THIRD PERSON'S POV :

Grace was waiting for Beta Tyler who left her in a cafe saying he will be back in a minute but it's been already 20 and still there were no sign of him. she couldn't help but think why they came to the town's cafe instead of straightly heading towards the kingdom palace.

"Princess grace! " a voice spoke from her left. she turned around to meet a familiar face . at first grace was confused and didn't knew how to react to the person who is standing in front of her . she didn't knew him personally. it's just what she read from forums and the old tales of his family.

this man is named Alexander , eldest son of Queen Victoria Ellison and the brother of the Andrew Ellison , the council head. although they are family but it's all in name. everyone in this supernatural society is very well clear of the feud between the family but no one knows the reason why?

people assume it because of the throne . the younger son is the future heir to the throne when there is the elder one who is much more capable and powerful.

in human world the person in front of her is the infamous multinational CEO who even ranked first in the list of men, girls wanted to marry. this person has graced too many famous magazines not only because of his wealth and power but because of his looks . truth be told, grace once thought that this man hands down owned the crown of the handsomest creature on the earth but that's before she met Dimitri.

Grace bowed her head before looking back at him .

" Lord Alexander ."

he had such a strong presence that no one can try to disrespect him. he excluded a similar kind of coldness as well . although his eyes, she thought, weren't as cold as dimitri.

" the person i so wanted to meet . what a coincidence! "

Grace was getting more and more confused with each and every word of his but before she could say or ask something alexander spoke up again.

" since we have finally met . let me give you an advice as a gift , don't trust him too much . "

" i am sorry ! what ?! " Grace was very well clear of whom he was pointing towards. it was just she couldn't make any sense of what he was saying.

a smile crossed his face as he saw her faking the question.

" when you find out what he wants, you will be begging for mercy . " the seriousness in his tone made grace to think for what and why did he just said this.

Grace was about to say something but stopped when she heard footsteps coming closer to them . she could feel her heart beating faster with every coming step. her jaw dropped as she raised her face to meet with the familiar pair of eyes.

"i am a few minutes late and you already got distracted by some annoying fly " Dimitri said looking straight at her.

did this man just called that person a fly? how can he call such person of that caliber , a fly?? grace thought to herself and before she could say something she heard Dimitri pull a chair towards her left opposite to alexander as his arm snaked around her shoulder.

"So, why are you here , huh , Alex ? " Dimitri didn't beat around the bush. the way Dimitri talked to him really surprised her.

Grace had heard a lot about Alexander from Selina too. Selina didn't like Alexander . she could tell because she had heard Selina saying that this person was another man from hell. That was why Selina's lips twitched everytime other girl expressed their love for him , always saying - ' eh wait until you see who the person really is. he is a demon in disguise , you fools ' but for grace, the guy in front of him can be an another man from hell but she have already seen the whole hell in the eyes of the man sitting next to her and yet it doesn't bother her.

" i have some business to take care of in this city " was all he replied. he didn't seem bothered by Dimitri cold attitude towards him and seemed to be relaxed.

" why come here , then ? you have hotels everywhere Alex! " Dimitri was just being his usual cold self , almost as if he didn't know how to be polite at all.

" Of course it's because I like this place the most in this city "

Dimitri just let out a sigh as Alexander just nonchalantly continued eating the dishes the waiter served a while ago . the atmosphere just then shifted a little tense , like there was some invisible friction between these two men and grace couldn't help but feel tensed . it didn't seemed to be the friction between enemies but it still seemed damn heavy for her. it appeared that Selina word about alexander added tension she was feeling as well .

she looked around to find the whole cafe empty. the board on the door was now saying ' closed for business ' . she seemed to be really shocked as she didn't realized when was it that everyone left.

while grace was busy with her own thoughts Alexander spoke again.

" C'mon " was all he said.

" Alex, let me just tell you visitors are not welcome here for these few months " Dimitri smugly said and the man paused for a moment . this person's movements and manners , she noticed, were also elegantly graceful like Dimitri. it was then she noticed how similar his facial features and actions were to Dimitri .

he looked up and met Dimitri's gaze .

" you're really gonna kick out your family ? "
