ROYALTY

CHAPTER 6

“So why is Williams and Velendez after your life?” Debby asked sitting on the couch, Mia sat as well.

“To get to you, if they get to me, they’ll send their agent and push him as the prime minister” Locke answered.

“But they’ve tried to kill me, twice. Who else is aware of your identity?” Debby asked.

“Vanquez. I went to meet up with him and asked for his help, seems like this is beyond Vanquez, that’s why I came to you” Locke said.

Locke turned to Mia.

“How’re you doing?” Locke asked.

“I’m fine” Mia answered.

“Why did Vanquez asked me not to poke my head in this? This is a very serious matter! They are seriously going to use your position to get rid of me!” Debby exclaimed.

“Yes, you are right Queen Deborah” Locke nodded in confirmation.

Debby phoned Ella, her secretary to phone Advisor Vanquez to come her by 9am that morning and shouldn’t inform anyone else.

“So what are you planning?” Locke asked Debbie.

“You and Mia will have to come by my office by 9 this morning so we can discuss this with Vanquez and act on it. AROSA would have given me more information on this whole fiasco and then I’ll draw my conclusion.” Debby said and Locke nodded.

“Leon, please lead the AROSA agent to my suite, I want to discuss with him privately and ask someone to escort Prince Locke to a room in the castle. I’ll be in my room” Debby said, stood up and went to her room.

At Cathy’s

Cathy woke up and went through her morning routine, and then headed to the dining room where her breakfast was served.

Ringggg…

Cathy’s phone rang and she picked it up.

“Hey Jacob” Cathy greeted.

“Hi Cathy, are you free?” Jacob asked from the other line.

“I am sorry Jacob, I have a very hectic schedule today but I can accompany you tomorrow to Genevieve’s coronation” Cathy said and Jacob sighed.

Cathy knew Jacob liked her but she isn’t ready to be in a relationship again, not after the last one. You can say she’s afraid of commitment plus she has school work and royal duties, she cannot add relationship on top of that but Jacob doesn’t just give up.

“No problem, I’ll pick you up by 8 sharp, be prepared. Your advisors, are they arguing less now?” Jacob asked, now it was Cathy’s turn to sigh.

“It isn’t getting lesser, if not it’s getting worse. I really need them because they know more about the kingdom, they’ve witnessed it but how can I seek their advice when they can’t even agree with each other! I wasn’t planning into looking into their past king unlike Debby that’s too curious; but at this point, I have too. I mean, I have enough on my plate” Cathy ranted. Jacob could only feel for Cathy.

She’s the Queen, a Queen needs her advisors to make critical decisions but when the advisors divided themselves into two and are against each other, how could she make those decisions.

An evil idea popped up in Jacob’s head.

“Why don’t you point a gun at their heads” Jacob suggested.

“Jacob! I am seriously not killing my advisors.” Cathy yelled.

“Sheesh woman, I didn’t say you should kill them, I am just saying be blunt, point a gun at their heads and force them to reconcile” Jacob said.
