The Princess's Affection

Chapter Ten

Princess's POV

I knew lying to Bianca that I was going on a business trip without her being there was a semi-truth because I was going to see my mother in the oceans, where I had come from. So, I left the earth and my house because Bianca's prayers were affecting me, and I needed to leave in order to get my powers and come up with a plan to stop her from praying in the night.

Mother told me to end her life and do what she had asked me to do to her. But I refused and left for a couple of days while one of my servants turned into me, taking care of my job while I was here on the waters, retrieving my powers, and making plans.

I started falling in love with Bianca after a couple of months of working with her, at my office and living together in my house. I was missing her while I stayed here for her benefits, because if I stayed any longer at the house, I would have done something to her that I would have regretted.

The cuddles, the attention that she gave to me, the smiles, and everything about her made me like her more than I did. I watched her every day and made sure that she ate well while I went on my business trip, she thought that I went to.

Nothing ever felt the same while I was here, when all these greedy people wanted more than they could give and when they didn't feel like it was necessary. Death was probably an option if they refused, and we don't beg you to join us. They come to us, and when they are tired, they believe that the next exit is to leave.

They lie to themselves, and we always ask them why they wanted to join and what would happen if they refused to stay. They would use their fucking mouths to say, death should be given to them. I was tired of them all, but she brought more smiles and happiness to me than the rest.

She was quite different from the people who I came across with her, and I knew that she didn't like me like I did, but I hoped that she would like and love me and remove me from my delusions that I had felt with her.

You don't blame a girl like me for falling in love with her. She was really what I wanted, and I did miss her and wish that the two days that I was spending here would come to a climax. So, I could get to see my angel again and maybe have a word with her about how she had to reduce the way she prayed around here.

The two days that I spent here, finally came to an end, and I drove to where she was. When I got home, she ran to where I was and hugged me. Fuck, my heart skipped a beat, and I nearly started thinking about how much that hug meant to me when it was just a friendly hug.

Welcome back, she said. And how was the project going, and have you finally thought about the design that would suit the house?

Yes, I did. Let me rest, and then I will discuss the design with you and how I would want it, I said.

Oh, okay, do have your rest first, and if you need anything, just let me know, she said to me.

Sure, she told me, and she helped me with my travel bag, taking it upstairs for me and dropping it off in my room.

Thanks, I said to her. I had a long day, and did you cook or prepare something to eat? I am so famished.

Yeah, I did prepare something for you, she said. Dishing the food out on the plate and serving me with a warm glass of water and red wine on the table

Thanks love, fuck goodness, I was worried for a second there wasn't any food, I said. I thought about ordering food for myself if there wasn't any food in the kitchen for me to eat. You're a life saver, and thanks so much once again.

You're welcome, she said. Eat the food before it gets cold, and enjoy your meal. Bon appetite, girlfriend, and excitedly, she left me to have my alone time and left for her room.

If you need anything, she called out. You can come to my room, when you have rested properly, then we can discuss about it.

Oh, okay, dear, I said to her, as she closed her door after that. While I had time to think about everything, after I was done eating, I cleared the tables and washed the plates that I used to eat with.

Then, I went to my room and slept for a few hours before waking up and going to Bia's room to discuss business and see her also. When I got there, I knocked on the door, and she said that I should come in. I entered the room, walked to her bed, and sat down.

I took pictures of the house, showed her how every layer of the house looked, and showed her the designs that I had finalised with the client for their house.

We need to call in those who would be able to finish this job and not run away after paying them. Make sure that you call this one that I have selected and inform them to come to our house to have a meeting with me.

Maybe we should look at the house and decide what we would want to do with the interior decor of the house. So, we stayed all through the night, checking all the other designs in case something came up when we got through with the work on our hands.

I called it a day and went back to my room to sleep for the remaining hours. But when I tried sleeping, Bia accidentally barged into my room and apologised afterwards.

Sorry, she said. But I wanted to ask you for a favour before you went to bed. Sorry, this sounds a bit far when you are tired. But I want you to come attend a church programme at my church this Sunday.

You will love it when you do attend church on Sunday. I promise you that the service will be amazing, and you will enjoy it.

But you know that I am not a Christian, right? I asked her. Going to church and you praying has been disturbing me these days, and I can no longer accept it, I said.

Oh, okay, I am sorry, but I will stop praying loudly at night if that makes you uncomfortable. But can you, please, for the only time, attend this one event and if you don't like it, I will never force you again.

And I looked at her for a while and foolishly uttered the word yes. When I did say it, my mother was furious at me for agreeing and accepting her terms. But you don't blame a girl who was really in love with her.

Thank you, she said, hugging me. Goodnight, she uttered before exiting my room and entering hers.

What have I done now? I thought. Why did I accept her offer? I feel so stupid now. Please, mother, help me out this coming Sunday, and I also needed to caution Bia about inviting me to her church activities ever again. I was not interested in it one bit and tossed all throughout the night before finally sleeping.
