The Author's POV.
Stefan went straight to his room. He took off his clothes and entered the bathroom.
The discussion he had with his mother really upset him. She did not care about his happiness. Even Lincoln played with his emotion.
Since they took advantage of him, he was going to do same to them. If the king of Red Valley comes to know the truth about the treasure, he won't spare them.
For him and Angelina to be together, he would take the necessary steps by also demanding something in return. If Queen mother Daria agrees to get them married, her secret will be safe with him but if she doesn't…
There was no way his mother was not going to agree to his terms.
Stefan sat in the bathing bowl. The weather was hot and the cold water cooled the temperature of his body.
When he was through with bathing, Stefan grabbed a towel and tied around his waist.
