Forbidden Love

Chapter 15

Then we fight.
Together.

Alishia’s p.o.v

I now sit in an very uncomfortable situation. I have to tell dad about Jacob. And Eric. Insert large sigh here please.
I sit in between mom and Jacob and Eric is on a chair a bit away from us, he is though way into the mist to be even contactable. Just for security are my guards also here, but also because they are my friends.

Dad sit in his chair at his desk looking as furious as ever. This is bad, real bad. He hasn’t said anything for about 5 minutes and I’ve never had a worse hand sweat in my life.

“Ned, take Eric out, he’s out like a light anyway” mom said and Ned looked at me for approval and I nodded.

Ned picked up Eric over his shoulder and carried him away.

Dad sat still quiet staring at us like we were his worst enemies.

“Say something now, Martin” my mom was the one to break the silence.

“What am I supposed to say, Juliet?! That my daughter is cheating on her fiancé with some random slave and you’re okay with it?!”

“He is not some fucking random slave; he is my boyfriend and I don’t care about what you think is appropriate this time or not! For 19 years have I lived under your rules and never complained, I have never had a life of my own, I am only your fucking puppet you are using until you can’t rule anymore! You’re trying to raise me to be like you, a cold, heartless person who only thinks about your own winnings from other persons actions! I love Jacob and it’s something you can take away from me!” I’m standing with my hands on my father’s desk breathing heavy from my rant. Then I think about what I said. Shit.

“HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT?! I HAVE GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING AND WHAT DO YOU GIVE ME? HUH? YOU SWEAR AT ME AND GO STICKING YOU TOUNGE DOWN SOME RANDOM GUY’S THROAT?!”

I was taken back at his words. I took a few steps back and turned my back to my father, as Jacob stood up and hugged me as tears began once again falling from my eyes.

“And you, you damn slave you have destroyed everything! If it wasn’t for you it could have became the dynasty it have waited so long to become!”

“You’re life, slave, was a mistake and I’m going to correct it” dad had a glint in his eyes that I’ve never seen before, it terrified me.

I stood in front of Jacob frozen in fear. What was he going to do? Dad raised his fist and I squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the impact but it never came, the sound came, but not the pain. I opened my eyes again and saw that Jacob had pulled me in behind him just in time for me to miss the blow, so he took it instead. My eyes widen at the sight.

“IT’S ENOUGH NOW, MARTIN! HOW DARE YOU HIT HIM! Don’t you understand that Alishia has a life of her own and Eric tried to RAPE her, Jacob SAVED her! I hate Eric! On so many occasions have he done so many inappropriate things! Grabbed her where she didn’t want to be grabbed, hugged when she didn’t want to be hugged, kissed when she didn’t want to be kissed! Think of someone else than yourself and the kingdom for once!”

“Escort Alishia and Jacob out of here” my guards nodded knowing this is what I wanted and escorted me and Jacob out of dad’s study and the chaos.

We walked outside the castle with my guards around us.

“Are both of you okay?” Felix stopped us in our tracks.

“I’m fine, I’ve had worse, so don’t worry about me” I looked up at Jacob and saw that the cheek still bright red.

“You sure?” I gently stroked my fingers along his cheek.

“I’m sure” he grasped my hand, kissed my fingers before he placed my hand on his chest with his and over mine.

“How about you then, Al?”

“I’m fine, I just don’t want to talk about it” Jacob hugged me and kissed the top of my head.

I and Jacob went to sit on a bench and wait for my mom to be done talking to my dad, and my guards were still around but gave us space to be alone. Jacob put his arm around my shoulders pulling me closer and I just snuggled further into his side.

After some time my mom came almost skipping out of the castle, so I’m assuming it went good.

“What did he say?” Jacob and I spoke at the same time.

“He is going to call for a meeting with the elders and his family” mom smiled brightly.

“The elders? That means grandma (dad) is coming” I sighed a long sigh and placed my head on Jacob’s shoulder.

“What did you tell him?” Jacob said and I sat up straight again.

“Something to make him change opinion and it worked”

Both I and Jacob breathed out. He isn’t going to kill us. For now at least. If dad family is coming means uncle Sam is coming too… wait does that mean?

“Mom, if Uncle Sam is coming does that mean that Cousin Clarissa and Chris are coming to?”

“It’s possible” mom just shrugged.

“When are they coming?”

“As soon as they possibly could”

“Yes! That means that my cousins are coming within the next 24 hours!” I stood up and twirled around, I’m really happy that I’ll see my cousins again.

“But that means that you need to clean your room and get a shower”

“Ugh, fine. I guess I have to go then” I turned to Jacob.

“It’s fine, baby, then I can get some work done” he hugged me before my mom and I left together with my guards.

We were almost inside the castle before I turned around.

“Hey Jacob!” he turned around too.

“I’ll be watching you!” I made the sign that I’ll be watching him.

“Of course you will!” he shouted back before he left laughing.
