Its been a week since i made the deal with HIM. I'm beginning to think he backed out. Feeling discouraged i slide out of my bed and drag my self to papa's hallway again just in case i see him. I stood there staring at the painting of my great-great-great grand father. Mhm this guy takes his job seriously. Not a speck of dust anywhere. I was about to move to the painting of my great-great-great grandmother when suddenly put their hand over my mouth and pushes me into an empty room.
"Wad da hek"
"Huh" I bit the hand. "Ouch!"
I turn and see HIM squeezing his eyes in pain. This guy doesn't know how to handle a princess at all.
"WHY THE HELL DID YOU DRAG ME IN HERE?!!"
"Keep your voice down. I don't want the king to find me here with his little...princess", he said smirking at me. " And incase you forgot we made a deal—"
"You remembered", i whispered cutting him off. Thank God he remembered.
"Of course i remembered —"
"Then why did you take a week?", i demanded cutting him off. Again
"Well, if you could shut up and not interrupt me i would explain"
I kept quiet and continued glaring at him.
He looked shocked that i actually kept quiet but he recovered quickly
" i spent the week looking for all the available routes out of the mansion. One with no guards or staff or anything. And after searching– i even had to fill in someone's job to search but i eventually found one."
I couldn't help thinking that this guy is amazing. Except the attitude and lack of respect of course.
"So when is the first stake out?", i asked excitedly
" Saturday—"
"That's 2 days away", i cut him off. Again
"Wowww", he dragged. "You can count"
I just rolled my eyes." So why did you pick Saturday?"
"I know the guard on duty that night. He's name is Steven Rogers and he's a total light weight. One glass and he's out."
"Oh... So you're drugging him"
"What no... I'm just gonna spike his drink and do you want to get out or not."
"Yes i do", i reply quickly
"Good, your number"
I raise my eyebrows then smirk" are you trying to ask for my number?"
He looks confused then rolls his eyes. "Oh please, don't flatter yourself. I'm not enjoying talking to you more than i have to"
I scoff but give him my number either way.
"So how will—", i stop hearing footsteps. I quickly leave the room and see FaHaye passing.
" Your highness". He greets looking skeptically at the door.
"Hi Fahaye", i say with a strained voice
"Would you like a walk round the garden?"
"No thanks"
"Well what kind of gentleman would i be if i left the princess all by her self in this empty hallway", he said with a sly smile.
Argh he knew something was up
Knowing he's not going to leave i give in i give him a tight smile. "You know what, a walk in the garden seems to be exactly what i need"
