My cold but sweet guard

CHAPTER FOUR

     MICHEAL'S POV...

      I covered my eyes with my arm as I lay on my bed.Ugh,why'd I tell him all of that shit?What is wrong with me.He was now going to use that all against me.I groaned.Why was I always this naive?I heard my bedroom door open and Adelina,Avice and Elena walked in.''Little brother...what's wrong?''Avice cooed as she jumped unto my bed and cuddled me.

    ''Nothing''I mumbled to myself.Adelina and Avice sat on my bed and stared at me worriedly.''Just leave.I wanna be alone.Avice let me go and sat up.They eventually left me to my thoughts.

     I sighed in frustration.Why is my life shit? I tossed and turned on my bed hoping to fall asleep and forget about what happened today.The next day,I went for a walk in the gardens early that morning to clear my headache.As I walked passed the flowers,I brushed my hands against them sighing to myself.

      I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.''Are you okay?You seemed bothered yesterday''.I swiftly turned around and almost gasped.''What on earth do you want?''.''To talk to you''.Sir Dominic held out his hand for me to take.

      I brushed his hand away and scoffed.''I have nothing to talk to you about''I lashed at his as I walked past him.He grabbed my wrist.''Please...''.I pulled my wrist away and ran off.''I just can't do this right now''I whispered to myself.I was running through the halls when I heard my name right behind a large door;my father's meeting room.

      I pressed my ear against the door and listened in.''Your Majesty,the prince is already of age''.''He's just 19.I shall not send him to this war.NEVER!''.''You don't have a choice''.I couldn't make out all the voices but one I could make out was my father's.

       ''I guess...I have no choice''.My eyes widened in horror.I kept listening to the conversation trying not to make a sound.I walked back to my room with a disoriented expression.What is all this?To be crowned the title of 'Crowned Prince'I have to participate in this war.What?.

      I couldn't blame my dad for making that decision.I didn't know a tear fell out of my eyes until I felt a warm hand wipe my tear with his thumb.I turned around and stared at Sir Dominic.''Why are you crying?''.I slapped his hand away and scoffed''I.am.not.CRYING!''I screamed at him and walked off.''Leave me alone''

    I closed my bedroom door behind me and took quick deep breaths.This was all too much to process and take in.I sat on the floor and ran my hand through my raven black hair.I have a responsibility that no one else can do but I'm reluctant to do this.What should I do?
