Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 18

#Chapter 18 You stay here

William didn’t say a word or move an inch. Doris raised her gaze to find him staring at her quietly. Goosebumps lined her skin as the moment stretched, she nervously clenched the cake box in her hand but felt too afraid to move. She hadn’t done anything wrong, only helped someone clean up—that was all.

After what felt like hours, he snorted. “You seem to be quite popular with men, aren’t you?”

Doris was too stunned to respond for a beat, by the time she found her words again—he was already gone. It wasn’t like anything she said would’ve mattered to him, he didn’t care anyway. Doris had the feeling that she would never be good enough in his eyes, so why would he care to begin with?

After dinner, Doris laid out Melody’s nightgown and began to prepare her for bed. As she untied her hair bun, Prince William’s footman knocked on the door.

“Evening, Lady Melody.” He bowed when Doris opened the door wider for him.

“What is it?” Melody asked, running her fingers through her long blonde curls.

“Prince William has requested you accompany him tonight.” He clasped his hands behind his back. “In his bedroom.”

Melody beamed and rushed forward to tip the man. It’d been days since she’d spent the night with him. Sometimes he came to have dinner with her, but never stayed. Doris could tell it was starting to weigh on her emotions again, but now it seemed he wanted her to be in his bed tonight.

“My lady, I don’t mean to rush you but Prince William did ask to see you as soon as possible.”

“Of course! One moment please,” She closed the door and turned to glare at Doris. “What are you just standing there for! Come help me,”
