Chapter 78: How to be romantic

After his lunch and checking the ballroom decoration and the food to be served he took a hot shower to relax.

He was drying his head with a towel; he swiped the foggy mirror, looking at himself...disgusted.

"-I can't believe I would hate myself that much…one day."

He walked out to find a grumpy face sitting on a chair starring at him.

He grinned mockingly.

"-someone looks angry.

-and someone looks like he couldn't get out of his spoiled bitching phase." Kieran stopped narrowing his eyebrows at him.

"-since when you talk to me like that.

-before you out of nowhere turned to a careless freak who doesn't give a fuck about others helping him to get to his fucking crown, and won't care if his family secret is exposed!

-chill

-DON'T TELL ME TO CHILL BECAUSE I HAD ENOUGH WITH YOU.

-Tsk… everyone had enough with me, you are no special, and so…will you bother yourself and tell me what happened in the last days you were absent?

-nothing new, Ellie could find their last destination and when their last attack will be.

-that's good.

-it's not, even though she had a plan; we got trapped and they took every women there in Arcylus.

-and you are mad because you couldn't save them.

-since when you think I care.

-since you met Ellie and you can't deny it cause you are thinking about her right now.

-WHAT? Stop reading my mind I have privacy and it's not what you think it is.

-I have been there before man." Howin laughed sarcastically.

"-you want to convince me now, that you love Mal and care about her.

-well I don't love her but kind of care about her.

-Kieran it's yes or no, nothing in between.

-It doesn't matter anyway, she hates me.

-you technically made her hate you." Kieran glared at him.

"-okay my bad, it was your father's fault but you said you will kill her lat..." he stopped to watch the prince wave his hand at him, wearing nothing in his fingers.

"You were lying all long! I thought it was because of the transformation but you weren't wearing the ring since I took it off you.

-no I was acting as if I'm stuck to the plan, and no I wasn't wearing the damn ring and still.

-I knew it! You care about her.

-at least she can do her missions efficiently as she told not like you.

-wow I didn't know I am that useless…call me when you need your loyal dog your highness or just ask your perfect huntress." Howin was about to leave but Kieran pulled him back.

"-hey man, you are my dear friend. I won't be here without you and I would never replace you for a girl why mad so sudden." The black haired boy rolled his eyes.

"-yeah you definitely won't, like you didn't with Mary, Elizabeth, Luna…" Howin was counting but Kieran cut him.

"-okay I maybe did but it was for our benefit." The black haired boy gave him are you kidding me look.

"-fine MY benefit! But I promise on my mom's grave I won't do such a thing for you again." The prince hugged him and offered him a drink then put his hand on his shoulder.

"-friends?

-bitch!" he pinned him down and asked:

"-who are you and, what did you do to the arrogant bastard I was working for!

-you have three seconds to get off or I swear I will feed you to MY DOGS!" the black haired boy stood immediately then remembered to pull the laying prince.

He dusted his clothes but Kieran pushed him.

"-sorry…hold on! Since when are you that affectionate and humble to care about someone's emotion let alone hug one of your servants.

-I really care but you are blind to notice ungrateful shit.

-I guess you are turning more…human.

-so?

-you have to wear the ring Kieran!

-I told you I can't wear it!

-but what if Vernon find out then your father will find out and we will be in big trouble!

-well my life matters more than anything.

-yeah cause your life and everyone's life DEPEND ON YOU WEARING THE DAMN RING!

-I almost died when I wore it!

-Kieran please stop being dramatic for once.

-do you want to feel how I felt? Then tell me if I'm dramatic or not!

-it wasn't the pain you couldn't handle, it was Mal's reaction that you couldn't bear so you acted as if everything is going like they planned.

-well she almost killed me.

-to be honest your 'as if I'm transforming acting' is so bad but I want to know why did all of this shit for?

-what? Well there is something you don't know about.

-which is?

-Miranda is spying on me and Mal.

-the freak who is obsessed with you and works for Ayana. Do you want me to get rid of her?

-no, not yet. I couldn't read her mind.

-wow your powers were inefficient this time.

-no dipshit, someone is protecting her but she is behind something and especially Malin.

-the plan.

-Mal shouldn't know, and I found out that someone anonymous bought the same dress as the one Mal was trying that day which I didn't like." Howin coughed.

"-jealousy"

"-what did you say?

-just a passing thought.

-I may have saw the dress in one of the maid's rooms on my way here.

-and what were you doing there?

-just passing, by since your love was in the garden.

-what?" Kieran pushed him away and looked around to find her laughing with the other princesses. He smiled to himself and heard them talking about him. His smile widened when he saw a faint blush on her cheeks.

"-is that what you will be wearing tonight?

-huh?" he turned back smiling to himself and found Howin holding his suit.

"-put it down!

-can I ask you something?

-what?

-does Mal have feelings for Louis?

-she hates him to death since their first meeting and she insulted him in front of everyone. It was amazing.

-yeah, from where did you bought your suit?

-Miss Bellini as usual, Brielle said Mal will love it.

-then meet her before someone else will.

-can you stop with hints and questions and tell me what's going on.

-Miranda have the same dress as Mal, and I saw Louis taking a suit from her too, to try it on. Turned out to be the same suit as yours.

-and you are telling me now!

-I didn't know! I thought she will deliver them to you and Mal." Kieran sighed then he poured his drink on the suit.

"-what are you doing?

-now I want you to go to Miss Bellini….

-but I don't want to go…

-only Brielle is there, her mom went in a trip for a week.

-I had some plans but I can cancel them for you.

-you fucker.

-what?

-going back to our subject, tell her that Kieran need another suit and tell her to make a cape for Mal that suit the dress.

-she won't agree for the cape.

-why?" Howin raised his eyebrows.

"-okay fine tell her I will take her for a walk to apologize and it going to be cold outside.

-just make sure Mal won't choke you with it…I'm kidding. I will go.

-not now.

-what! You are going be late.

-Not me, but our dear prince.

-oh! Are you going to tell Malin?

-No but somehow.

-listen don't act like a creep once flirt and once as enemies otherwise…

-smart that's the plan then.

-oh god! Listen if I didn't make it to say my last goodbyes to you, remember that you were the worst master yet I was happy to serve you.

-shut up and go, I am not going to die…yet.

-and what are going to do now.

-find how to fix things between me and Mal after the party.

-just be truthful and act romantic and everything will be fixed.

-what? The last time I decided to be romantic and proposed she laughed at me.

-First, I would have cringed in her place but she already did and you was already a joke. Don't look at me like that, every girl like romantic guys but it depends on the way you express it and; since I'm an expert and you are so desperate for my help. I won't let you down.

-wow and since when you are an expert and desperate for your help?

-since I pull more girls than you and I have longer relationships with them. Anyway, you are my friend so I won't let you face it alone.

-my tears are falling from happiness.

-I will ignore your ass this time.

-excuse me…

-and now?" the black haired boy made a dramatic turn throwing the suit away.

"-I will be your tutor on how to be romantic!" Kieran shook his head giving up.
