When I woke up the next morning ,I couldn't find Edward , Beside me so I got up took my bath, And changed into something more comfortable and lossed .
I stepped out of the room and went into the kitchen , I was so hungry .when the servants noticed my presence they quickly bow their head to greet me .
" Good morning your majesty"
" Good morning to you all , You can continue with your work ,I just want to grab some food quickly and leave "
I picked up an apple and was about to munch on it when lady theresa stopped me .
" Your majesty ,you are not suppose to be here "
" Good morning lady theresa "
" Pardon my manners your majesty , Good morning my lady "
"Am hungry so I wanted to eat something different from the meal they prepared "
" If you needed anything you should have asked your servants or Better still send them to tell me about your choice of food Your majesty , The king will have my head if he finds you here in the kitchen "
" Don't worry yourself lady theresa, Am not going to tell him "
Suddenly I heard Edwards voice, from behind as .
" What are you people not going to tell me "
"Huh .."
I was shocked to see him standing behind lady theresa ,I quickly hide the apple behind my back .
" Nothing what are you doing here "
" I came back into the room ,To take you to the dinning room but you were not there ,So I asked the servants and they said you are in the kitchen , That's why am here "
" Oh ..okay ...you can go now am fine "
" What are you eating "
" Huh ... nothing "
" Show me your hand "
" It's nothing just go , i will join you shortly "
" Val be a good girl and show me your hand "
" No there is nothing to show you ,please just go "
" Don't make me come over "
At this point I had to surrender ,I bought my hand forward and showed him the apple .
" You prefer to have this for breakfast "
" Yes , Am hungry but at the same time I can't eat anything because I know am going to throw up ".
" Okay I agree with you , But at least you shouldn't hid it from me , Am not going to beat you "
" Am sorry "
" You don't have to be sorry my love , Let's go to the dinning room "
He held my hand ,We were about to leave but he stopped in front of lady theresa .
" Tell the servants to bring more apples for my wife at the dinning room "
' Yes my lord "
He took my hand and we left the kitchen when we arrived at the dinning room, Everyone was waiting patiently for us to join them.
Finally breakfast was served , Bethel and my mother ate silently ,lady Tracy and Randy was also at the dinning room , Just then lady Tracy decided to start up a conversation .
" My lord ,I believe the council must have heard about what happened "
" Yes they did , Am sure they will be on their way right now "
" Too bad lady Josephine and Lady Grace had to loss their lives "
" Am not sorry for them , They got what they deserved "
" What about Roosevelt , What did you do with his body "
" I sent it to the council for their experiments "
" Now that Roosevelt is gone ,Think we can now live our lives in peace "
" I Don't think so ,We still have enemies around us , Am just waiting patiently for them to strike , Then I will separate there neck from there head "
" Enemies ...who are you talking about Edward "
" Don't worry with due time you will know "
The room became awkwardly quiet . Bethel on the other hand, Have drank almost five glass of water ,I thought I was the only one who observed it , But I didn't know Edward was watching as well , Suddenly he called out to Bethel .
" Bethel ,is it something I said that suddenly made you tasty , If you need more water you should let the servants know "
" Haha " she laughed awkwardly
" It's nothing my lord am perfectly fine , but just discovered the the food was very spicy "
" Really"
Edward took a full spoon of soup and placed it in his mouth , Everyone attention , diverted to him .
" I think this food is not spicy "
" I think mine is spicy "
" Do we have a different kitchen in this castle , Because I believe this food was brought from the same pot "
" Ah my lord am sorry ,I guess my tongue is playing a trick on me , May be it's my fact "
" No problems "
He turned to lady Tracy and continued talking to her .
' As I was saying lady Tracy ,I wont spare the person even if he or she were to be my family number "
' I know Edward that you have been ruthless from the beginning ,So I don't have anything to say , But you my brother is the best "
" You can say that again "
I raised my head to look at Bethel but I could see that she was restless ,I quickly called her attention .
" Bethel are you okay "
" Yes am fine '
To lighten up the mood and decided to tell everyone about Bethel secret man .
" Edward ,mama, Tracy Bethel is in love with someone "
Immediately I said those words , She almost got chocked on her food she started coughing violently , My mother who was sitting close to her give her a glass of water to drink .
Edward was the first person to congrats her .
" Congratulations Bethel , Tell us who is the luck man"
Edward sounded so sarcastically , When he was congratulating her ,I could tell he was mocking her .
" Actually my lord ,I think it's better it remains a secret "
" Secret , But you know secrets can't be kept for ever "
" When the time comes ,I will let you know "
Suddenly the door burst opened and Samuel walked into the room his cloth was covered with blood . In his hand ,he had a sword , That was dipping in blood "
" Your majesty...the castle is under attack "
