One Night With The Prince

Lady Antella was expecting Ms. Garcia and Alexa to come in. The most beautiful smile she could conjure was shining on her face. She sat with a straight back, like a lady that she was, waiting for the person to come in.

However, her smile turned into an angry scowl when she saw the person coming in. "WTF are you doing here?! Didn't I left you at Stonasia?" she angrily asked the person who just walked in.

With a big grin on his handsome face, Prince Alex walked in, striding directly towards her. "You thought you left me there. Unfortunately, you were wrong, because I'm here with you now, hehe! You didn't think I would let you meet my girl and stole her from me, did you? If you did, then you've got another thing coming."

"She is not coming anymore. I diverted her somewhere else. So, you may as well pack your bags and go back home. I've already made sure of that." Prince Alex bantered to Lady Antella.

Lady Antella got up very fast and hit Prince Alex right on his handsome face. 

*Pow!* a hit landed on his left cheek, then another *Pow!* this time it was his right cheek. Then for the finale, an uppercut to his jaw which threw him off balance and he fell flat on his b.u.t.t.

"OUCH!!!" Prince Alex didn't see it coming. Lady Antella was pretty quick. "What the heck is wrong with you! Why did you hit my face, you know it's going to leave a black bruise. God! If you were not a woman, I would have hit you back." Prince Alex was now pissed. His hands were balled into fists, ready to hit back.

"Who's the woman, huh? What, you want to hit me!? Go ahead, hit me! Let's see if you can even get close, you a**hole!" If someone saw the way the two were arguing from the side, they would never be able to tell about their royalty. Both were acting like gangsters, ready for a fight.

"Forget it. You know that I can never retaliate, even if I wanted to." Prince Alex sat down, trying to calm himself. He was still rubbing his jaw and cheek, hoping that it wouldn't leave a black bruise. "You sure can throw a punch like someone I know." He mumbled to himself while rubbing his sore cheek.

Pierre, Prince Alex's assistant, came running with a piece of meat inside a plastic bag and a hard-boiled egg. "Your Highness, let me use this on your face. We can't let anything happen to this handsome face of yours. What would Ms. Grant think if we run-in to her." The assistant was more concerned about what Alexa would think rather than other people.

Lady Antella heard what the assistant said about running into Alexa. She was now curious as to how they were planning to do that. "You! Come here! Tell me where did you send Ms. Alexa? How are you planning on running into her?" She asked while glaring at the assistant.

Pierre knew better than to mess with Lady Antella. He handed over the hard-boiled egg and the piece of meat to Prince Alex and rushed right out of there, without saying goodbye to any of them. Lady Antella was yelling at him as he was leaving.

......…..

On the way down to the restaurant, Ms. Garcia received a call and was informed that the meeting was canceled. After hanging up, she looked at Alexa. The latter seemed so nervous that sweat was forming on her forehead. Ms. Garcia felt sorry for Alexa. She had gone through so much trouble for this meeting, only for it to be canceled at the last minute.

"Alexa, are you alright? You don't look good to me... do you want to cancel this meeting?" Ms. Garcia lied to Alexa with a straight face to see what she's going to say.

Alexa contemplated for a minute before replying. "No! I'm sorry if I don't look good at the moment, I'm just nervous. Give me a minute, and I'll be fine."

"Hahaha! It's alright, Alexa, the person we were supposed to meet had canceled the meeting just now." Ms. Garcia sadly informed Alexa with a half-smile on her face.

"Oh! Is that right?" Alexa was disappointed, but it didn't show on her face. "Whatever you say, Ms. Garcia, just let me know."

"How about this, as compensation for your wasted time, I will let you keep everything you are wearing now. Of course, including my one of a kind creation that has not been seen in the public yet. What do you say?"

Alexa didn't need to think about the answer. Everything she was wearing worth several thousand dollars. She was not that stupid... "Yes, Ma'am! Thank you! I will cherish this for the rest of my life."

"We can still have dinner together if you want unless you need to be somewhere else, I don't mind at all." Ms. Garcia told Alexa just as the elevator arrived on the first floor. 

*Ding!*

The elevator opened, and... 

"What are you doing here?"
