Kidnapping the Crown Prince (Boyfriend Series 1)

Prologue

Anyone who thinks fallen leaves are dead has never watched them dancing on a windy day.

A smile form into my lips as I slowly walk to the aisle and look at everyone who's watching and smiling at me. They look delighted as I continue walking, that's when my eyes stop to look at the gorgeous person I've ever met in my life. Jackson, the love of my life. The guy I've loved for three years.

There are so many things that happen between us already, probably the reason why everything feels surreal and unrealistic right now. I must admit that I've imagined myself marrying him but never expected that it will be early and we're both not prepared. He wants to rush things because he's too eager to marry me, that's what he said.

Although I dream of a grand wedding where I'll walk on the aisle full of flowers and I could hear the wave of the water from the ocean, I didn't think twice and agreed to marry him even when the only witness of our wedding are our friends and a judge.

I find it absurd that I will marry him without the approval of our parents, but I am just another foolish person who wants to be with him. Not minding what would my parents react if they found out that their daughter, the heiress of one of the most successful businesses around the whole United Kingdom gets married without their consent.

I never got to meet Jackson's family too because he said he's an orphan. I trusted him, I believed him because that's what I should do. To give him my trust and all my love.

I never questioned him. I just let everything go with the flow.

Although I wished that I could've at least let him meet my parents... I think what matters now is that we're really getting married.

I see on my way to him is Leah who's holding her phone, filming everything that's going to happen. Leah, Jackson’s manager nags me for being slowpoke, and I cannot do anything but to just roll my eyes.

Ever since I saw Jackson on the television, I couldn’t stop thinking about him that I did all of my best just to be his personal assistant, it may sound like I am obsess or something but… I can’t help it.

It feels like he reminds me of something, or that he’s destined for me or whatever! That’s why even when I am the daughter of Mr. Alfredo Johnson, one of the most influential moguls in England, I still choose to work as Jackson’s personal assistant.

My father was very furious when he found out about my plans; I had to do everything just so he could let me do this. He used his connections to put me as Jackson’s assistant and in a snap of fingers. I was standing next to him, as a maid.

When I stopped in front of Jackson, he's watching me with those beautiful brown eyes, making me just fall in love with him once again. Why does he need to be this perfect? With that aquiline nose and luscious red lips. A perfect jawline that makes me want to touch every time.

This is indeed's going to be the best day of my life!

After this, I am going to be his legal wife and we would have our babies and live our life to the fullest. I wouldn't mind if he will keep us as a secret because I understand the field of his work.

"You're so beautiful," he said in a soft tone as I stopped in front of him. I couldn't help but flash a wide smile before looking away, feeling shy. Even if we've been dating for three years already, I still couldn't get enough of him. Maybe because throughout our relationship, he's always busy, always spending his time with work.

I can't believe I am really marrying him!

It feels like a dream.

What if his fans will know that he's getting married already? Will they hate him? Or are they going to attack me? Ugh! I don't know. I just think that what matters is that we love each other. I shouldn't think of negative things right now and just savor the moment of our wedding.

I feel his nervousness as he takes my hand and we go in front of the judge who's going to wed us today.

"Dear family and friends, we have gathered together here at this time to share in the joy and love of Bride and Groom. Each of you has given something of yourself to help them become what they are, and each of you will have opportunities to give more to them to nurture their new relationship. May the love and affection that has brought them to this point continue to be a blessing to them." The judge started to say as Jackson and I started staring at each other.

He's just wearing a white polo and I am wearing a simple white dress that we got on our way here.

"The marriage contract is the most cherished contract in our society because it forms the basis for our social structure. This solemn agreement between Bride and Groom has permanent legal standing, and we are serving as witnesses to it. By means of this ceremony, the Bride and Groom will become united in a special new way. To this moment they bring the fullness of their hearts to share with one another; they bring the dreams which bind them together in spirit; they bring their individuality, which will be preserved, but out of which will emerge their life together." The judge continued and I couldn't take off my eyes on Jackson.

I don't know why I feel like he's nervous or something.

"Kia, will you have this man to be your husband; to live together with him in the covenant of marriage? Will you love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health, and, forsaking all others, be faithful to him as long as you both shall live?" The judge asked me.

With a smile on my lips, feeling delighted to what's happening right now. I said: "I do,"

"Jackson, will you have this woman to be your wife; to live together with her in the covenant of marriage? Will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health, and, forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" He turned to Jackson.

I am all smile as I look at him, waiting for his answer. But my smile fades when he slowly lets go of my hand and there's a sadness on his eyes.

"Jackson..." I called his name but he looked away from me.

I can't explain how painful it is to see him doing this.

Pain is already taking over my body and even if I'm trying to stay positive, thinking that maybe he's just too nervous. I can't lie. I know what's happening, I know what's going to happen.

"I'm sorry, Kia..." that's the only thing he said before he started leaving me in the altar and walked away like... I was nothing.

"Jackson, wait!" I tried to call him but he continued walking as if he didn't hear me. "Jackson, I said wait..." I tried to call him again and was about to follow him.

But I saw the pity look that our friends gave to me.

The day that I wished to be magical became a nightmare of my life.
