Never force anything. Just let it be. If it's meant to be, it will be ---- Unknown Author
"Princess, I would like to have an audience with you, the Knights, Ladies of the Court, and most especially to the twins. I am ready to confess everything to you for I can't see another man talking and stalk at you all the time," Nikolai told her as he was looking at her eyes and cups her face. Rosela nods her head but she has tears on her eyes, Luna and Amber gasp in shock, Isabele, Audrey, and Sapphire widen their eyes but at the corner of the room there was Ethan who is sulking but he clenches his fist in anger as he stared at Nikolai and Rosela.
"He is confessing to her, Mr. ABS is finally confessing to her" Amber whispered to Harry, Harry furrowed his brows upon hearing his fiancés words then slowly look was Ethan was, and right there and then he saw how red Ethan's face was and it seems that Louie and Kim are consoling him because of the sudden declaration of Mr. ABS to Rosela whom he was wooing.
"Finally! Nikolai's senses have already awakened. And I hope that Rosela also feels the same way like he does for her" Alexei uttered and Cassie heard it. "I think Rosela feels the same way with him, Darling, can't you see it through her eyes?" Cassie butts in.
Prince Timothy and Duchess Clarisse were not surprised anymore about Nikolai's declaration of his intention to their only daughter, they knew that this right-hand guy of the di Lucchesi Family loves their daughter Since she turned fifteen but he fell in love with her so deeply when they introduce her to the society when she turned eighteen, that time he wants to hide Rosela from those men who seemed fly around her. A five-year gap between their daughter and Nikolai is not bad for them at all, and Nikolai was Rosela's bodyguard/mentor in martial arts and shooting, but Nikolai controls his feelings towards her for he still thinks that their status will become a hindrance and he thinks that she will not like him....but that what he thinks of back then. Nikolai already talk to both of them and confessed his intentions with their daughter, but he made up his mind that he will wait for her to come up to the proper age of getting married.
Nikolai didn't forget to tell to the other great bosses about his feelings towards Princess Rosela, then he asked permission to Dimitri, Ryder, and the four Knights especially to Xavier that if they will permit him to pursue Rosela. They've agreed and gave their blessings to him but still, it seems that he doesn't have the guts to do it. That's why the HADES boys help him by sending threats to those men who try to woo Rosela back then, the Ladies of the Court on the other hand sends threats to those women who tries to throw themselves to Nikolai for they are the only ones who knew about Rosela's feelings towards him.
It is only they found out that their daughter feels the same when Luna who found out that Rosela feels the same way towards Nikolai, it is when Nikolai saves the Luna from kidnappers and he almost got shot. Rosela shouted in fear that Nikolai got a wound because he protected her when she almost got shot in once of their missions. Nikolai still didn't know about Rosela's feelings but all the members of the HADES family already knew about it and even Ivan and Irwin, but still they keep it as a secret for they want Nikolai to be awakened and start to pursue the lovely Princess.
Since the two are not moving and it seems that they are rooted to where they are standing, Xavier smiled at his fiancée and he asks Samantha that he will be right back for he needs to knock the heads of the two new love birds. Xavier walks towards them and the other Ladies of the Court together with their partners seemed to feel the atmosphere heated up because of the sudden declaration dispersed right away. Nikolai and Rosela are still rooted and staring at each other, it looks like they are dancing, then a piece of a soft love song was heard, and as the great bosses gaze fell on the twins' who is now giggling because they've done some extra help for the new love birds. The song Let me Love you this way by James Ingram (youtube.com/watch?v=cQjD-M7W9E8&list=PLGTY6bQ-gLimRpi4t0iuTMAZIJagn0qjq&index=7) was heard and the song was meant for both love birds. "That is my unspoken words for you My Princess, Let me love you the way I know, and the way you will feel secure by my side. You are my forever, and my once a lifetime girl, and from now on everything I'll do, and even my decisions is for our future," Nikolai told Rosela whose hands still cupped her face and Rosela is now tearing up.
When Xavier stood right in front of them, he saw the shocked face of Rosela while Nikolai's face assures her of what he feels for her, Xavier chuckled for he knew that his sister will be delighted if she found out that Nikolai's feelings for her lasted for so many years and they just both didn't give signals to each other, then Xavier can't take it anymore of the silence that envelopes the whole room.
General Xavier: "Rosela, my dear sister, you don't need a perfect man nor a perfect relationship with someone all you need is someone who loves you dearly, loves your weirdness, wants to spend time with you even if you have switches and mood swings and most of all respects you. And you deserve to be with someone who looks at you every day with the realization that you are everything that he needs."
Rosela and Nikolai seemed brought back to their senses when they heard Xavier words, "I'm Sorry Prince Xavier" Nikolai suddenly took his hands off to Rosela's face but he immediately holds her right hand and intertwined it unto his left hand. Xavier smiled and nods his head, "I think my sister needs to fix herself for you already...I mean you have finally confessed your intention towards her, later after dinner, we will talk privately. But right now (Xavier turns to Rosela) My Dear Sister, you need to freshen up for you look like a clown because of your tear-stained face and Nikolai will be with us, don't worry I will not eat nor kill him." Xavier told Rosela as he controls his laughter because Rosela looks like a clown with pouting lips. Xavier gave a gesture to Pearl to help her fix herself, but it was Samantha, Cassie, and Jessy who walks towards them as they can see the rest of the Ladies of the Court have a teasingly eyes on them.
While the Wu triplets help Rosela, Luna drags Francois to where Louie and his friends are, "Ethan may we have a word with you?" Luna asks Ethan as soon as they arrive on their side, Francois who is holding Luna's right hand, gave her a tight squeeze for they can both see the sadness on Ethan's eyes.
Louie look at her and gave a faint smile, while Kim taps Ethan's shoulder as he brought him back unto reality, "I am sorry Luna, I daze off. What can do you want to talk about?" Ethan asks Luna but there is a hint of loneliness on his tone. Luna smiled at him, 'Come with us, Louie, Kim you can join us so that you two will be the witness beside my husband Francois. Am I right My King?" Luna told them but she didn't forget to ask Francois. "Whatever you say, My Queen, You knew that I am your slave" Francois proudly replied.
The five of them went out and Luna together with Francois brought Louie, Ethan, and Kim to the spare room where the photos of all HADES main family were posted on walls and even the paintings were there, Louie and his friends were amused to see the collections of paintings and photos of the HADES main family members. As soon as they entered the room, Luna spoke.
Luna: " I am sorry Ethan, I am sorry if I didn't tell you that Rosela has already someone in her heart. It's just that I don't want you to say or have this idea that I will not allow you to be with Rosela since I and Louie have a past. I don't want you to have this idea that Rosela will not or didn't choose you because of me."
Ethan: "its okay Luna, It's just that I was quite shocked a while ago."
Louie: "Luna, Princess Rosela is the first woman who didn't fall for Ethan's looks, and she manages to change Ethan as a whole being on how he sees his life with her."
Francois: "I am sorry for that Mr. Ethan Li. Nikolai like Rosela since she was fifteen and he fell deeply in love with her at the age of eighteen when her parents introduce her to society. We, the Knights, Dimitri, Ryder, and even Sheik Jamil already knew about his feelings with her way back then for he asked our permission if he can pursue the Princess. And, My Queen, My Luna... My wife was the one who found out about Rosela's feelings towards him. It's just that they are both stubborn enough not to confess to each other."
Louie felt a stabbing pain when he heard Viscount Francois calling Luna as "My Luna....My Wife" for those terms of endearment was just for him to be called for Luna. Kim could feel the body of Louie became stiff as soon as he heard those words. Kim manage to tap his shoulder and as Louie looks at him, Kim shook his head indicating that he has no right to be jealous anymore for he and Louie were not a couple anymore.
