Chapter 6 - Her Sudden Visit (1/2)

The night arrived very soon.

The lamps were listed in the entire lobby of the palace and proper decoration was done for the two lords to come together and show their presence. Expected by others, for them to discuss the peace treaty and the entire marriage with patience.

King Vilas was currently standing in front of the magnifying mirror in his room, trying to adjust his clothing and the large clock around his body, where Dominic observed his father's delicate actions.

King Vilas and Prince Dominic got ready for tonight's feast. Standing in their palace, Dominic looked serious, ”I hope that there is no scheme in vampire words today.”

”You think that he will arrive here without a plan in his mind?” King Vilas didn't believe that Vampire's King would come without any scheme in his mind.

Dominic senses the same thing. But before leaving, both of them decided to show their faces at Alice's chamber before leaving for the entire night.

There was a knock on her door when she was in the process of eating her food which arrived just a few minutes ago from the royal kitchen that was specially making the food, just like for others.

Lifting her eyes, she looked confused ”Mary, please open the door.” Alice spoke politely to which Mary nodded and opened the door of the chamber when she bowed, ”My Lord.”

Hearing her words, Alice immediately kept her spoon down and stood on her toes, greeting her father with bowed head. ”I wasn't expecting you to arrive here… Weren't you both supposed to have the feast alongside the others?”

Alice was steadily surprised by their sudden visit to her chamber. Although her days were going as always boredom, a faint smile curled on her face when she stood with calmness.

”We thought why not to see our Princess first. I hope you are already comfortable here. Am I right?” Prince Dominic halfly jokes, in rep9nse all she did was to pass him an assured smile.

Shifting her attention back to her father, Alice answered with an anxiousness visible in her pretty eyes. ”I hope you will watch your stepfather. Please…”

Seeing the fear of the unknown in Alice's eyes, King Vilas stepped ahead and tapped her shoulder lightly. As a child, it was evident for his children to have worry about his life since he has too many enemies who are craving for his head.

”I will… you don't have to worry about the same..” with this as the last words, King Vilas and Prince Dominic left her alone in the room along with Mary.

Despite her father's speech and assured words, it made her wonder if things will go smoothly? Moreover, Flora isn't the one who will agree without creating chaos.

Internally her mind was undergoing a battle. Was she on the path which she is meant to be hers?

Seeing her worry and restless mind, Mary sounded worried, ”Princess, you should have your dinner now. It was a long day. You should have a good sleep.”

Mary's concern was genuine. Since the last day, she did her best to ignore deeper feelings but many times it was out of control. Looking at the food from the corner of her eyes, she sat once again on the chair.
