Everything For The Throne
Because I Love u
The atmosphere was dark.. the people in the court were silent looking at the figures that stood in front of them... they took their breath cautiously as if they can't disturb the talk happening before them...
the throne was empty... the man who was supposed to sit on that was standing before all the ministers and nobles pointed his sword at his loyal knight who just stood looking straight into his eyes without any glimpse of fear...
The great Emperor asked.... it wasn't out of anger... It was a unbelievable sorrow...
Alexandria
Everything for the throne
The Knight said as if she prepared the answer from a long time
Emperor Alexandr
I gave u my name... gave u place to stay... gave u status... money.. land... everything u asked...
He questioned... not the knight but himself.. Why did things turned out this way... he never imagined it...
Alexandria
u killed my people... but I stayed by your side... waged war against enemies... killed thousands of people...
She said as she stepped forward letting the sword pass through her chest... The Emperor was helpless...
he held her in his arms as she spitted blood... the sword passed through her flesh completely... with great difficulties she said
Alexandria
Everything... fo.. for the.. thr.. throne....
Her eyes were still sparkling like stars in the night sky... the place was now covered with blood which flowed like water... she whispered with all her strength that was left in her body
Alexandria
I.. Lo.. loved u...
The Emperor was speechless.. he sat on his knees holding his knight in his arms tightly... till he felt she was no longer with him... he slowly put her on the ground which was covered with her blood... he slowly pulled out his sword and walked towards the throne
he looked at the people who were processing the things just happened...
suddenly few people wearing royal knight dress entered the room.... they looked at the terrifying scenery before them....
they ran towards the lifeless body which laid on the ground... one among them shouted at the Emperor who sat on the throne with dark cold eyes
Royal Knight Michael
she was framed... she was the most loyal one... she was ready to give her life for u.. today u r the great emperor of the 4 kingdom is all because of her ... but u...
he chocked... he couldn't talk anymore... tears flowed down his cheeks non stop...
the nobles and ministers in the court raised their voice...
Minister
she admitted her crime....the Emperor gave her the right punishment that she deserved LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR...
the court was filled with the praise of Emperor for his impartial judgment...
but the Emperor had no emotions nor any feeling... he sat there starring at the corpse of his beloved Knight who was laying there dead
Princess Alice
the light that passed through the window hit the beautiful face of the girl... she opened her eyes slowly trying to sit up... she rubbed her forehead before whispering
the maid who was fixing the curtains looked at the lady..
May
is something wrong princess
Alice didn't answer.. she walked towards the mirror and asked as she saw her reflection
Alice

The maid understood that her lady isn't in a good mood... she replied immediately
May
after greeting his majesty and the queen... u have a tea party to attend...
May
Yes my lady... the tea party arranged by the noble lady Emma...
Alice
The daughter of the minster Gabriel... and the close friend of my sister Princess Catherina
The maid knew that tone in which Alice spoke... it was cold but was said naughtily as if she know what's going to happen in the party
Maya answered nervously trying to guess what her lady was thinking
After getting herself ready.... Alice walked towards the dinning hall where the imperial family was seated... she went in and looked at every face...
she knew what all were thinking.. she looked at the royally dressed Emperor... her father... she lifted her skirt a bit and bowed with respect and elegance... she said
Alice
greeting your majesty
Emperor Justus
u r late...
it wasn't out of concern nor any warning... It was just a plane sentence without any emotions in it... as if it was his duty as her father to ask
Alice
I apologize for my indiscipline
Alice said as she lift her head up and walked towards the empty chair... she looked at others who didn't gave any importance to her existence
the whole session was silent only the sounds of spoons and eating could be heard...
slowly the number of people present decreased as they left after having their breakfast
Not by blood
as Alice took her last bite she glanced at the lady who sat in front of her with a annoyed yet calm face...
Alice
what made my sister wait for me...
Alice said as if she already know the answer...
Princess Catherina
u better not get late for the tea party and make me loose my face in front of the nobles there...
Alice
is that a warning...
Alice said as she folded her arms crossing her legs starring at her sister who was annoyed to the core...
Princess Catherina
u don't get ahead of yourself... remember your place properly
Alice
my place... I am the princess of the kingdom... the royal princess.... the only girl child of the King and the Queen
those words were more like teasing.... the smirk on Alice face made Catherina more annoyed...
Princess Catherina
though u r the princess remember its just by name but not by blood.... u r just a poor little girl whom father adopted out of pity
Alice smiled at her sister's comment... she replied with the same attitude with pride
Alice
I didn't know that the emperor adopt any one out of pity... no wonder your mother was taken in as the concubine... seems like he even pitied lady Zora.. so kind of him
Princess Catherina
YOU.....
Cathrina pointed towards Alice who just gave a smirk... being helpless Catherina stomped out of the hall leaving Alice alone who watched her walk out...
May

Alice just stood up and walked out of the room with elegance and pride but with no emotions shown on her face...
