Irony

chapter 1

Arc's POV

My life has always been going the way I want, a lot of guys wishing to be in my shoes. This luxurious life isn't easy to come by, I should be so lucky that I am of royal blood.

"Are you listening to us?" My dad asked and the looks on his face showed he was angry.

" Yes sir" he didn't want to fight in front of his cabinet, not again.

" Your bride selection will start from Monday"

" Why?" I didn't expect it soon.

" What do you mean why?, Can't you see I am getting old."

" Dad it too early, I don't want to get married  now."

" You are the eldest son!"

" If it's because I am the eldest son, Lyon can take over. It's not like I am interested in this fucked up royalty. For God's sake this is  the 21st century." I angrily stood up hitting my chair and walked out of the room.

"You can't escape your destiny!" He shouted at my retreating back. "Don't follow me" jake my bodyguard fell in my steps escorting me out. " Didn't you hear what I said?" I stopped Turned to him

" Just like you heard your father. Expect what you give" Lisa my sister said coming inside.

" I do that need his presence stop questioning my authority." I gritted to her, it's not like she cared.

" You did something like that some minutes ago"

" If you want me to get married then go marry if you want to be the next successor fine. It's not like I was giving the crown prince on my will"

" You are the first son!" Her voice raised a little

" And you are the first born,I am second. I deserve to be surfing and going out with pretty ladies than bonding with men age my parent and grandparents because of civilians and boring citizens who doesn't give a shit weather I had breakfast?"

" But you were served breakfast this morning"

"Are you serious?"what kind of human doesn't get the sacarsm

" And it's all because of their hard work you are here in your fine clothes, healthy and the least is to takee throne and make good decisions for them?"

" I don't want to be the one up there, why don't you be the Queen yourself after all Queen Victoria and Elizabeth was a woman." Her hand fisted and colours can to her cheek" you are also scared that you'll  toyed with and left to die at the end ?" She pushed me and stepped forward

" Coward" she walked away not looking back. It's suffocating when everyone wants something from you and you aren't ready to give. She herself knows

"Coward" I muttered to myself walking the opposite direction she took. All I needed right now is some junkies and a good sleep then I'll go out racing. Something I do to keep lying safe. I turned the knob of my room and it's opened. I locked it pushing open the door a little, her scent hit my nose.
" Mom" I said before opening the door, another woman in one day. " Have you come to lecture me?, Cause I won't listen to you. " I fell on my bed grabbing a munch it " say what you want to say, I planned my schedule"

" The procession for a bride has started." I looked at her" open to all women of different caliber. Both Cinderella is invited"

" Who is Cinderella" I asked her as she rolled her eyes

" Go out there and find a wife, bring her to us and we will accept her. You have no excuse now"

" I don't want to be a king" I softly got to her side" I want to live my life my way, Lyon will be better "
