Click, click, click. Footsteps echoes as someone walks closer to the chamber door.
"Oh my God! What will I do now?, I don't want him to meet me in his room?!" Rose laments as she scampers to the door, peeping to see who is walking towards the prince room. "Maybe one of the maids" she mused, praying its true. Half believing herself.
Alas! It's the prince himself! She hurriedly moves away, trying to hide but the door opens before she could.
"Screech....." At the door stands the one she has been avoiding for a while now, Prince Kingston.
Well....Ask her what she is doing there in the first place?!
She has taken it as a priority to monitor the cleaning of every room and the cooking in the palace even though the Queen had told her several times not to.
"You are a princess Rose, don't do all this again." She would tell her.
Only if she is truly a princess like they all call her but she knows better, they are not related, not by blood. Not at all.
"It's not your work" The Queen would say to her. But she find solace in doing them, they help to make her mind occupied. She won't have time to think about things she can't have nor about things she shouldn't think about.
Prince kingston walked into his chamber and saw his nemesis. The one who has taken a seat in his head, disturbing his reasoning and senses. He wonders why she has been avoiding his presence since their last ball, her coming of age, three months ago.
"Oh, see who the heaven decided to keep In my room today or did you lose your way?" Kingston taunted.
Did the sun rise from the north or south today? If not why will you be in my room or maybe... I timed you will still be here, so I left my meeting hanging....
well.... father will deal with them
...Knowing fully well that in the next 5mins you will run away again like last time, when I saw you running down the hall. I had a glimpse of your back, Rose. I knew you saw me but you acted as if you didn't.
"Why are you avoiding me? Because I dont understand? With every of his words he stalked her, his steps follows each questions as she retreats until her back hits the wall opposite the closed door.
"Prince King..."
"Say that again, Roselina." He cuts her off.
"Call me that again, it's a dare!" His voice a whisper but lace with heavy tone.
I told you not to call me prince, never. Don't you listen? Or should I bite your ear." His two hands caging her to the wall. His gaze on her lips as they quiver. Her eyelids trembles, her body shaking slightly.
His mind wanders to how it will actually feels like to give her ear a little bite. Or maybe.... her quivering lips, the object of his fantasy....his eyes trailing her facial features . Her eyes, eyebrow, nose, mouth, jawline, neck and... cleavage. And suddenly he feels unfocuse. Mouth dry, patch throat and a sudden heat in his body. A reaction he is expecting. Whenever he is close to her like this, he feels the heat. The urge. The tempt.
He leans in, a little closer to her lips, then to her ear, his heart hammering. Only to feel a push on his chest.
And that did it, his mind snapped back to realization. His posture straightened immediately.
Ah..mm. sorry. (Cough)
Rose too isn't doing well. The two on a stand still for a while before a knock gives them the salvation needed.
"Who is that?" Prince kingston asked.
Its melissa my prince. Your friends, prince Charles and prince William are here to see you. They are in the waiting room. The maid inform.
"Your friends are here, I need to go now." Rose said as she tried to walk out, only to be drag back by kingston.
"Melissa take them to the garden and tell them I'm coming. Bring some snacks for us." Thank you melissa, you can leave now." He answered without opening the door.
"And you..... you are coming with me." He turned to Rose who refused to meet his gaze. We have unfinished discussion. Don't even think of leaving today until you tell me why you have been avoiding me like plague" Prince kingston said as he pulls her with him to meet his friends, no matter how she tried to loosen his grip on her, it tightens more.
"Let me walk myself, stop dragging me." She complained.
"So you can run away again, no way!" Prince kingston rejects immediately.
I wont run, let me go.
Kingston stopped. And looked at her, really look at her.....he sighs. Fine, to the front. He tells her after loosening his grip on her.
He points for her to move forward with his chin. Or you want me to carry you? He asked with a raised brow.
Either walk at the front or I carry you since you don't want me to hold your hand. Fine by me. Choose one.
Why are you doing this Kingston, let me go and come back after your fri....
Wait, like how you came back yesterday or three days ago? Maybe you think l am foolish or stupid.
Answer me. Walk or carry?
