Chapter 16: Chapter 16
"Love what you're doing instead of competing in order to be successful,"
Chapter 14.1
Vy's POV
I blinked as my lips parted as I stared at him. Is this real? .I just confessed to him earlier in the mind that I like him and then he confessed to me that he also likes me?
I was about to speak when his cellphone suddenly rang. He swam quickly and answered the call.
"Yes? ..... I'm somewhere. Why? ..... Okay. I'm coming,"
.I expected it to be awkward but when he turned to me and smiled. I breathed a sigh of relief. I thought we could never talk properly.
"I'm sorry lady blue but we have to go. I have ... an emergency,"
I smiled back at him, "It's okay. I'll just get dressed for a moment,"
.he sneezed then turned around, "The clothes were on the bench. Tell me if you got dressed,"
"O-okay,"
I went up naked and used my old clothes to dry myself then took the clothes that were placed on the bench. Simple floral dress up to my knees. .when I was done I called him.
"I'm okay. You get dressed," I whispered to him
"Alright,"
I sighed when he suddenly came out of the water. I could clearly see her bare back. I averted my eyes before he caught me fucking him.
'What is it Vy ?!'
.I close my eyes sharply. The image of her body came back to my mind. Undoubtedly, his body is very well -shaped from behind. How about if it's up front?
I bit my lip and shook my head. I'm going crazy! When else have I learned to lust after a man's body?
."Are you okay lady blue? Your face is red," luhence
I was startled when he held my arm. He left immediately as if he had been burned.
"I'm sorry,"
"H-huh? Sorry where?" I wonder question
"For touching your arm. I saw you flinched. Do I make you uncomfortable?" .there was fear in his eyes
I was dazed. Huh? I was just surprised by his presence, "Luhence you don't make me uncomfortable. I'm just really surprised,"
He sighed, "Still. By the way. I'll take you home now. It's late and you need to rest. Let's go," he smiled at me
.we both walked to his car. We just kept quiet until we got home. He said goodbye and left immediately. It seems important that he is going because he is in a hurry.
The wind blew me away when what he said earlier came to my mind again. He wants me. Is this real?
.he hadn't opened up about what he said and I couldn't speak either because my mind was occupied with his bare back. When I remembered that, my cheeks got hot.
He had a sexy back though
I just shook myself. .I've had so many problems that I've even managed to covet Luhence's body. I walked into the house but noticed a flower and an envelope on the doormat. I took it and opened it.
I'm sorry munchkin. Forgive me.
-Luke
Luhence's POV
"What's happening? Why father called me?" .i asked, a bit annoyed
Hearing from them that I'm going to marry Princess Christine when the Ihmapuleya still can't find the lost princess was surprising. I knew from the very first that she'll probably take the place of being the Filifia's Queen before but I still can't help but to feel annoyed.
.Does it really fricking matter who I'm gonna marry?
Does it really necessary to a crown prince like me marry a woman who had a title?
Because damn! It's starting to get into my nerves. Before, it's okay if they want me to marry that lost princess but now that I found Vy? My lady blue? I can't!
.i can't fricking imagine myself myself marrying a woman other than her. I don't know why but I really liked that woman a lot. I can't stand not seeing her once a day anymore. She's like goddamn drug.
Addicting and wrong
I'm getting obsess on what she thinks about me. Does she find me attractive? .does she likes me too? I wanted to know. So badly. That I asked her. I wanted her answer but that infuriating call interupted me from knowing the answer I'm dying to hear. I'm so damn pissed. Now! I can't even know how to start a conversation again with her without getting awkward. .i proceed inside the mansion-palace style property and Princess christine immediately greeted me. I bow at her.
I'm pissed but she has nothing to do with this. I know she likes me but I know she doesn't like the idea of marrying me. .i treated her like a sister and I know she likes someone else. She's just indenial. She plastered her big sweet smile.
"What's happening? Where's Dad?" I asked
"He was talking inside with the officials. You're late so they decided to start it without you," Princess Christine
.we both sat in the elegant and expensive sofa. We were facing each other, "I heard that they still couldn't find the princess. So I already prepared myself to be announced as your fiancé. I'm excited about it! I'll get rid of that man too!" There's a hint of irritation on her voice
.i frowned, "Who's man? Prince Cedric? Your supposed to be husband?"
She nodded disappointedly, "Yeah. Anyways. Where have you been? I notice you're always away from the palace?" She sipped her tea
"Somewhere," I answer
Somewhere where my heart wants
.princess Christine was beautiful with her chestnut soft curls, cream skin and amber eyes. She's undeniably attracted but she don't affect me as much as Vy's doing to me. Nothing can beat Vy’s stunning eyes. .her perfect electric big blue eyes, pale skin, diamond blonde straight hair, red pouty lips, pointed nose and tall stature. Anyone could mistakenly indentified her as a princess.
If she only wear royal gowns that princesses wore.
I suddenly become curious. .what would she be like If she wore a princess gown? She will be the most beautiful woman I will ever seen. I was snapped out of my thought when Princess Christine called out my name.
"W-what? What is it again?" I asked
She raised her perfect brow, "Are you okay? You're spacing out my fiancé,"
.and cringe. Damn! I hate it. My mood immediately switches from calm to irritated. I stood up and looked straight into her curious eyes.
"I have to go. I'm already tired. Excuse me princess christine,"
She blinked, "P-prince Dwig ---,"
I walked away but before I turn. .i looked back at her, "I don't want to be rude but .... don't call me fiancé. You'll not going to be my bride,"
Vy's POV
I just sighed and then went inside the house with the envelope and flowers. I put it on the coffee table and then sat on the sofa. .I also stared at it for a while.
"What do you really need from me Luke? Why don't you just stop?" I whispered
I leaned my back on the sofa and closed my eyes. I remembered Luhence again and for no apparent reason. I smiled. He confessed. .he admitted he liked me and I didn't even say anything back. I felt disturbed. If it wasn't for that call, I might as well admit it to him.
"What did he like about me?" I whispered to myself
I bit my lip so hard to stop the wide smile from flashing across my face. .I applied my hand to my heart with a strong throb. I thought. Do I just really like luhence? Or even more there? Am I falling for him?
My heart beat faster at that idea. What if I'm really falling for him? Will he catch me? .for a moment I felt doubt and fear. I’m not in love yet and based on what I hear. Not all in well leads. There are others who are not loved so they are very hurt. Some have lost themselves and worst of all others have committed suicide. .I don’t want to end up like that.
I was just shaken and erased from my mind the ideas that came into my mind. I will first think about the problem I am facing now and put aside how I feel about luhence. I know someday.
If we were. .destiny will meet us no matter how difficult the situation.
That line is scratched but I believe.

I stretched before going into the bathroom and taking a shower. Then I wore black highwaist jeans and a white sweater with a high neckline. .I sat in the mirror and tied my hair in a ponytail. I couldn’t help but stare into my blue eyes and strange hair color. It somehow make me different from the rest. Others thought I was coloring so they didn’t pay attention to my appearance.
.I also don't wear clothes like dresses, skirts, shorts and heels even make-up so that I don't become distracted by others. Especially with men. Luke is just a headache, what if his peers increase him. .so I always tie my hair and wear less attractive clothes so I don’t get noticed.
