Edward pov .
When she finally confessed her feels for me I was very happy I felt I have achieved something priceless ,I pulled her into my hands for hug ,I was so happy ,I drew her back and held her face .
" I love you too val, I love you more than anything else in this world , Infact I can give my life for you if that will make you happy "
I was about to place a kiss on her lips , But we got interrupted by a knock on the door of the carriage .
" Your majesty it's time for us to go in "
I was mad at lady Alice for invading my privacy ,I felt like killing this bitch for trying to spoil this moment I have planned for days now .
I came down from the carriage and held lady valerie hand so she wouldn't step on her dress .I could feel lady Alice gaze on her but I wasn't bored at it .
We walked into the Mansion and duke Raymond came to welcome us .
" Welcome to my mansion your majesty am happy to see that you finally came , Please join us "
" After you sir Raymond "
He worked ahead of us leading the way ,To were the high and might men in the society was seated . Lady Alice was about to take the sit next to mine but my next action shocked her .
I grabbed lady valerie hand and pulled her to sit next to me , She stood behind us in shock she couldn't process what just hit her ,I turned to look at lady Valerie and smiled at her then held her hand tightly in mine.
The party started and I must say it was moving very smoothly, I met some of the councilmen there and we spoke about important matters but I couldn't let valerie off my sight each time lady Alice try to get close to me I always look for a way to send her off,I could see she was embarrassed .
I was in the middle of an important conversation when I heard a familiar voice .
" Hello brother we meet again "
" What are you doing here Alexander "
" Come off it brother, i think it's a coincidence we met here don't you think so bro "
" I don't think so "
I turned to look at a lady valerie who was standing next to me .
" Val please excuse us I would love to have a word with this man "
She agreed and walked away without saying a word .
" I think you found yourself a play thing right brother or better still someone whom you love "
" It's none of your business Alexander state the reason why you wanted to see me "
" Come on brother it's been a while ,We sat down and had a drink what do you think "
One of the servants serving at the Raymond's mansion quickly walked up to us with a tray in his hand ,I look at him and then back to Alexander .
" Thank you Alex but I pass "
" Your choice "
" Can I go now "
" Don't be so fast to leave brother or are you intimidated by my presence "
" Why would I be when you are nothing but an ant that I could crush with my bare hands , What do you want "
" You know I was thinking ,I mean out of curiosity what if I take that thing which is so precious to you how will you feel "
I had no expression on my face but in my heart I was in chaos I know what he was talking about .
" I dare you to try "
" You don't have too bro , Because I will but when you least expect it ,so.am giving you the chance to kill me now "
" Go away Alexander stop fighting for what was never yours , Don't make me to come for you because if I do I will make sure your family goes down with you too"
" Why are you scared "
" Why would I be scared of you Alex leave , While you still can "
I tried to walk pass him but he blocked my way .
" Where are you running off to brother we are not done yet with our conversation "
"Alexander I was thinking that with all the years you spend outside the great wall of this city your brain must have been corrected but it seems , You haven't been thought manners still "
" You took what's mine ,I was suppose to be king not you , But you destroyed my dream of sitting on the throne of atlantis you destroyed everything "
" I Never destroyed anything your greed caused you the throne ,Stop trying to accuse others for your misfortune "
" Really then what about killing the woman I loved "
" They committed treason I don't need to tell you the penalty for treason so why talk like a child "
" I know am behaving like a child that's why I will take away that thing you love the most so you could feel my pain too "
" I think this meeting is over Alexander be more respectful the next time we meet each order , Because you never can tell what might be the outcome of the meeting "
I walked out on him and went ahead to look for valerie ,I was still looking for her when someone held my hand and pulled me closer .
" Let go of my hand, Lady Alice "
" Your majesty , We were suppose to announce our wedding today , Why are you avoiding me "
" Announce what wedding "
" Our wedding , You left me and was cleaving to valerie I think it's time we show her where she belongs , Come with me let's make the announcement my friends have been waiting to hear it please your majesty "
'
" We are not getting married lady Alice "
" huh... What do you mean my lord "
" I was not speaking Latin Lady Alice we are not getting married so let go of my hand "
Finally I saw lady valerie standing at the corner of the hall I walked up to her and grabbed her hand .
" Let's get out of here"
" Where are we going too "
" Back to the castle
