Datura

CHAPTER 29: FINALLY AT PEACE

They managed to sneak out of the prison area and join the crowd The worst had finally happened she thought ,as she heard them all cheering Vladimir's name, he had turned the people against the king, her heart sunk when she saw Datura being dragged away by the knights, he was alive .

''Guys we have no time to waist, says Henry next to her we have to carry out the plan now, he turned to Alex ''are you sure you can do this?"

His he hesitated
'' I- I don't know if I can," he shaked his head
Alex listen to me ''You owe this to Datura you owe this to Your father, you owe this to me and the people who don't know what they're in for you were born for this ",

''Thank you Lady Dahlia for everything I, wont disappoints you

Sage pulled him into a hug ''Please don't get yourself killed Alex "
'' I, promise he said before making his way through the crowd into the palace

She turned to Henry and Sage come on '' we have to find Anderton ''.

It all made Sense now. Alex was the actual missing Prince 21 years ago his mother,the royal Chef had an unruly affair with the king, leading to his birth that's why he never knew his father. His mother's must have kept it a secret to her death. He was the true heir the the Throne.

She never imagined that she would ever bring herself to do this, but for the sake of her family it had to be done she stood in front of Andertons door in the west wing of the palace while Sage and henry fought off his knights.

She took in a deep breath and walked it Anderton stood at the very end of the room his back turned facing the window
'' Any word from Vladimir? , he asked thinking it was one of his knights who walked in .

'' Wouldn't you want to hear from your wife? she replied back and he stilled at the sound of her voice.
He slowly turned a wicked
grin spread across his face
''that's what I love about you ,you always find a way to surprises me he then eyed her greedily up and down

'' you'd look better in a wedding dress don't you think ?",

'' of course.'' She painfully agreed, with a smile

''oh?'' he raised his lifted his eyebrow amused ''What made you change your r mind?
'' I realized there is no pint in fighting it, I will learn to love you '', she spoke as he slowly moved closer to her

''prove it he demanded, grabbing old of her waist and she nearly threw up in her mouth
'' Gladly", she said pushing him against the wall behind him and his eyes darkened with desire .

''I just need you to tell me one more thing she whispered into his ear

''Anything'', he said eagerly

She reached for the knife in the hem of her dress and dug into his hand pinning it on to the wall and he
screamed in pain, he looked at her in shock
''Where the hell is my family!"

''I'll never tell, you he hissed,
she pushed the knife deeper into her hand and he screamed even more

''Where are they! '', Blood pooled around his hand dripping on to the floor
'' their dead!",

''you're lying !'' she dug the knife deeper
'' if you don't tell me where they are I won't hesitate to take off the rest your fingers

He laughed mockingly '' I already burned them to the ground, you can go head "

'' You're lying!, she felt the lamp in her throat and their tears sting her eyes

''They're dead Dahlia!''he screamed

''NO!
she grabbed his bandaged hand and dragged another knife through it into the wall and loud screams of Agony escaped him

''Where are they!'' she yelled and her voice cracked and her hands beganto shake .
