One morning as Alexis is watching Johan fence with Peewit she soon hears the king calling them to come back inside.
"I wonder what the king called us in for." Johan says as he is walking inside with Alexis and Peewit.
"I don't know but I-" Alexis cuts herself off seeing two people she never expected to see again which are the king and queen of the Moon Kingdom.
"Oh Alexis dear! Your alright!" The queen shouts happily.
"You know these people Alexis?" Dame Barbara asks.
"Yes... They're my adoptive parents. King Matt and Queen Sara of the Moon Kingdom." Alexis says as everyone looks at her shocked before looking at their guests.
"Your a princess!?" Peewit asks.
"Wait Alexis I thought you said you lived on your own?" Johan asks as Alexis looks at him.
"I did Johan. I just left my adoptive parents kingdom before that without them knowing." Alexis says.
"Alexis why on earth would you do such a thing? Your parents were worried sick about you." Savina says as Alexis looks at her.
"Because I couldn't take it anymore. I'm not some princess like they want me to be. I come from a wolf pack not a human kingdom." Alexis says.
"Yes and your mother wanted us to look after you and make sure your safe." Queen Sara says as she and King Matt look at Alexis.
"Which is what we're going to do. Your coming home with us." King Matt says.
"Forget it! I refuse to be something I'm not just to please those around me." Alexis says as everyone looks at her
"King Matt and Queen Sara if I may. Perhaps maybe I could accompany you back with Alexis." Johan says as he steps forward.
"Splendid idea Johan. We'll all come along." The king says.
"Johan what are you doing?" Alexis asks as she looks at Johan before he goes over to her.
"Look Alexis even if you run away again on them at least be willing to visit with them for one night. They are your adoptive parents after all. If you do wish to still leave after tonight I'll personally help you leave again." Johan says as he whispers into Alexis's ear as Alexis sighs in annoyance.
"Fine." Alexis says in defeat knowing it's pointless to argue with Johan.
"Than its settled. We'll leave at once. We should arrive by dinner time. You may all stay with us for tonight." King Matt says.
*Timeskip*
"Everyone I am honored to welcome you into our kingdom. I do hope you enjoy your stay." Queen Sara says as Alexis comes into the room wearing a beautiful dress getting everyone's attention.
"Alexis you look amazing. It's different seeing you wearing a dress." Savina says.
"You look like a proper princess." Dame Barbara says.
"It was my lady in waiting's idea. Skylar said it brought out my best features and thought it would be a nice change." Alexis says as she pushes a piece of her hair behind her ear.
"You do look beautiful but you always look beautiful." Johan says as Alexis smiles and blushes slightly.
"Well then everyone it's been a long day. Let's all eat then we'll show you to your rooms. Follow us." King Matt says as everyone begins to follow him.
"Dinner? You said the magic words." Peewit says excitedly causing Alexis to laugh slightly.
*Timeskip*
Later that night as Alexis is walking to her room she then stops upon hearing her adoptive parents talking in their room and gets closer to listen in.
"From what the king has told me she needs to be reacquainted in her royal life. She is a princess whether she likes it or not." King Matt says.
"I know dear. All I want is for her to be safe and happy but I do not believe she is safe running around the way she is. It's not fit for a proper princess and it's not safe." Queen Sara says.
"We must do something. Perhaps a marriage with a prince." King Matt says.
"What about prince Zandar from the neighboring Kingdom of Tangia? He is a well known knight and is very kind. He will surely be able to protect and make Alexis happy. Even if she doesn't love him now she will come to love him in time." Queen Sara says.
"Then it's settled. Once our company leaves tomorrow night we will send a request to the Kingdom of Tangia for a marriage proposal of our heirs." King Matt says as Alexis covers her mouth with her hand to keep from making noise before quickly leaving had getting down the hall as she breathes in shock.
"Oh I don't think so. Your not gonna force me to marry someone I don't love. If I am to take anyone's hand in marriage I wish for it to be Johan's hand not a complete stranger. I love him not some prince I've never met. I knew it was a mistake to come back here. I should never of come back. Well I won't be staying. First thing in the morning I'm outta here." Alexis says as she continues on to her room.
*Timeskip*
The next morning as Alexis is attempted to sneak out she is halted by Skylar.
"My mistress what are you doing up so early? And why are you trying to sneak out?" Skylar asks concernedly.
"Skylar please I wish to be alone. Also please stop calling me mistress. You know I hate that." Alexis says as she puts up the hood on her cloak.
"But Alexis it is my duty as your lady waiting to tend to your needs. Besides you've been like a sister to me since I became your lady in waiting. It doesn't even feel like I'm your lady in waiting where you allow me to do things that others would not allow. Please if something is wrong tell me. I worry about you.. No matter how stubborn or how much you act like your fine when clearly you are not." Skylar says as Alexis sighs.
"It's just Skylar I over heard my parents saying that they will be planning to have me marry a neighboring kingdom's prince. I do not wish to marry someone I do not love. I just..." Alexis says as she gives a sad look.
"I understand. You care for another and wish to be with them. It wouldn't happen to be that knight Johan would it?" Skylar asks as she smirks causing Alexis to look at her.
"How did you know that?" Alexis asks.
"As I said it's my job. Besides I think I know you well enough to know the face of someone who has a heart in love. Alexis if you wish to be alone to think of what your going to do then I will not stop you. Just know that I hope you will follow your heart and find happiness in whatever you do." Skylar says as Alexis hugs her.
"Thank you Skylar." Alexis says as she continues sneaking out.
*Timeskip*
"Oh mom I wish you were here. I really need your advice." Alexis says sadly as she is sitting next to a lake with her horse Gypsy.
"Would a solution to your problem do?" A voice says revealing to be Johan coming over with Beyard.
"Johan? How did you know I was out here?" Alexis asks ask Johan sits beside her.
"I saw you sneaking out. Listen I over heard what your parents said about wanting you to marry a neighboring prince." Johan says as Alexis gives him a sad look.
"You heard that as well huh? I wish it wasn't so. I do not wish to marry someone I don't even love. I want to leave again but I don't want to leave and then for them just to come searching for me again." Alexis says as Johan places his hand on Alexis's hand.
"Well how about I lift your spirits?" Johan asks as Alexis looks at him.
"Johan I'm sorry but how can you help?" Alexis asks.
"Maybe you could marry someone who loves you for you. Someone who would do anything to protect you. Would treat you like a princess and do anything to see you happy." Johan says.
"Johan I care for someone but I'm not even sure that they could love me. Not with everything that will come with it." Alexis says sadly.
"You never know. Maybe they have all along." Johan says as Alexis looks down at the ground.
"Doubt it." Alexis says.
"Well then allow me to prove you wrong." Johan says as Alexis looks at him.
"How can you prove me wrong this time Johan?" Alexis asks.
"Well because I love you." Johan says as Alexis looks at him with shock.
"You what?" Alexis asks as Johan pulls out a gold ring.
"Alexis of the Moon Kingdom. I understand that I am just a simple knight and can not provide the life that a prince might be able to. But I promise if you will accept my love I will do anything and everything in my power to make sure you that you know everyday that you are loved and will be more than well taken care of. I wish to always have you by my side no matter what the adventure. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever met and want no other. All I wish and ask for is that you will give me the chance to make you as happy as you make me... So what do you say Alexis? Will you become my princess and I your knight?" Johan asks as Alexis smiles happily as Johan places the ring on Alexis's finger.
"Yes Johan. Yes! But there's just one thing. What about my parents?" Alexis asks as the two stand up.
"Don't worry about that. I already talked to them this morning and they gave me their blessing. They're happy long as you are. But they are going to have Skylar come with us back to the kingdom to watch out for you since they can no longer do so." Johan says.
"I can live with a protective and motherly Skylar around. She might be protective but is nowhere near as bad as my parents long as i don't give her reason to be that is." Alexis says.
"No that this is out of the way how about we go get Skylar and the others and head home to tell everyone in the kingdom the good news?" Johan asks as he gets on his horse.
"I like that suggestion." Alexis says as she gets on her horse and follows after Johan.
*13 years later*
"And that's how your father and I found love in each other." Alexis says as she is sitting with her 9 year old daughter Elvira in the garden of their castle while Alexis's horse Gypsy and Johan's horse Beyard are playing and running with their filly Eclipse who became their son's horse and colt Dusty who became their daughter's horse.
"Wow mom that was beautiful. Tell me another story about you and dad please." Elvira says as she is smiling.
"How about we tell you the story of how we saved princess Savina from the raven wizard?" A voice asks revealing to be Johan walking over with their 7 year old son John.
"Aww dad this won't be a kissy lovey dovey story will it?" John asks as he looks up at Johan.
"No my son. But the princess was a dear friend of ours. It's just one of the many wonderful adventures I had with your beautiful mother." Johan says happily as Alexis smiles at him.
"When we grow up can we become adventurers like the two of you?" Elvira asks.
"Yea we wanna go on adventures and find our own destinies." John says excitedly.
"Of course you can. As the royal family and the heirs to the throne of the Avalorian Kingdom we believe everyone has a right to be who they wanna be in this kingdom. No matter their back ground." Alexis says.
"Couldn't of said it better myself. Now a quick story then we get ready to leave with your uncle Peewit and aunt Skylar( No they are not married they are John and Elvira's aunt and uncle because Peewit acts like a younger brother to Johan and Skylar is like a sister to Alexis). We're having dinner with queen Savina and her husband. Now which story does my brave knight and beautiful princess wish to hear?" Johan asks.
"A brave story!" The kids shout in union as Alexis and Johan look at each other and smile before Johan begins telling them a story.
*A/N: I apologize for the story being so short but I began to lose interest in this story and deleted episode chapters I was going to do for chapters. I just shortened it so I could hurry and finish it and do something else before I lost interest completely and delete the book which I didn't want to do. Anyways this book is completed and won't be updated again.*
