CHAPTER 25

Does the truth displease you, huh? Then you should have reasoned first before killing the innocent and making people suffer!"

Slamming his fist against the table in front of him, Vidor bellowed at her in anger as the table cracked and collapsed under the force. "That is enough, Era!"

She was taken aback. The force and roar that came out of his lips when he did that was something she did not really expect. It was then she realized that she might have gone too far with how she acted.

Vidor's breathing was ragged. He was gravely enraged but looking at her, he wanted to do more than just yell and make her regret trying to undermine his authority.

"It angers you to hear me speak right?" She was not willing to back down.

She felt her heart clench just think of the horrors those children had faced especially little Anna who watched the brutal killing of her mother.

She was careful with nothing. Her heart was in pain knowing that the one she married was who brought so much misery to everyone.

Yes, she was not thinking rationally but right now she did not bother to care. All she knew was to vent out her anger and make him know that he was wrong.

This was due to the fact that no matter how many times she thought about it, he was still wrong on so many levels and she could not put her hand around it to figure out why his craving and hunger for more power was so insatiable.

Taking in a deep breath, she snickered at him with her head held high. "Of it angers you, then for once stop and think, what bitterness and anger reside in the heart of the people who serve you."

Vidor closed his eyes at that moment, trying his best not to roar again lest whatever leash held him broke and he forgets she was his queen and kill her there and there.

After all, there was nothing her people could do seeing that they were at his mercy.

"How dare you complain about my methods of ruling my people and the so-called wealth as you call it that you lavishly enjoy?"

"Lavishly enjoy? Do you think I want this any more than you do? Do you think I wish to be married or even mated with a monster such as yourself? Do you think I was not comfortable with what I had? Did I ask or so many lavish things?"

"Then don't use it and you keep forgetting your sorry excuse for a father, begged me to have you just to save his skin. You should be grateful to me and mind how you speak in my presence."

Her pride and dignity were hurt. Yes, her father did beg for people but that was not to save his own skin. Instead, her father dropped his pride and begged someone younger to spare the life of everyone.

To her, it was honourable because he did not choose to die in honour but wore the same proudly for his people and she was more than glad to be that sacrifice.

Yes, it seemed stupid that she agreed to it and now she says what she did. Unfortunately for her, she accepted her fate but seeing those children and the thought of the traumatic experience they might have had… All those further fuelled her anger and she lost it to him.

"Pour it in all you want, but know this, I would not stand for the suffering of people anytime, any day just because I want to live a lavish life and FYI, I am grateful that your maddening appetite for power did allow you to think for once and honour the pact for my people."

"I did not do it for your people nor because your father begged me."

"Then why did you do it? You cannot tell me, you did it because you were attracted to me." Era raised a brow at him.

She had actually been curious about this for quite a long time and now she had the opportunity to ask it. She knew quite well that him being attracted to him was not the case. So what was it, really?

"Hmmm, fine, since you are so eager to have your fragile heartbroken, it is my pleasure to. I did it to honour my father even if it meant doing the one thing I hated most."

Era blinked thrice. It was hard for her to control it because indeed it did break her heart.

It wasn't like she was hoping for anything with him but hearing your husband say marrying you was the one thing he hated the most…

She felt her eyes sting but she held herself back. She wondered what she did in this life to be cursed with a fate such as this.

"Let me make your head process this faster. I hate women. I hate the feminine gender and the last thing on earth I want to do is be with one."

"Then you should have…"

"That is all. Leave my room and never return. This should be the last time you ever barge in without following protocol and waiting for my approval to see you."

"So shall it be," Era said with determination.. Since he wanted it that way, she would be sure to keep it.
