Even though Noel and Aldo had just had their biggest argument session yet, they still had to choose Noel's engagement ring. All the different ring choices would be brought to the palace, and both Noel and Aldo would choose a ring together. Frankly, Noel didn't find this whole 'choosing a ring' idea too romantic. But it wasn't up to her, it was Greek Royal tradition for the couple to choose a ring together.

They entered the estate at sundown to find a table surrounded by Aldo's family and the jeweler with all sorts of rings.

"This doesn't mean I forgive you." Noel whispered in a hushed voice.

Aldo looked at her. "I wasn't going to apologize."

Aldo's ego was bigger than this entire estate.

Queen Alexia went up to them. "Hello darlings ... how was the match?"

Aldo smirked. "It went lovely. I was the star player of course. I could even hear Noel screaming my name all the way from the pitch —"

Noel bit the inside of her cheek. He was an insufferable rat.

"May I introduce you to Mr Apollis, the fine jeweler who is providing Noel's engagement ring choices." King Phillipos interrupted. Noel shook Mr Apollis' hand, followed by Aldo as well.

"Pleasure to meet you sir." Noel smiled.

"It's actually more of an honor than a pleasure to meeting you, Mr Apollis." injected Aldo.

The pleasure is all my, Your Highness." bowed Mr Apollis.

Noel shot him a deadly glare. Did he have to be so competitive with her at this moment?

The jeweler then led Noel and Aldo back to the selection of rings.

"I have many options for you Princess Noel. A stunning pink 24.78-carat diamond, it'll bring out your stunning smile. Or the 10-karat emerald from Switzerland! Or even —"

"I rather like this one. This will do." Aldo stated, pointing to a unique small aquamarine ring with two dainty pearl surrounding it. It glistened in the entrance's lighting, showing off its magical sparkle. It was simple and elegant.

Mr Apollis grinned. "Ah the aquamarine from the Caribbean! It is 5 karat —"

"It's my choice, you cunt." Noel muttered under her breath, loud enough for Aldo to hear. Aldo, eyes widened at Noel's use of words, gulped.

"Why do you take a liking to this ring my son?" Queen Alexia asked.

Aldo looked up at his mother, holding the ring up in the light. "I like the way it sparkles in the light. It's an icy blue ... like Noel's eyes. It'll bring them out after all. This ring ... it's cold yet beautiful, like someone I know to be frank."

Princess Noel felt warm for a minute. Was he describing her? For a moment, the girl had actually believed Aldo enjoyed her compact. But she had snapped back to reality, remembering his choice of words was only an act to impress his dear mother. Charming her and gaslighting her to believe Aldo was falling in love with Noel.

Queen Alexia and Mr Apollis awed at Prince Aldo's lovely words. Noel plastered a untruthful smile on her lips, feeling annoyed with Aldo.

"Will this ring do Noel?" asked Queen Alexia to the princess.

Noel nodded. "Yes ... it's perfect."

Aldo smiled and looked to his mother. "Mama, while er ... you discuss the details with Mr Apollis. Noel and I need to discuss a ... private matter. Husband and wife matters to be frank."

Noel scrunched her eyebrows together, not knowing what the hell he was talking about.

Queen Alexia nodded, telling them they could go into the family room.

Aldo, grabbed Noel"s wrist without a warning, lead her into the family room. Closing the door.

"Will you stop acting like that in front of my mother!" Aldo snapped, his tall lanky figure towering over her.

"Acting like what?" blinked Noel innocently.

"Acting like you hate me. You think I want to be kind to you? I'm just trying to please my parents and the rest of the country!" scolded Aldo. "So if you don't start acting somewhat affectionate to me, I'll make sure you do."

Noel looked out into the window nearby. "I'm not going to kiss you if that's what you are wanting."

"I don't want your filthy lips on me. I want you to act like we are happy with each other around other people, especially my family." said Aldo.

"Fine," Noel sighed, "But I haven't forgiven you dickhead."

Noel started to walk out of the room. But Aldo interrupted.

"What do I have to do for you to not be so ... angry with me?"

Noel turned and looked at him. Her icy blue eyes giving his chills. They had such an effect on him at times. Her eyes looked revengeful, like she wasn't going to let him get away with it. Frankly, it was hot.

"Beg."

"Pardon?"

"I said," Noel stepping closer to him facing him directly, "Beg. Get on your knees and beg."

"I'm not getting on my knees for you of all people." scoffed Aldo.

"Alright then."

"Wait," Aldo stopped her in her tracks.

Aldo, rolling his eyes, lowered his right knee as if he were proposing, then his left. Making his truly on his knees, he looked up at into Noel's ocean eyes.

"Noel, I'm truly ... regretful of my actions. I'm sorry I really am. I don't want you to be ... angry with me anymore Frenchie." Aldo stated, it almost sounded as if he were truly apologetic.

"And why are you sorry?" Noel smirked, feeling victorious that she had made Greece's future king get on his knees. God, she had ruined his ego in seconds.

Aldo sighed. "I'm sorry because ... it was cruel of me to assume you were just some spoilt brat. And I've seem to realize that you are not. You are somewhat ... of a strong woman. A good woman to be ... completely honest." Aldo had said the last two sentences with a sting in his tone, as if it had really hurt him to say it.

"Oh well ... I forgive you. Now get up." Noel smirked again.

Aldo stood up, brushing off fluff from his knees. "I think you have really bruised my ego."

"I'm glad, That was the point." Noel laughed as the two started walking up the marble staircase.

"I didn't think I was going to be getting on my knees, I thought it would be the other way around." chuckled Aldo.

Noel looked up at him. "As if I would ever ..."

"Ever what?"

Aldo had now stopped again in the middle of the staircase, having a soft hold on Noel's forearm.

"I thought you wouldn't ever touch me." Noel snapped, referring to him holding her arm.

Aldo eye's seemed to darkened somewhat, "Don't change the topic. Finish your sentence, France."

Noel looked away at a painting, wanting to walk off from this conservation.

Aldo scoffed, "You act like a cocky little shit when you around me don't you Noel? But whenever Dimitri or Mama comes around your little Miss Innocent. It's frankly ... interesting to watch."

Noel's heart started beating faster. Her stomach was doing flips, and not in the way it would during her school days. These stomach turns ... they felt ... arousal almost.

"I need to go ask Helena something I'll see you around —"

"You were going to say you would never suck my dick weren't you?" Aldo whispered, pulling her closer. "Correct?"

Noel gulped. "I wouldn't do such a thing even for all the diamonds in the world."

"I bet you would do it for free. In fact, I bet you would even ride my dick for the entire night."

Noel's cheek flushed a fuchsia color. "I would not."

"I bet those little boys from your school are nothing compared to me. I bet it took them hours to find your clit."

Noel scoffed. "Your ego is bursting out of your head, Aldo. They were much better than you could ever dream of being."

Aldo smirked. "Your a horrid liar. You're so lucky you get on my last nerve and such a know it all, otherwise I would've had you bent over my office desk already."

"Your lucky to think that I'd ever bend over for you." Noel replied rudely.

Aldo smirked, and whispered one last thing to her.

"We'll see by the end of the summer, that little French pussy of yours will be flowing oceans for me. In fact, it probably already is."

Aldo walked into his bedroom without a shrug, hands in his pockets.

Noel stood there, confusing or not he did in fact went to kill her or rearrange her organs.

He actually thought I wasn't a virgin,

A little white lie never hurt anyone anyways.

But Aldo was right about thing.

He did indeed already have her wet as fuck. Noel would never admit that in a million years though.
