My Emotionless Goddess

75



” The one and only.” The man replied with a grin. To say that Justin was shocked would be an understatement, he was beyond shocked. He felt like his brain was being fried in hot oil and his eyes probably covered with fog. He got to be dreaming. Peter was the last person he ever expected to betray the King. Even Nikolai was surprised by that revelation.

This was the man the King trusted with his security. He was the head of security in the castle and the king’s senior most bodyguard.

Seeing the shocked expression on Justin’s face, Peter was very much pleased with himself.

” You don’t believe it, don’t you, your highness?.. Oops! Sorry you are now longer eligible for that title. You are nothing but a pauper in the eyes of that stubborn Old Man. A chess piece in his Game just like how he treated us.” The man said tauntingly. His words were full of malice and bitterness.

” The King trusted you… You were like a brother to him. He never treated you as a servant…” Justin tried pointing some sense to the man’s barren brain. As long as he can remember, the King always treated Peter as an immediate friend and brother and not like a servant. So what could have prompted him to betray the King? That was something he would never understand even if he racked his brain for a thousand years.

” Oh shut up!” Peter interrupted him harshly. ” What do you know? Treat me like a brutgeri! Ha! That’s the joke of the year.” Peter spat bitterly. ” Everyday I have to wake up in the morning to protect him… Year to Year but what did he do? After everything I did to him, he only promoted me to the senior bodyguard. I worked so hard for him and this country, is that all am worth in his eyes.” The man was practically roaring like an angry lion at this point.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Justin chuckled bitterly. At this point, he Lost all hope of staying alive anymore. Even if reinforcement did come, they might only be greeted by their dead bodies. There was no Way they would escape this. They were doomed to die here today. The only regret he had in life was not getting married to Miranda Sooner and reproducing a small bun.

” At the end of the day, it was all about power. You are so hungry for power that you don’t rethink before betraying those who treated you as family. Do you think they won’t betray you the same way all of you have betrayed the King and this kingdom?” Justin questioned angrily.

” Oh shut up already, you are so annoying! Don’t preach on me, I know how to deal with my problems.” The man said irritated. Of Course he had an inkling that maybe he would be betrayed later on but that didn’t matter. What mattered was someone reminding that to him.

” Hand over the King to us and maybe if I am in a good mood, I might let you walk away safely.” The congressman said. Impatience was clearly depicted in his voice.

” Like I said earlier, OVER MY DEAD BODY!” Justin stood his grounds. If he was to die, he would die protecting the King. There’s no way he would let anything happen to the king as long as he was breathing. He would not forgive himself for that.

” Then so be it!” The congressman said, cocking his gun and aimed it at justin. All he needed to do was pull that trigger and everything would be settled.

” Wait a minute!” A loud voice bloomed at a short distance from where they were. A man dressed in a crisp Black suit marched towards the group. ” Congressman, how could you have fun here excluding me?” The man’s playful voice asked.

” Oh Mr Morgan, I didn’t know that you are interested in these kind of games.” CongressMan said fawningly.

” Oh I usually don’t. But I have a prey I intended to hunt here, so here I am.” The man said nonchalantly as if he just said he was checking up on people.

” Oh! So hood this interesting species that brought the almighty CEO down here?” Congressman asked curiously. It was not everyday the young CEO mentioned about preys nor associated himself with these kind of matters.

” I am here for the little Prince. I want to see how the crowned Queen will react after I send her a present of her lover’s boy’s head as a congratulations gift.” Daniel said and chuckled as if what he said was nothing serious. He was talking about a human’s head and not a bird’s.

His words of course surprised the CongressMan and Peter.

‘ Things are becoming More interesting. It turns out the little prince is still useful after all. Who would have thought that his bead-like brain could capture the Queen’s heart.’ he thought inwardly and started conjuring methods of using Justin as a leverage to keep the queen at bay.

” Oh! So the little prince is actually our Queen’s lover boy?” He asked meaningfully.

” You didn’t know?” Daniel turned to look at him like he was an alien. How could he not know but then he understood. Miranda was a secretive person, it’s hard to get through her. He was also surprised to know that Miranda was actually the king’s only child. They had hidden that fact so well. Impressive. He had to give it to them.

” I heard it now.” The congress man replied.

” Anyway, I am not here to chat. Just hand over the little prince to me and I’ll take care of him.” Daniel said. ” Too bad he has to die to pay for his woman’s sins.” Daniel said leisurely. He can still remember how he had to hide from the authorities. He still felt bitter after his freedom of roaming freely was snatched away from him. Since he couldn’t get to Miranda, the little prince will be sacrificed to satisfy his thirst for revenge.

” And who do you think you are to come and claim me as if I am property?” Justin finally talked. His voice, his face was grim. One could tell that he was almost exploding.

Daniel laughed briefly after hearing Justin retort. But that smile was wiped away quickly and replaced by an evil smirk. ” I can see that you have grown some balls, little prince.” He muttered dangerously but Justin was unfazed. ” I have always had balls but I doubt that about you.” Justin retorted.

” Do you believe I will kill you here right now?” Daniel thundered.

” I was wondering who was spitting threats here, it turns to be you Mr Morgan.” A sweet voice was heard and a silhouette walked leisurely towards the group. Seeing who just arrived, Justin breathed a sigh of relief. Finally
