Chapter 18 - The Prince
Rose Riverback
What is going on...
Dix then walked up the man standing next to the throne and turned around, allowing the man to put a crown on his head and a red velvet cloak with fur on his back.
I soon realised what had happened...
Rose Riverback
You... you lied to me!
Dix Aveguard
I didn't. I never denied that I was the Prince. So, Princess Rose, I heard that you came to marry me.
I snarled and took off the bracelet that he had given me and threw it right into his face.
Rose Riverback
You wanted me, I'm here. But like heck am I going to let you marry me, you lying pig.
I turned around and left the throne room, slamming the door after me.
Dix Aveguard
I'm blaming you, Oliver.
Oliver Bryce
No. This is all on you, Your Highness.
Dix Aveguard
You're my attendant. Give me advice.
Oliver Bryce
I've told you before, I'm an eternal single. The fact that you have your Princess makes me want to rip myself up in jealousy.
Oliver Bryce
I can't give you advice, your Highness. But apologies are best to women.
Dix Aveguard
I shall apologise to her immediately!
Dix Aveguard
What should I apologise for?
Oliver hit his head at his dense Prince.
Finding me near the rose gardens, Dix walked towards me yet kept his distance.
Dix Aveguard
My name is Dix Aveguard, Crown Prince to the Trixx Kingdom.
Dix Aveguard
I'm in love with you, Rose.
Dix Aveguard
I have been for a long time.
Rose Riverback
In love with my status?
Dix Aveguard
No, with you.
Rose Riverback
Okay, so what do you love about me?
Dix Aveguard
Your selflessness... your passion for the things you love.
Dix Aveguard
You'd sacrifice your own freedom and happiness for your Kingdom's wellbeing.
Rose Riverback
I'm only executing my Mother's dying wish.
Dix Aveguard
You've never fallen in love with someone. Let me teach you.
Rose Riverback
That's a lie. I loved someone... once.
Rose Riverback
Why would it matter to you?
Dix Aveguard
Because you are mine. You are my wife.
Rose Riverback
I belong to no one but myself.
He smiled and went to touch my cheek. I quickly backed away before he could do it though, leaving him all by himself.
Rose Riverback
I don't need you, go away.
Dix Aveguard
You told me that you loved me.
Rose Riverback
If you loved me, you wouldn't have made me doubt myself!
Rose Riverback
You wouldn't have tricked me to consider abandoning my country for you!
Rose Riverback
Some part of me, a selfish part, wanted to stay with you, an attendant. I loved you, I'll admit. But feelings can be wrong.
He then grabbed my hand and pressed his lips against mine.
I let him do what he pleased, kissing me until he pulled away.
Dix Aveguard
You are beautiful...
Dix Aveguard
You are the only one I love. I'll never have a mistress nor will I accept the feelings of another woman.
Dix Aveguard
You are all I want, Rose.
His words filled me with joy.
Rose Riverback
Why didn't you tell me?
Dix Aveguard
I didn't want anyone to romance you on the way to the Capital so I decided to escort you myself.
Rose Riverback
But the dangers... my father could have had you imprisoned and killed!
Dix Aveguard
You were worth it.
Dix Aveguard
My sweet Rose... I want to smell you when I get up in the morning.
Dix Aveguard
I want to feel your hair between my fingertips as I wake up.
Dix Aveguard
I want to spoil you until you want nothing more than me.
