Chapter 88: Meeting the main characters
A low magnetic voice rang as a round of footsteps approached the desk area. It wasn’t exactly as it happened in the main novel, where Cedric and Abrielle met the king the next morning, but the events were still similar.
Ignoring the blue screen before her, Abrielle turned behind her; her breath was stolen immediately, "Lucian," she mumbled and felt Cedric’s hold on her tighten.
Before them stood a young man with a teasing smile, "Father, I have returned," the newcomer said, showing obvious familiarity with the king, unlike Cedric, who addressed the king as your majesty.
The newcomer was everything a fantasy romance male lead could be described as: handsome, graceful, gorgeous, etc, but these qualities did not leave Abrielle spellbound and unable to look away. Cedric’s jaw clenched, and then his sharp gold eyes met the similar eyes of the newcomer.
Lucian Von Drakkar, the male lead of the story, ends up with the female lead. What made him so striking was his obvious resemblance to Hazel’s crush back on earth, Lucian, the boy who invited her on a date before she died.
Hazel had envisioned the male lead to be exactly like her crush with the only difference being his eyes that were not green. Lucian had strawberry blonde hair and gold hair then this magnetic present around him that draws people in different from Cedric’s aloof presence.
He was so gorgeous. Abrielle’s heart skipped a beat. Seeing her crush look alike, she glanced away to control her reaction. She should not be showing any interest in Lucian.
Despite looking dignified, Lucian’s temper is even shorter than Cedric’s when any girl aside from the female lead approaches him because he feels they have evil intentions, especially her known to be Cedric’s obsessed wife. "I am glad you returned successfully from your war." Kaiden praised and Abrielle felt a shift in Cedric’s mood.
She wondered if he had ever been welcomed warmly from his battles, the unloved Prince who grew up on the battle fronts.
