Se connecterTwenty-four hours later, Prince Alex tried to be inconspicuous when he arrived in Stonasia. He didn't want the King and the Queen to know about his arrival.
Beside his living quarters inside the Palace, he had a Villa outside the City for his rendezvous. He decided to go straight to the villa to avoid meeting his parents. He needed to figure out something before he faced them. Knowing the King, he knew that he was in so much trouble this time.
Last week he received a message from the King's secretary, informing him of his impending engagement with Lady Antella as per the King's decree. Today was the last day of his freedom, and he was going to enjoy every minute of it. At least, that was what he had planned.
Prince Alex arrived at his villa in an excellent mood. He was in the middle of a conversation with one of his girlfriends when *Thud!* he was kicked right on his butt and almost fell on the ground, face first.
The kick was not that strong, and he was able to hold his ground.
"What the heck!" Prince Alex cursed.
He turned to look and was shocked to see who the intruder was. "What are you doing here? and why are you here?" He asked, face full of anger, daggers shooting from his eyes.
"Does it matter why I'm here? What matters is the stupid idea that our parents came up with? Hahaha! Who are they kidding? You...? Me...? What's up with that?"
"Tomorrow night it will be officially announced for the whole world to know. Are you going to let them do that?" Lady Antella asked with a loud voice.
Prince Alex hugged Lady Antella as a greeting. "How have you been? Hehe! Of course, not! Not in this lifetime or the next. Unless..." He gave her a look over with furrowed eyebrows, "unless you become a real woman in your next life. Hahaha! Then, I might consider the possibility."
With that, Prince Alex got a kick on his shin.
*Ouch!*
"Man! You, mean and violent creature, you're just like the one I met in Asia. You two would match perfectly if she's into someone like you."
"Into someone like me? What about me? What's wrong with me, huh?" Lady Antella bombarded Prince Alex with questions.
Prince Alex thought about the girl and the lady from before. If possible, he better not introduce them to each other.
Lady Antella might compete with him for that girl, and he could end up losing the girl to the competitor. And that was not a good idea at all.
Lady Antella kicked his shin again to get his attention. "You haven't answered my question, what are you planning to do about our impending engagement?" She insisted on getting an answer.
"Why don't we go inside and talk about it in a civilized way, alright?!" Prince Alex was afraid that a paparazzi might be lurking somewhere around the vicinity. It's not a good idea to have their pictures taken together, especially with the impending engagement.
Once they were inside, Lady Antella went straight to the bar to pour some drink for herself. "Do you want some? The way you look right now... it seems you could use a whole bottle. Hahaha!" She teased Prince Alex.
"Stop it! Why don't you? I'm tired, and I'm pissed right now." He informed her with a look that could kill.
"What's with that sour look? Did you meet someone in Asia and got busted?" She asked jokingly, not knowing that it was precisely what had happened.
Prince Alexander recounted his meeting with Alexa Grant. The woman was the one who gave him many firsts in his life.
"Hahaha! Hahaha!" Lady Antella crouched while holding her stomach, laughing after hearing the whole story from Prince Alexander.
She found herself very interested in meeting this woman. "I want to meet this woman that gave you many firsts, let's see if she can give you seconds. Hahaha!" She was laughing but seriously thinking about going to Asia herself.
"So do I, so do I..." Prince Alexander mumbled.
He had no idea that they would meet very soon…

Alexa worked as a slave for the whole week. She was initially supposed to be an assistant, but she became way more than that.
The original request was for an assistant to handle the daily schedule for the duration that the guest was in town-no more no less.
However, everything changed when the woman met Alexa. Especially after witnessing her encounter with Prince Alexander. Alexa's temporary boss immediately saw the potential within her and wanted to explore the possibility of grooming her as one of her talents.
Instead of letting Alexa assist with her daily schedule, the woman hired another person to do the job. While she kept Alexa beside her during all her meetings, to assist her when she needed something or to groom Alexa for a different role later.
The woman was not a foreigner. She was born in that country but was living in another. She was invited there to be a member of the panel of judges for an upcoming beauty contest. At first, she was hesitant. But due to the recent success of a contestant winning the competition from her native country, she decided to come and discuss the possibility. She hoped that through this process, she would scout someone to become her future talent.
Her decision was not a mistake, she indeed found someone. She planned on doing everything in her power to get that person signed before she had to return to her base.
While Alexa was waiting for Ramon to finish whatever he was doing in the bathroom, she decided to call her cousin Andrea. Ever since they were little girls, they were always so close like two peas in a pod.They always told each other whatever was going on with their lives.For example, when Andrea was kissed by a boy from school that she did not like, although it was on the cheek, she felt annoyed and violated like she had lost her virginity.Even as adults, nothing has changed between them except for the fact that they now both have jobs, and they have grown up but not apart.Andrea's phone rang a couple of times before she answered. "Hello! Where are you? Have you started having your dinner now? ""No, not yet. Andrea, are you still in the hotel?" Alexa asked with curiosity in her tone."No, why? I just left, and I am on my way to my next appointment. What's up?" Andrea stated."Nothing much, I'm inside Ramon's hotel room and waiting
While they were inside the room, Ramon and Alexa were also looking out through the peephole in the door to observe what was going on outside.Ramon could not believe what he was seeing.The man and the lady were still waiting outside for them to come out of the room. He motioned Alexa to go and look while stepping aside to give her space.Alexa peeked and the two were still waiting for her at the door. She thought they were hilarious, and she could not contain her from laughter which was heard outside..."What is so funny?" Ramon asked Alexa who was sitting on the floor laughing so hard she had to hold her stomach."Shh! Be quiet; I need to figure out a way to make them leave.."Alexa went in deep thought and then asked, "How about we let them hear us making out?" She said it straight face indicating her full intent…Ramon responded with "Huh...?"Alexa was thinking naughty thoughts again.. She wanted to make the two people
Ramon decided to play along with Alexa's charade, and he did well. " Yes, babe! Whatever you want, I'm in your command." He kissed the top of her head while smelling her hair at the same time. "Hmmm...Honey, let's go to our room now!" He lifted Alexa, carried her like a princess, and stormed out of the elevator." Oh... Sweetheart, I want to be with you." She wiped the imaginary sweat from her bosom."Ahhh... I feel so...hot and ready.." Alexa made sure her voice carried loud enough for the two to hear as they passed by.Antella thought to herself, 'Watch it, man, she is mine. Damn!'The Prince said to himself upon hearing Alexa's conversation,'Sh*t, who is this ugly looking guy, he's annoying as hell. Do you think I'm going to let you have my future wife? I don't think so!'Prince Alexander did not show his jealousy. Instead, he stood still in shock, looking like one of those Greek statues... Lady Antella was utterly shocked by what she heard.
"Hello! This is Lady Antella speaking, whom may I ask?" She said it loud and clear for Alexa and Ramon to hear. As if that was not enough, she put the phone on a speaker just as the other person was about to say something.Prince Alexander saw what she did, grabbed the phone, and turned it off as fast as he could before Alexa was able to hear what the person on the other end of the line was saying."WTF!!!" She kicked Prince Alexander's knees, and then she tried to grab her phone out of his hands. The effort was worthless, Prince Alexander is a head taller than Lady Antella, and she could not reach the phone at all when he raised his hand high up onto the sky.She forgot that she was a Lady and swore like a truck driver.You f*cking assh*le, you SOB give me my phone back, or I will make you pay."You want your phone? I'll give it back to you, but you need to promise me that you will fly back tonight and not meet her in person." Prince Alexander neede
While Alexa was acting crazy and pushing all the buttons, the elevator stayed wide open for everyone outside to see what's she's doing. Ramon was about to burst into laughter, but he did not want Alexa to get mad at him, so he held back his laughter as long as he could.Finally, after a few seconds, the elevator door closed and started moving up. Only then did Alexa feel relief and slammed down on the floor like a rag doll. "What a shitty day!First, my chance of getting signed as a trainee has gone down the drain. Then, of all the people I run into.Ithad to be that pervert's assistant." Alexa loudly complained to Ramon who's turning red from holding his laughter...Ramon couldn't hold it any longer, he finally gave in and laughed out loud while pointing at Alexa who's still slumping at the floor of the elevator. He laughed so hard that he was in tears.Alexa took out one of her shoes and threw it at Ramon who was still laughin
"You! Andrea!Where in the world have you been?"Alexa yelled as the door opened.The person right in front of Alexa was her cousin Andrea who had been missing in action, and Alexa had been trying to contact her for a whole week without luck." Your phone had been unreachable, and when I went to your house, Aunty told me you're on a business trip abroad. What's up with that?" Alexa was glaring at Andrea with anger as she scolded her for not calling her back."Give me a hug before you bombard me with questions!" Andrea pulled her cousin in an embrace.As she hugs Alexa, she looks over and realizes that a man is standing right behind Alexa. A very handsome man who looks perfect in his outfit.Alexa, who is this hunk?Is he your newfound boyfriend?" Andrea was half kidding, but she was shocked to hear Alexa's reply. "What if he is my boyfriend? You got a problem with that!"Alexa pulls out from Andrea's embrace.She pull
