Eugene's pov :
Samantha is really pissing me off.
It seems l have some apologizing to do. Thanks to that bitch, l've wronged my cousin. I'll deal with Samantha later, but right now l need to go and see my cousin.
I teleported myself to his house. Before l could knock on the door, he opened it. "Fancy seeing you here cousin" he smiled. "May l come in?" I said. "And why not, your majesty?" He said as he made way for me. As soon as l entered , Troy rushed to hug me. "Uncle, it's nice to see you. It's been a long time since you last visited us"
"I've been very busy, so l couldn't come to visit . I'm sorry" l said. Troy smiled, "Come and sit down". I sat down at the dinning room. "Where is your mom?' l asked.
"She went to visit queen mother". I nodded
"So what brings you here?" Sebastian asked as he poured me a cup of tea. " Does something have to be wrong before l can come to visit my own cousin" l asked. "So nothing is wrong?" He asked.
"Well l didn't say that. Troy leave me and your dad alone for a while. I need to speak to him privately." I said . And he did as I instructed.
"Is something wrong?" Sebastian asked.
"Nothing much. I came here to apologize to you"
"To me?, Why?". I sighed.
"Samantha just told me that you are her ex-mate. It is now that l understand why you loathed me back then. You must have thought that l knew about it didn't you?". He nodded , "l thought you knew about it because l thought that there is nothing that can escape your eyes. I'm sorry, l misunderstood you back then. Besides, she rejected me the moment we met, so l had no right over her or her actions. I guess l just wanted someone to blame, and l decided to blame you. I'm sorry" he said
"You shouldn't apologize, it was my fault for being careless and hurting you in the process. How could l?" I said.
"Come on man, it's all in the past now. I've moved on. See l've found the love of my life and we had Troy. It's all in the past, lets forget about it" he said.
"You are amazing, cousin", we both laughed. "Since when did you learn to compliment?" he said.
We chatted till his mate came back. Even she was surprised to see me in their house. Has it really been that long since l last came here?, I guess it has. "Your majesty, To what do we owe your visit?" Said Anna. "I just came here to check on you guys. Anna have you been keeping well?" I asked. She smiled and held Sebastian's hand. "I see you have " l said . "Like l always say, a life of harmony is all l require. And l have it" she said. "Well I'm happy for you two. It's getting late, l should get going now" l said as stood up. " Won't you have dinner with us?. Come on bestie, stay" she said. Anna and l are childhood best friends. Although we are not as close as we used to be, she still holds a special place in my heart. "Okay then" l said. And she beamed, "Don't change your mind. I'm going to prepare dinner now" she said before running to the kitchen. I smiled while her mate chuckled. After a while, dinner was ready, and we all ate together. The dinner was very lively as Sebastian and Anna kept talking about our childhood memories.
After the dinner l bid them goodbye and went back to the palace. I found Lucas in my study. He is reading some of the paper works on my table. He looked when he noticed my presence. "I know it's none of my business where you go. But please don't tell me you were with Samantha" he said. I almost laughed. "Alright, then l won't tell you" l said and sat down. He stared at me for a long while.
" Relax, l had dinner with Sebastian and his family. Is that wrong of me now?"
He sighed of relief, "I'm sorry, l didn't mean to sound offensive ".
"Whatever" l scoffed.
"Heaven requested that she stays with her brothers for two days and you granted it" he began. I know he was going to bring that up. "What do you want to say exactly?" I said calmly.
"Your father wants us announce the news in three days. But now that you've allowed her to stay away for two days out of the three days, we don't have enough time to perform the ritual" he said. He made a good point. I have only six days left before the elders dethrone me. But l've already granted that she can stay with her brothers for two days, l can't take it back. "Well looks like we are going to defy my father a bit" l said. "Eugene, we have only six days left" he said.
"I know but l can't take back what l said. Let's wait. After two days we will bring her here ourselves" l said. "Yes, we will bring her here ourselves." He said.
