Did you guys miss me?
No??
Well, now that I'm back, I'll make sure you do.

So I have got an update plus some NEWS.

Firstly, Thanks to all those silent readers(I can feel you guys smiling silently*chuckles*) and Special Thanks to active ones. Without y'all it won't have been possible to get 1000 reads, votes and comments. So yes thanks to everyone out there who is reading my book and had patience to continue this book to reach this part.

I know it took me very long to update bc I had exams.

Now coming to NEWS part,
I have one good news and other one maybe little sad but let's see, shall we?

1. Updates would be frequent from now onwards and that means almost TWO updates every week.

2. I have noticed that my chapter lengths were really uneven so now it would revolve around 1200-1700.(is it a sad news? Maybe for who likes long chapters, do tell me if you want me to write big chapters)[this chp. including notes and everything is 1645 words]

............................................................

Recap :

We drove to Nelly's palace in Dad's Limo. Guards and Ken following us. Dad asked me have I met him and what I think about him. I just shrugged off cause I can't say he's good so that he will be relaxed or if say I find him suspicious than he'll be confronted, I didn't wanted that either. I excused myself before going in. I needed to check with Ken before David and dad excepts him. I asked Ken to stay while dismissing others.

.........................................................

"I didn't found anything wrong with him princess," He answered my unasked question.

"I really felt that there is something wrong with him. Hope I'm just over thinking and everything is right about him," I said walking in with Ken. Other than being my personal guard and friend, he treats me like his little sister.
I said this but still I couldn't place my trust cause I am so unsure about it. I thought now its time that I have to get information from his head. So I formed a plan in my mind whilst walking in, Plan was simple: make him fear so that he'll think about things he's been hiding and I'll get know it.

Greeting everyone out there and giving glare to Tom, as I wanted him to fear me so to know things he's hiding or at least memories would be easily accessible, we proceeded to dine. Everyone was already seated, His parents were also looking good in formal attire.

He was center of attraction, talking to everyone, Nelly's family even Mom, Dad, he was busy in replies, didn't had enough space for fearing and thinking/ talking to himself. His parents were seeming to be nice peoples. I heard their thoughts, it was like they were happy for their son, Nelly is really nice girl and they were so fortunate that their daughter in law would be royal. So they have relations with royals and even king's family. I just chose to ignore, it wasn't really giving me anything important other than assurance that Nelly can go and stay if she wants to, I mean they would treat her like princess the one she is.

I again glared Tom when our eyes met he thought,'Why is she looking at me so suspiciously-'

Before he could have continued with his train of thoughts,Nelly placed her hands on his shoulder.

Arghh! Curse you Nelly! I thought to myself.
My plan A, poof! wasted!

I definitely cannot rely on it, he won't be getting any free time and I myself can't just wait and waste my time.
So now it was time to go for plan B, for that I required mom's help to put thoughts in Tom's mind, I needed him alone. I eyed mom to connect me telepathically. At first, she wanted to know about what I was up to, then I gave her little bit of explanation, so she did as I wanted. I walked towards bar area which was not seen from here i.e. dinning table.

I sat on stool with wine glass waiting for Tom's arrival.

As he arrived there, I shot him death glare,"anything wrong with me princess?" his voice polite and tensed.

"Yeah. I know what are you up to," I said raising my right brow, smirk forming its way.

He behaved calmly heading towards glass and wine bottle, not meeting my eyes, "I don't understand what you mean. I'm not up to anything," though he behaved calmly but I can feel stress in air around him(his body radiating stress vibes). I snickered and Moving closer to him I whispered,"I doubt you are even Nelly's mate."

This time he met my eyes and it does had that anger, defensive and protective kind of feeling that I wanted to see whether they exist,yet it didn't convince me.
I held his gaze and entered his head. What I saw was Nelly, Money, Power. He wanted power and after they will get to mark each other his powers will be increased, he'll be part if royals. Besides he was planning ways to get loads money.

I wanted to reassure about mate thing, so I tried for previous memories of today, he was talking to his parents and in conversations he referred Nelly as his mate, also while speaking of that he has something different a good feel by the before I could have known more I felt some one coming over.

I took step back whereas he stood there as statue cause me getting into head zones out for while.

"What is taking you so long Tom?" Nelly called out walking towards us, "Kris you are here? I was looking for you all around" she said while taking wine glass out of Tom's hand. "We need to talk" she told me, giving a quick peck to Tom on cheek saying "I'll be back," and dragged me to her bedroom. I felt she was worried or stressed about something, does she doubts intentions of Thomas? So I asked her,"What happened babe?"

"What do you think about his parents, do they like me?" she asked looking at me intently like my words means a lot to her, yes they definitely do because I don't lie, pretentious sometimes, but we were always there for each other as James being such an asshole never did his job and was pampered more cause he's two years younger than me.

Just this! "Oh that's what is worrying you? Its nothing, they are really happy seeing you. okay? so stop worrying about that," I assured her.

"Oh you think so? Thank god!" She breathed in relief, pulling me in to hug.

We went back to dinning room, Nelly sat beside Tom, with a use of magic, I managed to push a knife enough which could give a Nelly a scratch, she winced Aaah..

"Baby are you all right?" Tom's reaction was quick and concerned towards Nelly, relief washed over me with a sight in front, Nelly's cut was already healing and Tom cleaned it with tissue while scolding her for not watching knife. I was happy. Part one of plan B was completed and he's passed.

I sent Dad and David text saying 'secret meeting at our place tomorrow before lunch.'

They both nodded.

A question popped in my mind that where was David when grandfather was killing me and mom? He's younger than Dad. She never mentioned of them! Since I was born I had seen Nelly as she is and she's hundred and eighteen. Where exactly were they?

"Omar had kept them away in safety." mom answered me in my mind, 'oh crap! I forgot to break connection between me and her so she had learned everything I had been planning and doing against Tom. Never mind I all ready was gonna tell Dad and David tomorrow. Doesn't matters much.'

"I'm happy that you're so concerned about Nelly," I gave her smile and broke telepathic connection.

Me, Nelly,James and Tom left dine leaving parents to have their talks and sat in garden area. It was dark and cool breeze blowing, its good that I twisted my hairs on my left side otherwise it would be complete mess, even concrete benches were cold because of it, but we didn't mind and sat there, Nelly sat in Tom's lap and James sat beside me on opposite bench.

"Whats next then?" James asked.

"About?" Nelly didn't get it.

"You guys going to get married?"

"Yeah we will," Tom replied for both of them. Nelly smiled shyly and hit Tom's chest, "hey but you never asked me!" then she turned to face us, "we have not decided anything yet, besides for your kind information- I'm not getting married any soon," she directed last part to Tom, colors from Tom's face flew away and I internally grinned.

"Okay as you say baby," he kissed her cheeks and was back to his old self, a cool Tom.

After chatting for while and getting information about their appointment with council in two days and then they can mark each other for eternity we left couple to have their privacy.

Dad and David are part of council but not me, I have kept myself away from it, reason is I was not offered with position with deciding power so what's point in serving?Na-na it's never gonna be me then.
