Chloe"Now, it's time to face the demon himself." I sighed and murmured under my breath before sauntering back into his quarter.I walked into the room but saw no one. "Where could he be?." I thought as I scan the whole living room. I expected to see him since he had asked me to come and meet him but here I am, and there's no sign of him being around."Could he have left and never bothered to-""What are you doing here?." I jolt in fear as I heard his hard voice behind me."Yo... Your... Your Highness! I... I was told that-" I was saying but instantly froze for no reason. What should I do? I don't even know what to say. Should I tell him that 'here I'm since you asked for me?' or what do I tell him?And, Why am I even afraid of him? Why is my heart beating twice faster than it should? Am I that scared of him?"Should I write it down to you so that I don't ask questions twice?." He burst at me in an angry tone.What's really happening to me? I haven't turned around to face him yet, I
ChloeI heard maids talking about the princess. I heard them telling each other the princess has a special place she normally visit, somewhere around the palace so, I decided to come check on her myself. I need to be sure of everything before I can do anything.Once I arrive there at the garden, I stood there dumfounded. Though, I couldn't see the face clearly because the princess back was facing me but I am sure this is my Sophia. Same slender body, same curves I usually see when she put on a tight dress, same height but unfortunately, I couldn't see her face. I decide to move closer to where she's standing and if I'm opportune to see her, even for once in order to clear up my doubt then, I will be happy.I stared at her slim body from where I was standing. She seem to be so.loat in thought. I watch her heave a heavy sigh and was about to leave the place but I was suddenly alarmed."No, no, no. Please, don't go yet. There's no way I'm going to stand here and watch her leave my pres
Flashback"Mary, are you sure this thing is going to come off?" I asked her in a worried tone. Yesterday, as Sebastian and I was about to enter his quarter, I had mistakenly bumped into him. I mistakenly pushed him against the wall and his white T. Shirt was stained. He was so mad at me yesterday evening, he really look furious and out of blue, he gave me punishment. He told me to wash his shirt as clean as it was before I ruined it else, he will deal with her. And here I am, with Mary trying to help me out. "Trust me dear, it works a lot. And by the way, what happened? How comes you stained his shirt this much?." She questioned me. "Mary, don't even go there please. I was actually day dreaming yesterday. Then mistakenly, I bumped into him, I guess it's because his back was facing me, so, he doesn't know and then boom! His shirt got stained" I said and shook my her head vigorously as I tried explaining what happened to her. "I have no idea how it happened, I just know that his sh
Alice Anderson"Can someone answer me! I need an answer so please, y'all need to stop looking at me like that""Mmm" Sam answered. "Seb is a prince and Chloe and I used to be a maid in the palace""And, you're the Mary who also works in the palace along with Chloe?" I ask again just to be sure of what I just heard. "Mmm" she answered again. "I... I use to bear the name Mary then because it's my middle name. But, after being married to Nick, I changed my name back to Samantha. Samantha is my real name." She explained while I just sat there and stared at their faces in horror.A whole lot has happened behind my back. I mean, I wasn't there with them in the past so, so it's okay not to know a lot of things about them but, why didn't they tell me about this all this while?I thought, all she was saying since was all lies but I was wrong. She's saying nothing but the truth. She used to be a maid in the palace for Seb and Seb... Seb is the crown prince of England? How in the world did I no
Alice Anderson"Are you okay?" Ken asked as he take a sit right beside me. We all left Chloe's room earlier to give her and Seb some space to talk. We all believe they need it right now. Even though, everything still seems confusing to me. She told me a little about her past with Seb but still, I wish I can listen to all of it. Seeing how the two really loved each other, it's hard to believe that they both went through all of that before they become one. "Mmm, I'm good" I answered, softly. "Erm... Do you also know about Chloe's past with Seb?" I asked him but in a whispered tone. I really do not want others to hear me. He looks at me and chuckles. "Babe, everyone knows about their past except you, I guess. And, that's because you're new... I mean, to them, to me... you know" he said scratching the nape of his neck. Before I can say a word to him, the door burst open as Chloe and Seb walked out of the room hand in hand smiling at each other. We all jumped up from our seats and a
Alice Anderson"Shopping?" I can't help but ask the question that's running through my head. "Of course, today is a special day so, you have to dress well" he answered, opening his car door for me. "Why? Is there anyone special visiting today? I thought, today's dinner is between, you and I, Dad and Mom. Is there anyone coming that I have no idea of?" I ask him again. "Babe, there's no harm in trying something new. And, there's no one special coming over. I just feel to get you a dress. Is that bad that you don't want?" He asked, looking intensely into my eyes. I look deep into his ocean eyes which can drown me at any time and any moment. He really has beautiful captivating eyes. No, no, no. Snap out of it Alice. You're not supposed to do this. You should know all he is doing is nothing but fake - my subconscious warns me. Without saying a word further, I hop in the car. He walk to the other side and hop in the car, he ignite the car engine and drove off straight to the mall to
Alice Anderson"I mean... We... we're getting late. Mom must have been waiting up for us downstairs, don't you think?" I lied again. All I'm trying to do is get out of here before he entraps me again because I'm not ready to get hurt this time around again. I'm sure, I won't be able to control that pain if that happens. "Sure, I will help you with your shoes then" Before I can protest and stop him from doing what he says he was going to do, I'm already seated on the edge of my bed with my right leg on Ken's lap as he is trying to help me put on my heel. As he was helping out, he was smiling too like someone who just won a lottery. I wonder what's going through his mind right now and, what's so funny that made him smile like that. He helped with the right leg and moved to the left, before he slide my leg on the heel, he kissed my toe first and then slide my left leg into the shoe. I widened my eyes in horror and felt a sudden spark again from his action. "We're done. Come on, let me
Alice Anderson"Oh my! Look at your cute little face" my mom said smiling at the picture hanging on the wall I'm front of her.We're done eating and now in my room. She's looking at all the pictures I took when I was still little. Both the ones hang on the wall and the ones in the album. Dad and Ken said they have something important to discuss so, they're now both in Dad's study room. I want to really know what they're both talking about. They exclude me from everything and it's so annoying. We've been doing things together for years and now, they're both counting me out on everything they do. No, I need to talk to them and know if they were able to work on the plan we had weeks ago. "Mom, can you continue to look at the picture for the time being, I need to drop something off for Dad""Is it something serious?" She asked looking at me with a concerned face. "Oh! No, no, no. Nothing serious, it's just about the company. Mom, I will be right back, okay? Please, just give me a few
