The Crown Prince's Love

Hecate didn't speak for a few seconds, and I thought she had disappeared until I saw the writing on the wall. "I have a deal for you."

I scoffed. "There is no way I am signing any deal with someone as evil as you are. I will not allow you to tell me what to do!"

"Whatever you believe is your cup of tea, but if you want to live happily forever with Randy, then you will listen to me because I am the only one who can make your dreams come true. I am the only one who can stop this long term anger I have against his family. So if I were you, I would join hands, and let's end this."

I knew she was up to something, and she would only suggest something like that because she wanted something from me in return. Something precious, and no one needed to tell me that it was the King and Queen, her long term enemies. "There is no way I am going to join hands with someone as evil as you are,' I replied, chuckling. "You are so full of evil that you wasted years of your life chasing after others and..." I groaned in pain as I felt an invisible force wrapping its arms around my neck and choking the life out of me.

"Do you think that I have not wasted my life enough? And you believe I wanted to continue living like this!" she yelled at me.

"The King and his stupid partner locked me up for years and made me lose my power as the owner of the dark hole. Everything that happened is their fault!"

She yelled angrily, and I felt the hold around my neck becoming tighter. "I am trying to save you from your eternal hell, but it seems that you are not ready to listen to me," she said, and then I felt the grip around my throat loosen.

I coughed near the bed and panted for breath. She had almost choked the life out of my body, and it felt as if I was going to die at that moment. "How are you this evil?" I asked her. "You shouldn't be..."

Hecate scoffed. "Back to the deal, little boy. I am trying to save the love between you and Randy. I want you to live your life to the fullest. Or don't you love him anymore?" she asked.

I was yet to respond.noveldrama

"I will take away your disability, and you will be able to move freely. Aside from that, I will wake Randy up."

"You expect me to make a deal with someone as cruel as you?"

"You have no choice, little boy. Your birthday is weeks away, so I am going to make sure that you don't die and restore your legs If you sign the deal with me, I will do all that for you."

I blinked and rubbed my forehead, contemplating what I could do. "There is no way I, Desmond, will sign a deal with someone like you."

"Do you expect to be happy with Randy as long as I am here? Do you think I will let you both live happily?" she yelled. "I will ruin you both and make you regret not listening to me. Then you will realize that I meant everything I have said. If I were you, Desmond, I would listen to me. Until then, take care."

I blinked again as a lone tear escaped my left eye while staring up. A deal? She wanted me to sign an agreement with the devil? How the hell was she expecting me to do that? But now, everything was worsening, and we could be torn apart again.

"The things we do for love," I sighed and closed my eyes. I didn't know what I would do, but I had to make sure I saved Randy, no matter what it took. If I were to sign the deal, it would be because of him.

Present Day...

I lowered my head as I heard him crying outside of the room. The tears flooded my eyes, and I let them out, holding onto the necklace around my neck.

I hated that I shouted at him, but what could he possibly want with a boyfriend who was paralyzed? There was nothing good about me anymore. I couldn't even look at him properly when he came.

"Desmond, you don't have to cry anymore. This is all for the best," my mother tried to console me. "You are going to be fine and won't have to worry about the crown prince any longer."

I shook my head in response. "I have every right to worry about him because I love him, and I hate that I am not with him right now. I... I shouted at him," I cried and rubbed my face.

"Everything has ended between us. Everything is over now."

My father cleared his throat in the room, and then he spoke up. "You have to remember what the king said to you a few days ago. I hope you remember that he told

you to pretend not to remember Randy,' he reminded me.

I clenched my fists angrily and closed my eyes as I remembered how the king had visited me.

It was a few days after I had woken up, and I was seated on the bed after I had just finished eating. He walked in with his powerful aura, and when he reached my front, I quickly bowed my head, and then he spoke up.

"I didn't come here to see how you are doing, Desmond," he told me. "I already heard about your condition. I have to admit that it is really sad, but it is your fate, and you have to take it like that."

I frowned as I looked at him, clenching my fists angrily. I was fuming with anger where I sat, wondering why he was speaking like that. I knew that he had something against our relationship from the beginning but never expected that he would sound excited that our relationship was crumbling.

"Once Randy wakes up, he will come running here," he told me and then paused for a moment. "I want you to pretend as if you don't know him."

"What." I was shocked, not expecting that he would say something like that. "How could you make me do something like that? I can never lie to Randy."
