Someone Like You Chapter Fifty Eight
LeonI don't know what prompted me to come here but I couldn't stand the talk about multiple babies anymore. It felt like everyone was now an expert on the subject all of a sudden and it irked me which was why I had chickened out and called Liese to tell her the news but karma had decided that tonight was going to be my downfall and sent Beth here to hear what I had to say - my truth - because I'd been lying to her."Beth! Wait!". I ran after her as she turned and fled. King's meadow was a vast forest and she didn't know her way back home. I didn't want her to get lost or worse injure herself in her haste to get away from me. "Beth!"."Stay away from me!". She screamed.I caught up with her just as she almost tripped over a stone in her path and I steadied both of us."Let go of me!". She struggled against me. "Let go!".I released her and she whirled around immediately and slapped me across the face shocking me. I heard the guard behind me and lifted my hand to stop him knowing what

ElisabethMy words hung in the air as we stared at each other. Him with his mouth hanging open in shock and me... hurting because I had had no choice but to do this. I couldn't and didn't want to be his plaything, I wanted to be his wife - one he accepted and the mother of his child - also accepted. I wouldn't take anything less than that."What?". He rasped."You heard me." I said. "I want an annulment. This thing we call marriage is obviously not going to work so why stay in it?".He opened and closed his mouth several times then he turned and walked over to the floor and ceiling window and stared out."That's your final decision? An annulment?". He asked. "You're not going to think about the baby?"."I thought about the baby and I'm currently thinking about my baby which is why I think an annulment is best. You won't have to worry about me or the baby. It will be like I was never in your life." I told him. "I won't call you to tell you anything about the baby because like I told yo

LeonSleeping beside Beth and not being able to touch her was hell. I wouldn't have had a problem with it before when we were still at loggerheads but now that I knew what she tasted like, how she felt around me... I literally had to ball my fists to keep from reaching out to her."You're fucked." I muttered under my breath. "Leon." Beth's sleepy voice called."Hmm?"."Why are you talking to yourself?". She asked. "Having trouble sleeping?"."Kinda." I said. "You?"."I'm finding it hard to sleep." She groaned. "My back hurts.""Why didn't you tell me?". I sat up in bed and leaned back against the headboard. "Come here.""You'll rub my back?". She looked surprised."Who else will do that if I don't?". I frowned then sighed when she bit her lip looking uncertain. "Beth, come on... Seriously?". Just because I had said I didn't want the baby didn't mean I'd let her suffer when she was in pain. I was an asshole but not that much of an asshole."I'm sorry." She apologized. "I just... I tho
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty One
Georgina knew her father would flip out if he found out that she was walking down the street with her boyfriend without her guards. She'd actually threatened them with bodily harm if they didn't follow them at a safe distance instead of shadowing them and they'd grudgingly accepted. She was after all the Princess so they had no choice but to obey her."Feels good to not have them shadowing us." Christian remarked. "I should have done this sooner." She chuckled."But won't your father be mad at you if he finds out?". He asked her."I can handle him." She smiled. "He listens to me."Suddenly they heard shouts and then they saw a crowd of people chasing a boy their age with sticks and clubs. He was seriously injured but some kind of adrenaline kept pushing him to run until his luck ran out as he made to cross the road and a motorcyclist hit him and Georgina screamed."Your Highness! We have to take you to safety." Her guards rushed towards her and surrounded her."No! They'll kill him."

Leon"He's your brother?". I stared at the boy in front of me. "What do you mean he's your brother?".Christian sighed and looked down at his feet. "My father got his mother pregnant and left her to marry someone else. That was before he came to Mercia eighteen years ago." He said. "I didn't know about him until last year when I heard my parents talking about him.""Let me get this straight." I lifted a finger. "You watched those men beat up your brother and you didn't do anything?".He looked up at me then but briefly. "They were armed sir." "But my daughter stopped them from killing him." I said."She's the Princess. They have no choice but to listen to her... Sir." He replied."I see." I nodded. "Anything else you know about him?"."He has two sisters and their mother died three months ago." He said. "My father threw him out when he came to ask for help."I glanced at Georgina who was staring at him as if she was just seeing him for the first time. She was probably as stunned as I
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty Three
LeonI sat on the chair beside Imani's bed just staring at her still wondering why she'd been so happy to see me. I was thinking many things but mostly about the fact that she didn't really have long to live except she was able to get a new heart.How she'd been able to live without a new heart for many years. I'd bet that her brother didn't even have money to buy her drugs but she'd stayed healthy enough until now. The door opened and Georgina walked in with Andres. She was smiling at something he'd probably told her and I was glad for it because it meant that she was probably not upset anymore."How's she?". Andres asked."Stable but without a new heart, she's as good as dead." I replied. "I don't want Sarah to lose her sister.""She won't." Andres assured me. "I'm going to make some calls and find out if there's any way for us to get a new heart for her. I think Jax has some friends who are doctors as well.""You'll do that for me?". I was surprised."Of course. What are brothers
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty Four
BethThere was something different about Leon that I couldn't put my finger on as I stared at him. He was in the gym running on the treadmill with his earphones in his ears listening to music. He looked… more relaxed, like he didn't have a care in the world. Like… whatever had been eating him up inside had been solved and blown away by the wind. He was happier.I'd woken up and reached for him but his side of the bed was empty and once I saw that it was just five am, I knew he'd be in the gym so I got dressed and came down to watch his work out. I was standing in the foyer just watching and admiring his gorgeous body and I couldn't stop thinking about how lucky I was to be married to a guy like him."I love him." The thought came to my mind unbidden and I froze. I didn't know when or where or even how it happened but anyway it had happened... I was irrevocably and undeniably in love with my husband. I'd broken the rules and I was going to hell for that."Beth?". He called.I shivered
Someone Like You Chapter Sixty Five
ElijahI never dreamed that one day all my sufferings would be over. I'd always thought that I'd do odd jobs if I could get any to take care of my sisters but I'd never expected that I'd end up here... in the palace talking to the King of Mercia about what I wanted to do.I'd been discharged from the hospital and my sister Imani was feeling a little bit better which I was happy about. Sarah had been taken to see a doctor about her eyes and there was good news."I actually want to finish school sir. I mean high school so I can get a better job." I said. "I dropped out of school after my mom died so I could take better care of my sisters.""Christian told me you're not from here." He said. "You came here after your mother died?"."Yes sir." I nodded. "She told me about my father before she died and I thought that he'd be able to help us if we came here but he didn't even let me speak before he threw me out claiming that I'm not his son." I took a deep breath. "He called my mom a prostit
