KINGS REPLACED QUEEN

AZAR’S POV

It was a long drive that ended at a mansion, much like the estate of Grandpa who we address as Grandfather all. He does command it with his title and his stature.

As soon as the car came to a halt, I hopped out and opened the door for Grandfather.

Suddenly I felt someone’s gaze. My eyes searched and stopped at a place. I looked up and notice a beautiful girl looking at us.

‘Beautiful, and that too, a girl?” My mind tripped over the jokes in my head. However, my eyes stayed stuck on her.

As soon as our eyes met, she hid behind a wall.

I smirked at her childishness. Shaking my head, we walked towards the main door before we rang the bell; Grand pa, my grandfather’s best friend, welcomed us with his son- and daughter-in-law.

They welcomed us and Grandfather with a warm embrace.

We all sat in the living room as the conversations began to flow. While the atmosphere was light, I was torn trying to find a way out of this alliance without hurting anyone’s emotions. I could see my grandfather was emotionally invested in this relationship. Hence, I tread cautiously.

My chain of thought broke when I heard someone with a lyrical voice saying Hello. I was both drawn and excited by that greeting. The greeting somehow brought about a sense of calm. Maybe it was because of the lack of a guiding female figure in my life. The only one I could count on was my Aunt Nina. (I was a little perplexed as the thought propped up. Counting on Grandfather and the nanny)

As my eyes drew towards the sound, I notice the same beautiful girl who hid herself not too long ago. To my surprise, she ran towards Grandfather and gave him a tight squeeze. She started blabbering with Grandfather, and he chuckled at her and with her. The warmth she showed towards Grandfather and the Child-like excitement in her had a bit of an irritating effect on me. I had to remain cordial and restrained myself from doing anything untoward. Meanwhile, I noticed that she was very close to Grandfather, and did care about him a lot and not only him, but she knew Aunt Nina (nanny) as well.

As far as I know my grandfather is not the person whole; mingles with world. He is staying far so he can live his life peacefully without any people’s drama. But I can see this girl seems close to them. Her statement is clear indication she is close to even my granny too.

I could sense that she was good at heart. ‘Have you ever known a woman was good? Have You? Have You?’ My mind mocked me. What was the reason she was nice to Grandfather? What does she want? What has she set her eyes on?

Oh, yes, how could I forget? She knows why we are here. She wants Sanya to get married to me. By now, Grandfather had already spoken about Sanya, who I was to wed to keep the lineage going and bind the houses together, stronger than ever.

‘Well, Princess, that is not going to happen.’ With that thought, I chuckled.

But there was this one thing I couldn’t deny. She had the most beautiful smile I had ever seen in my life. And those dimples were to die for.
