A SELFISH LOTHAIRE

The temperature in the throne room dropped a few degrees low.

Leonile although he didn't want to admit it, was very intimidated by the powerful aura that leaked out of Lothaire's body.

Suddenly a dark chuckle rang in the room.

"Who do you think you are"?

Lothaire stared at the King condescendingly.

"What do you mean by that"? The King frowned in anger. He felt like his position was being disregard by the lad before him.

"The fact that you have the leverage to do whatever you want doesn't mean that it also applies to my fiancee".

" And I'll warn you not to test me if not today will be your last day sitting on this throne"! Lothaire stared at them indefinitely.

Anyway since Heaven wants to be Queen, if they push him he'll make her wish come sooner!

"You dare threaten your King"?! King Hadrian couldn't seat still in the face of this threat.

"Tsk". "My King"? "You should be clear enough about who and who are or is your subject." Lothaire had a lazy look on his face as he stared at the people before him.

" It's not like you want her anyway so why are you so reluctant to give her away"? Leonile asked in anger. He didn't like the feeling of being suppressed by his younger brother.

"You should be quiet and listen when people are talking. A brainless person like you does not have anything reasonable to say"!

Lothaire chuckled amusedly when he finished talking. He felt that he sounded more like his little fiancee.

King Hadrian frowned as he stared at the stubborn man before him.

"You don't have a say in this. Me telling you is out of respect that you were once to be married. It doesn't mean that your opinion matters"! He spoke sternly.

"Oh".. Let's see who dares hold an engagement!

"And you should watch your throne properly so it won't get missing....I doubt that you can do anything when that happens anyway"! Lothaire walked out indifferently, too tired to deal with brainless people.

King Hadrian stared at the retreating figure and felt a ting of regret. He sensed that he had just woken a sleeping lion.

He turned to his son and spoke fiercely.

"If only you are half as competent as he is then we wouldn't be having this problem"!

..." And if only you let your little guy lie still instead of putting it in holes, he wouldn't have been a problem".

" Well I guess I pretty much took after you"! Leonile snorted and walked off. The roof of the problem has always been his father!

" Y-you.... " King Hadrian's face twitched so badly that it almost fell off.

"Lothaire frowned as he journey to his manor. 'why does that little woman attract flies everywhere she goes'? 'First Jasmine and now Leonile'!

"Master" the north district giving problems our distributors in Vielle City. They stopped the goods from going through Vielle". Estevan reported dutifully.

" What do they want"? Lothaire felt less concern about this trivalent things. It's not the first time that it happened.

"Erm... About that"... "They asked to meet with you in person"! Estevan had difficulty in speaking.

"Tell them that I Thunder said that they should get lost"! Lothaire said in a pissed voice. How can he leave now that there are many dried bushes trying to steal his fiancee.

"Ahem"... Estevan coughed till he almost spat blood.

"M-master"?...

"Don't tell me you don't have enough salary to do a monthly check up on your ears or did I speak any foreign language"?

.."And why is the carriage moving at a snail pace"?

The series of questions, one after the other was enough to tell Estan that his Master is angry or more daring.... He is nervous.

He didn't need a physician to tell him to shut up!

After a long and suffocating journey, the carriage finally slipped into the manor.

Lothaire quickly walked into the house but surprisingly found it empty.

His heart rammed wildly against his ribcage.

'did she leave just as she had said'? The thought of such possibility, drove him insane.

He walked up to the room she stays at and walked in anxiously.

"Y-you". Why did you come in without knocking are you so anxious to see me naked? Heaven had a sly smile on her face.

"You're here"! Lothaire heaved a sigh of relief as he stared at her.

"Yes". You didn't expect to see me here did you?

"Ha"! Heaven covered her mouth with her fingers.

"Did you bring home a mistress"? She stared at him accusatively and and tiptoed to the door slowly to take a peak.

Lothaire chuckled merrily at her cute antics. He then flicked her forehead.

"At such young age, your thoughts surely do run wild". He snickered.

Heaven stuck her tongue out and then pouted sadly.

"You can't blame my for thinking to far. My fiance is so outstanding that I'm afraid that another woman will conquer Jim before I am able to".

Heaven spoke in an agrieved tone. It was as though she is about to break down in tears.

Lothaire laughed at her cute behavior. Times with her is always fun.

"Don't worry, I plan on giving you time to chase me. If you don't succeed, don't blame me for going to another lady"!

"Hmph". Let me see which lady dares to covet my belonging"! Heaven snorted.

" Didn't you say earlier that you would go to the First Prince"? Thinking of what she said the day before, made him want to bite her running mouth!

" I thought about it and finally came to a conclusion that I can't just leave without turning you I to a fish at least"! Heaven smirked and winked at him.

"I'll surely w-ork h-ard..."Ahem". Lothaire coughed hard and held his chest in pain. His already pale face became as a sheet of paper and scrunched in pain!

"Are you okay"? Heaven asked anxiously. This is the first time she has ever seen him vulnerable.

"Don't touch me". Lothaire barked at her. He would never allow anyone to see his weakness lest they use it against him. Humans can't be trusted.

'how the h"ll did he forget what today is'!

"You are in so much pain yet you have the time to talk nonsense"! Heaven scolded.

" Shut up and listen to me"! You saw nothing! If words get out about this then I'll kill you without sparing your bones"! Lothaire leaked out powerful aura as he walked off.

Heaven shrank back in fear as tears clouded her vision. 'she was just trying to be there for him what did she do wrong'?

'since you don't want me I'll just leave'! Heaven made up her mind not to come back here as she sniffed.

'you're just so selfish '!
