PRINCE'S P.O.V:
"Ugh! Why is my father doing this to me? Am I not his real son…"I grumbled murmuring to myself under my breath while carrying my suitcase for the first time in my life.
"Wait....Am I adopted." I thought; I halted dramatically looking up at the beautiful twilight...
The sky dusked and the shadows got long and hard…I tried to call for a cab but my ego was too big to call out a cab by waving my hands around like a fool to get the attention of a lowly cab drivers.
I walked and walked on the busy streets feeling exhausted, not knowing where I was but was too proud to ask for help from others.
I walked nonstop; my stomach growled asking for food.
The hotel staff helped me get a cab at last, it was hard for me to admit that I needed help....
I sighed with relief as I got into the cab hesitantly knowing very well that I was not allowed to book a room in a hotel.
"Well, the light in the mansion is still on. Great! This is the first time I am seeing my mysterious betrothed...Why am I so nervous? Am I in the right place?" I thought out loud as I reached for my phone in my pocket and re-check the address to confirm it.
I got off the cab with a deep sigh and marched towards the mansion of my so called' fiancée' feeling anxious and
exhausted, I pressed the doorbell.
"Yes? Are you invited?" a maid popped her head out from the door looking worn-out and busy…
I heard a loud music playing inside the house, it was like a club. I could feel every music beat beating against the wall, to where I was standing…It was loud and deafening.
"Uhm… Yes!" I replied feeling unsure for I had to keep my identity a secret.
"Okay…Come in, then." She popped her head back in and opened the door ushering me in.
"Haaaaahh... Who is that, maid? Who is disturbing my moment?? Kick them out! I am happy here…" I heard a woman yelling from a distance in a drunken tone…
I curiously looked towards the direction to where the voice came from, I saw a girl with a disheveled red short hair, a princess tiara on her head placed crookedly, wearing a beautiful short pink princess cut dress.
The woman staggered to her feet with her eyes half open, holding a half bottle of whiskey in her hand and an empty glass on the other.
"Miss Nora, he is here for your birthday party!" informed the maid standing beside the door with her head down.
"Hey What up? You're late..... everyone....have gone home…Come back next year.....Mr. Stranger." The woman slurred her words drunk; she spoke really really slow as she wobbled towards me.
I was shocked.. .I felt like I was given an electric shock, I looked at her, appalled.
"Take this, Pal! It's my birthday present to you. Ain't I generous?" She pushed the half bottle of whiskey she was holding against my chest; feeling generous she grinned from ear to ear with a silly look on her face.
"Gosh… You reek of alcohol." I covered my nose with my hand as she came closer and closer towards me.
She leaned forward and wrapped her hands around my neck standing on her toes; she laid her head on my chest grinning foolishly with her eyes closed.
That was the first time I felt a woman's body, for the first time I felt a real living woman breathing against my chest as she purred in content.
"Take-Take her off me please…" I cried panicking like I was about to die; while the drunk woman fell asleep as soon as her head hit my chest.
In the meantime another woman came down the stairs elegantly looking at the maids cleaning the house from the party.
"Where is, Nora baby?" questioned the woman to the maids while she looked around the house searching for her.
"Mistress, young miss is in the arms of that young man." one of the maids pointed at me.
"What!" The woman ran towards me as soon as she saw me and the drunken girl.
"My darling baby... What did you do to my daughter? Are you trying to kidnap her? What do you want from her?" she questioned me frantically without giving me the time to answer while she stared at the woman lying on my chest, not knowing what to do...
"Madam... She is your daughter? Would you mind?" I uttered trying to keep my calm.
"Oh... Give me, my baby..." She ecstatically cried as she extended her hands forward to hold her precious daughter.
"Oh…Oh...Oh…Take her back...Take her back." She said repeatedly pushing her towards me; not able to bear her daughter's heavy weight.
I sighed and pulled her back to my chest in a blink of an eye.
"Take her inside, please..." She requested in a small voice followed by an awkward laughter.
"Lead the way." I scooped her up and carried the girl in my arms not having the energy to argue.
"My Bag...!" I turned back to get my stuff.
"Don't worry, young man, the maids will carry in for you." She assured me as she signaled the maids to carry it in.
"What I thought and what happened…I never should have come." I grunted, feeling frustrated with all the things that happened to me in just one day.
"Her room is here... thank you, young man." The woman ushered me in politely.
I lay the sleeping drunk snoring woman down in her Queen Size bed gently.
Her mother was busy giving orders to her maids, a senior looking maid led me out in the living area and handed me a glass of water.
I could see that the girl was loved and also spoiled… very spoiled.
"Is she my fiancée? The woman my father wants me to married to? I can only hope that I am wrong." I thought gulping down the glass of water.
"Young man, are you the tutor my mom talked about? Or are you here for her birthday's party?" The mother's of the drunken girl walked in the living hall to where I was sitting.
"Yes, I am the tutor and my name is, Lance Bailey. Nice to meet you"
