Princess of Termina (Link x Princess-reader)

|| Chapter 12 || Tricking

The door slammed open against the wall as Alex was thrown inside the room, regaining balance and turning to face his brother. Aryan shut the door behind them as he faced his back to his brother. 

"This is just great..." Aryan hissed under his breath as Alex raised an eyebrow.

"What's even with you? Why'd you make me leave?" he asked, taking a step forward only for Aryan to spin around, punching him in the face as he stumbled back before falling on the ground. He held his face with wide eyes, looking to his brother," what the hell was that for!?"

"For you being an idiot! You are to marry the Princess but when she said she liked to hero more, you didn't say a thing! You should have said something other than you didn't care, tell her how you truly felt!" Aryan yelled, pointing a finger at his brother.

"...It was how I truly felt..." Alex whispered as Aryan glared down at him.

"What did you say?" he challenged as Alex looked up to him.

"I said it was how I felt. I don't care if (y/n) loves Link because I know she'd be happier with him. I don't want her to suffer with me, I can do that on my own!" he hissed as Aryan marched over, picking up the smaller boy by the neck and lifting him in the air.

Alex struggled, meeting his brothers eyes with a glare. Aryan narrowed his eyes at his brother as he spoke darkly," you know you are to marry her whether you like it or not, its fathers orders! Do you think he cares if you love her or if she loves you? NO! He wants you to marry her no matter what or who steps in your path, even that damned hero!"

"W-Well what am I g-going to do? I-I can't make her l-love me..." Alex began to loss air as he stopped struggling, his face going blue as his eyes closed.

Aryan growled, dropping his brother and watching him land on the ground, holding his neck as he gasped for air. 

"Your useless, no wonder father don't love you..." he kicked Alex in the stomach as he rolled on the floor, hissing in pain. The older Prince stepped over the younger, walking over to the desk of the room and looking through it. Alex pushed himself off the ground, holding his stomach and watching his brother go though the stuff on the desk.

"We both had a feeling you would mess something up so father gave me this, just in case," Aryan pulled out a bottle filled with a sparkly pink potion that almost glowed.

 Alex looked from his brother then the potion, raising an eyebrow," w-what's that gonna do?"

"Its a love potion. All we have to do is give it to (y/n) and she'll fall in love with you instantly," Aryan smirked as Alex's eyes went wide.

"Don't. Just let her be," the Prince begged as his brother walked pass him, the bottle in his hands as he stopped at the door.

"Remember, this meeting we had never happened. Now give me a favor dear brother and clean yourself up before you come down to dinner. Your a Prince, try looking like one," Aryan opened the door, not looking back at his brother as he left the room.

Alex watched him go, frowning as he looked to the ground," please...don't..."

~~~Time Skip~~~

Everyone had meet up in the dinning room just in time for dinner. The Queen and King watched from their seats as the Princess and her friends talked happily among themselves. The Queen looked to her husband with a smile," she seems much happier."

"Indeed. Its nice to see she is feeling better and is even getting along well with Prince Alex. This will all go smoothly from here, I'm sure," he agreed as the Queen turned, looking at the table of people.
