My Evil Boy Toy

Chapter 232 – I Am The Crown Princess

They were startled by a knock on the door. Caden had a dark expression when he turned around to look who it was, only to be surprised to see who distracted us.

"Mom!" He called.

My eyes widened and suddenly felt embarrassed when I saw Aunt Peggy standing by the door. She was looking at us with a serious face and she was still as beautiful as ever. 

"Am I disturbing you?" Peggy asked.

She was asking both of us but I felt like she was staring at me. Honestly, I was closer to Uncle Jayden than her. Maybe because her husband has been there since Lucas and I were born.

Growing up, Uncle Jayden always played with me and Lucas. Father said he missed his fiance and son so he would always spend time with us. When Aunt Peggy left him and when she came back, she already had Caden.

I never had a chance to get closer to her. A lot had happened when she returned. They went back to Flousia just weeks after their arrival at our home.

I only got a chance to play with her when she lost her daughter. But after my engagement with her son, I felt like she distanced herself to me.

"I-I'm sorry, Aunt Peggy. I-I was just-"

"Don't apologize!" Caden exclaimed.

Aunt Peggy didn't say a word and started walking towards Caden. I thought she was going to get mad because Caden yelled. But I was surprised when she suddenly hugged him.

"I missed you, son." I heard her whisper.

Then Caden wrapped his arms around her mother's waist.

"I missed you, too, mom. How's dad?" Caden askes also in a whisper.

"He's outside. Go. I'll take care of Alira."

I suddenly felt nervous when she said those words. I wanted to stop Caden when he went out of the walk in closet.

I couldn't look at Aunt Peggy so I bowed my head. Then I was surprised when she hugged me while taking deep breaths.

"I'm sorry, Alira. Everything was my fault. Please know that Caden never abandoned you." She whispered.

She tilted my head, and smiled at me.

"Don't ever look down. You are the crown princess of Flousia and you are a Wilson, be proud." She said.

I bit my lips to stop myself from crying, but still I couldn't stop the tears from falling.

"Oh, sweetie! I'm sorry. I was too harsh on you and Caden."

"Why couldn't anyone tell me what really happened? For years, I thought Caden abandoned me. I was lonely." I cried while she hugged me tightly.

Aunt Peggy sighed.

"Caden was kidnapped two years ago. Someone found out that he was the heir to the throne. He was rescued after three months, but he was already in bad shape. He was tortured and beaten, and almost lost his legs. I thought we're going to lose him. I asked everyone to keep it a secret from you, and Caden didn't want you to see him like that. He was bedridden, he couldn't walk. He felt useless. Did you know how he was able to stand up again? It was because of you. Lucas sent us a photo of you and gave it to Caden. That's when he decided to have therapy and I was really happy that everything went well."

I was shocked. No one told me what happened. But I remember that two years ago, Lucas started acting strange. He would always come in my bedroom and would hug me, then leave. Mom and dad would ask me out almost everyday and would buy everything I want.

"Alira, listen to me. After this, your life will change. You will be in danger. Caden knew that announcing this in public was too risky. You knew we never found my foster father, right? He's still out there, waiting for a chance. He might go after you. Are you willing to risk your life? If not, I am giving you a chance to back out."

That was even more shocking, I know she was worried about me. Her foster father was a dangerous man. Even with my father's power combined with the royal family of Flousia, Benjamin Miller still escaped from their clutches.

"Can we talk about this outside? I want to know Caden's opinion." I answered.

She nodded. Then we went outside the walk-in closet.

"Uncle Jayden!" I rushed into him, hugging him tight.

He really looked like Caden. If you see them together, they just look like siblings.

"Alira. You're so pretty!" He said, smiling at me.

Then I turned to Caden who was sitting on the couch. I couldn't imagine what he went through from the hands of his abductors.

I pouted and started crying again. Next thing I knew I was already sitting on his lap, my arms wrapped around his neck.

"Hey what is it?" He asked.

"I told her already and asked her if she wanted to back out." Aunt Peggy answered.

"What the hell mom?" Caden yelled.

"Language, Caden!" She yelled back.

Caden didn't say a word but I felt that he was angry. I hugged him tighter and tried my best to stop crying.

"I-I won't back out!" I answered in a firm tone.

I stood up then faced Aunt Peggy. I know she was worried and was testing me.

"Are you sure about this?" She asked, staring directly into my eyes.

I didn't blink and stared back at her.

"You asked me when we were six if I wanted to be his fiance, and my answer was yes. Now that I am eighteen, do you think I would back down? I waited for a long time to be with him because you promised me that once we turned eighteen, we can be together. I knew all the risks and I am not an ordinary girl, you said so yourself.. I am the crown princess of Flousia and I am the daughter of Luke Wilson and Alora Smith, I would never let anyone take that position away from me."
