Valerie pov ...
Finally it was morning , The palace was a bit silent then usual , The physician came over to treat Edwards wounds ,why I was busy getting ready for the execution .
When George left the room ,I walked up to Edward and held his hand .
" How are you feeling today '
" Am fine my love ,Am still wondering why you don't want me to witness the execution "
" I need you to rest for a while , Don't worry I will handle everything ,I promise "
" I trust you and I believe you will do well in my absence "
" Thank you for trusting me "
I placed a kiss on his forehead and walked out of the room ,I was walking through the hallway when. suddenly my mother stopped me .
" Valerie my child "
" Mother what are you doing here , You are not suppose be outside , Please go inside your room and rest , Don't worry everything will be fine "
She held my hand and tears kept flowing from her eyes .
" Please my child promise me that you will not let them throw Bethel body away , Promise me that you will bring her back to me to be buried please "
" If that's what you want ,I will do it mother "
" Thank you my child that you ,I may not be your biological mother but am pride to say you grew up well my child thank you so much "
" It's okay mother go to your room"
" Please valerie one last thing before , Bethel is executed can you let me see her just this once "
" Ah mother am sorry you are asking for the impossible "
" Please my daughter , At least let me see her just this once ,I wouldn't be seeing her alive in few hours time please don't take this opportunity away from me "
"Okay no problems "
We walked out of the castle together , When we finally arrived at the dungeon , Samuel and hemsworth was already there waiting for me .
" Just the people I want to see"
When they noticed my presence they bow their head to show there respect .Samuel had his eyes fixed on my mother when I noticed it ,I smiled him .
" Don't worry about her Samuel she came to meet her child before the execution "
I turned to look at my mother who stood behind me .
" Mother you can speak to Bethel , Please make it fast the execution will begin soon.
She walked forward and stood in front of Bethel cage .
" Bethel ...she called out her name , But Bethel didn't answer her "
" Bethel please talk to me child "
" What do you want from me woman,Go away and leave me allow , You caused everything now see were it had landed me ... You caused it all if you had not favoured Valerie over me this wouldn't have happened now see what you have caused mother "
" Listen to me Bethel ,I love you so much but you were driven by your greed for power , And I never asked you to kill anyone to get what you want , I have always told you that a good man will come for you , But No you wanted what your sister had please my child apologize to Valerie so you can find peace in the after life "
" Never ,I will do no such thing ,I hate her and that wont change not even in death "
" Bethel is this your stubbornness that led you to were you are now ,I have made peace with myself ,I can't cry my eyes out because you have choose this path for yourself , Bethel all I can say you lived a horrible life "
" Get out of here woman ,I don't need your sympathy, Am going to die so what, But one thing I know Valerie will never find peace , Even in death I will make such to bring her down that's a promise "
My mother turned to me with tears in her eyes .
" Look at her Valerie she's unrepentant of her sins ,I can't believe I gave birth to this kind of child ,I Cause be the day I convinced her "
" Mother that's enough let her be maybe, When she get to the other side she will realise her mistakes"
"I pray Hades reduce your punishment and I prayer you don't reincarnate into this world as wicked and heartless as you are now "
I saw my mother in tears today ,My heart was restless I have known her to be a strong woman even when my father died she didn't cry this much , But today she wept like a child .
" Mother it's okay please let's go back to the castle "
I held her hand and helped her walk out of the dungeon . When we arrived at the castle I asked Ella to escort my mother back to her room , Then I went into the court room , When the door was opened and and I walked in the noise ceased and everyone the room raised their head to look at me .
I walked majestically to the throne and sat on it , Everyone was surprised , The council started murmuring among themselves .Just then my voice echoed in room .
" I believe we are all seated let the execution began "
Suddenly someone interrupted me .
" Your majesty you are not suppose to sit on the king's throne "
" Why is that so if I may ask sir Araon "
