Heart Vacancy

Chapter 3

All the girls mouth dropped especially Cynthia's. Cynthia's eyes never left the princes body scanning ever detail. As if he had sensed there was someone watching he directed his ice eyes to her and narrowed them on her. Cynthia froze as if his cool eyes had power over her. Oh God he caught her looking. Immediately she looked away and only looked at the floor. The queen came down the staircase, followed by the king and prince to properly greet the five girls.

"Ah you all are indeed lovely. We certainly have invited quite a great bunch haven't we?" The queen began, looking straight at the prince. He only rolled his eyes.

"I'm Queen Luna and this is King Alistair. State your names, all of you."Luna instructed.

Cynthia realized that she didn't mention the princes name. A prince should be introduced so probably he will say his own name. Rossetti was first to say her name, then so and so forth until it was Cynthia's turn. After she said her name she eyed at the prince but his face was hard to read. Emotionless but thoughtful all at the same time.

The prince looked at them from head to toe. All were different from one another but they were like the rest he has seen. Shame, he really wanted something new. Nineteen years he has been going through this and it has always been the same, five girls willing to do anything to marry him. He had them so often that they were starting to bore him.The prince was nineteen and still hasn't found his queen. Why isn't he married? Well all of them couldn't meet his standards. They couldn't handle his dominate side since it was a bit overwhelming but it was a big part of him. Slightly tilting his head, he watched the raven haired woman called Cynthia that was staring at him earlier. She was looking down, not making any eye contact. She was a beauty. As were the rest of them but something about her, he couldn't put his finger on. The king looked at him, signaling that he needed to meet them up close.Growling he came up close to the girls, not really wanting to. He came face to face to the red head Rossetti. She bowed and gave him a smile but he didn't return a smile back. Instead his eyes harden which made her feel uneasy. He grabbed her chin and tilted her head up so that he could examine all her features. Such actions shocked Rossetti, instantly her pussy started to fill her panties just by his touch. The prince smiled knowing his affect on woman, he has been with so many he basically study them, knowing there weakest spots to give them lustful feeling and hidden desires. The princes hand trailed down to her neck slowly. Only his finger tips moved smoothly on her now boiling skin. Rossetti was starting to lose herself and the prince could see right through her. She wasn't going to last long enough for her to entertain him. The Prince stopped her touter and moved on to the next. There was a different affect with the blonde Valin. She seemed bored which was NOT a good sign. A woman that is already bored with him showed she is not pure. Haven Royals like a woman that was pure in her personality and in looks. He quickly moved on to the next. Aaliyah was her name, she seemed almost too young for his age which lead up to his question.

"How old are you?" The prince asked, his voice deep and husky.

Aaliyah was desperate for him to speak again with his sexy voice. She was imagining the things that he could do to her just by him whispering her name. Her imagination grew even more wild by him touching her and looking deep into her eyes.

"Seventeen your sexyness...I MEAN PRINCE." She quickly corrected, her voice full of embarrassment. This made the prince mad and was disapproved by her answer that she has given him. His hand tangled trough her hair then forcefully pulled back which made Aaliyah's head tilt all the way up. Wide eyes shocked by the Princes force.

"You best answer me correctly little girl. So I'll ask you again what is your age?" He said, he lowered his head to her throat and softly breathed over the beating pulse. His warm breath was almost to much to handle for Aaliyah. It was torturing, she wanted to grab him close to her.She wanted him to feel her. She wanted so much of him but she knew it well most likely make him furious.

"Seventeen."Aaliyah whimpered.

The prince eyed at her deadly and finally let her free from his grip. On to the next. It was Beth's turn. Before he even touched her, she was looking at him flirtatiously. Dark brown eyes looking at him up and down. She bit her lower lip thinking that the prince defiantly wanted her. Slut was all he thought so he didn't even bother examining her. Beth was shocked and offend all at the same time but there wasn't much she could do. Last but not least was Cynthia.

The prince moved forward and her pretty light brown eyes turned to him. She almost seemed nervous to see him. This made the prince almost smile, enjoying how he made her intimidated. He took a few more steps closer till he was standing in front of her, a little too close. She was extremely small compared to him. It was cute in a way. Unexpectedly she seem to change her emotion into a more curious look. Like she had a question that she had just thought of.

"What's your name prince." Cynthia said nonchalant. Silence struck the room. None of the girls didn't dare to speak considering it was a rule to wait until the prince gave his permission to speak. Clearly she forgot about that one. Reaching his hand out, he tangled it in her hair. A soft gasp came from her as he pulled her to him.

"How dare you speak without permission. You best know your place and never to did it again or there could be other consequences for you." He told her as his eyes darkened. She gasped, her eyes wide, as she stared at him. The prince could tell her body wanted him but her mind was fighting against it. Letting her go, he turned and left upstairs back to his chambers. He had enough.

"Well sorry for speaking out of line but I gave you my name, why can't you return the favor?" Cynthia said behind him. This surprised the prince, he has never met someone that was still willing to disobey. Anger crawled inside him but he pushed the feelings back and continue walking.He knew that his anger could get out of hand if he decided to teach her a brutal lesson about her disobedience. Besides he didn't want to show such actions while his parents were there.

"I'm talking to you." Cynthia said, pushing her limits. The prince slightly turned his head in frustration.

"You'll know if I'm talking to you if I make eye contact." He said coldly and left to his room. Cynthia crossed her arms in frustration. All she wanted was to know was his name. Is that too much to ask? Luna clapped her hands for all the girls attention.

"Ladies I'm so thrilled that you all met the prince. Now the real challenge begins, for four months this kingdom is your home where you can feel comfortable and as though you were one of my child's. You will be feed, clothed, and provided rooms for your stay. Once the four months are over the prince will decide which of you he wishes to be by his side. If none of you are to be chosen you will be banned from staying in this castle and to go back to your normal lives. I expect all of you to come down for dinner and to be dressed in the gowns laying on yours beds. The guards will show you to your rooms." With that said by the wave of her hand five golden nights came to escort the young ladies. Thinking about the queens words, Cynthia now has no choice but to win the prince since she has no life to live. Suddenly Cynthia thought of something, a plan that was so perfect that she smiled to herself.

Let the games begin.
