Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

"There is not trust to regain. She is my sister, I know her better than anyone. Do you know how many times she tried to kill me while we were growing up? I will not reveal the presence of the princess until I am sure she won't kill me or until I am in situation where I need it to use that information to save my life."

"I don't . . ."

"I will not give them a reason to start the war sooner than expected. The earlier it starts the earlier we become useless and a threat that knows her secret. We become a weed she needs to uproot to protect her plan."

"The war you are talking about, what is it about?"

"Hmm," the woman simply smiled watching the sun go down.

.

"Who is she fighting the war against?"

"It is not just her alone. They are fighting against but the powerful and the powerless. Bloodshed will begin and a war for revolution will begin. It might not be a normal war but people will die silently. It is war they planned even before my sister and I were given birth to. B country . . . tsk"

"Who is the war against? What are their names?" he asked anxious for an answer. He was getting impatient as she kept going in circles.

"Don't worry. We are too insignificant for a war to be fought because of us. We might die in our sleep. Their names will be known soon but that will be after their death. Either after they kill the princess or after the princess kill them. They will find the princess on their own but by that time; it will be too late to kill the princess like an insignificant person. It is almost impossible to do that even at this moment."

"Hmm that is right," the man nodded in relief. "I will protect you," he assured her wearing a sad smile.

When she saw hum relax, she knew he did not understand what she said so she decided to say something that will help him forget about the war she mentioned. "I have done a lot of bad things and I am still alive perhaps I won't die so easily." The woman laughed in a gentle manner with the back of her hand covering her mouth slightly.

"When the princess takes over, she will kill you too," the man said.

"You said you will protect me. Just protect me like you said you will and I doubt if the princess makes it. There are too many people trying to kill her. If she takes over, then the future will take care of itself." The woman sighed.

"Are you sure?" Liam asked his most trusted subordinates.

"Yes sir," the three young men agreed with a second thought.

"A you going to betray the Hart family?" Liam asked to make them sure of their decisions although he knew they will go with him even through fire and brimstone.

"Yes sir," the three young men chorus.

"We started something together during the past couple of years and it is only normal we go with you to complete it," one of them said with a bright boyish smile his eyes shining bright with confidence.

"We are meant to stand with you always either in the Hart family or anywhere else," another said adjusting the reading glasses he wore.

The third person standing in front of Liam only nodded his head in agreement with his almost expressionless face.

"We should leave. It is time," Liam said nodding his head. He patted the guy wearing the glasses on his shoulder as he passed by. He only wished none of them will suffer too much because of his decision to turn against his family for his own selfish interest.

"The young master . . ." the guy with the bright smile started but stopped with his smile disappearing and he stared at his boss and friend with a worried look. "Should I check on him?"

"Do you know where his room is?" the guy with the reading glasses asked with a frown as he stared at his friend.

"Don't look at me in that manner. I am the only one that gets along with the young master among the fo . . . no three of us," the guy replied with a smile of pride on his face. He scratched his head rumpling his brown hair that looked just like the fur of a lion when he met Liam gaze.

"Let us go," Liam said in a monotone voice as he took the steps down stairs. He was not sure he was going to be able to leave if he faces his brother. Jace must hate him right now but he hoped to be able to fix everything when he returns. He only hoped his younger brother will remain the kindhearted boy he is now only getting bold to protect himself as the new heir.

Liam paused at the door and looked back at the home he lived in for over a decade and sighed. He was sorry but there was nothing he was not willing to do to get Rose on his side. He had his own selfish interest to satisfy and even the Hart family won't stand on his way.

***

Jace who was typing on his keyboard as fast as he could with the sound of its keys filling the whole room suddenly stopped and stood up from the seat he sat on for more than a couple of hours. He glanced at his wall clock it was about time for his brother to leave. He ran to the window and pulled the white curtain aside and stared down.

Below, he brother was about to enter the car that will take him out of the Hart family perhaps forever. He watched his brother pause and looked up. He was shocked at first and closed the window hurriedly taking a step back from the window.

After taking a deep breath, he returned to the window but his brother was now in the black tinted jeep and he could not see his brother. He had a feeling his brother will returned to find him but when the jeep began moving towards the gate he knew his brother had truly betrayed him and the Hart family.

He sniffled as he kept warning his very fragile heart to not get heartbroken. His crush was in the hospital and he was trying had for hours to get the videos of the whole incident from the CCTVs but he was not making any progress. Whoever did it made sure to clean all their traces and the person was a better hacker than he was and he might ever be.

His brother was the best but he could not ask his brother who was abandoning him over a girl and his own selfish interest for help because that brother of his will not be willing to help him. He felt like the most useless boy in the planet over Anna's issue and felt like the most unloved brother and child over his brother's issue.

He had a dark thought wishing it was Rose who went through all Anna went through because she had a lot of people around her who will be willing to help her. None of his family member's cared about Anna although her adoption was arranged by his father. As soon as he took note of what was on his mind, he shook his head furiously. It was a taboo to wish bad for the princess.

There were a lot of things he did not understand and that made him more frustrated than he had ever being in his life. He did not realize he was on the floor crying until he had to stand up as his legs began feeling numb and the tears wetting his cheeks as well as the cloudy feeling of his eyes that he had to wipe off brought him back from his thoughts about how miserable he was.

He decided to tick today on his calendar as the most miserable day of his life. He dragged his weak body as the event in school that made Anna pass out replayed on his mind. He wished he was close by. It should have been him.

He should have been the person to help her with the first aid but that stranger took his place and placed his disgusting lips on his precious Anna's lips. The stranger saved her life but he did not like that fact. He wanted to be the one to make Anna indebted.

He really wanted to find the bastard that hurt Anna and drag him before Anna after beating him to a bag of mashed flesh.

He could not make that happen when he could not even trace the person because the person was better than him. He dragged his feet to his bed and fell on the soft bed that immediately embraced him but it was too cold which made him frown a little.
