Episode 4

EVEN WHEN WE'RE WORLDS' AWAY

NO MATTER HOW FAR FAR FAR

OUR LOVE WILL NEVER FADE

IN THE DARK DARK DARK

I knock on the door of the house of aster but no one answered, so I knock again and ask the girl to make an announcement.

Hearing my name, the prince asks everyone outside to leave, then I shall enter.

I did as I was told because I had no plans of making a ‘so-called-monstrous-aura-man’ angry.

I heard some girls calling him that which somehow made me angry.

I enter the house and see two guys sitting out there.

I guessed they were Prince Adonis and Prince Zoe.

I bowed, lifting my gown a little, gave my greetings to the two, “I was told by Prince Andrei to visit His Highness, Prince Adonis and Prince Zoe.”

All four of them looked of the same age.

“How did you know we are not Prince Aegeus?” Prince Adonis asked me. So what I heard is true. He is all about suspicion.

“I was told about you by Prince Andrei on my way to the Capital.”

I said lifting my head high and preventing an eye contact. It will make them believe that I have no idea why they are interrogating me. Wish they were like Prince Andrei.

“ Hahahahaha…… you’re funny Lady Cressida.” I here Prince Zoe say. He surely is a humorous person making everyone laugh. And at the moment both the princes were laughing at me. I wonder what I messed up with.

“both of you, leave the room. Let her spend time with me.” I hear someone say while laughing at me for god knows what reason from behind the curtains.

I guessed it was my Husband-to-be.

After the two left, Prince Aegean showed up and holy shit!!!! He’s hot. Like very HAWTTT!!!

Many girls would have drooled over this guy. Why doesn’t he let others show himself to others.

“For how long will you stare Cress?” still laughing.

Did he just call me by my nick name!!!!!!!

The adrenaline rushed to my cheeks making them red, and making my breath heavy.

“I’m sorry Prince Ae…” he cut me off and told me to call him anything but that.

“so shall I call you, ‘so-called-monstrous-aura-man’ like those stupid servants who Haven’t even seen you?!” I asked in the most sarcastic tone I could. I knew I was playing with fire but only mother Gina called me ‘Cress’.”

“Do they really call me that?!” he just laughed It out but I was being serious, “Call me hubby.”

Is he testing me?

“I am sorry your majesty if I offended you and you are doing this on purpose.” I say fearfully.

He giggled and came near me , hugging me patting my head.

“You’re cute Cress but what I said I meant it. I know this must be new for you but so is for me. You’re the first girl I’ve seen after nine years. You are special to me. Maybe you think I am lying but we have to start with being friends because I am sure you know the conditions of the god for us. One of them is to understand, stand side by side each other and BE co-orperative.”

“I understand HU-b-b-by.” I say trying to hide my face by getting deeper into his arms.

“I called you hear to inform you that I think you have heard the rumors and yes most of them are true but half. I’ve only exile some people as they were responsible for child trafficking and today I fired the made as she tried to add a poison to your clothes which could take your life away. I’ve taken many steps like these in the past but the whole information is not given to the public so as to make them fear me. That’s what a king needs and I expect the same from you. Never do you dare to betray me or I will cut your pretty skin off and wear it around my neck.”

I could now understand what he meant but to hide my fear I told him, “As your Wife-to-be let me say the same thing , Turn me away and I’ll burn you first!”

I made an eye contact and just saw him smiling down at me with his cute dimples.

Do I always end up looking like a fool in front of him?!!!

And then there was a knock to call us out for the ceremony.

“Ae-Aegeus, I’d call you Aegeus and I wanted you to take a look at my face before anyone else.”

“I would do that anyway before some one else saw it.and yeah!! Like a fool stop trying to prevent an eye contact with my brothers because it will make the whole room laugh at you and as the future queen you can’t let that happen.”

I was so badly embarrassed. Oh god! why do this to me? Maybe this trick only works on fools. I just made a fool out of my self.

He removed the cloth from my face , “woahh!! Was all he said and I could see him turning red. Awwiiee my hubby can blush.

Then we held hands and left for our engagement.
