Alessandro questioned me again by saying why were you looking at me . I just blurted out that was my first time meeting him up close and that I was just curious about the reason he was present at the store. I was doomed like what kind of excuse was that . He told me to stop my fucked up obsession with him , to refrain from sending him gifts ever again and to not stalk him anymore while I was just looking at him dumbfounded. He got in the store and took a seat next to his sister while I was just standing in front of the shop speechless at the sight of his arrogance I get that he is handsome but he is just to self obsessed . Charlotte walked out of store holding her little brother in her arms and started teasing me immediately . According to her I had a fat crush on Alessandro and even stalked him a few times. Now, I at least know the reason behind his unexpected reaction to my stares and yeah he wasn't arrogant, I was the problem apparently. My thoughts were interrupted by 3 year old cutie pie whose name is Damian if you are wondering whining that he wanted ice cream. I took him from his sister arms and we began searching for an ice cream shop . We entered the first ice cream shop that we found and took three ice creams . Charlotte took a strawberry flavored ice cream, Damian took a chocolate flavored one and I took a mango flavored ice cream. Then we went back home. Three days after my encounter with the crown prince, my dress arrived. It was stunning and my mother fell in love with it fairy style design while my brothers and my father couldn't stop complimenting my looks when I was wearing it as it was enhancing my natural beauty . Anyways I had to accompany my brothers to the royal palace because I promised them to earlier this week. When we arrived and entered through the garded gate,I was mesmerized by the luxurious ,classy and modern architecture that was used to build this palace and which was even fancier than our residence. I met princess Alina who seemed to recognize me while we were on our way to actually enter the palace as we were in the palace garden which held a whole collection of rare flowers and trees that were very well maintened according to their state, the lively and joyful vibe they portrayed the garden with and their flagrant scent that enchanted me, I greeted her but she ignored me . I didn't mind it anyway she is a child, she can be petty. Just then my brothers declared that I should maybe just stay with the princess and keep her company while they did whatever business they came here for . I just nodded, I did rather stay with her highness Alina then face that self obsessed jerk Alessandro. At first she refused to talk to me , but after an hour of trying to make her talk, she finally gave up and spoke :
_ Won't you shut up yet ?
A few minutes later, she asked me if I knew how to draw and paint , I nodded as I didn't want "to annoy her with my voice". She then challenged me to win against her in a one hour art competition that consisted of drawing the marvelous scenery that stood behind the palace and paint it. I'm not the kind of individual to refuse a challenge so I accepted without any hesitation. The challenge started and she used a magical spell to count the one hour time limit. We were drawing and painting when we heard laughter approaching us. My brothers were walking toward us alongside that cold ass jerk and that's when I heard the spell announcing that one hour have passed. Both Alina and I have put our brushes down after the one hour deadline, she then proceeded to ask my brothers and her's to be the judges . She asked them to turn around so that she could change the painting emplacements on the table to refrain them from knowing which one is whose . She seemed mesmerized with my drawing skills at the second her eyes fell on my painting. Anyways I won two to one . One vote was Henry's meanwhile the second vote was Alessandro's . That jerk voted for me isn't that incredible !?! And even more shocking Alina didn't seem upset she even asked if she could keep my painting and I accepted upon seeing the passion and admiration that her eyes reflected.I was being interrogated by my brothers on the origines of my hidden talent .They started walking away after some minutes of trying to make me talk and I almost tripped trying to get up from my seat to catch up with them and try to convince them to not say a word about it to our parents when two muscular veiny hands circled around my waist saving me from probably breaking a bone or two . I had butterflies in my stomach but I still turned around slightly blushing to thank the person that saved me when I realized that it could be none another then Alessandro, I guess I realized that a bit too late because we kind of engaged in an intimidating eye contact and let me just describe how his red bloody eyes held such a cold powerful and charismatic stare to the point that it almost made me freeze to death but still managed to make me lose control over my knees and become a blushing mess.Anyways the moment became kind of awkward after his sister asked us if we are going to stay in that typical romance novel position . As the warmth of his hands that lost hold of my waist disappeared disappointment flushed inside of my heart, but I still managed to vanish withing the second not showing any of it because of the second hand embarrassment I was experiencing . I finally joined my brothers who were waiting in the enormous carriage which had our glorious family emblem on its sides after I calmed down.
My Pov:
I still don't like Alessandro but I kind of appreciate the maturity he showed through saving me from falling even tho he didn't hold me in the best place in his heart.
