

"Mommy. Will I be alright?" Therian was such an innocent young boy.

Calista's heart just melted. The boy had never called her Mommy. She loved him so much. "Of course, Darling. It is just a scratch."

Therian hugged the woman he felt was his mother. "I can call you Mommy, can't I? My Viking family never did love me. You are so nice and I want you for my Mommy."

"Of course, I am your Mommy. I will always love you. God bought you to me for a reason."

"Daddy, the Prince loves you. He told me so. Is it my fault that you are mad at Daddy? I feel like I messed things up for you and the Prince."

"No, you haven't." Calista kissed Therian's innocent little face. "This isn't about you. Your father wasn't honest about things that happened in his life. Don't worry. Your father and I will be alright. After all, you're our little Prince. We will be happy. I am so glad that the Vikings bought you here. You have bought a lot of joy in my life."

Calista and Therian hugged and Nero bounced in between them. They hugged the furry beast.

Adorian watched them and smiled. He had to be a family with his wife, son and the mangy old beast. The lion was a gentle creature and so was Calista.

Adorian got Therian to help him plan a boat trip with Calista. Therian pretended to have Calista play blind man's buff by putting a scarf over her eyes. He grabbed a hold of her hands and took her to the boat on the ocean. Calista trusted him. She was so surprised when Adorian took the blind fold off and there they were on a boat.

"What are you doing?" she looked at Adorian so funny.

"Calista, I love you and I am sorry about everything. You loved Therian and surely the love you have for him will help you to forgive me."

Calista nodded. She looked at the deer meat and fruit on the table. She was hungry. "Where is Therian?"

"He went back to the castle with Nero."

Calista and Adorian ate the meal in silence. He kept looking at Calista. Just then Alicia appeared and Adorian was in a frozen state.

"What are you doing, Alicia?"

"He loves you, Princess. He has no more secrets. Give him a chance. You love him, too. I don't like humans much but I like you two."

"I do love him but he lied to me. I need time."

"Time. Someday, you will die. You will be out of time. Don't worry. You and Adorian will be around for a long time but you need to make every moment count. Adorian is a good man. Human but good."

"Unfreeze him. I promise to be nice to him."

Alicia laughed and she unfroze Adorian.

Adorian smiled. "How do you like the food, my Dear?"

"It is very tasty."

Adorian reached out and took Calista's hand. "Let's go out to the deck."

Adorian and Calista went out to the deck. Just then a huge, giant fish came close to the boat. He was gray and white and made weird noises. Calista was scared.

"Relax, my Dear. He is called a whale. Isn't he beautiful? He won't hurt you."

Adorian took Calista's hand and put it on the whale. Calista had never touched anything so beautiful. She felt like she was in Heaven. At this moment, Adorian kissed Calista and she kissed him back. The whale spouted water on them and at the same time, Alicia sprinkled fairy dust on them. The Prince and Princess were soaking wet but they just laughed. Calista told Adorian that she loved him and he told her that he loved her, too. They took off their wet clothes and their passions took over. This was the first time they had ever made love as a couple in love. Calista and Adorian were so happy.

A year later, Adorian, Calista, Therian and Adorian were walking along the beach and Calista was holding their baby daughter Samantha in her arms. Alicia smiled. Her work here was done. It was cute how Nero would lick the baby's face and she just cooled. This tale had a happy ending. The Prince, Princess and their children and their family pet, the lion.
