The Crown Prince's Love

Randy~

If someone had told me I'd encounter someone bearing an uncanny resemblance to

John from back home, I would have dismissed it as foolish talk.

Yet, there I was, intensely gazing at a person who mirrored him perfectly.

Was I caught in a dream, or was this a mere figment of my imagination fueled by the belief that John was the one who leaked our audio on the internet?

I couldnt decipher the truth, so I continued to fixate on him, standing alongside my cousin Tyler, whom I hadn't seen in years.

The moment John's doppelgänger touched Desmond and he promptly fainted, a sense of foreboding gripped me, I knew something was amiss.

When Desmond woke up and talked about a dream, I had thought that Hecate had visited us again but I was glad when he mentioned that he was pregnant for me in the dream.

It felt funny and surreal and not what I had not expected that I would hear but it didn't stop me from staring at him in shock because I had not expected that such dreams existed and so, I couldn't say anything else.

"How are you feeling now?" Uncle Marcus asked him.

Desmond sighed and looked at me but I shook my head at him telling him not to tell my uncle anything because I knew that anything he said would be taken to my parent and I didn't want that to happen so it was best if it was kept a secret from them.

"I am fine," Desmond cleared his throat rubbed his forehead, and then faced my uncle. "I just was unable to sleep last night because someone was on my neck and because of that..." he turned his attention to me and smiled brightly.

My uncle laughed and raised his hand in defeat. "I don't want to hear anything about your night, please. So you have met your cousin Tyler right?"

I nodded and looked towards Tyler who was serving food to the customers, his smile broadened as he exchanged words with them and it made me wonder if he was happy to be far away from his family or if he was doing alright.

It had been long since I last saw him and so, because of that I had expected that he would look cruel and unapproachable but he looked like he fit into this part of the world perfectly.noveldrama

"why does your cousin look a lot like John?"Desmond asked and pointed to the boy beside my cousin.

I had seen why he was giving the boy an intense look because he had thought that he was my cousin and also because of his uncanny resemblance to John.

"That is Caspian," my uncle introduced pointing to Caspian. "he is a chef and good at what he does."

My eyes stared at him and I tried to compare him to John. I noticed the difference was the fact that John was leaner and was built with a round face while this one had a straight jawline but the resemblance made me wonder if the two people could have the same face.

"I think that they are done with the customers. Let's do a proper introduction this time now that Desmond is no longer fainting," he said and beckoned to the both of them.

They headed towards me with smiles on their faces and with each step that they took, I feared what my Cousin might think of the family because according to him, the family had not treated him well and I believed that he might harbored hatred for them because if I were in his shoes, I would have done the same thing.

"hello," Caspian greeted and I also noticed that his voice was thicker too unlike John's high voice. "how are you doing now?" he asked Desmond smiling brightly at him.

I frowned as I watched Desmond also return the smile. I clenched my fists when they both shook their hands.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!

"fine," Desmond replied him. "I am alright now. The name is Desmond."

I had expected Desmond to let him go but instead, they held each other exchanging looks for a few seconds until I couldn't take it anymore and I cleared my throat.

"Meet Randy." Desmond finally let go of his hand, a moment before I could rip Caspian's head off. "My friend."

That sentence alone ended everything.

How could he have addressed me as his friend?

I frowned as I looked at me balling my wrist angrily.

I was his friend, only his friend? I looked at Desmond expecting to change the words

that he had said but instead, he continued grinning and that made me boil more.

I bit down my tongue to suppressed the anger that coursed through me.

"Friends huh?" I chuckled and nudged Desmond in the shoulder trying to make a joke

but instead, he maintained a straight face and didn't say anything.

Seriously, I couldn't even understand what was happening and why he was acting like that.

Had I done something wrong?

Was that the reason for his change in attitude?

I questioned myself because I couldn't understand why he had denied me and that

made me hate the Caspian guy more.

"pleasure to meet you, Randy!"

Randy!

He addressed me by my name.

That was the first time my name had sounded uninterested in my ear and it was because it was coming from him.

It irks me to see him calling my name and when he stretched forth his hand for me to take, I frowned at him and only stared at his hand.

How the hell did he expect that I would shake hands with him when he was staring at Desmond as if he was about to devour right on the spot?

It made me groan painfully without letting it out and unable to take it any longer, I grabbed Tyler's hand and walked away without acknowledging his greetings.

It was not pride neither was it because he was looking like John but because he had his eyes on Desmond and I hated how he was staring at him like he was the love of his life.
