Beyond Princess Arabella [COMPLETED]

Chapter 17

Arabella's POV

I slowly opened my eyes, to be greeted by the sharp rays of sun. Groaning, I pull the duvet over my head. Hearing laughter, I lift the duvet off of my head. "Morning Xavi." I said pecking his lips.

"Morning my princess." He kissed me once again.  Suddenly something caught my eye, I looked down at my hand and saw my ring glistening from the rays of sun. "Seen something interesting Belle?"

"Yeah, look at it, it's so beautiful. I can't believe that I am engaged to you, I am going to be your wife."

"Yes baby, you are. So now not only are you my princess, your going to be my queen." He said kissing down my ears to my neck.

"Oh god, I didn't even think about that. I won't make a good queen, will I?" I asked, hiding my head in the duvet.

Xavier lifted the duvet off of my head and turned me to look at him straight in the eyes. "Baby, your going to make the most perfect queen of my country. Just think how caring, kind, intelligent and sexy you are. And the public even love you at the minute. Your going to be my perfect queen." He said with stern look in his eyes. He slowly leaned into me, placing his soft lips on mine, giving me a long passionate kiss.

Suddenly a knock came from the side of the door. "Your majesties, I am sorry to interrupt you, but you need to leave within an hour to get your flight home." A worker said through the door.

"Thank you very much." I said back whilst slightly giggling at Xavier's' groaning beside me.

"Urgh, why are people always interrupting us?" he said placing his head in my neck.

"Come on babe, we need to get up." I said running my hands through. Admiring my ring in his hair.

"I don't want to get up! How are you so awake? You only woke up 10 minutes ago." He whined.

"Because I want to go home, and show everyone my ring. I've even got the perfect dress to wear. It's a pure white dress with lace all over."

"Why white? Doesn't that look like a wedding dress?" He questioned.

"Exactly babe." I said kissing his jaw.

**********************************************************************************

"After you baby." Xavier said whilst holding his hand.

"Why thank you Xavi, always a gentleman." I said once we were sat in the car.

"Only for you Belle." He pecked my lips softly.

The car ride back to the palace took just over an hour, the traffic was horrendous. Xavi made the ride feel like less time, continuing kissing all over my neck and lips.

"Baby, were here. Let's go, inside shall we?" He asked

"Yeah, let's go."

"Mum, Xander, were home." Xavier shouted once we were inside the foyer, he held my left hand in his, his thumb running over my ring.

"Welcome home, how you're your journey?" Lillian said to us walking down the stairs with Xander following her.

"It was really great. Roseedge is a beautiful place, and Aunt Emily and Felix were very accommodating." I said whilst smiling.

"Well, its great you had a good time. But why did you call us here brother? It obviously something else than to tell us your home." Xander questioned.

Xavier then lifted my hand in his, purposely making my ring catch the light.

"Oh my god, is that what I think it is Xavier?" Lillian questioned us.

"Well, yes, it is mum, I have found my queen." Xavier said moving his hand to my waist, pulling me closer.

"Congratulations, I am so happy for you guys, you'll make the perfect queen Arabella. I know it." Lillian said whilst pulling me out of Xavier's grip, into her arms.

"Congrats bro, Arabella, when is the wedding?"  Xander asked Xavi.

"Well brother, I only asked her last night, so maybe in a few months. But I think we should tell the public today. What do you think my princess?" He asked me, pulling me to his chest.

"Well, I don't mind babe, whenever." I said gazing up into his eyes.

"Aww, you two are so cute. But I need to go and call members of parliament and the press." Lillian said whilst smiling at us, before walking away.

Suddenly my phone started to ring, I looked at the caller ID and immediately went cold heart.

"What do you want Josh? Why can't you just leave me to live a happy life? I heard that you even told people to not tell me that I am a princess. What bloody right do you have to do that? Huh?" I asked him in a harsh voice.

"I- "

"No, you don't get to interrupt me. Don't even try to lie about knowing I was a princess, the queen told me you, bas- I can't swear at you now, but just imagine I finished that word." I said whilst Xavier was rubbing my back.

"Well, I thought it was the best for you, just so you could do your studies. Arabella, I still love you." Josh said pleading to me down the throne.

"Well, I don't love you anymore. These past 5 months with Prince Xavier have been the best yet. And if you listen to the news in an hour, you will know that you wont ever have me back." I almost shouted down the phone.

"If you don't leave my girlfriend, and Princess, then I will have you arrested. Goodbye." Xavier took my phone and ended the call.

"Thank you, Xavi." I said hugging his chest.

"I will do anything for you my princess, anything." He said kissing down my neck.

"You two, here, were talking to the press." Xander said calling us.

We walked hand in hand down to the room which held the press. Walking in the door, we see thousands of press, and a stage. We walked up to the stage and Lillian was already sat on her throne. Next to her Xavier sat down, then Xander and finally me.

"Arabella, you know you could sit next to Xavier." Xander turned to me.

"Oh, I thought I couldn't. Would we be able to swap then?" I asked him

"Sure."

Swapping seats, I sat next to Xavier. He moved his hand to hold mine.

"Good afternoon everyone. We have called you here for an announcement." Lillian started, before she motioned Xavier to stand up and take her place.

"Thank you all for coming here at short notice. I would like to formally announce my engagement with Princess Arabella of Roseedge." He said before pulling me up to stand next to him. "We have not yet set a date; however, it will be a public wedding as we are the heir to the throne."

"Well, if you haven't got any questions we will leave." Lillian said, a voice then popped up.

"Are we looking at the next king and queen of this country." A member of press asked.

"Yes, you are, and we hope that you except her as your heir to be queen." Xander said, after that we walked out of the room.

"So, I guess you guys want to celebrate even more than you did last night. I heard from Emily." Lillian said while laughing.

"Urgh, mum, really. You just had to say that?" Xavier asked.

"Yes son, I did. Have fun upstairs." She said whilst walking away with Xander.

"Well, the queen of England has just told us to celebrate. So, shall we my princess." Xavier asked holding my waist and started attacking my neck with kisses.

"Why, if she insisted, then I guess we should." I laughed, playing along.

We then spent the rest of the day up in our bedroom, 'celebrating' as Lillian put it.
