Chapter Twenty Nine
Joni's POV
Two weeks. Not that I am actually counting but it's been two weeks since I talked to Leon and... I think I don't like it very much.
We're still seat partners alright but it's like I'm in a different world than he is. We are from different worlds but he's done everything to make me part of his own world but foolish me had to open her stupid wide mouth to ruin everything and now I'm on the outside looking in.
Lunch time came and I still couldn't find the courage to talk to him since he didn't want to talk to me. I was wrong to have vented my anger on him but the words seem stuck in my throat.
"Your Highness." Collins walks over to our table and bows. "Are you okay?".

Leon's POVI stare at Joni from across the room wondering why she is smiling. She hasn't stopped smiling since the incident with my iPad happened earlier today and a very large part of me think that she implicated her stepsister just because she could.She knew that I wouldn't get mad at her about it so she made her sister take the fall instead.The little minx. She'd get what is coming for her as well and it'd not be pretty."You won a lottery?". I ask her."No. Why would you think that?". She frowns at me as she attempts to shove a big piece of pizza into her mouth.I stare at her mouth as she chews and swallows her food momentarily forgetting what she'd asked me. I've always wondered how it'd feel to kiss her but I probably would never find out.I can't even hug her so that is saying something."L

Three days laterLauretta halted in front of Leon's room and hitched the bag higher on her shoulder. She'd been told that he'd spent the night in school and was in his room so she'd come straight here. She couldn't risk leaving the money in her locker and having it stolen.It was all of her mother's savings for almost three years. She was supposed to use it to buy more goods in her store but after they were visited by the police two days ago, her mother had had no choice but to cough the money out and now they were broker than a broken bottle.Lauretta raised her hand to knock, hesitated for a second before she took a deep breath and rapped on the door."Who is it?". Leon's voice asked from behind the door."Um... Good morning Your Highness. It's me, Lauretta." She replied. "I have brought... um the money."The key is turned in the lock and then opened to
Till I Met You Chapter Thirty Two
Andrei's POVI like to think that I'm an impartial King. My son Jaxon thinks I favor his brother Leonidas above all of them and that is not true. They've had me for eleven years since he was away and Leonidas has never resented me for not being by his side all those years which I'm grateful for so I let him make decisions on stuff that only concerns his 'friend' Jonina which unfortunately is also the cause of the recent squabble among them.In the years since I became King, I have never had any cause to hurt someone so bad, they'd wish they were never born - with the exception of Elroy of course. I think of all the teenagers in my kingdom as my children which is why I created a charity foundation to help the less privileged ones to get quality education and become whatever they want to be in future.My father was a good King but he never would've done half of what I've done for this people all by myself so it pains me
Till I Met You Chapter Thirty Three
Joni's POV "Are you happy now?". Celestina asks me. "You lied against my daughter that she broke Prince Leonidas's iPad and now because of you, she has also been suspended from school. Is it until you kill all of us before you're satisfied?". I stare impassively at my stepmother with my arms folded across my chest. It is a freaking Wednesday morning and I need to get ready for school but I don't think she'll let me go in peace until she's given me a piece of her mind. The woman is pure evil and I really don't want to have to deal with her this morning. It also doesn't help that... I woke up feeling cramps in my abdomen and I know exactly what that means. "You pleaded with me to beg the Prince to have mercy on her and he did." I remind her. "You should be happy he didn't banish her as he'd wanted to." "Just because she kissed him? Is he the first boy that a girl will h

Leon's POVI am literally the most stupid seventeen years old boy on planet earth. Yes. I am a very stupid and insensitive bastard and I feel like beating myself up.I would if I could but it's not possible. I could ask Jax to do me the favor but I know the idiot would take great pride in doing that and more. He'd probably retaliate for the times I'd humiliated him in front of mom and dad and unfortunately the guards as well.I sigh and look over at Joni. I'd panicked when she suddenly slumped and would have hit her head on the water closet if I'd not been fast enough to catch her. It'd have been an entirely different story - a story I'd probably be too dumbfounded to explain.I'd let my excitement overtake my senses and I'd committed a crime that is against the rules of platonic relationships.If there is something like that.I should probably get a

Joni's POV I don't like fighting with Leon but his actions sometimes gets me so mad that I feel like throttling him. I have never in my life been so scared of dying until that moment when I couldn't breathe and all my thought was that 'this is it, I'm going to meet my mother today and get out of this hellhole I call my life' but at the same time I wanted to live to see if I'd eventually get out of this hellhole I call my life. Sometimes.... I like him because he makes me happy, makes me forget about all of my troubles even if only for a short while but after the stunt he pulled today, I don't think I want to talk to him for awhile. I am working on my English homework when Lauretta walks up to me and I sigh knowing what she wants before she even opens her mouth. "Can I help you?". I ask without looking up. "I need some money." She says. "Like... Four thousand."
Till I Met You Chapter Thirty Six
"She said yes!". Leon screamed immediately he walked into the palace. "Mom! dad!". Anna rushed out into the hallway wondering why her son was screaming at the top of his voice. He'd looked so forlorn earlier and he'd even refused to eat dinner but now he was smiling from ear to ear which she found infectious and she joined him. "What's wrong baby?". She asked. "She said yes!". He exclaimed joyfully. "Uh... Who?". Anna frowned. "Joni Mom!". He beamed at her. Anna stared at him in surprise. "Jonina Samuels said yes... to what?". Leon let out a sigh wondering why his mother was so slow to catch up but his father walked out into the hallway before he could reply and he went to meet Andrei. "I did it dad! I didn't chicken out." He threw his arms around his father. "Thank you so much." &n

Maybe the gazebo?"."They're not there either.""Okay. I'll go look for them." He shut his laptop and stood up."Can I watch a movie on your laptop? You've got some mad movies." Andres said."Sure."
