I flushed brightly as I stared up at the Prince. I could feel a thousand people’s eyes on right now because we’re in public. I instinctively stepped back, but a grip on my waist pinned in place.
"Ah... Sloan, people are watching." I pointed out while my cheeks burned.
"Ignore them." He responded without missing a beat and I almost let out a groan. That was easier said than done. I couldn’t ignore them, not when I grew up always being conscious of people and also able to feel their eyes on despite backing them.
When it was obvious that the prince wasn’t relenting, I let out a small sigh before rising on my tippy toes and kissing his cheek.
When he pulled away, he was laughing a little and the sound ward my insides a little right as his arm settled over my shoulder again. "That wasn’t a kiss, little one."
"But I’ll drop it for now. Next ti, I’ll kiss you myself in public." He told as we resud walking and my heart pounded away while his words danced around the insides of my chest over and over again. Was that supposed to be a threat? Or a promise? I couldn’t be sure, but I just know that my stomach fluttered and I didn’t grow scared or nervous. Instead, I wanted said next ti to co again so he could kiss himself, because he was so good at it.
When it cos to kissing, I have a lot to say compared to him, and I hope that my inexperience wouldn’t turn him away or make him irritated at so point. I’ve just not been opportune to practice before. In my forr kingdom, being together with boys was forbidden, and I was better attracted to girls, and I was also in a disguise my entire life, so my only kiss in my entire life was with Malachi, and that had scared so much because he was my half brother.
Now that I was thinking about Malachi again, I wonder if he’s still in that prison that our uncle ordered for him to be locked up in. Or has he been freed? After our father died, who is presently on the throne? Our cruel uncle or Malachi?
I’d definitely like to know all that is currently happening back at ho. Here, cell phones exists. People use it to call each other and send each other ssages. Back at ho, nothing like that existed— you need a physical ssenger to deliver your ssages for you, or a bird to travel with it.
When Sloan and I drew up to the outsides of the slave quarters, my insides started to tighten up with nerves and I swallowed emptily as I glanced over at the prince.
"Are you coming in there with ?" I asked slowly and when the prince nodded, my heartbeat picked up again.
"Yes, of course. I need to have a word with those seniors of yours that refused to assign you to ." He declared and I stiffened even more. I had completely forgotten when I told him all that, but apparently it was clear that he still rembered.
"Ah... I don’t think that is necessary, Sloan." I began after a mont and the prince frowned down at .
"That would only bring more attention my way and it might end up harming . I wish to be on a low, out of sight and barely noticeable. So far, everyone notices now and it’s tiring. If you go in there with , I’m sure it would cause more harm than good..." I mumbled as I stared at the prince.
"Hm," the prince stated and I took that as a good sign.
)
"Yes! I’ll co over to visit tomorrow even though I don’t get assigned to serve you, so it’s all gonna be good." I continued and the prince let out a long sigh.
"Fine."
"Just don’t forget to co over tomorrow, okay?" He said and I nodded fast. I’d never forget. That was sothing I was already looking forward to from this very mont.
"Oka." He reached out to briefly stroke my cheek. "See you tomorrow, little one."
When he turned and walked away this ti, I stared at him till I couldn’t see his back anymore.
When I turned around and made my way into the slave quarters, I was surrounded almost imdiately by the slaves, and by what they were all screaming at the Sa ti, it was clear that they’d heard what the Prince did to Prince Zade, because of .
Oh god.
So much for wanting to blend in with the crowd and keep a low profile.
After Jake successfully managed to pull out of the pile of crowd this ti, he tugged close and sniffed at my throat.
"You sll strongly of soone, and... arousal." He stated without flinching and my cheeks quickly colored as I covered my face in embarrassnt.
"Who was it?" He asked as he laughed but I was too shy to spill, so I said it was nothing.
He kept pestering to spill, but I absolutely refused.

When Damien ca to get that night, he took straight to the bald headed man this ti, who instantly complinted for a job well done, saying it was clear the prince was talking for even more, for him to have beaten his cousin up for .
I want to point out to them that I didn’t do anything, and that I wished they stopped having anything to do with because I really don’t wanna work for them, especially since it ant I’d be against the prince.
"Try making him fall more in love with you." One of the two won instructed and I didn’t know how to tell them that I wasn’t even doing anything at all.
I felt very sick to my stomach, and guilty as hell, because this feels like I’m betraying the Prince who clearly wants to protect from all that he had done just today.
What kind of ss am I presently in and how do I get out of it?
