The Ordained Heir

Chapter Five

A grand master? And heir? Alexander was still surprised at how much he'd forgotten his childhood days. Vague memories sometimes left him confused at night, he'd been too young to recall everything but he could remember Pa Harry as clearly as he did his parent's faces.

"What happened that night? What happened to my parents?" He asked, the one thing he'd asked himself for many years years without any answer.

The old butler sighed and shook his head, "It is an ugly memory even I do not want to relive, please, don't ruin a pleasant day with it, all you need to know is that you're safe now and the empire needs you," the old man said, excitement clearly on his face. Just then, he pulled out a golden token, much like what the guards had demanded at that entrance of the estate. "Here's the supreme royal token, it will get you whatever you want," he explained.

Alexander took it, it was heavy and clearly looked like it had been crafted out of a pure good bar. Just then, his phone vibrated and he pulled it out of his pocket. Looking at the screen, he gasped, he had just received an alert of $100 million. "How?" He asked the old man with wide eyes.

"That's for your minor expenditure, young master, don't worry, once the Sean empire fortune is unlocked, this will be a tip for the servants," he said apologetically. But Alexander was overwhelmed. He'd never seen such money in his life, much more in his own possession. He nodded slowly.

"Let me have your room ready, young master," Harry said and made to walk away but Alexander stopped him. It was all too sudden, he needed time to take it all in. After all, he hadn't been at the Sean mansion for two decades, he couldn't think of sleeping there, not yet.

"I need some time to take this all in," he said, and Harry nodded in understanding, "Plus, I have some unfinished business before I am ready to take my place."

"Whatever you want, young master, we will be ready to receive you, please don't take too long," he said and bowed as Alexander promised to return soon and then left the estate.

Harry gave Alexander one of the Bentley's to take him anywhere he wanted and he was also assigned two guards and one driver to him. One of the guards suggested that they lodge at the best hotel in the city for the night. They arrived at the Continental Hotel, it was the biggest hotel in the city and only the rich and famous lodged there.

Alexander needed a place to clear his head, a place to think and figure out the next phase of his life. The guard opened the door for him and he walked into the hotel lobby. He went directly to the receptionist. She had a nasty look on her face as she looked at his plain clothes and ssid, "Deliveries aren't allowed in this hotel, you'll have to leave your package with the doorman."

The guard behind him clenched his teeth and wanted to teach her a lesson for disrespecting his master but Alexander held him back. "I'm not here to make a delivery, I'm booking for ghs night," he said.

The receptionist laughed, she rolled her eyes and asked him sarcastically, "Let me guess, the top floor?" And as Alexander nodded, she laughed harder. "You're a pathetic liar, no one but the supreme royal families get on the top floor," she snapped and then pointed at the exit, "Get out of here before I call the security to throw you out!"

"Isn't that your loser ex?" Alexander heard someone say from behind him and he turned. It was Fiona and her new toy. Fiona's eyes narrowed as she saw him. "Are you following me?" She asked angrily.

"I bet he is, what else would he be looking for in the Continental Hotel? This ain't place for men of his...category," the man beside her mocked.

Fiona pulled out her phone immediately and called the manager of the place, "There's a loser here that is making a scene at the reception, come at once and have your men throw him out else I'll leave!" The manager begged her and promised to be down in a minute.

"I told you to leave, now you've gotten in trouble, you loser," the receptionist said, laughing at him. Fiona crossed her hands, knowing that the manager would give Alex what he deserved.

Shortly, the manager came down to the lobby and asked what the matter was. "He's following me and posing to book a room," Fiona said and her new lover, Sam agreed.

"What do you want, sir? You can't disturb my prestigious clients or I'll have to throw you out!" The manager snapped. Alexander remained calm and asked why Fiona and Sam were there.

"I decided to take her to a nice place and spoil her, something you've never been able to do," Sam replied condescendingly. The manager added, "They've booked the exclusive restaurant for the night, you can't make them upset!"

"I want that reservation canceled and the restaurant serving only me for the entire week, also, I want the grand suite on the top floor," Alexander said.

The manager stared at him like he'd grown a second head. "Are you insane? Did you drink before coming here? Only the Supreme royals can make such demands, how dare you try to prank us!" He snapped and called the guards to take Alexander out.

Two men immediately matched to the scene and Fiona laughed heartily, "That's what you deserve for trying to ruin my evening," she spat.

One of the men tried to hold Alex but his guard stopped them and right then, Alexander nodded at the guard beside him who pulled out the token and handed it to the manager. The man gasped, his eyes widening in shock as he got on his knees and bowed, his hands shaking.

"I'm so sorry, grand master, pardon my mistake," he begged.

Everyone was shocked.
