Chapter 26

 

***W..Who the hell stopped the time???!!****

Muriel was so scared because she doesn`t know if the one who stops the time is a friend or a foe. She notices that everyone around her stopped to including Prince Nathan and when she looked at Luca, he suddenly opened his eyes slowly. He looked away from Muriel and wipes his tears away. She suddenly saw Luca`s eyes that felt so stress inside.

***D..Did he stop the time just to wipe his tears??***

When Luca was about to look at Muriel again, Muriel immediately pretended that she can`t move at all. Luca suddenly held Muriel`s hand that is holding his cheeks. He kissed her palm and smell her hands lovingly which made Muriel blushed.

***W..What are you doing Luca???****

Luca then suddenly looked so sad and said

"I miss you, Mui."

Muriel immediately felt guilty about not trusting Luca.

"I wanna hug you so bad, I want you to only look at me, I wanna take you just for myself but—"

Luca suddenly leans his forehead against Muriel`s forehead which made Muriel nervous.

"This time… I wanna be naughty."

Luca then slowly kissed Muriel in her lips lovingly. Muriel felt that the thorn in her heart suddenly melts away. Luca then slowly get away from her lips. He closed his eyes while still leaning his forehead towards Muriel`s forehead and said

"Forgetting my feelings for you is so damn hard..."

Tears suddenly fell in his eyes again as he said

"I wish I didn`t fell in love with you this much…"

Muriel suddenly felt so sad hearing those words from him. She wanted to say something but she can`t even speak due to Luca`s power.

"I wish I didn`t met you."

***L..Luca, NO… I love you so much too... Don`t forget me… ****

*** PLEASE… I`M SORRY… I WAS JUST CONFUSE! I WAS HURT! ****

Luca then slowly came back to his position when he stopped the time. He wipes his tears away again and prepared himself to continue the time. As soon as he continues the time, He was surprised when he saw Muriel`s tears as she looked at him.

"W..Why are you crying?"

Hannah heard what Luca said and took a slight peak towards Muriel and saw some tears in her eyes.

"Oh no, what happen Muriel? Are you not comfortable by this pose??? I`ll stop this if you want."

Muriel immediately wipe her tears away and said

"No, I…I`m kinda allergic to my eye liner I guess. It makes my eyes cry."

"Oh? Let me help you out."

Hannah stops her pose and immediately grab Muriel out of the stage to remove her make up in the restroom. Luca was left stunned and just stared as both Hannah and Muriel went to the restroom. The modelling rehearsal immediately ended.

Hannah then wipe Muriel`s eyes with a tissue and rinse it with water.

"Does it hurt still?"

Muriel still can`t stop crying. She remembered what Luca said and it keeps on replaying inside her mind.

"Y..Y..Yeah, It hurts. I think I need to rest for a while."

"Oh, Sure! I`ll call the assigned maids to take you to your room and the royal doctor to check it up then. Please continue rinsing it with water while I`m gone, okay?"

"Yeah, Thanks, Princess Hannah"

As soon as Hannah went out, Muriel immediately tried so hard to stop her eyes from crying. She can`t imagine life without Luca. She suddenly felt that Luca made her fell in love with him more than she loves dresses.

Prince Nathan then knocks the door and said

"Muriel, Are you okay? My sister went ahead for our royal duties, I insisted to take you to your room first before I go."

She then opened the door and went outside and said

"Thank you, Prince Nathan"

Nathan saw how serious her allergy in that eye liner.

"Would you like me to call the royal doctor? It`s kinda serious, I think we need to check it up."

"No, I`m fine really. I think I just need to rest and stop using that kind of brand."

"Are you sure?"

"Ye..Yes.."

"Okay then. I`ll just order some anti-allergy eye liner for you and deliver it to your room."

"T..Thank you, Prince Nathan."

As soon as they arrived at Muriel`s room, she immediately went inside alone and locks the door. Prince Nathan then immediately went back to his royal duties first.

She continued to cry so hard in her bed while hugging a big pillow.

***Why do you want to forget me Luca???****

***Does your love that shallow for wanting to forget me just because I was jealous? ****

***NO, He want to forget me because I didn`t trust him…****

***Why am I even crying!! He`s not my boyfriend!!****

***B…B..But ---- I LOVE HIM SO MUCCHHH.. I don`t want to lose HIMMM…. ***

  She then touches her lips and remembered Luca`s kiss.

She didn`t know that Luca was outside her door waiting and wanted to ask if she`s okay. He was about to knock the door but he suddenly heard Muriel mentioning his name.

"Luca…"

He was surprised and continued to listen.

"I want to kiss you so bad… Luca…"

"I`m so sorry…. --- I didn`t trust you… I was blinded by extreme jealousy."

Luca felt that the thorn in his heart suddenly melts away.

****She`s extremely jealous??***

"I want to be the only one who`s allowed to touch you… your body… your hands… your face… everything"

Luca suddenly felt shivers and blushed

***Is she a pervert now???***

He was about to left but he suddenly heard her again.

"Please, don`t leave me, Luca."

He stopped in his tracks and continued to listen.

"I love you so much… I… I don`t want to lose you… Luca"

Muriel cried so hard again and Luca immediately left.

 

 

 

 

[Luca`s Room]

 

Hunter and Greg were there waiting for him. When Luca entered, the two of them are laying down in his bed.

"Oh! Brother! Where have you been?"

"Yeah Emperor! I heard the practices ended early, did you go on a date with one of the models?"

Luca saw them chilling in his bed and said

"WHY ARE YOU LAYING IN MY BED??? YOU GUYS DOESN`T EVEN KNOW HOW TO TAKE A BATH PROPERLY!"

Both of them got up and just sits down in his bed.

"Relax brother, we`ve been here for almost an hour already, so we decided to take a nap."

Greg then notice Luca`s eyes and said

"Did you cry, my emperor?"

Hunter then notice his eyes and ask about it.

"What happen? Are you love sick again??? ---- Greg! Check his health immediately!"

Greg smiled as if they are teasing Luca. He immediately pulled Luca to sit in his bed.

"Oh! come on stop it you two!!"

"No, my emperor I need to check the level of your love sickness HAHAHA"

"HAHAHA yeah brother! Greg is right! So, how`s my modelling set up for you? Did you enjoy it?"

Luca remembered himself being paired with both Hannah and Muriel. He then looked at Hunter angrily.

"Argg!! It`s your scheme you shit!!!"

Luca immediately grab Hunter`s neck and immediately ruin his hair.

"You brat!!! You should have gone home!!!"

"Hey, stop it now brother hahahaha"

Luca then stopped and push Hunter away annoyingly. He then laid down in his bed and the two of them also laid down beside him.

"So, tell us what happened brother."

Luca then mesmerize the ceiling of his room and said

"I want to forget her… So bad!"

Greg was shock and said

"Why? You love her so bad right?"

"Well, that`s the point! I love her so much that it gives me headache!"

Hunter just smiled and never uttered a word.

**Nah, you won`t forget her brother, he`s one of your fiancée candidate hahaha***

Luca breathe so deep and said

"I`m on my way to forget her but you know what!?"

"What brother?"

"I stopped the time and kiss her! I can`t resist her stares! I was so tempted!"

"Omyygoodness Emperor!! HAHAHAHA"

Luca blushed so hard and hides his face.

"I didn`t know your that pervert brother! HAHAHA You even use your power just to take advantage of a girl HAHAHA"

"Y..Yeah! I know what I did was wrong you know! I just can`t help it!"

Luca suddenly look so childish and said

"She was so beautiful up close…"

Both of them stop laughing when they saw Luca so in love. Greg and Hunter suddenly said in unison.

"Is it Hannah?"

"Is it Muriel?"

Hunter and Greg looked at each other surprisingly. Luca also looked at them shockingly and said

"I..It`s Muriel… The Mermaid"
