Chapter17 of chapter 3 I trust you

Narrator Pov....

She stormed angrily into the room, slammed the door opened harshly and kick it back. Scott who was enjoying his morning meal quietly in the dinging table in room, with eyes closed, was awake from his dream world. He thought someone unexpected have barge into to the room unwanted. Before, Emily left the room, she had make sure to warned her maid not to come into the room since Scott was still hiding there.

Frightfully, he stood up, dragged on the little knife on the table. Turning, his eyes fall on a fiery woman smashing everything that comes her way. 

Scott who was confused at her suddenly appearance of anger, walked towards her. 

"Emily, what's happened" 

Emily who was stuck with the last object in her hands, turned to at him, her eyes were full of tear. Did something happen in the court room? Curiosity, he asked again. "Did your brother hurt you?" 

For what he have study when he was still around the mansion. The only one to make Emily cried would rather be Marcus or the Duke. But since he had appeared in her life again, he didn't considered the Duke to be  effect in her life except her brother. 

Emily shamefully dropped the object in her hand, she felt broke and sad. Her heart have been tore into pieces. After all these years, he choose a maid over her? Was she that ugly and unattractive to him. She had love him, cherish him, admired him, even prayed that one day he would look at her, but that day never come to pass. 

Now, a black disgusting slut was going to be his duchess? Something she had prepared all her life for! That's can't be possible! She's the one who deserves to be by his side not some trash from the street! 

"Emily, give me the damn answer, did Marcus hurt you?" Scott asked harshly, he was getting impatient with her slient. 

He remembers when she went to the court room this morning, she was in a good mood but this crazy woman smashing everything in the room.. With the way she breaks down, Scott know something was amiss. 

"Emily!" 

"When are you planning to killed the black slut?" She asked drily, while a stream of tear slide down from her eyes. 

Scott become more confused, he had told her everything about his plan. But didn't expect her to get this consigned. 

"Emily," he bent down in front of her. He love her with all this heart. And one thing that would break him down was seeing her getting hurt. 

"You can trust me, what happens in the court room?" Being too harsh wouldn't give him the right answer. If something that breaks her down, that means it deep. 

Emily, who have gathered all her courage, finally slip out the bean. " The Duke is getting married to the black maid" 

Scott felt sick, like everything stop working. Did the Duke wants get married to the black maid? That's unbelievable! Them have thought the Duke was only having fun with her, didn't know it would be this serious. She's going to be the next duchess. Was the Duke repeating his father path? 

Subconsciously he stared down to the woman weeping on his arms. Still doubting the fact the Duke wants a black maid as his future duchess. 

"Are you saying the truth?" 

Emily raised her swollen face at the man she was laying head on his chest. "You don't believe me?" 

"Yes of course, I believe you. Just that I'm surprised the Duke was going for a black woman" 

" That's the reason I want you to kill her. Just end her life for me. Please!" 

" Sh...ssh, it okay. I promise it would be done" his eyes went darkened. That's bastard wants to go back to his words. Them need to act fast, that maid had to died .....

Behind the door of the chamber. A tall figure stands at the door entrance, evadropping on the conservation between the two lovers in the room. A mysterious smile curled up on his lips.

"What a sister I have" his face expression turned sour.... He can't believe she had been lying to him all these while. He gritted on his teeth while smiling delicately like he saw something amusing.

"Evadropping on a lady is a bad habit"  A voice echo from behind him. He stunned, frighten when he knows who has the voice. He turned, a enchanting figure stood a few feet far from him. 

"What a bad manner" the Duke comment, his face was showing a serious look. 

Did he knows What Emily was hiding in her chamber too? Marcus asked himself inwardly, and faster his feet to him before he comes closer.

"Milord, what are you doing here?" Marcus asked while strode towards him.

"Why shouldn't I been here when someone send his woman to interrupt my mood!" 

Well, he haven't know about Emily secret, he had to keep it to himself. If the Duke found out Scott was in his mansion, and the worse path, Emily was the one hidding him, it would endangered Emily life too.

Marcus knows the facts, how the Duke despise his enemies, he wouldn't think twice before he attacks. That's means he wouldn't mind having Emily head in the process. 

The best for Marcus to do, was to keep it to himself and figure out what to do with Scott, and keep his sister safe...

"What are you saying?" He asked pretending, 

Arthur rolls his eyes, this idiot is just like his woman. After he had send his woman to disturb his mood with Isabella, he was pretending to be unaware? What a cheater! 

Reading the look on his face, he resume to be aware. "What, you can't blame me. She wants to be with her friend. And I can't give up the offer she had given to me" Marcus snapped, who would refused a woman who have fully offered herself for sex. He just can't resist such delicious meal served in the table for him.

Arthur smirk, sure he knows Marcus can't just grant wishes that easily except there is an agreement...

  His eyebrows creased, he shift closer to Marcus who was blushing over the word he just said. 

"What agreement did you and lady Lily had that I can't get my satisfaction with my woman!" 

Marcus was dumbstruck, was he trying to have sex with her! 

Marcus eyes wide at him, he tried to calmed himself down. The first thing to do, was to get Arthur out of here before he get suspicious of Emily. 

"Why don't we go somewhere better to discuss"  he dragged on Arthur hand, like a child who was going to be scolded by his father.  and them both walks down the corridor in slience. 

Arthur felt something amiss . Marcus heart have never been this beats loud before. When Marcus heart  throb like this, that's means he's hiding something or afraid.

"What happens? Why is your heart racing?" 

Damn! That's the reason he get tired of night creatures. It impossible to hide thing away from them. Them can tell when humans are frighten or trouble..

"You can tell me anything. Remember your promise to me" he said looking straight forward without glancing at the side of Marcus. 

Marcus clearly know what he meant, it was better to tell him the truth but he had to protect his sister first. If Scott was back bin the mansion that tell what happened to the lord that died must have something to do with Scott. Guess he was back to take revenge on them. 

He sighed, and tried to suppress his fear. He had to do this! For Emily sake...

"What are you saying milord? If I have anything to tell you, I would have told you. Beside I have never forget my words to you. You can rest your assurance on me" 

Arthur turn to look at the man who have grown up with him all these years. He had trusted him and believe Marcus can never go against him. Marcus was the only person person he had finally trust but the way he was feeling anxious now, he believes he's hiding something and doesn't want him to know.

Without pushing it further,  he let it go, when he's ready. He would make him know...

"Of course, I have put my trust in you since the day I first met you" a mysterious grins appear on his lips as his eyes stared further in no direction. 

I have done get rid of Scott without Emily getting hurt. Marcus said inwardly.
