ESTEFAN'S POVEarlier that day, my dad and I went to see Mr Knight to finalize the deal. As expected, his daughters agreed to the marriage and he was more than willing to give away any of them in exchange for the business expansion we were offering him which made the whole thing easy. Leah showed up at the company right after we finished signing the contract and invited me to eat lunch with her. She kept on going about how lovely it would be if we got married since people were already shipping us together and all I did was nod. She made sure to remind me that she would be wearing a purple dress for the party before we parted ways which meant she wanted me to wear a matching colour of the tie. That evening, I stood in front of my mirror all dressed up, trying to see if I would be able to knot the tie but I failed on every attempt. I was about to chuck the tie aside and go without it when a knock sounded on my door.I yanked it open without checking who it was and Esmeralda pushed pas

LEAH'S POVDescending the stairs, my lips stretched in a smile as I spotted Estefan waiting at the bottom of the stairs in a black Armani suit. He had his side turned to me as he spoke on his phone, giving me a nice view of his perfect sculpture jawline which twitched as he spoke. He turned to me, scanning my body with his beautiful amber eyes that shone like a gem.He held his hand out to me when I got to the bottom of the stairs. "You look beautiful." "Thanks." I blushed, taking his hand as I watched my reflection in his eyes. "I must say you are looking very handsome today." He nodded. "Shall we?""Sure." I hooked my hand in his as he led me toward the main door. "Wait!" A familiar voice stopped us from behind. We turn around to see Rhea walking toward us with a gift bag in her hand. She turned to Estefan with a smile. "I just wanted to thank you for the books. Esmeralda told me." She jogged back in the direction she came from.Turning to look at Estefan, I caught him smirking at

RHEA'S POVAfter absorbing myself in books and movies throughout the week, I found more inspiration to keep writing. I was getting closer to the end of the book and I couldn't help but feel happy about it. I finished the chapter I was working on just in time for Leah to hop into the house with a big smile on her face. She slumped on the couch and I raised my eyebrows at her. "What got you all smiling?" "Prince Estefan and I spent the most romantic day together." She beamed.My eyes scanned her face and I noticed the lipstick she wore this morning was gone which gave me a clear image of what she meant by a romantic day. "Did you use protection?" I blurted out."Rhea! I can't believe you think I would be so cheap to sleep with a guy I just met." Her eyes widened."You are already thinking about marrying him the first day you met him so don't blame me for thinking you already did the deed with him." I shrugged."Well, guess what? I didn't." She glared at me and folded her arms as we

RHEA'S POVOur house Headmaid, Mrs Anderson walked into the living room with a brown box in her hand. "There is a package for..." Leah who was sitting on the couch adjacent to me which was unusual on a Monday afternoon didn't let Mrs Anderson finish her sentence as jumped from her seat and took the box from her."It's for Rhea." She threw the box on the couch next to me and hissed as she resumed her initial position."You would have known that if you had let her finish her sentence." I shook my head. "And besides, I can't believe that you expected the Royal Family of Spain to send their proposal letter through a courier guy." "What did you want me to expect? It's been three days since Estefan left and I've not heard anything and it's making me anxious." She whined in frustration. "Why don't you just call him and ask what's going on?" I suggested."I've tried but he hasn't been picking up my calls since he left." She pouted."Maybe he's busy with some work since he has been here for

ESTEFAN'S POV(ROYAL PALACE OF MADRID)That boring afternoon, I sat in my study doing the loads of paperwork that my brother left for me. As the crown prince with a lot of responsibility, Esteban would share most of his work with me to create some free time for himself. I wouldn't be surprised if he still requests my assistance when he becomes the king.The door opened followed by the annoying voices of Esteban and Esmeralda. Esteban walked in a plain white shirt and black jeans. If anyone was to come across him, they wouldn't even think of him as the Crown Prince of the country. While Esmeralda on the other hand was in an expensive Gucci dress. I rubbed my temple as I groaned. "What do you guys want?""We just came to see how you are doing." Esteban shrugged as he perched on my desk. "That's for you." Esmeralda sat on the chair in front of my desk. "I heard you sent the proposal letter today. So who was it for?" I knew from the moment they walked in that they had some hidden agend
