Chapter 8 AGREEMENT

"Here's your suite, my lady," the two maids who led the way said to Hazel as they entered the suite.

Hazel gasped and came in, she ran into the bedroom and gasped even louder.

"This...is all mine?" She asked.

"Yes, my lady," they both said at once.

"Wow," Hazel covered her mouth and continued looking around; everything looked so new to her. Has she ever lived in a room as beautiful and big as this? Never?

This is almost like her whole house.

"We will be the ones serving you from now on, my lady, so if you need anything, please call us right away.

Hazel faced them.

"You can just call me by name..."

They shook their heads.

"That's not possible, my lady."

"Oh...then may I know your names?"

"My name is Lila, and she's Ana,"

"Okay, Lila and Ana, nice meeting you. Let's get along well," Hazel smiled.

"We look forward to that, my lady," They bowed, and Hazel nodded.

"Is there anything else you want us to do for you, my lady?" "No, I'm okay.

I just need to take my bath and sleep," Hazel smiled.

"We will prepare your bath..."

"No, never mind, I will use the shower instead, thank you," Hazel immediately said.

Lila and Ana bowed before going out of the suite.

Just as Hazel was about to sit down, she heard the door open again, and Isabella came in. "My princess,"

Hazel immediately bowed. Isabella smiled.

"Do you like the suite?" She asked.

"Of course I do, I love it," Hazel replied.

"So your admission is here, and the date for freshers to resume is there as well," Isabella handed over a file to her, which she immediately took and opened.

A gasp escaped her lips.

"That's so fast,"

"You should thank the king in the morning;

I think freshers are resuming in about a month's time, so for the remaining time you have, you can get to learn more about the palace and family.

What do you think?" Isabella asked, and Hazel smiled.

"I will do that, my... sis," Isabella said, and Hazel nodded.

"Today's gone, tomorrow is another day, so....I will explain things better to you..but most especially, we need to go to the mall;

I learned you didn't come with any clothes,

"Thank you, my...I mean...sister,"

"You're welcome; freshen up and get a rest. Goodnight,"

Hazel bowed and watched her walk out of the room.

She followed a minute later and locked the door before returning to the bedroom.

Her mind went to her mom, and she was beginning to wonder how she's doing. Would they allow her to visit her mom occasionally?

She's the prince's fiancée, right?

That means she has enough freedom to do that, right?.

After thinking for a while, she went into the bathroom.

_PRINCE ALEX'S QUARTERS_

Alex was sitting by the pool, shirtless, his legs dancing inside the water. He was on a call with his friends, and they wouldn't stop teasing him.

Lucius: So you're saying she's not pretty at all??

Victor: Or she doesn't have big ass and boobs like you said?

Alex: She has none; she's not my type at all. I don't know why Father would pick such a girl for; she even looks like a virgin.

Lucius & Augustus: (Laughs out)

Leon: So you don't like virgins??

Alex: What am I supposed to use a virgin for? You think I want a girl who acts all innocent on bed? Do I look like a romantic guy who would start pouring out kisses all in the name of wanting to fuck a girl??

All the boys: (Laugh uncontrollably)

Augustus: You're so crazy, guy; how the hell did you get into the royal family?

Alex: I still don't know; why would they force me into this family? I prefer something like a mafia family.

They laughed again. Just then, Cyrus, Alex's personal guard, showed up and walked over to him; he bowed.

"What do you want?" Alex asked.

"Princess Natalia is here, your highness; what should I tell her?" Cyrus asked.

"Bring her here," Alex said.

Cyrus bowed and walked away.

Victor: Whoa...Natalia is still there?

Alex: Yeah, she might be leaving tomorrow.

Leon: Why not tonight? You guys will see each other in school anyway; you're engaged now.

Lucius: Dude, stop acting like a pastor.

Augustus: He doesn't want Alex to cheat on his fiancée.

Alex: Fuck the engagement; I'm just doing this because of Father, and nothing is gonna stop me from having fun. Goodnight, guys.

The boys: Goodnight.

Alex hung up as soon as Natalia appeared.

"Hey," She smiled and sat beside him. She pecked his lips. "How are you?"

Alex asked.

"You don't expect me to be fine, right? I still don't know why the king ignored me and picked that dirty pauper instead," Natalia scoffed.

"Does that matter? I don't like her anyway," Alex muttered.

"Of course, it matters; you should have just rejected her," Natalia said, and Alex sighed. He should have, but anytime he remembers the king's health, he would stop. He doesn't want anything that will trigger his illness at this point. He's not ready for that crown yet; he would do anything to keep the king alive if only he had the power to do so, but unfortunately, he possesses no powers at all.

"Can we forget about that and talk about something else?" He asked.

Natalia grabbed his face and slammed her lips on his own in a hungry pace; Alex pulled her by the waist and made her sit on his laps, then the kiss became deeper.
