This story is sort of after the fourth book, but there are a few changes. Jonathan parents are no dead and Jonathan is still a Prince. Please R and R and tell me what you think. They will always be a poem at the end of the chap.


Jonathan led Alanna into his bedchamber where they always expressed their love for one another. Her hands were so soft compared to his. He turned to her and saw her smiling at him; he smiled back as he wrapped his arms around her.

"I love you", she whispered into his ears. His lips touched hers as he let his kiss speak for him.


"Jonathan?" a familiar voice woke him up with a start. He slowly opened his eyes, not wanting to erase the sweet moment. When he finally opened his eyes he saw Thayet looking at him in concern. She planted a kiss on his forehead then laid on top of him. Kissing his nose and lips as started to undress him when he stopped her.

"Its not appropriate", Jonathan said as he gently pushed her off him. When did this Prince ever follow the customs? Thayet smiled sweetly at him then nodded her head as she hid her disappointment well.


After Prince Jonathan's engagement to Princess Thayet, Alanna was soon betrothed to George cooper also known as King of thief. They were to wed on mid-winter's festival. Jonathan started to have second thoughts about wedding Thayet. Although Thayet was one of the most beautiful woman world, she was nothing like Alanna. And in which that disturbed the Prince even more from marrying Thayet was that lately he has been dreaming about the Lioness and him.

Alanna grinned at her future husband as they started to mount on their horses. The both of them decided that they needed time alone together without killing to be done. It was a moment before they reached their perfect destination, the beach. Alanna dismounted as she stroke Moonlight's mane. George also got off his stallion and when he glanced at his wife to be, he never thought that any other women was as perfect as her. Alanna caught his eye, which made her blush a beetroot red. When did the Lioness ever blush?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Alanna asked as she trying to hide her beetroot face and failed terribly.

"I'm not looking at you lass, I'm enjoying the view and you're in my way" George said in a teasing tone.

"Am I now?" Alanna asked as she took a step towards him, "Well that's too bad".

With those words she leaned in towards her future husband and kissed him passionately. She stopped for a moment, as she looked deep into his dancing hazel eyes. Love. She saw love in his eyes, she smiled once more and she had never have been happier since the death of her brother Thom, Liam and her cat Faithful.


Thayet entered the women's chamber as she made her way towards Buri and Lady Cassandra, an old friend of hers. Sensing something was wrong Buri and Cassandra asked what was wrong. Thayet explained that Jonathan was acting a little weird and that she thinks that he is trying to avoid her. Buri smiled then said, "He's just nervous about the upcoming marriage, once you two get married he'll be back to normal.

"That's five months away…" Thayet started then she brightened, "Alanna's marriage to George is one month after mine, that's wonderful! She can help me pick my gown".


Jonathan was practicing sword fighting with the young pages and squires when Alanna and George returned back from their "alone time". Jonathan felt a pang of jealousy when he saw them. George held onto Alanna's right hand as they made their way towards the mess hall. He had no right to be jealous or angry with George for being with Alanna. He was going to marry the beautiful Princess Thayet… or will he?
Poem summary

A run away groom

A forsaked bride.

Oh god, its one hell of a ride

A broken heart

Whos to mend?

Who will suffer at the end?

Who would the Lioness choose?

Whos heartwill she break?

Whos heart will she love cherish and take?

She seeksthe truth of whom she love.

Trying not to break the other's heart

But one will win

Theother will lose

Now its timethe Lioness choose.
