Chapter 1NOT NOW

The silence, the silence is so deafening that if a pin was dropped it would be heard by everyone in the room. No one has moved since the doctor came in and gave the news my mother is dead but the baby with her survived. Not that I hate the fact that my now baby sister was alive but why did mom have to go I mean couldn't both of them stay? Now the only parent I had left is gone too.

My name is Destiny Peters i am an 18 year old highschool girl from Maryland USA and this is my story.

When I was 9 years old my father and mother separated leaving me alone with my mother and she was the best. She was a disciplinarian but she has never physical or emotionally abused me in any way and i love her. Few years later when i was 15 mom got pregnant for a guy she was dating but he didn't want her so he left. Mom gave birth to Veronica December that year. I became a big sister. And at about few months ago mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was at it's early stage so it was easy for us to start treating it. But two days ago mom and Veronica were in an accident and she was hurt really bad Veronica had just a little scratch. The doctor came to tell us that she was dead. Mom's best friend and younger sister aunt Lizz was quite but she was crying. Veronica didn't Know what was going on but she kept asking for mom and i didn't know what to do or say but I just kept on hugging her and telling her mom wasn't coming back. She understood but she was just three so she didn't really feel much.

" come on destiny let's go home " aunt Lizz said as she got up from her seat.

l said nothing and just followed her. Knowing my aunt she wouldn't want mom staying another day in the hospital so her burial was fixed for tomorrow afternoon. By the time we got home Veronica was a sleep I took her to her room a lay her down. I went down stairs to see and Lizz sitting down in the living room.

"you should call Mom and Dad"

and by Mom and Dad she meant my maternal grandparents. They are loaded and when I mean loaded they are wealthy they are people you say came from old money. They didn't approve mom's marriage to dad. So when they got married the entire family cut ties with Mom her older siblings inclusive except for Aunt Lizz. Mom literally raised her and they have been close. Mom had five siblings. Three older brothers one older sister and a younger sister. Her older sister died two years ago in a car crash as well. when she heard the news she was devastated. and as for the three older brothers they don't know I exist. Only my grandparents and Aunt Lizz do.

"Aunt Lizz i love you and all and i know you want what is best for us but i don't want to be near them or want anything from them"

"they want to meet you guys"

"but I don't want Veronica to meet them at all. they didn't want us so we don't need them. Mom left us enough money to last us a very long time I'm almost done with highschool. will skip college for a year to work"

"there are so many things you don't know Destiny so many things have happened under your nose but please being with them is the best thing now"

" I thought you were on our side" I said with an almost angry voice.

l kept on looking trying to show her how I feel about the whole thing.

" I am on your side that is why I said you should do it. If not for yourself but for Veronica. Your mom is dead your dad isn't here at least do that for her"

"she doesn't need them she has me" I said already crying

"and you she will always have. Just come to London with me they are all waiting for both of you"

"all?"

" yes. I told Dominic, Richard, Johnny and they want to see you "

"why?"

"you guys are our sisters kids and that makes you family"

"I don't want to"

"please Destiny"

"will you be there?"

"I'm always there i just come to this God forsaken country because of you guys"

she said with a big smile while hugging me and I hugged her back. I really love her.

"I have to go to bed. good night" I said while going upstairs.

"good night" she called after me

I went to Veronica's room instead and lay on her bed with her. I hugged her so tight and I started to cry again. I would be going to meet a family I didn't know what they looked like and I'm doing it for Veronica. In as much as i don't want it I have no choice. And with thinking about that I was over powered by sleep.

My Evil Crown Prince

WARNING: [R-18] Fairy tales usually end in happy endings. But the life of a royal is not always a lap of luxury. Twelve years ago, she became the Crown Princess and the fiance of the next King of Flousia, but a strict rule was given to her that the engagement should be kept a secret. Alira Eleanor Wilson was the daughter of the wealthiest family in the country. As an heiress, she was treated like a delicate flower—always guarded and protected. And she was good at following the rules. At the age of six, she got engaged to the Crown Prince of the neighbouring country. But after the engagement, she was sent back home and never seen him again. Caden Hulls-Richards became the secret heir to the throne of Flousia at the age of six. He became the Crown Prince when the kingdom was at war with the mafia. He got engaged to Alira, his childhood crush, but was separated from her because of some circumstances. They were childhood sweethearts. He was the sweetest boy when they were young. He was her first love and being the crown princess she felt like fairy tales were real. But twelve years without seeing each other and years of longing and hope, Alira felt betrayed and abandoned. She had enough of always following the rules and being protected all the time. She decided to join her friends in a group date, but ended up being caught by none other than her fiance. And what if she discovered her prince charming had two identities? A crown prince by day and the boss of the most notorious Mafia Clan by night. Can she perfectly portray both role as the crown princess and the future wife of a mafia boss? ****************************************** EXCERPT: Her eyes widened while looking at Caden's naked body. But what made her heart beat faster was when he turned to look at her. His eyes seemed so cold and distant. As if he wasn't the Caden she knew. He stared at her like she was someone he didn't know. "C-Caden, I-I'm sorry. I called your name b-but you didn't answer." She stuttered. She was supposed to run away when Caden walked toward him. She froze and couldn't take a single step. His upper body wasn't full of scars, but it was full of tattoos. He had a rose tattoo on his neck, a skull pierced with a sword, and wings on his chest. THIS IS A SEQUEL OF MY BOOK MY EVIL BOY TOY!
