King Leonardo Riario P.O.V.
As I left the remains of today's faculty to my right hand 'Triver'.The first prop that came to my mind was Gaia, oh Gaia my ravishing goddess I can still remember the first time I set my eyes on you at that soiree.
A second he felt an escruciating bitter taste and loomed.
Until my idiotic brother stole your heart first well , who gives damn now. He's dead.
Leonardo made his way to the isolated room at the end of the hallway.
Heaving the door open he's eyes caught on the protective mother holding her daughter as the important thing in the world as the little girl cooed in her arms as grief over her father's death.
He burst at a stream of lunacris laughter gaining the mother, daughter attention as he commented.
"Pathetic."
"Triver, " he boomed as his right hand trailed behind him as he ordered "take the little thing away it's nauseating."
His face wrinkled in disgust as Triver went ahead to pull Alexa out of her mother's arm who struggled and tried to fight back but was no match for a grown man as Alexa was dragged as the little girl didn't show any signs of attempt escape as she looked at her mother dead in the eye till she disappeared through the door.
......
Now that they were alone, Leonardo looked at her attentively as he sat on the plush one arm velvet chair as he signaled for the servant at the door who immediately went ahead to the wine cabinet at the corner of the room as she poured him a glass and excused herself as the door closed behind her.
After the long awaited silence Leonardo motioned her over with a voice of command "Sit."
With raging breaths, she sat on the plush mattress across him.
"Now Gaga. You know what, am gonna be very straightforward with you here. Be my Queen."
Her eyes flared at his pungency. " Have you no shame," as she looked over him in disgust and anger " I would never stand beside a treterous murderer nor an inconvenience like yourself."
She spat on his face in deciet and hatered. Leonardo cleaned it off and looked at her with raging standing up as he suddenly bent over her level grabbed her chin harshly and whispered to her ear shot.
" I wasn't asking Gaia so whether you like it or not I'm going to take you to that goddamn altar, marry you. You will become my Queen and satisfy my pent up desires as I bid them. Are. We. Clear."
" Or else that little shit you call a child is going for it."
Gaia with trembling lips after taking in a shaky breath answered in fear of her daughters life. " I...I...I will."
He let go of her as a not so gentle smile graced his lips as he patted her left cheek in a coaxing childlike manner. "Good."
As she breathed a sigh of relief.
There was another term of long silence before Leonardo quipped "Just so you know I my merciful way for you going against me, I'll be selling it."
" No." Gaia wailed as tears struck her eyes in full force as there was nothing she could knowing begging was pointless.
He left the room leaving her in her sorrows.
He walked down the hallway to were triver held the little girl and ordered. "Prepare the carriage sending the mutt to my slave transport unit."
Triver responded with a sly smile and a low bow in respect " Yes, Your Grace."
While forcefully dragging dragging Alexa out who obeyed without complaint.
