" You guys look beautiful together, your highness. The function was just perfect -"
I turn a deaf year to one of the elders wife speaking to us. Hope's arms were wrapped around mine as she talked to them elegantly.
Entertaining the guests.
When I couldn't give a fuc*.
I just wanted this to get over with. And find that stupid woman. I hope she didn't do a blunder on my special day.
Max! Any news?
I mindlink him the n th time to only hear a low no in return. My grip on the glass in my hands tighten. And I was done with this.
Leaning closer to Hope. I whisper in her ear.
Tugging my arm from her grip.
" I have some really urgent matter to attend to. Excuse me, love. "
She nods and places a soft peck on my cheek.
" I will manage here. Don't worry. "
Kissing her
