Stay With Me

Chapter eleven: Suddenly feelings

The marriage laws of the ruling family played a prominent role in preserving the royal lineage and ensuring its continuity.

Alex's marriage to Lisa, as she is a member of his royal family, was organized with great care, as this union was considered a strategic step to preserve the purity and continuity of the lineage.

The Lisa family is among the families with a noble history and strong origins, and marriage was not only a way to strengthen the unity of the royal family, but also a way to balance and satisfy the elders of the ruling family and ensuring that marriage contributes to strengthening the internal relations of the empire.

With this wise choice, the Alex family's aspirations for the future have been fulfilled, as this marriage represents an important step in the journey of preserving Classy lineage and ensuring its continuation with dignity and its glorious history.

Amidst Alex's calmness, which was noticed by the audience, and despite his apparent lack of interest in the huge wedding that included it, he smiled with a humble smile, as this smile was a small step, but it expressed his understanding of the importance of this event for his mother, the Duchess.

Although his interests may have been elsewhere, Alex decided to show his respect and appreciation for his mother with this smile.

He knew that this marriage not only represented a strategic alliance, but was also an expression of family unity and imperial traditions.

As for Lisa, sitting majestically among the dignitaries, she enjoyed her moments as she elegantly crossed one leg over the other, and smoothly used the fingers of one palm to hold the cup of luxurious tea she was tasting.

She was radiant in the audience, and her charm was irresistible, which was the image that Lisa painted.

Everyone expects her marriage to Alex to be fruitful for her status, as they already consider her an icon in the empire.

This marriage promises to raise her value and status in the social and political circle, which increases people's interest in her.

While the moments of happiness and brilliance continue, everyone watches with anticipation the developments in the relationship between Lisa and Alex and her birth of a child with Alex, and how this marriage will contribute to enhancing the reputation of the beautiful princess and later making her a symbol of power and elegance in the empire.

Elsewhere, Rose was holding her sleeping cat and peering through her window at fireworks racing across the night sky.
While color and light played in the sky, Rose continued to enjoy the quiet moments of the moment, like sea water at sunset.

Suddenly, I paid attention to the words of one of the maids who was talking about Alex.
Although she was initially indifferent, the few words about his marriage cast a shadow of confusion on her face.

She held her hand tightly and opened a window to get rid of the annoying whispers.

Rose witnessed the vanity of the moment, and when the wind blew, her locks blew elegantly but when she saw her tears falling, she found herself surprised.

As she tried to explain this emotional breakdown, she smiled and lowered her head toward the ground.

"I am nothing, so why am I crying?" She whispered her words, smiled uncontrollably and tried to cope with the overwhelming emotions without understanding their roots.

When the wedding party was over, Alex and Lisa headed towards their room.

As they walked, Lisa gently held Alex's hand and smiled, "I'm very happy, Prince. It's a wonderful moment, right?"

Alex did not respond with a word, but merely nodded.
They arrived at their room, but before Lisa could start preparing for the shower, Alex went to the window, opened it, and lit a cigarette.

He looks up at the dark sky full of stars, as if searching for answers in the depths of the night.

Lisa didn't care about his distant behavior and went to take a shower.

While she was preparing herself, Alex sat contemplating the night, when suddenly he muttered a girl's name, "Rose."

There was a moment of silence that enveloped the room, as Alex's thoughts merged with the cigarette smoke.

She let the words fly in the air like stars whose mystery changed in the night sky, indicating that there was a mysterious story waiting to be revealed at the heart of this magical moment.

One quiet morning, Rose woke up to the faint voices of her maids talking nervously.

Rose took her coffee cautiously, and the conversation whispered about her unknown fate after Alex's marriage to Lisa.

Will Alex forget about Rose's presence in his life and let her leave, or will she remain chained to his obsession with her, which may hold her fate in his hands?

That morning, Rose sat on a bench across the river and thought about her fate.

She knew that she had two options "either to stay here, or to leave him and look for a second life after Alex's marriage"

In the darkness of the night, Alex's steps crept lightly towards the palace where Rose was located.

He felt something strange in his heart, something that looked like love, but it wasn't true love.

Alex arrived at the palace late at night, and the place was quiet.

He crept into the garden and looked for Rose among the trees and plants.

After a long search, Alex found Rose sitting on the banks of the river.

She was looking at the clear water, as if she was reading a story.

Alex stood in the dark, staring at Rose from afar.

Her golden hair cascaded down her shoulders, like a silk waterfall.
Her big eyes were shining in the moonlight, like the stars in the sky.

Alex stood in the dark, staring at Rose for a long time and hoping she would feel him, look at him.

But Rose did not feel Alex because she was immersed in her own world, feeling nothing.

In the end, Alex decided to leave and did not want to disturb Rose.
