28

As I headed into the throne room I noticed the guards escorting me talking to some other guards which led to more guards surrounding me and every doorway. Security was doubled maybe even tripled, but I have yet to see Alexander.

I remember everything with the guard and Bethany. She murdered somebody out of pure anger. He was simply doing his job of protecting me, but ended up dying.

I entered the throne room and noticed all servants were immediately escorted (to better phrase, pushed) out the door.

Alexander say on his throne with a look of anger and disdain on his face, but it wasn't the one I was expecting. I don't think he knows about what happened yet.

"What do you think your doing?" He asked angry that his evening work was interrupted. I want to run and tell the guards to as well before they tell Alexander.

"My king, there was an attack," the lead guard said.

"When and where?" Alexander asked standing up fixing his sword that rested on his side.

"The royal chambers my lord," the guard answered before gesturing to me.

"Do you have the attacker in custody?" Alexander asked as his grip tightened around his sword.

"Yes, my lord,"

"I'll explain the rest, please wait outside," I said stopping the guard from angering Alexander any further. It would be better coming from me.

"Are you alright?" Alexander asked when the guards left.

"Yes, but Alexander the attack wasn't what you think," I said.

He gave me a questioning look not completely understanding.

"Alexander you must understand, you can't be too harsh on her. You are her only family left and..." I was cut off by the sound of Alexander's voice cutting me off.

"Bethany, my sister, did this?" He asked so viciously and harsh I stepped away without realizing.

"Yes, but Alexander please listen," I begged him to use his head for a moment and listen.

"No, no more. I should have never let you talk me into helping that snake. She will pay the price," he said as he walked to the door.

"Wait, what do you mean price? Alexander, what is going to happen?" I asked scared for the answer.

"Bethany has committed treason, she will face the price of death," Alexander said and walked out.

I stood still in shock.

Hey guys so little question does anybody remember if I gave Alexander a last name? If so what is it, and if not what should it be?
