Lorenzo returned to his seat as soon as the chief guard left. Could this be true? When did such a thing happen?

For a man like him, he wasn't supposed to be bothered, but yeah, he was. Although it didn't reflect on his expression or anything; it could only be felt inside of him.

After a while, Liam returned with the chief council who was heavily adorned like he was on his way to or from a meeting.

"He's here, My Lord" Liam bowed and with the wave of a hand, Lorenzo dismissed him.

"Greetings, My Lord" the chief council bowed as he stood in front of Lorenzo.  

Although, he was way older than Lorenzo, he was wise enough to know it wasn't in the size, but the status.

"You may rise, counsel" Lorenzo replied and the elderly man didn't hesitate to lift his head Immediately.

"I got your letter. How serious is it?" Lorenzo asked after a few seconds of silence.

"It's very serious, My Lord. King Gabrielle wouldn't oblige to our

I really need this” princess Emilia's groused, her face crumbling up.“But why would you make such a request in the first place, huh? Why would you want to be under someone as possessive as Lord Lorenzo?” King Ephraim asked, stopping and turning to spare her a glance.“I…. I just want to. Please father, don’t say no. This would really mean a lot to me” Emilia clasped her palms together and said with pleading eyes.Oh…! She really needed this man to agree.King Ephraim didn’t say a word as he took off his Royal robe and gold belt as well. And as he did, Emilia could only stand and watch in anticipation..“You can leave, Sharon. I&rsquo

    Carlotta stood up as soon as Liam left."What's he talking about? Why does he want me to get dressed up?" She asked Ginevra who was closing the door."I don't know Carlotta, but based on his words, I think you're going out with Lord Lorenzo". Ginevra replied and could clearly see the surprise in Carlotta's eyes."Going out with Lorenzo?' she scoffed."And why would I go out with Lorenzo? I mean.... to where?""You were here when the guard arrived, Carlotta. I have no idea. But to avoid getting into more trouble, I'd suggest we just get ready as instructed. Come on…"She held Carlotta's hand and pulled her towards the closet.*"I'm really not comfortable with this, Ginevra. I mean, I need to know why Lorenzo wants me to get dressed in the first place". Carlotta groused as Ginevra riffled through her wardrobe for some clothes."Just stop complaining, Carlotta and do as you're told. This is one of the reasons

    Suspense ran through the room immediately as Lorenzo stared silently at the counsels with a blank expression.The silence stretched and went on for a long time, the counsels were beginning to think they might get punished. But it was necessary."Why should it be of any concern to you?" Lorenzo finally asked and it was of great relief to the men that he finally said something."My Lord" the chief council began. "No disrespect, but you should know getting an heir is as important as ruling this community. And that's the reason we'd gotten a third wife for you. You need an heir, My Lord. And for the fact you haven't been intimate with your new wife is of great concern to us. Is there a problem with her? That's the reason we're here, My Lord, to help with your problems. So, if there is one, you should please, let us know".Silence descended again as it seemed like the chief counsel had spoken the minds of the rest of the people of the members and now, the ball

    Carlotta walked behind Liam as he led her to the Royal carriage as instructed and getting there, she noticed it was still empty."I thought Lord Lorenzo would be here already?" She turned to Liam and asked."He's getting ready, princess and will be here soon. Please, go into the carriage and wait" Liam answered respectfully with a bow and not wanting to create a scene, Carlotta walked into the carriage and took a seat.She didn't know for how long she waited but just when she was getting impatient, Lorenzo finally showed up. She knew so when she heard the guards calling out his name."My Lord".For no reason, Carlotta could feel her heart skip. Maybe it was because she'd be so close to Lorenzo for a long time, sitting next to him in the carriage and riding with him until they get to their so called destination.The curtains were opened right afterwards and taking a look, Carlotta's eyes came in contact with Lorenzo. Oh… crap.S

    The ride to the palace was very long and when they finally arrived, Carlotta couldn't help but feel so relieved. Her waist was beginning to hurt already.Peeping from the window, she admired the beauty of the palace which was looking well decorated and arranged, guards and maids moving about with trays and the rest. The place looked really busy, and cheerful.Lorenzo's carriage rode in and parked at a suitable location, and immediately, his guards came around and led him as he walked out of the carriage with Carlotta.Their heads of the guards were bowed, Liam standing in front of him while another guard stood beside Carlotta and in that manner, they started walking towards the party together."Lord Lorenzo!" A man suddenly called, rushing towards them with some guards behind him."You're here! I'm so glad you made it"Lorenzo stopped walking as the man got to where he was and so did Carlotta and the guards."Minister Philip" Lorenzo

Her mood was so ruined, it didn't occur to her - not at all.Almost immediately, her personal maid arrived, whispered something into her ears before standing behind her.Carlotta, on the other hand, was also silent and kept wondering where Lorenzo could've been. Where did he go to, leaving her all alone over there?Well, why should she even care? She was sure nothing would've changed if he was there.She just continued watching the activities and dance entertainment going on at the party and shortly, she heard the lady beside her sniffle.huh?She turned quickly to have a look and notice she was wiping her face."Are you… crying?"

    Prince Aiken walked into the room, his lips shaking as he stared at his sister’s corpse lying there on the bed. Her face had gone white and pale already, so obvious she was really nothing but a corpse at that moment.He whimpered, a tear dropping from his eye as he got to the bed and lifted her head to rest on his chest."Anya" His voice was shaking.“I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry”.Yes, he was so sorry because he killed his own sister; he poisoned his own sister.Hot tears gushed down his cheeks; tears filled with pain and regrets. He never wanted to do it. The drink was meant for Carlotta. Damn it! It was meant for Carlotta, not his sister. Why the hell did she have to be the one to drink it, huh?He wept more with her head still on his chest. Oh! If only he could have turn back the hands of time. If only he could reverse everything and make this moment nothing but a dream. So many regrets… so many.

Princess Emilia gasped again.'How does he know that?'"And how do you intend to do that, huh?" Princess Emilia wanted to say that out but kept herself shut and just watched."It's just an exchange, only on one condition," he continued."You'll get me Princess Carlotta and then you'll have a chance to get Lorenzo.""Tch.
