THE LOST PRINCE RETURN FOR VENGANCE

Chapter 7 The essential target

Wake up someone is here to see you, you can sleep for months without complaining I pity you, better wake up Benedict said jokingly taping Scandious back.

" Can't I sleep peacefully again? he questioned immediately?, why not tell him to come back am sleeping as you see Scandious muttered closing his eyes.

Get up from that bed Benedith said shaking his body.

He hissed getting up from his bed.

He heads straight to the sitting room with Benedith following him at the back.

Where is the person he asked climbing down the stairs, reaching there, they didn't see anybody. Where is the person who's looking for me he asked for the second time. Looking around the sitting room he discovered nobody is there.

Somebody was here when I left to call you, I can clearly remember is at this particular cushion he was sitting she said pointing at the exact place.

I can see you wanted to disturb my sleep which you have succeeded Scandious said heading back to his room.

"Am sure of what am saying she shouted following him back to his room.

Should I tell Daddy she asked herself?, that won't be necessary she shook her head negatively, am sure he will also not believe me as Scandaious did.

But am sure I left him in the to call Scandious which he even told me to be fast about it,

Does that mean the person came for a mission? it must be dangerous if it is.

No! No!, she shouted suddenly, I must tell Daddy and Scandious at the same time they might believe me and something bad might happen if care is not taken.

This is strange she thought knowing fully well she is not hallucinating".

Benedict kept trying to convince her family about the guy who visited them but suddenly left without any information. It was hard before they could bring themselves to believe her.

From now henceforth, we will be alert who knows what their intention is, and make sure all the doors are locked at an early hour, going out from 6 o'clock pm is prohibited he said referring to Benedith who frowned face on hearing that.

She knows this rule is not going to be easy, she likes leaving the doors unlock for free entry, as if her father knows he informed her earlier before it become late.

Is for our safety now the enemy is around he said trying to make her understand.

As expected, he is to inform the King concerning the place he was sent to investigate. Being the one he trusted, the king send him on the mission knowing he can handle it. On his way back home, he meet who he wasn't expecting to see in life.

It went successful but I saw somebody I didn't expect to see Thaius said to the king. Who? the King asked right away.

Can we talk somewhere better than here? Thus requested politely.

They walked to the inner chamber which is known as the secret passage of the palace. You can go ahead the king requested anxiously.

"I saw the dead prince today he said with his head bowed.

"What?!"

The king shouted, how can you see someone who died years ago? Maybe is a ghost you saw he stated not ready to believe him.

Thaius insisted, saying he was sure is the crown Prince he saw. Seeing how serious he is, the King became quiet staring at him. I thought you deserve to know as his Father before any other person, which is why I came to you Thaius added.

The first time I saw him I felt the spark but I didn't believe or pay attention to it. When I saw the moll at his back I didn't call it anything, knowing how long it have been since the Crown Prince died.

Yet I kept getting this feeling to something is strange about him.

I thought about it and I did some investigation, fortunately, it turns out to be him "the Crown Prince". I don't believe it at first, but after I dig into it to know if is him, I discovered is the Crown Prince though he doesn't know anything about himself.

I tried making him my friend but he kept pushing me away stating he don't want to see me close to him.

I know he's in danger especially now he lost his memory which is why I need your help. I want to protect him till everything is settled said Thaius.

That's a wise and good idea, I want you to secretly guild him and if you need my help, please don't hesitate to tell me the king said after a long silence".

"Thank you, my king, am grateful to have you as my king, I promise to do my best for his safety, and please, be careful in this palace I have this feeling that something is going on, trust no one and be at alert Thaius informed the king".

At the palace, the Queen is sitting in the garden waiting for her visitor.

"Quietly he walked in".

Excuse us the Queen told her maid, yes my Queen she replied and walked out giving them privacy.

Is it true she asked him Immediately, anxious to hear what the answer will be.

Yes is him he replied the Queen.

I didn't see his face, according to my investigation he survived but kept it hidden he replied, then how sure are you he's the one the Queen asked not ready to believe the Crown Prince is alive.

My Queen, I know what am saying, you should be thinking of a way to eliminate him the high-killer reminded her. I want you to go and finish your job, you understand what I mean by that she asked staring at him mischievously, yes my queen the high-killer replied.

One more thing, no mistake this time or you will have yourself to blame the Queen added furiously.

You have nothing to worry about, this is my work I know how to go about it he assured her. If we're done I will like to take my leave he announced.

The Queen contacted her accomplice who assured her he will send more warriors to assist the high-killer.

Getting assurance From him didn't stop the Queen from thinking about how to eliminate him if he will die this time, these thoughts occupied her mind.

"Will it be successful she asked panicking".

"Why can't he die once and for all she said feeling frustrated".

Calm down, it will go as planned her son tried to make her understand, father is not aware of it and you're here killing yourself over it, don't worry I will be the king nobody is taking it from me.

"My coronation will soon take place, then you will rule as it pleases you".

"You become the first woman to rule this great land".

Your the most beautiful woman any man can ever wish for, he said trying to calm her nerves down which he succeeded by making her laugh out loud.

Thank you son she said.

I don't know am this beautiful, now I will have to carry myself like the Queen I am knowing no woman is as beautiful as I am she added.

Am happy to have a handsome and wonderful son the queen said with happiness which the son laughed at her. Your so dramatic he voiced out.

I want to see father, I want to discuss something with him he informed his mother the Queen.

Hope no problem she inquired, not at all he replied.

Am busy the king replied dismissing his son. But you're not doing anything his son stated.

Don't talk back at me, am I still your father or I will be forced to punish you the king fired back with authority.

Knowing his father (King) as a man of his word he stopped immediately.

Forgive me, Father, he apologize, I wanted to be left alonthatat was all the King could utter, I will be back when You're free, I can see you're not in a good mood he said before walking away.

At night, the Queen dressed sexy, she sprayed her perfume which has a good fragrance on the nightgown she wearing.

Gently, she knocked at the door before she walked

My Queen what brought you here the king asked surprised at seeing her.

Can't I see my king anymore the Queen? I want to spend this night with you, don't you like it she asked staring at him seductively.

"I love it my 'beautiful Queen', come here the king said taping a space for her to occupy on the bed which she did by climbing the bed.

My king, when is our son's coronation ?, you know it has been years since the Crown Prince died, I know is not easy to forget about him, but the past is the past, we have to focus on the future.

"Who are we to question the gods"

The palace can't continue to be like this, do you want other people to snatch the throne from our family ?, we will always remember the Crown Prince who always makes us proud, but at the same time we need to move on.

please think about it she said with a sweet voice romancing the king's bare chest.

"Promise me you will coronate Prince Xavier your son in two weeks she muttered in a romantic voice romancing his lower region, the king produced a low sound, giving the queen a satisfactory looking".

I will do that he replied, then sign here and know that there's no going back on your words if you sign these documents the queen reminded him.

I know the king said in a hurry and sign the documents.

Thanks my king the Queen said with a smile.

After the hot romance, the queen left for her chamber while the king entered his bathroom smiling happily.

This is good, the Queen knows what I want he acknowledged entering his bathtub.

"I want you to meet this man, he will direct you on what to do", the king's brother instructs the warriors he selected to help the Queen's high-killers.

"Follow the address I gave you guys, I have already informed him he added before heading inside his room".

"He must die this time he muttered confidently".

Can you tell me what you know about the man in this picture?

looking at him, he looks like the king, Thaius asks his newfound friend who accommodated him after hearing about his mission which happens to be from the King.

Being a man who likes to fight for the weak, he decided to accommodate Thaius seeing how harmless he is. Moreover, he needs a companion since he has no family.

Are you sure you want to know who he is he asked Thaius who gave him the go-ahead order.

This man with the king is a biological brother and also a twin.

"He always distances himself from palace work giving one excuse or the other, a day came when their Father "the late King" called them to discuss the throne.

This man in this picture made it clear to the King (his Father) he doesn't want to have anything to do with the throne, he called the throne "prison".

The king wasn't happy with the idea knowing he was the first son, he loves him more than his brother which he doesn't hide, the king loved him because he always supports his doings whether good nor bad, is like you read my thought Thaius said, I know you're going to ask me why the man replied.

The king ( their father) called him on different occasions to see if he can change his mind, but he insisted on his decision.

Seeing he had made up his mind, he coronated his brother.

A few years later, the king died and he rosed up against his brother who never fail to respect him in all aspects.

He tried to destroy his brother in different ways which failed, then he left the palace to live in a deserted area where he can plot and carry out his plans against his brother who's the current king.

He's a wicked man but our King is a kind-hearted man which is why he's still alive despite all their wicked plans against him.

There's more to this Thaius said after hearing him out, that his brother might be the one behind all these things happening in the palace he muttered though he's not sure yet. Am inside the man informed heading in, then please close the door he added.
