Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

"No I don't," he replied with a chuckle.

"Uh why?" She asked skeptical of his answer.

"I don't have a girlfriend. I like someone but she is way over my league," he said sadly and continued towards the entrance of the café.

This café was very popular for their cakes and she had being craving cake for some hours now. Occasionally, she goes out with Eric for some research. She hardly goes out much before and Eric said it was going to limit her creativity..

They had to leave late along with some of the club members because of an assignment they were given by their head teacher. Her car was enough to make people look towards her, her and Eric's appearance did not lose to the car too.

The two goodlooking high schoolers walked into the café ignoring all the gazes and glances directed towards them. It was as though the were aware of their attractiveness and did not mind stealing the spot little.

Rose looked at the cakes and bread on display in the show glass and could not help but gulp. It was five months ago when she first tasted a cake from this shop.

Eric bought it one day when he came to her house to see her work space. She became a fan of their cake since then. She also bought bread occasionally with Eric.

"Rose," a familiar voice whispered to her close to her ear.

She shivered suppressing the urge to push her playful sister away. "Anna," she said with a smile that wasn't a total smile.

"Wicked sister. You came here all alone without me. You are a traitor," Anna said frowning playfully with a pout pretending not to see the threat in her sister's smile.

"I just finished my assignment in school," Rose replied smiling completely.

"Poor girl," Anna said further pouting her lips as she hugged her sister's arm. "My friends are over there, go and join them. What do you want? I will order it for you," Anna said pointing at a table at the far end of the café where all her friends sat.

"Ok," Rose agreed immediately since she could use some rest.

"You actually succeeded in stealing my sister from me, pretty boy," Anna said throwing her hand around Eric's shoulder pulling to him down to her height since he was more than six inches taller than her.

"I said, don't call me pretty boy," Eric warned her trying to straighten his height feeling uncomfortable with having to bend to her height.

"I will call you whatever I feel like calling you," she replied determined to disturb him. "I really hated you but I also like you because you are helping my sister with her work."

"I wish you will hate me," he replied trying to remove her hand from his shoulder but decided to let her keep her hands around his neck in that uncomfortable manner as she led him to the seat.

Anna chuckled and released his neck but wrapping her hand around his arm. "My sister has a boyfriend," she whispered reducing their walking speed as she planned to have enough time to warm him.

"I don't care," Eric replied seriously now as he found it annoying to take ten minutes to get to a place that will normally take him two minutes to get to. "I said I don't like your sister."

"Then why are you hanging around her?" Anna asked in disbelief.

"I respect her. I learn things from her and she is my friend," he replied trying to increase their pace but Anna pulled his arm completely stopping now. "What now?"

"Don't dare steal her work like that girl last year or I will have your head hung on the school's gate," she told him sternly. She released his arm and gave him an eyes-on-you sign before going to join her sister and friends.

"Anna misses you," Debby said after they exchanged greetings with Rose.

"How?" Rose asked confused. She woke up everyday in the same house with Anna and they still spent time together. "I saw her this morning."

"You are being insensitive again," Debby said shaking her head tiredly.

Rose looked at them confused and glanced at Anna who was already close to their table with Eric.

From the second floor of the café, someone was watching them intently with his cold unique grey eyes. He frowned when the pretty boy sat beside Rose.

He had seen the guy a lot with Rose infact, they were together almost every time but after careful investigation, he could not find anything bad about the boy. He knew the guy's parents well and the guy was helping Rose in some ways according to Charlie's report.

Despite that, he could not relax with that guy so close to Rose. He returned to his seat and closed his eyes with a sigh as he sat down. Charlie glanced at Gray and back at his boss. He might not be able to prevent himself from going to that boy, taking him away and threatening to stay away from Rose.

"Let's leave now," Liam said standing after he was sure that his raging heart had calmed down.

Rose felt eyes on her almost drilling holes into her and she turned to meet a pair of grey eyes two couples of metres away from her. She gulped holding a piece of chocolate cake away from her lips.

The eyes moved away making her shocked by how much that gaze affected her. She could swear that time stopped but snapping back to reality, she knew he only glanced at her. She dropped her gaze to the piece of cake she wanted to eat.

"Wow," Wayne said under his breath when he realized the whole café had gone silent to reference such powerful presence. It was as though the whole café froze and only melted seconds after he walked out of the door. He could not remember any mortal that possessed such powerful aura like Liam.

"Wow," Debby echoed completely mesmerized by the beauty that just walked out of the café. It was a pity he was too powerful for her to imagine locking him up all to herself.

"Wow," Anna echoed swallowing the lump that formed in her throat. She rubbed the goosebumps that formed on her arms in his presence. She had long forgotten that it seemed like Jace's brother hated her only to be reminded.

Rose took the piece of cake into her mouth and began cutting another piece as though she had not witnessed the spectacular presence. She played the scene over and over on her mind.

He was dressed in a simple black shirt tucked in a black pair of trousers. She was surprised by how inhumanly grey his eyes were. It was the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen and it could make almost anyone freeze.

Eric glanced at his friend and at the door Liam walked out of. His parents worked with the Hart family but after Liam left the Hart family, his mother followed Liam but his dad remained with the Hart family.

He over heard one day while his parents were talking that Liam was looking for something long lost and his father was also looking for it. Liam's power greatly increased after he left the Hart family. He became more feared than the Hart family.

They said he was a bigger weapon dealer than the Hart had ever been. He took over some research institutes and a lot of institutes and companies lost their ownership to him. He was getting more and more powerful causing even the royal family to become scared of him.

From what he also over heard from his father, Liam had being planning to leave the Hart family almost immediately after he became officially a member of the Hart family. His father also said Liam was only using the Hart family to get what he wanted.

He found it weird to see such powerful person in a café. A lot of people were hunting his life but he came into a café with only his three closest subordinates. The respect he had for Liam only amplified as he could help but smile.
