The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

CHAPTER 23.0: Secrets and Sincerity

Cade’s POV

I had completed a request by Princess Hannah, and I answered my phone on the way to finish something my Dad assigned me. “Cade get over here.” Lexus said over the phone. “I need you.”

I stopped walking since I didn’t want to get further from his room if he was requesting my presents. “I’m still working unless this is work related.” I was helping out around the castle doing whatever I could. Since I officially wasn’t an aid for Lexus anymore, I didn’t have an exact position here. I was able to choose just about any I wanted but I didn’t feel passionate about any of the jobs here.

Lexus scoffed. “Call it work related if you want just meet me in my room.” I thought about being a guard, but my Mom wouldn’t be happy about that. Her worry isn’t unjustified. There weren’t many attacks or threats around but when there is guards always get injured. Plus, she’s been tense ever sense Aqua arrived. I hated that she felt threatened with my sister around, but I understood it. She was still having a hard time forgiving my Dad for what he did. It would such for me to tell her I wanted a somewhat dangerous job during this time. Sadia says I should go for it if I do become passionate about it.

“Is Aqua there and are you both clothed?” I blamed myself that my younger sister was sleeping with Lexus. I hated it because it wasn’t going to turn out okay for her. This wasn’t the kind of thing our family should be involved in, but I couldn’t let myself blame her. Maybe I did blame her a little…

Lexus took a moment to answer. “We’re clothed, she’s leaving… and she’s gone.”

“I’m on my way.” I hung up. I walked to in the direction of his room, and I saw Aqua turn a corner. I wondered is she’d still like being Lexus’ aid after they go through with the rejection. I love being the aid to my best friend. When they told me I wouldn’t anymore last week I hid how I felt a lot. I knew it was coming even before Aqua showed up. I thought Gray would be the holder and he’d take my position. I got myself to be okay with it a while ago because there was no way I was the holder. I guess that didn’t stop me from feeling bad when I was replaced. When I found out Lexus had already asked me to hangout with Sadia. She knew I was upset, and she was there for me. She even shared personal stories to make me feel better.
