Chapter 22 Royal Formalities

• Darius
• I woke up the next day, and Ana wasn’t in my chamber. Ana is my lucky charm; she gives me hope in this chaotic life of mine. My parents won’t rest. I know how tight everything is now because I have to choose one of the princesses to marry, and there is this particular one that my parents like, but I hate everything about her. If it were for me, I could just marry Ana and teach her the ways of this kingdom, but if I dared do that, the world would turn upside down. Why can’t I just marry her and have a peaceful life? But having a peaceful life as a king is not possible. I need Ana right now; she calms my spirit.
• “Andrew!” I growled, and my chamber burst open as he walked in.
