Chapter 253 - Two Hundred And Fifty-three: Desperate For A While

The third point of view

In the kingdom of Lincolnshire:

Even after seven years, his senses had not dulled at all. So when he felt a dip in his bed and the heat of a body next to him, he became conscious of a presence. Before the person could touch him, he had sprung up and grabbed her hand.

"Who are you and what do you think you\'re doing?" He glared at the woman attempting to get into bed with him. His gaze was cold and murderous, the woman shivered.

"I-I sorry," She choked, "My prince, it was the queen. She insisted I must sleep with you today else my head would be chopped today,"

Prince Kai whipped away the sweat on his forehead and with a harsh voice, ordered, " Get out!"

The lady was hesitant, "B-but my prince, the queen-"

"Do you want me to tie you up and send you out?" He threatened.

"Of course not," The lady gulped, the prince was so frightening.

"Now, get out!"

"Yes, my prince," She scurried off as if the devil was on her heels.

With a loud sign, Kai plopped back on his bed, staring up at the ceiling. Who said being a prince was an easy job?

Every day he had to ward off women from his bed each time he dared to close his eyes?- courtesy of his mother who wanted an heir as soon as possible. If only she knew another person was occupying his heart for the past seven years.

Seven years? He wondered if she would still remember him? Plus the fact Adam declared him dead.

Adam? That name made his fist curl and fury appear on his face. He was the reason why they had to separate and her to marry another. Kai trusted him and fulfilled his part of the deal, only to get stabbed in the back.

He had known Adam was never a truthful person, a sly old fox but he just hoped that the man would put his service to his son Niklaus in account while meting out judgment on him. Who knew the man was just a devil in angel\'s clothing.

He would have his revenge - that was for sure - even if it hurt Emily but her father has committed so much atrocity he doesn\'t deserve to live. If it wasn\'t the fact that his mother had been keeping an eye on him, he would have died that night.

Prince Kai got to his feet and took a quick shower. His birthday was around the corner and unlike other years, he was going to celebrate this one in a grand style.

Other times, Kai had not been interested, always slipping out of the palace before D-day - his training as a shadow guard does come in handy in times like that. Royal birthday parties were so boring, observing courtesy and entertaining some socialite brats that threw themselves at him. He\'d rather go about, accumulating power and preparing himself to return to Emily.

Donning a crisp white shirt paired with perfectly ironed black pants, Kai was just working on his top last two buttons when the door to his room was opened. Thinking it was his valet that came into protest - he never let them dress him up - Kai let down his guard nor did he glanced over his shoulder to acknowledge his presence. However, he never expected a pair of fair hands to wrap around his waist from behind.

Great, Fiona! He should have known. Here was another aristocrat who made it her life goal to claim him as her husband.

Fiona\'s father was part of the royal inner cabinet, possessed lots of land and property, hence had quite an authority here and abroad - still below the royal family. Hence, a union between both families would be a fruitful and blessed one.

"You can let go of my waist now, I hate clinging women," Yes, all, except one.

"Nope, just let me be for a minute. It\'s not every day I get to have this rare chance of touching you, ice prince," She mumbled, nestling further into his back.

With a sigh, Kai began to pry her hands off him one after the other till he was free from her clutches.

"Seriously, you\'re no fun," She pouted her lips like an aggrieved child.

"Thank you," He said without much emotion, "Look for someone to bother,"

"I live to bother you," Fiona smiled, exposing her white peerless teeth, trying to hug him once more but he turned her away.

"Seriously," Fiona stomped her foot, exasperated, "Why don\'t you like me?" she began to list "I\'m beautiful.."

Indeed, Fiona was beautiful. She looked like a fairy with her strawberry blonde hair, hourglass shape, sensual lips, and green eyes that could hold anyone spellbound. But he was just not into her, he had another preference.

"I\'m rich -"

"You mean your father\'s riches? " Kai interrupted.

She stood akimbo with her chin thrust high, "My father\'s money is my money,"

"Yeah, sure," He sassed, " Pray he doesn\'t marry a second wife who gives him a male heir,"

Fiona\'s mother had died at an early age hence, her father spoiled her rotten to make up for the loss. But then, with his appetite, it wouldn\'t surprise Kai if a lady claims to have a child for him - bad news for Fiona. As an only child, it was expected that she would take over her father\'s position once he departs. However, there might be some alteration if a sibling appears out of the blue.

Fiona gave him a sharp scowl, " I have enough resources without my father\'s to ensure you have a stable reign without the incident of treason..." she faltered at once she realized what she just said.

Kai gave her a look that made her wish the ground would open and swallow her up. She knew it was forbidden to bring up that ugly part of the Lincolnshire history but she had been trying to make a point and that slipped out of her mouth.

Kai didn\'t say a word but his intense gaze spoke volumes. Though he wasn\'t here when the Lincolnshire treason occurred but the haunted expression on her mother\'s face hurts him each time it was mistakenly brought up.

The reason he had to be given out at a young age was connected to the treachery. Unexpectedly, the royal family was betrayed by one of the lords of the inner cabinet; they killed the king and other royal blood male blood who might rise to contend with the throne.

Prince Kai would have been a victim too if the queen wasn\'t smart and quick to hand him over to a servant who fled the kingdom of Lincolnshire with him that night.

To avoid being tracked down, prince Kai had to be dumped at an orphanage and given the name, Judy.?From afar, the humble servant observed and kept track of his progress which she reported back secretly to the queen.

So after all the battles, the queen finally reclaimed the kingdom and the prince was to be returned home.

"You can leave now," Kai dismissed her.

"I\'m sorry," Fiona apologized with her head lowered, " I didn\'t mean to say that,"

At once, a knock sounded at the door which Kai guessed to be his assistant, it was past the time he came to give his daily reports.

"Come in,"

The young man walked in

"Good Morning my prince," He bowed his head.

"Morning to you too, Archie"

Archie\'s gaze rested on Fiona, he cleared his throat, "A-hem, lady Fiona, as you know, it\'s highly inappropriate for a humble lady like you to be in the prince\'s room by this time of the morning when you\'re clearly not married to -"

"Fiona was just leaving, weren\'t you?"?Kai focused his questioning gaze on her.

That was an order, Fiona realized.

"Of course," She acquiesced, knowing when to draw the line. She did a formality bow," See you later, Prince Kai," And left.

Kai was relieved but then, his eyes spat fire at Archie, "What are my guards doing? This morning, one of the servants sneaked into my room to seduce me!" He barked.

"I think you should see the queen for that issue, my prince," Archie told him the plain truth.

Kai pressed his temple, the woman was so desperate for an heir that she now employed servants in her evil plot?

"Fine, how\'re the arrangements going?" he asked Archie who understood what he meant by that.

"I\'ve sent the invitations and from the look of things, she has accepted and is coming alongside her friend and son"

"Son?" His brow raised interestedly, the child she had for Ahmed? Yes, Kai understood that Emily was forced into marrying Ahmed but he somehow wished she still waited for him - if wishes were horses. Fine then, even if the child was Ahmed\'s, he would like to know and hang out with him. After all, the child still shared Emily\'s gene and he wouldn\'t want to hurt her.

"Once they arrive, make sure they don\'t log into a hotel. Give them free accommodation in the palace, find the best room. Secondly, take off all my pictures from the walls in the palace except the restricted room - she wouldn\'t be able to go in there. If the queen asks, make up one of your wonderful lies, " Was his strict instruction.

Archie\'s mouth twitched, he had to take that as a compliment.

"If I might ask my prince, why don\'t you want her to know about you when it\'s clear you want her to see you," The assistant asked out of curiosity

Kai answered, "She thinks I\'m dead. I don\'t want her to faint from shock when she eventually sees me. I\'ll expose the truth to her slowly during her week-long stay,"
