The Forgotten Prince Chapter 230

Chapter 230: Chapter 230

Rose noticed Zayne was annoyed but the look went away within seconds. "Are you upset by sothing or soone?" She asked, looking up at the group of n who remained in place.

"I am always upset when they are around. Fortunately, I have you to take my mind off of them. You look beautiful," Zayne complinted Rose.

If possible, her beauty grew each ti she ca to him or maybe he missed her dearly.

Rose fidgeted with her hair. "It is Anna’s hard work that you are seeing."

"It is not. A beautiful dress can only take you so far. You have a beauty that stands out dear sister," Anna said as she exited the carriage with Finn’s help. "Will they stare at us much longer? It is making

a bit uncomfortable."

"Would you like their eyes removed?" Zayne asked, eager to do it since their eyes upset soone else.

Anna regretted making any ntion of their eyes. "No, but thank you for being so kind to offer it."

Anna inched closer to Finn. She accepted Zayne as Rose’s partner but sothing about him still scared her. He had perfectly planned to take over a palace so there was a good reason to be cautious.

"Are you nervous?" Zayne inquired as Rose kept looking up at the n she didn’t need to pay much attention to. "Don’t think about them. I do not but just say the word and I will imprison them."

"You cannot do that," Rose whispered, fearing the n could hear what might be their fate.

"I can. They are here to act on behalf of our kingdom but I am a prince. They must listen to

and when they don’t I can punish them as I see fit. Keep that in mind," Zayne said, starting to lead Rose inside.

Rose expected introductions to be done but Zayne led her right past the n who weren’t very pleased about this. They were bound to dislike her even more when a proper introduction wasn’t done.

"This is unlike you, Prince Zayne."

Rose tried to look back when soone finally spoke up.

"You speak as though you know , Andrew."

Zayne continued inside since Rose didn’t need to speak to the group.

Rose got a glimpse of the hatred in their eyes when she looked back. It was terrifying but she had seen worse to not be so afraid of them. "What kind of power does the court hold?"

"They are like advisors to the king and they are tasked with looking over the concerns of the kingdom. They cannot imprison you, order you to do as they say, or hurt you. They must bring up the issue to my brother and he will make the final decision," Zayne answered.

Rose made a ntal note of this. ’Which one wants you to be king?"

"The man wearing red. It wouldn’t co as a surprise if he wanted

to marry your sister and rule this kingdom. I have no desire to beco king. It’s a pain in the ass job with too many people in your ear about what they want instead of what the kingdom needs. Still, if you wanted to rule this kingdom," Zayne said, willing to give Rose what she wanted.

"I do not and Willow is already doing her best to prepare for it. I have already started to envision a simple life for the two of us," Rose revealed.

Zayne wanted to hear more. "Have you? And what is in this simple life? Tell

all about it."

"Well," Rose looked down. It was ant to stay inside of her head. "You said you live in a quiet place away from the palace. It would just be the two of us there most of the ti and I might see so of your soldiers. We wouldn’t be disturbed by just anyone."

’Would it always be just the two of us?" Zayne inquired.

Rose was flustered as she thought of them having children. She didn’t want to think about it because then she had to face what kind of mother she might be. "I do not know."

"Wouldn’t you want a pet to keep you company when I am not around? There is a large bird cage I do not make use of or you can have a small dog like ladies have these days," Zayne suggested.

Rose was confused as she thought they were referring to sothing else. Were children not on his mind and she had jumped too far ahead? ’Of course, he wouldn’t an children. We are not married and I am not ready,’ she thought.

It wasn’t ti for them to think about marriage. A wedding was coming sooner than they wanted because of Victor.

Zayne read Rose’s expression. "I was speaking of children but I thought it scared you. We do not need to have a child soon but I was curious if it is sothing you have considered."

"Do you wish to have children at so point?" Rose asked, needing to know what he wanted.

"I have not thought of being a father as marriage was not sothing I had in mind. I want what you want and yes, at so point I would love for it to be more than just the two of us but if it is not sothing you want, I am fine with your decision. Truly," Zayne honestly replied.

He wouldn’t pressure her to have children like other wives would be pressured to do. He wasn’t the king to need heirs and considering he hadn’t thought of having a family before Rose, nothing would change.

"I do not know what I want when it cos to children. I will need to think about it. First, we must get through the wedding and see what our married life will be like. I am nervous," Rose confessed, a little embarrassed she was so nervous. "I am worried about what kind of wife I will be. Will I do my duties well or make you happy?’

"You are not alone in being nervous. I have things I worry about and I am most certain others in our position worry as well. Don’t think too much about change. What matters most is that we love each other. There are no duties I want from you as my wife other than for you to keep loving ," said Zayne.

What more could he want from Rose?

"You are too kind," Rose said, knowing she was lucky.

"You would prefer that I be rude?"

"No," Rose laughed. "Please stay as you are now."
