Chapter 40 Chapter 40
Edward pov .
When I saw Eric touching valerie ,I was so angry that I kept thinking of one thousand ways to kill him ,I knew this was a plot from the beginning ,I decided to play along to know the outcome .
After the party valerie and I went back home ,I wasn't pissed at her ,I just decided not to speak to her because I had a lot on my mind ,I chose to stay quiet ,We got into the castle and she was trying her best to clear her name I told her to go to bed ,I wasn't in the mood to talk ,I waited patiently for her to leave , Then walked towards the entrance of the castle , Just then hemsworth walked up to me .
" Where is he "
" Your majesty his in the special
dungeon "
" Good well done hemsworth it was easier than I thought "
He didn't say any other word he just bow his head and walked out, I walked towards the Garden then stopped when I got to a corner of the castle ,I placed my hand on the wall and the wall opened and I got in ,I stood in front of his cell with both my hands in my trouser pocket ,I saw Eric lying on the cold floor .I turned to Larry .
" Why is he still unconscious "
" My Lord he passed out due to the hard knock on his head "
Larry got me a chair and I lazily sat on it
" Larry I told you to bring him here alive "
"Yes my Lord, We are sorry if we where hard on him "
" Wake him up "
Larry fetched a bucket of water and poured it on him ,He quickly jumped up on his feet but he fell back down .
" What the hell am I doing here "
" Hello Eric , Welcome to my wonderful home ,I hope you will enjoy your stay here "
Just then the chain holding him started moving up in no time Eric was hanging on the air ,He tried to free himself but couldn't .
" If I were you Eric I would stop struggling because the more you struggling the more the chain becomes tighter "
" I hate you Edward "
" Really , But I love you ,I think you are the only person who still haven't experience or taste my wrath ,I should have killed you long time ago but I didn't because I know my wife will be hurt to know I killed you earlier , But I don't regret it one bit "
Larry walked into the room with a knife in his hand .
". Larry I don't need to tell you what to do make sure that thing in between his legs wouldn't be able to grow again "
With that been said I walked out of the dungeon , I asked valerie to see me ,we went to see Eric at the special dungeon ,I know it wasn't easy for her when we came out she started throwing up, When she was done we walked back into the castle ,I was about to take her to her room when samuel walked up to me .
" Your majesty I have been looking for you "
" Any problem samuel "
" Lady Alice is here to see you "
" What does she want "
" I really can't tell Your majesty , But she came here with her father "
" Tell them am busy "
" Am Afraid your majesty , They said it's important "
I decided to go hear what they had to say ,I was about to leave when I felt someone holding me tightly .
I turned to look at valerie .
" Don't worry I would be back soon "
" Can I come with you "
I was surprised by her questions , When valerie first came into this castle , She hated everything about me but am surprised that she wants to be with me , That made me feel so happy ,I felt like I was on top of the world ,I quickly grabbed her hand I took her to the waiting room with me , When we got there ,I saw Lady Alice and sir Damien waiting patiently with two cup of tea in front of them , When they saw me , They stood up to greet me .
" Your majesty "
" Sir Damien I wasn't expecting you here today tell me what business bought you to my castle "
" Your majesty , It's a proposal "
" A proposal "
I kept thinking what could that be , because the last time I checked I never bought any proposal to him .
" Okay sir Damien let's here it "
"Exactly your majesty it's about my daughter alice "
" What's wrong with her , because from what am seeing here she's very much okay or lady Alice are you ill "
I turned to her direction but her eyes was fixed on valerie who was sitting beside me , When I called her name the second time she quickly drafted out of her thought and looked back at me with a smile on her face .
" My Lord am very well thank you , Why don't you allow my father to finish what he had to say , Trust me you would love "
I turned my head to look at sir Damien .
" What where you saying sir Damien "
" Well that ,I was talking about my daughter , Since you both grew up together ,I was thinking it's high time we move this relationship forward by getting into an alliance with the both family "
" What type of alliance are we talking about here "
" I was thinking of a marriage alliance My Lord "
Ahh I know this people will always have a come back and I was fully prepared for it ,I have tried my best to make things clear between Alice and I but she kept pushing ,now I guess I would have to ideal with this bitch once and for all .
I looked up at Sir Damien who took a sip from his tea , And then looked at his daughter who was blushing nonstop .
" I will think About it sir Damien and get back to you in a week time .
Sir Damien was still not convinced with my response said so he decided to try convincing me again .
" Oh come on my Lord , You have been friend with her since she was little and later you guys became lovers I was thinking by now you would have made your intention known to her but you decided to settle for something lesser,
He turned his gaze towards valerie , i tried as much as I could to control my anger .
" Well I think that lesser thing is going to be your Queen and you will have No order option but to bow before her "
" Ahh My king I mean no offense I was just trying to make a point Lady Alice came from a reputable family, You need a strong woman beside you not a weakling "
" Like I said before I will think about it and get back you or perhaps do you want to force words out of my mouth "
" Oh No.. Your majesty I can never do that please take your time to think about it carefully and choose wisely "
The father and daughter got up and walked out of the room I sat there staring into space just then I heard valerie calling my name .
" Do you want to marry her "
Something hit my mind ,I know valerie has started opening up to me little by little but I wanted to know if what she's feeling towards me could be called love , I wanted her to admit it that she was falling in love with me .
" Yes I am think about marrying her "
" What about me then ,I mean what happens to me "
" You will also be my wife "
" I can never share my man with someone else "
Wait did she just call me her man .
" What did you just say "
She quickly cleared her throat and sat up from the chair .
" Nothing "
" No I heard you say something "
" I said nothing "
" Very well then I wouldn't force you to speak , But I just want you to know that lady Alice will be my wife too "
She burst out in anger .
" No that can never happen ,I swear by zeus that if you try........."
She opened her mouth but closed it again ,I was about to burst into laughter but I held myself she look so cute with the look on her face , She quickly turned and ran out of the room .
Immediately she left my smile dropped and my brain started thinking of a way to punish Sir Damien and his bitch of a daughter .
