CHAPTER 45 - Next Plan
In the poorly lit room, two people are heard discussing in low tune but the to and fro movement of the man standing told a different story that everything was not okay.
"That was just the first problem," Fiona began. "I was so humiliated in front of all those ladies who would kiss my feet to get in my favour. Instead, Era made me a laughing stock before them."
"Hmm."
"Yes, father. Due to the fact that I scolded them, I was asked to bow and apologize to them, further humiliating me. Even some of the ladies laughed and that useless lady had the guts to caution me and scold me for not greeting Era. That even worsened my situation."
"And she dared make noise in the stables?"
"Hmm, that Era thinks just because she was made queen that she is now above everyone else."
"Hmm, I would prove to her that I am second in command and my word goes. Besides, when I am done with her, I would put her in her place. She would even beg for death but I won't give it to her so easily."
Taking in a deep breath, he exhaled sharply before bringing his hand to his jaw and resumed pacing.
"She escaped this time but not next time. I would ensure that."
"Father, please relax. You have successfully brought her down and kept her in her place. She should wait, I would repay her for what she has done. She must experience the humiliation I felt a million fold."
"Yes, my daughter. She would. Now let us put your good brain to use. Prove to me you are my daughter and think up the perfect plan."
"Oh father, do not worry your mind so much, I already have thought out the perfect plan
All I need to make the plan a master plan is your input and approval."
"Is that so?" Caspian's face lit up.
He had been too bothered that killing Mildred in Era's presence would cause so much commotion.
Even though he had called her a queen with an empty crown, he could not deny the fact that of a truth, for Vidor to marry her and make her his, he must have a certain likeness for her.
So if she went ahead to make a report, how then was he supposed to excuse himself if the king was to get angry and investigates the matter?
So all these thoughts were bothering his mind that he could not think out a plan to disturb Era again.
Rather his mind was set on how best to cover up their tracks. As though sensing his worries, Fiona spoke up.
"I know father's mind is busy with thinking of how to combat the issue and cover up our lapses, that is why I began to think."
"Yes, my darling. Unfortunately, father cannot help right now but know this, if we leave her alone, she would continue to spread her feathers wide and would in time come with ropes to tie our neck. The best thing is to cripple her and tie her wings, keeping her in check to avoid her reign over us."
"Understood, father. Just listen to my plan. Since our plan to take over Meribia failed, I made sure to align with some important people there who believe that King Elrad is not doing an efficient job and then they believe King Vidor would do a better job."
"Alright. So what are you using them for?"
"They have already sworn allegiance to us if we can promise to give them positions here when their kingdom falls."
"Hmm, great. I have taught you well. Your mother would have been proud of the woman you have become. You would be the first lady the king would like and you would move mountains because of it. Just you wait, my angel, father would make sure you get that crown that rightly belongs to you," he assured her.
"Thank you for your praise, father. No need to worry. I am not in a hurry. What belongs to me, would surely be mine, be her queen or not. She would watch as I wear my crown and she bows before me. So now, it is time to exploit that allegiance I spoke of."
Standing from her seat, Diona made her way towards where her father stood close to the window and brought her face close to his ears.
"The walls have ears father. That is why... "
"I understand. Speak to me," Caspian encouraged.
"This is the plan."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
