Just a Royal Mess

Chapter 18

Sofia's POV

"Well that went good," I said as we walked backstage and then to the dressing room.

"I thought you were really in love with Franc?" Eleanor asked me confused and a bit curious as she came behind me and closed the door.

"Well I did like her like a lot but and when it ended I was sad but after a point, I realised that it was better if we stayed friends we were better like that" She shrugged I took off my tie and then my coat. "By the way, someones been digging in my past" I with a smirk.

"it's not digging it just checking. I did it to see how much someone find out about you if they dig in your past. Mainly to see if anything about the organization came up." I had been filling her in on what I use to do in the organization.

"Don't worry nothing will ever come up. to all the governments Sofia Reofer is a law binding citizen. The hotel was legally transferred to me. the money from which I bought the hotel is from investments in some companies. In short, it's just a lot of different ways which the money was rotated made white then given to me. so to everyone on the outside, I'm the most law binding citizen ever with no records in any interface as I was never in the front line." I told her to explain everything.

"Good and yeah the investigators couldn't find anything." She shrugged.

"So I was thinking of going to a club tonight you wanna join?" I asked her as I looked at my phone going through the messages.

"You going alone?" she asked.

"Yeah, it's mainly business. I wanted to see how the club is and if I want to buy it and it won't be alone if you join me" I shrugged.

"Ok sure why not," she said as she wore a different pair of heels. "Can I asked you something?" she said and I nodded telling her to go ahead as I texted the current owner of the club that I would be coming today and I'm going to need extra security for my wife.

"Why did you kiss me?" she asked. Ok so are we finally talking about the kiss we had at francs place?

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Outside before went back live, you kissed me and said good luck." She said. well, I guess we still not talking about that passionate kiss we share. Every time I had tried to bring it up she doubted it so I just stopped.

"Oh that, people were recording us, We are supposed to be married. Just trying to make it seem real. If you don't want then I can stop kissing you in public" I said shrugging.

"Nah it's fine your probably right." She nodded. There was a knock on the door and walked Miguel.

"It's time to go. there are a lot of cameras outside so put on your best smile and a little affection won't hurt. You both are supposed to be newly married so love it up a little." did he just school us on how to be a couple? You got to be kidding me.

"Did he just-" she looked at me as Miguel left.

"Yes, he did" I completed for her.

"well I guess we got to love it up then," she said sarcastically doing the jazz hand. God, she was so cute. I smile wore my coat and walked out of the door waiting for Ella.

She came outside an intertwined our hands. I held her close as we walked outside. I buttoned my coat and waved to the crowd outside. Ella stepped out through the glass doors first letting go of my hand and waving. That's when I noticed she was holding my tie that I had left in the dressing room. I walked behind her with my arms around her waist as we waved. We then posed for the cameras.

"Babe the tie" I whispered into her ear and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Oh," she said in realisation and gave it to me. I gave the tie to Miguel as we posed for a few photos. Soon we stepped in the car and were on our way back to the palace.

"I didn't even realize I was holding on to the tie." She facepalmed with her stupid smile.

"It's fine, I'm sure the photos are great with or without them." I shrugged it off. "but the way thanks for picking it up. It's one of my favourite ties" I smiled.

"Your Welcome, living with you one thing I have realized is you forget things a lot" she chuckled.

"I know, I have short-term memory loss" I just shrugged. We soon reached. I stepped out of the car.

One of the servants came towards me and gave me my cigarette box. As I walked in the palace going to the room, Ella was talking to Miguel about tonight's plan.

"Hey, we are going to keep it Low-Key cause I don't need the paps while I'm trying to have fun," I said walking backwards looking at both of them.

"Of course Ma'am" Miguel gave me his signature nod.

I went to the room and light up my Cigarette. Breathing the smoke in and then slowly releasing it out. I leaned on the balcony railing looking out at the garden. It was beautiful and my favourite part of this house. it had a variety of flowers and looking at from the top make it seem like a beautiful painting. Maybe someday I will break out my old painting supplies and paint this.

Ella stood next to me as she took the cigarette from my hand and to a big puff out of it.

"How are you getting this Romanian cigarette here?" she asked me confused.

"Miguel I think has ordered a huge crate of it for me, As he gets you your special Italian whisky."

"Yeah but you like the whisky too" she pointed out as she passed me the cigarette.

"I do just like you like cigarettes," I said and took a puff.
"Ok, so Miguel said we can leave around 9 the cars will be ready. there will be 2 security jeep and well we can take the sedan as none of us can drive as we both are drinking." She said taking the cigarette and taking in the last puff then smashing it on the ashtray. That ashtray looked like it cost like a million bucks, it was that old and antique.

"why do we need soo much security?" I said kinda whining cause the security attracts more attends which then attracts paps AKA it's a Paparazzi magnet.

"Cause if you forgot I'm the Queen to be," she said pointing at herself.

"Ok, but can't we have a night like just the 2 of us?" I said.

"Fine what do you have in mind?" she said crossing her arms giving her full attention to me.

" Oh you wanna know right now," I said as I didn't have a fixed plan in my head. I remembered what Franc and Amber did to avoid security but it was just one guard so we might have to get a bit more innovative. "Ok, this is your house do you know how to get out of here without getting detecting? Like you know any bathroom windows or something that we can jump out of ?" I asked.

"Well I didn't really grow up here but I do know the blind spots. We can go to the Left side of the garden and then there is this house there, it's some old security outpost we can get out of there" she said shrugging.

"Ok then get ready we are going out," I said with a smirk.
