Love Agreement With The King

A matter of few minutes before few people gathered in front of the playbill, their faces assumed a shocked puzzled expression like if they had read the most disconcerting puzzling shocking news they ever read and indeed that was probably the worst thing they imagined to read.

"I can\'t believe it was false..." A woman murmured and the few people began to gaze at each other in disbelief.

Some women, probably the mothers of the ladies who wanted to conquer the prince\'s heart were furious. Others the most devoted to the realm were shocked and disappointed as they believed that John with his gesture had ruined the reputation of the Kingdom.

Seining the shock and the disbelief that was evident in the people\'s faces more villagers gathered there and in few minutes around 20 people were making room through the crowd to read better.

They began to comment, some people couldn\'t even believe to their eyes, others were so mad that they claimed if they met Roselyn they would kill them for having accepted to do such a thing and being so disrespectful in the villages regards. Was the couple so reckless?

Soon more people gathered while the ones who already read the shocking news walked away probably to spread the news themselves.

Lord David gazed at the scene in all his pride and joy to see his plan being satisfied and it even went better than he imagined. \'Maybe I finally was paid for all the hurt he had been put through emotionally and physically.

He said in a lower voice as he speeded back to the castle.

Until…

he bumped into something or better someone who just the slam made him bounce back and fall onto the ground, when he gazed up he met Ethan\'s gaze.

David frowned before bowing his head down, "hi... my man… you should be proud of me you don\'t know what I did." David said proudly as he kept gazing at John\'s brother with his shining eyes.

"What have you done?" Ethan asked when a resigned breath escaped from his lips. His voice was both annoyed and preoccupied. He probably was wondering if he should be preoccupied or just bother to find such a loser would still be alive.

"I found out that Roselyn and John agreed to marry under some circumstances so that they both would eventually reach their purposes in life."

Hearing David\'s words Ethan shook his head, "it can\'t be."

But David smiled even more grabbing Ethan\'s shoulders and shaking them. "Trust me. I stuck the agreement\'s papers to the village\'s playbill. Check it yourself."

Ethan\'s groaned showing his long sharp fangs and David for the fright soon took his head away from his shoulder to swallowed down in fear when Ethan yelled, "what have you done??"

Why was he scolding him? David wondered, for how much he remembered he hated John and was willing to do anything to bring him down. And what he had done would be a great way to cause him trouble.

"You\'re a failure. You\'re going to ruin their lives!" Ethan scolded groaning loudly.

David\'s eyebrows curved down as he stuttered, "th-that\'s wasn\'t th-the pl-plan?"

Ethan pouched him so strong on the throat that he had been thrown few meters afar leaving him unable to breathe. David\'s hand gripped around his neck trying to catch his breath as he began to cough for the strong pouch he received.

Before David turned around to stare at Ethan he already was disappeared and headed into the village, everyone was already talking about the shocking news, and seemed like they even forgot about the scandal that King William was alive since the worst more shocking news was spread and now was being spread faster than light.

He groaned, he felt sorry for John and Roselyn, there must be some sort of explanation. When people finally walked away he managed to speed and as quickly as he could he rip the agreement papers off.

When back to the forest Ethan skimmed through it and read it quickly, he wasn\'t as lucky to receive the privilege to learn how to write or read since he had never gone to school but when he spent his days wandering around the forest he managed to learn how some words were written and read when he sneaked inside the school or spied through the windows their English classes.

From what he managed to read it truly seemed like a contract stipulated by Roselyn and John.

He pinched his forehead in a preoccupied facial expression and took a long breath before speeding once again toward Kratez. He had to tell Roselyn and John what he found out and the news that had been spread.

He knocked over the door and waited until John opened the door. John welcomed him inside and when his gaze fell over the familiar paper he became paler than usual and his eyebrows knitted down, John felt his heart beating so fast and collapsing heavily inside his chest leaving him almost unable to catch his breath. It wasn\'t hard to imagine what may have happened.

"What..." John said with a broken voice as the lump in his throat was drying his mouth and leaving him almost unable to speak.

"David… found this, somehow… and stuck it over the playbill of the village… Some people already saw it and..."

John dropped his jaw and widened his eyes, he took a long breath to maintain the calm as now all he could see was red for the fury that made his blood boil through his veins. He thought David was dead. If he had him now in his hands he would make sure to kill him at least ten times after what he had done.

John massaged his head before calling Roselyn to reach them, he felt tears tingling his eyes and like if he could burst into tears and explode from both miserably and fury at the same time. Now that they finally found his peace and tranquillity with Roselyn, David find a way to ruin it.

Roselyn reached them with a bright smile on her face probably not expecting such a terrible thing to happen.
