Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 125

125 Chapter 2

If there was one thing Heaven could change about her life, it would be being a princess. Because of her title, she had been unable to make many friends, or meet new people, or walk around the streets freely, or meet a man and fall in love.

Heaven knew she was being ungrateful. Yes, she couldn't do all those things, but she had many good things in life that other people didn't have.

Life was all about taking the good with the bad. "No one lives a perfect life." That's what her mother used to say. Now she wondered what her father would say about letting her go out.

He wouldn't let her. She knew it already. Yet she would try, once again.

As she waited in the hall for her father's meetings to end, she thought of ways to convince him.

'Dear father, I have been suffocating…'

No, that would be too much.

'Your Majesty, as an adult woman who can take decisions for herself and be responsible for them I would like to go out. Alone.'

No, that was too formal. She needed to add more feelings so that her father would sympathise with her.

Or, she could act like a real grownup and tell him straight that she would go out and no one would stop her. But she wasn't used to going against her father's will.. He was her weakness. She loved him more than anything because she knew how much he adored her.

If it was her mother made who taught her everything then it was her father who gave her all the love in the world.

The clicking sound of footsteps echoed in the hall, and soon after whispers followed. Heaven knew it was her father coming. He would always make heads turn, cheeks flush and hearts race whenever and wherever he appeared.

All the females in the castle were smitten by him. Even some men. Heaven couldn't blame them. She had overheard a maid once describe him as a walking temptation. That, Heaven wasn't sure of, but yes, her father was very good looking. And he hadn't aged a bit. He still looked the same as when she was a child. It was the demon part, of course, which very few people knew of.

The only people who knew about them being demons, were her father right-hand man Lincoln and left-hand man Julian who, by the way, was also a witch. Then there were her mother's two guardian angels, as Heaven liked to call them, Callum and Oliver, who also knew about it. Heaven adored these two men because they took care of her when she was a child. Her mother's two handmaidens Lydia and Ylva also knew about their secret.

When Heaven was a child, her mother would trust no one to take care of her except for Lydia and Ylva. Therefore, both were very close to her heart. Heaven's own guards and maids knew nothing, and for that reason she felt alone sometimes.

"Good morning, my princess." Her father smiled as he neared. Then he grabbed her face between his hands and kissed her forehead, as usual.

A frown settled on her father's face. "What makes you sad?" He asked.

"Father please, I would like to go out alone. Please." Heaven begged.

"But Lord Aristo is coming to meet you today." Her father reminded.

Lord Aristo was a very well-known and a wealthy businessman. But he should stick to business and not try to become a king.

"I don't want to meet these old men."

Her father chuckled. "I can assure you he is not old."

"Father, I never ask you for anything," because he already gave her everything before she could ask. "I just want to go out without having guards trailing behind me."
