Chapter 5 Meeting the king

• Dawn's pov
• I was now cleared on the fact that I have an enemy here at the castle.
• Anger began eating me alive and I thought of what to do.
• Without a second thought, I grabbed the glass filled with water and ambled to where she was.
• I raised my hand and emptied the whole water on them.
• They both jerked up from their seats with gasps. The look on their face was priceless.
• "What the h3ll! Have you lost it???" The lady fired and I rolled my eyes.
• I turned and walked back to my chair glamorously.
• My butt was barely on the seat when Alicia picked up the cutleries on her side of the table and threw them at me but I dodged it.
• Whaaat?
• I stood my ground and took Simone's glass of water splashing it on Alicia.
• She used her hands to shield herself but the water still soaked her.
• "You bi**h!" She rasped and picked up her plate throwing the whole food at me.
• Damnit...
• She tried to hit me with her remaining fork but Simone got up and the fork landed on her.
• Oops.
• "You pathetic fools" Simone seethed and carried her empty plates throwing it as us individually.
• Geez!
• "I wasn't the one that tried to murder you with a fork!" I groused and she smirked.
• In a few seconds, the whole dinning room was a mess as we began throwing things at each other; The Vegetables and other edibles on our plates.
• I had my eyes on Alicia as she took a big round serving plate aiming for me.
• I shrieked and was about to take cover when she released the plate and it hit her daughter.
• Oh my God!
• The little girl...
• "Xenia!" Alicia called in fright and scurried to her.
• Xenia's tears were starting to scroll down her cheeks. Poor thing.
• I stared in dismay as Alicia consoled Xenia but her tears seemed like she was just beginning.
• Alicia was almost in tears as she embraced her to stop crying.
• Just then, we began hearing footsteps.
• Bold and clear footsteps...
• I gazed intently from where it was coming from.
• My nostrils instantly got occupied with sweet thick rich perfume which I suppose was expensive and precious.
• Holly Molly!
• My nose was in heaven.
• Who could smell so good like this, huh?
• He walked in...
• With his black hair ruffled and curly...
• The first few buttons of his fine kingly robe was opened...
• Eyes so green and crazy...
• Lips perfect and pink....
• A gold shinning earring on his left ear...
• Oh Heavens!
• He walked so perfectly with his hands behind his back.
• King Lee...
• I'm so going to faint.
• He was much more drop dead handsome in person.
• How can he be the crazy king everyone was talking about? Crazy but dangerous...
• Our eyes locked for a second there but it didn't last as he drifted them to his crying daughter.
• There were few guards behind me.
• He gazed at her for a while and Alicia left her maintaining a distance from the father and daughter.
• He stooped to the child's level and huffed.
• "What are you doing Xenia?" He asked her and I blinked rapidly.
• Can't he see she's in tears?
• His voice was deep and sweet.
• So damn appealing...
• Xenia sniffed unable to stop her tears.
• King Lee touched the girls hair and paused for a while before withdrawing his hand.
• Blood.
• There was blood stained on his hand.
• God!
• This is not happening.
• Conniption gripped me as I stared at the blood in his hand.
• The plate injured her for real...?
• Oh goodness.
• Alicia is so dead
• King Lee slowly took his hand to his head and rubbed the blood off.
• "Who did this to you?" He asked with so much darkness resounding in his voice.
• I watched as Xenia glanced at her mother who had slight tears on her cheeks.
• "I'm waiting Xenia" King Lee cooed impatiently, fiddling with the button on Xenia's dress.
• She sniffed and began cleaning her tears with her hands.
• She turned to me and before I could say 'jack', she pointed towards me and the king threw his gaze at me.
• Whaaat?
• How could Xenia do this???
• I'm officially dead
