DAMN PRINCE

"Why" he asked carefully,he didn't want to aggravate her.

"I had wanted to talk to you, before the wedding started, But I had no idea the wedding would start as soon as I got here" She scowled at him. She needed someone to pour all her anger and frustration on and it seems the prince was the perfect one for that.

Seeing that this would be a long talk, Derrek casually leaned against the wall, while crossing his legs and folding his arms. Giving her his full attention.

Isabel couldn't help but admire his posture at that point,he looked like a statue, he could be mistaken as one.

she shook her head as if wanting to shake off unnecessary thoughts.

"First of" she started. "This is a modern era, not a fuck**g Old era where parents have to marry their children off in order to form alliances or whatever"

Derrek was taken aback with her use of curse word, 'She sure will be handful' he thought. he kept listening to all her rants. she needed someone to vent to.

He was even surprised at how calm he was towards her,he wouldn't be this patient if it was someone else.

"Second of all, I never intend to get married yet,not without love, I never wanted an arranged marriage even if it is to a damn prince"

"....." as soon as those words came out of her mouth, she freezed, she never intended to use that word.

Derrek couldn't believe his ears, did she just call him that!, although he was shocked,he maintained his calm expression.

"Am really sorry,I never meant to call you that, seriously,believe me, it was a slip of tongue" Isabel apologized while frantically waving both hands. She really didn't mean to use those words,her anger took the best of her.

She released the breath she didn't realize she had been holding in when he nodded his head in understanding.

"Is that all" Derrek asked her in a calm tone while straightening his back, her looked at her with his deep blue eyes, making her heart skip a beat.

"A...and, how do y..you feel about all this,are you okay with getting married to someone you know nothing about" she asked stuttering.

Derrek started moving closer to her,while gazing at her intently, he pulled her closer to him, making her gasp in surprise. Their recent position made her remember how he had kissed her earlier, she could feel her ears getting hot.

He looked at down,deep into her honey-colored eyes, he couldn't help but get lost into her eyes, the one's he had missed dearly. they looked so pure as they sparkled. his eyes trailed down, that was when he realized that she hadn't changed out of her dress from earlier.

Isabel's heart started beating erratically, she felt that any longer than this,she could collapse. Being under his intense gaze was something she couldn't handle. And God helping her, he tore his gaze off and answered her question.

"You want to know how I feel?". she nodded.

"I feel happy,although you can't understand and..." he paused. "You are mistaken, I know more about you,than you could have ever imagined" he whispered into her ear.
