Chapter 415: : Deserve
?
I look at the painting hanging on the walls of the hallway. I just finished talking to his majesty and I am currently walking my way out of the Pce.
However, my mind couldn''t help but think how my conversation with his majesty ended. I stop walking and stare nkly ahead of me.
I decided to y safe when his majesty asked me if I want to have a position in the new department. I didn''t ept nor refused it. I just told him that I was busy managing the Foundation. But that''s it. I didn''t told him I don''t have time or something. I made it sure to make it sounds like I want to but at the same time I don''t want to.
But now I am not sure if what I did is the right thing or not. What if his majesty misunderstood it? What if he thought that I don''t want to work in the new department?
Did I just blew my chance? It is already my chance to ensure my position but I end up messing it. I just hope he will still consider Csille.
I need to be a part of that department. Only by that, I will be able to follow the storyline of the novel.
I frustratedly p my head a couple of times. "Why do you do things that mess up thing, Csille? Now, we are not sure what will happen next." I heaves a sigh and shake my head before I continue walking while thinking over the decision I have made.
I was about to turn to the hallway leading to the exit of the Pce but a noise caught my attention. I look at the direction of that noise and frown when I noticed that the noise is
coming from the garden.
I''m not usually nosy but something is telling me that I should see it. So, even if it''s appropriate for ady to be nosy, I just shrugged it off.
I look around the Garden but I couldn''t find anything or anyone at all.
But I am definitely sure I heard something just now. Did I mistaken it? Or am I hearing things already?
I was about to return to the Pce but my step halted when I heard familiar voices. But I couldn''t hear what they are talking about. They are probably a few meters away from me.
I know eavesdropping is not a good thing but I curiosity gets a hold of me. Before I could even stop myself, my feet is already walking it''s way to the direction where the voices areing from.
My eyes widen when I see Prince Fraser and Prince Rufus ring at each other like two predators who are eyeing each other.
What is happening? Why are they ring at each other like that? I thought they are already okay? Thest time I see them, they look like they are already okay.
Rufus smirks. "Your highness, you dare to warn me not steal him from you? But is he even yours in the first ce?" He thenughs. "You know it is impossible for the two of you. You are the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom. You cannot just be with someone else."
Prince Fraser res at Rufus. "Have you forgotten that you are also a part of the royal family? Do you really think you can also be with him?" Heughs mockingly at Rufus. "We are on the same page Prince Rufus. If I cannot be with him. So, do you. So don''t act like you have the upper hand here because you are not. Also have you forgotten that I get everything I want ever since we were young?" He then smirks at Rufus as if he is taunting him.
Rufus rushes to Prince Fraser side and grab him by his cor. "He is not a thing! So don''t talk about him like that." He then grits his teeth. A sign that he is really enraged with Prince Fraser.
I understand him though. Prince Fraser got overboard this time. How can he said those hurtful words to Rufus? He even sound proud of it as if what he have done to Rufus is something not terrible.
I couldn''t believe Prince Fraser. How can he say that to his own cousin? I know he is only fighting for Princess Paislee but to disregard Rufus''s feelings is something I couldn''t believe.
If I were Rufus I would have punch him on his face. He is a jerk and he doesn''t deserve Princess Paislee at all. Someone who see a woman as a thing that can be possessed doesn''t deserve anyone. Even if he is the future King of a Kingdom.
Rufus inches his face closer to Prince Fraser and res at him. "Don''t talk about him like that. I would tolerate you with other things you have done but to treat him like that? I wouldn''t let you. I am warning you Prince Fraser. Don''t treat him like a thing you can possess." He then let go of Prince Fraser''s cor but he still remain ring at Prince Fraser.
Prince Fraser res at Rufus in return. "Don''t act as if you are some noble person here, Rufus. We both know you are not!"
Rufus takes a step and was about to punch Prince Fraser but his hand stops midair because of what Prince Fraser said. "You want to punch me? Go on! Let him see what kind of person you are. Hurting the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom. Your own cousin! Do you really think he would like you if he knows what you did? So, go on. Hurt me! I want to see if you would dare."
I stare at Prince Fraser with utter disbelief. And how can he say those words as if he never done anything that hurt Rufus?
Ever since we were young I have seen how much Rufus needs to suffer being the son of the Duke. He always need to give way to Prince Fraser even if it''s means he needs to give up on things he likes the most.
So, I don''t understand how can Prince From said those words as if he have been a good cousin to Rufus. All he ever did is to take everything from him and now he even wants to take Princess Paislee from him? Isn''t he too much?
I know I was the reason why all of this is happening but I couldn''t help but be mad at Prince Fraser too. He have everything while Rufus have nothing. Can''t he just give it to Rufus?
I scoff at my own thoughts. How can it happen? I have written this novel and I know more than anyone else what will happen after.
"Fraser, you never change. You only think about yourself. But have you ever ask if he wants to be with you?"
Prince Fraser got silent because of Rufus question. He just stares at him. Rufusughable when he see the reaction from Prince Fraser.
"See? He doesn''t want to be with you, right? So, don''t talk as if he already wants to be with you. You know more than anyone else that he will not choose you. After what you have done with Csille?" He scoff.
I feel my hand trembles when I heard Rufus mentioned my name? Why does he needs to involve my name in their conflict? Can they leave me out of their conversation?
I noticed Prince Fraser''s jaw tighten. It seems like Rufus have hit a sensitive spot. "Don''t you dare say it!"
Rufus scoffs. "What? You cannot ept the fact that you have lose your chances with him after what you did to Csille. Who would like to be with someone who embarrassed his fiancée in front of everyone? You just have proven to him your character. Do you really think that after breaking your engagement with Csille, you will have a chance on him?" Heughs. "You are mistaken, Fraser. You have lost him the moment you have done that. So do—"
Rufus wasn''t able to finish what he is saying because Prince Fraser punch him on his face. I immediately cover my mouth to stop myself from making any noise.
He punch Rufus!
I didn''t expect he could do that! I look at Prince Fraser and see him ring at Rufus while Rufus is still smirking at Prince Fraser.
"Fraser, you should really fix your temper first. How can he likes you if you don''t even know how to control it." He shakes his head and casually stands up. He doesn''t look like he was punched just now. He then turn his head at Prince Fraser. "Fraser, give it up. You don''t deserve him. You will only ruin him just like how you ruined Csille. So, as early as now, give him up already. You are the future King of the Vrawyth Kingdom. Do you really think the Vrawyth
people will ept a King like you?"
Prince Fraser res at Rufus. "I will not give him up. You should be the one giving up, Rufus. You know more than anyone else that I get everything that I want and that will include him."
Rufus''s eyes sharpen after hearing what Prince Fraser said. "I already told you, do that treat him like a thing! He is more than that! And do you really think I would let you have him? I have let you take everything from me ever since we were young but not him. I will not allow you to
have him."
Prince Fraser smirks. "Then try me. Let me see if you can really do that. You know I always
win."
Rufus takes a step forward. "Can you do that this time? You are the heir to the throne and Vrawyth people can never ept someone who won''t have any chance of having an offspring. So, let me ask you. Can you give up the throne? Can you live as amoner to be with him? Because I wouldn''t hesitate to do that. You cannot give him the life he deserves, Fraser. So, if you can''t give up the throne, I suggest you leave him alone."
I know what he is saying. There is once a King who got strip off his crown because the people realizes that he is infertile. He cannot have a child. In the end, that King ends up living amon life outside the Vrawyth Kingdom. I even heard from Father that he lived a lonely life
outside the Kingdom.
Since it''s a medieval period, the society see a King who couldn''t bear a child useless. No matter how great Ruler they are, if they cannot pass on their lineage, they are useless. And since Prince Fraser thought he is in love with a man, it means the society can not eptn/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
him too.
Prince Fraser grits his teeth. "As the future King of the Vrawyth Kingdom, I am ordering you Prince Rufus to stay away from him!"
Rufusughs. "You are still the Crown Prince so your words doesn''t have authority on me. So,
why would I follow your order? I will tell you this one time, Fraser. I will not give him up. I will do anything to keep him away from you. I will not allow you to ruin someone again just like how you ruined Csille''s life. If I need to give up my rights as the Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom, I would do that just to save him from you. You don''t deserve him, Fraser." Rufus takes a step back and left. However, he hasn''t gotten far when he suddenly stop walking. "Fraser, if I were you, I would just give up the idea of being with him. You don''t know him that much and you might be in a difficult situation once you know everything. So, for your safety and the safety of the Vrawyth Kingdom. Just leave him alone." He then left
after saying those words.
I look at Rufus''s back and frown. What does he mean by his words? Does he knows Princess Paislee''s secret already?
I turn my head at Prince Fraser and see him frowning at Rufus. It looks like he still doesn''t know Princess Paislee''s secret. I don''t know if I should pity him or not. But I guess he deserves what is happening in his life currently.
