Royal Engagement 소설 & 이야기

The night Justin Lane proposed to his first love, I stood on the terrace of the thirty-third floor, holding a report that diagnosed me with late-stage stomach cancer. Through the windows, I watched him kneel and slide the pink diamond ring that had once belonged to me onto another woman's finger. I endured the excruciating pain and stayed out on the terrace beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows so I wouldn't disturb their beautiful moment. Then Justin saw me. There was no panic or guilt in his eyes. There was only disgust. From the other side of the glass, he sneered and pointed toward the edge of the terrace. Then, he mouthed the words to me. "If you want to jump, then jump. Enoug

There would be expectations. Responsibilities. A Kingdom. People would bow to me. People would call me Your Majesty. Holy shit. What the fuck had I done? The nurse apparently noticed the panic crossing my face. “Are you feeling all right?” “Yep.” Lie. “Your heart rate increased.” Fucking monitor. “I'm engaged.” She smiled. “Congratulations.” “To the King.” Her smile widened. “Yes, Your Majesty. I'm aware.” Right. Of course she fucking was. The bathroom door opened.

Pink ended her brief report in an instant. “Oh, that is interesting.” Royal and Grand was the name of the personal soldiers of the First and Second. Royal was the personal soldiers of the first king while Grand was for the second King. Eagle agreed with his brother. It was indeed interesting. All of them had put their hands on the deck on unalive Shadow. “So, it means everything is going well?” Eagle asked for confirmation. “It’s going well.” Pink nodded. “Good.” He hummed. “Pink.” “Yes, My Emperor?”

Stay away from the royals. I clenched my fists. Elijah and Tony were also here but it was next to impossible for them to cross the sea of all the guards to reach the royals. But the moment I had been waiting for had finally arrived. A hush fell over the gathering as a trumpet sounded, signaling the entrance of the royal entourage. A procession of warriors dressed in shimmering silver armor entered first, their steps synchronized, their presence commanding. Behind them, high-ranking nobles of the royal court followed, their elegant robes flowing as they walked. And then, finally, the ruling family arrived.

“It is everywhere.” He pulled out his phone and walked closer, shoving it right in our faces. “It is all over Wippygram.” I stared at the screen. Posts. Headlines. Pictures. Vampire symbols. Royal tags. People screaming congratulations in the comments like it was some fairytale ending. VAMPIRE PRINCE VICTOR ANNOUNCES ENGAGEMENT TONIGHT. OFFICIAL ROYAL EVENT CONFIRMED. My throat went dry. Jane leaned in closer, scrolling through it herself, her face slowly tightening. “This is real,” she muttered. “These are verified accounts.”

he informed me. I knew the meaning behind those words. By 'perfect', he meant that Alpha Arnold had a reputation good enough to be a part of our royal family but also foolish enough to serve as a puppet for my father. "The engagement is next week. It'll be just a short ceremony for the sake of formality with..." he started blabbering. Not being able to take any more of his bullshit, I cut him off, "I'll be there." Before he could say anything in return, I was already making my way toward the exit.

Guess we gave each other the silent treatment. “I’m all ears, tell me”, he said totally relaxed and calmly folding arms. “Don’t take it personal but I’m being threatened” I spit out immediately. They were going to flee this night and I had no time. “By who, if I may ask?”, he says looking at me. I silently wondered if he had a secret affair with the maid that just left. I didn’t know their traditions here but back in England, a royal is only permitted to have a partner. Anyway… why do I care?

But she chose to be shameless for a while so that she can enjoy these moments. ****** "That's my fiancee" George Scott introduced Elsa to his friends while Elsa stood there like a show piece. She was dressed in a royal blue single sleeve gown and her features are well highlighted with her light makeup. Everyone is just attracted to her royal beauty while George was very proud to announce his fiancee. "She was the one who was engaged to Alex, right?" One of them asked as everyone looked at the entrance where Alex too joined them with his wife, Clara. They were university friends and Elsa cursed her fate to be a part of Alex's friends circle. She felt humiliated.

I could feel the magic in the air, a ripple of power surging through me as the bond solidified. As soon as the last word left my lips, the grand hall erupted into applause. The sound was thunderous, a roar of approval and celebration that filled the space and reverberated through my chest. I glanced around, seeing smiles, nods of approval, and cheers from the crowd. The warriors, the pack members, and even the visiting Alphas—everyone was on their feet, acknowledging my place as their Royal Beta.
