Chapter 80 - Alina's Voice

"Where were you Lilith?" the queen asked.

"She was with me, is there a problem?" the king asked and the queen swallowed deeply. 

"You and I need to talk" the queen responded and the king smiled wickedly as he placed his and around the queen's waist. 

"For now let's attend to our guests," he said. 

'What's up with him?" Marlene asked. 

"He is putting up a fictitious side that's what's up, he is making everyone believe he is the perfect king, perfect father, perfect husband" Cosmo responded.   

"I see another charade," Jasmine said with a frown. 

"You guys really need to pull yourself together or you will get killed, he won't spare a soul so if I were you I would be careful," Lilith replied. 

"I am sure we will be fine, no need to take advice from someone who is not in their right mind," Cosmo said and Lilith laughed as she looked at her. 

"You have a lot of gut talking back to me like that Cosmo..." she replied. 

"You gave me that right or did you forget?" Cosmo asked. 

"No I didn't forget but I do regret having you here" she responded and Cosmo's eyes widened. 

"What is wrong with you?" Cosmo asked and Lilith kissed her on the cheek then winked at her and walked away as Cosmo left staring at her with her cheeks red. 

"I really do need to get my head out of the clouds," Cosmo said to herself with a frown. 

"I am going to eat dinner, I feel clustered here," Vivian said then walked away with a frown and Cosmo sighed. 

"I might not be able to stop the wedding but I will probably be able to figure out what's wrong with that girl... I just need to try harder to get through to her" Cosmo said to herself as she went to the table and grabbed a glass of wine. 

"Alina... I am sorry" Cosmo said to herself as she looked at her reflection on the glass. 

"You betrayed me, Cosmo," someone said and Cosmo's eyes trembled. 

"Are you here?" Cosmo asked. 

"You choose her over me... after all, we went through yet you choose her, what's so special about her Cosmo?" the person asked.

Cosmo's ex was no guy, there was no ex-boyfriend, her ex was no other than her childhood best friend a girl by the name of Alina, the woman from earlier was just teasing Cosmo for she knew that Cosmo was feeling guilty for what she did in the past and as for her brother he called Alina a guy because he didn't want anyone to find out anything about what happened back then. 

'Alina she is far better than you and I am not afraid of saying that, I could even tell you that to your face" Cosmo mumbled and Alina started laughing. 

"SO much that you were willing to kill me? how will this work when you called me a guy just because you were afraid that people would see you as a freak for being in love with a girl, will you refer to her as a guy too?" Alina asked and Cosmo smiled. 

'I won't need to because now everyone knows that I can never love a guy and I am not ashamed of that" she responded. 

"By the way Alina why can't you show yourself?" Cosmo asked. 

"I see the princess" the girl responded and Cosmo's eyes widened then she looked at Lilith talking to a few royals and she swallowed deeply. 

"I never loved you and if you hurt her, I will make sure you regret it for the rest of your miserable life," Cosmo said in anger. 

"I know you never loved me which makes this a lot better, I will hurt someone you truly love" Alina replied and Cosmo folded her cuffs as she walked to Lilith. 

"Your highness," Cosmo said and Lilith looked at her. 

'What's the matter?" Lilith asked. 

"You... uh... never mind" Cosmo responded and Lilith grabbed her by the arm and pulled her towards her. 

'I hate it when people do that, it's pretty clear that something is bothering you" Lilith said. 

"You can tell that?" Cosmo asked and Lilith's eyes widened as her father looked at her. 

"Ouch!" Lilith exclaimed and Cosmo looked at her as the princess held onto her head. 

"Are you okay?" Cosmo asked and Lilith looked at her sternly. 

"I am fine, what do you want anyway?" Lilith asked. 

"Why are you being like this?" Cosmo asked and Lilith smiled wickedly. 

"What? don't you like me when I am like this?" Lilith asked.   

"No I don't" she responded and the princess grabbed her by the chin and her eyes trembled. 

"Like I care, I will tell you this, stay away from me and you won't get hurt, unlike last time I will not hesitate to get rid of you," Lilith said then shoved the girl aside and walked away. 

"She hates the best bone in your body, now what better punishment than having the one you love to hate you, you and I will be meeting very soon Cosmo," Alina said and Cosmo frowned. 

"Rex I hope you take care of Alina if you find her" Cosmo said to herself.   

"Cosmo, come and join us for dinner," Jasmine said as she walked up to Cosmo and saw tears in her eyes. 

"Are you okay?" Jasmine asked. 

"Yeah I am fine, thanks" Cosmo responded as Ash came to them. 

'What's wrong? was she being mean?" Ash asked as he placed his arm around Cosmo's shoulder and she sighed. 

"It's not her fault, oh and I think Lilith's in pain" she responded. 

"In pain?" Ash asked. 

'Yeah, she was holding onto her head a lot....."  Cosmo responded as she started to see double. 

"Let's go have dinner," Jasmine said as she grabbed onto Cosmo and they went to have dinner in the living room separate from everyone else. 

"Father my head is really aching me" Lilith said as she went to her father and he smiled then patted her on the head.
