"-Mal we need to talk?" The girl looked at him for a while before answering raising an eyebrow
"-About ?
-About tonight…it was an assassination attempt to kill Ayana, so that we can't m….
-you can't marry and so you won't become the king of the Nox Empire. I am really tired of hearing the same stupid story every time. And why are you telling me this?
-we need your help… and you are the only one that can help.
-and what's your plan mister Nox?
-Well, the problem is you are not gonna like it and probably get mad.
-if you know that I am not gonna agree with your plan and CERTAINLY get mad, why are you then wasting my time.
- Like woman for god's love! Can't you let me explain myself first and then judge it yourself?" mal looked at him intensely waiting for him to speak.
"-ok… the plan is that….Wehavetogetmarried!" he is said it super fast making the girl yelled.
"-WHAT?!! I swear you lost your mind!! You'd better stop joking and tell me that stupid plan of yours, because you started pushing my buttons." At that moment Ray and Ellie couldn't battle their laughter more, their eyes got teary and couldn't breathe anymore falling on the ground, and Ayana hiding her laugh to not piss Mal more than she is.
-the part that I AM not joking… We have to get married to protect Ayana and we assure my coronation.
-Can you not just get married for now till we find those traitors?
-if you want incubus to take over the whole kingdom let's not say the whole region. Then let's apply your plan." Kier said after making himself comfortable on the chair in front of her.
"-like do you want me to sacrifice my life for you to be the king, but I don't mind if it comes to Ayana's safety.
-Mal…listen it's okay you don't have to…but we thought you are the only capable person to replace me, and you can protect yourself however…I am just useless I can't even stand up for myself. If I was like you…I guess things will be different that time."Ayana held Mal's arm trying to express her thought's to end up crying. Malin felt sad about the princess and hugged her tightly even though she was in pain.
"-don't say that, no one is useless. You just need to know yourself, and determine your purpose in life. Like, if it wasn't you, these two idiots would get in a big trouble." Ray and Ellie felt offended but when they saw Ayana chuckled they shrugged it off.
"-don't worry I won't disappoint you, but…can we look again over the marriage part.
-girl it's a lifetime opportunity, you won't get the chance again to call someone with this handsome face as your husband." Kier said confidently but Mal snapped back:
"-I'd rather marry an incubus than marry you!" The prince didn't act offended but he smirked mischievously at her.
"-think about it Mal. You are gonna marry a royalty after all. I want to be the braid maid." Ellie said excited
"-you mean a joke of a royalty.
-like for real girl, I will be honored to escort you down the aisle." Ray added with joy filling his voice.
"-ok but it's a fake marriage.
-we can make it a real one if you want honey." Kieran said teasingly and smirked at her but she threw a glass was sitting on the nightstand beside her.
The prince dogged the cup before it could hit him to end up crushing on the wall. Ellie stood up moving anything harmful that could be thrown away from Mal's reach.
"-anyway, my father said he will give you anything you ask for if you agree. So don't hesitate to ask for anything we already own you a lot.
-I'm fine and thanks for your generosity Ayana. I didn't ask for you to pay me back. All I am gonna ask for is to give Ellie and Ray rooms to stay in for tonight, and tell that pervert over there to get up and stop looking at me that way.
-I can't help princess. You are more than beautiful, how can I stop admiring that pretty face of yours.
-don't call me a princess again and stop staring at me or I will pull your eyes.
-if you ask for my heart I won't hesitate to give it to you." When Kieran ended with his cheesy line the Princess, Ray and Ellie laughed at them but when Mal shot them death glares they got back to their senses.
"-when is this shit gonna occur?
-you mean our wedding…next month." Mal's eyes widened at the sudden information Kieran hit her with.
"-Mal sweetheart… I know I am irresistible… but you don't have to look at me this way…it's attractive." Mal had enough with his shit, she was about to stood up and taught him a good lesson, but Ray and Ellie pinned her down and Ayana jumped from her spot dragging Kieran out of the room.
"-goodnight baby, have sweet dreams about me!" he said blowing a kiss at her before the princess could shut the door behind them.
"-are you sure you are not in love with her?" Ayana said catching her breath while Kieran looked indifferent smiling and putting his hands in his pockets turning his heals to his room."- I told you are gonna be mine Mal. Just wait a little bit more."
"-Why the hell did you stop me? I was about to take my revenge from this shitty boy!
-ok princess…hold back your horses, we need him to attend the marriage as a one piece.
-you know I hate this nickname Ray.
-I can't help it, it's your childhood nickname… and now, you will officially be the queen, your highness." He said bowing at his friend who chuckled at his cheesy behavior.
-yeah, the fact I am not a royalty.
-believing is the key Mal... and a crown." The trio spent the night laughing and bringing back the old lovely souvenirs of their childhood.
