Chapter 122 - Because She Must Be The Only Woman In His Life

Talsha returned to her room with a solemn face, she quickly wanted to drive that vixen off away from her prince charming. Before coming to the campus, she had only seen Alex twice when by chance the Ludacris family was invited to the Salian clan. There Talsha had met the cold looking but the distinct crown prince of the Salian clan and she fell in love with him just like that. 

As the Salian clan was not a place for her to visit as she wished, she had approached her father, revealing her feelings towards the crown prince. Her father, Taran Ludacris was the sole heir to the emerging Ludacris family. It was already suspicious that the family which was on the verge of destruction suddenly blossomed into a big tree. People didn't know whether it was the master Ludacris's hands or the elder one, his father Phelixtros Ludacris hands-on amazing growth.

When Father Ludacris came to know about his daughter's feelings, he supported her decision and even pulled strings to know about the crown prince's recent activities. He felt that fate had decided to aid Talsha's love as the crown prince broke off his engagement and even his fiancee went missing later on. Later on, he asked Talsha to join the Envoy Salian College just because Alex was going there.

All this while, there was only one person who opposed Talsha's admiration and that was none other than her own mother, Lady Cynthia, who knew that this love should be tipped out at the budding stage itself. She was afraid that her only daughter would destroy herself for her love. Therefore, when Talsha came back to the Ludacris family mansion in a pathetic state, Lady Cynthia scolded her openly.

" My child, Tali.. why don't you understand? He isn't the one for you, look you might have seen men who love women only at night or those who want to form relationships to become powerful in society. But there are few men who give their heart to only one woman, they will be purely dedicated to the woman in their heart and I am sure, the Salian crown prince is such a type. "

" What such a type? All men are the same. That punk doesn't know it yet but I am sure that once he takes over the Salian clan, he will rush to find suitable alliances from respectable families. With what I heard last, now there is no one suitable for him from the Agnartic and Posei families, so next in line is our family. "

Grandfather Ludacris had always pampered his granddaughter and would even pluck stars from the sky if she asked whereas both her father and mother were a bit strict with Talsha's upbringing.

" I understand father, but look at our precious child, she was badly hurt this time. I never want to see even a small bruise on her body let alone her having a heartbreak. "

Grandfather Ludacris sighed, he waved at his only grandchild and asked her to sit beside him.

" What happened my dear? Tell me, I never thought you would be bullied up to this extent. Who made my child angry?"

Talsha wanted to explain what all things happened after the big break but she chose to close her mouth for the time being. She simply mentioned about the combat skill session and told her parents that it was her mistake that she used underhand methods to finish the fight which retaliated as her opponent was the direct disciple of their combat master.

" Then, it is fine. I thought my precious was bullied by your future husband and his friends. Now Cynthia, dress her wounds properly and let us rest for today, don't eat her ears till she gets fine. "

" Okay, father. I understand"

Talsha winked at her grandpa and retreated to her room whereas her mother was stopped by the elder.

" Cynthia, I know why you are scared of sending your daughter as the daughter-in-law of the Salian clan, in fact, she has all the abilities to become the crown princess, then why are you always objecting to her? If you are thinking that she will be powerless and might be bullied there, then let me confirm it once again, she is not the person to be bullied easily. Her heart and virtues are much adamant such that it will not stop until she gets what she wants. So stop meddling into her business, okay!"

Lady Cynthia nodded her head but in her heart, she still wished to stop her daughter from causing self-harm.

" When will Taran return home? It has already been three days since that fellow is out to have fun."

Just as the words came out of the grandfather Ludacris's mouth, the door was pushed open and a middle-aged man good looking man entered the living room.

From his countenance, it was clear to the elder as well as his wife that the master had met with something terrible and was in a bad mood.

" Honey, get me a glass of warm milk as soon as possible, this time the journey wore me out."

"Sure, hey Talsha got injured and she is more resting in her room."

Father Ludacris jumped up, " my daughter is injured and you are telling me now?" He started to run to his daughter's room to check on her but was stopped by his father.

" The kid is really fine, Cynthia, go and get him a glass of water now."

Cynthia went to the kitchen to prepare a fabulous dinner as the whole family was back today. After serving the milk, she went to the backyard to pick fresh vegetables and fruits for dinner.

Watching his son frown while sipping the warm milk, the elder had knowingly asked his daughter-in-law to prepare a feast as it will keep her busy for the next few hours.

" Son, let us talk in the study."

Soon the pair of father and son settled down inside the study.

" What is the situation? Did you get a chance to visit the king of the Salian clan? Tali didn't want to let her prince charming her pathetic state, I think that is the reason she returned home to take proper rest."

Taran could see his father was over the moon while talking about his daughter but he was not sure how to explain the current scenario to his excited father.

"Father, calm down first, I want to tell you a few things which are very important. It is good that Tali is back at home, I wanted to call her back home as soon as possible. The situation at the Salian Clan has reversed completely, now the king is the third prince of the clan, Mirandrian whereas Alex is actually no one… it was revealed that he is actually not even the son of the former king Valeriander. The whole scene was chaotic but it ended with the king being banished and the queen in the prison. Even the second prince is being sent to the northern towers with alpha guards from the great Esbertrazian clan"

Grandfather Ludacris was shocked to hear the change in the mighty Salian clan with just a small time period. As he was restricted to travel due to his physical conditions, he normally spent time inside the mansion and it was only his son who had connections outside. Due to the greed of power, both of them had nurtured Tali's feelings onwards Alex and now he was not even a prince. However, he was more shocked to hear about the involvement of the legendary Esbertrazian clan on the Salian grounds.

" Son, what did you say? I heard that you mentioned the Esbertrazian clan, is it really the great dark clan?"

Taran nodded his head confirming what his father heard was correct. Then he slowly explained about the girl who has suddenly emerged into the scenario which actually laid the foundation of all these happenings. He also reminded his father that it was the same girl who had survived the cliff-top manor killings four years ago. 

" Currently, Alex and that girl are in a relationship and it is no secret anymore. That is the reason why I had to call Tali back from college. I don't want her to be a third party in any relationship."

Grandfather Ludacris slowly stood up, he was in deep thought. He walked towards the window and saw how cheerfully his daughter-in-law was plucking fruits from the backyard gardens.

" Do you remember what happened nineteen years ago? On that rainy night, when your wife had given birth to a dead baby girl in the outskirts of the unknown city. You cried and prayed to the god. Like an angel descending to the earth, a woman appeared in front of you and took the dead baby from your hands. Then what happened no one knows, but when I found you and your wife the next morning, the baby in the middle was happily sucking her thumb finger and had a note beside her. "

Then the grandfather Ludacris took a well-preserved note from the secret compartment in the study. It read as - Make her the only woman in the eyes of the first prince of the Salian tribe.

" At that time, that boy was only a few months old, but still the angel requested it. It means that your daughter's life is for him...only him.. He should have only your daughter as his woman. We must fulfil that angel's condition, no matter what is it clear to you?"
