Chapter 63 - Turmoil In The Royals

Meanwhile with the Princes,

"Brother what did we do...." Alfred the second prince said as he lat down on the king-sized bed.

"We just made a mess...." Alan the Crown price said as he massaged his temples.

"Hah, the winter siblings must be quite upset....especially Lady winter..." Alfred said as he tossed around the bed in frustration.

"I know....after all, we never treated her like this before...and we never hide anything from her..."Alan said with a regretful expression on his face.

" Yes....but maybe we used too many harsh words and even gave her a cold shoulder...now that I think of it...I feel like punching myself.." Alfred said as he clenched his fists.

"Don't do anything carelessly, or else the people will get another chance to talk...about the shitty life of the royal family," Alan said as he ruffled his perfectly combed white hair.

"Please don't make me remember it again....or else I...I might lose my calm." Alferd said as he covered his eyes with his hands.

"Oka...." Alan wasn't even able to complete hai sentence when suddenly heard a voice of a woman screaming.

"Here we go again..." Alfred said as he did from his seat. *Sigh* "Maybe we should kill them all." Alan said as he stood from his seat and went towards the place where the scream came from.

And it came no other than the emperor's room.

They opened the door and saw a young woman was sitting on the floor, her clothes were about to fall off her skin, "Take her out right now!" The Emperor said in a harsh tone as he rose from his seat and buttoned up his shirt and ruffled his hair.

"Dear Majesty, please don't push me away. I can make you feel good." The women said with greedy and lustful eyes.

Both the prince flinched as they walked towards that woman, "Just get out of here, your sight disgust me!' The Emperor said as he called at her.

But that woman didn't stop her act and kept trying to pester the emperor, " Didn't you hear what the emperor said." Alan said as he bought his sword near her thin neck.

"Or do you wish to die?" Alfred said as he signalled the knights to take her away.

"No! No! Please don't send me away, give me a chance to prove my worth!!! I can make the emperor feel better!!" She said as she struggled to get out of the knight's grip.

"Take her away from her this instant!!" The emperor said as he clenched his fists.

"No, please give me one more chance...I am WAY BETTER THEN THAT WITCH!!!" she screamed on top of her lungs, making everyone freeze in their steps.

The Princes glared at her and Alfred almost slither neck, "You who the hell are you calling a witch!!!" He said angrily. His aura almost made the woman choke but still, somehow she was standing straight.

"We...We all know...who the witch is...." The woman said with a sly smirk on her face.

"You....are very troublesome." The emperor said as he looked came near her. "Yes, you are truly way better than a witch but...I still prefer my saintness." The emperor said as he touched her cheeks.

"Saint. Hah, what a joke! Everyone knows she is just a witch who sold her soal to the devil!! Which is why she is dying like this now! SHE IS A WITCH A BLOODY WITCH!!!" She screamed on top of her lungs and with a snap, she collapsed on the ground. Blood started to flow from her neck.

Everyone was stunned by the sudden attack, "So noisy.." Alan said as he whipped the blood off his sword.

"Your Highness, you didn't kill her. Did you?" The knight asked as he looked at the woman's body.

"Till now she is alive....but maybe she won't be able to talk for some days or months," Alan said calmly as he looked at her with cold eyes.

"This...what do we say to her family?" The knight asked as he lifts her body.

"Just send her back, I bet they won't have the guts to ask us anything." The emperor said as he singled them to leave.

"Then we shall take our leave." Saying that the knights left along with the girl. Silence filled the room but that silence didn't stop the second prince to let out his frustration.

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!! Why does this keep happening and how dare she call mother a wit...she..... I should just kill her!!!!" The second province said as he took his sword and was about to walk until the emperor and hugged him tightly.

"Calm down...I am at fault for not being able to protect you all.." The emperor said as he patted his head. "...Father..." Alfred murmered as he hugged him back.

"..Why..is this happening...why...*sob* *sob*," Alfred said as tears rolled down his eyes.

"Alfred!!" Alan said as he helplessly looked at his younger brother crying bitterly.

"...Cry...Cry it all out..." Emperor said as he patted his back. " *Hic* Huh huh...WHY DO THEY KEEP CALLING MOTHER A WITCH, WHY ARE THEY SO MEAN AND CRUEL...MOTHER IS ON HER DEATHBED RIGHT NOW AND INSTEAD OF BEING SYMPATHIC THEY KEEP SENDING WOMEN TO FATHER'S CHAMBERS, WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS WHY!!!!" Alfred shouted his lungs out and after a while, he calmed down.

"Now are you better?" The Emperor asked as he offered him water to drink. "Yes, * Sniff*," Alfred said with a flustered face.

"Are you okay or do you need to take some rest?" Alan asked in a worried tone.

"Ah no, I am fine, after shouting all out I feel much better than before," Alfred said with a smile on his face.

"That's good then," I said as I gently tapped his head.

"Since you are all good, then how about we talk about today's incident." The emperor said as he took his seat with a glass of wine in his hands.

"Are you going to drink in front of us now?" Alan asked as he looked at his father.

"Yes...since it helps in reducing stress and frustration." The emperor said as he moved the tip of the glass slowly.

"Oh, then can I have some too," Alan said with a straight face. "Was that a joke?" The Emperor asked a she looked at his son with suspicious eyes.

"You know I never joke," Alan said as he looked straight at his father's eyes.

"Hah, just wait till you turn 18 after that you can have this Occasionally." The emperor said as he took a sip of the red wine.

"I have to wait 7 years just to drink it occasionally?" Alan said as he crossed his arms.

"Yes," Emperor said in a simple and short to the point answer.

"Okay, then how long do we need to endure all this?" Alan said as he rubbed his temples.

"....I can't give you an answer yet, but trust me everything will be fine...." The emperor said with a smile on his face as he looked at his sons face.

"We trust you." Both of them said as they looked at the emperor.

"But what are you two doing here anyway? Shouldn't you be playing with the winter siblings?" The emperor asked as he kept down the wine glass.

"That....both of them went back..." Alan said in a low voice.

"We kind of messed things up.....furthermore we almost killed them from suffocation...' Alfred said as he held Alan's hand.

" Hah, you two messed things up but did they left you because you almost killed them?" The emperor asked as he ruffled his hair.

"We don't know...." Alan said as he bit his lower lip.

"Really....but your face doesn't match your words, Alan." The emperor said as he poured himself one more glass of wine.

"I...I talked with her coldly...and even gave her a cold shoulder...I let out my frustration on her and...she even cried because of me....." Alan said as he covered his eyes with his hands.

"Brother it was not just you...both of us are equally involved," Alfred said as he put his hand on my shoulder.

"Instead of wasting your time here while retreating what you did, why don't you two try to

think of a way to patch up with her." The emperor said in a calm tone.

"But after all this will she want to meet us in person," Alfred said as he played with his fingers.

"That's something you should find out yourself...now then I shall be leaving." Saying that he left the room.

"He probably went to meet mother, now what should we DO!" Alfred said as Alan drank a whole glass of wine.

"Take me to lady winter now!" Alan said as he wiped off the wine on his face.
