Chereads / Blood Quest-Destined Love / Chapter 2 - Prince William

Chapter 2 - Prince William

I never imagined the prince from the palace to be so handsome, always imagined them as monsters who drink human blood. " Are you okay miss? " The guard who previously tried attacking me apologizes and asks me if i was okay or not but it did not make me happy at all. Before i could say anything, i saw the prince use his sword and cut the guard in half. Blood started to pour all over and i finally saw the devilish side of him, his eyes got even more red. " I cannot be out in the sunlight for too long, so i will have to get back into my chariot. I apologize for what my man did to you, would you like to come with me into our castle? I would love to make you, my acquaintance. " Prince William smiles and tells me without hesitating. His smile is very enchanting but i can't really take a liking to it because his teeth are crooked and his voice is low but still pleasant and soothing. I thought he was a monster that attacked the guard a minute ago but now he looks like an angel. I became really nervous and my friend Emily noticed it, she immediately came to my side and told the prince that i was going to come. " My friend Anna is just nervous my lord, she will come with you. " She told him. He smiled at her and told her to come with him too. " You can continue with your work for now, i will send someone to pick you two up later tonight. " The prince left the market and everyone started to gather around us to ask what he told us as they could not hear anything from far. Emily was already getting frustrated so i grabbed her hand and pulled her along with me, saying that we needed to leave before some people start talking nonsense. Emily looked at me suspiciously as she tried to look through the crowd but she still followed me. We entered a church where we both sat down and started to grasp just what happened in our life. It all seemed like a dream to me, so i told Emily to pinch me and wake me up to reality. After that we both laughed hysterically while trying not to cry because what was happening was so unbelievable. After we stopped laughing and cried together for a while, we decided that maybe we should try something new. It wasn't something bad so we didn't regret it later on. We got back to our house and brought out the nicest dress we could find, of course Emily lends me one of hers as i did not have anything good with me. I wore a nice dress for the first time in my life, at least the parts i remember. After Emily spend so much time preparing me and make me look as good as possible, i became unrecognizable. I looked at the mirror and shocked to see just how much i have changed. " We got invited by the prince, it is not something very normal. He definitely had a crush on you, i will make sure that this goes somewhere, you just hit the jackpot. Look at you Anna, you look so gorgeous, i have never seen so beautiful like you, everyone in the royal palace will have a crush on you. " She told me with excitement. I cannot deny her claim as i was looking at the mirror, i really did look beautiful. I was wearing a black short dress, it went above my knees and had a big V neckline. There was lace in the sleeves, i wore black high heels that i usually don't wear. The whole outfit completed my appearance perfectly. We waited for some time and finally the chariot prince William was talking about knocks on our door. Emily opened it and a guard was already there waiting for us with a smile that made my heart flutter. This time Emily helped me to get inside, we bowed to each other and sat down on opposite seats of the chariot. There were five horses carrying the chariot, they all looked majestic. They started moving, heading to the main gate of the castle. The whole ride was silent except for the horses' hoof beats and the wind blowing in our faces. Emily said nothing throughout the trip. It was actually quite comfortable since we weren't talking, she just played with her fingers or took out some books and read. I just observed her and enjoyed her company. When we arrived at the entrance i saw that many servants and guards were standing there, holding torches and torches were placed at every corner of the walls. The torch light blinded me a little but after blinking a couple of times, i started to think what all those lights meant. Someone from the castle comes near our chariot and asked the rider who was sitting inside the chariot and he told them that it was two girl who were invited by prince William. We overheard them and found out that another prince was coming over to the castle and these guys were here to welcome the prince. We came in the wrong time but whatever, we got welcomed inside and when we got out of the chariot, we noticed the prince also enter in his gigantic chariot. He looked different than his brother prince William, he looked shorter but he seemed calmer. He was greeted by the guards at the entrance and soon he started to walk inside the castle, we stood and decided to give him the respect by bowing down. He stopped when he came in front of us, he smiled at us and asked who we were. " I am Emily and this is my friend Anna, we were invited by prince William into the castle, which is why we are here. " Emily and i were both very nervous and did not dare look directly into his eyes. Suddenly the prince grabbed one of my hands and got me close towards him. I panicked but then i felt warmth spreading from his hands to my whole body. Then i realized that he was giving me heat from his hands and that calmed me down and my fear slowly vanished. It was kind of weird to feel that but he has such a warm presence that i couldn't help but relax. " You look so beautiful, what is your name? Anna? "
