"How are you so weak? Who faints after receiving one punch on the cheek?" Eleanor said pressing a cold pack on Leo's cheek. "Hey are you not going to apologise for hitting me?" Leo replied, pouting like a child. Eleanor scoffed. The 3 guys and the 2 girls were at their classes after Leo silently signalled them to leave.

"Ouch!" Leo winced as Eleanor tried putting an ointment on his cheeks. "Why is the ointment so spicy?" Leo asked as he felt his cheek getting hot. "I don't know, here's what I used" Eleanor said handing Leo the ointment while pressing the cold pack on his cheeks. "This is an ointment for stomachaches!" Leo yelled as he wiped his cheeks aggressively, wincing at the pain of the bruise.

"In my defence, I know nothing about medicine. I just took that bottle because it looked cute" Eleanor said raising her arms. Leo sighed, already expecting this coming from someone who grew up like a princess as Eleanor continued pressing the cold pack on his cheek. "I have a question, do you not keep track of the kingdom's members of royalty?" Leo asked looking at Eleanor who somehow looked innocent. "No. I only keep track of the Business World. I just knew Jonathan and Johannah by chance. Then Jonathan introduced me to Leander and Samuel" Eleanor said.

"It does make sense" Leo said as he grabbed Eleanor's hands. "What? What make sense?" Eleanor asked as Leo shaked her arms aggressively. "Well nothing I'll see you tomorrow" Leo said, standing up and casually walked out of the infirmary leaving Eleanor all confused.

"Nicholas we've talked about this before, you are to be married at 21 to Duke Millington's daughter but you're 22 now" the King, Philip Stephen Kingsley said to Leo who rolled his eyes. The king had just finished giving him a lecture about the bruise on his face. He lied saying he fell while running around causing his cheeks to bruise up. Then the king proceeded to talk about his marriage.

"Father, I told you so many times Johannah and me. We just don't like each other" Leo replied and sat down on his study desk, folding his arms. "Nicholas Leonardo Kingsley, listen to your father" the Queen, Selena Maude Kingsley said as she glared at Leo. "Mother" Leo laughed nervously as he stood up.

"I won't marry Johannah and that's final!" Leo said trying to sound stern but both of his parents weren't budging. "Fine. If you can find another suitable wife candidate then you won't have to marry Johannah" the king said as he smirked knowing Leo doesn't have any other girl friends except for Johannah.

"I do actually. She's the most perfect person to be crowned Princess. Not only is she from a very wealthy family but she's also very beautiful and graceful. Her feminine futures just pulls me in and I just love how soft spoken and respectful she is" Leo said exaggerating everything but sighed knowing the king wasn't buying it. "Then tell me what's her family name?" The king said totally unamused by what his 3rd son just said. Leo blinked his eyes taking a deep breath trying to think of someone when he suddenly saw the  bruise on his face on the reflection of the grandfather clock.

"Her last name is Lockhart" Leo blurted out not knowing what he just got himself into. "Why would a Lockhart even want to talk to you?" the king said doubting him. He knew the Lockhart's were some filthy rich family with a stone cold heart and his son was a total douche. "Ouch father, that hurts don't you think?" Leo replied dramatically hitting his chest.

"Even if she is a Lockhart, then tell us what is her full name" the queen said curious about who Leo was talking about. "You better not be lying Nicholas" the king warned him as Leo smiled. "Her name is Eleanor Lucianna Lockhart" Leo said with a smirk as his parents mouth opened in shocked. "You met Eleanor again?" the Royal Princess, Eloise Isabella Kingsley said excited.

"You were eavesdropping!" Leo yelled.

"I'm doomed" Leo said looking at the Lecturer who was explaining things on the screen. "What happened now Leo?" Samuel said totally unamused knowing so much, Leo is gonna pull all of them into the trouble he caused. "I told my parents I will marry Lady Lockhart" Leo said pulling his hair in frustrations. "Are you crazy!" Jonathan yelled standing up, while hitting the table catching the attention of everyone in the lecture hall.

"Lord Millington, please take a seat" the lecturer said as Jonathan apologies and sat down.

"So what are you planning to do?" Leander asked looking at him with a calm expression. "How are you calm during situations like this?" Leo asked admiring Leander's personality. "Because I am not the one who's in trouble" Leander replied with a calm voice as Leo bit his lip frustrated at his personality. "You know the saying, there is a dragon in calm waters? You really shouldn't talk to Leander when it comes to problems" Samuel said shaking his head as Leander gave out a lazy smile.

"So what are you planning to do Leo?" Jonathan asked after calming down a little. "I'm gonna use my authority as a Prince to get her to marry me" Leo said after thinking for awhile. "You do realise she has everything right? Money wouldn't impress her" Jonathan replied with a serious face.

"But the title of Princess would" Leo said and smirked feeling very confident about being apart of royalty.
