The next morning, Roman entered the library hesitantly, looking around nervously at everyone who passed by. He couldn't seem to shake off the feeling that someone was watching him. He tried his best to ignore the sensation, walking towards his table, but the feeling continued. He eventually noticed a familiar dark skinned girl sitting at a table nearby. Her raven hair fell neatly around her shoulders, accentuating her pale features. She wore a pink dress with white lace trimming. Her green eyes locked with Roman's grey ones. Her lips parted slightly in surprise. He stared at her for a moment, before turning his attention to him.He glanced up briefly, meeting the blue eyed prince's gaze. A smile immediately spread across his lips upon seeing who had arrived. "Hi." He greeted warmly. "Come sit down, Your highness, You look like you could use a break." He commented.He glanced around awkwardly. "Is it okay if I take a seat here?" He inquired anxiously. "It doesn't feel right to take
Both of them then sit next to each other and continue to watch their surroundings, until they finally go inside their carriage.Damian was looking outside the window, as Celine had fallen asleep on his chest, while her head rest against his shoulder.Damian then put his arm around her, careful not to wake her up."Why are you taking us to the gardens?!" Damian yell, annoyed."If I tell you why, you will only complain about it!" Celine yelled back with a grin."We are already there!" Damian said angrily while pointing at their mansion."And yet you are complaining about it. " Celine replied, with a smug expression."Okay, maybe, but we are in my garden, we have our own place here." Damian said seriously."Oh, I am sorry, I didn't know that your garden is so special that it deserves a whole separate building. " Celine teased him."It's not funny." Damian said crossing his arms in front of him."I know I'm sorry." Celine said sarcastically.Damian glared at her and sighed deeply."Look,
Roman let out a gasp, completely taken aback by the sudden appearance of his biological father. "T-Thomas?" He breathed shakily.His older brother glanced toward him for a brief moment, before his gaze drifted back to his biological father. "Father." He replied, his voice filled with respect.Thomas' father gave them a dazzling smile as he walked toward them. "Hello boys." He greeted, causing Alexander to stiffen slightly. "I'm sorry that I wasn't able to meet you before this." He apologized. "I've been busy, as usual, trying to find the perfect place to give you both your presents." He explained excitedly, clearly extremely pleased with himself.Thomas narrowed his eyes slightly in suspicion. "Presents?" He repeated in confusion. "What do you mean?" He wondered.His father smiled slightly. "Don't worry, it's nothing too serious." He assured. "I just wanted to make sure that I'd given you both enough presents, so that I could officially acknowledge you as my sons." He said proudly
"Good morning, sunshine. How did you sleep?" she asked him cheerfully.Damian groaned once again and then slowly opened his eyes, his green eyes filled with desire."Good morning. Did you slept well? " he asks quietly, sounding slightly hoarse.Celine just gave him a bright smile, before climbing onto the bed and cuddling close to him."Do you know what today is? " Celine ask excitedly, as she looked at the man beside her, who just stared back at her."No, what is today?" Damian asks."It's my birthday! And you promised me that we will do a lot of stuff together today, right?! " Celine exclaims excitedly.Damian blush and nodded shyly, still trying to wake up completely.Celine smiled brightly at him and then started kissing him again.After they got ready for the day, they headed towards the main dining hall.All the maids and cooks were there waiting for their master and his wife to arrive.When everyone saw Damian and Celine walk inside together, they all gasped and started whisper
Roman shook his head quickly in embarrassment, blushing lightly at his eldest brother's words. "N-No I'm not..." He disagreed. "It's all my father." He murmured, causing Andres eyebrows to furrow in confusion. "He always knows what to do when I need it." He continued.Thomas let out a small hum. "Are you sure?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. "Because it looks like you've done this for years."Roman blinked, feeling embarrassed for the second time that day. He hadn't meant to reveal his ability, he just hadn't realized how much he'd been practicing lately. He had spent most of his free time doing whatever he could to help Andres, so naturally he was happy to perform whenever he was. But now that he had pointed it out, he couldn't help but feel guilty.His father gave him an apologetic look, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. "You did well, my son." He praised. "But you should be proud of yourself, I promise." He added sincerely.A smile appeared on Roman's face once more, befor
Damian looked around and found his favorite black tuxedo hanging neatly on his closet door. He picked it up and put it on, before heading towards the kitchen, where he found a note on the refrigerator saying that Celine was already in the kitchen, making breakfast for them both.Damian smiled as he read it and decided to start cooking. He cooked them both breakfast and brought it to the coffee table in the living room, where they were currently sitting together.They ate and talked happily for a while before Celine suddenly stopped eating her food and looks at him with big puppy dog eyes."Are you still mad at me, sweetie? " she asked worriedly."Of course not, baby. Why would you think that? " Damian said, confused by her sudden question."Because I'm the reason why you had to wait until tomorrow for our anniversary." Celine said sadly."Don't worry, baby. You don't have anything to apologize for. And besides, I've never seen you happier than you are right now, so I can forgive you."
After eating breakfast, they quickly drove to the Wayne mansion. Once there, they went inside the main hall and headed towards the living room. They arrived there just in time to see Alfred putting plates of delicious food on the coffee table."Alfred." Celine said happily."Good morning, Miss Celine. Master Damian." Alfred replied, smiling warmly at them both.Damian returned the smile and sat next to Celine, giving Alfred a brief hug before starting to enjoy his breakfast.Meanwhile, Celine began to chat animatedly with Alfred while Damian watched her in amusement and affection.After about twenty minutes of chatting with Alfred, Celine excused herself from the conversation, leaving Damian to finish the rest of the breakfast on his own.When he was finished, he got up from his seat and walked towards the living room where he was sure that he heard Celine talking with someone.As expected, when he entered the living room, he found Celine and his mother talking while drinking tea toge
After breakfast, they left the house. Celine decided to take a nap during the trip to the beach, since the previous day's events had exhausted her completely and she needed a little break.Damian carried her suitcase and Celine rested her head on his chest, enjoying his strong but comforting scent. They arrived at the beach a little early. It was already pretty crowded and Damian and Celine quickly found a spot under a tree. They laid down on the blanket and enjoyed the warmth the sun provided, occasionally kissing each other's lips. Soon, they were interrupted by a loud scream coming from the direction of the sea."Look!" Celine squealed excitedly, jumping out of the blanket and running towards the shore.Damian followed her, chuckling quietly to himself. He stopped by the edge of the sea and leaned against one of the trees. Looking out at the sea, he couldn't help but wonder how things would have turned out if he didn't meet Celine. He might have been kidnapped or worse, murdered
King Roman finally get all of he ever wanted the throne, peace and his family back without any disturbing, he feels so happy to raise his children together with his beloved wife Celine.Celine was finally able to get out from the cursed and finally together with King Roman."Celine, let me take you into the magical garden there."Celine nodded and King Roman kept holding her hand.He kissed her hands and she smiled happily at him.The two got out of the castle and started walking in the garden.It wasn't just the normal garden but a magic garden that could make plants grow from anything.They went through the garden and when they get to a small pond near the garden Celine jumped into the water.She swims around happily and laughs as she looks up from the water.When she comes back out she saw that the king hasn't follow her so she looked over where she last seen him.He was standing right at the edge of the pond looking at something that made him smile like never before.Her husband a
Unfortunately, this didn’t stop his heart from breaking a little whenever they cried or when they woke up screaming in the middle of the night, scared of monsters or demons, unable to control themselves. Sometimes, Roman wondered if he should try to help them somehow, but then he remembered what happened the previous day. If he had interfered, then the kidnappers would have gotten away with everything, and Celine and his daughters would have died. Instead, he decided to ignore them, pretending as if nothing had happened and letting the incident be completely forgotten. This way, Celine could have a normal life again, and he could finally sleep without worrying about her.As Roman went through that process of ignoring and forgetting about the incident, he gradually began to grow tired. Despite that fact, he stayed up until late into the night before finally falling asleep.When he woke up the next morning, the sun was shining brightly and he could hear birds singing outside in the
Slowly and cautiously, he moved his gaze toward the direction that he thought he had seen the source of the noise coming from. And suddenly, he realized that the source of the sound had been Celine’s hand. She was clutching her left hand tightly in both of hers and she had begun rocking herself back and forth in a small circle. The movements weren’t violent, though, but rather rhythmic, and were definitely something that Roman recognized as something she frequently did when she was upset.It wasn’t that Roman was surprised that Celine was having trouble sleeping or that he was worried that she might be feeling uncomfortable. After all, she had been through quite a bit today, and it was understandable that she might feel that way. But what shocked him was that she was apparently doing it in the middle of the night instead of at the usual hour when he would normally be waking her up to ask her if she needed anything. It was odd behaviour for her, especially after what had happened
So, he would wait. He would patiently try to support his wife, and he would try to be there for her, and he would do his best to make sure that she was always happy. But above all else, he would have to keep reminding himself to stay calm. No matter how angry he was, no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn’t be able to break down if he were to lose his composure. And if he broke down, there was no doubt that he would never forgive himself. Not for something like that. He might not understand what it was like to live with her constantly and watch her suffer, but he didn’t want to find out what the outcome might be if he actually broke down. So, for the sake of his family, he would remain strong and hold himself together. That way, if things did end up getting rough, he had a chance to save what little remained of his family and his sanity.And that was all that really mattered. Everything else, everything else was just distractions.His thoughts were broken away from their current tr
It had become quite clear over the course of the last two weeks that he wasn’t going to be able to keep pushing Celine as far as he normally would have. It pained him to see her hurting like this. He understood, logically speaking, that she was still in a fragile place mentally, but it seemed that the more time that passed by and the more painful memories that surfaced, the less he wanted to push her. So, in order to help her move forward, he would have to allow her to talk to him, but only after she had been cleared for release. He was going to be patient with her, however long it took. In fact, he would be patient for years if it meant that he would eventually be granted the opportunity to help her heal and grow stronger.Roman sighed deeply and ran his fingers through his hair before turning his attention back to the book resting on his lap. It was nearing the end of the third chapter and he had already finished reading through it three times. This was the fourth time he had re
Celine continued crying quietly, occasionally letting out a small whimper or sniffle, until she finally lost the ability to hold back anymore. She sat against the cold white tiles, hugging herself tightly and allowing her body to relax as much as it possibly could. A part of her wished that she didn’t need to be rescued, that she could just fall asleep and never wake up again. Or that someone would come in and save her from everything else. Maybe Roman would come back after work and sweep her up into his arms and carry her to bed. Perhaps she could convince him to stay. To spend forever with her. To be happy together.But no matter how desperately she hoped that was going to happen, it wasn’t going to happen. Because he wouldn’t be back for another week and even if he was, that wouldn’t give her enough time to convince him that her problems were truly worth helping her deal with. It just wasn’t realistic.She wasn’t going to lie. It hurt. There was a part of her that still loved h
Roman sat down at the other end of the counter, turning his head so that his eyes were looking up at her. He had a soft smile on his face and she was unable to avoid smiling back. She loved when he smiled like that. It made her feel warm inside. It brought back memories of simpler times that she wished she could forget. When they were both young and in love. When things between them weren’t complicated or hard to work through. Before everything had gone so wrong and they were separated by miles upon miles of ocean. Before they had even met. “So…what happened?” he asked hesitantly.“What do you mean?”“Well last night was kind of weird…and today isn’t exactly the best situation either, so what happened last night that has you so upset?”“Don’t worry about it,” she mumbled.“It doesn’t look like you want to talk about it,” he pointed out. “And honestly, I think it would probably make you feel better if I knew what was going on. We don’t know each other that well yet…we hardly know
The next morning, when Celine awoke, Roman was lying on the couch, facing her, sound asleep. His arm was slung over the top of her torso and he was snoring gently into her shoulder. He looked peaceful as his eyebrows were relaxed and his mouth hung slightly open. For a split second, he looked younger and less exhausted than he usually did. His hair was disheveled, sticking out at odd angles and there was an obvious flush on his face due to the heat radiating from the heater. Her heart fluttered in her chest at the sight. He looked so adorable and it gave her butterflies to see him looking so tired and worn out. She reached up with her hands to push some of his messy curls away from his forehead before running her fingers lightly over his temples, pushing them downwards gently as she did so. His eyes fluttered for a moment and she thought he was about to wake up, but instead, he nuzzled into her hand, sighing contently as he continued to drift further and further towards slumber.A
Roman nodded quickly, standing up and walking swiftly towards the kitchen. He rummaged around inside the medicine cabinet for a bit, searching through the various bottles until he managed to find a bottle which he immediately popped open and handed to her. She took it gingerly and swallowed down two capsules. She glanced up at him and smiled gratefully. “Thanks.”“You’re welcome. How are you feeling anyway? Are you really alright?”She nodded. “Yeah. I’m fine. A little dizzy, maybe. But I’ll manage. It’s just exhaustion.”He frowned slightly. “But you just said that it’s been three weeks. What happened? Have you not slept for three weeks now?”“I told you, Roman. My body is just adjusting to everything that happened. That’s all. Don’t worry about it. Please, stop asking questions. You’re making me uncomfortable.”Roman sighed and sat back down on the couch, taking her hand into his again. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked so many questions.”“No, no, you’re fine. Just please stop
