Chapter 19

Walking away angrily Evelyn can't just help but think of what happened there earlier she was such a novice to have believed that he is different from all men and talking of divorce she knew she will never be able to divorce him unless he wanted to end the marriage himself that was just a threat she enters her room and slam the door close what a scumbag she cursed herself sitting on the bed she replays the scene that happened earlier but she can't help it but burst into tears she was so naive.

"The king just ordered for crown prince Felipe's release," Chad said Lucius inhale sharply and turn to face him "release him" he responded displeased "why?" Chad said looking surprised "do you think my wife will want to see me? Am a monster I just betray her trust" he clench his fist together like he was fighting himself "hum... Your highness I... Think....."

"You should let her go" Alexa interrupted walking towards Lucius. Lucius looks at Chad and he immediately knows what to do he turn his back and leave "what do you mean by that Alexa, divorce my wife?"

"Yes, she will do nothing to help you all you need is me now and you know it or will you go there and show her your dark side?...... You can...." Before she could complete her statement Lucius strangle her neck and pull her against the wall his eye color changed his fang was long and sharper "don't you ever tell me that again never... All I need is my wife and I don't care if she knows who I am... UNDERSTAND?" He yell at her then let go of her neck Alexa cough out and nodded the positive.

Lucius searches for Evelyn everywhere in the room but he can't find her anyway later he saw her in the garden standing alone looking up to the sky he inhales and look at her 'i wish you are gone I wish you had never existed, I never want to see you again' Evelyn words replayed in his head but what could he do any woman would have said the same thing if she was betrayed whereas she never meant it slowly he reached out his hand and touch Evelyn's shoulder, startled Evelyn turned "I...." Evelyn frowned and turn her back on him again crossing her hands over her chest "what do you want" she ask "am just here to tell you that am sorry...." He responded but Evelyn keep mute "I don't want us to fight anymore......" He touches her shoulder again but Evelyn slaps his hand away Lucius smiles and chuckles softly "are you jealous wife?" He tease 'humm.... ' she pout Lucius hold her shoulder and flip her around to face him but she hug him while trying to balance her stance shocked Lucius raise his hands and allow her to wrap her hand around his waist she creep and about to pull away when Lucius hug her back "I dismiss her" he said with a little force Evelyn's eyes widen she can hear his unsteady heartbeat maybe he was telling the truth but she ignore it she wants to tease him some more before giving in to his apology "fine let me go" she said and pull away from his embrace even though she wants him to hug her for a little while more it so comforting and relaxing "are you still annoy"

"No, but that doesn't mean that I have to forgive you" Lucius scoffs "okay your highness" he smile brightly at her and unknowingly Evelyn smile back his eyes and smile were so tempting suddenly Lucius's expression to dark expression his eyes was narrow like he was calculating a move change Evelyn became curious she was about to speak when Lucius grab her arm and pull her beside him Evelyn was shocked but before she could recover an arrow landed on the wall right behind them but Lucius dogged it before it could hit him Evelyn's lips form 'o' where did that come from Lucius angrily pull the arrow from the wall it has a note written on it 'watch your back' it sounds like a warning note he angrily squeezes the note and throw it away no one dare play this kind of dirty game with him not even the king even putting his wife life at risk his brothers were crossing the limit.
