Contract

Surrounded by guards.

Locked by guns.

This is the feeling when nobody trusts you.

I got abused when I was a kid, and here I am. Playing with them, or... having a relationship with them. Definitely, they really know me, they really not.

"Who are you? What do you want?" said by one of the new guards here in the palace.

"I'm here to talk to your Majesty. And to my womanizer husband slash your fucking Prince. So, back off!" I stormed out of them.

"PUT DOWN YOUR GUNS, OR I WILL FIRED YOU ALL, FUCKERS!"

They didn't respect the Princess of Nightingale. I have the ring, the crown and also a... whatever!

"Ellisa, Oh my princess. Where have you've been?" the Prince asked.

"To the planet of the apes," I answered.

"Don't be so mean, Ellisa."

I walked fast until I reached the hall and I saw our Majesty.

"Good morning! Nice to see you again your Majesty," I greeted.

I kissed their cheeks and sat beside his Mom. And I saw my husband wanting to sit beside me and I say...

"Don't!"

"W-Why? This is my Palace and..."

"I am your wife," I reminded him. This is what I like, being spoiled to him is the best.

"Hmm, Ellisa? You are here because of the contract. This contract signed by your parents before they died last year."

"What is it your Majesty?" I said and drink some tea. I'm curious.

"Wife, they wanted to have us a child," my husband simply muttered.

I stood up for being shocked! My eyes darted to Majesty. The ambience was so quiet so I took a deep breath.

Inhaled, exhaled. And here it goes.

"Child?! Are you serious? What the hell! This is not happening, your Majesty, I'm just 18 and I have dreams, goals and so many things to do!" I shouted at them.

"Don't you dare shout Ellisa! Respect!" Majesty reminded me.

"Prince Jacques, I don't want to," I looked to my husband, I know he cares a lot for me. But he can't say no to his Mom.

I'm now crying. Sobbing. And tears flowing down to my cheeks.

"Mom, excuse us." Prince Jacques and I left Majesty to the hall. I know where are we going to. At the garden.

He gently guided me to sit at the bench. He shook his head and looked at me.

"My princess, I know it's hard for you. You know that I love you right? Am I not enough to you?"

I became silent this time. Since 2 years ago that we got married and my parents died last year so, this is what my parents wanted me to have. A better life and to find someone to protect me from harm.

"Ellisa, my princess. Look at me," And I looked at him, eye to eye.

"Princess, my wife. Look, If you don't want to, I respect you. But please don't make it hard for me. It's been years that I'm showing you that I love you," He took my hand and kissed the back of it.

"Give me days to prove that I really really love my princess. Please? I want kids, a family...with you." I saw his face how worried abou my answer but...

"Okay, Prince. I'll let you." And I realized that let him show his kindness and love to me even I'm not prefered for the contract we have.

He gazed at the two of us for a moment, his lips slowly forming a smile and hug me tightly.

"Thank you my princess, this is such a honor. I will do my best, for you."

I stood up, at looked at him while smiling.

"Start tomorrow, Prince Jacques." And I left him alone at the garden.

In the first day, he dragged me into a pianno lessons. How did he know that I love playing pianno? He just said that, he saw me and my mom having a bonding while playing pianno when I was little.

And he also says that, he wanted to continue my memories with my mom and he will guide me. I honestly don't know what I'd do without her. At least, Jacques is here.

In the second day, he drove me into his farm. I mean, their farm owned by Valorous Palace. I asked him, why here? He just say that, we both love fruits so we got there.

Apples, lemons, oranges, mangos, peaches, and so more. We're laughing and enjoying our time together. Then I realize that Jacques is... I'm feeling so better when I'm with him.

And this is the day of his courting or showing the loved for me. And I made my decission last night. I'd rather to say YES with him.

I fixed myself, and took some nice dress what I have. I left in my room and walked into the garden and I saw him kissing a girl. And Jacques tried to push her back.

Who's that girl?

I stepped out and stood infront of them. I saw them shocked, like do I.

"Who are you?" The girl asked.

"Who is she?" I asked Jacques.

"L-look, my princess. She kissed me and I push her back..." Prince Jacques explained.

"I said, who is he, Jacques?" I said calmly. But defintely I'm fucking jelous right now.

"I'm Felicity, princess of Osten Palace." The girl said.

"She's princess of..." I showed my hand to Jacques to stop explaining everything. Because I saw what happened.

"Did you know that Prince Jacques had a wife?"

"Yes, Ellisa. So, who cares?! I know you didn't want Prince Jacques, let me be mine." This girl getting me anger.

"I care!" I stepped out until she near at the pond. Revenge is a revenge!

"Let me remind you, Felicity. Don't you dare touch my husband. And actually don't you fucking kissed him!" And I pulled her and fell into the pond.

"What the... Prince Jacques, help me! My gosh! My dress! Ahhhhh!"

"Jacques! Let's go!" I said.

"Just call the guards Felicity, my priority is my wife." I smiled when I hear that.

I am the first left the garden, and Jacques is following me until we're now in the terrace.

"My princess, I'm sorry for what I did. I'm just telling the truth, she kissed me and..."

He stopped explaining when I kissed him softly. I let myself enjoy this brief moment of calm.

"W-what is that for, my wife?"

"I'm sorry Jacques, for many days that I'm being spoiled and everyting that I have done in the palace. And for goodness sake, I realized that I love you!" And I smiled at him, I know it is ackward for me to do this confessing thing.

"S-say it again, princess."

"I said I love you, my prince... my husband."

He hugged me tightly and kissed me in the forehead.

"You didn't know how much I'm happy right now, my wife. I loved you too! Come on! Let's make babies!"

"What?! Jacques is too early!" I hissed.

"Hmm, after dinner my princess. What do you think?" And he winked at me.

I laughed and enjoyed the time we spend together. At least for now, everything was on it's way to being better.
