"You may leave." She said to the guard and then turned to the little Boy.
"Please get up, go to your mother, His Highness isn't angry with Your father anymore okay?." She touched his face and immediately he ran to meet his mother.
"Thank You Your Highness, if not for you today His Highness would've had my head cut off right before the eyes of my Wife." He knelt before her.
"You may leave now, it's all okay." She turned around and left to the garden, she knew she couldn't just speak to Lorcan now that he was in a bad mood. She only went to see him once it was evening
*******
She walked into the room to see Lorcan pacing back and forth with his arms at his back, he stopped and looked at her as she walked in.
"Your Highness I.."
"Not another word Reina." He placed his fore finger on his lips asking her to be quiet, she didn't know why but her heart started racing. She had never seen him this angry with her before.
"Why do you always go against my orders Reina?, why do you always want to win in everything Reina?, how long would you keep on disrespecting me in front of the Palace servants?."
Reina lowered her gaze as she didn't know what to say.
"You do things your way all because you know I care about you and your opinion matter to me. Do you have any idea of what he did?." He asked with his eyes not leaving her face.
"Answer me Reina!." He yelled and for a moment she felt her body vibrate, this was the first time he spoke to her in this tone.
She just didn't know what exactly made him mad.
"N..no." She couldn't look at his face right now so she avoided his gaze.
"I'll tell you, maybe you might be more angry with him than I was."
"Theodore is no where to be found, he escaped and it's all because of his carelessness, once again your life is in danger and yet you allowed him go free?."
"This isn't the first time you stopped me from punishing the servants for their wrongs. Your safety is what matters to me and nothing else. Now he's gone, we've got no idea of what he would plan to do next." He ran his fingers through his hair.
"You know all what we went through just to take Theodore down and we had him where we wanted him and now he's gone!, just like that!. We don't know when he'll strike, he would come after you, it's you he wants and I can't let him have you, not my Wife."
"I'm so angry with you, I'm so angry, I know you're kind hearted but what you did today was disrespectful Wife and I would not talk to you." She looked up at him with teary eyes and he turned his back at her as soon as he saw her tears.
His back was now facing her and she didn't know what to say, she didn't know what to say to calm him down.
"I'm sorry." She hugged him from behind placing her head at his back.
Lorcan just closed his eyes tight, he clenched his fists and slowly loosened it then he took a deep breath before he held hand her hand, taking it off of him.
"No Reina." He took her hands away from his waist and walked to the door, he didn't even for once look at her face.
He stopped. "You should go to bed, I won't be sleeping here tonight." He walked out of the room and she began to sob, she was holding her tears from falling all this while. She didn't like the way he behaved just now, this wasn't her husband.
She blamed herself for always coming in the way each time he punished the servants but she couldn't just let their heads be cut off all because His Highness wanted it to.
She left for the bathroom to bathe and some how she dozed of.
*********
"Where are you going so late Your Highness?." He heard a voice from behind as he stopped. He turned around to see that it was Matthew.
"Do you have any news yet?." He asked.
"Not yet Your Highness but we've found out the name of the guard that was sent to kidnap Her Highness." He bowed.
"Who is he?."
"His name is Michan but he already left the palace Your Highness."
"You should at least know where he lives."
"I'll make findings Your Highness." He bowed.
"Theodore has not been found yet, I don't want what happened to My Wife to ever repeat itself ever again and I had already made that promise to her. I don't know his next plan, all I want is The Princess Safety."
"No need to worry Your Highness, The King Of Agrah has agreed to let the armies stay here for sometime, so for now we are safe, he can't get into the palace." He halted.
"One more thing Your Highness, the votes are in and from my calculations your vote is the highest, the people want you as King and I believe Her Highness would want that to, if you want I could start making the arrangements for your coronation."
"I would have to think about that and hear from The Princess. How is she now?." Lorcan asked.
"Who Your Highness?." He asked.
"Your Wife, is she okay?."
"Yes, she's been delivered of a twin Your Highness." He smiled for joy.
"Congratulations, that's a big one." He smiled slightly.
"Thank You Your Majesty, I'll be on my way home, peace be with you." He bowed and left on his horse.
Lorcan stayed looking into the sky for hours, he wished he had killed him when he had the chance to. His fears was having his evil brother ever touch Reina, he wanted to kill him in the most painful way that ever existed but now he's no where to be found. He swore to make sure he found out who helped him leave the palace.
He went into the palace and walked pass the room, he wanted to go in to check on her but he didn't just want to talk to her.
