“Tame her till she gives up!”

Benjamin paused and looked at the man infront of him.

Xavier Jordan ' Morningstar' , just like his name was exuberant, fearless and power. He did heard of Xavier before but that was through news and tabloid that kept posting rumors about the successor of Nicolas. And he did definitely made into news for the not so good stuffs. He is a rebel amongst the royal family.

That was also the reason why, he was given the name of the devil's –'Morningstar.'

He was no less than the devil himself. After all he was the shadow of his father.

News and media never failed to highlight the feat and rendezvous of the Prince of Barrack. The successor of King Nicolas and the next in line to the throne of Barrack.

Dressed in his crimson royal suit , with blue sash cutting across his should, made his look magnificent. Nothing like the lethal princes he is know to be.

"Benjamin meet my son, Xavier." Nicolas's voice bought Benjamin out of his reverie. He looked at Xavier and tried to understand the young prince in front of him.

"And Xavier , meet Benjamin. My very dear old friend." Even though Benjamin's heard the mocking tone in his voice, he choose to ignore. His eyes where stucked on Xavier.

"Nice meeting you, your royal Highness. " Xavier took a step close to them both and bowed slightly.

But what Benjamin noticed was that, there was a vast difference between his gestured and voice.

"I came here to in form–" Before Xavier could complete his sentence, he was cut off by his father who suddenly looked at him and frowned.

"Why are you wearing Royal uniform? This is unethical for you to not to follow the royal dress code. This is the dress that you are suppose to wear only in special occasions!" King Nicolas's voice was harsh as he glared at Xavier suddenly, while he looked least bit affected. And Benjamin looked at both the father son duo cautiously.

"Pardon me for the henious crime , your majesty. But I do believe that today , we do really have a big celebration day. Oh, pardon again, not we, but you. After all you have successfully completed the very first stage of your plan." Even though his looked down while talking to both of them, Benjamin didn't missed the small smirked that made its way to Xavier lips.

Nicolas frowned for a moment before he let out a laugh and pulled Xavier for a hug and patted his back.

"You definitely did a good job , son. And just like you said, it definitely a big a day for us. Something that we should celebrate." And for the first time , Benjamin has seen a Nicolas smile.

Nicolas gestured both of them to come with him and he lead them towards the balcony of the room and that lead to a small sitting area in open. He sat down and gestured Benjamin and Xavier to do the came, and the next second, he called someone to serve them a bottle of champagne.

One of the servant got a bottle of champagne with three flute glasses. He bowed and placed everything on the table and bowed one last time and walked away.

Nicolas grabbed the bottle of champagne and opened the cork and pored it in three flute glasses.

"A toast to our first step to victory." He smirked and raised his glass , and the two filled his lead.

"To first victory."

Nicolas took a sip from his glass of champagne and then turned to look at Xavier, who was sitting stiffly.

"So tell me, what's the progress?"

Xavier had a blank expression on his face at his father's question.

"Well, minus the part where she is ready to tear me apart, it going good." He said and looked down, the sudden invation of electric blue eyes made if feel weird.

"What you you mean my ready to tear you apart?" Nicolas looked at him, alarmed. While Benjamin watched both of them rather uncomfortablely.

"Don't worry about it." His silence made Nicolas furious. He placed the glass on the table and looked at him.

"You were the one who selected her! You said she is the best one for this role. Now what kind of joke is this!? " Xavier looked down , not wanted to answer his father's question.

" Don't be silent! Speak up , tell me what's going on! Is it about money? Does she want more money?" Xavier sighed at his father question. The little minx has already given him a very tough time morning. Now he didn't wanted to deal with his father, his majesty Nicolas.

"She doesn't want money, she wants freedom." Xavier rolled his eyes as he remembered how the little girl tried to fight him.

"What? Xavier, this one was your call! I told you not to intervene ok this matter , but you left me with no choice. You know how importance this is for me, and yet you went ahead and selected her." Nicolas was furious, and that and had looked away from Xavier.

"I tried my level best to make this calm and safe. But no, you have to go ahead and pour a bucket full of cold water on this plan. " Nicolas sighed and looked toward Xavier, "Just flaunt her some money, and make sure she is ready for the next phrase of the plan. Do what ever it takes but ,just don't do anything on your own and spoil my game!"

"But why someone wouldn't agree for such a great proposal?". Benjamin voice his opinion and Nicolas nodded in answer.

Xavier hand clutched the front of his glass tightly and he mind threw a flash back of what he had to go through. That electric blue eyes have had definitely raised some serious issue on his brain. He wasn't supposeto be thinking of going back to her but something intruded him, to calm wildness in her.

"Do whatever it takes but, tame we till she gives up the fight!"
