Royal Rumors [Prologue]
303 Words
It has been almost fifteen years of his ruling, fifteen years of suffrage. No, the people had suffered the day the Pierce Household dethroned the Natas Family and took over the kingdom. Everything got worse when he was crowned King Luca Pierce.
He was crowned at the mere age of ten when King Alfred was murdered by his Uncle, Lord Halson. Now, he no longer trusts anyone in the castle, not even his own mother.
Rumor has it King Luca was not the rightful heir as the late King Alfred had an illegitimate son with his mistress. Words quickly spread as the late King Alfred mistress is the rightful Queen, his soulmate.
After the death of King Alfred, his mistress quickly disappeared or perhaps silenced permanently. Now, everyone questions the whereabouts of the unwanted son. The elder prince which Queen Violetta unrightfully locked away shunned from the world.
Many people reject King Luca ruling declaring he is not a real King without a Queen. Although rumors spread and people heard whispers of the engagement between King Luca of Titan Arum and Princess Camilla of Clathrus Archeri, officially announced during his 25th birthday. Everyone was ready for the merge between the two dominant kingdoms. Together, they can conquer and rule with an iron fist.
What everyone didn’t expect was at King Luca’s birthday celebration he brought a particular young lady. Gazing into her hollow green eyes, they saw nothing, but resentment.
She wants blood from those who had done her wrong.
She wants them on their knees, begging for her forgiveness.
She wants retribution.
“Stand tall my Queen, keep your head held high, for those surrounding you live in consternation. Speak low with grace, but powerful, striking fear into those who dare doubt your decision. You want vengeance, you need power. Now, tell me, just how are you going to get that power.”
