The Royal Highness

Chapter 9 Hard to endure....

I clenched my fingers with anger to hit the door of that hall to make them keep quiet but controlled myself remembering the fact that I was here as a dummy husband and a slave that is it,

I turned rearward to go back to the room and bumped into Amber who was probably going to the hall,

"what the heck? can't you see? I told you not to roam around, then what the hell are you doing here?"

she started yelling at me rubbing her head which just hit my chin,

" I was just passing by" I explained as I felt bad for her about what I heard just now,

She heaved a sigh glaring at me with the edge of her eyes, till she completely passed by my side,

I moved forward, but thought for a second, that if she went in the hall they would give her a hard time, I went back to stop her from going in, but before I reached there, she already entered the hall,

I stood there to listen to how she'd be defending herself,

************

Amber's POV...

"Here comes the seductive princess"

Claire, my second sister said mocking me,

I am the smallest of five sisters, including three of my cousins, that was the reason why Father and Charles both dote on me, making them jealous of me.

"shut up... Claire don't dare open your mouth"

I defended myself, I was here for water but never did I think, that I would meet these ladies here whom I have been avoiding from the morning,

"How dare you?"

she yelled at me with a gaze of anger, but I didn't hesitate, my eyes met her gaze with an equal will,

"Put your head down, Amber," shouted Colleen, my first elder sister, and Claire's sister, they are born to one mother, and are equally arrogant,

I stared at her surprisingly, as this was the first time they talked to me like that,

"What...? What did I do?" I reasoned as she was coming to me with annoying anger.

"In terms of age, status, and royalty Claire is far above you, actually everybody is above you now, so you better keep your head and tail all along" she declared and I was raged listening to that,

my mother was the First Lady, Queen of my father, she was a princess from a well-known kingdom, as her children I and Charles, no one ever dared to disrespect us.

Charles was selected as the crown prince as he was the eldest of all my brothers, now these mere girls are here to calculate my status.

" Colleen, I never expected this kind of statement from you" I surprisingly asked her, Colleen being the eldest of all the princesses, was always dignified, though she never liked me, she never dared talk back or mocked me this way before,

" So, being married to a slave, you expect us to respect you? that's absurd?"

ha ha ha ha......

The hall chimed with the loud laughter of them all,

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fingernails in my palm, that they made a rec mark in my fair hands,

I turned back to get out of this ruthless conversation, but they kept cloning me recklessly,

"Did you learn how to clamp your tail from your husband?"

my cousin Dorrie, who was once a good friend to me taunted smirking,

I stopped and glared at her expressing myself, that I never expected this comment from her, my eyes turned red out of rage, but I didn't have anything to explain, because I didn't know which one of them may be Jameson's spy,

I took a step forward, and they started giggling again,

" I wonder how she will manage to attend the party today with that piece of trash?"

haha, he...

I closed my eyes and moved forward,

" I heard Charles invited all the royalties for this evening and party, I am dying to see their reaction on seeing that slave dancing like an idiotic"

I finally reached the door and slammed it open,

I saw Luis standing there leaning on the wall with his hands folded, carefree, I am sure he heard the conversation as none of them was talking like a polite lady, instead, they were barking at me like bitches,

I looked at him straight meeting his gaze, my eyes were filled with tears but I didn't want to show them to him, I tilted my head and went toward my room, I don't know why, but he followed me till the room, I turned back annoyingly,

"What do you want? why the hell are you following me?" I yelled with all the anger I had been holding in,

" I forgot the way to the room, so I was waiting for you to show me that" he reasoned and pushed the door and went in,

The mess I was in just now made me forget the fact that he was living with me in my room,

I stepped in and he was sitting on the couch casually with his hands folded, closing his eyes, so relaxed, tension-free,

It was me who was succumbing just by thinking about the humiliation I was going to suffer tonight at the party,

I started walking back and forth restlessly,

I couldn't think of a way to skip this party, he kept quiet for a while with his eyes closed, "he has the nerve to sleep quietly making my life hell" I mumbled to myself, not in an audible voice.

" you are making me sick Princess," he said,

I was shocked, was he able to hear what I mumbled just now?

" you were loud enough to be heard by half of the kingdom Princess," he murmured,

that disgusted me, I went to him furiously to scold him but his legs were so long that I tripped on them and fell on him, he instantly stopped me with his hands, but his hands were on my breasts, I was leaning on him,

"remove your hands you pervert" I shouted at him,

"Are you sure?" he asked casually, I couldn't understand why he asked, but I only wanted his dirty hands to be off my body,

"yes do it now ...." I demanded,

he removed his hands and I fell on him with my lips touching his neck,

The door opened and Charles barged in,

"What the heck are you doing Amber? " he exclaimed at what he saw just now,

" Charles help me up" I shouted,

But Luis lifted me holding my hands and kept me aside as if he was lifting a doll with his hands and stood up to greet Charles.

" Long live Your Majesty"

"I told you not to do this when we are alone," Charles said,

I wondered when they became close to each other.

" Here are the papers both of you sign up and give them to me I'll do the further procedure" he handed over the papers to Luis.

Luis turned back to me handing them to me,

"Ladies first"

I snatched the papers from him and started looking at them enthusiastically,

They started talking to each other slowly,

" I threw a party tonight, you have to be careful about that monster, I asked my men to look after you, so don't worry you'll be fine," said Charles patting his shoulder,

Charles was so caring about him and that rogue was smirking,

" Yes your majesty"

he said carelessly, I don't know where he got that attitude from, it's way too much for a slave like him...
