Chapter 697 - Six Hundred And Ninety-Seven: Stay Away From That Girl

The third point of view:

Anika and Akim headed down to the road without a word spoken between them. Now the safety bubble they lived in for the past hours was broken, it now dawned on Akim the severity of the situation he was in. His father would be goddamned mad.

But he was snapped out of his thought when someone took his hand and intertwined them together.

He looked at Anika who said, "If you're that scared, I'll come to the palace and explain to your parents that I'm the one who kidnapped you," She joked.

Akim offered a small smile, "Don't worry, I'm his son and the only prince of Lincolnshire, he won't kill me,"

"Well, if you say so then," she said.

The both of them stood by the roadside and waited for a taxi that would take them back home.

"Thank you for today," Akim said out of nowhere while they waited, "Today was the happiest I've ever known,"

Anika pursed her lips, "You're welcome. Also....." she took a step closer and then asked him, "What are we now? As far as I know, friends don't kiss each other or plan to you know," She wriggled her brows suggestively

Akim went red in the face and he turned his face the other way even when he said, "Let's date then,"

"Sure, let's date," Anika wrapped her arm around his, agreeing right away. There was no gain in playing hard to get, especially when she's on a mission in the first place.

"But please," Akim added, "No sexting,"

"Fine," She agreed right away, leaning to his side and breathing in his scent. Anika sighed, "I wish the taxi would arrive a little later so I could spend more time with you,"

Akim smiled at her comment, however, his attention was grabbed when a car at high speed suddenly stopped right in front of him and men in black suits stepped out immediately.

"Oh shit," it was his security details.

However, before he could warn Anika, the girl was shoved away roughly that she fell while Akim was manhandled by the men.

"Anika!" Akim was more concerned for her safety.

"Don't worry, Akim, I'm good!" She informed him, getting to her feet, "Just go with them, please,"

After confirming that she was okay, Akim willingly went ahead with his security, glancing one last look at Anika before the car drove away.

But as soon as the car left, Anika made a call to her mother Fiona, "The mission was successful, there would be a friction in their relationship from tonight,"

"Good work," Fiona told her before she suddenly asked her, "By the way are you okay?"

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing," Fiona said and unknown to Anika, she was staring down at an image of the both of them captured on the beach kissing.

Meanwhile, Akim was in the passenger seat sandwiched between two guards. He scoffed inwardly, do they think he would do something stupid like fleeing out of a moving car.

He wasn't suicidal. Even if he was, being crushed by a car wasn't exactly the best way to die. Moreover, why would he die when he now had a girlfriend. A smile crossed his lips, he couldn't wait to start the relationship with her. But that would be after he survived tonight.

Even after he stepped on palace soil, the guards didn't give him breathing space and held him captive until they reached the living room where his parents were pacing up and down from worry.

Oh boy, he was in deep shit.

The moment his gaze connected with his father's burning gray eyes, he gulped and wanted to take a step back but the guards were behind him and didn't move at all.

"You ingrate!" Judy roared and strode over to his son with anger in his eyes. Emily, filled with worry, went after him but she couldn't cover his huge steps.

Akim's eyes grew wide when his father suddenly grabbed him by the collar and drew his hand back ready to punch him in the face.

Luckily for him, just a second for his father's fist to reach his face, Emily shouted, "Judy don't!"

And just like that his fist froze mid-air yet Akim could feel his father's other hand clutching his collar tremble - the man was doing the best to rein in his anger. Of course, his mother was the only one who could calm him down in this situation.

"Please," Emily begged him, tears already filling her eyes as she watched her husband and son ready to tear each other apart.

With wild eyes, Judy tightened his fist around his son's collar and said through gritted teeth, "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't beat the living sense into you right now?"

But Akim snorted derisively, "Why? What did I do wrong?"

That statement angered Judy the more and he tightened his grip almost lifting the poor boy off his feet while Emily cautioned him, 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

"Akim!" He was making the situation worse. She barely calmed Judy down.

"Why mother? Why do I have to shut it? What did I do wrong if not to get some air outside? What's so wrong with wandering off on my own?!" Akim was fed up with their rules as well. He just wanted to breathe, what's so wrong with it?

"How could you be so selfish?! All we did was to keep you safe?!" His father growled at him.

"Keep me safe?!" Akim laughed, "This is not keeping me safe, it is called imprisonment. This place, the whole palace is a prison,"

"Is that all you think about?! You could have gotten killed out there, Akim?!"

"And yet It didn't happen!" Akim retorted, "Every day you keep telling me how dangerous it is outside, and yet I saw it all today, there was no monster hiding in the dark. Here I am, father! All safe and sound!"

Suddenly, Judy hitched Akim up by the collar of his clothes before Emily could even interfere, "Dont test me, Akim. Just because you escaped once doesn't mean Fiona isn't watching! Also, stay away from that girl!"
