C8: Fiancè

when I got to the hall it was packed, everyone looking like they were going to a ball, wait there are.

Looking around I sported my sister with Fiona " hey, hey" I said, and they looked at me like I just grown another head.

"what?" I asked shrugging ,Adeline was the first to speak" The words that come off of your mouth does not suit your status." with that said she walked away, and I envied her natural hair that laid just below her shoulders.

" hmmmm....,there is Toby, I have been looking for him ,bye" Fiona then left, I stood there and watched people socialize, I greated those who did the same and smiled here and there until my eyes landed on the one person that i didn't expect to see, walking towards me.

" well well well , ain't you looking all lovely today." he said with that good hair of his.

I wanted to slap that smirk of off his face , but i decided to play it cool, he was in my territory and believe me he didn't know who I was.

"Such language is not allowed here Mr O'Connor." I told him while I smoothened my dress.

" You know I had always known you had the beauty Vero..." he continued taking a step further, and I didn't move.

" Miss Lien to you ." I told him , he was being a jerk , what was he even doing in Casavanna.

"I always liked you ."he told me still walking towards me, feeling irritated, I frowned, I wanted to give him a piece of my mind right there and then, maybe crunch his nuts while at it, whether the room was full or not I didn't care , all the self controll I had was gone through the window, opening my mouth ready to unleash everything, I posed when another voice, louder than I intended mine to be , and more manlier than mine, spoke

" Don't you touch my fiancè O'Connor oh so help me ".

The whole room froze, myself included, but the look on my father and mother was indescribably.

There in all their glory, halfway down the stairs they were descending upon, turning around I was even more shocked to see Grey, but i was brought out of my frozen state by the flash's that went left and right and the question being asked

" Princess Veronica,is it true that you are engaged" one asked

"is this the bachelor your father The king has chooses for you" another was fired.

"is he the reason that you have left Casavanna for 2years" another one asked.

I stared at Grey and the shock in his face, I don't even know why he looked like a ghost right now, after all he was the one who caused all this drama.

My father's voice full of authority spoke" I'm sorry to end this night before it even began, I would like everyone to be escorted out."

He told everyone, a lot tried to get answer to their question but my father dismissed them.

Grey, took a step and I pulled him by his dark nevy blue tuxedo that looked good on him.

" You are staying , Mr 'I'm the fiancè , of the princess" I whispered to him.

Wow he really was tall ,even in hills I was still shorter than he was, looking around I realized that Ryan was gone, everyone was gone , the silent room only had myself, my parents, sister,her fiancè, Fiona ,guards and the guy in a black suit and.... wait guy in a suit, oh!that must be the fiancè I was going to be given, he was handsome alright, drool worthy his skin was of my shade, tea like, his eyes looked greenish and his hair was short, a brush if I may say, looking at my right Grey stood there , ok maybe the guy might not be as handsome as my fiancè.

I could see the storm coming from my dad, it was huge.

"Before you say anything Father, may I please have a word with him for a while , please father."I pleaded, he sighed before he looked at my mother then pinching the bridge of his nose, he nodded.

I smiled at him then dragged the idiot to another room." Princess?" he asked as soon as we got to the room I dragged him to.

" oh!please, do you know how much trouble I'm in with your announcement? " I asked walking around.

" You are a princess?" he asked again, I just rolled my eyes at him.

" Yes, now you are my fiancè, this is bad Grey ." I told him I was a nervous wreck.

" Grey?" he asked and I just had to slap my forehead ." would you please stop talking like that, it's not like I know your name, you have grey hair, grey eyes ,grey mood, I spent one night at your house now you are my fiancè. "

I told him exaggerating, he was standing there with his good hair and face ,I took a sit and signed" Alexander Taylor, and I do not have grey mood" he spoke.

Sighing again I rose " Veronica Lien the first, the princess part is silent, now we have to figure a story my parents would believe."

I told him while I held his hand " oh no ,I'm going back to Capetown, I didn't mean all of that, it's just Ryan is..." he posed and the angry look told me there was more to the story.

"Ofcause you are staying, look the press already knows about this ordeal, besides my dad was going to get me married to that guy in there whom I don't even know." I told him serious.

" You don't know me either" he shoot back and I rolled my eyes at him, he was such a drama queen.

" true but you know me, remember?, you literally know my deepest secrets and you saw me naked, now I don't know about you but I'm not in the mood to explain all of that to the king." I told him , he was about to say something ,but Fiona entered.

"His highness would like to speak to you both." she said and I nodded before walking along with Grey, I mean Alexander behind Fiona.
