chapter 20
the sun glare down at the glass mansion and soft hot wind whistled around , trees close by dance to it’s tones.
prince Kyle stood at his usual position close to his window while staring outside
his brows were frown and his face shows nothing but disapproval .
Erica had left the mansion very early with Mr Carter to the upper isel market with out informing the prince about her departure . not like he cares or anything but deep down he cared even if he doesn’t shows it
seconds turned minutes and minutes turns hours , more hours flew by and she wasn’t back yet
“stop staring outside ” the whisper came and the prince hissed in annoyance
” can you please shut up ” he spat
“hahaha today is the full moon our day , the day I shall take the life of that stupid insignificant human girl ”
” you should leave her out of this “the prince glared and his grip at the window frame tightened causing it to start cracking
“hahahaha you fool there’s nothing you can do , I own you and you’re nothing but a slave to me always remember that “the whisper came again . the thought of the dread moon was something he prince h@ťě to think of
he knows the darkness in him is going to be fueled by the moon to be strong enough to take over his body and there’s nothing he can do about that .
he stared up high at the plain sky for a while then he slowly turn and left the window side .
Mr Carter carriage rode in and it stopped in front of the mansion door and Erica stepped out with a big smile .
” don’t worry My lady I will get the items inside ” Mr Carter said with a bow
” no.. no don’t bow am just a commoner like you so there’s no need for that “she said and Mr Carter smile and nodded then she walk in caring 2 bags with her .
prince Kyle was inside the music room playing his piano with eyes close while humming a song to himself , the lyrics were already in his head so he just sang mentally with out using his lips .
as soon as he stop playing Erica walk in clapping
“bravo your highness ” she said smiling but as usual the prince kept his cold expression
“where have you been ” he said harshly and she sigh ad stop clapping
“I went out to get food items and other items we need “she said smoothing her gown with her nervous smile , he scoff and return his gaze back to the piano keys with out saying a word .
“I got you a gift your highness ” she spoke up and the word gift made his to lift his head up meeting her happy jolly eyes .”what gift ” he ask
she came forward with a white shiny box and place it on the piano , she opened it and inside were 2 beautiful wristlet chains . one of the wristlet had Together written boldly on it while the other had Forever written on it (together forever ).prince Kyle stared at the shiny silver wristlet
she expect him to at least show a Glee expression but instead he was angry , he was immersed for a while then he snorted glaring at the wristlets .
“ummm your highness don’t you like it” she ask
“I h@ťě it just like k h@ťě you. take it away “he spat coldly while glaring at it , her heart drop and her expression went sore
Erica felt like crying after hearing him said that .
“but what have I done to warrant your h@ťě ” she said heart broken while fuddling her fingers .
” forget what I said earlier they are nice ” he said calmly
” huh ”
” didn’t he just said he h@ťěs it “she wondered
“why the change of mind my prince I thought you h@ťě them and …”she tried to say
” and I have said you should forget what I said earlier didn’t I”he snapped and she quickly nodded
” after all I can’t reject a gift from a friend ” he said almost in a whisper . Erica gasped when she heard this
her mood instantly light up once again .
“y-you j-just s-said a-am your friend ” she stuttered staring directly at the prince who lifted his head up and casted her a quick glance before looking away .
” you once asked me to make friends didn’t you so I guess you are my only friend “he hollered but Erica cared not . she quickly took out one of the wristlet which had together written on it
“let me put it on you ” she said smiling
prince Kyle stared directly at her face for a while before stretching forth his left hand . she happily wore the wristlet on his wrist and fasten it
“it’s looks beautiful on you my prince ” she said clapping like a child but he prince didn’t show any happy expression at all he just retreated his hand , his eyes moved to the second wristlet which was still inside the box .
slowly he pick up the wristlet which got Erica confused as she stared at him
“does he also want to take that one too ” she thought with out saying a word . his cold gaze move up to her
“stretched her hand ” he said away his voice sounded dulcet to her hearing , she arched her brows
“your hi..”
“I said stretched your hand ” he yelled now glaring hard at her , she reluctantly did and he slowly held her wrist and pulled her closer .
Erica flinched under his touch just as usual his palm is extremely hot . prince Kyle fasten the wristlet on her wrist then he let go of her hand ,
she stared at her wrist and smile while playing with the wrist chain
“thank you ” she said and he nodded
and stood up then walk out of the music room with out saying a word to her . she smiled unconsciously as she stared at the close door
“he is weird in many ways ” she mumbled and quickly throw herself on a bench beside her . she stared at the ceiling still smiling
her mind drifted over to Gael and she couldn’t help but sigh as the thought of how he reacted last night .
“why did you flare up like that angel ,you look hurt and angry why “she ask herself while still staring at the ceiling ..
