“I’m already yours, Charles…” Mac chided with a playful eye roll and a bright smile lighting her features. “This means that I can’t go easy on you. When we train, I mean business. I won’t let you win. Is that good with you, my love?” She ventured to ask, although her tone no sternness.

[dr-scotts]

“And that way, it would be much easier to be around you all the time.” Charles gave her a cheeky smile as he played along. “This means there’s a lot of challenges. I am highly looking forward to my very flexible, very beautiful though the toughest, guardian I know.” A smirk had laid on his lips now, his eyes scanning through the webs of her sea green hues.

Mac smiled into the kiss and took a seat once they were parted. She began to eat and then smiled at Charles, thinking that tonight was already a perfect night and all that they had done was camp. “—I was thinking, how would you like it if I became your Guardian?” 

[dr-scotts]

Charles proceeded with his seat, eating the last of his steak. He had so much to look forward to with all the surprises he had come up. He was too eager to pull all the strings for her, to see her spontaneously. All to look forward just to make her happy. “I’d be happy to accept you as my own, my love.”

“I get that you wanted to come up with the plan, but your plan is stupid. You should have allowed me to do the planning…”

[dr-scotts]

“Fine then. What do you have in mind?”

[stylistmadeline-blog]

“Non, vous ne comprend pas. Je déteste les personnes ici, je dois sortir, bientôt.”

[dr-scotts]

“A bad time to be here. Forgive me for interrupting. Continue with what you are doing.”

[numbinsight]

“I’ve come out hiding”

[dr-scotts]

“I had not realized that. Should I be surprised?”

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

Mac’s heart didn’t fail to thump loudly behind her chest, her lips curved into a smile. Hearing the three words was enough to calm her worries. She closed her eyes, and relaxed in Charles’ embrace. After a time, she whispered, “We should eat. Our food is cold by now.” Although they really should finish their meals, the Guardian found herself frozen in place. She didn’t want to move because this meant losing the warmth of her soulmate’s touch.

[dr-scotts]

He took the moment to feel her in his arms, her warmth radiating all over his chest. Before he could let her go, he gave her a peck on the lips. “Okay.” he breathed out between their space, pulling away gently and opening her seat again. 

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

Mac didn’t want to have to talk to her mother about Charles. If she had her way, she would keep Charles a secret forever. And the sad part of all this was it wasn’t that she was ashamed of her soulmate, it was the fact that he was a king that didn’t sit well with her. Her mother would be all too pleased, and the petty girl within her, wouldn’t allow it. “—I’ll talk to her.” She sighed and stood on her tiptoes to give Charles a gentle kiss. “I love you, Charles.” 

[dr-scotts]

“Good.” His fingers fiddling on her golden locks while as his sky blue orbs stared deeply to her sea greens with a glint of happiness. “It will be better. I am positive about it.” As the kiss she left on his lips, he couldn’t bother to smile. His heart fluttered more, beating rhythmically. “I love you too, Mackenzie.” Strong arms hugged her figure, his fingers found the littlest of her back, bringing her closer as his nose caressed hers.

Mac grew worried by Charles’ words. He wanted to meet her parents, and she wasn’t sure if he should. “—I don’t know if it’s a good idea, Charles. And it’s not because I don’t love you, because I do… I just, I don’t want my mother to accept me because my boyfriend and soulmate is the King of Australia. I want her to love me for me…” 

[dr-scotts]

“I know what your intentions are. That is why I planned it not any sooner. If you want me to prolong, then I shall. Deal with your mother first, then we can ask her for her blessing.” A sincere, honest smile was given off in their embrace. The warmth was simple, but every nerve of his body surge, along with his heart beating loudly into his chest.

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

Mac burrowed her cheek onto her soulmate’s open palm, a gentle smile settling upon her face. “I wish she could see it that way, and I’ve tried to not think about it, but it’s incredibly hard for me to not be hurt when all she does is chides my choices.—I bet she’ll be thrilled to hear that my soulmate is a King.” She rolled her eyes at the thought.

[dr-scotts]

“All will be well, I have a good feeling about it. Eventually, you’ll prove her wrong and she will accept that.” He wiped the tears that streamed down her face. “And I might have planned a trip for the both of us back in your hometown, before I asked for your mother’s blessing.”

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

Mac’s bottom lip jutted and because she couldn’t say no to Charles,—and partly also because she needed the comfort, she went into his arms and allowed him to hold her. “I feel like such a failure.” She mumbled against his chest. “Why can’t I be enough without having to meet her expectation?” 

[dr-scotts]

 “You are not a failure.” His hands caressed her cheek, looking into her eyes as he expelled the words. “You were able to be a guardian, that’s nothing like a failure to me.” Truthfully, he said. “You are enough. You really are, as a person. She only has the option of accepting who you really are today, and I believe that she will see fit to it.”

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

“—Yeah, I hope you’re right.” Mac replied with a watery smile, her eyes glimmering with unshed tears. This was the one topic she had made sure to steer clear of because talking about it always made her sad, and she didn’t want to be sad anymore. “I’m being a baby…” She sniffled. “I’m sorry. Let’s just eat.” 

[dr-scotts]

 Seeing those beautiful sea green eyes shed tears, made him frowned at himself. And so, he stood himself up to open his arms for an embrace. “Come ‘ere.” gesturing her. “You aren’t. It is okay to cry. Everything will be fine, I promise you that.” Giving her a light forehead kiss.

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

The banter between them died down, her features contorted as sadness consumed her heart. She’d never felt like she was good enough with her mother, even when she tried her best to be a good daughter. Mac would always be a disappointment. Her green hues clashed with her soulmate’s blues, and with a sadness laced voice, she spoke, “Do you really think so? I’ve tried…and I failed every time.—I don’t know what else to do.” 

[dr-scotts]

“She loves you, I’m sure. She may not have her full support because of the choices that you made, but you are still your mum’s daughter.” He uttered in a comforting voice. Meanwhile, in his own thoughts, ideas began spread widely. Maybe their marriage might help save the relationship of her and her mother. He would do anything for love.

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

“I did no such thing.” Mac huffed in defense. Although he was right on his assumption, she wasn’t going to allow him the satisfaction. He’d gloat a little too much, and as it was, his head was already the size of a watermelon. The Guardian chuckled to herself, but the laughter died quickly. “—No, we don’t. My mom and I are two different people. She wanted me to get married and be a lady, but I chose to become a Guardian instead. I was always a huge disappointment to her.” 

[dr-scotts]

“Yes, even though how cheeky I sounded, but you can’t deny the truth. You’re a great liar, that I can tell you.” His eyes roam deeper within the webs of her dark green eyes, finding the fault. Her laughter ended, and he listened intently, “I’m sure it’s never too late to make it up with her. At some point, I know you miss her, and that she misses you too. She only wanted what’s best for you.”

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

“Oh really. Why would I be embarrassed?” The Guardian challenged, her own brows raising in defiance. “—That’s cute. At least one of us has a great relationship with their mother…” She muttered the latter part under her breath.

[dr-scotts]

“Simply because the things I say made you tinted red, and that made you embarrassed even to admit it solely that you will be my Queen.” He leaned into his chair, his eyes looking into hers to search for the truth. Soon as she responded, he saw the hint of sadness from the tone of her voice, and he wondered and didn’t bother to ask. “And you? I suppose you and your mother must have a great connection?”

[guardianmackenzie-blog]

“I’ve been hungry for a while now.” She lied. There was no way she was going admit that she was embarrassed. “—Who taught you how to cook? I’ve never met a royal who could cook before.” 

[dr-scotts]

“Indeed, but I can tell you are embarrassed as well.” He raised an eyebrow, the hint was obvious. “My mother. She loved cooking. The curious child I was, I tried and loved it as well.”
