Heaven Alizah Dianne's pov :
"Miss, do you have a problem with the way we hold our sister?" Said my brothers with deathly stare, that made Samantha flinched. Angel chuckled.
"Of course not cuties, l don't know about the others but l don't have a problem with it. My brother also did the same thing when Hiro came to take me with him back then" said Angel. Eugene cleared his throat and Hiro chuckled.
"But don't worry, l can assure you that your sister is in good hands", that made my brothers smile a bit. They let go of my hand and hugged me. "Be careful in there. We won't be able to come and watch your fight with other competitors, but we'll be cheering you on from here".
"A fight, with who?" I asked.
"After the announcement, you will be challenged by other girls who has interest in becoming the queen and battle with them. If you win, then you will be the queen" said Stephenie. Oh l forgot about that.
"Don't even think that you will win. You better watch out, because l will make you pay for humiliating me before. I will never submit to an ordinary maid" said Samantha.
That was a wrong move, because that made my brothers really upset. I quickly hold their hands and signed for them to calm down. But before l knew it their eyes changed into their original form. A pair of glowing deep purple eyes, the eyes of a tribid . They walked up to Samantha.
"Look miss, we don't care what the hell is your problem. You can participate in the contest for all we care. But never in your life should you speak of our sister in such a manner" they said in a calm yet dangerous tone. Samantha moved back unknowingly, she was frightened. Everyone was surprised to see how scary they can be.
"Now boys, calm down. The king is here, displaying such altitude in front of him is disrespect" said Lucas. My brothers moved back from Samantha and bowed slightly to the king. "Apologies my king" they said unison. The king nodded.
"You think merely apologizing will make up for the insult you gave me just now?" Samantha growled.
"Who said they are apologizing to you?. Don't be full of yourself. I'm sorry but l didn't train them to be weaklings in front of anyone" l said.
"You.." before she could finish her sentence Eugene cut her off.
"That's enough" he growled. And everyone became silent . "Let's get going" he said.
My brothers pulled me into tight hug again, "take care of yourself and be a good queen" they whispered. "You guys should take care of yourself too. Don't get into any trouble okay. And have a safe journey" l said.
"Shouldn't you guys be through with that by now" Eugene said impatiently. "Calm down brother" said Angel. Everyone are already the cars except me and Eugene. I ignored him and hugged my brothers one last time, before entering the car.
Eugene sat in the driver's seat, it made me wonder why is he the one driving. "I'll be driving. Come and seat beside me" he said.
"Is that necessary?" I asked. He raised an eyebrow. "You are a very strange girl. Other girls will jump to seat beside me without me asking them, and here you are asking me if it is necessary"
He is so full of himself. Does he expect me to be like Samantha. Well not a chance. I don't give a fuck whether he is the king.
"I'm not other girls" l said simply. "Yes you are not" he smirked and gestured to me to come and seat beside him. I am not in favor of this but I don't want to argue with him, so l just did as he wants.
Then we drove to the palace. My brothers and l waved at each other until they were out of sight. I'm really gonna miss those boys. Actually, one of the reasons why l accepted the contract, is that l want to leave their protection and learn to stand on my own feet. I've been with them for so long, that life without them seemed impossible. As the supreme queen, l need to learn how to be independent and strong because my toughest trials are yet to begin.
"How are you doing?" Eugene asked, pulling out of my thoughts. I looked at him. "I'm doing alright" l said simply. "Why do you ask?" I asked after a long while of silence. "Just asking" he said simply. We fell silent after that.
I remembered Lucas saying that we are going to perform a ritual before the announcement. Why hasn't Eugene explained it to me?. I guess l would have to ask him.
"Lucas said we have to perform a ritual before the announcement" l began.
"Yes".
"So what's the ritual all about?" I asked.
"The king and queen are connected to the people spiritually. Once the queen is crowned, she will be connected to the people spiritually. But since you are not the real queen, that won't happen. So a particular ritual has to be performed, it will make it as if you are the real queen. And you will be connected to the people spiritually. And have also have the scent of a queen" he explained.
"And l'm guessing that some kind of manipulation spell will be placed around the world too, right?. So that when you find your mate nobody will be suspicious." I asked.
"You guessed right" he replied. I nodded.
"Last question, isn't there supposed to be contract that l'm supposed to sign?".
"Yes, there is", he pulled over and brought out a paper and pen.
The others didn't wait for us. He gave me the paper and pen, "sign it" he said like he own the air l breathe. But l took my time and read the contract. "Didn't you hear what l just said?, Just sign it" he said impatiently. I looked at him and gave him 'what the heck is your problem' look. He frowned, "don't look at me like that" he said coldly.
But that didn't make me stop. "I'm sorry your majesty, but just because you are the king doesn't mean l won't read the contract you give me throughly first." I said. He made deep sigh , trying to keep himself calm eh?. Well it doesn't matter. I continued to read the contract. Everything in it is just like what we had discussed.
Now l can sign it. I signed it and he smiled
