Heaven Alizah Dianne's pov :
I knocked on the door and Hiro opened it. He smiled upon seeing me. "Nice to meet you your majesty" he bowed playfully. "Oh cut it out. Don't do that again" l said. He chuckled and signed for me to come in. I nodded and entered their house. As the king's second in command, he also leaves in the palace. Their home is very beautiful and pleasant. Everything in the palace is pleasant except the king. Okay, l'm bullying him in my mind right now. But who knows, maybe he is bullying me in his mind too or worse, already killing me. I can tell that he hates the fact that he has to trick his kingdom in order to keep the throne. But that is not my fault either. Why is he being mad at me?. "He is trying not to" said my spirit Flora. Yeah whatever. He should try harder.
"Feel free to ask for anything. You are an honored guest here" said Hiro, pulling me out of my thoughts. I turned to him and smiled.
"Thank you Hiro but l'm just here for Angel. I appreciate the gesture though. And by the ways, you have a very beautiful place".
"Thank you. But it's not as beautiful as you" he said.
I chuckled, "you are such a charmer. Angel is so lucky to have you"
" No, l'm lucky to have her. Speaking of her, l'll go and inform her that you are here". I nodded and he left. I sat down and wait. After a few minutes , Angel came, without Hiro though.
"Heaven you are here at last. I thought you wouldn't come since the announcement is tonight. But it's okay we could still make it before that" she said. "And that's why l am here" l said.
Angel took her car keys. "Okay let's go but remember l'm buying. So you don't have to pay for anything" she said with finality. I nodded my head. There is no need to argue with her.
When we got to the gate, the soldiers bowed to us when they saw us approaching. "We are going out" Angel said simply.
"His majesty ordered that she is not allowed to leave the palace" the head guard pointed at me.
"How dare you point at her. She is your future queen" Angel said seriously. "Your majesty, please forgive me" he quickly bowed to me and all of the them bowed. See what power can do. I signed for them to stand up and they did.
"We'll be back in a short while" said Angel. He nodded his head and signed for the others to open the gates. Angel and l smiled, and with that we left the palace.
"Why didn't you just let us teleport out of the palace instead making us pass through them" l asked.
"They have to know who their queen is. And l was hoping we would cross path with that bitch Samantha. I want to use the chance to talk sense into her one last time. And l'm definitely not going to her house to do that" she said.
" To be honest, l don't see any use in trying to talk sense into her when she has already made up her mind. No matter how many ways you try to pass a message, if the receiver doesn't want to hear it, he will never understand it" l said. She sighed and started to drive. She was quiet throughout the drive. She must be thinking about Sam, what's their deal?. Anyways that's none of my business.
When we got to the shopping mall. Angel just kept on buying this and that. She bought a lot of cosmetics and beauty products for me. I told her that l don't need them but she insisted on buying them. We are demons which means that beauty is in us, we are beautiful whether we like it or not . So we don't need beauty products. She bought me a lot of dresses and shoes as well. After about two hours of shopping we are finally done.
We drove back to the palace, with a lot of shopping bags in our hands. We still have three more hours before the announcement. Angel and l said good byes and went back to our respective homes.
When l got to my room, I dropped all the bags on the floor and fall on the bed. It was only two hours but l really enjoyed myself. Even though we spent most of it buying things we don't need. I chuckled to myself when l remembered Angel's face. Tonight is gonna be long night. I wonder what future lies ahead after tonight.
