"There will be a feast today,in honor of you and Lisanai"Azron stayed silent as his father spoke.
He didn't see why his father was so excited,he didn't see what his father saw in the girl.
"Be dressed properly Azron,for she will be introduced as yours this night"
Azron nodded before he left the throne room,his mind unhappy but he couldn't act disrespectful in front of the King, father or not.
~~~~~~~~~
"Have you heard,my dear Lisa,there will be a feast today in honor of you and the prince"Lady Anaina clapped happily.
"Yes auntie,I'm excited, how should I dress?"
"You will be dressed to impress today Lisa,my dear,the prince will have to fall for you?"
"Yes auntie,thank you"
"Here take this" Lady Anaina brought out a off shouldered red lacy dress, that showed off enough cleavage,the red dress was alluring and deeply Lisa wanted the prince to think of her as alluring.
She collected the dress from Anaina,placed it on her bed and left the room with Anaina.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Azron walked into the throne room, the beautiful lights glowing,all the ministers and noble men were here,his eyes scanned the room, looking at Lisanai with her red dress that could turn the heads of many men.
His lips tugged slightly when he remembered how he had told Aviva he wasn't like most men.
His eyes landed on his father,who beckoned him to sit beside him,he walked over to him,all eyes gradually turning to him.
Once he reached,the King cleared his throat"dear beloved,I have called you all here to celebrate our son and daughter,Miss Rana and my son Azron."
The room erupted in cheers as everyone clapped.
He noticed his mother,sister and brothers were not present,they didn't support the idea of an arranged marriage.
"Cheers to the beautiful union"the King toasted.
"Cheers"the room responded as they began drinking.
"My prince, where is your drink" Lisanai asked when she realized that there was no glass in front of him.
Azron didn't answer but called a maid to bring in his drink.
The maid served the drink to him,he took the glass and started drinking.
He had barely reached half when he felt there was something wrong with the drink.
He excused himself, leaving the celebration that was still going on.He went outside,the cool wind blowing past him cooling his increasing temperature,he felt dizzy.
He started walking to his room.
"Lisanai dear"
"Yes auntie Anaina"
"Follow the prince to his room and strip for him"
Lisanai looked shocked"why auntie?"
"Just do it, you know auntie always wants what's best for you"
Lisanai nodded and went to the prince's room, opening it,she found Azron sitting on the floor,his back against the bed,one knee propped up,his elbow resting on it.
His previously closed eyes opened when he heard the door open,he watched in shock as Lisanai wordlessly started stripping.
"What are you doing?"he growled.
She didn't answer but continued until she was only in her undergarments,
she walked over to him and stood in front of him.
Azron knew he had been drugged,his body reacted as he saw her stand in front of him.
The drug was strong,the more he tried to control himself,the more he felt his body was burning.
He clenched his fist and closed his eyes trying to ignore the pain that was gradually becoming unbearable.
"Don't start something you can not finish Lisanai"Azron spoke in a cold tone that sent shivers up her spine.
"Oh Azron,who told you I can't finish it"she didn't know where the courage came from as she squatted down to him.
His eyes roamed around her body, lingering on her matching lacy red underwear.
She leaned into him,her lips hovering a breath away from his,her hands roamed his shoulders,her eyes clouded with desire,desire for him.
She was about to kiss him when a tentacle rammed her to the wall keeping her in place.
Azron ignored the unbearable pain in his body,he clutched his shoulder as he struggled to stand up.
"I said don't start something you can not finish"he growled,gold colored eyes glowing menacingly.
Tears filled her eyes"My prince please don't do this,I'm sorry"
He ignored it and pressed her further into the wall channeling the pain into anger.
He stopped when he realized the consequences of his actions,he didn't have evidence that he was drugged and Lisanai was also a Minister's daughter, although he didn't like her,he didn't like trouble more so he released her.
"Get out"he spoke to her,she wanted to protest but he snapped at her.
"I said get the hell out"
She stood up clutching her clothes in her hand,she ran out.
Anaina frowned as she saw Lisanai run out, she had intended to drug Azron and send in Lisanai, hoping that she would get pregnant but she knew it had not worked out as she saw the girl running out crying.
She went over to Azron's room but his door was shut tight.Her frown worsened before she left the front of the door, walking in the direction Lisa had run off.
~~~~~~~~
Azron paced around his room,he had decided he wasn't going to stay in the castle,he would go to the cave of treasures,he packed his things, keeping them ready,he decided he would inform his mother,sister and brothers before going.
He left his room heading to his mother's room,he held his hand to knock but stopped midway.
He heard his mother's voice,she was shouting at someone,he leaned his ears to hear what she was saying.
"How can you do that Azazel?,after everything arranged marriages have done to us, you still want your son to experience it,do you still love him,no you don't,I know you regret marrying me but don't take it out on my children, don't you dare Azazel"
Azron listened carefully,she was shouting at his father,no one shouted at the King but she was doing it because of him.
"Enough Camille"he roared and Azron could swear his mother froze"you have no right to talk to me like that, have you forgotten who I am,let me remind you I am Azazel Razenara,I am the King of the dark faes,you can not and will not speak to me like..."
"Bullshit you hear me, Bull..."his mother was interrupted by a slap on her face.
Azron couldn't take it,he barged in,his eyes took in the situation,his mother was holding her right cheek, surprised,she didn't cower though,she still glared at the King.
"Father,what are you doing?"he shouted,he couldn't bear the fact of his mother in pain.
His father didn't respond but a sliver of remorse flickered in his eyes.
"What's going on here?"
They all turned their heads to see Kayana as well as her brothers standing by the door.
"What's going on here?"Kayana repeated herself glaring at her father.
"Az,what happened to mom?"Levi asked as he walked over to his mother.
"Father slapped her"Azron said through gritted teeth.
David frowned as he heard that,he looked at his father"why?"
His father didn't respond.
"I asked why dammit,why did you raise your hand on her,isn't not loving her enough,why'd you still slap her?"he shouted.
His father opened his mouth to speak but Azron beat him to it.
"Don't bother,you can leave,I hope you're happy"his voice was cold and the King could swear the atmosphere dropped.
He cleared his throat and spoke"it's like you all have forgotten I am the King"
"Save it,being King doesn't mean you can raise your hand on your wife"Levi spoke.
The King looked at them before walking towards the door,he stopped at the door"Camille,I'm sorry"before leaving the room.
His words surprised all of them because they were not used to him apologizing.
"Mother don't worry,we are always here for you"Kaya spoke once her father had left.
Her mother didn't respond,she was frozen in place,sure she knew the King didn't love her but she didn't expect he would raise his hand on her.
Azron looked at his frozen mother and frowned,all this was happening because she was trying to support him"mother,why did you do that"he spoke.
He was angry, angry at himself for allowing this to happen to her"you shouldn't have spoken to him about me,I can survive it,I don't want you supporting me if it means you will get harmed"
"She confronted father about the arranged marriage between you and the Minister's daughter, didn't she?"Kaya spoke up and Azron nodded.
"Mom,we love you,we can protect ourselves,please,it breaks our heart when you get hurt because of us"Levi told her.
Camille smiled as she heard what her children were saying,she loved them, more than anything.
"I'll always support you children,no matter what,I'm your mother, it's the least I can do"
Azron finally remembered why he had come here in the first place.
"I'm going back to the cave of treasures"
"Again but you just returned, can't you stay for a little longer"Kaya spoke.
Azron shook his head"No,the King wants the research team to enter there and I am needed for supervision"
David and Levi nodded understandingly"come back soon brother"
Azron nodded,he looked at his mother who seemed conflicted but still nodded,she looked at him and spoke"be safe my dear,I love you"
"Love you too mother"he replied her before he left the room going back to his room to pack his things.
He picked up his bags, taking a look around his room again,he closed his eyes and teleported to the cave.
