Alanis carried her daughter to her room. She's faking asleep after a long talk with her brothers of what happened. She's probably traumatized but he was there to protect her.

"I want mommy.

" She mumbled as he gently put her down on her four-poster princess-like bed.

"Mommy is going to take a shower. I'll stay with you for a while.

" He sat down beside her, and she sat up.

"Daddy,

"

"Yeah?

"

"Can you help me remove my pins?

" She asked.

"Okay. Let's go to your dresser.

"

Alanis stood and she stood as and held her arms up and he carried her to her dresser, and she sat down. He took the round chair and sat beside her and helped her removed her pins.

"Daddy, I don't want to play Princess anymore.

" She said as she stared at herself in the mirror.

"Why?

"

"I want to be like mommy. I want to fight bad guys so I could protect you and so mommy won't go there and fight those bad guys.

" She said.

"I am done playing princess.

"

Alanis creased his brows.

"Princess, you don't have to do that. You are just six and you are our little princess. You don't need to give up your childhood to train.

"

"But mommy trained at the age of seven or nine?

" She looked up at him.

Moira is standing at the door as she listened to Zavannah and Alanis.

"Your mommy is my Queen. She could do anything she wanted. Didn't you know that your mommy doesn't even have time to play because she's the second heiress and she should keep on studying and training? She doesn't even have time to have friends because of that. Your mommy doesn't want you to go there and fight bad guys.

"

"Why mommy didn't have time to play? Were her parents didn't want her to play?

"

"It's not like that. Your mommy just needed to focus on that thing and what mommy wants you is to live your life and play all you wanted.

" He put her pins on her jewelry box that he bought from London for his little Princess.

"So, don't give up your Princess-like life because some other girls out there don't have time to play or study as you did. They can't even have a Shopping Appointment because they don't have money. So, while you have it, you should enjoy it. Daddy and Mommy are always here to give everything to you.

"

He kissed her head.

"Little Princess, you need to understand that there are more of if coming. There will be more people who would kidnap you because you are beautiful and adorable. But you also need to know what to do if such a thing happened.

"

Moira approached them and she hugged Alanis from behind and kissed his cheek.

"Mommy!

" Zavannah squealed.

"What are you guys talking about?

" She asked as she gave her daughter lots of kisses.

"Let's hurry up, dinner is ready, and your brothers wanted to play with you.

"

****

It's Timothy's first time to be in their house. Yup. Exclusive house and it's wide and there are houses at the back. Zendaya said that it's for the security and the maids and butlers. Then the main house is only for them.

They entered the living room as their bags were taken by the butler and Wynter, the adorable little version of Zendaya run to them and hugged Zendaya. She's close to her more than the triplets. Zendaya hugged her back and kissed her top head.

"Hi, Tim!

" Wynter smiled at him and Logan and Luke mess her hair which she frowned at.

"Dinner's ready,

" Zach said wearing an apron.

"Please also ready one of the guest rooms for Timothy.

"

"Dad!

" Zendaya frowned at her.

"He's sleeping in my room.

"

The triplets shook their head and dragged Wynter with them as they went to the dining hall.

"No. Not in my house.

" Zachary said strictly.

Timothy only grinned at her and patted her head.

"Stop frowning.

" He told her. But she couldn't help but frown even more.

"Hurry up!

" Zachary said and they went to the dining hall.

***

Zendaya hated it that her father had to distance her from Timothy. But she doesn't want to be away from Timothy. Days from being away from him kills her after she took a bath and put her pair of PJs and her cardigan. She went out of her room casually and took her phone with her.

She went downstairs and found her father and mother cuddling in the living room. She ignored them.

"Where are you going?

" Zachary asked.

"I am going to my fiancée.

" She said bluntly.

"Did he even propose to you?

"

She stopped and turned to her father.

"Dad, is asking a girl to marry him is a proposal even without a ring?

"

"Yeah.

" He answered with a frown.

"Well, Timothy asked me to marry him and I said yes. So technically we will get married.

"

"Not until you fulfill your task,

" Andromeda told.

"Yes,

" Zendaya said.

"Then, you should limit yourself to Timothy and focus on your responsibility.

"

Zendaya stopped for a while. Her mother is right. She's too young. She's eighteen and she needed to study and do the heiress's responsibility. She went to Timothy's room and it wasn't bad at all. She never to a guest room outside the main house but it's comfortable with king-size bed and fridge, bathroom and it's also close to the pool.

"Timmy!

" She called out and put her phone beside his phone and she slumped her body to the bed.

The show is still running, and she stared at the ceiling. Suddenly his phone started ringing. She sat up and reached it.

"Emma?

" She mumbled. She stared at his phone for a while and checked the number. It was an American number, not a French one. Did he already have a mistress?

Timothy came out from the bathroom and he stopped and looked at the phone that she's holding, and she glared at him.

"Who is this Emma? Is this the girl from your childhood?

"

"Emma?

" he asked as he approached her and checked the phone.

"It's the Emma that will be one of the investors in the café.

"

"Not the girl from your childhood?

"

"No.

" He shook his head. She gave it to him. He answered it.

"Yes, Emma?

" He turned back from Zendaya and murmur on the phone.

Timothy didn't have someone else and the girl had the same name as Emma.

"Okay. We'll meet with Christian this Monday at the café, so you'll see it. Thank you.

" He hung up.

He faced Zendaya and put his phone beside her phone.

"Tell me about her.

" She told.

"We already run a background check to her.

" He took his phone and gave it to her.

"She's just an investor.

"

She read the woman's details and her face. She's a beautiful and a model like and at the same age as Timothy. Maybe she's taller than her and had that beautiful strawberry blonde hair. She gave his phone back to her.

"Why are you jealous?

" Timothy grinned at her.

"It just happened that I saw your phone with the name of a woman on it.

"

He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her temple.

"I'll dress up. Let's have a walk in your garden.

"

"We need to make love.

"

"No. Not in your parent's house.

Zendaya is not in the mood anymore.

"I'm leaving.

" She stood. He held her hand.

"Babe, no good night kiss?

" He asked.

She gritted at him, pulled her hand, and hit his chest.

"Kiss yourself.

"

"Ow.

"

She walked to the door, but he was pulled by Timothy and put her back to bed.

"Why are you angry?

" He asked. He sat down and hold her hand.

"Is it because we can't have sex?

"

"Yes, and because a girl is calling you at this hour. Did you also let someone in your penthouse?

"

"No.

" He shook his head.

"Everything in there are your memories.

"

"So, you mean that you wouldn't let anyone there because you are going to take them to the hotel or maybe to their apartment.

"

Timothy laughed and he pinched her nose.

"Zen-Zen, I have no time to take anyone to a hotel or motel or slept with anyone besides you. I am a busy man to make money for my future wife.

" He bent down and kissed her lips.

"Let's do it quick. But we have to use a condom. I can't get pregnant until I fulfill my duty as an heiress.

"

"Okay.

" He nodded.

"Let's not do it. We'll just get some fresh air and talk about exhausting days from being apart from each other.

"

She agreed to it and she waited for him until he put his PJs and shirt. They left their phone in the room and walked in the wide garden. The dogs are barking and running around them. Timothy patted one of it and then it kept running.

"They are pups.

"

"Yup. Our old dogs are buried at the backyard and mom planted a tree to it.

"

Timothy stood and kissed her forehead.

"Zen, I just want to say that I love you.

"

"Are you sure about that?

" She smirked.

"Yes.

" He kissed her lips.

"I just love you. And I need to work hard for years and once that our café grows, I'll give you a grand wedding.

"

"I don't want a grand wedding, Tim. I just want you.

"
