One Night With The Prince

Prince Alexander had given up on his plan of using an actress to fool the King and the Queen. After meeting the feisty Miss Alexa Grant, he decided that she's the one that he wanted to introduce to his parents as his girlfriend. He needed to think of a way to get her, whatever it would take, before going back home.

"Do whatever it takes to find something that I can use to entice her in agreeing to become my girlfriend. If you can't, don't bother coming back. You hear me?!" He snarled at his assistant.

'Why do I always get the short end of the stick? He is always threatening me with the same thing, over and over again! I wonder what he would do if I do as he said and don't come back. Hahaha!' The assistant was thinking to himself.

Prince Alexander stood by the window, looking at the beautiful scenery outside, while in deep thought. He's only twenty-five years old, but he was already being forced to conceive an heir.

The worst of it all, the person they want him to marry was that bitch Lady Antella. Well, she's not precisely a bitch. The problem was that they were more like a brother and sister than lovers.

How many times they had competed with each other. From young, they had been friends, and she always liked to fight with him, starting with toys and ending with girls. That's right; Lady Antella also liked GIRLS.

Prince Alexander was still in deep thought when he glanced towards the beach, and his eyes bulged out due to what he saw. Miss Alexa Grant was walking side by side with the foreign lady from before.

By what he could see from his spot, she's busy explaining something from the way her hands kept on gesturing. 'Oh! That smile, so beautiful...Look over here... Smile at me instead, why don't you?' He thought still looking straight at Alexa.

Like ESP, Alexa looked up and saw him from down below. She looked straight at him, then secretly showed him her middle finger and a wicked smile. Afterward, she continued her conversation as if nothing had happened.

Prince Alexander was shocked by how bold Alexa was. He would have never thought that she would have the guts to make such unladylike gestures. Well, but what was he expecting... If she could beat the crap out of him, he guessed that she could do that as well. It only made him more interested in her.

Prince Alexander hurriedly walked out of his room and went toward the beachfront where he saw them last.

When he arrived, there was no sign of them any longer. 'Where did they go? They were here a couple of minutes ago?' He looked south, and there was no one. He turned to the north, and still no one.

Prince Alexander was getting frustrated at this point. He needed to find her quickly; he didn't have much time left. Soon, it would be time to go back to his country, and he still had no one to take with him when he went back.

He was about to give up and go back to his room to wait for his assistant to report his findings when someone spoke from behind him.

"Excuse me! Are you looking for me by any chance?"

Prince Alexander turned around, eyes shining brightly, his whole face lit up and his mouth curved into a smile from seeing the person in front of him. The feisty Miss Alexa Grant was standing in front of him, with a hardened expression on her beautiful face.

"What if I am. Do I need your permission to do so?" He bantered back to Alexa. 

Which, apparently, was a wrong move for him. It only made Alexa more irritated and probably madded her hate him to the core of her being...

"You're right! You don't need my permission to look for me, but you would need my permission to speak with me. Therefore..." she pointed her middle finger once again, right in front of his face, "asshole!" Alexa exclaimed and turned around to leave without saying another word.

She was so quick that Prince Alexander was left speechless and lost his senses for a moment. When he realized that she's leaving again, he hurried up and ran after her.

Once he reached Alexa, he grabbed hold of her shoulder to stop her from leaving. 

Alexa's reflexes were fast and accurate. As soon as Prince Alexander's hand landed on her shoulder, she grabbed it and flipped him onto the ground. 

*Whoops* *Bang!*

Prince Alexander landed on the ground, flat on his back.

Alexa's right foot was on top of his c.h.e.s.t, as she was staring at him with a look that could kill.

"You better stay away from me, YOU PERVERT!!! It's your last warning, and there will be no more next time."

After saying those words, Alexa walked away and left for home. That was the last time they encountered each other.

Prince Alexander had no choice but to go back home empty-handed and with a head full of thoughts about the feisty Miss Alexa Grant.

'We would meet again soon. I will make sure of that!' At least, that's what he was thinking.

Twenty-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.

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 b.u.t.t 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 would 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. 

"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.

"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...
