Blood is thicker than water**(A big joke no way...)

Lola was distressed and couldn't help but think about what her uncle said. She had intentions of ruining Madison's life but was at some point and after consideration of what exactly the things uncle Ben was capable of. He has been the one to give her instructions, he would do things behind her back and wouldn't spare Madison one bit if so possible. She couldn't take much thinking, she wasn't going to let her friend suffer. If she was given the vow to protect people in the kingdom and was known to be the one to make the princess of the kingdom's life a total mess she wouldn't be spared one bit and be sent to the gutters, knowing how powerful things could become. She wasn't ready to face them.

She walked in her direction as fast as she could to her uncle's room only to meet a silent breeze there. Asking one of the maids who secretly knew things that were going on with her uncle and secrets about him. She was able to get to her uncle's whereabouts. He was in his private room far from the mansion house somewhere deep in the jungle for protection.

She ran towards her horse, getting up on it she whip the reins as her horse galloped as fast as the wind. The moment she got to the place, she walked towards the house not caring if the protective gadgets that placed around the hut were set, she used something most people of Zuma kingdom knew about and few didn't know about like Madison to protect herself. She ran to the door she stared at the knob of the door which was locked and suddenly became open, she reached for it only to see lit candles from the window side, her uncle was in there.

She ran towards the deepest room her uncle stayed in for security reasons as she barged into the room not minding. Immediately she entered she was welcomed by some men and her uncle seated on a brown fluffy couch with different men also seated in the same style of the couch as each singular couch was circular. She gulped looking at them as she bowed a little to pay her respect. They all looked like they were in their fifties and forties like her uncle who was in his forties, so there were the accomplices of her uncle. She took her time to scan each of their faces and keeps storage of how they looked, who knows what might happen in the future.

“U-uncle, I need to talk with you privately.” she stuttered seeing the angry boiled face of her uncle that switched within a few seconds. They were having a feast and she barged into the room irked and was expected from her uncle.

Ben dropped the cup of wine on the floor on the left side of the seat so as not to spill it. Giving Lola a cold stare that send a strong freezing aura that gave her chills in her home, he gestured for the men in the room to leave the room. Getting the gesture, the men dropped their drinks, leaving the room to Lola and Ben with the unwavering freezing aura, Ben gave.

“U-uncle,” she said taking some fresh air and trying to be confident because if she was brave enough to talk to her uncle then he was going to see how serious she is about the matter.

“Uncle we can't do this, is a huge risk endangering the life of the princess, you know how powerful the lineage of the heir could be more than the half lineage. Knowing you Uncle, you're not going to spare the princess you'll make her life a total mess and do something big more than everyone could ever imagine, that's why after consideration… I've decided I can't do it with you and you could stop your plans, I was angry at the moment you came all I could think about was how to deal with Madison. Madison deserves a good life after all not all people are welcome to have a good life, they all tried their best to protect me even when they knew nothing about my secret so I wouldn't let the heir to the throne's life be in danger.”

Ben chuckled lightly as he looked at her, he truly loved this behavior she displayed and it was interesting to him. He stood up from the seat and walked slowly towards her, with the same cold aura and the deadly gaze he was giving to Lola, as she also walked backward slowly till her back hit the wall.

“You are quite cunning…” he said as he reached her with a smirk on his face that made him look like a representative of a demon. He stretched his hands towards Lola only to hold her right hand.

“Cunning as a wolf, a snake would be a lot better for you even the lion who is the king of the jungle can't survive the venom of a very poisonous snake. Tick by tick, minutes by minute, hour by hour, day by day, month by month, year by year. I had only one ambition and very soon that ambition of mine is going to work out you'll see. These hands…” he raised the hand he was holding as he raised it to her eye level so she could see it.

“These hands are the ones to display what you truly want and there is no way you could deny them. Once the mind speaks the mind of its own the hand displays what it speaks. Your hands will perform the work, my dear….”

“What are you going to do?..” she stuttered when Ben shifted away walking to his seat. He bent down to pick up a knife that was on the side seat of the seat, the knife was used in case someone unexpected entered but he was able to detect and recognize Lola before she barged into the room since he was able to use his senses quite sharp this time, it seems he'd hadn't grown old this time. He smiled as he held the knife handlessly.

“I promise you this time I'll be the one doing the work, you'll be the one doing all the work of me.”

“What?!!.”

Lola held her breath down gulping down her saliva with the cold and callous gaze that was headed toward her. He raised his hand so she could see his hand which was held high and the other that he was using to hold the knife. He placed the knife closer to his thumb and used the knife to cut his thumb, without a flinch at the pain creating a flush out of blood from his thumb as his eyes spoks like the devil who was ready to create the disaster as fast as he wanted it to happen.

“Blood is thicker than water.”
