Emily's POV
I left the washroom and caught Sebastian just in time before his fist collided with David's face. Sebastian already had him pinned up against the wall by his throat but I moved between them, trying to use myself to calm the murderous tension.
He released David, who started gasping for air and clenching his chest.
Sebastian had snapped.
I never saw that angry side of him and I was to be blame for him acting in that kind of matter.
I hated family drama and the unfriendly atmosphere it can cause but I knew that when David walked in the room, that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions because I had hurt him when I called off everything with him and he was not expecting that to happen.
A loud scene erupted Sebastian, David and King. I ran back to the washroom and cried my eyes out and to hide myself because I was so ashamed.
The door pushed in and a happy looking Princess walked in.
"You know, people with common lives are always full of drama and you've managed to bring it here. Just face it Emily, you don't belong here and you're not fit to be by Sebastian's side." She had a look of satisfaction on her face and in her eyes as she stood in front of me.
"I bet Sebastian wouldn't agree with that," I said and turned to the mirror so I can clean my face off.
"Oh please, you slept with his cousin. Family means everything for a Kingdom and you drove a wedge between them."
"They already had problems before me. I'm partial to blame."
"You're the whole cause of this ruckus happening outside because you pop your legs open for his own cousin. There’s nothing lady-like about you and maybe your mother raised you to be a ....."
"Say another other word about my mother, I dare you." I was already in her face. When it came to my mother's name, I could care less who it was, and her being a Princess didn't make a difference to me.
She made two steps backwards from fear but that mouth of hers wouldn't shut. "Do you really think that Sebastian is going to choose you over me now and get married to you?"
"He would. He loves me!"
"HAHAHAHAHA!" she laughed hysterically.
"And his baby," I finished and all her laughter came to an abrupt stop. Her face drained as it dawned on her that I was here for a reason and she had no weight over me because as she said, family means everything to a Kingdom and there was no where on earth that Sebastian would neglect his child to please her or anyone.
"Yeah, well we'll just see about that," she said with a sour look and left the washroom. I shook my head at her pathetic attempt to intimidate me.
Nice try Princess.

It was three days later when I found Sebastian on his balcony, wrecking of an apple flavoured Vodka. His eyes were gazed at the lawn and surroundings as he sat in complete silence, sipping from the bottle every ten seconds as if programmed to do so. He had given me the cold shoulder and kept an odd distance and to make matters even worse, we had separate rooms because it was the King's orders.
"Seb." I broke the silence. He turned to me with a low sigh and droopy red eyes.
"What?" he asked.
"You need to stop this."
"Stop what, drinking my worries away? The woman my heart desires..slept with..my rival cousin..if it was the other way around," he said and twirled his index finger in the air, "How would you feel?"
He was drunk. His speech and twirling finger said it all.
"Seb, I understand that but you also have to understand that this happened before I even knew you were here. I wish I could go back in time and change everything." I dropped to his sitting level and tried to put my arms around me but he brushed them away.
"Just leave me alone, Emily. It hurts." He took another mouthful of the devilish alcohol before setting it down on a small table beside him. I used that opportunity to snatch it away.
"HEY!" He tried to get it back but I tossed it into the bedroom and it rolled underneath the bed.
"You need to stop because this isn't going to help you. Get some rest Sebastian and I'll talk to you in the morning." He allowed me to take his hand and I guided him into his bedroom and onto his bed.
"It hurts because I care so much about you," he mumbled but I heard what he said clearly. He got underneath the covers and I watched him fall asleep in perfect peace before returning to my own bedroom.

The next morning, I woke up with the morning sickness that usually comes with pregnancies. After five minutes of vomiting and spitting, I made my way to find Sebastian and I was hoping that he wasn't hangover and that his senses were now back intact but as I approached his bedroom, Princess Naomi was making her way out of it.
