Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince

Chapter 47 - Loss Her Head.

Prince Elliott quarter.

"Your highness, I think it time we follow plan B," Princess Diana said.

"What are you saying?" Prince Elliott asked. He was not looking at her and had zero interest in what she had to say. He had only agreed to the said plan B, because he wanted her to have something to hold on to.

"You promised that you would support the crown prince if your brother's plans failed. This is the time to move or we get destroyed with him," Princess Diana said.

"Hmm, I am not a coward, I can't just change because you tell me to. Explain why you have come to this conclusion," prince Elliott asked. When he first found out about his marriage to a princess from Teit he hated it because he wanted to choose his wife.

Unfortunately, if he wanted to remain a prince he needed to obey his father, so he married her. After the marriage, he had ignored her and did not treat her well but this changed after she smartly saved his life once.

A few months back, Julia had asked him to accompany him to a brothel. Well, it was a known fact that Julia was handsome and a lot of ladies wanted him, but the latter could not marry another wife because he had married the daughter of General Thompson.

He promised the general to treat his daughter well and in exchange, the man will help him defeat his brother, so the throne will become his.

So Elliott had followed him, they had gotten really drunk and merry or so Elliott thought. When they returned to the palace it was already late at night. Unknown to them the king had asked the entire family to come to the meeting hall in the palace.

That day the king was in a bad mood, the soldiers of Boaza were gaining more ground and they had killed a huge number of Avalo's men. The crown princes did not go to war at that time since he was taking care of some business in the four great king's kingdoms.

The news has gotten to the king that day and so he was angry. According to his father's principle, a member of the royal family should not be seen in a brothel drinking and Merry when the kingdom was at war. But he never paid attention because Avalo always wins the war they fought in except this one.

Who would have expected a piece of bad news such as this? So when he arrived at his father's presence drunk he could already feel a knife on his neck.

Their father was a strong man and losing a son would not be a problem to him.

"How dare you?" the king roared. Julia was not drunk after all he has only gone to meet his lover there and just brought him as a cover-up.

The King was so angry that he could kill someone. He had warned his sons not to go out drinking during the war but they will not listen. He hates this because while the crown prince was making his name and making kingdoms fear him, his other sons were visiting the brothel. This annoys him because he had planned to hand over his thrown to one of them. Julia or Elliott. To Elliott's surprise, Julia who has invited him out was not drunk. He concluded that day that Julia has deliberately tricked him to discredit him before the king. Elliott felt tongue-tied, he did not know what to say in defense of himself.

"Tell me why on earth I should let you stay alive and continue to disagree me this way?" the king asked. Everyone in the room was shocked at this king's words but they knew he was not joking.

The King looked at him and Elliott could feel himself trembling in fear. Just when he thought the king will punish him since he could not think of what to say. He was scared of saying something that would annoy the king more.

"Your majesty," princess Diana bowed getting up from her seat. Tears were seen running down her cheek as if she was hurt and in pain.

"Please forgive my husband this once, he got carried away. Drunk in his own sorrow that he forgot he was a prince and the kingdom should be his top priority," Princess Diana said in a week voice.

Elliott was dumbfounded he did not know what she was talking about but he could see she managed to get the king's attention. Of in a course in a situation of life and death Elliott sober.

"His own sorrow, what do you mean?" The king demand.

Princess Diana held on to her stomach and cried. She looked so pitiful as she looked at the king. She looks like someone that was morning and with the way she held her stomach, everyone came to a conclusion.

"It okay," King Rodrik said feeling the pain of the woman. Although he expected his son to handle situations like that more maturely he still chooses to overlook his son's behavior. Of course, he knew she lied, after all, he never touch her since she arrived, but that saved his life. So he treated her better since then.

Maybe his father would not have killed him but he would not have gone untouched with how angry his father was. So since then, he decided to listen to her.

After all, she was the one that made her understand that Julia might have set him up. He believed this since his brother was not drunk and he was the only one his father's outrage was targeted at.

" what will happen if lady Catherine loss her head?" prince Diana asked.

"What are you talking about?" Elliott frowns his brows. He was not supporting Julia because he trusted his brother. He had his plans. Once Julia managed to get rid of the Crown Prince then he would deal with Julia and get the throne but siding with the crown prince will mean giving up on the throne entirely.

Princess Diana explain what had happened when they visited princess Ellen but just like lady Vera and Catherine he thought that nothing would happen.

After all, it was already late at night and he heard nothing about The princess going to the king or reporting the incident.

So he told Princess Diana to forget about her fear before leaving her chamber. But Princess Diana did not listen to him. She sent her trusted maid that accompanies her from Tiet to send a note to princess Ellen.
