Once Upon A Royal Love

Chapter 73

Alexandra's POV

Why? Why does all this shit happen to me.
Like just me.
Never any of my friends.
Or their families.

I just had to sit at that table and let William have a full conversation with me.
God. I have the worst luck.

"W-what are you doing?", I asked him breathing heavily.

"For weeks— I tried to convince myself that what we had was real. But it wasn't. I was just a distraction for you. So you can forget all about Mr. Henry and how he hurt you", Liam said.

I never knew he had so much anger built up because of that. I hurt him. Just like William hurt me.

"That's not true", I say.
"Oh yeah?", he asked slowly approaching me.
"You think what we had wasn't real?", I asked him backing away.

"Don't try to convince me otherwise. You never loved me the way you loved William. And now— it's payback because your pregnant by him", he said before smirking.

"So what? Your here to prove that you don't care?", I asked him.

"As much as I would like to do that, I came to take everything away from William. Starting with you", he said.

I got defensive fast.

"I swear to god if you— he cut me off, "you'll what? You have forgotten that you are pregnant, right?", he said smirking.

"You don't have to do this", I tell him.
"Actually, I do", he said.

"William has gotten everything I ever wanted. Money. Fame. You. I just think it's time I take it all back", he continued making my heart drop.

"So what? Your gonna kill me?", I asked.
"Maybe. It depends how much you beg for your life", he said.

"So, Ms.Leighton. Since you are with child- I'm gonna give you exactly 10 seconds for a head start", he said before taking off his jacket and tossing it to the ground.

"Ready?", he asked undoing his cuff links.
I inhaled and exhaled deeply, "set", he said.
Slowly taking off my heels, "go", he said giving me exactly 10 seconds to run.

Which I did.
I took off running towards my room, I slammed the door shut and locked it fastly.

Think, Alexandra. Think.
I looked around the room, my eyes were glued to the drawers. I basically ran towards it, and pushing it.

Or at least trying to.
"Where are you!", the loud voice of a very crazy, upset Liam said making his way down each door in the hallway.

I knew he was quickly approaching mine.
I pushed the drawers against the door, which happen to make a lot of noise.

"There you are!", his voice said before banging on the door.

I began to notice it wasn't going to keep him out for long. I walked towards the window, yanking the curtains open quickly.

"Open up!", he shout still banging on the door.
Breathing heavily, without looking back, I opened the door window.

I heard the drawer full to the ground, meaning he was almost inside.
