Liam composed himself and helped her up on the horse. He also got on it too, he had chosen to ride with her for certain reasons. For one he wanted her close to him, the last time he held her was when they were about stepping into the dining room which was literally to him, ages ago.
He called her his blood bag but it was just for name because the real reason he made the deal with her was not even achieved, if this stupid girl should look at it, he was the only one fulfilling his part of the deal, helping Martha.
Second reason was that, he was afraid she might get hurt, since when did he care like this? He was the prince who could not be spoken of, out of fear that he might appear in the shadows, he was the one who passed orders like the greek god he wasn't and also the prince of all Vampires, a title that puts his life in harm's way.
Liam and Becca's horse had long disappeared along with the morning mist but someone was still brooding staring at the same spot they just were. " Future queen, breakfast is ready, would you like to eat in your room or the royal dining room", on hearing that particular voice, Tori's lips pulled up in a sinister smile. " Why the hell would I have breakfast in the Royal dining? Everyone would be too busy with the preparations to care about breakfast, go find out for me if the queen mother is at the table", she ordered and Gwen left immediately.
If she couldn't get Becca away from Liam, she would just use his mother for that. The one person Liam couldn't disrespect was his mother, well his father was hibernating and his mother was a strong headed queen, she would have to play the cards well to be able to make her bend. Not sooner than she expected, Gwen returned. " Future queen?", Gwen said asking for permission to speak.
" Speak Gwen", She said coldly and Gwen shook but spoke anyways, she was afraid of annoying her future queen. " Queen mother had gone with the Former Prince Lukas to see the higher ups about the coronation since it's a celebration not just for vampires but all royalty from the other kinds, Witches and Werewolves, Future queen", Gwen said and Tori nodded dismissing her, she wasn't needed anymore.
Tori made sure to shut the door herself before going to her cupboard. She brought out an unused piece of paper and some ink. She then wrote;
Rebecca,
I thought you told me you have already made it into the palace, why haven't you come back yet, haven't you found out the real reason why the king has suddenly disappeared. Make sure the Prince tell you sooner, you only need that information, if he request you may also sleep with him but make sure you find out the real reason why the king went into hibernation leaving the kingdom in charge of the Prince, your reward will be precious if you succeed.
....Code Lilly Rose
She then placed it inside an envelope and sealed it. After the coronation ceremony was over, she would make sure to act on her thoughts, no one can save Becca now.
"Lady Tori are you in there? Open the door", she heard Georgia's voice from the other side of the door and she Vamp sped to keep everything, making sure to clear her dressing table of any evidence she just used an ink, before calmly opening the door. On opening the door she was met with Georgia's furrowed brows, " What are you hiding?".

Liam steered the horse and they arrived at an Inn. He jumped down and this time she didn't need his help well because she was good at this part, jumping down on her own. Her father had taught her how to ride a horse and he was supposed to teach her how to get on with ease, she didn't know what happened but could only add it up to the fact that she ran away.
" Did you keep Martha in here?", she asked as soon as they walked in but he rather kept mum and ignored her. If she kept repeating the name Martha every time, he might just end Martha himself. That was insensitive, even for him but he just felt aggressive anytime she payed too much attention to that weak human, she cared about him less but Martha could occupy her brain for long.
" You didn't have anything to eat so I thought why not stop for some breakfast before anything else", he finally said as they got to the front only for a redhead girl to bump into her. " Watch where you are going", the girl said pushed her again and walked away. Becca just glared at the girl and let it go, she wasn't an impulsive person but someone else was.....
With one look from his eye, a guard who was around the corner followed the girl and payed her a nice visit on behalf of the Prince.
" I don't want food Liam, I'm perfectly strong", she said to hear her tummy grumble. Vampires had good hearing so he must have noticed it, well she didn't have anything to eat after breakfast yesterday so she did feel a little weak. " I'm not insisting, I just don't want my first experience having your blood to be dumb, I prefer all my firsts to be perfect", he said and led her straight for a table and they both sat down from a waiter to attend to them.
Well she didn't complain anymore. She was too weak and maybe she needed food indeed and after that, some good sleep, what was she thinking? She needed to see Martha, maybe after food. Her belly grumbled again as if in agreement with her decision.
