" . . . Most people don't believe that they are planning such a thing but I assure you that I got my information from a good source."
Rose looked down and said nothing. She was not skeptical about his claims of what the north wanted.
She was aware as much as every other citizen of the two kingdoms were about the emnity between the two kingdoms.
She was not going to pretend to be ignorant of it. It was a well known rumors. The whole world was aware of it.
The south seemed to be a large ocean overflowing with goodness that people think they could successfully empty by using big buckets to fetch the water out of it.
"Do you believe in time traveling?" Rose suddenly asked looking at the two men before her.
The younger man found her question very disrespectful and inappropriate after his father spent minutes talking to her about the impending war.
The older man felt she had a tangible reason for asking because he was very much aware as much as his petty son was that Rose was not someone who jokes around.
"I don't know. It might not be possible now but I guess in a few generations to come, she will be," Mr. Hart said seriously.
"What about you?" she asked Jace did not reply after a few seconds.
"I don't believe at all. It is totally impossible," he replied seriously contradicting what his father said. He actually felt confused that his father thinks it could be possible.
"That is what I told him but could you imagine that a boy told my mom that she was going to die. He told her not to travel to where she the tape was taken.
"Liam said it was a time Traveller and he could help me meet the boy when the the time comes.
"Another time traveler told me about a research institute that southern scientists are getting kidnapped to.
"He also told me about an impending riot he going to try to stop. He knew the time an unexpected rain was going to fall.
"From what what I have said, do you think he is really a time Traveller?" she asked watching them closely.
"You do not give us enough information to decide that. We can't conclude that easily that he is a time Traveller," Mr. Hart replied patiently.
"I am not sure if I should say this but he told me a lot of things but I think it will be right to let him tell you himself," she told them seriously.
"Who is he? Is there a way we can meet him. We could carry out a background check on him to prevent any problem in the future.
"I will find out if he is truly someone we can trust. If we can trust him then we will go with his idea of what the future looks like.
"If not then, it's best to find a way to get rid of him or at least take him far away from you," Mr. Hart's suggested.
"Oh . . . He is my husband so there is absolutely no way you could get him away from me," she said seriously.
She froze like she had just let a huge secret slip out of her lips unintentionally. It was the other way round.
If anyone should know well about if Liam was truly a time Traveller or not, it should be his family members.
"Why are you telling us such a joke?" Jace asked in a low pissed off tone.
"Oh . . . I guess it not much of a joke since you are not laughing. I came to eat dinner and not stare at your faces. I am famished," she said with a smile.
". . ."
Jace could not understand what she was talking about. How could his brother be a time traveller?
"You should really take joking classes if you love saying jokes a lot," Jace advised her seriously.
It seems like she has been making jokes from the moment she stepped into the room.
"The life of millions of people are in your hands but you have a lot of time to joke," Jace said and let out a displeased scoff.
"Don't forget that my life is included. I value my life more than anyone can imagine. Since you want to give me the leadership over that group, I will gladly take over but I will employ you to help me manage most of their affairs.
"I can't force you to do it. If you don't want to then simply tell me. I thought you were loyal to the throne. I am the only person fit to sit on the throne."
"You seem to missing up something now. Right now, you are the heir to the throne but that doesn't mean you are accepted by the south as their ruler.
"The moment you publicly agree with our suggestion to divide the kingdom as soon as you become Queen then we will gladly agree to be your minion.
"Just like the research institute where a lot of our scientists are dying in that we haven't been able to locate, we will be able to stop everything.
"What you need to do is become Queen. You must become Queen right away or when we discover what is been done in that research institute, it will be too late to safe anyone.
"This is not a joke. You must tell the world what the south seeks and that is a division. We want our kingdom back and have full control over it.
"Our people are getting hurt. We are not only loyal to the throne but to the people. If a Queen or King who is not willing to cater for the needs of people, we carry out an operation called inhilation.
"We meet with that king and tell him what is going on. If he refuses, then we will step back. We will watch him get killed by his enemies and do nothing to stop it.
"You are no different. You might not see the hardwork we are putting into making things better for you. We are protecting you although you might never have noticed it.
"Why do you think your days in the university has been peaceful? We made that happen. Imagine what will happen the moment we take a step back.
"Take this. We want your finger print. It is a document that agrees with the division," Jace explained before placing a file in front of her.
She opened the file and stared at the simple agreement. She had already signed a contract with Liam. She was not sure she wanted to make such officially and legal agreement with anyone else.
She scoffed and pushed the file back to them. "You really think you could threaten me right? That was a really good one but I am not falling for it.
"I haven't made up my mind to go with the division. I am also a rightful heir to the north. They might not be nice people but remember that I have their blood flowing through my veins.
"I am a northerner as much as I am a southerner. Don't you think I want to have both Kingdoms to myself as Queen?"
"You seem blind. You . . .," Jace began angrily but he stopped when he felt his father's intent gaze on him.
"Blind? I hate the northerners, at least most of them. What do you think is the reason why I wanted to become Queen of both Kingdoms?
"I thought you were a genius but I guess I am very much mistaken. You can't see things for what they are. You choose to see what you want.
"Remember that there is no one else you could put on the throne except if you want to become King yourself," she told him meeting his gaze confidently.
"You are simply confused," Mr. Hart finally spoke after a while.
"Whatever I am going through does not give you the right to threaten me. You might be a very powerful man but remember that you not the strongest in Star city.
"Do you think I will be your puppet Queen? I guess I was mistaken to have thought you were trustworthy after Liam told me you won't try to hurt me."
She stood up and picked her things and walked to the door.
"I guess I won't get diner to eat. It was fun having made jokes with you but sad that you did not have the decency to laugh."
She smiled tightly before opening the door. She was very pissed by the way things turned out to be.
They wanted to force her into dividing the kingdoms. She was not against the division although she was not sure if she wanted to go against it since she valued her relationship to the south more.
However, the mistake Jace made was threatening her with their history as servants of the throne.
If you refused to protect someone who you could protect, that makes you no different from a murderer.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
