...PrinceS.....
"I love you Sophia...." Jason said as he knelt before her on the hospital bed. He held the ring to her finger. A diamond encrusted gold ring with a hexagonal cut.
Sophia drew back her hand abruptly.
"If it's about the child.... I'm not going to hurt the child. So there is no need for you to put up this act Jason. I know you hate me"
"I'm not putting up an act" He tried to hold her hand, but she didn't let him." Sophia hear me out. Please. You can throw me out when I'm done".
Sophia just shrugged a weak shrug but she looked at him with an expressionless face.
"You said you love me right?"
Benjamin entered but no one noticed.
"I do. More than anything" Jason replied.
"But why didn't you believe me.... When I said I was pregnant for you. The least you could do was believe me. And you say you love me? I left the Mansion for Two months. You couldn't even come to visit. And you say you love me?.."
"Sophia try to understand. I was trying to bury the feelings I had for you. I couldn't bear the fact that I was falling In love with my nemesis's daughter. That's why I kept my distance from you as far as possible. I'm so sorry. I was acting so childish. I hated you just because of your father's atrocities. I shouldn't have behaved so immature"
Janvier held her brother. "We all did.."
Sophia just pressed the back of her palms into her eyes, sniffing like a sad puppy.
Jason hugged her and she didn't pull away.
He buried his nose in her hair as he hugged her tight. They stayed like that for a while. Not until Jason muttered something. Sophia pulled away.
"What?"
Jason grabbed her fingers and slid the ring in her fingers. Sophia looked at him, confused.
"If you're not the one for me...then no one is....If I can't be with your forever then no one can. So please be mine. I want your face to be the last thing I see every night of my life" He kissed her "and the first thing I see every morning. I want us to grow old together Sophia. I want us to unite the Pueterico and Medes' Empire and stop this silly feud once and for all. .....So will you be mine. Will you marry me and make me yours forever till death separates us"
Sophia held her mouth in one hand and stared lovingly with tears in her eyes at the other hand which had the ring gleaming on her fingers.
She looked at the people around her.
Her best friend, Her sister, And Benjamin...They were there now, looking at her with sheepish smiles.
She looked at Jason and the tears which had been glistening in her eyes fell down her cheeks as she waved the hand which had a ring on , to his face.
"Well...I don't have a choice do I...??"
Everyone laughed and clapped as the two lovers hugged each other soaking In each other's happiness...
Pearl giggled at something Benjamin said as they approached his car. Benjamin was about to head back to the office so Pearl offered to escort him back to his car.
Benjamin watched as the smile on her face turned to sadness and he knew what was wrong
"You still have 10 months left. You can still get an heir before then..." He managed to console her as she walked towards him.
She smirked bitterly. "Can I get true love like she did. Can I get a husband. Can I ever marry in this life"
"You can Pearl"
Pearl leaned back on the car and looked up at the stars. "It was just meant to be Ben. Sophia's the real owner of the Will all along. I shouldn't have tried to take it away from her. I got so carried away with it...And now...I can't even find a man who likes me"
"Pearl you're beautiful. You're intelligent too. Why won't any man fall for you"
"Why can't a man fall in love with me for who I am. He doesn't have to care about my body or beauty or wealth. I don't want the properties. Right now, I want to find true love Is there not a single man in this world who loves me!" She closed her eyes but opened it to see Ben standing before her, trapping her against the car with his hands.
"There is ...One man...." He said slowly, a mischievous smile on his lips.
"Who?" Pearl asked and before she knew it, Benjamin kissed her. It was slow and tender at first, Pearl's hands were still down by her side and her eyes were widened in shock, but soon, Ben wrapped his hands around her waist and kissed her with such a harsh passion that she wound her hands around his neck and kissed him back.
All the times he had restrained himself from telling her about his feelings made him pour out his passion in the kiss.
When he felt Pearl grow limp, he pulled away and looked at her. Her expression was still in shock.
Suddenly he carried her up.
"Ben where are we going. Sophia might need me to...."
"Sophia's with Jason now. She wouldn't mind you being gone for about..." Ben leaned down on her with a devilish smile. "6 hours"
Then he starts going round to his seat. When he gets in, Pearl swiftly rolls and straddles him in the car closing the door so that no one would see them.
Then she grabbed his collar and pulled his face so close to hers that their noses were touching.
She gave him a sexy look on the lips, biting hers.
"I never knew you were such a good.." She stole a kiss...Which left a wet mark on his lips. "kisser"
"There are many things you're yet to know about me. But enough with that. I've been patient for long. it's time Pearl"
"Time" She frowned. "For what"
"A proposal?"
Pearl couldn't believe her ears. "You're going to ....."
"Yes. What do you think"
Suddenly Pearl felt sad.
"You're doing this because you think if you don't, I might never get married"
Ben made her to look at him.
"Any man who sees you and only uses your body is a fool. I love you Pearl. Not your body or your wealth. I love you. The real you"
Pearl just covered her face, blushing.
Benjamin enjoyed the sight of her, acting like a baby.
"Even after what I've done to Sophia...." She meekly asked
"You're sorry for what happened. That's enough"
He starts the car while Pearl was still straddling him. Pearl didn't know when she hugged him right from under his arm.
"Ben. I'm still straddling you. Where exactly are you going"
"It's a surprise. Besides..I think it's sexy as you straddle me while driving" He starts pulling out of the parking lot.
Pearl grabbed him tighter smiling.
"Bad boy. Where have you been all my life....."
