Chapter 46

"Princess, you called for me?" Cyrus questioned as he entered Amelia's bedroom. After news of her engagement, he was expecting her to be alone for a little while longer. When he received the message that Amelia wished to speak to him instead of Gina, Cyrus was surprised. Gina would be better at comforting her.

"Close the door quickly Cyrus. We have a lot to discuss," said Amelia.

"Do you want me to go around and figure out who it might be?"

"No. It won't be long before my father or one of his underlings tell me about it. I have thought this over since returning to my room and I have not been able to talk myself out of it. I am going to kill the king," Amelia said then waited for Cyrus's response.

"Come again?" Cyrus was certain he heard it wrong. He had always joked about Amelia killing her father but to hear her say it was odd especially when it didn't feel like she was joking. "You cannot kill the king, princess."
