The KING'S Sweetheart

Victoria was seating stunned, on the dirty couch in her match box size apartment.. She just couldn't believe what just happened few seconds ago!! ....... Flashback started... "Go to sleep baby.. I am massaging your head, okay?" Victoria said to her eleven year old brother lovingly.. "But, I want to play games a little more.." Vincent whined and pouted his cute thin lips.. She smiled gently and pecked on his little nose "I know you wanted to play, but you also need some sleep after taking this medicine, Vincy.. "Hey, don't call me me Vincy! It's too girly!!" He was a bit annoyed hearing his nickname given by his elder sister.. "I won't, if you listen to me and close your eyes like a good boy.." Victoria replied playful.. "Finehh.. Guess I should listen to you.. After all, I am giving you a real hard time.. Like a burden.." His last sentence was filled with helplessness and sadness.. "Vincent Hale! Don't you d

The next morning, Victoria was seating on the couch staring at the phone in her hand. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong, but, she has to do it at any cost.. After all, her brother's life depends on it. She sent Vincent to school already. so, there should be no problem at all, unless he falls sick again at school. The school authority already knows about his situation and hopefully, nothing would happen. She took the card those men left her yesterday. This is the first time she looked at it closely. But, there was nothing much information. Only a name Alexander King and a number. "Alexander King.." She chanted the name. She felt it familiar. But, couldn't remember where she heard it. She again looked at it "that means Mr. King's full name is Alexander King.." She murmured to herself. Taking a deep breath, she finally dialed the number displayed on the card. The phone started ringing. And after a few rings, the phone was picked up and a calm and gentle voice came from the

Two hours earlier..... Taking her final decision Victoria knocked on the door again. "Come in.." Came his gentle sexy voice. She took a deep breath and went inside. Alexander watched her contently. He knew she would come for sure. But, he didn't say anything, waiting for her to take steps. Victoria felt too uncomfortable because of the silent environment. It's filled with tension. Looking at him she cleared her throat "umm... Mr. King, I... I accept your proposal.." She is still afraid to look at his face, specially his eyes. She just wanted to complete this without looking at him. But guess, God does not want that. He got up from his chair and slowly stood in front of her "Look at me.." Came his voice. But, she couldn't manage herself to look up at him. "Miss Hale, if you really want to accept this then look at me.." His voice was a bit harsh and cold this time, but his as-usual gentleness never left. Without having any choice she finally did what he asked. She thought another

Alexander looked at himself through the mirror. He is a young man of twenty-nine years old who got the most gorgeous face and his grayish eyes enhanced his breathtaking features more. "Young master, you are married now. Do you still need this prosthetic in front of madame?" Butler Celeste asked. Alexander clenched his fist on the prosthetic. "This is not the right time uncle Celeste. I don't want her life in danger, not now. If it's not for her I might not be standing here today.." There was a tinge of softness in his eyes while talking about Victoria. Butler Celeste nodded in understanding "you are right young master.." He then looked at his assistant "George, no one should know how we got married. Especially, her brother Vincent. This has to remain between us.." All three of them nodded together. After the makeup artist have him the new prosthetic, Alexander wore it carefully and then looked at himself in the mirror. He himself felt disgusted about it so how could that little

Victoria came out of her thoughts and quickly shook her head "oh, no! I am fine! The foods are amazing!" She said, giving him a sweet smile. The foods are indeed absolutely very good, there is no doubt about that. But the problem is, these foods don't taste like home. Yet, she can't tell that, right? Looking at her plate she started eating silently. Alexander felt something was definitely wrong. However, he did not say anything too. After finishing their lunch, Alexander went to his study again and Both siblings went to Vincent's room. Vincent went to the big verandah in his room. He didn't get to see it the first time. Now seeing it he was so excited. He looked at his sister with his big bright blue eyes "Are we really going to live here, forever?!" He asked. want to disappoint his little mind. She smiled "You like it here?" Vincent nodded "yes, I do very much like it!" She bends down to face him "then, I will talk to your brother-in-law to let you live here.. After all, my cu
