Chapter 62: Family or Truth?
I never got scared, not once in my life. Even when I am fighting with the strongest beast in the forest, I never felt my heart racing nor my arms trembled. And I've always believed that nothing could make me, until today.
But when father asked me those questions, my feet got cold, my hands trembled and I felt my heart pounding so crazy, it could burst out from my chest.
He's suspicious of me, I'm sure of that. But decided to just let it go, like nothing happens.
Just how long can I keep this act?
"Prince Tyler." Hamlet got my attention when he suddenly spoke in front of me.
"Hamlet. What are you doing here?" I said, looking at him.
Hamlet smiled at me. And somehow, that smile didn't sit right for me. It feels... off. Almost like a smirk as he crossed his arms and stared me without saying anything.
"Hamlet. Are you playing around with me?" I paused and raised my brow at him, "are you forgetting that I am the prince of this kingdom,

It is done. Only one remains. The fourth phase of Lycaea is one of the hardest phases of the ceremony. That's what I heard. The odd one should be able to control itself right from that moment to have a better chance surviving the last phase. Thankfully, I managed to survived. "Ow! ow! Can't you be a little more gentle?" I said complaining to the beautiful woman beside me. She tilted her head to one side looked at me with her fiery eyes. "Oh yeah?" she scoffed and even put the medicine harder than she already did. "I know Priam told you to spend the night in the forest, so that you could hunt for yourself the moment you changed and be used to the taste of different beast in here, right?“ she said nodding her head, her eyes glaring at me, poking holes in my body. "That's right! And I did manage to control it! Thanks to Nemesis and Wyre potion!" I said happily nodding my head like a child to her. She looked so pisse

"Your highness? Are you awake?" I heard a knock outside of my chamber. "Your highness?" I felt Austin rustling beside me and her brows keep on frowning to the sound of the knocks outside. I kissed her forehead and fixed the blanket covering her. "I love you.." I whispered and quickly stands up. I pulled the robe on my corner table and wrapped it around my body. All my clothes, necessities, this robe and other things that I would be needing are placed outside of my door every morning since the day I came here. Until I told them that I have my own two hands and feet to prepare what I need and I just want them to put it all here in my chamber. Thankfully, they heed my request. I fixed my hair and walked towards the table few meters away from my bed. Like I said, my chamber is as big as an average home in Orion. It's not that big, but it's certainly not small for just a person. "Come in." I said and sat down on the couch with

"WHAT!?" Loki exclaimed as soon as he heard me. He looked at me with a fiery eye with both of his hands placed in his hips. His brows create a thick straight line as he tightens his jaw. I exhaled. Didn't know what to do, I placed my hands on his shoulders as I pulled him down to sit."Relax. He didn't do anything. Can't you see? I'm really okay," I said tapping him by his shoulder.Loki tossed my hand away and clicked his tongue as he looked at me with disbelief plastered real hard on his face. "Did you know what could've happen if Veto turns out to take you on!?" he shouted. "You would die a pitiful death! You won't even stand a fight with him!" "Loki... " Priam said in a low quiet voice. "Veto would never hurt Shaun. He won't not until the last night of Lycaea, that's for sure." Loki looked at his father, "What!? Are you telling me to let it slide just because of that reason!? Shaun would've died!" he said, point

"What!?" Austin exclaimed as soon she heard what Shaun have said. "You want to proceed with the Lycaea, gain that power and kill me Are you out of your stupid and empty mind!?" she angrily said as he put on her clothes and fixed herself. "What!? What do you think of me!?" Shaun answered, "Do you think I can do that to you?" he said reaching for the woman's arms. Austin's expression softens as she exhaled and sat down on Shaun's bed. "Just explain everything to me. What do you mean of going along with the ceremony?" she said. Shaun sat down beside her and pulled her closer to his side, "I only meant it as an act." he said. "We have to make Veto and his ally to believe that I really lose my control over you, gave in to my temptation and in the end, killed you with my own two hands. We have to make them lower their guards for our plans to be successful." he said stroking the woman's hair down gently.Austin put her arms around Shaun's waist as she rests h

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" Aetos exclaimed slamming his hands against the table. More than anger, his face looks more worried than anything else. "Our king confronted the odd one? Why would he do that?" he said, the veins on his arms showed as he leaned towards the other two. "That's what I heard from the king." Hamlet said crossing his arms over his chest as he looked at Aetos with a blank expression on his face. Unlike the other two; Walter and Aetos, Hamlet seems to be calm and relax. Despite hearing it directly from the king that the odd one knew about everything, he sat there without a hint of worry on his face. "After he saw prince Tyler with that odd one countless of times, he wanted to know the real reason behind that closeness. Whether it was just a simple bond or... " he paused and smiled, "or our prince betrayal.""Our prince betrayal!?" Aetos exclaimed again with such horror on his face. "Our prince would never do that to our king!"

"What? Is that all you can do, Shaun?" Priam laughed at me, playfully swinging his sword in the air. "You have the courage to boast that you are the only child of the great king, but look t how weak you are? Turns out, training with prince Tyler didn't do that much for you, huh?" he said. His hurtful words sting my ears so much. Sometimes, I think deep down he really mean every word. I could hear my own teeth grinding with the emotions building up inside of me.Damn! I hate this feeling. I clenched onto the shaft of my sword and took a deep breath and swing at him in a speed of a light but he easily evaded my attacks and smack me in the head using the scabbard of his sword as he laughed crazily. "Is that it?" he scoffed, "you think that would be enough to beat the king? Just like that? Don't be so foolish, your highness. Surprise attacks like that won't work to a paladin who served your father for a long time."I gritted my teeth a
