When his first love is cruelly snatched away, HRH Prince Leonidas decides to put love and intimate relationships on the back burner. He succeeds for a while, until he meets Elisabeth, a striking young woman with a smart mouth and an attitude that warns him that she isn't a pushover. He is forced to ascend the throne he had previously rejected and due to the pressure to take a wife, he settles for Elisabeth but not without setting up rules. "Rule number one; don't fall in love with me". "Rule number two; no form of intimate touching is allowed." He hopes that their seemingly mutual dislike for each other would prevent lines from being crossed, but he's in for a surprise.

Prologue
ElisabethA year ago...A tune from one of those Disney cartoons kept ringing in my head as I got ready to wear my dress. I'd been admiring it since I got it last month and I still couldn't believe the D-Day was finally here. I was going to be married to the love of my life, my first and last crush Bennett Owens two hours from now. "You're so beautiful E." My best friend and maid of honor Julianne grinned at me. "Thank you." I grinned back. I blew out my breath and picked up my phone to check if I'd gotten any message from Ben but my screen was blank."You know you're going to see him in a few hours right?". Jules teased me. "That phone has not left your side in days.""Um... Excuse me "miss tease the nervous bride", I've not seen Ben for two days now." I reminded her. "The last time I saw him...""I know. You saw him at the club just before he was hauled away by his annoying friends for a two day bachelor party." Jules rolled her eyes. "I hate those guys.""No you don't." I snorte

Chapter One
ElisabethPresent time....I groaned as the music I was listening to suddenly stopped playing and the ringtone I set for he-who-shall-not-be-named began to echo in my car making me more irritated.It's been... a year since the fool fucked up and despite me calling him all sorts of derogatory names that I'd never heard of, he was relentless. He wanted me back but I wanted him to back the fuck off.I put on my bluetooth earbud and tapped it to answer his call but silence filled my ear."What?". I snapped. "Is it until I block your number or change my sim that you'll get the memo?"."It's been a year El. Don't tell me you're still mad." He's shocked."Are you for real right now Ben?". I almost screamed. "I have every right to be mad for the next millennium you motherfucker.""I was drugged! I didn't...""Save that for the whore you were seen coming out of El Dorado with last night Ben." I cut him off harshly. "You must think I'm stupid. Well, newsflash... I'm not!".Ben sighed. "She wasn

Chapter Two
LeonObnoxious...Spoilt...Entitled...Many years ago, I'd lived with the queen bitch of the obnoxious, spoilt and entitled rich girls club and after I severed all ties with said bitch, I vowed never to come across one, talk or even let my shadow get close to the other person's shadow until today.Maybe the world would really be a better place if everyone learned to apologize for the wrongs they did but some people's brains weren't just that developed. Like the... lady I met today.Mom told me never to be disrespectful to ladies and I tried my possible best to be polite to the undeserving ones but this lady today topped the charts.I alighted from my car and slammed the door shut as one of the young mechanics at the auto shop rushed up to me with a smile on his face."Good afternoon sir." He greeted."Hey Mike. What's up?". I shook hands with him. "Where's Victor?"."In his office." Mike replied. "Whoa! Who was the monster that did this?". His eyes widened when he saw the badly dente

Chapter Three
LeonEleven years ago..."They want my life? They can have it." I pivoted on my heel and stormed out of the sitting room leaving them shocked in my wake.I'd had enough of the bullying and it had to stop. It wouldn't stop so I'd stopped it myself. My life had no meaning anymore so they could fucking live it for me if they wanted. I no longer gave a flying fuck about the throne, about my surname... about being part of this family in general."Leon!". Dad bellowed as I made my way upstairs to my room. "Stop!"."I don't want to!"."I command you as your King to stop." Dad ordered.I could've continued on my way. I wanted to but I stopped because no matter how pissed off I was, I had plenty of respect for my father."What the hell was that about? What you said back there?". Dad jerked his thumb towards the sitting room. "That was a joke right?".I decided to play dumb because if I didn't, we'd get into a screaming match and I'd say something I'd never be able to take back whether it was m

Chapter Four
LeonI rolled out of bed a minute before my alarm rang by 5. I'd been awake long before that thinking about so many things but most especially the fact that today was my birthday and I was supposed to be in Mercia celebrating with my parents.They'd sent their gifts but I'd left them unopened in my home office just like I'd left their messages on read. Maybe I was just giving myself unnecessary heartache over nothing but I knew I wasn't ready to deal with anything concerning them just yet.I changed into my sweatpants, grabbed my towel and walked out of my room. I went downstairs, grabbed a bottle of water from the refrigerator and headed straight to my gym. I'd never once missed my early morning exercises ever since I recovered from that accident eons ago and though it wasn't really mandatory anymore but I couldn't stop.I ran on the treadmill for about forty minutes, lifted weights for twenty minutes and then I used the jump rope Liese had sent me last year which belonged to her dau

Chapter Five
ElisabethI stared - more like glared at the man in front of me and grabbed my bag but I didn't make a move to get up. He couldn't be the owner of Empire High school. I'd done my research even though said research had not provided me with pictures.I just knew that a young billionaire had bought the former Fairfield international school and changed its name to Empire High. I never expected that said billionaire was this... drop dead gorgeous stronzo.His eyes were gray like the sky before it rained and his hair was jet black - silky even from the looks of it and I let my traitorous mind wonder if one or both of his parents were foreigners. His jaw was sharp with a sensual mouth and a pointed nose."Have you come to destroy my school the way you did my car Duchess?". His sarcastic voice grated on my nerves. "My name is Elisabeth. I'd appreciate it if you stopped calling me that." I said through gritted teeth."It's a compliment." He shrugged."Is it?". I spat.He let out a beleaguered

Chapter Six
Leon"It's your birthday dude. Let up." I mentally chastised myself for the way I'd spoken to Elisabeth. I wasn't always that rude but she just knew how to push all of my buttons. Not even Ina had tried this hard or worse Philomena but she'd hit close to home when she'd mentioned that word 'girlfriend'. That word had made me think of her and I'd lost it.I took a deep deep breath and slowly exhaled removing all the bad vibes and anger from my system as I heard the clacking of heels outside the door. A part of me hoped that Barbara didn't bring her back while another part which I'd nicknamed "mom" scolded me for thinking like that. I could never win whenever that voice spoke."Come in." I called as Barbara knocked on the door.The door opened and Barbara poked her head in and smiled at me. "She almost got away sir but I found her." She announced."Thank you Barb." I said. "Send her in."Barbara nodded and disappeared then Elisabeth walked in and shut the door behind her. I glanced at

Chapter Seven
Elisabeth"Infuriating bastard." I mumbled to myself in the restroom later that day. We'd discussed my salary and several other things and I had to admit that he was a generous person but that was probably the only good thing he had going for him."Oh hello." A teacher I'd not met yet greeted me as she walked into the restroom. "I don't believe we've met. I'm Yasmin.""Nice to meet you Yasmin. I'm Elisabeth." We didn't bother shaking hands knowing where we were so we both settled for smiles. "How are you liking Empire High so far?". Yasmin asked.I chuckled. "The teachers are nice for starters and the students are well behaved." I said. "I think I'm going to like it here.""The students have to be well behaved. They have no choice when they have someone like Mr Sebastiani as their principal." Yasmin grinned."They're scared of him?"."I wouldn't call it fear. They just have a lot of respect for him. I heard from Mr Daniel that he has a temper which he doesn't like to show but when he

Chapter Eight
LeonI didn't want to be here. I'd finally replied my baby brother's text message ten hours after I received it and I'd texted him back telling him I'd like to meet up and now here I was sitting in my car in the parking lot of the hotel wondering if I should hightail it out of there.My brother was lodged in our hotel - one of the branches and I knew his room number and everything. I knew he was here with his girlfriend Noelle and he probably wanted to introduce her to me since he'd done so with the others and I was the only one left.I raked my fingers through my hair in frustration and shook my head. I thought I'd let go of the past when I left home but I'd not let go of shit.I was still mad at my brothers, sister and my father. I was still mad at myself for going after her in the first place. If I'd left her alone, she'd still be alive but no... my stupid heart had to fall in love with her and that love ended up killing her.I pressed the heel of my hands to my eyes as tears threa

Chapter Nine
Elisabeth Friday... the best day of the week and my favorite. It was also signalling the end of my first week teaching at Empire High school. I'd thankfully not had any run in with the boss and I was also thankful that my father had decided to let me be. He'd probably weighed the pros and cons of going against a man like Leonidas Sebastiani and decided that I wasn't worth the battle. "Hey Liss." One of the male teachers, Mr Daniel had also taken to calling me Liss no matter how many times I told him otherwise. My friends called me Beth, Lisa, Ellie or just plain old Elisabeth which was my fucking name. It was just my first week here so I didn't want to be rude and tell him off. "Hello." I was standing by the vending machine in the hallway trying to decide which soft drink I wanted and snacks as well. "So... I was wondering if you would be busy this weekend?". He asked me. I looked up at him. "Why?". "I would like it very much if you'd say yes to me taking you out on a date." H
