59 Disclosing Identities! (1/2)
”Reporters you say, but I do not see your camera with you.” The man said smirking at Alyssa. Her lies were bare in front of him. As if realizing something he looked straight into Alyssa's and Jake's eyes and said, ”Are you here to tamper the crime scene? Are you with the criminal?” The man questioned harshly.
He gave one screening look at Jake. He was finding Jake very familiar, as if he had encountered him somewhere previously. And this raised a red flag in the man's brain.
'What if he was a criminal he had encountered earlier? Or what if he is a spy in disguise? Several thoughts passed through his brain.
Alyssa had done a light makeup on Jake because she was confident that no one will catch him and nobody in the Coral Bells knows him. He was in this place for a limited time and will go back to his country. But this is where she made a mistake. She shouldn't have taken Jake's identity so casually.
The man's eyes widened upon recognition. His real face and the makeup face overlapped with each other, displaying Jake's real identity.
”Prince Sebastian Albert Collins of Westeros.” The man said, recognizing the vampire in front of him.
”What are you doing here? You said you were coming here a week ago but I wasn't able to contact you after that. How are you here?” The man asked Jake or Prince Sebastian pointing at Alyssa.
”Things happened on the way. I will tell you everything in detail later.” Jake said to the man.
From their way of speaking it was clear that they know each other and were acquaintance.
”Who is this person? The man asked pointing at Alyssa.
”He is someone I met later. He was helping me to find the killer.” Jake introduced Alyssa who was dressed like a man.
”How? What work does he do?” The man asked Jake. He was suspicious of Alyssa's identity. He doesn't look like a normal person if he gets his hands on the fake identity card of the Royal Investigation Bureau.
”I think he is a hacker,” Jake explained Alyssa's profession.
”Every hacker in Coral Bells is listed and their identities are documented. I have never seen him. Is he a criminal?” The man said suspiciously, frowning at Alyssa.
”Maybe. He was hiding in a ruined place when I first met him.” Jake answered honestly. He was still cross at Alyssa for poisoning him. Plus, he knew how dangerous Alyssa can be. It was a matter of the man's kingdom security. He would too expect people to tell him and warm him regarding any dangers that would happen to his kingdom, Westeros. He did what he thought was right to do.
Alyssa was still shocked knowing Jake's true identity. What the man had said later and the conversations between Sebastian and that man has completely bounced away from her head.
”Prince Sebastian.” Alyssa shrieked in her own voice when the fact sank in her brain.
”Alyssa?” the man asked recognizing Alyssa's voice.
”You know this criminal Xander.” Jake or Sebastian asked the man who was Alexander, Alyssa's cousin, pointing at Alyssa.
”Criminal? She is my sister. Princess Alyssa of Coral Bells.” Alexander said correcting him.
This was a piece of news to Sebastian too. never would he have imagined Alyssa to be a princess. He had never heard of her. the only person he knows was Violet.
”Sister? Isn't Violet your only sister?” Sebastian was confused.
”Violet is not my sister. I have only one sister and that is Alyssa.” Alexander said in determination.
Hearing about Violet left a bitter taste in Alyssa's mouth. But her eyes filled up when Alexander took her side. He was the only person in her family who considers her his family. Even for the outsiders, there is only one princess of Coral Bells and that is Violet.
”Yes, it's me,” Alyssa said confirming her identification.
”What are you doing here?” Alexander asked her.
