She Loves Me?

Rex's POV

'Did Destiny just say that she loved me? She can't love someone like me. I am a player and I have to keep her from liking me. I have just the thing to make her feelings change towards me,' I thought. I head to my room and my brother follows behind me.

"Dude, what's wrong? You look shocked," he asked. 

"Yeah. I am because she said she loves me and she shouldn't love me. You know I am a player and like my ways of not being tied down. But, I got an idea to change her feelings that she thinks she has for me. We will invite them to our upcoming Royal Ball these upcoming two weeks and I will show her that she has to like someone else," he said. 

Devin sighed. "Why do you want to continue acting like a player? Especially when she likes you and has feelings for you? She might be good for you and everyone is not like you-know-who," he said.

"Like who?" I asked. 

"Like Tiffany, dude. You know who I'm referring too. I understand that you hate saying her name but not everyone is her. Destiny seems to be a great woman like Heavyn and that is why I want to try my hand in being with her no matter what my family, fiancé, and her think. We will be together in the end because she deserves to be loved, feel love and I will be the only one to give it to her. So, don't mess this up, dude?" he said. I sighed. 

"Well, let's try something anyway at the Royal Ball. Hear me out? We invite them to the Royal Ball and actually leave them on their own that night and see how they handle it and what they do on their own, okay?" I said. Devin placed his hand on his chin and begins rubbing it.

 "Alright, let's do it. We will also give them their dresses or have them be told that there is a dress code of strapless, v-cut long evening gowns and have them be sent to the salon. How about that?" he said, with a smirk. 

We nod our heads in agreement.

 "That's a good idea. Let's do it," I said. After this, I bet she won't like me as much as she thinks she does right now. There's nothing to like or admire about me, in my opinion. Tiffany showed me that females who aren't arranged to be wed to us are not meant to be trusted. 

"We will tell them tonight over dinner," I said. He nods his head. 

"Alright, what time is it anyway? I'm starving and want to eat now," he asked. 

"Oh, it is 7 pm and is actually time for dinner. Let's head out and head to the dining table," I said. We head downstairs and find our fiancees already sitting in their places, while Destiny and Heavyn are serving the food we will be eating. 

We see our parents just sitting there doing nothing about it. I know my father had a hand to play in this. I may not want her to like me, but I don't want them to serve us in any way, shape or form, due to what they have been through. 

Princess Drea is smirking as she sees me and Devin standing there, surprised at what is going on. 

"What is the meaning of this?! Why are they serving you your dinner?! There are maids for that! And you know this! Destiny and Heavyn, stop right now! This is not allowed from either of you! Stop, immediately! Dad, you are sick! As well as the rest of you!" I yelled. 

Devin pats my back and tries to calm me down but I'm not hearing it. "Oh and Destiny and Heaven, you are our dates to the upcoming Royal Ball in two weeks time and will be helping you prep!" I say loudly.Our father and mother gasp in shock at my announcement.

 "Why are they going to be there? As your dates, even?! We are your future wives and we should be your dates!" Princess Drea shouted back. 

"Now, you realize this? Well, since you all pulled this bad stunt this evening, this is how it will be!" I yelled.

 "Son, enough! This joke has gone on long enough! They are not going to be allowed at the Royal Ball and that's final! I'm your father and what I say goes!" our dad yells. 

I hear a phone ring just then. It was Heavyn's cell phone. 

'Hello? Mom, what's going on?! Where are you? What happened to Dad?' she screams. 'He's been shot! By who? Did they catch the person yet?!' she asked. Destiny is trying to stay calm but I notice her looking faint. I rush behind her to catch her in case she passes out.

 'We are on our way! We will get two plane tickets immediately! Stay with him! Send us your location, mom. Love you! See you soon!" Heavyn says, breaking down. She hangs up the phone and looks at Destiny and everyone. 

"Sorry for this, but we must be going. Our father has just been shot and is in critical condition on our secret island. We need to go. Excuse us," they curtsy and rush out to their rooms they had been given.

 My brother and I rush to follow them behind.

 "Where did you put our belongings? We need to go now! Hurry and please bring them to us," Destiny asked, through tears. I sighed and my brother and I head to give them their belongings. 

"Thank you," Heavyn says. 

"We need to go book our flights, so excuse us,"  Devin takes her hand and says.

 "Heavyn, please don't shut us out. We will fly you both out there in our private jet. Let's go. Don't say no because we want to help you both," I said, stopping in front of Destiny.

 She tries to go around me, but I catch her by the waist and whisper in her ear, 'I know what you said about me. Let me help you and nothing more.' She looks up rather quickly and looks shocked. 

"Ugh, fine. Heavyn, let's go with them. They want to help us get there on their private jet so we can reach mom and dad quicker," she said. I smirked. 

"Fine. Please, can we just go? We need to see our father immediately," Heavyn says. We head outside and find our mom and dad and fiancees standing out there.

 "Where are you two going? They need to handle their situation on their own. It is a family emergency, so let them go," our mom said. I look at them in disgust. We just continue to the jet and get on. We tell the pilot to hurry up and fuel up the jet, and hand him the destination. 

"Right away, sir. We'll be ready in 10 minutes time, alright?" the pilot said. 

"Thank you, John," I said. Our father glares at us and we just smiled. 

"We'll be back. And when we get back, they need to be gone, understood? Because next time, they come and do what they did this time, they will not have any future husbands because we will denounce our crowns. Understood?" I said. Our mother sighed. 

"Why would you say such a thing, son? For these two regular women with no status?" our dad yelled.

 "Because, one thing, that you both fail to understand or know about us, is that we don't care about a woman's status to make us feel for them. Do you even love each other? Or is it just for duty? Ask yourselves this question?! Excuse us, we have to leave now!" Devin yelled. 

We get on the jet and we take our seats before the jet begins to take off. I see them below shocked. 

"Wait until we come back and let's see what will happen or what they will try and do," I said, laughing. 

Heavyn is not herself as well as Destiny.

 "Are you both alright? We will be there shortly. Please feel free to take a nap and we will wake you up as soon as we land. You both should be rested before going to see your dad in the hospital, alright?" I said, calmly. They smile and nod to us. They get comfortable and fall asleep a couple of minutes later. 

"Devin, should we stay with them? For the support?" I asked. 

"I was going to stay with them because I didn't plan on going back home anytime soon. They need the support at this time. We will find out who planned and did this ourselves. We will handle them as well, okay?" he said.

 "You're right. We sure will. We'll stay then. John, how much farther away are we from our destination?" I call out to the front.

 "About 3-4 hours away, sir," he replied back.

 "Then, we should also get some sleep since we have a few more hours to go," I said. Devin nodded. We get comfortable and head to sleep.

~A few hours later~ 

I feel the jet landing slowly and see an island. I believe that we just made it to our destination. 

"Devin, we're here! Wake up! John, have we made it?" I call out. 

"Yes, sir. We have made it to the destination, sir. I will get your belongings outside and ready for you all, okay?" he replies. Devin stretches and clears his throat.

"Good. We are here, let's wake them up gently. They look really tired though," he said. 

"Destiny? Heavyn? Are you okay? We landed; we're here now," I call out to them. I see Destiny getting up slowly. Heavyn is whimpering and Devin notices immediately. She seems to be having a nightmare! 

"Heavyn, love. Please wake up. You're having a nightmare, wake up for me," Devin calmly says. He rubs her stomach gently.

 "Mm," Heavyn whimpers, trying to wake up. She groggily opens her eyes and sees us making sure she is alright. 

"We made it love, so let's go check on your dad and where he is," Devin said, with a smile. 

They are shocked! They thought we would drop them and just leave them here! Nope, we are here for the long run!
