Sebastian who heard all of this couldn’t be bothered in the least. He killed her and so what? She was nothing but a pawn in their father’s tyranny and when it was announced that she would be dying, the marriage was moved to Princess Nora who was happy about it too and this time, she was marrying the duke’s son and not him.
The queen looked at Sebastian who was staring out to nowhere and said, “Sebastian, did you kill your sister?”
He snapped back to reality and as he answered, “And why would I do that?”
Nora turned to him and said, “What about her exposing you to father? Like she said before you and Aldridge are the same.”
“Prince Aldridge,” Sterling reminded her. He made it clear once before that if they
Aldridge pushed the doors open to his office and sighed. He walked around his desk and sat down on the chair and looked at Shawn who was closing the door. Shawn slowly walked up to the desk and said as he looked around, “So that went well.” Aldridge pouted and raised his legs on the desk, “It did and I can’t believe that she was planning to get in your pants, I’m glad she is dead, who the fuck does she think she is.” Shawn raised a surprised brow and asked as he looked at him, “You curse too? That’s new.” “Oh please Samuel, do you honestly expect me to be prim and propper after being accused of murder when we know who the culprit is?” Aldridge asked. Shawn walked around the desk and sat on it in front of Aldridge. He picked his feet up and put them on his lap and too
Aldridge sat down as he heard Sterling's words then pulled out the folder in his desk drawer that he put in there earlier before placing his feet on the desk.He places the folder on his desk as he said, "I didn't hear anything about any murders, I'm sure Sir and Madam Majordomo would have told me."Shawn side-eyed him as he said, "He did tell me. I'm the one who didn't speak."Aldridge turned his head to look at Shawn and was about to say something but remembered that Sterling was with them.He sighed and said, "Alright. I want you to have a deeper look into these cases when I am done going through this folder. Compile a file of your own as well so that we have something to report to the king as well."As Aldridge was readin
Shawn walked up to a man sitting on the street corner asleep covered in dirty old blankets and coats. He raised his foot and moved the man’s leg and the man quickly shook awake.He grabbed his hat ready to yell at whoever it was but then he saw that it was Shawn and sighed, "What do you want now?"Shawn shook his head amused and took out silver coins and chucked them at him as he asked, "What do you know about the recent murders taking place around the capital?"The man stood up after fixing his hat and looked at Shawn. "Are you talking about the six men or the five women?" He asked as he was counting his money.Shawn looked at him confused and asked, "How many are there exactly?"The man beamed and held his hands toget
Leonardo exhaled as he walked through the wooden doors of the heir apparent’s home in the woods and looked around as the air around him smelled fresh and perfumed by his manliness.He had been here many times before but it was not welcoming in the least as every time he thought of his prince, the woman holding his surname.He made his way through the living room to the backyard and saw Sterling sitting on the lawn on a red blanket.Leonardo smiled as he felt his heart beat increase seeing his prince and quietly walked up to him. He crouched down behind Sterling and covered the prince’s eyes.Sterling held Leonardo's hands that closed his eyes with a smile on his face and said, "Who dares?"Leonardo pulled th
Aldridge opened the door to the chamber and saw Leonardo sitting on the bed wiping his eyes. He closed the door and leaned against it as Leonardo looked over at him.“Red eyes? Really Leo?” Aldridge asked.Leonardo smiled wearily and nodded his head, “You finished immediately? I would have waited. I do not have plans to go home anytime soon.”Aldridge stared at him for a moment then walked towards the bed and sat down beside him. He looked at Leonardo who was staring back at him then asked, “What happened?”Leonardo sniffled then all his emotions poured out, “I broke it off with Sterling.”He rested his head on Aldridge’s lap and continued to cry. Aldridge was shaken to hi
Aldridge had a deep frown on his face as he read the new case he was given this morning.Shawn was sitting opposite him and reading through some of the official documents to get himself up to speed with the kingdom’s affairs.He heard Aldridge groan and asked, “What happened now?”Aldridge pulled a band out of the top drawer and tied his hair up, he looked at Shawn and said, “Besides the pressure father has putten on me to solve the couple murders, there is another problem on our hands.”Shawn looked at Aldridge and said, “I have been meaning to ask, why is it that a prince is the head of investigations?”“Oh? I didn’t tell you?” Aldridge asked him and took a s
“Ah!” Aldridge moaned and almost fell back as he came in the air.Shawn quickly caught Aldridge who soon passed out in his arms. Sterling quickly stepped forward and asked, “Is he okay?”Shawn looked at him surprised and asked, “You were here?”Sterling looked at him embarrassed as he picked Aldridge up and said, “I wanted to speak to you both but now it is only you.”Shawn turned on his bottom on the desk and jumped off, he sat down on Aldridge’s chair holding him in his arms and said, “You are welcome to speak to me if you want and I am beginning to think it is related to the tent pitched in your trousers?”Sterling’s head snapped down and his heart dro
“Haa”“Haa”“Haaa”Aurielle heaved as she ran through the forest.“Get her!!” Men screamed in the distance as they ran after her with torches and garden forks in their hands.She climbed over fallen trees, boulders and made it to the waterfall. Looking back she could see the torches then turned back to the waterfall and the gushing sound of the water falling frightened her. She took in a deep breath and jumped off of the cliff into the water but just as she thought she was safe, her head banged against a rock ending her life.The men arrived at the cliff and didn’t see anything, there wasn’t even a sign that she came this
