"Love is not blind - it see's more, not less. But because it see's more, it is willing to see less." ~ Julins Gordon.-"Kyra adores lilies, she absolutely distastes roses-" Lucia chuckled. "She says they are so cliché and overrated." Lucia remembered because Khristian had once bought Kyra roses which she threw back at him harshly."What do you like ?" Elias smiled, just the sight of her made him fall even deeper in love. Lucia was taking a daily stroll near the river banks when she happened to bump into archduke Elias. He insisted that they had a conversation mostly about Kyra's likes and dislikes at which Lucia didn't seem to mind. Elias looked at the way the wind blew her hair, she had the cutest smile... he thought."I-I-i have never actually received flowers from anyone, i don't really have a favor. All flowers are beautiful...I guess." Lucia replied. Elias was smitten, it took him everything not to put a lock of her white blind hair behind her ear."That's absolutely absurd ! My
"Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, it's what you are expected to give which is everything." ~ Anonymous.-The minute Elias was out of the scene, Prince Alexius raced to hold her in his arms. Her vanilla scent sent him on the edge, it was amazing; he missed her with his entire heart and soul. He didn't care if she was mad as a hatter or if she was fuming, he just wanted to hold her, want was an understatement- he needed to hold her. She let out a gasp as he held her in his arms, he was intimidating but yet so vulnerable. A smile made its way to her lips when he knelt down, in a surrendering stance.. what he did next totally absorbed any anger she had be holding for him. He put his two hands her large stomach, laid soft kisses on the silk dress she wore. Lucia could feel his lips even with the fabric between them, she missed him. It was a horrible feeling to admit to but yet it made her so happy. "Theodore!" Lucia muttered breaking the comfortable silence. Pri
"If you don't like yourself, you can't like other people." ~ Robert A. Heinlein.-Chattering.Classical music playing.Buffet of food.Servers all around.High ceilings beautiful chandeliers.loads of chattering and clicking of wine glasses. The engagement gala, the Prince had been dreading had finally arrived. Everyone dressed up for this very event, didn't they all ? All the eligible elites were present. The Prince looked around his eyes searching, he felt as if he was being watched. He brushed it off and continued with the dreadful event. Princess Amelia smiled as she saw him, he returned the gesture but it wasn't as bright. "You look breathtaking." He said holding a flute of wine for her. "You don't look bad yourself." She gave him a short glance. It was awkward, they hardly ever had anything to talk about or say to each other. Anyone might have been wondering why she had agreed to this after alot of bickering and archduke Elias bending her over the royal balcony and giving her t
"Love and a cough cannot be hid." ~ George Herbert.-"I'm just glad the Prince is to wed soon then Elias and I can finally have our moment." "You know Elias is an angel, i love him so much Lucia." "Living in the palace comes with a lot of pressure.""I have dreamt about this my whole life.""I'm excited to give Elias a heir soon-" It was always about her. She had decided to visit her dear mother then dropped by to see Lucia who lived right next door. Kyra was excited but not once did she ask Lucia how she was doing or about her pregnancy. It had always been crucially that way."These are the new dresses, i wear as of now custom made for royalty." Kyra said proudly."It's beautiful." Lucia said softly, she had been feeling a little light headed so she honestly couldn't give much effort into the conversation."Mhm-" Kyra held her tongue, she had wanted to ask about the Prince when she was interrupted by the sudden opening of the wooden door. Khristian appeared, a wave of sadness cro
"It's much easier to turn a friendship into love, than love into friendship." ~ Anonymous.-Everyone was on full alert after what had happened. The King was in distress, the Prince felt anguished. Elias felt everything was going in his favor. The people of the independent city of Acamas awaited for the worst. Above all Lucia was beyond worried about Alexius. One of the mines in the capital town of Acamas, Giannopoulos has been fired upon by none other than Greece. There had been no warning but it was expected but not this soon. Over thirty-six miners died as a cause of this and fifty- two rendered weak and injured. The council immediately held a meeting. It included Sir Pantelis, King Dysmas, Prince Alexius Nikoloudis II, Elias Catheles, Lefter Stratigos; an elder as well as Commander Athan Manousakis the young strong leader of the Acamas army. They had also been joined by a messenger from France ; Henry Sylvestre."The people fear the worst is yet to come." Sir Pantelis said briefly
"The space between your heart and mine is the space we'll fill with time." ~ Dave Matthews Band.-Lucia was awake. She stared at the Greek God that slept beside her. This was heaven, inhaling his strong manly scent. Her heart fluttered looking at the way he looked so at peace. His blonde hair messy and the tiny stubble that only meant that he was in distress and had forgotten to shave earlier. She liked it, it tickled her whenever he kissed the crook of her neck. She wanted to run her fingers through his hair, again like when they usually satisfied each other. She didn't know if the bed was too comfortable or the fact that the Prince laid beside her. She loved him so much, she thought tracing her fingers on his sharp jaw. His perky lips looked so kissable, she had not kissed him in a long time. She couldn't help it so she pressed her lips against his, it was soft and slow when she was about to pull back. Prince Alexius kissed her hungrily, she giggled loving the way he moved his lip
"Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is growing up." ~ James A. Baldwin.-"Have you thought of any names ?" Khristian's mother asked Lucia whose mind was not even present in the conversation they were having."Lucia ?" She called softly bringing Lucia out of her thoughts. "Yes." Lucia replied."Theodore, if it's a boy. Krysanthe if it's a girl." Lucia smiled thinking about Alexius. "They are both beautiful, Khris will be happy to know you might name your baby girl Krysanthe after him." The lady with Auburn hair smiled softly. Lucia was taken aback, it wasn't even her first thought... infact Alexius is the one who had chosen these names. Krysanthe really resembled the name Khristian ? how weird she shook off the thoughts."Uh, yes." She nodded not really sure what to say."Mrs. Salavas I really apreaciate what you and Khristian are doing for me and my unborn child. If there was any way I could ever repay you-" She paused
"If you have respect and consideration for one another you'll make it." ~ Mary Durso.-One thing Khristian loved about working at the factory were the people he met and got acquainted to. They all sought of led different lives, they were all so friendly and kind. There was never a dull moment being there even if he had been the youngest amongst them, they made jokes and laughed while working. It was as if no one had problems back home as if it had all been forgotten. Not that he had problems but Kyra was a burden upon his heart and soul. He didn't know if he hated her, certainly couldn't be hatred, he felt sorry for her. Yes! Khristian felt sorry for her, he felt sorry for her because he knew he was a better man, he knew no one would ever love her the way he did, he certainly knew that she didn't deserve him. He pitied her because she based her happiness wealthy and titles."Your lunch is always delicious and well-made." Khristian chuckled talking to his friend Nikos who was well in
