Jeannie paced her office as she smoldered over the Prince's threat! How dare he! She absolutely abhorred Royals like him who felt they were entitled jerks! And she had been about to change her opinion of him when she had known that he had fulfilled his promise over the wager! But now, he had actually threatened her!
Pressing the call button, she ordered James, "Find out where that Prince Jerk is staying."
James whistled over the phone as he teased,"Ohh. So the relationship has progressed so fast that you even have a special name for him? And he has not even been gone an hour and you are missing him?"
"Shut up, James. Do what I said."
So he wanted to date her, eh? She will show him what a terrific ( terrifying) date she could be. But, before that, she would give him one last chance.. Once James had given her the name of the hotel, she could not help but give a pleased smile. Grabbing her cell and purse she walked out of her office with a spring in her step.
Christopher realized, he was utterly bored as he stared at the people milling about. This was the pat he hated of being a prince. Attending all these official functions and then entertaining all those entitled people who thought that they had the right over your time just because you were royalty.
After a long one hour, he finally cited an excuse of a previous commitment and excused himself out of the place. He was sick and tired of all this. Thank the Lord that they were returning home soon. At least there were no such fake people.
As they reached the hotel, he dismissed his security and ordered them to take a night off. This was because, for once he wanted to be alone and secondly, he knew that they would want to take things back for their families. The head of security protested but the protest was over ridden and Christopher went his way.
But as soon as Prince Christopher entered his room, he could smell something different in the suite. Narrowing his eyes, he took on an alert stance when the lights came on. And there stood the woman whose image had been appearing in front of his eyes this whole evening.
"Hello. Mr. Christopher. Come on in. I was waiting for you."
The girl had daring. Christopher could not help but be impressed. On their first meeting, she had ordered him to take off his pants. For their second, she had offered to arrange a date and now she had invaded his room.
Closing the door behind him, he walked into the room casually.
"Princess Jeannie.. What a pleasant surprise. You must have really missed me.."
"Don't call me that!" She snapped back at him before taking a deep breath, attracting his attention to a certain delightful part of her body.
Distracted he almost missed the question that she asked and had to ask her to repeat which she did, with much irritation," I asked, how do you know of my connection to the Isle of Argent?"
Sitting down on the couch in the suite, Christopher leaned back with leisure, spreading his arms over the back," Why don't you have a seat and we can talk. You can tell me how you managed to evade the high security of this hotel while I can tell you all about my sources."
Harrumphing, she bit out through gritted teeth," No thank you. I just want to know how you know this and why are you trying to black mail me."
"Me and blackmail? You are mistaken my beautiful. I don't just know of your connection but soon the whole world is going to. Hasn't your father been sending regular emissaries to convince you to return? How long do you think his patience will last? He is trying to get on your good side, but if his limits are tested, then soon the news will break out and you will be hog tied and taken back."
"Nonsense! I am a respectable Vice President of a big organization. Do you think it is going to be so easy to take me back without my permission?"
"Yes. Actually. See, the thing is, when your mother was sent here, she still had love for her husband and loyalty for her country. So she never became an official citizen of this country. And thus, you also remain a citizen of Isle Of Regent. As a result, as per the United Nations Treaty, your royal father can have you extricated from here with a click of his fingers."
Jeannie felt her heart still at this. No wonder the last time they ad almost threatened her. It seemed she had ben naive and slow in protecting herself. She would have to look into this and quickly ask some of her friends to help her get a citizen ship here. But before that," But how does all this bring you to date me? Whether I am a Princess or pauper, it should be of no concern to you. So why?"
"Because I am in love with you.."
