Cassandra's Pov
I had decided to become his.I knew that once i said his name,that was the end. I looked at Thompson again my mind already made.I struggled to say his name,in the process even coughing.
I knew i felt something for Thompson.It could be a friendly kind of love,romantic,brotherly but i knew that i wouldn't have the chance to find out.I looked at myself in horror and i wondered,What am i doing to myself,this isn't who i am.I grabbed a knife and traced it along my skin.I could faintly hear Amber shout my name but i was back to myself,the badass Cassandra.
I slowly cracked my neck,i could feel everyone watching me.At this point Xavier had dropped his phone and was studying me.I moved to the back of the hall,acting as if i was heading out before i swiftly turned back and threw the knife at the unsuspecting bodyguard holding Thompson. I threw another at the guard directly behind Thompson and when he was free he came to stand beside me.
Amber sucker punched Prince Drake before also coming to stand beside me. I straightened my spine,turning to my confident self."Look Princes,i am not a pushover.I was only acting this way because you are soon to be kings and we were warned to be courteous. I dont want any bad attitude to influence my future so that's why i have been doing everything asked of me".
After saying this,i turned to go but i felt a pain in my chest as i realized that i was leaving Xavier. My Ego willed me to go but i hoped that he would stop me from going,my eyes shimmering with tears and as we were about to leave Xavier let out a loud chuckle and we all froze.
" If you think i am going to let you all go so fast,you must be stupider than i thought".He snapped his fingers and an army of Soldiers Marched into the Cafeteria. I gasped while Amber and Thompson looked shellshocked.I looked at Xavier again.Instead of seeing a Monster,i Saw a young man weighed down by the throne,Trying to get what he wanted which in this case was Me,but he was going about it wrongly. I knew that he was not used to people saying no to him.
I walked towards him,everyone looking at us,i smiled at him and said,Yes Xavier i will be yours.He looked at me shell shocked and in that moment i could see the relief,joy and dare i say it,even love shining in his eyes for me.Maxwell came forward and gave me a contract to sign.
"What's all this",i asked quizzically.Its for the Caledonian Celebration.The Beaumont family would be sponsoring you.
We are the only family yet to have a competitor. Okay but won't people judge your kingdom for Sponsoring a Commoner. I saw Xavier's eyes darken for a moment before i laid my hand on his arm and he eased up.I saw Drake talking to Amber and i saw her call him his name while blushing.Drake let out a really beautiful smile.Xavier must have seen me staring at Drake because he pulled me closer.I looked around for Thompson but didn't see him.I guess he has gone then.
Maxwell walked up to meet me,since you have signed the contract,get ready to go to Caledonia."B..but dont we have to check in,"i stammered out but they just laughed.Why would we need to do that,when we have our individual planes Xavier replied.Oh,i blushed a scarlet red and he just kissed my cheek. I cheered suddenly realizing i was going to my boyfriend's kingdom.Amber got up and stood on the Cafeteria table. Off to Caledonia we goooooooo,she cheered and i joined my best friend on the table cheering until our boyfriend's got us down.
