~START OF FLASHBACK~
She walked down the stairs to her room l. This time she found it.
He had lied before. He had kissed her on the same day Naimah and him kissed too.
He had admitted to it, and now she felt like she just needed to leave.
Sitting, she called Maureen and asked her to pack a few clothes for her as she called Justin, Raj's PA.
~END OF FLASHBACK~
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Theodore asked, looking at the Princess who nodded.
"I want to go back to my mum's."
"You mean to Hunter's Estate?"
"Yes..." she paused before sighing. "I hope she is still there..."
"Oh, she is," Theodore nodded his head as he buckled her in. Marco rolled his eyes as he buckled himself in too. Theodore got into the back seat and put on his belt as they all wore the headphones provided by the pilot of the helicopter.
Marco spoke first. "Are you ready Princess?"
"As ready as I ever will be."
*&*&*&*&
Naimah paced up and down as she watched her mother smile at the white dress in her arms. It was her old wedding dress and it looked great.
It was a sudden plan that had driven the royals all over the world crazy. Especially the royal spinsters. The news went crazy with the story as gossip columns insisted that she was pregnant.
The Princess knew that Vasheronne was hurt when she gave up Rajab. She had come to like him a lot. She would never take the sacrifice for granted.
Vasheronne never said what she was planning when she made a courtesy call to her cousin's new home: the Contessa's Castle. Veronica and Harold had received and treated her civilly.
She got Naimah togo back home. She did not explain why she insisted on it though. All she could say was that it wasn't right.
Over the past few days, her maturity had come to surface. She had been forced to wisen up after seeing her supposed fiance in a broom closet with her cousin. Vasheronne loved him though she couldn't exactly compare ger feelings for Luke with her feelings for him.
"We are reaady for takeoff..." the pilot began, making Vasheronne snap out of her thoughts.
It was time to bring the truth to life.
It was time to reunite with her other mother.
*&*&*&*&
Rajab woke up suddenly, immediately realizing something was wrong. He could hear her breathing next to him.
"Naimah?" he asked as he turned in bed to see her smiling.
"Ray, good morning. I am so sorry i snuck in and..."
"Its okay."
Naimah stared at him before reaching out to touch him hesitantly. He drew away, making her swallow hard.
"You don't want me here?"
"I do... I just think it is too soon."
Naimah sat up, her eyes flashing with an emotion Rajab couldn't read. She bit her lower lip and then got up and left.
Rajab sighed. He had to talk to Vasheronne. As soon as possible.
*&*&*&*&
"Sir, she isn't in her room."
Rajab sat up again. Oh no... no... no, why would she leave him again? Last time she did this, she had her heartbroken. There was no telling what could happen this time.
"Get me Justin," he told one of the manservants. "Get me Justin NOW!"
"Sir, Maureen is here to speak with you," a bodyguard said.
"Let her in."
Maureen walked in and curtsied. "Your Highness."
"Maureen."
"I have a message for you from Her Highness Princess Vasheronne. She told me to give you this." She gavr him a letter and curtsied again before he dismissed her.
He opened the letter and instantly knew she was the one who had penned it.
Dear Raj,
If you receive this letter, then it means you have found out i left.I decided to go look for Lady Arana because i need answers my mother can't give.
Plus i just need a break from all these... things.
I will be in touch. Don't worry, i will be okay.
Love,
~VasheronneHe wanted to crumple the piece of paper and burn the whole place down but...
Justin walked in, trying not to look worried, but he knew better. He took one look at Rajab and knew that the cover was blown.
He was right because Rajab turned to him after carefully put the letter down and growled like a grizzly. Literally.
"Start. Talking. Now."
