“He did what?!’ Amanda said, almost screaming.She could not believe that her son had gone to Arthur and threatened him!“That was what I heard from my lady. I am really sorry but that is all I know for now” Richard said in apology.“Why would you let him go and meet him? Why would the guards let him in? Does he realise he is jeopardising our chances of getting everything done smoothly?!”Richard bows his head.“I suppose you will have to remind him what is at stake. The prince cannot take out his aggression on the King knowing that the plan is still in motion”Amanda paces her room, annoyed by what her son had done.Why doesn't he listen to anything she says?!Why does he always have to act like a kid whenever he's upset about something?!“Do you know what they discussed?” “One of the guards claim that he was asking if the king had made contact with his mistress” Amanda stopped at Richard’s words. She cannot believe that Edward just gave away her secret weapon!“The bloody bastard!

It was best if things are kept out of Emperor's hands. It is only that way he will be able to sort things out.It's the only way that problems would be avoided..After hours of people moving here and there in his chambers Arthur glanced at his reflection in the mirror.He realise just how much he had missed his role as the king.Seeing himself in the Royal robe, with this Crown rightfully on his head…He knew that things would have gone differently if he chose to handle things in a more courageous way! He had let his problems overwhelm him, especially t

Arthur was informed of the Emperor's arrival.He will scouted by an entourage of men that were clearly on Amanda's side, towards the front gates where the emperor would be walking into the Palace..Amanda joins them with her own entourage of maids and soon, they head towards the gate together.“You look like you are being forced to do this. At least smile a little” Amanda said, with an almost too perfect smile on her face.Arthur is not going to let her have a say concerning that. This was his own decision if he wanted to make this meeting casual or not.The gates swing open and the emperor walks in with his guards and a big smile on his face on seeing Arthur.“It's been a century, I must say!” Arthur said with his smile, laughing at his own joke.The emperor laughs in union as the duo hug.Amanda kept a close eyes on Arthur to make sure that he wasn't doing anything suspicious..She wouldn't hesitate to blow her uncover If he tries to ruin this for her…“Wow.

“Are sure that is what she's trying to insinuate? Because from what I have heard so far…”Arthur burst into laughter, trying to lighten the atmosphere a little bit.“That is exactly what she's trying to say. It would help boost our sales and increase rhe standard of living of the commoners as well. My wife here seems to care about the commonera a whole lot more than I do” He said, trying to save the situation.Making such an offer to the emperor was an act of disrespect! One that he had expected Amanda to know about!Not everyone is as greedy about money as she is! And making such a offer to the emperor was worthy of death even!If they manage to escape the death penalty, they would be removed from the Royal Palace and replaced with the next in line.Arthur knew that he would have to prau and hope that Amanda keeps her mouth shut!Once the emperor is home, he would show her her how terrible her decision that was!The Emperor nods but he seems to regard them in seriousness.“I do appre

This is a huge responsibility! I don't think that I am…” “You are very vast in politics. You are kind hearted, I have tested you a thousand times in the past few months, and you have not failed one. You are just the right person for that seat..” Kelvin was visually surprised and a little bit doubtful..“I heard that the court wanted you to become king. Your father was King. It is only reasonable for you to ascend as one too..” Keith smiled. There's somethin

“Your highness you can't make such drastic decisions! The King has just been laid to rest and we need the two Princes to complete the events! Then we can ordain our new king..” Amanda was sitting on the throne, facing the court members after hours had passed.Arthur was laid in his room and his funeral will be happening the next day. She didn't waste any more time to get things started.“I understand your fears but prince Keith is nowhere to be found. The guards have searched everywhere for him but no one can find him. He seem to have dropped from the surface of the earth. We can't and I repeat we can't leave the throne empty. We need to do what is right and needful at this minute.” “What are you suggesting that we do then? We just have to keep looking for the Prince and hope that he returns one day.” A member of the court replied.“How long do we hope to wait? Eternity? The young man has just lost his father. A man he met a few days back. I don't think that he will be in the right f

It is to show everyone that he is truly his father's son. He was also given the gifts bestowed to the royal family hy the Creator.Keith glances at Edward who was more than confident in his own abilities. He had seen what Edward looks like when he isn't full control of himself , he was nothing short of a monster…Keith was worried, chances are that Edward would go out of hand as a result of this so-call display..“The events has been going smoothly and we have come to the very last one. You would have to show everyone that you are truly your father's son and this is as a result of your absence…” “We believe that the two of you have remarkable abilities, you will be forced to put you both in a combat only then can we tell the strongest..” Edward smirks at this, it was almost like he had seen it coming from a million miles away..His exc

Keith stepped out briefly a smile on his face. He felt so alive and radiant with energy..The discussion he had with Ellinor was a beautiful one that yielded results! He had expected that talk to be a direct opposite of what eventually happened! He assured her that she was safe and her that secret was safe with him..Keith decided to walk around that early morning, trying to get as much sunlight soon as possible..‘You didn't win the competition yesterday.”He turned to see Hana, someone he least expected to see at the moment!She seems to be out for the sun as well but a rather disturbed look was on her face..“And why does matter if I win or not?” Keith asked in irritation.He decided to drop the act of playing nice, it was time for her to know that she was in the wrong..“But you seemed happy. Llike you won. am sure that you want to be king as much as Edward wants it too.” She pointed out.Keith tilts his head to the side, wondering where this conversation was going to lead to..H

Keith had a smile on his face, he won this round and his points seems to be looking up really good.The most important thing was the fact that Ellinor told him his family were safe like she promised.Nothing could make him anymore happier than that. To know that his family was safe and sound in the Jade temple.Ellinor was right next to him. She notice the radiant smile on his face, making her wonder if he wanted to go meet his family…“Are you going to stop by and say hello to them? Your mother, Agnes, asked of you and I told that that you were doing fine..”Keith was quiet, he didn't think about going to visit Agnes, neither did he expect her to ask about him.Agnes and Williams are every right to blame Emma's death on him. It was his duty to protect his sister but he failed horribly..To make matters worse, the person who had caused them pain happens to be someone related to him by blood!“As long as they are safe in the temple, I am fine. There's no need for me to go and visit them

Her voice echoed through the walls of the quarters. “How dare he speak to me like that? Who does he think he is? I want him dead! I want him dead by all means necessary!” Amanda shoves a glass of rice wine, trying to suppress her anger somewhere down.Richard walked into the room and bowed his head in courtesy.“My Lord, I just received an information concerning Keith's parents. We found them..” “You found them?” She asked and Richard nodded his head.“Yes, my queen. I was able to find them. What would you like us to do now?” Richard asked.Amanda was excited, smiling. She had no idea where to start but seeing that she had an upper hand, only made her even more excited.“Call me that boy. He is currently celebrating his wi
