As the plan progresses, the head of Solon's mental and physical health weakens causing an easy strike.
With each passing day, Medea smiles seeing how horrible her father has looked- he looks like a walking dead who is yet to have his revenge on someone he deeply hates.
'I wonder how long he will fumble'.
Medea thought as she watchs her dad from afar, she stands up from her seat on the gazibo and starts to walk to the garden.
'It won't be long'.
Another thought crosses her mind as she looks at the flowers in the garden. Blood colored roses fill the garden- a beautiful sight to see, however in the middle of it all she notices a wild sunflower standing tall and proud as if saying "I'm unique". Strange, yet not? A sudden sunflower appears in the garden of roses it is easy to notice it due to how much it stands out. It should have been eyesore but Medea sees it as something more— how the little innocent flower belongs to the garden of deadly roses (stating how defensive the sunflower looks since it doesn't have any throns to protect itself from anything like the roses).
However, Medea looks at the strayed sunflower in complete "awe".
"To be innocent how lovely it is".
She looks at the roses who seems to be proticting the sunflower.
"If I had kids, would I be protective of them?".
A random thought flickers in her mind. If she and Dion become one would things have been peaceful? She knows it would be difficult since both of them are the future of the families one cannot just let go of the position to be with the other. Because no matter how resentful they are of their own blood they want to cut the generational trauma and to do that they have to be the head.
But there is nothing bad with thinking of something that is out of a fantasy.
If they would have kids Medea knows the two of them would do anything to protect their own kids' innocence and giving them a life both Medea and Dion wanted- a happy childhood that doesn't involve any form of blood, pressure, or death that would traumatize their own kid.
Their kids should be like the wild sunflower, standing with no problems in the world surrounded by the protector- rose.
They would change the world for the betterment of their future kids.
"Tch"
The woman clicks her tongue
"As if Dion even want kids or do I even want kids?"
She is a cruel woman. From childhood she is expected to win and be more than an average person. It is obvious that it won't be easy to just give a random child who has her blood a peaceful life when it is even hard to know what a definition of a perfect life even is. She's terrified she'll give them what she grew up with rather than the opposite.
Medea sighs and pinch the bridge of her nose.
"This is complicated".
***
A month later. Her plan has finally worked– Solon's head had gone crazy and this craziness let to his own unfortunate stupidity, he has spilled his own wrong doings that ended him with a payment of his life. The folks cheered after the madman's domain finally ended.
"Congrats on being the new head".
Medea fakes a smile to not seem rude to Eros.
"How fascinating it is that the new head is you".
He takes a step towards Medea.
"Is that so? I don't see it as something to be surprised about since it is already given".
Medea says in a factual tone.
"Hmm? Really?".
Eros grins like a sly fox.
"Is it also surprising if the new head is having a romantic moment with the enemy?".
Eros adds. Medea couldn't believe what he had just said. How did he know? No better yet, how could anyone know?
"What an odd rumor you believe in".
"Is it really odd?"
Eros asks.
"Yes, it is unusual. The crown prince just believes in stupid rumors without knowing who the source is"
Eros needs to spill who he heard it from.
"Does a rumor need a source when it is obvious?"
He swiftly catches the lady's chin and squeezes it while Medea glares her purple eyes at him.
Eros wants to say something, it is obvious, his tongue is moving with hesitation. He loosens his grip and frees Medea's face.
""Keep your enemies close" you took that phrase too literally Medea, I'm afraid it'll cause your doom".
Eros leaves after his warning. Does Medea care? Not one bit, she just scoffs it off.
Why would the words of someone who doesn't know what she feels or wants make an impact on her emotions?
She is Medea. She doesn't care about the words of others, after all they can do is bark and bark but never bite.
