Tristan POV
My father thinks I'm an i***t, but little does he know, I know what he's up to with the Neba. I have also made my own arrangements with them that he has no idea about. I have every intention of going through with his marriage arrangement with Alicia Tate but as for the rest of it, he's in for quite the surprise.
I approached the Neba general my father has been in dealings with on my own. They were already disappointed with my father, especially after the destruction of their newest battleship by that moronic fly boy Kyle Shepherd. They were already planning on going back on their word with my father and I could care less. The arrangement I have with them only insures the safety of myself and Alicia as well, once I make her my wife. Most recently, she has been difficult to find but I know I will see her next week at the award dinner and that is where I will make my move.
Of course, I have no intention of staying faithful, she's only a means to an end. Once this pathetic planet is destroyed she will only serve to provide me with an heir and pleasure when I request it, she'll have no say considering we will be amongst the only humans left in the galaxy.
I also have some new information that no one besides myself has figured out. Captain Shepherd did not perish in the same explosion that destroyed the Neba battleship but instead he was sucked through the black hole into a new galaxy entirely. I'm not one hundred percent sure where exactly he is right now but it's only a matter of time before I find him and then give the information to the Neba. I'm sure they will appreciate the gesture and the chance to kill him themselves. This will only secure my future completely.
I suppose you could say I'm pretty proud with myself. Why wouldn't I be? I'm devilishly handsome, quick witted, and rich and soon to be the most successful if not the only human male left in the galaxy. I will also have a beautiful woman on my arm and a few more on the side which will only complete the package. f**k this planet, I'm ready for my payday!
I'm done living in the shadow of my father and his vast wealth, it's my turn to rise and take my rightful place as the head of this family and his organization!
I'll have to play the dutiful, obedient son for only a little longer, but once my deal with the alien general is finalized, I will finally be able to make my move!
