“Yeah. I read it. There was a scene where the protagonist was running from her abusive stepfather and she accidentally bumps into another girl, causing them to fall. She apologizes to the girl, but then she realizes that she’s forgotten to introduce herself and she starts crying because she thinks she’s ruined their friendship. Then the reader goes to comfort her, telling her that they understand and that she’s not the reason that they fell. She asks them to continue watching and so they do, until the girl finally gets her memory back.” He explained.“Wow.” You said after realizing that he just told you about what he read in the book. “Did you like it?”“Yes, actually. But I still don’t know why I did that. I shouldn’t have let myself act that way. I thought I had control, that I knew what I was doing, but I didn’t. I didn’t realize that I couldn’t stop thinking about you, and that scared me.”You sighed softly. “I know. Believe me, I’m aware of what you went through with your stepda
The last time you heard such silence was when Serena were pregnant with Sergio. The doctor had warned you about having trouble breathing, but she refused to listen. Instead, she had convinced yourself that everything was going to be okay. Unfortunately, the pain that came with it became worse, and the pain became the most important thing in your life. She didn’t even notice the baby growing inside of you until after it was born. She were surprised to find out that Sergio hadn’t known about the pregnancy. Although she didn’t mind him knowing about it, she were also glad that he never asked you about it. She didn’t know how you would react if he had.Her eyes wandered across the living room, searching for something familiar to distract you. Her eyes landed on your father’s old guitar and you felt yourself becoming overwhelmed by emotions that you thought you had lost. You walked over to the chair that your father used to sit in, picked it up, and sat down in the middle of the couch,
"Yes, I'm pregnant again." You repeated for him, unsure of whether he'd understand you correctly. He stared at you, obviously trying to comprehend what you'd just told him, before speaking again."You mean, you're pregnant again? How many times are you gonna have kids now?" He sounded annoyed, almost irritated."How many times am I gonna have babies?" You repeated, feeling slightly offended. "There's no way to predict this kind of stuff, Sergio!"Sergio groaned quietly in frustration and ran a hand through his hair. "But you're sure that it's mine? There was no doubt whatsoever when I first found out but I'm still not sure, Serena..." He trailed off, not quite finishing his sentence.You stared at him, confused. "Why wouldn't it be yours? Of course it's yours! You're the only man for me." You exclaimed. He sighed heavily."Then, why don't you say it?" He raised his eyebrows at you. You hesitated for a moment, wondering how much Daniel really wanted to hear about your pregnancy. How
She pondered for a second, searching your memory for anything that you could remember from the views that you watched recently. Suddenly, you remembered that you had been thinking about getting a new letter recently because she had lost all your old ones. Sergio must have seen the look of realization on your face because he laughed and shook his head."No, that's alright. It doesn't matter." He reassured you.Serena rolled your eyes at him. "It matters. Besides, we can't possibly watch all of those beautiful flowers in the garden again. That would probably drive us crazy." She joked."True. Okay, what are you in the mood for today, love?" He asked, changing the subject. You paused for a few seconds as you tried to find something good enough for both of you to watch. "Do you wanna watch It together with me, that will be so relaxing." Serena suggested.Sergio nodded. "Sounds perfect. I've been wanting to watch this one anyways.""Really? Why?"Serena and Sergio spent the rest of the d
Charles walked closer to him and place a kiss on the crown of his head. "Are you okay son?""Yeah, I'm fine. I just miss Serena." Julian said."Me too son, me too." Charles said with a sad look.The king then look behind his son to see Queen Eleonora."Queen Eleonora," Charles greet.Queen Eleonora smiled and nod her head. "Your majesty."Charles turn back to his son. "Son, I know this is difficult but remember you have the whole kingdom by your side, and your fiancee is safe. So please try to enjoy today, I know this anniversary is very important to you, and I know you want to spend this anniversary with your wife.""Yes father." Julian reply.Charles face lighten up a little bit. "That's my boy." he said. "Now go and eat, we will continue this conversation later."Julian nodded and slowly walk away from his family. When he reach his room, he close the door and sits down on his bed. He stare into space for some time, thinking about his wife, and when he finally snap out of it, he d
Everyone cheer for Serena, and Julian can feel that her cheeks turn pink as she receive cheers. He didn't notice that everyone is cheering for her, all he knows is that Serena look adorable as she stands in the middle of the crowd cheering for her. He couldn't help but smile when he watch her.Once the party is over, Serena went back home. All night after she talked with her mother about her engagement and wedding plans. It was nice, spending time with her mother.Serena entered her bedroom, closed the door behind her and leaned against the wall. She thought about everything that happened earlier in the evening. She can't believe how things turned out to be. The way she acted earlier when she was in front of Julian, she should not have done that.She remembered the moment when she first meet with him, when he introduced himself as Prince Julian, her heart skipped a beat. She instantly fell for him, she loved the way he looked at her and smiled at her. She remembers the day she got her
Soon enough, James entered the room with his luggage. He was surprised to see Julian. He never expect to find him in Serena's room. Julian greeted him politely."Prince Julian, what are you doing here? Serena told me that you haven't been able to visit for some time now." Thomas said, sitting next to Serena on her bed. Julian gave him a small smile. "Yeah, I know, it's my fault. Actually, I need to talk to you. I hope that it's alright, I'm staying with Serena for a while." he said."Of course it is, why wouldn't it be? I'd love if you stay here for a little bit." Thomas reassured."Well then, I'll go back to my room for a moment, so you two can talk." Serena said and stood up."Thank you, Serena." Julian thanked her.Julian was glad that she agreed to him staying here. It means that she's willing to accept him. She left the room, leaving only Julian and Thomas alone.Julian sat down on the edge of the bed, as he faced Thomas. He knew that James was confused about what's happening b
Serena returned shortly after with her brother behind her."Sorry that took so long. I'm sorry for making you wait. I was talking to your brother about something else." Seren apologized."Nah, its fine. I'm used to waiting." He assured her."How is Serena?" Julian asked."She's doing good. She seemed happy when she heard that you're staying here." Charles responded.Julian looked at Serena and smiled softly at her. He felt content when he saw that she is smiling brightly while looking at him."We should get going. I have a lot to catch up with you both, so I'll meet you guys tomorrow. Have fun." Charles said as he walked out of the room.After he left, she turned around and smiled at Julian. "He sounds very nice." she commented.Julian chuckled lightly before leaning toward her and giving her a kiss on her forehead. "Yes, he is." he answered happily."By the way, we're having a party tonight. You're coming, right?" She asked excitedly."Of course." Julian replied."Great." she exclaim
"It sounds like your husband was really great." He remarked. She nodded slowly, not saying anything in response.Julian knew that she probably needed to process what happened before she could continue talking to him about it. He waited patiently.After a few moments, she took a deep breath and lifted her head."Do you remember when I said that my mother passed away a year ago? Well, it wasn't actually a death. It was a suicide." She revealed quietly. "We had just moved here after that." Julian nodded. He remembered the day perfectly. He had taken her to visit her mother and she had shown them around the house. They had visited the cemetery and Serena had talked about her mother for the entire time.She seemed happy. It was obvious how fond of her mother she was. Julian smiled slightly at the memory."Well, she did it. I think that my father may have been responsible. After he found out, he got violent. And he didn't take it well when she killed herself." Serena explained. She shrugg
The sound of soft footsteps alerted Julian to the presence of another person entering the room. He turned around and gave his visitor a weak smile."Hi" He whispered. She returned the gesture with a soft smile of her own."How are you?" She asked concerned, moving to sit down next to him. He glanced at her briefly and shrugged."I'm alright. Tired. I think I caught a cold. I feel pretty gross, too. My throat is hurting." He answered honestly. She chuckled."That happens sometimes when you get sick. Have you eaten anything?" She asked him. He shook his head. "I can cook you something.""No, no. I can eat when I have the chance." He protested."You shouldn't. It can cause more harm than good." She told him. He sighed quietly."I know. But I'll eat anyway. If it means that I won't starve to death, I'll eat." He insisted. She laughed again."Okay" She agreed after a beat.Silence fell between them as they both stared blankly at the wall opposite of them. After a few minutes of silence, h
"I see…" She paused for a moment before she spoke again. "Can I ask you something though?" She inquired. Julian nodded absentmindedly. "What happened?" "Why did you have that conversation with her?""Because…” He started explaining vaguely. “Because…" He trailed off as he tried to find the words to explain to her. It was true that he didn't want to burden her with anything concerning his relationship with Serena. However, he knew that he couldn't hide things from his family forever. If he did, then eventually they would discover that something was wrong with him. He sighed heavily as he ran his hands through his hair in frustration."Dad, can you give me a minute? I'll be right back" He whispered. Without waiting for his father to respond, he ended the call and went back inside the room. He stood behind the couch for a few moments as he listened to the soft sound of Serena's breathing. He could barely make out any sounds from the living room.He approached the sleeping girl slowl
“Yeah, I’m fine. Don’t worry.” She smiled reassuringly, hoping that her boyfriend would believe her. Julian smiled back at her.“Alright then” He said in response. He leaned forward and pressed another tender kiss onto her lips. A few seconds later he released his fiancée from his embrace and turned to open the horse carriage. Before leaving the parking lot he glanced at his wife once more. “Stay inside, all right? No wandering around alone.” He added.“Sure. Don’t worry.”“I don’t care if you stay inside the whole time, I will still worry.”“Okay” She laughed and waved at him as he drove away. She waited until he disappeared from view before returning to sit down on the sofa once again. She was silent for several minutes, pondering what he had told her before. As she sat there and stared ahead at nothing particular, she suddenly felt like she was suffocating.She took in a deep breath and closed her eyes for a second. When she opened them again, she found herself sitting there sta
He smiled gently and leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on his fiancée's forehead. She chuckled quietly and moved her hands to hold the back of his head. They stayed like that for a few moments before Julian pulled away."I need to go check on something." He announced getting up from the couch.Serena watched curiously as her husband headed towards the kitchen. She tilted her head to the side and crossed her arms in front of her chest."Do you think that he might be cheating on me?" Serena whispered to herself.Suddenly the sound of footsteps caught her attention. She looked behind her and spotted Julian leaning against the door frame watching her."Hm?" She hummed. He shrugged his shoulders."Nothing. I guess you should come with me." Julian told her as he gestured towards the hallway."Where are we going? And why?" Serena asked."I'm checking if my mother and father are home and if they have any guests." Julian answered as he walked toward the closet to retrieve his jacket and t
After another minute or two he started moving his hand slowly. He caressed her side slowly, enjoying the feeling of his thumb brushing against her tender skin. He pressed a gentle kiss to her inner thigh and started teasing her.“Please….please don’t….stop” Serena begged breathlessly, her eyes still closed. The prince smirked and continued to stroke her thigh slowly. He reached the peak again, but hesitated. Just as he was about to push inside her and make her come, there was a knock on the door.Serena froze and tensed in his lap.“Are you expecting anyone?” Julian asked calmly as he continued to stroke her inner thigh slowly. The princess shook her head no and slowly slid off of his lap.“No, it can’t be my parents. They aren’t home yet." She muttered worriedly. Julian furrowed his eyebrows. Something doesn’t seem right. He looked over to his wife and noticed that she was staring intently at the door. There was fear evident in her blue orbs. What could it possibly be.“Go answer t
“I love you so much Serena.” Julian said placing a few quick pecks on the girl’s lips. He heard some gasps around him and saw that everyone else were looking at him weirdly. He frowned and pulled away from the girl. “We have to pay for these groceries so let’s hurry up okay?” He said before grabbing the shopping basket from her hands.A few minutes later they were leaving the grocery store and Julian couldn’t hold back the huge grin on his face. This is definitely the best day of his life and he wouldn’t change any minute of it. He finally proposed to his beautiful queen and got a yes from her."I am so happy." He thought happily.He looked over to Serena who was walking next to him and noticed that she was also smiling like a fool. As soon as they got in the carriage, he reached out and held her hand. "So many things happened yesterday. Our parents came, I proposed to her, she said yes, she said yes to marrying me and I kissed her." Julian laughed and squeezed the princess’s hand
“You look cute today.” His girlfriend said while looking at the prince who is smiling at himself while wearing his blue coat and holding his hand. “How can I look cute when you are wearing the prettiest thing on earth?” His boyfriend said kissing the redhead’s hand.“You are lucky I love you then.” Serena chuckled taking the boy’s hand and heading towards the exit of the park, the prince couldn’t stop smiling.They arrived at the ice rink where they usually meet each other. Their friends is there already waiting for them and they went to the ice skating rink together. This is where Serena found her boyfriend. He was wearing a red robe with scarf wrapped tightly around his neck, gloves and long coat. The boy was smiling brightly like a mad man while trying to keep his balance on the slippery ice, he looked adorable."Do you like it?" Asked Julian while looking at her. The princess was busy admiring her boyfriend, her heart was beating rapidly inside her chest and she felt herself blu
Suddenly, the dragon let out a deafening roar. It echoed throughout the entire pier and caused many people to yelp in pain and fright. Several people started crying and clutching onto their friends' arms tightly as if they would fall apart at any moment. Serena couldn't take her eyes of the terrifying beast which was now standing proudly right before them, roaring and snorting menacingly. It was impossible to tell how many people were trapped inside those gigantic jaws, as the darkness prevented them from seeing. But judging by the loud growls coming from the creature, they must've been close to death.After a few seconds the roaring sound gradually decreased until it eventually disappeared, leaving behind an eerie silence. The crowd was dead silent. Everyone remained motionless, except for the tears streaming down their cheeks and the shudders that wracked their bodies. No one made a peep or uttered a single word. Everyone was glued to the horrifying creature in front of them, a
