Turning me around, "Wow, it really is you. I could have never imagined you to be this gorgeous. Don't get me wrong, you are naturally beautiful." She takes a step back, raised both of her hands as though she was scanning me with them," but this right here is heavenly beauty parking."
*blush* "Thank you, Your Highness."
"Really, your highness...I thought I told you to call me sister or call me by my name" she said with a glimmer of pain on her face.
Holding her hands in mine, "I'm sorry Alexa. I will be conscious of it next time and won't make the mistake of calling you by your title again"
After making sure that her request will be met, "Good."
Prince zeid stood up from his seat and walked up to us. "Sister."
"Alright alright brother, you can have her. You don't need to be impatient. It's not you didn't see her a few hours ago." Rolling her eyes at Prince Zeid, she handed my hands that were in hers to him before going back to sit
The mother and duo all coughed simultaneously at what he just said. While Prince zeid's face remains emotionless. Finding it difficult to believe what I just heard Prince Brice said that this cold, obnoxious, heartless Crown Prince that was thought to hate ladies would think of doing such a thing. He even confirmed that what Prince Brice said to be true. So that why he acted so different with me. I glance at him only to notice he was already looking at me. When he caught my eyes, he raised his brows in question and smirked at me. I averted my eyes from him and mentally shook my head in disbelieve. "hehe, who would have thought that this was the reason you've been acting mean to those ladies all this while brother. I'm quite impressed." Princess Alexa laughed in astonishment. The King walked up to me with his hands outstretched before placing them on my shoulders, "Ashley it's so nice to finally meet. You don't know how excited I am for us to be able t
The King waved his hand, "Stop with the formality and come and join us at the table. It's not offensive at all. You know how much I admire and appreciate you. "You know how much I wished you were zeid's mate, it's just a pity you aren't his mate. But don't wo..." At this point, though I know the King doesn't mean to hurt me in any way, but his words still got to me somehow. Moreover, beside me, I noticed how stiff Prince Zeid became the moment he started talking. The Queen held unto his hand to stop him from continuing what he was about to say, "Lady Anya, please join us." Lookin guilty, the King chips in, "yes join us". Curtsying, "Thank you, your Majesties" She walks to the table and made attempt to sit at the other side of Prince zeid. A frown appeared on his forehead, "Don't...sit elsewhere." Wow, ok... Now I see what they mean by him being rude to ladies. "zeid" The Queen Cautioned.
"I have a meeting with the council, so I'm done here. zeid I want you to join in the meeting, so come along." He concluded standing up. We all stood up in respect for him before sitting back down the moment he left the room. Placing his hand on mine, "let Alexa keep you company till I get back from the meeting okay." Prince Zeid said to me looking concerned about leaving me alone. "brother don't worry she has me here. You can go to your meeting." Princess Alexa Said in reassurance. I gave him a nod " Go, I will be fine." Looking a bit assured, "okay Alexa I leave her to you for now. take care of her. If my attention is needed, contact me immediately." "Bro, don't worry I have nothing to do today so I will spend it with them and protect them if anything could go wrong." Prince Brice chipped in from where he was sitting. "Son go, You can trust your siblings to protect and keep Ashley safe and I will also assign some of the palace's trust
Damn it!!! After all my efforts to get close to the Prince and dispose of all the other female wolves that the King invited to the palace thinking that one of them will be his mate. After my effort of making sure that every one of them doesn't last a day or two at most in the palace before I get rid of them permanently. After my secret warnings to the royal family that the moment His mate is found and enters the palace, she will meet her demise. After I made them aware that all the ladies invited to the palace by the King ended up being dead as a warning to the Prince on what will happen to his mate when eventually was found. I even left traces of blood and killings around the palace after I entered it, to make it look as though my life was in danger so that they wouldn't suspect me at all since I was the only lady that was invited to the palace that is still alive after two days of my stay in the palace. F**k!!! no, I need to do somethi
I will definitely make sure it's soon and not later. Cause I don't think I can stand her presence long in this palace. I need to make it sooner before they feel attached to her with the way they've accepted her. If not they will be so protective of her. *Knock...Knock* "yes" I called out in annoyance. "My Lady I've brought your dinner over," Matilda announces walking in. "Take it back. I will join the royal family for dinner" "B...But my lady you were not invited to the table...and besides this is the first meal the Crown Prince Mate is having with the family and outsiders were not invited" *Slap* Hearing what she said, I gave her a hard slap that made her fall on her a**. Furious, I looked at her crying self, "What do you mean by an outsider. Are you referring me to one? Did I even ask for your opinion? Who do you think you are to question me? When next I ask you to do something and you decide to qu
"you just have to take your precious time to contact us" I hear his baritone voice the moment the light dims. Stuttering, "N...no that's not the case my Lord" "Then tell me why you haven't deemed it fit to contact us for the past few days, my dear". He said folding his hands behind his back as he walked leisurely around my room before coming to a stop by the window, and moved the closed curtains aside to look out the room. Bowing slightly to him, "I've been quite preoccupied with a recent occurrence that I wanted to take care of before informing you about it." *thump...thump...thump* hitting his fingers which is about 3inches long on the window frame, before giving me a side look, "Oh... really. Do tell me what occurred that made you neglect your duty of informing us about what goes on in the palace because I heard something interesting that you might have failed to inform us." Damn, I should have known nothing gets past their line of view. They
But is the palace not supposed to be the safest place on earth, so why would I need protection within the walls? That night, after being kept company by the two siblings and shown around the palace, I retire to my room to call it a day without seeing Prince zeid for the rest of the night. I was told the meeting took longer than was supposed and was still having the meeting at the time I went to bed. During the middle of the night, I was woken up by a foul smell. At first, I thought the smell was coming from outside but when I opened my eyes I felt an ominous presence in the room which made me fully alerted of my surroundings. I looked around and saw a dark figure standing in the far corner of the room. I couldn't see exactly what it is, but it looks like a person with glowing eyes from its shape, and from what I could confirm the smell was coming from it. The figure started moving forward till I could see it perfectly. Gripped with fear, I stumbled ba
MATURE CONTENT BELOW. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. Don't know why but it was so easy telling him this and the moment I opened my mouth to begin, it was as though I became lighter. "I should have just listened to them. Just because of my stubbornness...just because I refused to listen to them for once...I lost them... they got killed just to save my life...sacrificed their lives for mine..." At this point, I was so hysterical with my grief that I could hardly breathe properly. I was pulled into his arms and hugged tightly while he rubs his hands up and down my back trying to console me. I grab his shirt and curled up in him crying my eyes out. This was the first time I cried after the incident. I was so shaken up by my grief that I didn't know when he moved us to a lying position on the bed. It was after some time that I was able to calm myself down that I realize the position we are in. Pan
