Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

After thinking fruitlessly for a few minutes, she shook her head and gave up with the conclusion that perhaps it was because he changed his scent because everything else felt familiar.

She woke up in his warm embrace when her phone rang from her bag wherever she dropped it. She did not leave his arms but rather snuggled into his embrace and pressed her face against his body.

His embrace was like drug she was deprived of for a few days despite her addiction to that drug. The moment she got it, she did not hesitate to enjoy as much as she could.

"You should wake up," his hot deep voice advised her.

She shook her head against his chest and pressed her face against his chest with a sigh.

"It is late and you should not be out of the palace for too long. I had people watch what they say about your visit here," he told her seriously.

"Mhhmnhh," she murmured. "Let them talk. I am not keeping our relationship secret anymore. You promised to help me clean my mess, you should do that while I flaunt the fact that I am dating you."

"Why not married?" he asked without taking most part of the statement seriously.

"Married, is a bit too extreme considering my age. We could make it known later," she replied him. "But from now onwards, that fake fiancée of yours is not needed."

"Don't you think it will be a smear on your reputation? You are supposed to behave ideally," he reminded her.

"Where is the person who told me to behave like myself and he will be there to take care of it for me?"

He chuckled softly and pat her head gently. He closed her inhaled, she really smelt nice and beautiful just like a garden.

"Your fake fiancée might not take the break up easily so you should get ready for some objection," she advised him.

"My men are well trained to handle any matter, you can trust them to do a good job handling this for us," he told her tiredly as he blinked his eyes sleepily.

Rose closed her eyes and sighed, life was short and she saw no reason not to enjoy the moment she had with Liam which she prayed will last for as long as she would.

At this point, she has chosen to let the world know about her relationship with Liam and she was not sure how things will unfold.

She was still cautious since that little voice in her head did not stop to warn her that her father loved her mother and they got together despite the objections of the majority and she could easily end that way.

Unlike before, she pushed that voice to the back of head and suppressed it as much as she could deciding to give this man a chance.

When she got scared that he might have been dead as the article said and replaced by someone else, she felt a strong desire to stay with him for as much as she could and let him into her life.

"The article," she began in a low murmur. "I believed it at first. I thought you were really dead and blamed myself for seeing that you were ill. Next time, if you feel ill or uncomfortable, don't hesitate to call me. That is what married people do."

She got no reply from him and moved away to see his face. His eyes were closed and he was sleeping.

She shook her head with a doting smile. "He wanted me to wake and he fell asleep."

It was dark when the sleeping duo woke up. Rose sat on the bed and ran her hand through her hair.

"We slept a lot," she said before standing up.

He wore his suit jacket and adjusted his hair. "I must have been very tired."

"It is good to rest sometimes in the daytime. Your bed is also very comfortable, I fell asleep before I realized," she told him with a smile.

"I will wait for you out there. I had them bring some clothes for you, they are on that chair. The restroom is also there," he informed her and left after pointing at a chair then a door.

It took her half an hour to freshen up her appearance. He was sitting on one of the sofa in his office when she went into his office.

"Do you stay here a lot?" she asked him trying not to make her question sound serious and too inquisitive.

". . ." He remained silent for a while fixing his gaze on her.

She decided to pretend she did not ask him. "We should leave now, I am sure my assistant is worried about me," she told him as she began walking towards the door.

"I stay here a lot," he suddenly answered her earlier asked question.

"Oh . . ." was all she could say since she could not come up with what to say since she did not expect him to answer her question.

He stood up and walked to her with a very handsome smile that had people calling him the hottest bachelor and also the most sort after.

She wondered how a lot of single ladies having a crush on him will react when the find out that he is no longer a bachelor but her husband.

If it was when she had a crush on him, she would definitely have cried herself to sleep or spend hours reminding herself that he was not the only man in the world.

If felt good that she was not under the category of the heart broken single women.

When he got to her, he stretched his hand to her and she took it returning his smile.

Rose did not stress over everything anymore as she walked out of his office with a whole new yet familiar feeling in her heart.

The feeling of belongingness could not be feigned.. It gave her a strange yet beautiful feeling that she was able to do anything and this man will shield her as promised.
