Siemus seemed to be hearing a biggest joke in her life. Her pace followed him like a little kitten and when his sudden confession came out, she halted in her track. Knitting her brows together, she blurted out impatiently,

" What!! No way!! I am not going in anymore..I better go back to Princess Isabella rather than accompanying you in the battle. I should stay single eternity rather than marrying a pussycat like you who plays with innocent woman like us everyday."

Frenchies postponed his walk towards the exit and a thin layer of darkeness appeared on his handsome face. Though he was merely teasing her, he never expected the she would be so bombarded after hearing his words.

Was it too bad to marry him? He was the most desired and undoubtedly handsome shifter lived in Basarisk ever.

He whipped his head back to Siemus who didn't move along anymore. As if he would really marry her, Siemus had a unreadable expression. She appeared like her death sentence had been heard.

Frenchies gritted his teeth harder than before. Watching his unfazed expression, Siemus questioned pouting her lips angrily,

" Why.. why would you choose such punishment huh? I am not going to be anyone's mistress ever especially yours. Your punishment sounded so mean. What if I really fail to stop those rogues? Then I will become your fiancee! No way! I am going back."

Siemus lifted up her feet to walk away then heard his hilarious laughter. Tilting her head aside, she found him laughing wierdly. Although the sound of his laughter had more velocity than the tower bell rang a few moments ago, Siemus felt like there wasn't any genuine sign of his happiness on the face.

Frenchies paused between his laughter and spoke raising his brows disbelievingly,

" Come on Oldie! Did you really think that I was saying seriously to you? No hell! Why would I marry such an oldie when I have hot chicks around? You have misunderstood my intention. I was trying to scare your spirit just."

Siemus scoffed back rolling her eyes and resumed her journey towards the exit,

" You scared me, pussycat.Don't ever make such terrible jokes."

[ Author To Frenchies: Bro,did you really joke with her? O_o ]

Frenchies only snorted and headed outside together to check out the current condition.

Meanwhile, Isabella was resting inside her room, unware about the sudden attack. After the physician had given her pain killer, she fell asleep. Isabella was having the most horrific dream of her life.

The day when her husband was hung death, she still had visions of that night. The plead look in his eyes, his desperate cries of forgiveness everything was written in her memories. She saw him running onto her and got on his knees. Such proud man actually got on his knees to save his life and said to her,

" Bella..Bella..I am your husband.. Please ask your brother to let me go for the sake of our child..Bella...You are my wife...You should stand with me.."

He begged and hugged her knees but Isabella was standing unmoved as if she had put a stone on her heart. She replied to him in an unfamiliar voice,

" I stand with justice..."

The dream wasn't fulfilled any further. Her nightmare broke off and she jumped off from the bed pesparising. Tears were rolling down through her cheeks. After panting for air, she looked outside at the foggy sky blankly.

How she wished that she wasn't born as Princess in this life! Perhaps she would have a perfect familiy like others!

Frenchies came out from the palace together with Siemus. When they arrived in courtyard, the guards who were assigned to protect the place had all come together. They stopped chattering when Frenchies made his appearance. In absence of Cedric, Frenchies was the decision maker of palace. Naturally others respected him and thought highly of him. Their eyes shifted behind the woman who had trailed off Franchies closely.

They wondered how this two womanizer men managed to seduce such beauties! Same like their lord!

The chief of guards bowed his head at Frenchies before greeting him respectively,

" Master Frenchies! A group is approaching us from north. When our spies noticed them from afar, they immediately sent us warning. I thought of ringing the tower bell so that everyone could be alerted."

Franchies stood in front of the men domineeringly. His presence was unleashing a different aura. Swiping his eyes across the men, he spoke in a powerful voice,

" Who are they? Any local gang group? How dare they plan to attack us? Do they think that Dixon Place is weak without Lord's presence?"

The chief's expression was uneasy. He sighed nervously before pursuing his lips together,

" I..I am afraid to say that they aren't any locals, Master Frenchies. From distance, we have assumed that they are a shifter group of DAVINA. I think that the last killing of their member has ignited this situation today."

Frenchies was stunned before blurting out furiously,

" DAVINA'S Shifters? Chief Commander Rodriguez, May I know how they got the news of Lord's absence in Dixon Palace?"

Rodriguez swallowed hard before shaking his head in denial nervously. Bowing his head down longingly, he answered in a fearful voice,

" I have no idea, Master. Even I was wondering like you."

Frenchies fell in deep thoughts. His murderous eyes shot up to look at the common guards around suspiciously. Grinding his teeth harder, Frenchies roared at the group of people enragingly,

" Then it is confirmed that there is a mole in our group who passed this news to DAVINA. Now they are aware that Lord isn't present in the palace, they came to attack us."

Siemus was horrified after knowing the news. If someone was passing such confidential news to outsiders, this palace was no longer safe anymore. Having a mole inside your own people is the biggest fear in a kingdom.

Besides, Princess Isabella was pregnant! But where did younger Princess Jessie went?
