To say that I was shocked would be an understatement. I have always thought that he was lazy and a wastrel. I have never even seen him attending the classes regularly and he did not give a single correct reply to the questions asked to him.
Though not clearly, I still have a hazy memory of him wasting all his life in a brothel and then dying a gruesome death. Though no one knew who killed him, I was sure it was Gerard since he was the one who usurped the throne after his death.
I continued to look at him with mixed emotions. The man standing in front of me did not look like the crown prince i met him in both lives, he was looking sharp, calculative and strong.
I was about to hear further when I heard footsteps behind me. I wanted to hide further but there was not much place to go. I tried to mingle in the dark, but it was too late. The man was already standing in front of me with his eyes narrowed on my face.
