"Can you tell me how long he’s been here?" King Lucien inquired upon entering the prince’s room.I replied, "I believe he was here all along,""I sincerely apologize, Your Majesty, for not checking his room." As he lowered his head before the king, Walden expressed his regret."It’s all right. The most important thing is that he’s here," King Lucien said. "Call Grand Silva and inform her that she will look after the Prince.""Yes, Your Majesty." Walden lowered his head."No!" Prince Augustus replied in a matter of seconds. "I want my personal maid to take care of me."I was flabbergasted by what the prince said. He had shown worry about the cut on my arm before, and now he wants me to look after him as well. He had never done anything like this before. I’m not sure why, but the other part of my brain seemed relieved.The monarch, like myself, had a startled response when he heard the prince say that. "That’s rather unexpected. If it is what you want," King Lucien gave a slight nod. "I’
I'm unable to do my assignment since I'm concerned about Prince at the moment. I set the paper on the study table and shifted to the bed next to the intercom, not hesitating to push the intercom's talk button."My mother was the one who taught me how to play the piano. She was so into music that every time I passed by her room, I could hear her playing not just the piano, but a variety of other instruments as well. Then, one day, the sound of her instrument was abruptly silenced, and in an instant, a deafening silence could be heard all around her room." Prince Augustus clenched his fist in frustration. "They banished my mother to the palace, and they wouldn't even let me see her for the last time. She had to go through it all by herself! For years, I've been trying to figure out how to find her; up until now, I'd had no clue where she was. Through this thing you handed me, I'm certain that I'll be able to track her down. "I rose to my feet. "I'm here. Don't worry. I'll help you find
Prince Augustus and I were already on good terms, but I was exposed to another round of torture since they were already aware of the type of life I had led. The hateful glances and gossip I experienced again when word of my father's imprisonment circulated throughout Borstal.I took the chance to find Felipe and the other people while Prince was training. They were in the same room when I spotted them."About the video, sorry...""Gemma, please don't apologize; we aren't bothered by the video," Janus said."We're not the kind of people who will pass judgment on you based on a single piece of news. We didn't simply welcome you because you can play the violin; when we accepted you, it included the unpleasant aspects of your life." Elias added."Thank you very much," My face was flushed with tears. "Since last night, I haven't been able to stop thinking about you guys. I assumed you would shun me now that you are aware of my father's imprisonment.""It's her!" Unknown males approached, ea
"Don't mind the prince, but he's right in that you can't call me negie since I don't really like being addressed as such," I said with a grin. "Do you want to see another movie?""Are you sure you're not going to follow the prince?"I shook my head. "He wants some alone time.""All right." He flashed a smile. "Hmmm... let's watch..."We're now viewing the second film that Walden chose for us. When the main character mentions the name Marcos, the image of Marcos immediately springs to mind. Marcos said that he would remain for a few days; he was in the Philippines but did not seem to be there due to his constant busyness. We can't even talk with one another since every time I return home to the palace, I always find him sleeping, and every time I wake up, he has already left."Gemma, it's not like we're children anymore. There are certain things I need to prioritize, and there are other things I just cannot give up."He's right; he's not the same guy I used to be able to see whenever I
As soon as I awoke, I quickly went to Marcos in the guest room, where he was staying at the time. He did not respond to my first knock, and at my second knock, I noticed the doorknob was not locked. When I reached for the doorknob, someone grabbed my arm behind me without warning. "He's already gone, Gemma." Prince Augustus said. "Chasen left before sunrise, he doesn't want to bother you, so he left without you knowing." I chose not to listen to him and insisted on opening the door, only to discover that it was empty. He's right, Marcos left without even telling me. How come he didn't inform me last night that he was going back? Even though I can't let you go again, I still want to say goodbye... I have a lot more to say before your flight, so why did you leave without even seeing me? "Are you disappointed that he didn't say goodbye?". Prince Augustus asked. I responded by lowering my gaze, but the prince lifted my chin to show me what he was holding in his hands. When I looked at
The actual football game between the several schools has already begun. Occasionally, our school would go to another school, and other times it would be them who would travel to the Borstal. Because of Prince Augustus, Borstal always comes out on top. Hilliard entered the final number one in rank. Borstal was just one victory away from qualifying, and their last opponent was Amarillo, which used to be my school.In the past, I thought I would never come back to Amarillo, but because of that game, it looks like it might happen. I was anxious about myself, particularly since I had served as their student president before.We had already pulled up in front of Amarillo and had been waiting for one of the Prince’s royal guards to unlock the door and let him step out of the vehicle. I took a big breath and continued. No way in hell I am not going to be recognized by these people, no matter how hard I try to avoid their gaze."Let us go, Prince Augustus," Walden said."Hold on a second."My g
In preparing for the last game, Prince was relentless. Although he was exhausted, he would step into the field as if everything had vanished. Every time he kicks the ball, it seems to be on fire, in contrast to his prior kicks. It was almost as if he had found a new source of strength.The day of the last game, which was held on the Hilliard field, had finally arrived. It includes almost all of Borstal’s students, resulting in Hilliard’s school being filled."Borstal will win the last game. Wishing you success, Prince Augustus!" I lowered my head.He smiled as he caressed the back of my head. "Thank you, stupid negie."I can’t keep a smile off my face till I get out of the locker room. Until I didn't notice that I was being dragged into a room."Deacon?" I let out a yell.With his palm, Deacon covered my lips. "Gemma, could we just chat for a minute?" He asked."We’re having a conversation already," I said."All right," he said with a sigh before speaking again. "As for what I did, I’m
Silents and awkwardness surround the vehicle. Whenever he stares at me, I try to avoid him, and he tries the same thing.As soon as I arrived at the palace, I walked straight to my room. I let out a sigh. "How could this happen?" I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. Why? It’s as though I’m floating in the air right now.I grinned. "Congratulations, Prince! You did it!" In an instant, his lips were pressed against mine, and I started to tickle my body. My heart has begun thumping like crazy."Thanks to you, I won." He cracked a grin.After he kissed me, he descended to the ground once again. I was stunned by what he did. I couldn’t even open my mouth in shock.As I recall what occurred, I see myself smiling as I touch my lips. I can’t believe he kissed me on the lips. A kiss was stolen from me by the Prince."And the last rule is that you should never fall in love with him." Then I understood what I’d done was wrong. I don’t want to flout one of the king’s rules."Of all the rules
