Chapter 37

AMY.

I sighed before paying maximum attention to her as she was trying to avoid looking at my face at the moment.

And that will only happen when you are hiding from the truth of a matter. So what is the matter?

“What is the matter?” I asked, and she looked at me.

“It's about King Charles, hmmm…” She stammered, and I was already getting so anxious at the moment.

“So… speak!!” I said with a slightly tense tone,

“I am sorry, ma'am. I am just trying to say, he sent a message to us like twenty minutes ago, but I reported that you are still dressing!” She said, and I was shocked.

She forgot to say something since morning, and I have been lazing around like I was not late at all. Why would she do something like that?

I instantly stood up and looked at her. “So what is he doing right now?” I asked, and she shook her head a little.

“I don't know, but I am slightly sure he will be in his car waiting for us…” She said, and I interrupted her immediately.

“Why didn't you remember to tell me and hurry up to me first? I am now keeping him waiting, and I don't want to do that at all!” I said,

I began to rush my things and wear my clothes while she was trying to help as well.

“I was just following King Charles' instructions; he said I should allow you to do your thing and not rush!” She answered me, and I rolled my eyes.

“Sometimes it doesn't mean you should not alert me!” I replied to her, and she nodded.

We were done with everything within five minutes, and I walked towards the sitting room when the housekeeper caught up with me.

“Good morning Miss Amy!” She said, and I smiled upon seeing her.

“Good morning ma'am!” I replied, and she smiled.

“You have a very big day ahead of you! I wish you good luck and a perfectly established union!” she said, and I smiled and nodded.

“Thank you," I replied, and she paved the way for me to go through. I walked towards the car that was supposed to be the car while Anna was walking right behind me.

I was about to open the door when the young man was sitting gently inside the black tinted glass.

His stance immediately took my breath away as I looked at him. He is so handsome, and seeing him formally dressed for this occasion. I can't help but be so attracted to him.

His sleek hair that was so shining and his symmetrical face. It was like a Greek god came to visit Earth and dominate with his beauty.

His perfect body shape was truly what every woman would plead to have in their life, and I was totally immersed in looking at and understanding his beauty.

“You have your whole journey of life to keep admiring this face and falling in love over and over again!” He whispered, and that was when I realized I had stood at my spot frozen.

I guess I stood still the moment he walked out of the car. I blushed trying to hide my embarrassment, and he smiled.

“I am happy you are so attracted to this ugly man!” He added, and I looked at his face.

“Don't allow any lady in your clan to mistakenly hear or listen to you call yourself ugly!” I said, and he smiled. And his smile melted my heart. It was like a jelly topping on the ice cream.

“Why did you say that?” He asked, and I smiled.

“Because you are the most handsome man I have ever seen, and by information, you are the one every lady in the clan is crushing on!” I said, and he chuckled.

“Even with the scar on my face!” He said, and I subconsciously raised my hand and went ahead to trace his face with my hands.

I looked at the scar that was on the right side of his head, very faded and close to his hairline.

“This is a special beauty you have. It makes you more handsome and makes us believe you are not a ghost or a spirit but a human being!” I said, and he smiled.

“You have a sweet mouth!” He said, causing his warm breath to fall on my face and my neck.

The warm sensation finally made me notice that we were so close to each other and my hands were on him.

“I…” I stammered and withdrew my hands, but he held my waist at the same pace.

“Thank you for accepting me, Miss Amy!” he said, and I smiled.

“Thank you too for accepting me, King Charles Lavista!” I replied to him, and he held my hand and led me to the car.

He opened the door and guided me into the car before shutting the door and walking over to the other side and entering the car.

“Drive!” He commanded his driver before picking up my hand.

“It's sweaty!” He pointed out, and I sighed and looked down at his hands, which were holding mine.

“Are you nervous?” He asked, and I looked up at his face. He had a straight face, but that couldn't hide his worries at the time.

“I am!” I said honestly, and he nodded.

“I am nervous too, but I am sure if I really want to spend the rest of my days with anyone, I want to spend them with you and nobody else!” he said, and it was like magic.

My nervous heart calmed down immediately. “I am also certain that if my days were as short as a grain, I would spend every inch with you!” I replied, and he smiled.

“Together, we can do this!” He said and moved closer to me. And again I stood there frozen as he moved closer and closer, and his hands went up to my neck.

He caressed it gently, and I almost shut my eyes out of pleasure, and he kissed my forehead immediately.

It was a gentle kiss and so refreshing. He kissed my forehead just like that!
