Chapter 190

BANG!

The door shivered from the force of was slammed against the wall with as the big man walked into the room in angry heavy steps, sending chills running down the spine of the young maid inside.

"GET OUT!" He ordered coldly.

"Yes, My Lord."

She did not need a reminder as to whether or not to obey the order. The terrifying look on the man’s face already told her what to do.

Without wasting a second there, she noted her head and ran out from whence he came, leaving her mistress to the brutal glare of her father.

"How dare him!" Caspian yelled out in anger as his eyes turned even darker in rage.

"How dare him? I warned you," Diona let out before standing from her seat that da we the window. She did not bother turning around to see him. She felt disgusted by his rage.

"Who are you siding?"

"No one. I warned you, didn’t I? Tsk, but you wouldn’t listen. Do you think he is a fool?"

"Diona, watch your mouth or I would..."

"Or you would what?" She turned around swiftly, her own glare matching his as she dared him silently to utter one more statement.

"Do not make me forget that you are my father and insult you." He remained quiet. If there was anything, he knew the daughter he raised. "Ha!" a short pained laughter followed with no trace whatsoever on her face.

"Did I not warn you about Yonder Blaze? Look at what siding with him and aiding him has caused us? Underdogs in front of other Lords and ministers. At least with Era as our only enemy, we remained on top of the food chain but now, you made Vidor one of a kind enemy because of Yonder and we fell."

"Diona." She raised her hand up, with her palm facing him as her anger sky-rocketed even more. "Look at how the mighty Lord Regent Caspian has fallen. Do you think I like it? If you had listened to me, we would have gotten rid of Era first, then I marry Vidor and we kill him too. The plan was perfect. It was sleek, great in fact."

"But slow. Do you think Vidor would have allowed that?"

"Yes, I know the plan was slow father, but it was a plan that would not have armed us. How do you think he would feel of his wife is caught in the act of treason? All we needed to do was fuel her rage against him and push her to killing him for us. Then we catch her in the act an the court, well you as the regent would convict her do treason with all her crimes put before her. There would be no saving her then. But what did you do?"

He lowered his gaze. She had a point. His daughter could be so manipulative at times that he wondered if really he was the one who trained her.

"You ruined it all because a quicker opportunity came. Where did it leave you now? Where did it leave us at? Tax... Bloody hell. The embarrassment could be the death of me!"

"Diona, I..."

"You what? Haven’t you and your Yi der caused enough problems already? Now where is that bastard now that you are fallen? Let us see if he would come back and use your help again or he would find the next minister to ride against. He was issuing you as you hoped to use him."

"Well, I planned on double crossing him with you so we can inherit all we ever wanted," Caspian tried to reason.

"Is that so?!" She grinned before crossing her arms in front of her chest as she titled be head a bit to the side. "Do you think, Yonder Blaze would by any chance... No do you think the Slyerians would yield and let you keep the throne as a sovereign country?"

"Yes."

"Wrong. No. They would use you and worst, keep you under their arms like a pet dog an deep you as a state, a city more or less and if worse, you would be regent to their own high Lord who would reign. Nothing good ever comes from joining an allying nation. You should know this considering what we did to Meribia."

"I know. But I already planned for us to have a counter measure. Even if Vidor was to be killed in that battle. I would not have allowed Sludrians to match into the kingdom but command the king’s Aloha Armies to match and conquer them."

"Thne the at would still be on."

"Yes. And I would rule since I had his token command and the people would not suspect me but would follow me into battle to avaneg the king against Slyerian. Slyerians would not have survived my attack but plans ruined when that nosy queen found the letter and warned Vidor."

"Warned you say? She never left the castle. She helped him through Damian."

"Now that is another stumbling block we must take care of," Caspian voiced out. "Himself and that Kane. If not for him, Era would not have been able to get out of this if we framed her. But he is there as a witness and so was Damian."

"Relax. Enough of the rage. In time things would be to our favour. What is past is past? For now, we must prepare ourselves and lie low. At this point we have lost some subordinates and Lords who would readily do all we ask."

"This pompous brats. I would kill them all when I am in power once more. They should wait and see. Soon all would be done and dusted. Soon everyone would cower before me. I would set them up and make them understand how it feels to be underneath."

"We would have that time, father. For now, we need to behave in front of them. Besides, what is this I hear, Vidor had the guts to speak ill of me?"

Caspian’s eyes darkened. Anytime he recalled it, he felt so bac. It was ein tching for Vidor not to want her but it was another to humility hr this and ruin her chances with other men. Not that they mattered now si ce his goal was to make her queen in the first place.

However when he looked up at her, to pet her since he was not able to defend her honour well, he was shocked to see her smirking mischievously.

"Relax dad. I know my game well. Since he compared me to her, I would prove to her that I can get her man."

"That is the slriirt but what you, d you do? He wasn’t moved before by your charms. How do you plan on seducing him an getting him in bed? Mind you, if you can pull this off, you would have succeeded in setting your place. Also, ensure you get knocked up an drive him a great time that even if he sees Era again, he would feel irritated by her."

"Got it."

"If you want some experienced teaching. I know some great ladies who can make any man fall. Too bad bad too good Vidor never went to such places or he would have fallen. Now my daughter would be the one to do so."

"Yes father. No man would be able to resist my charm. Not even Vidor an di live to see the look on Era’s face when I take her man away from her with what she can’t do."

"Hahaha. That is my daughter. A chip of the old block. Now my parking, to thank you for cheering up this old man, you can have a feast with the ladies and gather back your fans."

"Wouldn’t that just be like I am celebrating and showing off to her?" Diona reasoned. "We are to keep low remember."

"No worries. Invite her for it and call it an apology dinner for wronging her with Vidor. The other ladies would see you as a revered lady and know you are sincere. Perhaps, she would lower her guard with you from there."

"Father, that is going to be a bother. I have to pretend in front of her. You know how much I feel like choking* her to death. How can you ask me to do that?" Diona whined.

"It is as you said. I should accept this punishment and behave for now. You also need to act that way and show remorse. That way, we can start winning the hearts of the people and Vidor. Them they would naturally speak great things of dis anbefore you know it... BAM! We are back on top."

"I know fine. I would do as you have suggested. I hope it doesn’t have to be long though before my face get accustomed to smiling for her. Eww!"

’Hehe, what a naughty daughter. You think only I would suffer this shame alone? We would together, that way you would also know how to tame your unruly tongue.’
