All Chapters of Royalty or Love #1&#2: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“I am the Prince of Ivaan! How can you leave me like this?” Dileep asked glaring at me. “That prince title has no value in the real sense, and I can leave because I need to protect myself.” I replied, not showing him that his rage is affecting me in any way. “Protect yourself? But from what and whom?” he asked with confusion dripping in his words. “I want to protect myself from you.” I replied, feeling tears burning in my eyes. “Me? But why?” he continued his questions still with confusion covering his features. “Because I fell for you and have the need to protect my heart before it crumbles more. And the great Prince of Ivaan does not have the same feelings and will never have for a girl like me.” I replied in anguish and covered my face to hide my sobs but didn’t miss him getting stiff in his position. ------------------

*Amrin Pov* “No!” I shouted, covering my face with the pillow getting it as a small whisper outside. “Don’t you think it is too late for that answer?” I heard a question making me turn to see my roommate with her raised eyebrows or shall I say my soon to be an ex-roommate. “I know!” I replied, frowning at her. “Apologize to the pillow otherwise it will feel sad to hear your negative reply.” Janani said mockingly. “I am not that horrible.” I whispered frowning more at her. “Really? You know that I will be leaving the state within two days and at the end of the month, which is just a few days you will just have to leave this room. Now, who goes and gives resignation for the work which would have helped you in searching for a new place before that?” she asked sitting before me. “She… she requested me to do this work. Her family gave me so much for my education and everything, then I should do some help for them right?” I asked her hoping she would support my decision. “Nonsense!

*Dileep Pov* I stared at the girl standing before me with surprise regardless of the fact that I am trying hard to compose myself. Is this the girl with whom I talked to yesterday? “Prince? What Prince?” she asked again, frowning at me. “I am Dileep and Prince of Ivaan.” I replied, still frowning looking at her face. “Ivaan? I never heard of it. Are you really a Prince?” she asked with a little petrified tone. “My ancestors were the rulers, but not us. However, my family has the title, and the people respect that.” I explained and she slowly nodded. “Did I really talk to you only?” I asked her. “Of course! Do you have a temporary memory loss?” She asked frowning. “No!” I replied in irritation to her thinking about me. “Your face tone and features were little different yesterday, and you had a bun.” I added. “I woke up at the time driver came so I didn’t get properly ready because of which I left the hair down. And yesterday my friend gave me a makeover to look professional.”

*Amrin Pov* I continue to stare everywhere from the car’s seatbelt to the front seat and then to the beads on the clutch. Until getting inside the car, I was ok to get to the business party as a date with him. However, now it seems all my nerves want to meet me this moment itself, making me wish I just sat inside the flat. I can’t even share with him that I am tense otherwise he will state a new rule. “Are you nervous?” His question startled me and I slowly nodded before turning to stare at him. “Few photos will be taken, and we will go inside. Just stay beside me and no one will ask anything, which would make you more nervous.” He explained assuring me, but it didn’t seem like that as hearing the photo itself, I felt like jumping outside the car. “No… no…” I started waving my hands along with shaking my head. “I said it will be ok right?” he asked, holding my hands tightly and rubbed my palms while I stared at him in shock. “I will be there beside you, and you will be fine.” H

*Amrin Pov* I waved after him and closed the door before leaning on it to pinch myself so that I can see clearly whether all this is real or just a dream. I just thought this would be a very bad thing that is happening, and I would be just surviving it, but now it is more than that. I am feeling happy, and I do not know what is more important than that. Even though two weeks passed, I am feeling like it is just two days by the time rushing in an express manner making me wish it just stretches more. Shaking away all the thoughts, I decided to cook something his favorite for the lunch. We did not get close not just with the physical relation, but also I know about his likes and dislikes. “Hello?” I lifted the call on my mobile smiling. “I am in my In-laws house at present.” Janani started her words with the statement. “How was the wedding?” I asked her smiling. “It was good and now I am nervous.” She replied. “Why?” I asked her frowning. “It is the first night, and I do not kn
