Eddy Rovski’s POV
“What?! No, father, I will do no such things,” I said as I was looking at my father, King of Hungary, King Peter, as he was looking outside the window after he dropped the bomb on me.
“You have to do it, Ed. This is the duty for our people,” he said as he turned to look at me. I scoffed as I was crossing my hands in front of my chest.
“Well, riddle me this. Did you marry mum for the sense of duty?” I asked as I was staring at him. He turned to look at me with his piercing grey eyes. It was the distinguishing feature of us, the Rovski.
“Yes, of course, I did,”
“But you love your wife, correct?” I pressured him.
“Yes, we have known each other for quite some time before we married each other,” he replied as I threw my hands up in the air.
“There you go. You married mum because you love her, not because you had a sense of duty with her,”
“Eddy, you have to. The Finnish princess was my goddaughter. It will do us good for the whole family including my best friend’s,” he insisted that he will use any means to get me to agree to his condition. I sighed as I was running my hands in my hair.
“You will have to fly there and introduced yourself to her and perhaps if she was to your liking—“
“Did you not see the news?” I asked him as he did not know that the current situation has changed. He blinked at me as I was chuckling at his reaction.
“About what?” He asked while frowning.
“That Princess Katherine Abigail Remes will be hosting a competition to find the best suitor that will be marrying her in one-month time. It was the grand prize for the competition, her hands in marriage,” I said as my father blinked a few times.
“Oh, Aaron did not tell me that,”
“Of course not. It was her idea which was ridiculous as no other royalty ever done it before,” I said as I was putting my hands on my hips. I sighed as I was looking at the portraits of my ancestors before me. They were not happy with their spouses in the picture.
Or maybe it was the way that the painter asked them to look.
I closed my eyes as I was sighing. I know that sooner or later, I would have to find a wife when my father decided to give the throne to me.
Counting on my sister was a no-no since she was happy with her Italian husband.
I sighed once more as I know my destiny as the Crown Prince and the heir to Hungary throne will be inevitable. I have to find a wife sooner or later but I’m sure as hell Princess Katherine will be the one that I wanted by my side.
Besides, it was obvious that she will rule over her own country instead of mine so the matchmaking was a terrible one if you asked me. I smiled as my father did not know about that information. I heard that Princess Katherine was in her dilemma not much different from mine.
Surely she did not want another royal pain in the ass on her conscious.
An idea started in my mind. If I can prove that Katherine was not the one for me, my father would let me off the hook and I will have another time to think about this fiasco.
“Well, I will do as you wish father but I wanted to be undercover,”
“Undercover? What forever for?” He asked as I was smiling at him.
“We cannot expose ourselves to the public let alone a royal was taking a spot in the contest. What would our people say about me?” I asked him as he seems to think about the idea of it. It’s true and I think I will have much more freedom to do what I wanted when I was not a prince.
“Hmm, you’re right. But what will you put as your name then?” He asked as I was smirking at me.
“Why, Eddy Dobulski of course. Besides, it’s mum’s maiden name, aren’t they?” I said as he groaned at me.
“You’re just like your sister. Why can’t I figure her out when she pulled that stun a year ago?” My father asked when he pinched his nose bridge.
“Because she’s brilliant,” I said as I was smiling before I went out to set my plan in motion.
Prince in disguise, here I come!
*~*~*~*~*
I went to the location that I heard Katherine will be doing the selection before the contestants can advance to the next level. I don’t care much to pass. I wanted to get this off my shoulder and right now, it was playing with my favor.
I was in disguise and no one knows about me. I have to keep it that way.
“Hey, watch it!” Someone yelled at me in Finnish that feels like they were cursing at me. I shivered as I never been vulgar in my life but right now, I think it was time for me to be tough.
“So much for laying low,” I said as I was looking at the location of the restaurant. It was not suitable for me as I hated crowded people. Even at my parties back in Hungary when I was supposed to make an appearance which was only for a moment before I went out of the way.
I sighed as I shook my head. Maybe I just went out of this contest and never returned until one month was up. Yeah, that sounds like a plan.
Until I bumped into someone.
“Argh!” The feminine voice was crying as I was stumbled back on my ass before the lush body of a woman was on top of me. I was stunned as I never notice how the woman’s body was before. You see, I was an obedient child since I have to set an example.
And right now was not a good example at all.
“Oh my God! I am so sorry,” I said in English as I was looking at the woman who was on me. Her blonde hair was shining in the sunlight. I don’t notice about a woman’s physique before because I was not interested but right now, I was very interested in the person that was on top of me.
“It’s alright. My bad,” she replied in English as well. Its British accent was making me turned to jelly. It was angelic and sweet that I could sleep on it.
“If you could just…remove your hands please,” she said as her eyes were staring into mine. It was the odd color you see. It’s almost like purple but maybe the light was playing a trick on me right now.
“Right, sorry,” I said as I was pushing her off me after I took off my hands around her tiny waist. She was the perfect lush body in my hands.
Wait, what?
“I hope you were not in any injuries that I don’t know about,” I said as she was dusting her sundress. She turned her purplish gaze upon me and I stilled for a moment.
“Well, thank you. I don’t get hurt easily you know,” she joked as I was laughing at her statement.
“Of course, you are better than me then,” I said as she was smiling at me. We were silent for a moment before she cleared her throat.
“I should go now,” she said as she was inching to get on with her life. I nodded before I waved at her goodbye as she glanced at me over her shoulder as she was running toward the corner before she disappeared.
I sighed as I looked at the restaurant that was still packed with people punching their way through. I shook my head as I rolled my eyes at their brutal force.
Men without dignity!
I was about to walk away before I saw the envelope on the ground. It must be from the woman that I was bumping into. I don’t know where she was right now but when I turned to look at the front, I stilled as I was reading what it said:
If you wish to get out of the matchmaking that your father’s asked you to, come to this address and bring this envelope with you. I’ll help you out. ~Princess Katherine~
I blinked a few times as I was looking at the envelope before I smiled. I think Katherine knew exactly what I wanted and I must say that woman played her part well.
“Well, it looks like I was not the only one wanted out of this matchmake,” I said as I was opening the envelope and went there as quickly as I can.
Taylor Baker’s POVI was sighing as I was looking out the window. I cannot believe that on my 23 birthday that my father refused to let me out to meet with my friends. This is what you get when you were born into the royalty.I sighed as I was looking out into the city of my country, the capital of them all, the place where the industrial revolution began. I just hoped that I would not have to be here sometimes. Don’t get me wrong, I loved London but sometimes, I cannot bear the thought of being elsewhere.But right now, I wanted to.The door of the library that I occupied was being opened and my father, the Duke of Sussex, Hugh Baker, strode in as he was looking at me. I smiled at him before I was closing the book that I was reading.“Father, this is a delight. I thought you were visiting the queen today?” I said before I was getting up from the couch that I sat on. I walked to the bookshelves before I was putting the book on the it again as I tu

Taylor Baker’s POVI was looking at the old man that was sitting across me from the dining table. We were having some dinner as I was sipping on the soup that was being served before the main course. The vivid green eyes were making me a little bit uncomfortable.My father just introduced him as Levine Virtanen. I heard that name before because he was one of the ruthless businessman that control half of the Finland as well as his grandsons that were married into the royalty.This was beginning to make me wonder, why was he here? I heard that all of his grandsons have been hitched and I don’t think that he would be here if he was not planning something with my father.Unless it was about me and my future.I took the glass that contained the white wine that was being served for tonight’s main course. It was leaving the floral scent and taste to my mouth before the old man was dabbing his mouth with a napkin. Then he spoke.“I see, this is a ve
Eddy Rovski’s POVI was finally being admitted into the Hostel as I was showing the invitation that I got from the Finnish Princess that was supposed to be my fiancé. But of course, that would be the easy part. The hard part was to meet my roommates since I will be sharing the room with them.When I first came, I don’t know where the room was until there was the door. 2-D will be my next stop to sleep and change my clothes. I went to open the door and there it was, a very handsome man with blonde hair and dark green eyes. He was putting his stuff on the top bunk of the double decker bed.“Hello, is this the room for—oops never mind. I am in the right place,” I said before I was moving my stuff to be put on the bed that I have claimed as my own. I turned to look at the young man before I was introducing myself to him.“Eddy Dobulski, nice to meet you,” I said as I was smiling at him. the young man was looking at me before he moved to shake my hand as well.
Eddy Rovski’s POVIt has been a quiet night as I was dreaming that I was in Hungary with my sister, losing myself when I lost the bet with her and I have to give my monthly allowance to her. Gosh, I think my sister was the worst sibling ever.But I loved her anyway.Then, of course, my dream was being interrupted when I was hearing Tyler’s voice in my head as I was trying to ignore it. Being Tyler Virtanen, I know that would be impossible. Look at how he did with Leo as well.“Eddy, wake up. Wake up!” he said as I was trying to ignore him but being Tyler, he would not leave me well enough alone.“Ugh, go to sleep! Why are you doing this, Tyler?!” I groaned before Tyler was pulling my duvet. I was shivering before he was pulling me up to sit on the bed. I protested him but he was being rally stubborn at this moment.I wished I kill him in his sleep later.“Come on, I think Leo is up to something,” he said as I was yawning when I know it would
Eddy Rovski’s POVLeo turned to us when it was obvious that we were uncomfortable with their conversation when Kate smiled at us. I was sipping some coffee as Tyler was smirking like he was charming Kate or something.But he was not, Kate was deep with Leo now to be affected at all.“Hi, you guys must be Leo’s new roommates,” she said as Tyler was looking at her.“Yes, you’re the servant that came to send for Leo’s clothes. Daresay, why would you do that?” Tyler asked before Kate smiled. Yup, definitely plotting something. I was making sure that my face was not giving any clue that I know who Kate really was. I was smirking inside as I know there will be a day that I have to tell them the truth.Pity, since I love to make sure that they stayed in the shadows.“Well, his backpack was torn and the clothes were dirty because some thugs were harassing Leo. But not to worry, the clothes will be delivered to him as soon as possible.” Kate said before Le
Taylor Baker’s POVI swear I am going to kill the designer of this dress that I am wearing right now, I mused when I was trying so hard not to give away that I am an imposter of a Finnish Princess. I cannot believe I used my Drama and Theater degree from the most prestigious university in London to do such thing.I sighed before I was stepping into the high heels that were designed with this dress.“You look wonderful, darling. I cannot think of anything else that would be any less than perfection for this ball,” Tony, a high-end paid cosmetologist and wedding planner said before his wife Christina, was frowning at him.“Can’t you see that she was sucking in her breaths right now? I know you would tie those laces too tight. I cannot believe it,” she said as she was undoing some of the laces that were tightening my chest and stomach before I can breathe normally again.Thank heaven for his wife to know that I am in pain.“Bella, she’s doing great b
Eddy Rovski’s POVI blinked my eyes as I cannot believe what I was seeing right now. Was I imagining things that I am seeing in all glory of the Finnish princess that I know was not someone that was blonde and have amazing purple eyes.If anything, this woman was not Finnish at all with her English accent screaming all over her.I blinked my eyes before the young woman was glaring at me. I smiled before I was offering my hands for her to take to stand up from the ground.“Are you alright?” I spoke in English since she was not from here. Just like me, a foreigner that was trapped in the world of royalty.“I will not end up here just to get someone like you to help me,” the feisty woman said before she got up on her own as she was dusting her backside.Her very noticeable backside as the clothes were clinging to her curves. I gulped before I was avoiding my eyes. Control, Eddy, control.“I see that you are not staying in the ballroom,” I said
