A Prince's Love

In the lobby, Nizam stopped. He almost forgot. He picked up his cell phone and called Cynthia. "I'm waiting now in the lobby," he said as he then looked for a seat. Nizam sat thinking about Alycia. He seemed to have heard that name called someone. Nizam's mouth felt bad. He looked at Arani. "Give me a cigarette!!" he said. Arani immediately looked for hotel employees and asked for low-nicotine cigarettes. Before giving him his cigarette, he idly asked "Hasn't Your Highness stopped smoking?"

Nizam takes the cigarette from Arani's hand. "I stopped because of Alena. Now that she is pregnant, it's okay as long as I don't smoke in front of her. I feel dizzy.." Arani didn't ask again. She lit a cigarette in Nizam's mouth. The beautiful lips clamped the cigarette and smoked it and Arani enjoyed the handsome man in front of her freely. As the person who is closest to Nizam, Arani has the luck to enjoy Nizam's good looks more than anyone. Even though she doesn't love Nizam, she is a normal woman who likes the charm of a man.

Nizam sucked it hard. He was still thinking hard who was Alycia? All he remembers is that he danced on his wedding night with Alena. Her eyes are blue with slightly blonde hair. She is very beautiful like a Barbie doll. Although he did not try hard to tease her but the look in his eyes seemed that he really expected Nizam to pay attention to him. Even though Nizam remembers Alycia's face but at the time he doesn't know her name. He knew his name after being told his characteristics by Arani.

And at that time Nizam's eyes instead looked at a girl who was dancing beside him because her face was very similar to someone. He just forgot who he was. If Alycia is very eye catching. His face is typical of Azura but his hair and eyes are like Caucasians. Everyone who saw him could immediately memorize his face because his appearance was very different. It's just that he suddenly remembered that someone had accidentally mentioned his name in front of him. And Nizam was remembering who he was and when.

A moment later he jumped "Prince Rasyid... yes.. I've heard him say her name" Nizam's face immediately beamed with happiness. Arani frowned. "What is it Your Highness?"

"No..I'll tell you later. Throw away the cigarette I don't need it anymore" He gave the cigarette he had just smoked to Arani then Nizam stood up because he saw Cynthia coming towards him. "We're going to the American Embassy now" Nizam said as he stepped out. Cynthia followed Nizam's footsteps like a buffalo matched by her nose. "You get in the car with me and sit in the front. Arani you ride in the car with Ali and Fuad.

Then two luxury cars drove towards the airport. Cynthia looked at Nizam who was sending a message to Azura.

"Nizam..!!" Cynthia called Nizam who was seriously looking at his cellphone screen.

Nizam raised his face. "Yeah...?"

"Has the kingdom accepted me? I'm very scared" Cynthia looked at Nizam with a frightened face.

Nizam looked back at Cynthia. "Are you doubting my ability to negotiate with the royals?" Nizam said while frowning.

"Mom..not like that. I don't fully understand the customs of your kingdom. I'm afraid to face pressure. You know I'm not like Alena who is so innocent and faces all problems like a passing wind that blows. I won't be strong enough to face it, I won't be strong like Elena.

"If you are not strong then fight them before they fight me. Don't be afraid I will be behind you. You are very smart unlike Alena who is so silly and acts like she wants. You must analyze every action you will take and other people will do to you. Thalal has the second most important position after me. He can actually be my opposition if he wants to shift my position. From the start I would have drawn him to be one of my officials so that I don't stumble by him later."

"As far as I know he doesn't like politics," Cynthia said.

"True..but he is a very kind person, a little fragile and easily influenced by others. He could be someone else's puppet against me. Seeing him want you so badly made me think differently. If you have you by his side, I'll make him prime minister. That's good. anyway, you should be prime minister. But you are not our people, have different beliefs with us and a woman."

Cynthia stared at Nizam dumbfounded. With a flat face Nizam said again. "You can control your husband someday to help me, with your intelligence you will become prime minister de facto and your husband will be Prime Minister on paper."

"Nizam...You are really very mean. You made your own brother a puppet" Cynthia felt her blood boil violently.

"It's better to be my puppet than to be someone else's puppet who will end up losing his life at my hands. He is my closest brother after Prince Husen. Actually he is very smart and cunning too but he has no ambition. His intelligence will only appear if he is pressed.

Like he's desperate to get to you. He just brought out all his intelligence. Until he did something ridiculous." Nizam suddenly fell silent, then smirked when he felt speechless and Cynthia immediately realized Nizam's words.

He gripped the back of his car seat tightly. His face was pale, his eyes were glaring. Nizam swallowed his saliva as he loosened his tie which felt like it was starting to suffocate him. He smiled stiffly trying to melt Cynthia's heart. But clearly, Cynthia is not Alena who easily melts with a sweet smile let alone a stiff smile that is not pleasing to the eye. He was like a wounded beast.

"Tell me, Was yesterday's incident a trap for Prince Thalal??"

"Eh..mmm..and-so-he...he..he.." Nizam laughed a little. He bit his own lip. Hoping that the car that was already driving back to the hotel again because Cynthia canceled everything
