Alexander was sitting in his study room reading about something in his books, but all his mind could think of was the counter he had with that mysterious beautiful lady; he saved the other day when those old men were going to take advantage of her and somehow at the thought of that he felt sock to his stomach.
"Why is she affecting me like this, what's up with her?" He thought to himself because eve since that day he has been thinking of her and the moments they shared.
But the disappointing thing was that he didn't know how to meet her again, and when he realized that he chuckled to himself.
This was his first time ever having interest in mere human, like she didn't have anything special or a well-known background, just a simple villager.
Which made him recall that, the day was tomorrow when his father would choose a bride for him. So that it would help him in his problem where whenever he gets angry, he just suddenly loses it and then go on a rampage.
Because the old witch Malta had told his father that, maybe all he needed was love from a woman which he had never experienced. Even his own mother sold him to the creatures who had made him the way he is now, that's when he developed this kind of hatred towards love from anyone.
To him he only has himself and none other, but now that he had had this encounter with this lady, he doesn't know why she is so special.
But right then someone interrupted his thoughts with a knock, and he entered with a bow.
"Your majesty, the King is here to see you." The guard said and then he immediately excused the two people.
"What do you want now?" Alexander asked in a somehow irritated tone.
"Just wanted to talk to you as how a father and son would be having a normal conversation with. I mean l am always out there for you so that your condition would get better, but nothing ever happens. And this is the last chance that l am giving you...." Soon Alexander interrupted him while he spoke.
"By marrying me with a stranger, how is that going to help what l am going through. It will only increase my problems?"
" That's the only option we are left with to get you back to normal and not this scary ginormous creature." He answered about to pay on his shoulder, but he dodged it.
" Back to normal, with a woman that's the worst you can come up with." He chuckled deeply and then walked out his study and then left the king alone by himself.
Alexander walked outside all frustrated because he literally didn't want anyone in his life, he preferred it alone and now and now his father is doing the last thing he has in mind.
The following day,
The princesses from the Arrakis kingdom finished preparing themselves and then went in their carriages so that they will head to the Patriarch kingdom and of course they came up with the four other maids including Hazel, so that they will personally take care of the princess during the time that they will be staying with the princesses. Then after sometime later they got to the large black entrance gates of Patriarch. The guards then immediately noticed the many royal carriages which were heading their way and then opened them with loud horns. The carriages then entered gracefully.
" Hazel, ohh my are we seriously going to live here for the rest of our lives." Angela who was sitting beside her in the maid's cart asked nudging her by the shoulders.
"l guess so because I have heard that the prince is going to choose one princess from the three of them and for us we will be her permanent maids, so l guess that means for eternity." she replied with a silly poker face and they all squired together making others look at them with judging looks because they were sitting opposite them, but they didn't care about it.
Nevertheless, they got on the opening of the palace where both the king, the queen and other two princes were waiting for them. The carriages then stopped, by the horses halting in their tracks. then two servants immediately came out and then opened up for the king and queen for them to go out. They were wearing glamourous royal garments with gold on the ends which only screamed out wealth.
Alexander whom was standing beside his older brother Zach, was not paying attention to what was even taking place he somehow felt a familiar scent, because of his powers to feel everything around him in an intense way ,it was decent and screamed out innocence and it somehow got him thinking of the girl he saved the other day in the forest , but he brushed it off thinking that maybe it was a coincidence.
" Greetings my fellow your highness, we are pleased to be here very much." The king of Arrakis kingdom who was called Zamiel greeted showing his honor.
" My greetings too, we are so happy to see you here." he said gesturing for them to enter and then they all came inside. And then the princesses also came out greeting them with respect and they all went inside the palace, following the king to the main hall where the whole ceremony was going to take place.
The maids then came after all the others went inside and immediately, they were escorted to the maid's' quarter, so that they will be with the others to be familiar with them.
