SOULS INTERTWINED

Chapter-15

Williams POV

It's been a week since I came back from the hospital to princess's place, and she has taken such good care of me, and I am very thankful for her support. The doctor had come every alternate day to check up on me, and he said I had tremendous healing. Without princess, I would have been a living mess; in the start, I could not even eat on my own, Princess has fed me food throughout my stay here, and she also made delicious food for me; her soups are the best. In high school, I could not even imagine that I would be falling hard for Cassandra, and ever since I have known Cassandra, she was Ethan's girlfriend. Princess has changed a lot, and it's towards the good side; now, she is more compassionate and has an excellent focus and passion for her career. During my stay here, I used to rest in the bed and complete my work and princess used to draw her sketches on the couch adjacent, and I could see that she was very dedicated towards her career. Princess has made me fall in love with her, and the more time I spend with her, the more I fall for her; she made me realise people can give love, and as far as I remember, my mother was the last and only person who had shown affection towards me; It was ages ago, and princess is soo affectionate towards me, which makes me very happy. Why is she doing all of this for me? She says I did a lot more, but I'm clueless by what she means? I'll ask her soon. Princess started to call me wonderboy, and I'm delighted by her endearment, but I want to know why she chose that endearment for me.

Cassandra: "wonderboy, what are you thinking."

William:" nothing much, princess, just thinking about a person who means a lot to me."

Cassandra: "may I know who?"

William: "You princess," he says seriously

Cassandra: "the biggest joke of the year."

William: "I meant it, princess." I said with a sad face

Cassandra: "oh really" she was a bit shocked, but I could see the satisfied smile on her face

William: "either way, princess, now that I'm doing fine. I think I will have to go back home," I said with a sad face

Cassandra: "you sure, William?"

William: "I have to continue with my regular life princess, I can't leave a multi-billion dollar company to lay eggs" she started to laugh loud

Cassandra: "Okay, but I would visit you daily."

William: "I would love to see you every day, and princess, can I see your sketches once you have never shown me your sketches."

Cassandra: "for sure, William," she said before she reached her sketchbook and handed it over to me.

Looking at the sketches, I can say that princess is very talented and I am damn sure she will become very successful. I saw how her colour palette is very classy, elegant primarily consists of royal and pastel colours. The products she designed looked modern, simple but they had elegance and class, which would make them very noticeable.

William: "impressive, princess." I winked

Cassandra: "they are not that impressive." she said with a low tone

William: "why do u keep on underestimating yourself?" I asked her raising my eyebrows

Cassandra: "my past wonderboy, it keeps on haunting me." she said sadly

William: "princess, can I ask you something personal," I asked hesitantly

Cassandra: "yes, William." she asked, confused

William: "the other day when we were at the hospital, the day you fainted, I was taking care of you, and suddenly I heard you talk in your sleep."

Cassandra: "what did I say?" she asked, confused

William: "something about Ethan, Your mum and a baby and also about Carter." I said recollecting

Cassandra: "Oh shit."

William: "you can only tell me if your comfortable, princess," I said, tucking her hair behind her ear

Cassandra: "William" before he could complete, I intertwined my palm into her

William: "it's fine, princess, whenever you are comfortable."

Cassandra: "I want to tell you, William, but please assure me you won't judge me."

William: "never, princess, I will never judge you." I assured her and tightened my grip on her arms

Cassandra: "William, once we all graduated gig school, me and Ethan took our relationship to another level, and after a few months, I got to know I was pregnant with his baby, and I was happy cause we always planned a future together. When I went to Ethan to tell him the happy news, I saw him on his bed with two other girls naked, and my world had crashed down right there. When I asked him why he cheated on me, he told me I was just one of his many conquests, and he was playing with me. I felt very dumb to trust such a man, and he had used me. When  I told him about the baby, he slapped me and asked me to get an abortion, and he also said that he never saw me as his wife cause I'm too vanilla. Ethan made me feel used and useless, and because of him, I had lost all my self-esteem, which led me to depression. Because of heavy depression, I tried to suicide, but I stopped myself because of my baby, whose father does not acknowledge him. When I told my mom about the situation, she has tried to force me to get an abortion, and when I rejected her, she gave me sedatives and made the doctors abort my baby. The pain after the abortion was awful, and I was feeling shallow because I could not protect my baby and William; with these hands, I had killed an innocent baby that did not even see the light."

she was slapping herself my now and was sobbing, and I tried to comfort her by taking her into a hug, and she still was continuing

"and William, after I lost my baby, I had started to stay alone and silent in my room, and no one except Arthur and my grandmother cared for me. After a few days, my parents set me up with Carter. Carter and I started badly, but we fell in love; at least, I thought we did. He treated me better than Ethan. I had fallen in love with him, but Carter said I was not up to his level standard, and he said he was in a relationship with another girl who was prettier, smarter than me, and he also said she was up to his standards, unlike me. His words had hurt me very much, and they made me feel very ugly, dumb and worthless. After the Carter incident, my parents blamed me for not holding him onto me and said they were ashamed to have me as their daughter. Arthur and I could not take their sadism anymore, so we escaped and came to Monaco with the help of my grandmother."

I saw Cassandra's beautiful eyes, and I saw they were bulged and filled with sorrow. I was happy she had opened up to me, but I felt sad for her; she went through a lot at such a young age, man. That fucking Ethan and Carter have broken my fragile princess, and I will make sure that they both will feel bad for what they had done to my princess. Ethan could have been superior to me in High school, but now I'm William Edward Smith, and I will make sure he will get what he deserves. That man disgusts me, and he will face the consequences. I understand, princess; I know how it feels to lose someone who you love and how hard it is for a person to withstand such harsh situations all alone.
First, I wanted princess to feel she is the most precious person in the world, and I will try my level best to make her mine and give her the world which she truly deserves. I wanted to take out the pain from her, and I did not know what to do, so I cupped Cassandras's face between my palms and kissed her juicy lips.
