14. True intentions
Henry's p.o.v
I was getting confused by each passing day. What was I really doing?. At first, it all started as a game of Revenge but now I was feeling bad for ever being cold to her.
I lay down on my bed and closed my eyes remembering how I had met Paula.
Was marrying a princess from my enemies kingdom a part of my plans?. No, neither was falling in love with her. I was torn between my heart and my mind.
The day I had met Paula I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I could tell by the way she walked gracefully that she was the real princess not the lady who was talking to my cousin pretending to be her.
It was hard not to smile and welcome them in my kingdom as if everything was fine when it wasn't. That's why I had to put on a cold expression on my face.

Paula's p.o.vFor a few days, I did my best to avoid Henry, and for some reason he just let me be. I was very grateful to him but I also felt lonely. I seriously had no strength of arguing with him over useless issues, all I wanted to do was move on.I sighed sadly then stood still in the garden admiring the beautiful red roses in front of me. They somehow reminded me of Henry, he looked very handsome and breathtaking. But the more you got closer to him and dared to touch him, the more he hurt you like thorns."They are beautiful aren't they?" a familiar voice asked behind startling me.I quickly turned and faced Adrean who was smiling. He was in his usual clothes but this time his hair was tied in a ponytail.I cleared my throat then frowned at his informal speech towards me.He raised a brow then bowed slightly."Pardon my manners
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 16. Tired of arguments
Henry's p.o.v"What else is there to report to me?" I asked Jack lazily."The farmers had a problem, this year's harvest went bad. The crops were destroyed by insects and the little crops they harvested couldn't even cover half the kingdom." He answered.I sat upright on my throne with a frown."Why am I hearing this now, why didn't you report to me before you even allowed the farmers to harvest their crops?" I asked loudly."Forgive me, your highness, I ordered some guards to keep an eye on things but sadly they failed me. I will take full responsibility for everything." He answered.I stood up and walked to him. Jack was a very good brother and advisor, never in his life had he ever made such a mistake before. The fact that he did made me angry."And how will you take
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 17. Kind words
Paula's p.o.v"Paula, you don't have to force yourself to laugh or smile. When things aren't going as you had expected it's okay to be sad. Just as it is okay to cry when you are hurt, it's not a sign of weakness but strength." Adrean whispered.I wanted to push his hand away, sadly he was right. I was hurting so badly and I needed someone to give me a shoulder to cry on.I let the tears I was holding back fall. he smiled warmly at me and pulled me in his embrace as I sobbed bitterly."It's okay, let it all out." He whispered.I held his shirt tightly in my grasp and let out the pain I was enduring for too long through my tears."I act so strong in front of him when I'm not. He hurts me every time and treats me like a mere servant. Despite all that I want him to look at me as his woma
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 18. Once an enemy. Always an enemy
Henry's p.o.v"Why am I here?" Jack asked lazily.I looked at him then pointed at my clothes."Which outfit should I put on. Black or blue?" I asked seriously.He stood up from the couch and looked at the clothes on the bed."Wait, you called me in your room just to help you pick what to wear?" He asked loudly."Yes." I answered seriously."Henry, what has gotten into you, I'm not your servant am I?" He asked.I walked closer to him and pat his shoulder."I know it hurts to have no woman to show off your handsomeness to, but I do. So please quit being rude and help me out." I said seriously.He looked at me then moved closer to the bed to take a closer look at the clothes.I was feeling very nervous, it was already evening and I was looking forward to seei
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 19. Heart break
Paula's p.o.vI couldn't stop smiling like an idiot as I walked to the garden, my ladies picked out a very beautiful bareless black dress that showed my curves and more skin. My hair was pulled up in a burn that left two strands of hair at each of my sides.When a guard came to call me, my ladies couldn't stop giggling happily. They were surprised and very happy over Henry's change of heart. I too was still in shock over his sudden change. I looked forward to spending the night with him, if he would allow me I was more than ready to even agree to go to bed with him.I took in a deep breath and released it nervously when I saw him standing near the garden bench with his back towards me.My heart was beating rapidly and my throat was becoming dry."How should I greet him?. Should I say hello, maybe kiss his cheek?
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 20. Leaving
Paula's p.o.v"We don't understand, please make us understand." Lauren said loudly.I stopped gathering the little jewelry I had and faced them. They all had tears in their eyes and it was all my fault."We have to leave right now." I answered with a husky voice."But why?" Cleo asked loudly."Today when I went for a walk in the garden I met a knight. He was very friendly and so I opened up my heart to him and cried in his arms." I said sadly as they gasped loudly."My queen, how could you, did his highness find you?" Lauren asked loudly.There was no reason in telling her everything, either way, Henry knew."Yes, and he wants me to go back to my father's kingdom while he still has his reason." I answered."No, try and talk to him. Beg him please." Bridget said loudly."I did,
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 21. Furious
Henry's p.o.vI was walking back and forth in my room. To say I was angry was an understatement, I was furious. How could she do this to me, was my love for her a game."Your highness, just calm down." Grace whispered then stood up from the bed and walked to me."Stay where you are." I warned.She ignored me and touched my shoulder gently."What did you expect from a slut?" She asked with a chuckle.I lifted my hands and pressed them on her neck, squeezing hard."You are the root cause of all my problems!. If you hadn't told me about her being with another man I couldn't have been this upset and kicked her out!" I screamed on top of my voice as she struggled and choked.The door burst opened and I was pushed to the ground, I tried to st
ROYAL HEARTBREAK 22. Marry me
Paula's p.o.vI blinked a few times then shifted to the side to block the light that was blinding my eyes."She's opening her eyes, please inform his highness." Lauren's voice came through."His highness." I muttered softly then quickly sat upright in fear."Don't panic, you are safe." Cleo said loudly.I looked at her then at my other ladies and relaxed.Lauren moved closer and helped me sit upright."Thank you." I whispered.I looked at the door when it opened. Adrean walked in with a smile."Paula, thank heavens you are awake. I was getting worried." He said loudly.I was shocked that he was in my room. How did he even manage to walk past the guards?"Can you please leave us."
