One In A Million [Felix X Reader] COMPLETED

Special Short ONESHOT

Royal AU

ITALICS (YN) BOLD (FELIX)

I just need to find the exit of this stupidly humongous castle then I'll be able to get back to the mansion.

Where the hell is the god damn exit of this annoying castle!?

Never in a hundred years am I going to get use to this kind of get up, everything feels so tight.

So much for dressing up in all these layers of cloth, no one even looked at me! Fucking heels!

Is it this way?

I wanna go home.

"My Lord!"

"Milady!"

Back to the ballroom, from where they started from. Their eyes matched and the music began, the waltz of heart thumping trumpets and violins.

"My Lord, the Grand Duke of Weston would like for you to visit him."

"Lady YN, the second son of the Imperial Family, Prince Ross, is asking for you in the rooms."

So far and yet so near, their distance grew apart. They were on each side of the room by the large open doors.

What the hell does that flirt want from me now?!

The Duke of Weston? Don't tell me it's another marriage proposal.

FELIX

Arriving at the Weston Estate, the Grand Duke personally welcomed me inside.

"Welcome to my home, Sir Felix. Was the ride here comfortable? I apologize for suddenly taking you away from the party at Duchess Lea's." warm, much like the hugging embrace of a parent, his voice was something soothing to hear. You can see the visible lines of age on his face but still, Duke Weston is just as handsome to none.

"No need to apologize, I was on my way to leave anyway. The ride was nice and steady I thought I was falling asleep on the way." He laughs at my reply.

"I'm relieved to hear that. Let's head to my study to continue our talk, shall we?"

He orders his maids to serve us refreshments and snacks. Duke Weston's home always feel like one's haven. I've stayed a couple of times here before because I used to take lessons about chivalry from him.

The study, piles of books on one corner and furniture and neat shelves on the rest. We sat on the couches destined in the middle of the room, much like any interior of a study or an office. The windows seep in moonlight and the candles hanging from walls and standing on tables lit the room well and clear.

"So, I'll get straight to the point here. I'm quite desperate and running short in time Sir Felix." his tone and expression changes in a snap, his brows almost connected and her touched his lips with his gathered hands.

"You must marry my daughter."

I guessed right.

"Duke Weston, may I ask why you are rushing your daughter's marriage? Does she know of your plans?" I calmly asked. He sighs heavily and sits back. You can see the frustration on his shoulders.

"No, which makes me even more worried. It's not that I'm sick or anything but it's for her sake. I'm afraid that... the Princes' of the Imperial family might take advantage of her."

The Imperial Family? Now that's unexpected but most likely. In order to guarantee the growth and further success of the Kingdom, the royal children of the Imperial family will surely marry those of from strong and influential houses.
