I was leaning against the wall, the place was extremely cold and these robes won't doing anything to stop that.
"Julianna what are you doing all the way down here?" I heard and I looked up to see Leo's father standing there looking at me intently. A bitter taste grew in my mouth and I know what I say next couldn't been avoided.
"What's it to you?" I say sternly.
He pulled back a bit as he squinted his eyes." Is everything alright?".
"Wouldn't you like to know, your a disgusting old man who deserves to be hung from the roof and castrated".
He tilted his slightly with a stupid smug look on his face." You have quite a mouth their, Leonardo must not be making good use of it if you still have all this strength to rant at me".
"Your a pig!, and a heartless monster, just because you're cold and alone doesn't give you the right to oppress others!".
"Dear I would watch the way you talk to me, I may not be king anymore but I can certainly still make you disappear and he'll move on eventually and find someone much more worthy than some dirt from the village child!" His voice a little louder than before.
"The fact that you can talk down on me shows just how you treated your wife!".
He scoffed." She was just a measly distraction, a accident more like it. Got her pregnant and only married her because the people would have shun my actions. Not a fantasy relationship everyone ought it to be".
"Why are you telling me this aren't you a bit worried I tell Leonardo?".
He let out a laugh that made me move closer to the wall. "Dear the fact that you think your even worth that much here is amusing, do you think he will believe you over his father?. He can get what you have from 100 other maidens in this town, remember that the next time you try to cross me". He finished and a part of me was scared down to my toes.
"I found your wife's letter" I say sternly.
"What letter!" His voice echoing down the hallway.
"The one she wrote before you drove her to her grave!".
"Liar!, you possess nothing".
"I guess we'll just have to wait to find out!"
"You're asking for trouble, and you're going to get it my dear".
He gave me one last look before walking away.
I need to get out of this place before I lose my mind. This is a lot to take on a day after your wedding.
I walked over to the room I was given before marriage, this should do for the night.
******************
"Julianna!, open this door!" I heard as I rolled over to the end of the bed.
"Julianna please"
I got up and went towards the door and took a deep breath as I opened the door.
"Julianna I'm so sorry-"
"Stop, don't" I say as he attempted to walk forward.
"Love, please. I was out of my mind last night forgive me for me for my actions"
"I'm confused, tell me why is it that you chose me? Did you think I would just lay down and take whatever rubbish you toss at me? I am not your mother I won't be confined to a life in which I am not happy".
