"Let us dig in." Rick smiled as he continued to have the earlier dishes he had ordered, while Eva started to eat her vegetarian pasta.
"This pasta is delicious." Eva nodded her head in approval, as she gulped the cheesy dish in her throat.
"Oh, you have got some sauce on your lip. Here, let me help you." Rick held out his index finger and wiped off the sauce on her lower lip.
As soon as his finger touched her lip, she shuddered a bit. Rick lightly licked his index finger and looked at the lipstick mark on his skin. "It is indeed an honour for any guy to have your lipstick mark on his finger."
Eva pursed her lips and blushed a little. "Oh stop it Rick. You are acting like, you are meeting me for the first time." Eva shrugged her hand, feeling too shy, by the

A surge of huge jealousy errupted in Rick's heart as he saw how lovingly Eva talked about him. "Eva... d... do you like him?" "Huh?" Eva raised her eyebrows and looked at him in much surprise. "I.... I am sorry, but I just wanted to confirm. I hope there is nothing in between you both except this fake marriage." Rick asked as his heart was now beating rapidly. He was too nervous about the girl's reply. Eva looked at him in much surprise, holding the fork in her hand, as if she was a statue. "D... Do I like him?" She repeated Rick's words as if thinking about it carefully. Rick too raised his eyebrows looking at her confused face. "Why do you have to think so much about it? Eva... d.. do you love him?" Eva blinked several times as if coming out of a deep trance. Suddenly she was reminded of the time that she had called up Troy and there was another girl with him. "Heck no! I was surprised that why are you even aski

Eva nodded her head in approval and smiled a bit. "Thanks for understanding Rick." After another 30 minutes the two of them were already making there way out from the restaurant. Rick had a big smile on his face as he had held Eva's hand, while Eva seemed to have been lost in some thought. Soon they both halted outside Eva's car and Rick gave a tight hug to the girl. "Thank yoi for coming Eva. I love you!" Eva was taken aback hearing the three magical words from the boy's mouth. Sge hesitated for a bit and then hugged him back slightly. "Thank you for the wonderful evening Rick. Goodnight." She retraced her arms immediately and sat inside the car waving a goodbye at Rick. As soon as Eva entered the hospital room after changing her clothes at the palace, she saw Troy who was lazily sitting on the bed and watching television. "I am back." Troy turned his neck and smiled looking at the girl. "I am so glad. How did it go?" He force

Eva too was now looking in his eyes and they both were lost in each other. "You need a man who will protect you and pamper you. Even though you are a warrior princess and can fight your own battles, but you need a faithful companion to give you equal amount of love that your parents have showered you with." Troy continued to speak his heart out looking in her eyes. Eva's eyes went moist as she heard the boy's words. "Why do you always know how to speak the most accurate thing. You always know what I want and what I want to hear." Troy looked at Eva in much longing, while Eva kept looking at him in much thankfulness. "We have a special connect from the beginning. I just know what you need." "Thank you for everything Troy." Eva hugged him tightly and placed her head on his shoulder. Troy too hugged him back trying not to cry. They both hugged for a very long time, when suddenly Troy's phone rang. "It is grandmother. I hop

Troy smiled thankfully and then turned his neck to look at the television screen. "I am watching avengers. Do you want to join?" "Sure! I would love to." Eva nodded her head and comfortably lied on the bed facing the screen. Soon they both were watching the movie, and dozzed off to sleep. Few days later..... Troy was finally discharged from the hospital though he still had mild pain in his head and back. They both had shifted to the castle. This time Troy had decided to be a little more careful and clever. He could not let Diana kill him or Eva. He used to keep an eye on Diana's every move now and was tracking all the places she visited. He was currently sitting in the balcony of his room, when his cell phone buzzed. Troy instantly picked up the call, and seemed like he was waiting for this particular call from a very long time. "Yes Francis? What have you gathered?" "I have been following the driver and also Dian

The two cars were now parked at the extreme corner of the road and hidden with a few tree branches. The four of them were now rapidly walking on the straight road, when Troy saw a gigantic boundary wall with a huge white colored gate. "This mansion is huge." "Yes sir. It is indeed. We will have to climb the gate and enter it. Since the alarm bells are off, they would not know anything." Spoke up a guy as he took out a black colored rope from his backpack. The other man took out a camera, while the third man took out a tiny gun. Soon they halted outside the gigantic gate, and one of the men threw the hooked rope at the top of the gigantic gate, making it fix in one hook. Soon they all were climbing the gate with the help of the rope and turn by turn jumped inside the premises. Troy looked to his left and then to his right, and could see well maintained lawns and a water fountain in extreme corner. "I hope they don't have ferocious dogs." The

The lady's back was towards Troy and she was holding a thick walking stick in her hand. Troy took deep breaths, stepping a little away from the fat lady. The lady's back was towards him, and seemed to have just stepped out of the shower. Her white hair were left open, while she wore a long white colored expensive looking dress. Troy could not see her face, but noticed only her thick looking glasses. The lady looked like she was in her seventies and pretty feeble. Troy further took a few steps back and noticed the lady picking up a cell phone from a drawer. Her hands were shivering from weakness, but yet she looked determined to dial the number. Troy in the meanwhile took a few more steps backwards, trying to notice the lady's face. He hid behind a gigantic couch, and popped out his neck so that he could see the lady. He managed to see her face and was a little raken aback by the amount of makeup she had done. Her face was extremely wrinkled and her hands

He took several pictures of the photoframes, which had Diana and the old lady standing side by side. After he had collected enough evidence, he was about to walk away when he spotted a minute lock next to a painting, across the hall. "This looks so mich similar to the lock in the palace. I have to see what is inside it." Troy yet again turned to look at the sleeping beauty and then slowly started to walk towards the door.He had just crossed half of the distance when suddenly he saw a man standing in front of him. He seemed to have just arrived the house and was holding a large suitcase in his hand."Ermmm.... Hi..." Troy grinned nervousely and was about to pretend to be a guest, when suddenly he realized that the man was nobody else than the queen's driver."What are you doing here?" The man frowned and looked at Troy suspiciousely."I... Errr.... I.. I am a guest. I was invited by the queen in this house to strike a deal." Troy

"But why will she hide it from Diana?" The bodyguard frowned in confusion looking at Troy who was further looking at the ppaers in the almirah."I don't know. But she has amassed quite an amount of wealth by using Diana's position. This almirah is full of diamonds. I think, she is using Diana for the wealth and that is why she must not have told her." Troy frowned a bit looking at several contract papers."Maybe she knows she is adopted and that is why is grateful to her adoptive mother." The bodyguard kept several more papers in his bag, being handed over by Troy."Maybe... but considering Diana's cruel heart she would never be grateful tiwards anyone." Troy smirked as he further looked at a few papers. "Look this paper is a medical document of when King Edward died." Troy frowned as he dusted off the papers. Suddenly his eyes grew big and he gasped in shock reading the papers. "H.. he died d.. due to something in... in his drink?" Troy could not believe

Troy rapidly walked towards Eva, while everyone in the hall was now staring at him in confusion. He quickly sat besides Eva, who had now tears streaming down from her eyes. "Don't cry Eva and listen to me very carefully. There is something that I found out about Diana which, I have not told you. I wanted to have a few more days, but I guess I will have to do it right now."Eva looked at him in confusion, wiping away her tears. Troy had now held both her hands and was looking at her in much concern."What is it Troy?" She frowned hard, looking straight in his eyes."I don't want you to know this when everyone else knows about it, so I am just telling it to you right now. Diana.. Diana.. killed your mother... she did not die of a cardiac arrest... and.. also.. your father. She is also stealing away all the royal ornaments and properties very cleverly, and handing them over to her greedy adoptive mother." Troy spoke in one breath looking sadly in her ey

Suddenly the lights of the entire hall were dimmed and everybody was startled."What is happening Troy?" Eva looked around her in much confusion as she could now hardly see anything."Don't worry. It must be some electricity defect. They must be fixing it very soon." Troy gently held the girl's hand as he too turned to look around him. He knew something was not correct as such an electricity failure had never happened before. Several people had turned on the flashlights of the hall, and were whispering amongst themselves.Troy waited for a few more seconds and he was about to get up from his seat to talk to his staff when suddenly the gigantic white screen in front of them, lit up.Everyone turned to look at the document that was displayed on the screen and gasped in shock."Troy! This is our marriage contract." Eva gasped in shock holding his arm tightly in nervouseness.Troy too was taken aback for a few seconds as

"Help!! Somebody help!!" Eva had no choice but to hold her dress tightly with both her hands. This gave a chance to Rick to come even closer to the girl. He planted a kiss on her naked shoulder, while his hands again travelled to her naked back. "Come to me Eva. I will fuck you so good that you will totally forget about Troy." Rick whispered in Eva's ear, lightly biting her ear lobe. "Move away from me you moron." Eva kicked the man's foot with her heels. "Arghhhhh!!!" Rick screamed in pain, leaving the girl instantly. Eva tried to run away towards the door, when suddenly a strong arm grabbed her waist and yet again she was pulled closer to his frontal body. Eva was slightly lifted in the air, while he pressed her back close to his chest muscles. "Leave me!!!! Help!!! Help!!" Eva screaned at the top of her voice, as Rick's hand went upto her left breast. She was holding her dress tightly, while Rick was grinning and trying t

Diana smirked as she knew that her work in the party was done. She quickly got up on her feet, and walked towards the exit door rapidly, making sure nobody really spots her. As soon as she crossed a well suited man she looked at him from the corner of her eye. "Keep me informed about what happens next." "Yes madam." The man nodded his head slightly and walked inside the gigantic hall, keeping an eye on the three makn targets. "I need to use the restroom." Eva spoke softly in Troy's ear. "Ok. Do you want me to come with you to the restroom?" Troy smiled whispering back in her ear. It was evident from there faces that the two of then were extremely happy today. "It is alright. I will take just five minutes." Eva nodded her head in a 'no' as the two of them walked towards a door at corner of the hall. "Ok then... I shall see if grandma has eaten something or not." He smiled and then walked in a different direction heading towards the old la

"You have?" Eva looked in his teary eyes, wiping away another tear that fell from his eyes. "Yes Eva. Ever since I have gotten married to you, I had fallen in love with you. It crushed my heart to see you with Rick but I wanted you to have an independent decision." Troy smiled caressing her cheeks softly. "I am so lucky Troy. Thank you." She hugged the man tightly, planting her head on his chest. They both did not know, if it was the effect of alcohol that was making them speak the truth, but all they knew was that this was the night of no filter. This was perhaps the most overwhelming night they had ever experienced. Troy too hugged the girl lovingly and everything around them faded away. They could not hear the music or the people talking around them, and were totally engrossed in each other. Rick on the other hand was now sitting on a couch, totally drunk. Just then somebody sat down besides him and Rick turned

Eva looked at him with love filled eyes and instantly planted her hand on his palm. "The pleasure is all mine, my darling husband. Who can say no to a man this handsome?" She got up from her seat and they both walked hand in hand towards the dance floor.Suddenly everybody's attention was diverted towards the newly wedded couple, who were standing on the dance floor looking in each other's eyes."He looks so happy with her."

Eva had not even realized at that moment that she had just rebuked Rick and had instead preferred to be with Troy. Troy too was only bothered about Eva and her comfort and was least bothered about anybody else in the party. They both walked hand in hand and sat down on the bar chairs, happily talking to each other.Eva had just gulped down the chilly snack, made of cheese and onions and was savouring the taste of it, while Troy was now ordering vodka shots for the two of them. "Hmmm.. these cheese and onions snacks are so good." Eva cleaned her lips with a napkin, while Troy fed her another snack."Here try this one. The granny's staff makes amazing food. You will love this." He planted a soft and slimy snack inside Eva's mouth which melted straight away on her tongue. "Umm... this is so good." Eva closed her eyes as the entire delicious fluids of the snack travelled on her tongue.Troy was simply smiling looking at her cuteness as she happil

Eva nodded her head polietly, smiling looking at the elderly man."I am so glad to meet you Eva. And I am equally happy for my little boy here. God bless you my child."

"Oh Goodness." Troy's mouth fell open as he looked ahead inside the gigantic hall. Right in the middle was sitting his grandmother on a luxurious mahogany chair, with her lady doctor by her side. She was dressed beautifully in a long black colored embroidered dress, with a beautiful diamond necklace around her neck. Her hair were tied in a neat and classy bun, while her face showed nothing but immense happiness.She too was clapping happily for the couple, looking at them with tears in her eyes."Gosh!" Eva gulped in nervouseness and she tightly clinged to Troy's elbow. Troy patted the girl's hand and turned to look at her. "We are in this together. We have survived so much together, so this is just a party. If you feel nervous, we can just head to the bar and gulp down a few vodka shots to loosen you up. Ok?" He smiled looking at the girl."Ohk." Eva smiled back looking at Troy. Soon they both were walking towards the door, and could h
