Kapitel 212: Old Flame

I’ve waited far too long for this…

The door closed behind us and then I heard the sound of the door knob locking. The room felt cozy enough and felt very suitable for a meeting that didn’t involve many people. Prince Desmond gestured with his hand for me to take a seat on the sofa. I didn’t think that I would feel this nervous in his presence but the way that my heart was racing in my chest told me that I was wrong. Although the prince’s presence wasn’t at all as intimidating as Bradon’s, his presence was commanding and that reminded me that despite the informal setting of our meeting, I was in the presence of royalty.

“You don’t have to look so nervous,” the prince said to break the silence hanging in between us.

I wished that it would be that easy. He offered me a smile that I felt looked very genuine and I ended up smiling in return.

“I am nervous…” I replied honestly.

“Is it because it’s been many years since we’ve met?” he asked before he smiled at me again.
