THE THIRD-PERSON OMNISCIENT POINT OF VIEW.
Somewhere in the Latco kingdom. There is a very old small cottage alone in a lonely area. A woman seems sitting on a faded mat with her daughter who is lying unconscious on the floor.
The old woman held the young lady's hand caressing it softly, she looked very scared and emotional. Suddenly, the young lady cough lightly and open her eyes at the same time.
"Are you okay?" the old woman asked looking so worried.
"How did I get back here?" The young lady asked as she sit up with the help of the old woman.
"I was able to get you back home with the help of two young men. "The old woman replied.
"Hmm. "The young lady hiss
"Ace, when will you stop stealing? I know it is very hard for you to cope with our new life, but trust me, you will soon familiar with it. "The old woman said with a small smile.
"Enough mother! did you just say that I will soon get used to this?
never!! you cause this mother!! if not for your greediness I won't be like this!!
You tried to destroy a whole family, you kill Hina's mother for crying out loud!!! I regret ever following your step! I regret how I make Hina feel in her father's house!! I will never forgive you for this!! "Ace yelled and rushes out of the cottage.
Hot tears rolled down the woman's face as she cried hardly
"I regret everything I did back in Bliss kingdom, I regret my action, I can't believe I could become this way all in the name of power. Alice!! Alice!! my life is run. "The old woman said inwardly as more tears rolled down her eyes.
Alice regrets ever agreeing to marry king Gerald even after she was having a secret affair the chief Dan
FLASHBACK
"Father, but I don't want to marry king Gerald. "Alice said
"You have no say in this Alice, you have to marry him, to get more access to this land. Can't you see how fresh your friend is?"Alice's father said in anger.
"I don't care how she looked, father! I can't marry someone I don't love. "She said trying to control her anger.
Alice had a heated argument with her father, the day she was told to marry King Gerald duel her father's greed for power
Alise hate the fact of marrying the king so she told her father her mind but he gave her no choice.
She left the house intending to tell Dan, her secret boyfriend.
When she told him about it, Dan only comfort her and told her to follow her father's decisions. Alice only laughed it off and think Dan was only joking, but when Dan tell her his real motive she accept without thinking. That is how she got married to the king.
She became greedy and looked for more power when she got to the palace, and that is when she planned to kill Hina's mother when she thinks she was locking her way. Her plan was to succeed with the help of Dan,
She finds a way for Dan to become one of the ministers in the palace, and that is why everything became easier for her.
BACK TO THE PRESENT
Alice wipe her tears and quickly rushed out of the cottage in order to look for her daughter (Ace), she hope the gods could forgive her.
THE GOLDEN PALACE / SOMEWHERE IN THE PALACE.
Alex has been searching all around the palace for Molly, but he could not find her, he was really tired as he stood beside to wall to rest for a while. He needs to speak to her about what Queen Hina told him early, he can not believe he wants to give up his love for Molly because of what she said the other time. Now, she knew the reason behind it, he won't give up until she was with him. He was still standing by the wall when a skinny maid walked toward him.
"Greetings your majesty. "She said with a shy smile.
"Yeah, what did you want?" He asked simply, not interested in whatever she was about to say.
"I like you, your majesty. "The girl said shyly.
Alex was about to reply to her when he felt a pair of two eyes boring a hole in his body. He stared ahead and see Molly, who was busy glaring at him in anger. It seems as if she was coming from the field with the basket she was holding.
Alex smirked before looking at the lady in his front. He raised his hand and touched her hair before brushing it gently, and thousands of butterflies dance happily in her tummy.
"You like me?" Alex asked in a flirty voice which make the girl happy.
"Yes your majesty, I like you and I want to be your lover. "The girl replied with a shy smile.
Alex raised his head from his shoulder before cupping the maid's cheek. He glanced in Molly's direction, and she was still there, glaring at him in anger.
"Well, sorry baby, I don't do kids. "Alex whispered as he lean his face closer to her.
"What?" The maid asked in surprise. She can not believe he call her a kid just because she was skinny.
Alex chuckled at the way the girl's face changed, he stood straight and look in Molly's direction but she is no longer there anymore.
The smile was wiped out completely from his face and he quickly looked around but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Gosh!! I lose her again. sh!t. "He cursed and quickly walked away before the girl could say another word.
Alex couldn't stop staring around hoping to catch a glimpse of Molly but it was pointless
"Gosh!! I mess up big time. "He breathed out and ruffled his hair.
"Maybe I should check her in the garden again. "He muttered before rushing toward the garden.
He opened the gate gently and saw two figures backing him beside the lake.
He glued in a spot boiling in anger as he watch them
"Molly. "He stuttered, as she turned with a man beside her, a gasp left his lips when the person turned out to be one of the palace guards. His eyes were wide in surprise as the guards walked out of the garden not without bowing for him.
"Who is that?" He asked, moving closer to her.
"Why are you asking, not like you care?" She replied hotly.
"So, you turned me down because of him? and the reason why asked me to stay away from you?" He asked with a tinge of jealousy in his voice.
'How dare you talk to me like that when you are ignoring me all this while. You started ignoring me all of a sudden, and you are even flirting with another maid, you did not care about my feeling. "She yelled in fury.
"That is because told me you don't love me, you say I should stay away from you since am not ready to do that I decided to give you space to think about my love for you. And you think I will be happy as I see you and that guard together?" He half yelled.
"I enter the garden and see him there, did you expect me to send him out?" Molly asked in anger.
"Sorry. "Alex muttered as he smile handsomely.
Molly rolled her eyes and tried to walk away from the garden, but Alex quickly held her hand and turned her face toward him.
"I am sorry. "He muttered and started moving closer to her and she tried to move away but he held her closer.
"Your her the goddess of beauty Molly, that is why my heart chose you at the first sight. "He muttered calmly and Molly swallowed hard.
"I am sorry for flirting with that skinny maid, I just did that to see if you love me, I did not mean to make you sad. "He pleads
"I was really hurt when I see you with her, but I know it was my fault, and am sorry for punching you away because of my fair. "Molly muttered.
Alex smile before cupping her cheek in his hand.
"I love you more than anything in the world. "Alex said in a whisper.
"I love you more. --- ---- " Alex did not wait for her to finish her word before he leaned his head closer to her and gently his lips pressed on hers lightly.
Molly's eyes were wide open in surprise and after some seconds, her eyes were shut and she started reciprocating the kiss, the way he was kissing her.
Alex's hand went to her waist and gripped it closer, while her hand raked his smoothy hair slowly, hearing a sweet moan from Molly as they kiss.
After what seemed like ever, they broke the kiss and started breathing heavily.
"That was so. "Molly said breathing heavily.
"Sweet. "Alex completed her word. Molly look away in embarrassment.
"Good night. "She muttered and quickly opened the garden gate and rushes away.
"Finally. "Alex said happily before rushing after her.
KING VINCE'S CHAMBER
"Wake up Vince!!" Hina said hitting him lightly.
"What did you want, honey?" King Vince asked weakly.
" I'm hungry. "Queen Hina said pouting childish.
"What could you like to eat? "King Vince asked sleepily.
" I could like to have some sushi. "Queen Hina said slapping her hands happily.
"But you can just eat that without waking me up Hina, I pack the one you did not eat a few hours ago. "King Vince rubbed his eyes sleepily.
"I have already finished that. "Hina said with a pout.
"Hina, I pack up to seven trays of sushi, you can eat the rest. "King Vince said trying to cover himself up.
"I have eaten everything. "Queen Hina yelled pulling the duvet away from his body.
"What!! "King Vince exclaims shockingly, sitting up immediately.
He could not believe Hina can finish seven trays of sushi that had ten rolls on each plate at once,
Hina asked him to make that sushi early, but she crave another thing when he was done making the sushi. She claimed the sushi make her feel like throwing up, so he pack it up and make the spicy noodle she asked for.
He can remember how he begged her to eat that sushi early, but he made the noodles when she started crying.
Queen Hina's sobbing brought him to reality.
"Hina. "He called and tried to hold her but she move back.
"You don't like me anymore!! you hate me because am fat!! you even call me Hina, not a goddess or pretty angel. "Queen Hina sob louder.
"I am so sorry pretty angel, how many trays of sushi did you want?" He asked with a forced smile.
"Two plates is enough for now. "Queen Hina smiled and caress her face.
"Am at your service, my lady. "King Vince said and walked toward his kitchen.
IN THE KITCHEN
" I'm starving, hurry up. "Queen Hina touched her tummy.
"Okay. "King Vince muttered and turn on the gas.
A few seconds later
Queen Hina hugs King Vince from behind
"I need to concentrate back on my cooking love. You will not want us to burn down the palace, right?" King Vince asked while Queen Hina turns off the gas cooker King Vince crease his brows looking at her.
"Am no more hungry, so let us just hug forever. "Queen Hina said cutely.
King Vince chuckles and hoisted her up, and Queen Hina gladly locked her legs around his waist.
"I'm all yours my lady."King Vince walks toward the inner chamber
