Chapter Three

"Slap ..! "

Rhian realized the reality of the situation once Queen Marga laid her hand on her pumpkin reddish cheeks .

It was like a dream and she seemed to have ran out of tears all of a sudden .

"Pack up your bags and leave ,Queen Marga pushed Rhian's hand away from her cheeks and caught a grip of her soft pumpkin reddish cheeks .

'Look into my eyes ,she ordered and Rhian quickly complied .

There's no tomorrow for you in this kingdom so pack up your bags and leave tonight with your brother's army .

King Zarus and Queen Rahima had already left for Champa after their " love blind " daughter as King Zarus would say refused to follow them to Champa .

However Prince Rohan ; Rhian's brother didn't leave with his parents .

He preferred staying for a while in Mugal to check how fairly his sister was been treated in the Kingdom .

After a few days of staying in Mugal ,he was satisfied with his results and made up his mind to go back to Champa .

"You still have the chance to come along with me to Champa sis ,Rohan told his sister ,however she refused . "

His journey was delayed a bit because of the uncertainty of the weather .

"Rhian ,your brother and his army will leave in no time ,I don't want to see you here after I come back ,Queen Marga mercilessly said with a flame of fire burning in her eyes .

Make sure she goes back to Champa tonight with her brother's army ,she emphasized and left Wales and Rhian to talk the issue out .

The door was shut with a loud bang ...

Once she left ,the room became silent and heavy until Wales broke the silence .

" Not knowing where to start from ,he gave a sigh and began speaking ; it happened all of of a sudden ,neither mum nor I could handle it and it's gotten out of hands now .

My love is the reason my entire family have to leave Mugal tonight .

My father wants me dead and neither you nor I can stay here even till tomorrow ,he added .

Go back to your family because all the ties are broken between us now ,he said firmly in a soft voice .

Save your life while I do same ,and you have only tonight to do that .Don't be stubborn Rhian ,it's time you realized that this relationship of ours has got no solid foundation and will end us nowhere . Save yourself Rhian ,and don't be so clung to the "crazy love " you have for me .

There are million opportunities out there Rhian ,once you step your foot out of this Kingdom ,the fresh breath of freedom will push you to eternal happiness of million door opportunities to start your life again .

You are beautiful ,so talented ,intelligent and above all ,a warrior ,you don't deserve this life at all Rhian .

She blushed by Wales' description but that was just for a short while .She had to embrace the reality of the situation now before it becomes too late .

Give it a second thought and listen to me even if it's just for once ,he suppressed his tone.

Roman will make you his puppet once I leave you behind .

Your rejection is still buried silently in his heart as it had hurt him badly to his outermost core that you preferred me to him .

Rhian ,I don't want to leave you to that heartless beast and get subjected to his torture in my absence .You don't deserve this and in fact ,no woman deserves this ,Wales scowled when he took Roman's name into his mouth .

"He was not the brother I once knew ,Wales thought stiffly " .

Hmph ! ,Rhian thought for a while before rising to her feet sternly .

"Wh....ummmm ,she hesitated for a while before finally letting out her voice .

"Who is she ?"

Who is the woman that has succeeded to steal your heart after Carmen ?

At this moment ,Rhian felt like the world's number one fool for not been able to win Wales over but then ,if she couldn't , then ,she was eager to find out who this girl is , whose love has caused a havoc for king Duxan to want to kill his own son ? ,she wondered .

This woman must really be great and influencing to cause a rift between a father and a son ,she gave it another thought and then ,a name suddenly dropped into her head with sudden flashbacks of various event composition .

'Rh...he got interrupted by Rhian's sniffs and sobs .

Folding her hands into her chest area ,she felt reluctant to ask this question on her mind but she needed to clear all her doubts .

If she was letting go of Wales ,then she needed to know the woman she was handing him over to .

The woman who made her feel defeated again and it was obvious that it wasn't Princess Theodora because Wales wanted to leave Mugal tonight and so this means their marriage was not coming off .

If it is not Princess Theodora then who's this lady ?

"Is it Krystal ? ,she asked with her broken voice and Wales couldn't believe his eyes .

"What ! ,was he dreaming or did Rhian know about Krys and I already ?

How did she puzzle up the whole scenarios to make a scene ? ,Wales thoughts were contemplating in shocks ."

Wales lost in his dilemma as though he had hosted a thousand birds in his ears became solemn and shocked all of a sudden .

"Rhian ...before he could speak ,he was interrupted by Rhian for the second time .She stood by the window and reached her hands out to the edges of the well crafted windows and enjoyed the cool breeze .

"All this while Wales ,all this while ,I should have known that Krystal was the one who owned your heart .

I should have known the first day i set my eyes on her but sadly ,I didn't .

I didn't Wales and now ,I feel like the world's number one fool .
