Chapter 13

--
[Scene: A Royal Disaster – One Room, One Bed]
Adrian had survived war. He had faced death without flinching. He had lied, fought, and ruled without ever letting emotions shake him.
But this?
This was worse.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
…One room?
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
[grinning like a menace] One room. One bed. Your parents will be here by morning, and they expect to see a devoted couple.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
We are not a couple.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Ah, but they don’t know that.
Adrian took a slow, deep breath. He would not strangle Cedric. He would not cause a diplomatic incident.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Isla will never agree to this.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Oh, she already did.
Adrian’s eye twitched.

[Later That Night – The Room of Doom]
Isla stared at the massive bed in the center of their room.
Then she stared at Adrian.
Then back at the bed.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Where are you sleeping?
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
The floor.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
[mock gasp] The Crown Prince of this mighty empire, reduced to the cold, hard ground? How tragic.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
I’ll survive.
Isla hummed, tilting her head.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Or… you could just sleep on the bed. It’s big enough.
Adrian stiffened.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
That’s unnecessary.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Oh? What’s wrong, dear fiancé?
Adrian’s grip on his blanket tightened.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
[smirking] Are you nervous?
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
…No.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Then why do you look like you’re about to fight a war?
Adrian turned sharply, dropping onto the floor with finality.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Go to sleep.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Goodnight, Your Highness.
She turned away, but not before Adrian caught the amusement in her voice.
She was enjoying this.
And Adrian—Adrian hated that he didn’t entirely mind.
