Chapter 14

- Giselle -

What did I just do? I gathered the sheets to cover my bare chest. I allowed Franklin to make love to me...what was I thinking?

But despite that, I tried to will myself to feel some shame; I was excited instead. What the hell is wrong with me?

"Giselle..." Franklin's deep voice jolted me off my thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"

"We shouldn't have done this," I said, sounding as remorseful as I could. "This is wrong. What will my father think? What will everyone think?"

"Hey, calm down," he said, and his voice was the most soothing sound ever. "Look at me."

I couldn't, I looked in every direction but his face. He moved his body closer and I felt chills.

"Why don't you look at me?" He spoke again and lifted his hand to my chin. He turned my face towards him.

"You're so beautiful," he said. In a few seconds, he was able to deviate my mind from the worry I harbour. I couldn't help the blush. "Your father doesn't have to know about this unless you want him to.

    - Giselle -I sneaked back into my room to find Kira patroling like a paid detective. I addressed her with a frown."What are you doing here?" I asked and she jumped. She had not noticed me walk in."Good morning Princess," she greeted, her eyes darting around. "I am here to clean your room."I eyed her because it did not seem like it. She seemed to be looking for what was not lost. I walked fully into the room, clutching to my nightwear which was squeezed under the desperate grabs of Franklin's hands.I felt Kira's eyes steadily on me as I passed her. I tried to pretend I did not notice her but her persistent glare made me ask."Why are you looking at me that way?" I wondered."Nothing my princess," she bowed. After a few seconds of silence, she decided she could not hold her curiosity in anymore."My princess, you were not in your room this morning when I came. Did you spend the night somewhere?"I jolted my head up at her question."Where else will I have spent the night?" I threw

    - Franklin -My eyes did not leave Giselle when she walked away from the dining, and I found her later in the day in the garden."My pretty witch," I called out as I strolled over to her."Are you stalking me?" She narrowed her eyes at me."No," I raised my hands in mid-air. "Why?""Because you are everywhere," she said. "You manage to find me wherever I am.""It's no fault of mine that your scent is so strong I cannot pretend not to notice when I pass by," I told her, and she suppressed a smile.I took a few paces closer and moved her hair away."What are you doing?" She whispered."Why do you hide my mark," I asked."You are very adamant," she shook her head. "You don't know how my father and the people will take this. What about your son?""When it comes to you, permit me to say I am shameless," I stated and she moved away."We can't be seen close to each other like this," she looked away. "Rumours will begin to fly around.""Well, nobody needs to know," I placed my hands behind my

    - Kira -I was making progress going after Giselle, and we had made it towards the end of the building. All the while, she did not know that I was behind her."Who's there?" A voice made me come to an abrupt halt. "Hey! What are you doing there?"I turned round up to see two soldiers approaching me."Hi," I turned to them nervously and tried to look as normal as possible."What are you doing here?" They asked unsmiling."Oh that, yeah," I scratched my head and looked back. The princess was not in sight anymore. "I am going for a stroll."The guards turned up to look at each other."For a stroll?" One repeated. "By this time?""I was finding it difficult to sleep so I wanted to clear my head," I told them."This is not allowed," They told me sternly. "You cannot be moving around by this time of the night. Besides, you are a woman. Something might happen to you. Go back to your quarters now.""Sure," I smiled at them and returned while they watched me leave.Shit!If only I knew another

    - Xavier -Not long after a maid served the wine I asked for, Kira came to the room and stood over me without a word."Are you okay?" I asked and tried to take her hands but she pushed me away."Xavier, tell me the truth," she demanded and I sighed. Not again."Kira, do we have to go over this?" I ran my hand through my hair. I was tired of her consistent naggings."Are you seeing the princess?" She asked, looking me straight in the eyes accusingly."What kind of question is that?" I asked, knowing it was possible she did not miss a thing."Just answer me, Xavier. And tell me the truth. Stop playing with my feelings," she was already getting teary. "First, it was the dinner, and now you are sneaking out at night with her?"I creased my brow in confusion."Sneaking out at night with her?" "Oh don't play dumb. You know what I am talking about," she maintained."No I don't," I insisted, wondering where Kira got her information from. I did wanted to see Giselle last night, but I was not

    - Kira -Yes!The good thing, too, is Alpha Franklin will be the first to notice her indecent behaviour at the table. She is just about to be disgraced.I quickly walked out of the hall so that somehow, someone would not pin it on me. Before they can find someone to help the princess out of her mess and take her to her room, everyone would have to watch her.- Franklin -My eyes were steadily and discreetly on Giselle as always. I couldn't get my eyes off her and at the same time, I couldn't let someone see me staring at her less they raise questioning brows.While she talked with the royalties with elegance, I smiled to myself, loving her pose and carriage.When she began to laugh unnecessarily at things that were not meant to be jokes, I noticed that something was off.I had to check that she had not taken too much and was acting under the influence. I walked over to her side of the table to take her away."Excuse me, Princess," I called and she turned to look at me, her eyes unusua

    - Franklin -"Good morning, Father," Xavier entered my room grumpily."What's with you, young man?" I asked him with a raised brow. "You've had this long face since last night at the table when you retired to bed and this morning too?"I was beginning to wonder if he had seen me with Giselle."Yesterday at the table, you tried to make an impression before Giselle's father and everyone there that you cared about the princess and is more responsible than me," he complained. "If you had noticed that she was not feeling well, the best you could do for me was come get me to help her.""Really," I narrowed my eyes thoughtfully."I have been trying so hard with the princess, but she keeps pushing me away. Especially when these noblemen come around. I need them to know that I am with the princess so they can accord me some respect too but every time I am being kept at a side.""So this is what it is now," I stated. "You want to do this not because you care about the princess but because you w

    - Giselle -The guards looked at me in uncertainty when I stood in front of Franklin's door."Princess, I am so sorry, but the Alpha is in meditation, and he has strongly ordered that no one be let in," One of the guards told me politely."Oh, that's fine. I will just come back later or..."Franklin called the guard from inside and he ran in. He returned shortly after."You can go in now," the guard told me and I smiled.Franklin was looking towards the door, and his face lit up immediately. I walked through it."Good morning Princess," he greeted as I walked towards him."Good morning," I couldn't help but smile back at him."I hope you are feeling much better now?" He asked and held out his hand to me."Yes, I am," I replied as I took his hand, and he squeezed it gently. I remembered."What happened to me last night?" I asked and he grinned at me."You was drunk," he told me and I narrowed my eyes."Drunk?" Then it seemed to dawn on me more now and my eyes widened. "Drunk?" I asked

    - Giselle -Everyone was looking at me with accusations in their eyes. I did not even know where to start explaining. I had no idea how the emerald got into my room. I looked at Franklin, wondering what was going on through his mind."Father, you know I wouldn't do this, right?" I looked at my father for support but even if he would, he was held back by what the people would think."I'm so sorry everyone," Franklin finally spoke. "I just remember now that I had gifted this Emerald to the Princess the first day we arrived here.""If you did, how come both of you cannot remember the same jewellery?" Xavier threw in."I gave her so many gifts. It's not her fault that she cannot remember," Franklin said to my defence again."Well," Father sighed wearily. "Next time, please try to be sure because these kinds of things can be very delicate. I almost had a heart attack because this sort has never happened here before.""I apologise for this misunderstanding and for the inconveniences this mu

    - Giselle -It was a done deal, I knew it already. Everyone knew, because after the meeting, they all gathered around me and Father and were congratulating us.I excused myself from the crowd and stood a few paces away from them with a glass of wine in my hand.Thank goodness I was able to pull through this. At some point, I was scared it might not work because of the emotional riot I had at home before coming to the meeting.I had stood in front of the mirror after dressing for a long time, a worried look on my face. Franklin walked towards me and held me gently."Take a deep breath," he said slowly, and I did. "You'll do just fine."I closed my eyes to the warmth of his body against mine and nodded to his reassurance."Thank you so much, Frank," I smiled. It was not because I thought I was not good enough. It was because of the tension between Kira, me and my father. It could affect me, but thankfully, I handled it well."Cheers to big things," someone said, interrupting my train of

    - Giselle -The hall was extremely silent while I made my presentation with all eyes on me, but I was not shaken. If anything, I was confident, and the looks on their face, especially Sheka's, confirmed to me that they were very impressed.When I rounded up, there was a round of applause."Beautiful!" Alpha Sheka commented. "This is excellent. This is what I am talking about. Before I get too excited, is there anyone that have anything to say?"He looked around the table, and someone raised his hands."Yes, please, go ahead," Alpha granted him the floor."Everything the Princess has said is very innovative, and I am very impressed. They are all good ideas, but I would like to ask her to make some clarifications. She talked about involving other packs in this investment, and I would like to know how she wants to go about it."Alpha Sheka turned to look at me."Gisele, please?""Okay, to answer your question. If you recall correctly, you must have heard me mention the names of the pack

    - Giselle - It was a good day, I could say, because nothing eventful had happened. And by that, I mean the usual hurdles with Kira and her mother. Ever since we found out she was Dad's daughter, I haven't had any peace.I was in the courtyard when a noble man approached me. I could not tell who it was from the distance so I watched until he came closer.It was Jason, Alpha Sheka's assistant. I straightened up to talk to him."Good tidings, my lady," he made a light bow when he got close."Good morning Jason," I greeted. "I was not expecting you."I looked him over, knowing well he did not come for just pleasantries and he mostly does not have the time for that. I could see the envelope in his hands and my guess was right."There is a reschedule for the meeting," he told me. "And I brought the invitation for you. The time and date are all there."He handed me the envelope and I took it."It seems very official," I commented more to myself but he heard."That's because the last time yo

    - Giselle -I should talk to Dad at least. Since the heat of the incident should be reduced by now. I wasn't myself, I was not happy and I could not sleep.I knocked on his door and waited."Come in, Giselle," he said and I wondered how he knew I was the one at the door. I walked into the room slowly and he was seated on the bed as if he was expecting me."You're awake," I stated, more than asking since I could see that he was sleeping."And so are you," he replied with no emotion in his voice. I sighed as I sat on the edge of the bed beside him."I couldn't sleep and I decided I needed to talk to you," I said and he looked at me. "Dad, I am worried. I am worried sick because of what happened earlier. I was very sad because you did not trust me. I've never lied to you and you know how much I prioritise my business. I will not throw it away simply because I want Kira to be disgraced at the meeting. You know I know well that things are not done that way. That meeting was not for Kira al

    - Kira -"What are you doing here?" I shot at her, feeling relieved that it was not someone else like The King or Alpha Franklin."Kira, how much more can you do to make things worse?" Giselle asked me and I grinned."There is only one way to find out," I replied."Why did you lie to father about the document?" She asked, her voice down. There was nothing else she could do but to ask and only if I wished to, would I give her an answer. I am not her maid anymore and I am not answerable to her."I did not lie to him," I shrugged casually. "The truth is I did not know anything in that file.""And that because you blatantly refused to let me tell you all you need to know about it!" She said empathetically and I raised a hand to her face."Hey!" I scowled at her. "Keep it down, miss. Don't raise your voice at me. I did not want you to tell me anything. I have a right to choose what to hear or not and I cannot stand you.""Kira what you did was very stupid and foolish," Giselle shook her he

    - Giselle -I sucked in a deep breath in shock and covered my lips with my hands. I looked at the blank expression on Franklin's face and did not know how I was going to convince him that I was telling the truth."I don't know how this file is here," I told him simply. That was the truth and nothing else. I had no other words aside from that."You don't know how the file is here?" He repeated and I shook my head."I know this is difficult to believe since the file is right here in our room but that is the truth," I said earnestly.He did not say anything further but went ahead to drop the file on the table. I wanted to reassure him, to tell him that I wouldn't do such a thing and that Kira was only trying to set me up but I did not know what to say.He returned to what he was doing while I was just standing there, looking like a fool. Apparently, I was looking for evidence and here it is looking me right in the eye. What is going on?"Frank?" I called softly, walking towards him. "You

    - Giselle -I stopped to glare at her."What now? You don't want to go? Scared you have a skeleton in your cupboard?" She said mockingly."You know what? That's actually a good point. We should check my room then," I agreed to it and dashed out.I did not look back to check if they were following me, but they were, all three of them. I expected Father to have ended this here, to tell me there was no need for me to prove anything, but no, it seems he was more interested in the evidence than everyone else.Franklin was putting a few things in order when we walked in and he looked at us with a confused expression on his face."What's the matter?" He asked, looking at me."Father thinks I did not put Kira through for the meeting she went for and she told him that even when I did. I tried to let father know the truth but it's difficult. Now I have to prove the file is not with me, so he might believe I did take it to her," I explained."Why don't you check with her?" Franklin asked like a

    - Giselle -So I had to go to Kira's room, father following closely behind. Everything happening before me was very funny like I was watching a movie or something. The fact that Father was even behind me to confirm that I did take the file to Kira was more ridiculous.Anyway, we got there and I knocked impatiently at her door. Kira appeared with an innocent look on her face one wouldn't believe she lied about me coming to her."Is anything the matter?" She asked with feigned confusion."Kira, did you-" I started when Father cut me short."Can you let us in?" He said and she opened the door wider."Sure," she said. "Come in."We entered and she closed the door."Giselle, please repeat what you told me in my room," Father said, and I turned to her."Kira, before you headed for this meeting with Father, I came to you in your room and told you I needed to put you through before you left, and you said you did not need me to do that, yet you told Father otherwise?"She blinked her eyes rapi

    - Giselle -"Giselle? Darling?" I heard someone call my name in my sleep and a familiar scent hit my nose. "Honey wake up.""No please," I said sleepily, turning to the other side of the bed."It's morning. Remember you said you wanted to make breakfast for your father? Look the sun is already shining."And to that, I jumped up and looked around. Truly, the sun was shining outside already."Oh my goodness, why didn't you wake me up since?" I turned with accusing eyes to Franklin and he looked stunned."I tried several times but you just wouldn't get up. Even now, you do not want to. You should be thanking me."I rushed out of the room to prepare something for my father. I decided to because he looked exhausted from yesterday's meeting and I didn't want him to stress any much today.I hurried to his room with the light breakfast I could afford to prepare with time. He was already up and looked like he had freshened up.Oh, Giselle, why are you such a sleepyhead? I chided myself. Thankf
