Kieran's POV:

The jet cut through the clouds.

I sat by the window, my phone clenched tightly in my hand and I am sure it was on the verge of snapping into two pieces. My thumb kept on refreshing the news page over and over again, even though I already knew what I would find.

    “You don’t get to decide how much I can take,” he said bitterly. “You don’t get to decide anything for me. And the fact that you think you do.. it proves you never saw me as your equal.”“That’s not true,” I said, stepping closer to the door. “You are the strongest person I know. You have survived t

  • Bratty Prince And The Bodyguard    Chapter 204

    Adrien's POV:The King said something to me that morning that I couldn’t forget, no matter how many steps I took through the palace.“No matter what Kieran says or does,” he had told me with a weight in his eyes I had never seen before, “you do not give up on him.”I gave him my word. And I never br

    Kieran's POV:He took a step closer. “Please. Just listen to me.” “I said stop!” I shouted, stepping back. “I don’t want your love. Not if it’s built on lies!” The King stayed silent. While I hated that part of me still wanted Adrien to explain. To make it better. But he couldn’t. Not anymore. “I came here today to talk about an investor,” I said, hollow. “Someone who could help us. Someone I thought might save us.” I looked Adrien in the eyes. “But I didn’t realize the person I needed to be saved from was standing right in front of me.” He didn’t defend himself. Good. Because I wasn’t sure I could take another breath without choking. Just when I was about to turn to leave, he dropped to his knees in front of me, hands open, eyes red. “I am sorry,” he whispered. “I will do anything. I will take the punishment. I will face whatever you need me to. Just don’t shut me out.” But I already had. My jaw clenched and my heartache. I did not stay there any longer. I knew I would lose i

    Kieran's POV:“Kieran...” “For how long?!” I shouted. “How long have you known he was the one trying to destroy everything?” Adrien flinched. “Just a few days. I was verifying it before I-” “BEFORE YOU WHAT?!” My voice broke into a scream. “Before you played the hero again? He stepped forward. “I didn’t want to hurt you.” “Hurt me?” I laughed, loud and raw. “You have been LYING to me! Pretending! What else don’t I know about you, huh? What else are you hiding, Adrien?” His face crumpled. “I wasn’t pretending. I love you. I didn’t lie about how I felt.” “Don’t.” I pointed at him. “Don’t you dare say that. Don’t you dare stand there and say you love me while you have been playing God with my life.” He looked like he had been slapped. His mouth opened, but no sound came. “I trusted you,” I whispered. “I trusted you more than anyone. And now I find out you have been sitting on this while I was tearing myself apart.” He tried to speak again, but I raised a shaking hand to stop him

  • Bratty Prince And The Bodyguard    Chapter 201

    Kieran’s POV:I didn’t come here to eavesdrop. No, in fact I came here with a little flickering hope that everything is going to be alright. I wanted to speak to my father about an investor who had shown interest through back channels. I had finally thought that this struggle was going to be over,

  • Bratty Prince And The Bodyguard    Chapter 200

    Adrien's POV: “So you think I should trust you? Let a man I barely know take a stake in the most vulnerable part of my kingdom?” He paused, "Also, does Kieran know about this?" Suddenly he looked worried. “I don’t expect blind trust,” I said. “I am just asking you to listen and no, Kieran does not know. I wanted you to be the first person to be aware of this.” The King stood and walked to the window, hands clasped behind his back. The light filtered through the sheer curtains, casting stripes across his back. “I know Kieran,” he said after a while. “He won’t accept your help. He will see it as pity. As interference and what you are trying to do is to challenge his trust further.” “I know,” I said quietly. “But I can’t just watch him fall apart.” The King turned to face me again, and this time, his voice was hard. “And I can’t let you buy your way into power.” That stung. But I remained composed. “I don’t want power,” I said. “If I did, I would have taken it long ago. I came to
