followed and was trying to grab his bracelet but she kept it just out of his reach.  The Princess laughed every time he tried to grab the bracelet and failed.  Prince Morgan finally got hold of Princess Wildheart and held her arms up pinning her back against the tree.  Both of them were laughing.  The two just stood there for a moment, each smiling and looking into the others eyes.  Somehow, both were thinking the same thought and they closed their eyes and kissed. 
      “Sorry Princess, I felt drawn to you,” said Prince Morgan.
      “Don’t be sorry Prince, I’m not, I liked it,” said Princess Wildheart. 
      She kissed the Prince again.  Pricilla just stood there with her hands over her mouth.  She was astonished but very excited in seeing the whole thing take place.  She knew that Princess Wildheart had met the man of her destiny.
      “Here’s your bracelet Prince, I must go now,” said Princess Wildheart. 
      She handed the Prince the bracelet and she and Pricilla turned to walk back toward the castle.  Prince Morgan put the bracelet back on and watched the two girls walk away, never taking his eyes off the Princess.  She looked back at him over her shoulder once and was smiling. 
      “Wow Princess!  That was some kiss you two had!  He is so handsome,” said Pricilla. 
      “He is the one for me Pricilla.  I can feel it in my heart.  That man will become my husband,” said Princess Wildheart.
      The two of them giggled and talked about the kiss and Prince Morgan all the way back to the castle.  It had been an exciting turn of events for Princess Wildheart.
      Prince Morgan just stood there where she had left him, stunned with as big grin on his face.  His mind was racing with thought.  “Princess Wi ldheart, who would have thought and she is so beautiful!  Looks like the contest will have three Princes now.”  He started walking back toward the castle the same way he had come.  “I must tell Duke right away!  I really want this girl!” 
      Prince Morgan made his way back through the castle gates and located Duke over by the fruit vendors.  He excitedly told Duke everything.
      “Wow,” said Duke.  “She sure has enchanted you Morgan,”
      “I know!  I don’t know why it happened but she has stolen my heart.  I have never, ever felt this way before,” said Prince Morgan.  “I will do whatever it takes for me to win her heart and marry her Duke.”
      “I’m happy for you Morgan.  I believe you will get what you want. You’re considering marriage to her?  It must be the real thing then,” said Duke.
      “Yes, I believe she would make a perfect wife for me.  Believe me Duke, I had no plans to get married.  After meeting Princess Wildheart I am convinced that we are destined to be together Duke.”
      “Destiny is a powerful force Morgan.  No way to stop it from happening or understand why it occurs.  You could do worse than to follow your heart.”
      True love had somehow found its way into the hearts of Princess Wildheart and Prince Morgan.  Each could not stop thinking about the other.  Drawn together by fate, their two lives were suddenly connected.  The birthday of Princess Wildheart and the celebrations of her coming of age would begin tomorrow morning.  A good restful evening would be needed by everyone.
