My Sister-In-Law Is My Mate!?!

"What if I ask you if he will give you a chance? Or what if I ask that he will choose you as his consort even if it was a concubine! After all, you will still be the queen!

Then would you still be so angry with me as you are now? Tell me sister! What shall I ask for?" 

Amelia looked at hazel with confusion. She didn't know what Hazel was planning but one thing was for sure! Hazel would not ask for her happiness!

She had hated hazel all her life but never showed it. If it would have been the past, she would have thought that Hazel wanted her happiness. But when she tried to kill her, she had already shown her true face to hazel. Why would she still think about it!

But she could not deny that her offer was too tempting. She would not have been so desperate before but the way Jonathan had behaved just a while ago, she would do anything to get rid of him and marry the crown prince.

He was the only one that could ensure her safety and she could take revenge from Jonathan and others.

"Why will you do that? Others may believe in your act, but I can not!" Amelia decided to cut to the chase as she looked straight into the eyes of Hazel who chuckled. But her voice was cold and eerie.

"You are right sister, everything has a price! If you want me to help you, you have to pay the price too!" Hazel shrugged her soldiers as she walked past Amelia towards the door. 

She had thought, just like her father, Amelia would pounce on the offer the moment she would hear about it. But Amelia did not reply, she stood there silently evaluating if she would trust hazel or not! Her nails dug deep into her skin to keep her sanity.

Hazel's hands held the knob of the door and opened the door once again but before walking out, she turned her head back and looked at Amelia, with a smile on  her face, 

"Make your decision before I find any other interesting thing to ask for! Then you will lose your single chance to be the queen!" Without waiting for Amelia to reply, she turned and left the room.

She was sure that she had sown the seed of anxiety in the heart of Amelia. Soon, the tree would grow and she would not be able to sit still.

With a smile, she walked back to her seat when she saw that Richard and Ranold were still talking to each other.

There was a frown on the face of Richard while Ranold looked tense too and she pursued her lips. She did not know if she should go and disturb them or not?!

After all, if they wanted to include her, they would have talked right here but they decided to walk away.

"Your eyes were looking at him as if he was a suspicious enemy, not your newly wedded husband. If i did not know any better, i would have thought that you are making a plan to murder him!" Hazel's head snapped back to the side when she heard Eli's chuckle.

She had a glass of wine in her hands as she was looking at hazel with amusement, 

"My lady, I did not realize your presence. I apologize for my insolence!" Hazel bowed her head with a small smile on her face.

"That is fine. I could see that you are busy staring at your husband!" Eli waved her hands in the air but then looked at the hazel as if she was expecting more from her which confused hazel. 

She didn't even know why they were talking in the first place. After all, their first conversation was not worth mentioning.

"Do you need my assistance in something, my lady?" she asked as she was not sure how to talk to her further. It did not look like she recognized Richard or her in the market. So there would be no way that she would be interested in any of them.

"I met with lord jonathan just a while ago, lady hazel. He told me a few interesting things about you.

Like how you enjoy reading and dancing sloppily. You do not have any interest in socializing and you feel awkward while talking to strangers.

He even told you how embarrassed you are when someone praises you suddenly!" she continued as she looked at the changing expression on the face of hazel and a deep smirk formed on her lips.

"But now that I look at you, I did not find any similarity between you and the hazel he described from his memories!" she was sure that it would be enough for scaring hazel.

All she wanted was to scare her and force her to spill the truth. If she decided to back away from the marriage, it would be annulled and then Jonathan could have her and she would try to court the man. 

This was the first time any man had sparked her interest, she did not want to let him go that easily. Since his brother was still trying too hard to flatter the man, she was sure that he would not mind if she was the second wife of Richard if she was the only wife of the man!

With that thought, she decided to talk about Jonathan a bit more until the girl was fearful.

But instead of fear, a cold smirk formed on the face of Hazel as she looked at Eli as if she was a fool.

"As you can see, my lady. I am not the one you are talking about!

Or the man you are referring to, did not know me at all. 

If you are really interested in knowing more about me, you should ask questions to either me or my husband, Richard. 

He would tell you what I really am!"
