Elma's POV
Things have been odd between us since I embarrassed myself last night. Currently, I was escorted to Sebastian's car by the King and Queen, themselves.
Sebastian was clearly displeased. Now to think of the confinement of the car, it was making me anxious too.
Alexander gave me an encouraging smile before he spoke, "I hope you are going to shine at the school too. It's important for the imperials to leave a mark behind them. Our Sebastian did it. I am sure he will continue doing it but the same is expected from you."
I gulped clutching on to my hand tightly. Nonetheless, my glance didn't waver at him.
"Noted; sir. I will do my best. Thanks for encouragement." I really appreciated his concern to make me feel a part of their home.
Though, it won't be easy. The Queen extended her hand and I immediately took it. Surprisingly, she put something into my palm, smiling at me. She gestured and I took a peek into
Hey Guys, hope you're well. Please drop your comment on how you feel about the story. Thanks a lot!
Sebastian’s POVIt’s frustrating that she knows too much. I tossed and turned in my bed after her vain try to get to me. What disturbs me is how my body reacted to her closeness. Why, why, WHY!Groaning, I tossed again; hoping to calm down enough to catch some sleep. I can’t believe my dad too. Why was he going over the board for her? He even enrolled her in the Elite school? It wasn’t necessary. He wasn’t like that so there should be an ulterior motive behind his action. But what it could be?Could it be possible that he wants me to coerce her?My heart raced and I stilled in my bed; hand that was covering my eyes fell to my side.No! That’s not it. He wouldn’t have waited for so long. It was so like my father to come and order me right away; then why now?Is he planning to adopt her?My eyes grew wider than possible!Don&rs
Sebastian's POV"What do you mean by that?"Did I hear that right?"We tried to locate Princess Elma but we failed." Dan answered grimly, shocking me.I hurriedly went to talk to my father. Maybe, a small part of me considered it to be my mistake; that explains the sudden weird feeling in my chest.My father was in the midst of giving instructions."His Majesty!" I bowed slightly and heard him ask the person to leave."I assume that you have heard the news." Father pointed out and I clenched my fist."I did, father. But what is really bugging me is the fact that why isn't she contacted rather than finding her? Trace her location or such." I offered and he shuffled; coming towards me."Were you really with her, Sebastian?" He asked and I went quiet."You would have noticed she doesn't carry a phone. Which reminds me I should provide her with one; but the girl never demanded one in the
Elma's POV'Who the fuck are you?"I felt a grip on my shirt and in another second, I was pulled up by the bad guy. My heart jumped and dropped in utmost fear. This is getting worse.Keeping my eyes shut, trying to get my senses together, I tried to focus on my feelings; the real mermaid feelings.It doesn't matter anymore. Sooner or later, I'll have to do it.Thinking, I surrendered to my real identity. I opened my eyes and glared at the guy.The other one was in complete shock, as he watched my tail wave strongly before landing a hit at the bad guy's face.He seemed stunned; holding his cheek with a pale face. I jumped up in air and did a swirl before taking a dip into the water. Again, resurfacing, I noticed the old man's scratched and bruised face. I felt bad.He got it from helping me.I need to help him too.Angered, I waved my tail again, hitting the bad guy fierc
Elma's POV"How are you? You scared me." Caitlyn rushed towards me; she was reluctant to hug or maintain curtsy since we were standing around the royalties.My heart beats staggered. Familiar warmth came from her that reminded me of my dad. I smiled and held her hands in mine, squeezing them. She was in tears, forcing a smile."I am fine, Caitlyn. Thanks to Mr. White. He saved me." I said and regretted it when she panicked."Saved? What happened? I want to know about it. And thank you Mister for keeping my lady safe." Caitlyn said to Robert, bowing slightly.Robert was flustered. He looked nervous and I just smiled at him to let him know it will be okay.Soon, a towel was wrapped around me and we headed upstairs when Alexander came to greet me."Elma! I am glad you came back safely. Was this the man who saved you?" He asked and I nodded.He nodded and smiled at Robert who seemed to pass out any minute."
Elma's POV"Princess Elma!"Groaning, I opened my eyes and struggled to find the source of this voice. It sounded unfamiliar."Sir White, please ask the female marshal to come here, at once."I touched my head subconsciously and felt something warm. Bringing it to my face, it was surprising to see blood. Suddenly, I remembered everything.I sat straight and finally spotted Caitlyn with a tensed face."Princess Elma! You're awake." She sighed in relief."I-I am sorry but I will be back soon." I said and quickly jumped to my feet, taking off in the woods."Elma!" Caitlyn shouted from behind but I was in a hurry."Sorry to worry. I will be quick." I shouted back hoping she could hear; my voice sounded raspy.Sebastian! He might be in trouble. This was the first time he phased and he might not know anything.God! That is terrible…I kept running a
Sebastian's POVThe fuck!I am sitting naked right next to a girl!What more? She is… gorgeous!Yes, I can see…I can see perfectly well. However, I never thought that the first thing that I would be able to see would be extraordinary beauty.My heart is racing crazily. There are tingles under my skin. Despite the small distance between our backs, I can feel her warmth. It was unreasonably making me nervous.Fuck! What a fine impression she would get of me, now. Damn!To sit here in my birthday suit like the day I was born. No, not exactly… that time I was little with no sense of my own plus my… winnie wasn't big. Unlike now… It wouldn't have responded back then but surely will do any second this moment if I don't stop thinking of her."Um… I think I have an idea."My eyebrows lifted and I turned to stare at her
Elma's POV"May I have a word with you, Princess Elma?" The King asked me to follow as soon as I ran into him.My heart was already reeling from the small encounter with Sebastian. I hope Alexander hasn't noticed it; the explanation will be horrific.I clutched the sides of my dress as I quietly followed after him. Why was he even awake at this hour?We were soon in a room that had a sofa, a piano set at one corner and a table with tea cutleries. He gestured to me to take a seat and I obliged. My legs would have given away at any minute."You must be wondering why I called you, right?" He asked and I nodded."Tea?"
Sebastian’s POV“Good morning, Elma! You guys are together?” Derek questioned her as he appeared a bit surprised.“G-good morning, Derek!” Elma blushed slightly and I clicked my tongue in annoyance.Easy!“Anyway, we heard Jonathan would be back today. The King is throwing a party for his welcome. So, we’ll see you after school as well!” Marcus beamed and it only added fuel to my fire.“Yeah! It’s surprising to learn that he will join our class! So sudden, right?” Derek questioned while we made our way to our desks.“Isn’t it obvious what the King is planning? I think they want to train Jonathan to give Seb a hard ti
