Chapter 19 Identical twins
Susan fell off over her bed as her mother walk out of the room. She was damn confused. She hated the rules. She hated everything. She pondered why she was born into a royal family because this isn't what she dream off. She dreams of a simple life. Even though she was born into a royal family they could have at least be with who ever she wanted. They could have at least allowed her to make her own decisions.
She doesn't understand at all as she can't imagine getting married to the Ruthless prince of (BEL Kingdom) she couldn't bring herself to it because of her life to "Alexander" the love of his life.
As usual, he sneaked out of the palace without no one present as she walk to the forest where Alexander, her lover live. He live inside a hut in the forest because of the king her father who had threathen to kill the young man if he ever see him.
Princess Susan knock on his door rapidly as Alaxander who was eating at the moment was frightening. Could it be that the king finally succeeded in figuring out where he was staying which could be the reason why he had sent his bodyguards after him?
Without further hesitation, he took his swords and walk silently towards the door as he step in one side and then open it, just as he was about raising his swords up to fight the person, princess Susan shouted.
"It's me Alex!" I'm so sorry my princess are you hurt? I thought it was another people. He utter as they hugged each other. "Is anything wrong? Alexander ask noticing the worried countenance in her face.
"Everything is wrong Alex! Nothing is right because I just can't take this. I will be getting married to Prince Gabriel in a week. I don't want to marry him Alex. He isn't the one I love! I don't love him but you and I don't wish to get married to someone like him.
Princess Susan utter crying at the moment as he held her hand. "I'm really so sorry princess and wish that I could help you but I just can't. We aren't meant to be together and you should understand that princess.
You're the princess of Natabaean village. Probably your parents only child and they don't want you to get married to someone who doesn't have a rank. They don't want you to marry to someone like me who wasn't born with a silver spoon so you gotta fulfill their dreams as their daughter.
Alexander utter as Susan remove his gripped. "I wasn't expecting that words from you Alex! How could you say that when you know that I love you. " I didn't mean to say it but I have to. You're not the only one hurting here. I'm also hurting but there's nothing I can do but to allowed fate do it path since we aren't meant to be.
We don't have any solution to stop this and no matter what we do, the marriage will still proceed so I'm just telling you to try adjusting to the fact and try moving on with it.
"Don't worry! I will never accept such thing. I will definitely come up with an ideas to end this thing before the time comes. " Okay no ² because it's up to you! It's your decision.
