(His Royal Majesty)
Episode 25

Danica’s Pov:
I felt my heart jump out of my chest as I stared at him – Prince Nathan – walking into the office, his face glum and his eyes, low.
I could clearly see his guards waiting outside the door.
Oh my God! What’s he doing here??? Is this a dream??
I couldn’t stop myself from staring at him the whole time until he had gotten close and taken the seat next to mine. He didn’t even bother to look at me.
“G….Good morning, my prince” I forced myself to say, my heart racing so fast.
This was the same guy I’d helped in the woods – the same guy looking for me. Gosh! What if he recognizes me?
“Yeah, morning” he replied with a sigh and sent his fingers into his dark glittering hair.
He looked so handsome and everything around him screamed royalty.
He had two rings on a particular finger on his right hand, one on his index finger on his left hand. And he had a tiny sparkling ring on his right ear.
G©sh! With the way it glittered, I was pretty sure it was pure gold.
But thinking of it….this is the same guy that’s looking for me!!!
The prince?!
“Where did he go?” He glanced at me and asked and I instantly knew he was referring to the principal.
But.,..I was too dumbfounded to reply at once. I couldn’t tell if I was being muddled by his voice or the question. He was actually talking to me…!
‘I..I…don’t know, my prince. But, I think…I don’t know. But I’m sure he’ll be back soon” I gulped nervously after the successful stuttering.
I swear, I felt all my body vibrate when the prince stared directly into my face, for a long time. Oh God…no
“It’s you…” He suddenly said and my heart stopped beating.
Oh goodness. Its me what??
My eyes were almost popping out, staring at him anxiously. My forehead was already sweating.
“You’re the lady we had almost knocked down the other day, isn’t it?” He asked and I let out the breath I’d been holding, hoping he doesn’t notice.
“Y…Yes, my prince. Its me” I replied with a bow, my heart still racing fast from the previous fear.
I’d expected him to turn away, but surprisingly, he continued staring keenly at me.
Oh goodness. Should I be surprised?
I heard him mutter something to himself before turning away , facing the table in front of him.
Okay…that was so close. And scary too.
He brought his phones on the table and that was when I realized he actually had two phones. Wow!
One was an apple phone. And the other, I didn’t know the brand.
He took the apple phone and started operating it, but the distance between our seats wouldn’t let me have a peek.
I eyed his fingers as they moved on the phone, and they were so straight and neat. G©sh! Everything about this guy seemed almost perfect.
Immediately, the door opened and I turned to see it was the principal. Ah!! Thank goodness.
But…surprisingly, I found myself wishing he had delayed a little bit longer. Perhaps….admiring the prince was kinda fun to me.
G©sh! What am I even thinking?
“Prince Nathan. You’re here?” He said as he walked from behind, upto the desk.
‘Obviously” the prince just mumbled, his eyes not leaving his phone.
“Miss Danica” the principal called as he took his seat, in front of us. He had a book with him.
“Hope I didn’t take too long. Here’s your book” he stretched the book out to me and I collected it gratefully.
“Thank you,,sir”,I replied and stood up.
“You’re welcome,dear. Enjoy your day”.
I glanced at the prince who kept his eyes glued to his phone. And not knowing what I was expecting, I turned around and left.

Seriously, I’m beginning to suspect the prince uses some sort of charm around him because I couldn’t stop thinking about him as soon as I left the house.
His voice kept replaying in my head, his killer look, his cool scent…everything. Although, that wasn’t the first time I was being so close to him, but I just felt something….g©sh! I don’t even know. But…I couldn’t stop thinking about him.
I guess, now I understand why most ladies love him more than his brothers. Seriously, He’s at the top when it comes to charm.

The rest of the day at school – nothing big happened. Just classes and break time.
During break time (lunch), I just found a quiet place to sit because I wasn’t having any money on me to treat myself.
I beguiled the quiet time by reading a book and thank goodness, nobody came to bully me again. I just felt so odd in the midst of these rich kids.
When lunch time was over, I returned to my classroom and after some more lectures, the school came to an end for the day.
Although, the principal had said a tour guide would be provided to me to show me round the school, I didn’t see anyone.

I took a cab home with the last money I had and after a very long while, I got to my street.
I dropped from the cab and walked the rest of the distance home. And as I did, I couldn’t stop thinking about the prince.
But thinking of it…the prince was actually looking for me.
Me – Danica. What have I done to deserve that, huh? Being looked for by a charming prince like that?
Oh geez! If it wasn’t for grandma….
I smiled sheepishly to myself as I recalled our encounter at the office.
Although, our conversation had been very brief, but they meant a lot to me.
I could remember the first question he asked:
“Where did he go?”
Oh.,….!
His voice still echoed in my head and left so many goosebumps.
Then, his second question:
“You’re the lady we had almost knocked down the other day, isn’t it?”
Oh!!!! How I’d wished to tell him I was the same lady he was looking for.
Oh geez!! Danica.
I bit my nails in excitement and didn’t even realize I had already gotten to the house. My eyes had been glued to the floor the whole time.
I smiled as I lifted my head but suddenly stopped walking when I saw something alarming in front of me.
Not something…but someone.
I froze at my spot as my hands became feeble instantly, every calcus in my head spinning.
He was staring at me, his hands in his pockets.
And in a faint voice, I called out in shock:
“Scott?”
