Book 4: Chapter 3

Emily's POV

"Are you shitting me?" Gen rhetorically asked as she threw herself face-down in my bed, in my hotel room, worn out from exhaustion.

"I can't believe Sebastian is a prince." I finally spoke while staring at my reflection from a wine glass. I poured myself another drink.

I was having one hell of a day. First, I had to put an abrupt end to my hotel project, then I found out my ex-boyfriend was the Prince of Conovia and I was summoned by him and his father on the rights of the land.

I down three glasses of wine. One after the other.

"At least share with me as well! I'm having a bad day too!" Gen called and snatched the bottle out my hand.

"No! Give it here Gen! Give it here!" I squealed and a competition to tug-of-war broke out.

A sudden knock came at the door, putting an end to the battle of the wine. I got off the bed, straightened my clothes and opened the door slightly to reveal one of the hotel's receptionist.
