Chapter 98
The king chuckled. "Well, it is what you have to do for you both to be happy. He won't have killed anyone if not for you, and he wouldn't have left home. He did that because he wanted to be with you, and now, he has lost the one thing important to him as the crown prince. He had commited a crime."
""And I lost my legs. I made sure that I protected Randy until the last time. What do you expect from me, king? Randy is the one for me, and if it was not for you, then we would have been here at home, and who knows if this wouldn't have happened!"
The king drew closer to me and then sat down beside me on the bed. "If you are going to blame me, then you can go ahead. I won't stop you,' he muttered and then heaved a deep sigh. "This is the only way for you to be fine. There is no other way, and as much as you hate it, there is no other way for this to end."
I lowered my head and bit my lower lip, trying so hard not to shout at the king.
If I did, I knew that my head would probably roll on the ground because I had gone against the king, but at the same time, I hated how he acted as if everything was fine.
"Do you think that Randy will be happy about this? He would never let me be, and I can't do this to him. I love him so much."
"Find a way, Desmond. Randy is the crown prince, and he can't continue to act like an idiot!"
"What if he doesn't want to be the crown prince? What if he doesn't want that kind of life?"
The king laughed. "The Randy I know had always wished to be the crown prince until you came along and ruined everything."
"It's your fault for not knowing that your son doesn't like women," I retorted, wondering why I had gotten the courage to reply to the king like that.
"I see that you are running your mouth, and I will let you do that only for today because you and Randy used to be lovers. After today, I will punish you according to tradition."
I heaved a deep sigh and lowered my head.
"I apologize, Your Highness, but you have always been against my relationship with the prince, and you never supported us!"
"I am doing my best as a father so that he can be accepted!" he shouted. "I am trying to make sure nothing bad happens between you both! Don't you understand what is happening? They would never accept a king like him."

I scoffed. "Permit me to say this, Your Highness, but how do you expect that the crown prince would be accepted when you, as his father, have not accepted him? How could you do that to your son?"
"If you heard me the first time, you will hear how I said that I am trying to protect my son. I am trying to make sure that he doesn't go astray!"
"Our love doesn't mean that he would go astray. We love each other," I argued, hoping that he could see what I was trying to let him understand. "Our love is never astray, and I know that you are probably wondering if I have gone crazy, but that is the truth!" I yelled. "Randy is my life!"noveldrama
The king heaved a deep sigh and rubbed his forehead as if he was tired of hearing me say that over and over again. He grabbed my hand and rubbed it gently.
"I treat you like my son because I saw the relationship between you and Randy, and I noticed how strong it was. But now, this is not about your love anymore. The elders will never accept both of you and also, you both will always be the target of Hecate. I am going to resolve that and make sure that Hecate doesn't come close to any of you ever again. I am going to make sure that i sort everything out, and in doing so, I will recover everything that has been lost, and..."
"Your Highness," I shouted and lowered my head yet again. "This isn't supposed to end this way! I can't bring myself to tell Randy that I don't remember him!"

The king tapped me on the shoulder.
"Stop acting like a child and be a man. Everything I am doing is to make sure that both of you don't go astray. I know you might not like me for doing that, but I am going to make sure I do everything to make everything right! You should know better," he told me, then stood up from the bed and turned to leave. "Randy will soon wake up, and the first person he would ask for is you, so get prepared and don't mess this up," he warned as he walked out of the room.
As he walked out, I lowered my head and sniffled as tears streamed down my face. I started to think about why Randy and I didn't get our happy ending. Was the world against us to the extent that we would never, for once, get a happy ending?! I couldn't even figure it out, and the only thing I could do was cry over and over again.
"It's okay, son," my mother rubbed my shoulders. "You don't have to worry about anything anymore. We can leave this place and go somewhere far away, where you wouldn't have to worry about anything any longer."
I shook my head in response. "I don't want to be separated from him. I love him so much that it hurts to see him suffering just as much as I am. I can't do without him, and I am sorry if you are expecting that I would jump at your offer to leave for else where, but I want to be around him. I want to attend school again."
"Son," my father called. "Are you sure that you can live this type of life?" he asked, and I nodded in response. "What if you are unable to keep the act?" he asked, but I shook my head in response and then smiled at him.
"I will make sure that I continue to pretend not to remember him."
That was a lie. I knew that no matter how I pretended in front of Randy, he was going
to see through my lies. Even if I acted as if everything was alright, he was always going
to find out about what I was hiding, but I had made up my mind, and that was to sign the deal with Hecate. By doing so, we could have our happy ending, and I wouldn't have to worry about anything else.
