Hector Standing in front of my chamber was the con artist. The fool I have given enough chances to prove himself, and now I was snapping out. I couldn't keep hiding in the dark when I could just get out and claim what I wanted. "Did she like my cradle?" I asked, my voice sharp, void of any emotion. "Yes, Your Eminence, she liked it," he uttered, stuttering a bit. "Kia, I'm running out of patience, you know. When are you going to get Alexa to me as promised?" "I'm working on it, and in no time, I will have Alexa beside you," he cooed, trying to persuade me with his words. But I wasn't having it with him this time. "Bring me Alexa. In a week... Last chance. Now out of my sight!" He bowed fearfully as he left. Kendell He thought he could trap Alexa away from me? He must be kidding.
