Tyramon's POVI paced in my room up and down impatiently, my head was filled with worries, about if Aethelfrith was fine or not.Has his arm been healed or not?Did the doctor check the hand or not?I was not able to control my curiosity. I opened the door, about to go to Aethelfrith's room when I saw Rose standing by the door with her hands in the air as if she was about to knock on the door."Rose, what are you doing here?" I asked I was confused because I didn't send for her.She bowed her head slightly, "Lady Tyramon, Crown Princess Crimson has sent for you," she delivered her message and Left immediately.I wanted to go see Aethelfrith but I had to go see Crimson because I still have a pending punishment. I entered Crown Princess Crimson's room but she was in her bathing suit so I had to wait for her to come out.When she eventually came out, Her Majesty was just in her black lace underwear."You are late," Crimson said the moment she stepped her feet into her room."I had things
Aethelfrith's POV"So what did Zella want in return?" Leon asked, looking at the signed paper Zella gave to me.I sighed, "I don't know yet, she said when the time is right,""You fool, you really signed the papers," Leon smacked my head."Shhhhh," I said, placing my finger on my lips when I heard a faint sound coming from the door. Leon raised his eyebrows and mouthed "What?"I went to the door because I was sure I heard a faint knock, I opened the door and the sight before me broke my heart into pieces. I was shocked rather than surprised to see Tyramon in this state and in front of my door. Tyramon gave a faint smile before falling unconscious. I rushed so she would fall on my body rather than fall on the floor. I carried her into my room and gently put her on the bed."Jezz what happened to her?" Leon asked, his eyes widened with surprise rather than shock at her state."I don't know for sure but I can only say it's Crimson handwork," I said, my voice certain."Damn, what are y
Aethelfrith's POV"My punishment is to get married to Leon," Tyramon announced, her words sounding like thunder to my ears. It felt as if I had lost my sense of hearing."Or?" Leon asked, how could he be so sure there is an alternative?"I will leave the kingdom and never return," Tyramon said, her eyes on her Palm.Leon breathed a sigh of relief, "You are taking the latter," he hurriedly said."Hmmm," Tyramon lifted her head to look at Leon, as if not expecting him to say what he had just said."What? You are obviously taking the latter, aren't you?" Leon raised his eyebrows."Crimson doesn't have that type of right," I said, my voice firm. I was about to leave the room to Crimson when Leon held my right wrist."Crimson has the right, I mean she has the right to arrange my marriage," Leon said. I could clearly hear the amusement in his voice."Is it funny," I question"It's not," Leon was talking when I interrupted, "Crimson has the right on you and not on Tyramon!" I yelled out.How
Crimson's POVI let Tyramon go after confirming what I wanted to confirm, I knew she would go to Aethelfrith's room and right now I couldn't care. After Tyramon left, I had my bath again, u couldn't let her blood be on me."Crown Princess, you seem so happy," Rosa said, she smiled warmly at me."Do I?" I smile shyly."Yes Princess," Rosa answered. I knew she wanted to know the reason and of course, I would tell her the reason."I'm happy because I verified what I wanted to verify," Rosa nodded her head in response to what I had just said."Katrina," I called."Yes, Princess," Katrina answered. She handed me my red diamond ring. I kept the ring inside a single drawer and locked it."Whatever happened today, should never be spoken off, never, have I made myself clear?" I warned."Yes, Crown Princess Crimson," Both Rosa and Katrina answered in unison. I knew something was off about Tyramon from the first day she stepped her feet into this Realm and now I have confirmed it. "It's obviou
Crimson's POV"Yes Father, I do have a good reason," I said.I looked straight at Aethelfrith, the smirk on his face already faded, I clicked my tongue, and winked at Aethelfrith.There was no way they thought I didn't have a backup plan, I wasn't that stupid.I had planned everything carefully, from getting evidence to giving the punishment after all I learnt from the best. Leon, Aethelfrith, and Tyramon's faces were priceless at this moment. I wanted to laugh but I couldn't."Wh…wha.. what reason," Leon stammered,I was expecting Aethelfrith or Tyramon to ask first but I was a bit disappointed that Leon asked first."Leon, be calm, I will answer," I said. I took a sip of water from my glass. I loved the panic I sensed in Tyramon's eyes."Crimson, what reason are we talking about?" The king asked me."If it's a good reason will you let my punishment be?" I asked, trying to strike a deal with the king."Yes, I promise not to interfere," The king promised."Okay then, there is a rule t
Aethelfrith's POV"Yes Father, I do have a good reason," Crimson said.She looked straight at me, the smirk on my face faded away, I could hear her click her tongue from across the table, and she winked at me.What does she mean, she has a good reason, the color drains from my face as panic runs through my veins."Wh…wha.. what reason," Leon stammered, I was about to say something but Leon beat me to it."Leon, be calm, I will answer," Crimson said. She took a sip of water from her glass. "Crimson, what reason are we talking about?" The king asked her."If it's a good reason will you let my punishment be?" Crimson asked, I wonder what she was getting at."Yes, I promise not to interfere," The king promised."Okay then, there is a rule that states no Royal male can enter the room of a female if he isn't married to her, am I right?" Crimson said, my attention was more on her now."You are right," Queen Elisabela said."And if a female that isn't married to the Crown prince enters hi
Crimson's POVThe king's punishment for Aethelfrith rang in my head continuously. I didn't want my Aethelfrith to get punished, I just wanted Tyramon to get punished or kicked out of the realm. I paced around Zella's room, my finger in my mouth."I need to get my Aethelfrith out," I said my voice barely a whisper while pacing the room."Crimson, calm down," Zella said, painting on a canvas board."I can't be calm right now," I said, still pacing up and down in her room."I don't care if you can't calm down but you have to, can't you see you are distracting me from painting," Zella said with utmost seriousness."But," I hadn't finished my words when Zella threw her painting item on the floor out of anger and let out a terrifying scream breaking the glass around me. I flinched and looked at her in shock, my eyes widened and filled with fear.Zella walked up to me and held my hands, her nails enclosed, making her claws dig into my skin, her eyes turning red and her fang coming out. This
Crimson's POV"Aren't you going to answer that?" I asked, pointing at the door."I will," Zella said."Don't worry, let me," I smiled politely and walked towards the door."No let me, it's my room," Zella dashed towards the door at full speed, surprise written all over my face.Was she expecting anyone she didn't want me to see? Zella opened the door slightly, I took a deep breath and focused on her, with my inner energy I could hear her heartbeat loud and clear and as if she was scared of what was or who was at the other side of the door, she placed her hands on the door hand."Aren't you going to open it?" I asked curiously. Zella nodded her head. She opened the door slowly but soon released a breath of relief, the color quickly made its way back to her face, and was about to smile when she frowned at whoever was at the door.She was definitely hiding something and I wonder what it was. I would have loved to find out but I have other things to deal with."What are you doing here?"
