Phillip said nothing at her confession for a while. He assessed her
" What do you think you're doing little human do not play games with me. How could you have done that?" He asked
" It was as Lord Jamie said, the necklace my husband gave it to me." Kathy explained leaving him speechless for a while
" You could harness it powers you're just a human." Phillip stated looking irritated
" We both know I am not ordinary or I wouldn't be in this kingdom today your majesty. No need to ignore the obvious of course I could harness it." Her arrogance annoyed him
" Why are you confessing now? You look as if you think I wouldn't order your death which is laughable." Trust Dylan, trust Dylan she chanted in her head
" Everyone seemed to be there but I didn't see Lilith. I wonder where she is?." Phillip was dumbfounded. How the hell did she find out about Lilith
He stood up slowly. Giving her a threatening glare, then he walked to her and gripped her by the neck choking her
" If you kill me...a hu.. human princess.. what would your people think of you." He only tightened his grip harder
" What does it matter you committed a grave offense already." Phillip said
" I heard everything in the dungeon... I know about your son and the fact you told that woman to kill me." Phillip released her in surprise.
She wasn't ordinary after all, his brother was really something
" How did you find out?" He asked
" That's not important I'll tell everyone that Lilith is alive and your son is alive too." Was she trying to get herself killed. Was she mad
" I could kill you here and now and say my temper got the better of me. Either way you're dead." Phillip threatened her
" True your majesty but I could have told someone about it. Maybe your brother. Or I could have left a message about the curse." Kathy hadn't told Dylan about the curse. She didn't understand it before but now she does. It was what she had forgotten to tell him
When the king had choked Lilith neck she had said something like you won't find him this way. Then she mentioned about a blood bond curse, then she heard the king say there was something more threatening than her little curse. It was all the pieces she needed. The curse with Dylan plus Lilith is something
She could have told him but she was distracted. Maybe she knew it wasn't fair telling him about other curses and not hers.
" You brat! How dare you!"
" Easy your majesty. We don't want people finding out do we now." She was blackmailing the King of this damned kingdom Lord help her
" You wrote a message about it? Why should I believe you." He barked
" Then kill me and watch how everyone knows about your son bond with Lilith. You're trying to protect him, you didn't like her yet she was still alive it was so easy to guess your majesty." How could she sound polite while threatening him like that
" You're not going to get off either if he finds out about you you're dead!" He spat
" Then let him kill me your majesty. All that matters is right now if you kill me the whole kingdom would know about the bond curse. I read about it, interesting topic wasn't it." Kathy waited for him to sink it all in. Phillip remained silent for a while
" I don't believe you how on earth could you tell anyone to reveal the curse if you die. Is it your maid's should I just kill them as well." Phillip said testing to see if she'll skip away something
Kathy was enraged but she kept her cool
" Everyone knowing Dylan is alive is one thing, but knowing he now has a weakness a rather blunt and obvious one is something now isn't it. The curse which makes him feels what the other person feels." She gave it to him straight.
Phillip knew she was right
" What do you want from me?" He asked in frustration
" You're the king the possibilities are endless. You could just exile me to his house, my husband wants to go there and the palace is rather too dangerous you wanting to kill me and all. " Phillip eyed her
" Then you can try to kill me some other time but not now. Now if you try it everyone would know. Send me and my maids with Darla to Dylan's house." It sounded like a command
Phillip wanted nothing than to kill her right here and now. The kings were coming he didn't know what they wanted. The last thing he wants was for outsiders to discover the curse. Damn Lilith! . The human could be lying but she could be telling the truth he'd love to read her memories but how would he explain her being brain read. Besides it was a marriage of alliance anyway
" You won't get away with this, do you realize that." He told her
" I am fully aware your majesty." She smiled she knew she had won.
He couldn't believe it a mere human princess threatened a whole King of the Althreazies.
" Jamie!" He barked it didn't take up to a minute before Jamie came in. He looked at the princess wondering what had transpired between them
" Take her and her disgusting maids to Dylan's house immediately I don't want to see her for even a second and nobody should disturb me for now." He ordered
Jamie eyes widened in surprise, what the hell happened here?
The princess smiled and picked herself up she spared Jamie only a glance and walked out of the hall .
Outside the hall they were few people there but Kathy didn't say anything. Jamie took in a deep breath
" The King ordered that she should be exiled to Dylan quarters never to step foot in the Althreaze kingdom again." He said everyone looked at him like he had gone mad
" Then you should obey." Eric said immediately.
They all groaned in frustration. No one has the courage to question his decision but it was highly suspicious. The princes scoffed and left the scene and some one officials began to depart.
The remaining ones were the supreme council members. This decision was absurd they looked at Eric as if waiting for him to decide something
" You take her to Dylan's house, you should all leave for now I'll talk with my brother." Eric said.
" He said no one should disturb him." Jamie murmured.
" I'm sure he'd make an exception for me." Eric told them they all nodded and left taking Kathy with them
Eric opened the door with a smirk on his face. He walked in to see Phillip holding his forehead as if he was tired. He looked up in to see the intruder in anger when he saw it was his brother he sighed. He was definitely going to make him feel worse
" Your son giving you trouble?" Eric said and Phillip glared at him at the question

They didn't waste time, Jamie immediately told her to start packing. Kathy hadn't seen her maids she wondered were they were
" My--" she didn't get to finish her words
" I'll get them for you" Jamie left immediately
While outside he seems conflicted. What did she do to the king? Sending her to Dylan's house that was what her husband Damian wanted. Why was he fulfilling the request especially when he had ordered Damian to return without a tyrant.
He really didn't want to see the human maid. He shouldn't care she was beneath him but ever since that day he couldn't stop seeing her in his dreams. What he doesn't know was if they were nightmares or not
