Taming A Billionaire-Chapter 667 - Six Hundred And Sixty-seven: Future King And Queen

The third point of view:

"Trust me Akim, you're not as important as you think," Anika said and for some strange reasons, it daunted him. Well, what was he expecting anyway? Moreover, she would seem like a stalker obsessed with him if she indeed tracked him down here.

"You should focus on the lessons," Akim said to her, annoyed for no reason.

The lessons were ongoing but both of them were conversing and the teacher didn't stop them. He was the prince after all and enjoyed certain privileges.

Anika smiled at his attempt to push her away. Unfortunately, she wasn't the one to give up on her goal, and right now, he's her target.

Akim was startled when Anika suddenly leaned closer and sniffed at him, "You smell good," She purred with a long deep inhale.

Being stunned was an understatement, he was dumbfounded. Akim was flustered, his heart beating loud in his chest.

Why was he condoning her acts? He wondered. She was a shameless woman, hitting on him and he was a prince who had the supreme authority to move her away from him - even away from the school, golden student or not. But he just let her be and strangely enough, he kind of liked it.

Akim didn't believe in women chasing after men but he had heard numerous times of his parent's love story and the fact his mother had persistently wooed her father who tried to push her away and in the end, they were happy together.

He couldn't help but wonder if that would be the same case for him. He means, he didn't exactly like Anika, well, sort of... Just shut up! The point is, she's just different from the other girls he's met.

Sure, the other girls always tried to flirt with him and he was so used to their coy glances and sly attempts to draw his attention. But with Anika, it's like she's real with him and she's brave enough to go after him when the others couldn't.

"Stop it, we're in the classroom," He nudged her away and her face lit up with a smile once again. He gulped, she was indeed beautiful.

The teacher who noticed the interaction between the both of them didn't say anything, she simply focused her attention on the other students. It seems the girl had not been mistaken about the friend she had been looking for. But as curious as she was about their relationship, she didn't dare to poke her nose into the prince's affairs nor disturb their date.

Unlike normal people, the royal family takes relationships seriously and this was the first girl their highness, Akim had taken interest in since he was let out in the open. For all she knows, she might be watching an honorable moment of their future king and queen together.

Unlike what the teacher thought, the other females in the class had a different opinion, they saw Anika as their big competition, especially the girl who had been staring intensely at her earlier. She was no other than Charlotte, who was the niece to one of the youngest ministers to his majesty, the king.

Her jealousy seeing Akim and Anika together had turned into full-fledged anger and she decided she hated the girl then and there. Charlotte couldn't wait to get her hands on Anika, she would show her who was the queen bee here. Thankfully, the prince's bodyguards were no longer in the class with them, so she had all the opportunity to show her interest in the prince.

"Really?" Anika said, leaning more closer to the prince, "You're trying to say that you don't mind me doing something to you once we're alone?"

Akim almost choked on his saliva, what the hell was she talking about? His heart was pounding faster than earlier and his cheeks were burning. Anika would be the death of him.

"Can you please be decent," He pleaded in a hushed tone, and surprisingly, she complied. Thank God.

Silence ensued between them for?a while until he heard, "I missed you,"

For a moment there, Akim had thought it was his imagination playing games with him until their gaze connected and they stared at each other for almost a minute without blinking.

Then her lips moved, "Did you miss me as well?" she asked.

He had not heard things, Akim realized. His pulse raced and he swallowed down saliva without even knowing. The way she stared into his eyes, it was almost as if she could see deep inside his soul.

He missed her as well, Akim was sure of it. After that night at the town square, he had searched her up on Facebook hoping that even if he couldn't see her outside, he could at least chat with her online. Unfortunately, he couldn't find her on Facebook with that name. He had even thought she had lied to him about her name and had been angry with her until now. She never lied to him; she just had zero online presence.

Unfortunately, just as Akim was about to answer her, the bell rang, signifying the end of the lesson and a huge noise enveloped the room as everyone stood to get to their next class.

Call him a coward but Akim took that opportunity to escape as well, he had seen the looks of the females and they were about to swallow him whole now his bodyguards aren't around to supervise their moves. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺

Unfortunately, Anika misunderstood that move and thought he was trying to get away from her. But she was not discouraged, if anything this cat and mouse game excited her. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

Anika didn't bother to interact with the other students who looked at her, some friends, and the others with hostility. But she didn't give a damn about them because they weren't worth her attention. She had a mission and couldn't entertain any distraction.

"Hi, I'm…" Charlotte proudly walked up to her and was about to introduce herself but the girl simply stood, picked her backpack, and walked past her.
