The man laying beside you

Leo was read to heading city A with Her highness and Jennifer, they settled themselves comfortably on the plane. Leo was trying his best to digest the fact that Andrea wasn't kidnapped she was only hiding from everyone's sight as her Highness had planned.

Leo himself was looking for Andrea since last year He never really believed that she was dead as the rest of the world. So without letting anyone know he started searching for her before but he stopped searching when his men told him that he couldn't find the princess so he didn't press this matter and thought maybe she already had died. But who had known that her Highness kept her away from everyone's eyes.

The matter of being attacked by the enemy was more serious than what Her highness had told Leo. The people who wanted to hurt Andrea had found her. According to Her highness's sources, they also have sent someone in close vicinity of her. Her life was really in danger and no one knows when and where those people are going to attack her again. Their last attack almost had killed Andrea. They got too close to her.

Leo knew they will not be planning any attack anytime soon as Andrea got lucky that time and those people were too overconfident to call Her highness and alert her.

Leo needed time to execute their plan to bring Andrea to the Royal Manor and announce her as the princess of City D and his wife. This was the silence before the storm that was going to change some lives forever.

For the first time in his life, he had to work according to other people's plan or else he was the one who always had made the plan and make other to cry to the core of their bone and accepted their own defeat by themselves.

Leo thought of giving a call to Mr. James before sitting on the plane so he excuses himself and begins to dial the number.

Instantly someone received the call but it wasn't Mr. James but the sound was rather feminine so Leo was surprised firstly, his dirty mind thought that Mr. James was with a woman. So he mischievously smiled.

"Hello, gives the phone to the man lying beside you on the bed," Leo said in his sexy voice.

The person on the other side was Andrea. Andrea replied with an irritating tone "what".

"This is Andrea speaking, Mr.James' first daughter".

Leo was stunned for a few seconds after hearing her sweet honey voice so melodious and alluring that he went in a daze then he realizes that he didn't reply so he awkwardly clears his throat, without apologizing for his mistake he said

"This is Leo, can I talk to Mr.James".

He wanted to talk more to her but he didn't want her to know yet that who is he so he only tells his half name to her.

"Hold on", Andrea said.

She was rather annoyed by not receiving an apology from another side so she thought Leo was rude and she felt disdain in her heart for some reason.

"Ok", Leo said and became silent.

'Why her voice making me uncomfortable it's not like I never heard the beautiful voice before, wait did I just complimented her". He was annoyed by his thoughts he was thinking about her voice.

Andrea went to Mr. James' bedroom and told him that someone called Leo was on the phone. Hearing the name Leo, Mr. James instantly came to his study room keeping aside his work and pick the phone from the table while wiping sweat from his forehead and finally said "hello, Prince Leo"

Without caring for greeting back Leo directly asked for Andrea's full schedule.

Mr. James stunned for a second then told him something about her, Mr. James told him that he will send him a file related to her because he knew why he was asking for her schedule.

After talking to Mr. James Leo went to the plane and was ready to go to City A.

He was going to take care of the situation his way, no matter what circumstances.

Leo never gave up anything that was his, it did not matter what he had to do for it even if he had to break Mountain or had to rip apart sky he will do for his thing because what is his is always be his, this time it was Andrea. She was the golden key of immense power and he wanted all the power so badly. She was right now the object of his obsession. He had to marry her by any hook or by crook. He didn't really care how she looks like how she behaves even has she any royal family's manners, all these things are secondary to him because he only wanted power. He could get any type of girl he wanted he would just play with to whom he wants and will throw after losing his interest.

Leo made a master plan and before executing it, he took permission from her Highness.

There were few people in the world whom Leo respected with all his heart. Mr. James was one of them. He had taken a huge risk by keeping Andrea into his house. It provided a huge risk to his life and his daughters. He was very loyal to the royal family. He had taken care of him when he was a kid. Mr. James taught different life saving techniques and martial arts to Leo. He had also learned how to shoot from Mr. James. He was one of the very few people who could read him which surprised Leo since his own father sometimes gave up on him. After reaching City A Leo called Mr. James to meet in a coffee shop.

When Mr. James reached Leo was already sitting there and was sipping black coffee.

"Uncle, please have a seat, I want to talk something with you", Leo requested.

"Yes Prince" Mr. James replied and took a seat opposite Leo. He had seen Leo become a ruthless business man from a high spirited kid. But he also knew that there was a really good person under that tough exterior, though it rarely came out.

"Why didn't you tell me Andrea was with you...you knew that I was searching Andrea", Leo realized what meaningless questions he had asked and waved his hand in the air, "hmm...I know you will never go against Her Highness order", Leo answered his own question.

Mr. James smiled at Leo, "do you want to know how's she?"

"You are right uncle, I wanted to know how's she…mhmm.. leave it I will discover about her myself...but right now she is alone in City A...is it safe?", Leo inquired.

"Don't worry Prince…my neighbors are actually royal guards. They will be tailing her wherever she goes and keeps us updated all the time", Mr. James gave Leo a file, "Andrea's schedule is in this file and also the list of the possible people who could be the mole of the attacker… this fight is not going to be easy..I tried to convince Andrea but she didn't listen to me and stopped talking to me for a week", Mr. James stated, "have a look at the schedule Prince" Saying that he excuses himself and left Leo to wonder in his thought.

On look at Andrea's schedule and he realized that Her Highness was right as usual. Her routine was as ordinary as any other working-class girl but she still had the spirit of a royal. Leo looked at the passport size picture of Andrea attached to the schedule and smiled to himself. She was not as bad looking as he had thought she would be. He could see the resemblance between her and Queen Amelia. She was a natural beauty. He was now really eager to meet his "Beautiful Princess."
