Brewing war

" Where were you?"

"Went out.."

" Ronald..when am talking, try to give me a well deserved response" a serious hint of anger surge up

" Savage.... I went to see her" a total submission filled the air

" That's a good boy...! Have she accepted you yet?"

"I think you haven't heard the news..!"

" Go straight to the point stupid!"

Ronald sighs feeling so weak in front of him

" The general locked her up in her chambers..house arrest..no one is allowed to see her."

" You're useless..get out!" Rage rose up within savage...his eyes glare were dangerous and frightening... Ronald legs grew cold and weak as he walked out

" Alex... don't you dare ruin my plan. It seems you are not busy enough ehn... I'll make you busy" his terrible laugh filled the place.

********

A complete definition of the devil walked in the room..there was silence and fear groom in the heart of those that stands before him

" Great one...we have received message from Sacramento...they lost the battle" it was obvious that fear grip his heart as he shivers

"Is that so...? So you have been idle.. isn't it?" The great one replied with a cold piercing voice

"No, great one...! I did my best to turn them against each other..the destruction of Glowing valley was inevitable until Arthur stepped in and sacrifice himself.. which I didn't see coming oh.. great one" his head on the ground and his voice mumbling for mercy at the feet of the great one

"The fact remains the same...! Guards...behead him and bring his wife and daughter to the palace" the cruel order was served as the guards dragged the man away

His lips was sealed as he couldn't beg for mercy as that would destroy his entire family and they would be wiped out from existence

" Rina..Take care of the rest of his kind, but spare me his daughter" another order made the entire court crumble in silence

"Yes great one"

The devastating looking king played silently to his furry cat... the cat bite him and the court gaps

" Resisting me... I see...too much flesh. Tina..take our furry creature away..feed it to the wolfs and get me a new obedient cat" his cruelty has no end..

" Yes great one"

"Court dismissed!"

*******

Isabella is still under house arrest but getting better at whatever she's doing..she takes her time well in learning how to resist her dear sweet Uncle. Her political books have been suddenly replaced by ' How to resist a charming man' with different collection.

She was so immense in her reading and didn't noticed who came in looking at her with a strong gaze

" It seems you really like being trapped..."

She jerked off her seat and quickly and hid away the book behind her

"What's your business with me today General Alexander?" With such a scarstic tone made Alexander chuckles

'Rebellious' ...." Well am here to see how you are faring... with a thought that you'll put up a good behavior" he added with a serious expression

"Of course.. you don't need to tame me... I am of good behavior!" She yelled back... Her sudden gaze made him feel heat all over. He walked slowly approaching her..,she walked back he pulled her closer to himself

"Stop this nonsense... don't be preposterous" she struggled under his arms

He didn't bother listening to her...he brought his lips closer to her neck and gave it a slight kiss which made her tremble all over.

Over to her earlobe he twist it with his tongue and gave her a bite on her neck and she moaned softly

He could feel her legs growing weak in an instant and a satisfactory smile laid on his face

"Don't ever think you can resist me.. you are mine and so is your body. I have longed for this and letting you go is not an option....if you let go

.. I'll take you back again." After these words he kissed her softly and left her in a daze

After recovering from the kiss...she felt angry enough to burn all those books down again. She squat on the floor thinking of how she can get herself out of her mess. She looked around and spotted a piece of paper form one of the books she burnt

' Play a man by playing his game and hit him unexpected'

A sudden mishevious smile formed on her lips and she felt pleased " Don't worry Alex... I'll play your little game"

She immediately got up and freshen up looking beautiful and seated on her bed reading historical books.

The court was in turmoil as they urge Alexander to free Isabella from her arrest ti find a suitor worthy of the throne

" She is young and naive..what does she knows about marriage? I want her to be a good and useful queen who can fight side by side her husband in protecting our kingdom"

He is not going to let her be with anyone... rather let anyone know of his nights with her... what is his goal exactly..?

" General...we understand you care for the princess..but please let her out a bit"

" Who makes the decision...me or you?" His sudden question silence the uproar of the court

" General..we have a problem" the captain of the army rushed in looking worried

" What's wrong?"

" The old king of the cannibal had been poisoned...it says in the letter that we had a hand in his death" the captain read out the whole court gaps

Alexander laughed which feared the court " Yes, indeed I had high hopes to kill him foe betraying us at the last moment but the truth be told I have done nothing...go investigate and bring me proof"

" Yes general!"

The court didn't seem satisfied with his decision..they believe they should do something drastic

" How about we go and declare war on them? This is our time to strike!"

" Yes general...they are backstabbers and they deserve to die like dogs please release your order"

"I can see you are all eager to die. May I remind you that the cannibal are dangerous and has lots of army. We suffered a huge blow last war...we are not ready for war. Except if you want to volunteer to fight them yourselves" he didn't spare them a glance

They reasoned at his words knowing fully well that it's a sucide mission. They kept quiet waiting for the results of the investigation and his next action.

Another guard ran in with more devastating news

"General...we have a bigger problem! His royal highness of High wall has died"

This new update made everyone to jump off thier pants. High wall is their strong ally, and with their current king dead it's going to be hard to get support form them.

Alex wasn't moved but he felt shock..he was was good at concealing his emotions...the court saw nothing on his face and trembled.

With two words he walked out; " I'll handle it"

Not giving them a chance to explain not because he has a plan but for the first time he felt off.

********

I was in my garden reading a book and eating snacks until you know who came in with a sharp gaze.

I had no intention of talking to him at all... little by little I'll trap him and I'll be the one ordering him around

" Manners?" He raised his eyebrows

"General Alexander" I replied with a slight bow. I know he hates me calling him that but I'll frustrate him till he leaves me alone

" We can start from somewhere.!" He replied without looking at me. His voice was shaking and obviously he looks weird. He walked away without saying anything.

" Call me Darien!" I need to be aware of what's going on outside my wall,that way I won't be stupid.

A moment later,he showed up and he bowed to me

"Take a seat..." He replied with another ' thank you your highness'

"I'll go straight to the point".…. I was quick to notice his blushing face..

"What's wrong with you?" I was getting disgusted by his sudden move

"Nothing... your.. highness" he was looking more weird than expected...

"Get out...!" I immediately order... what's wrong with all the men these days
