I walked with him briskly to the tarven in silence,he had a worried look on his face and I couldn't help but feel
" is anything wrong?"
" It could be...it depends on how you handle the situation" what does this have to do with me..his lips were immediately sealed,his cold aura shut me up as well. Tarius as always been cold and aloof scaring all the girls away. We both entered the tarven which was sparkling clean,a woman mixing drink and with a familiar scent.. it's Vera!
" Vera... you...!" I was utterly clueless on what to say.. I looked at Tarius and all he gave me was a smirk.. that bastard!
"Sit down... let's drink and not waste it!" Her face was still beautiful..she stepped out and hugged me. I immediately began to thank the heavens for giving me a happy day today and a day to remember our time together. I could feel her round shaped breast on my cheast... by the time I opt to hug her tight she let go..
" How are you?" Her simple smile really melt me..it was now again I realized how much I really loved her. How long as she been on my mind...she never left!! Tarius annoying cough broke my thoughts and we sat to listen to each other with wine stepping it down.
*****************
" Hey Cedric.. let's play a game of twenty questions!"
" Am not interested in your silly game Vera..!"
"I thought am your friend... can't you just answer a simple question..? "
" Fine... I'll play your silly old game..."
" Cedric!!!!.... it's not old you baffon "
" Don't cry...do your thing!"
" Do you plan on getting married after all this..? Or you prefer to be a silly old ugly king?" She begin to laugh at her question
" Brat...of course I'll get married!" He laughed as well
" Oh...who do you have in mind?"
" She's someone you know...!"
" Fiona??". " No way... she's too cheap. It's you silly "
" You want to marry me...?"...no way... keep your paws off me!" Her resistance annoys him and it was as well surprising
" Why...?" " Because I am with Zuma.. I like him and once he's done with his mission he'll come for me!' pain and jealousy consumed his heart
" Your father is against it...". " That doesn't mean... I'll run away with him. I promise to be the best wife and keep loving him everyday"
It was so awkward between them as it is right now... breeze was still and it look like it's getting hot " don't dare tell my father or else I'll tell them you're a prince or a King... whatever!!"
" Don't dare threaten me Vera!!!"
" I can and I will... you don't know what love is because you're just chasing all the girls away. I'll find you a nice girl that you'll definitely like!"
" Vera.. I love you... don't you see that...?". " I can't..all I see is Zuma and nothing more. Just find someone else Cedric"
Cedric felt like his heart was plucked out heartlessly... Vera didn't bother,she just left him to wonder what went wrong for him to be rejected..was he too late? Didn't she realized the amount of influence and power she'll have if she had him by her side unlike that simpleton.
Like this heartbeat wasn't enough...she intentionally brought the girls to his side...what a joke
" You love Vera but she doesn't love you... just give up!"
" Get out Fiona..." " I know how you feel...let me make you forget her... she's not worth it!"...
Anger rose within Cedric and he pinned her neck down to the bed... "Yes...take me Cedric...am all yours"
" Disgusting!!" He pulled her up and took her to Vera like a dead animal form hunt and throw her like garbage
" I've had enough of all these nonsense...all you people can do is play with someone's feeling. Am out of here!!"
He made up his mind to go back to his people,the mission is over,he doesn't belong here anymore..
" Cedric.... where are you going?" Vera asked seeing him pack his belongings " Back to where i belong... you don't need me here. Zuma will come for you... happy life ahead!" He walked out and didn't let her say anything before he dashed into the woods going back to his kingdom to be crowned king
"Now he's gone...hope you're happy Vera..?"
" Father... I didn't want it to end like that!"
" Yes it already did... but let me remind you... I won't let you be with that man. You either have to kill me or else I won't give you my blessings"
" Father... Zuma is as good as Cedric...!!!"
" Stupid child!"
