Chapter 53: Sidelining Cyrus?!

Prince Alex's veins were popping out of his hands when punched the wall beside the standing window. The anger was quite evident which he went through and even King Almen and general Ryan have witnessed the same. 

King Almen, who saw his son hurting himself strictly yelled, "Don't do anything foolish, Alex."

"Foolish?" Turning around, Prince Alex stared at his father with the evident laughing stock expressions that had plastered over his face, "Your eldest son can go and marry anyone... and now you're telling me to not do anything foolish?"

"This is all for the alliance." was all that King Almen muttered when he was walking back and forth in the chamber. There was a turmoil of many things that rested on the shoulders. 

The chief concern that Cyrus chose to actually take the lady as his bride annoyed him, 'When there was a clear-cut chance to actually get our hands over the human empire, he still went ahead with the lady?' 

This was somewhat troublesome. On top of that, his other son was all over burning in his rage. The frustration that the lady he had his eyes upon, was now married to his brother. 

Prince Alex's eyes shined with the unclear mist when he answered, "That lady...that princess..was supposed to be my concubine! How can Cyrus have his hands over her!"

"You have dozens of them in your place. Leave that lady." Almen found it hard to convince his stubborn son who was bent on having the wife of his brother. 

It Was not only making him furious but he was afraid. 

Afraid that this crazy son of his will inform Cyrus and tell everything out. Being exposed was the last resort he was hoping for, especially RIGHT NOW. 

Alex threw another vase down on the ground which broke with a thud sound. It entered into their ears, as the Almen's lips turned into a straight line. There was evident fury in his eyes when noted his son's actions. 

"ALEX! Enough is enough! Cyrus is the crowned prince and he is the one who is marrying that human, not you! Don't forget that your engagement is already done."  Hearing this, Prince Alex's lips curved upwards, "Which? With that lady??"

"I don't ever count her as anything in my life. Don't bring her here. While Cyrus can get the free blood bank, why can't I?" How can he not remember the beauty of the lady whom his brother married? 

'Alice...Alice...'  The name itself was making him excited deep in his heart. Her skin was extremely soft, which he saw from a far distance. The eyes of hers were already deep in the brown color. Despite her attempts to hide her actual beauty, it was hard to invade his lusty gazes. 

He only teased his brother, in the initial time but he had earlier seen how much protective he got towards her. 

Claiming her as his, in front of the entire session of court when pressed his lips against her.. 

That made his blood want to rip his neck away from that of his body! 

He kept himself silent throughout when the event of the marriage took place but that didn't mean that he didn't feel anything., He wanted to just after his brother's life, but he was still himself back at that moment. 

At the same time, King Almen had hundreds of thoughts that were recently going inside his mind. Biting his lower lip, he took a deep breath before closing his eyes and, massaged his temples, "The two of you both are bent on giving me a headache.."

"I'm giving you pain in your head?" Alex can't blurt but he felt his annoyance rising up, "Your son is the one who actually made everything a mess for you and you are telling me that I'm the one who is the pain here?"

"Who asked you to actually go and give that man's hand in the alliance? If you had to make someone marry the Crowned Princess, I WOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE!" 

In the end, King Almen's fury had reached his brain. The thin line which he had held himself back from exploding, has finally reached. 

King Almen walked towards his other son who was burning in rage. Holding his shoulders tightly, he glanced at him with murderous eyes before asking, "So, what do you want me to do for you? Actually, go and tell Cyrus everything that we have been playing for so long?"

"It will fall into pieces in such a few moments. If I decide to reveal everything he will abandon everything it will fall over you. Will you fight with the rest of the Kingdoms? Your life will be in danger, Alex." Hearing this, Alex's frowned eyes started to come back at its place. 

The nerves had also started to ease out when shook his head, "You Are using him as bait.."

"And we need him. A ham and a vampire can never mate, are you forgetting things? Cyrus can never have anyone who will continue his lineage and he will always think that the lineage of his and mine are the same...but.."

Before saying the last words, King Almen's eyes grew distant as the malicious glint passed by his state. There was no denying that he was a scheming king and he will never deny that saw hell, "Do you want me to opt for that same option for you?" 

Alex had to gulp the saliva present in his mouth. There were no words when he came out and his fury also started to settle at its place. 

At the end of the day, they remember that everything will come into their own hands and there is nothing to worry about as well. 

At the same time, General Ryan had listened to everything that King Alen told about Cyrus. His lips turned into a thin line when he pressed them together. Even his hands gripped each other tightly, hard to not recall what he went through. 

How can he forget his own deeds in everything involved? 

"King Almen, we have limited time. Please make it quick." General Ryan muttered from behind when he felt the King stare at him, "Ryan, tell me, how much time will it take to snatch the rights from Cyrus and hand it over to Alex?"

Hearing this, general Ryan was dumbfounded. There was a wide stare of his which he couldn't even differentiate much, "A-as..per your say.."

"See, just my few words and everything will fall into place." King Almen's eyes shone with the unclean mist and the sparkle was hard to miss. 

Even Prince Alex's mind had worked in that direction to feel that his words did make a lot of sense. It was hard to deny that his father held all the powers. 

"So are you sure that once we get what we wish for, you will actually make Cyrus sideline from our paths?" he can't help but ask, as Alex still held the sense of the doubts. 

In return, King Almen made a smirk curved face to stare at his son with the definite answers that were held in his heart, for now, and ever. "Trust your King. Prince Cyrus is the Crowned Prince, but you are behind him. We all know that once Cyrus is on the sideline, you are next to the throne..." 

Saying this, King Almen held Alex's shoulders firmly without tearing his gaze even for the minute second, "You are my son, you will have everything and obviously, time and patience are the keys."

"What about the lady?" 

Alex knew that now that Alice was married to his brother, he would have to take a lot of effort to get close to her. In fact, she might not even let him in, which is highly unlikely. 

The fact that he can't even get closer to her, or touch her was enough to infuriate him. Yet the next words of his father still bent his nerves and gave firm affirmation. 

"Once  Cyrus is out of the way, you are most welcome or have her." A direct and straight answer brought a giant smile that was plastered on Prince Alex's face. 

There was no way to deny that his eyes sparkled with immense joy that surfaced. "I will wait for that time then.."

Whereas, General Ryan had kept an expressionless face throughout. He had heard it all how they all planned to remove Cyrus from their paths after taking undue advantage. 

Gulping the saliva, there was sweat formed on his forehead. Everything is still present in his eyes and he can never forget about the past either. 

It was the solid past, which might have been turned into a small event for others but him? He had witnessed and taken part in the crime himself. 

A frown had curved on his forehead when he recalled how merciless the dead bodies were laid by King Almen when he had snatched the throne... 

'I hope that you find everything out very soon, Cyrus..before it is too late and your life ends up  in danger..'
