Season 2: Episode- 142

  Season 2: Episode- 142   Alisa’s POV:    I smiled and said, “Brother… I promise, I will try my best to be there on your invitation on special occasion, I will invite you to mine…. but going away will be abandoning everything behind… I can’t do that…”   Forest said, “she knows to have her way…” Aiken smiled and he said, “I am disappointed… but… I will keep trying… anyways we got you a late birthday gift.”     He stretched his hands to Forest, and he kept a box in my hand. A big box.     Forest said, “This is the jewelry set, father planed to give Aunt… she never returned…. I thought you were rightful owner of this…”  Aiken said, “I kept Aunt’s picture there… you never saw her..” I opened the box hurriedly and I found a picture of her, My lips started to tremble…. My eyes got teary,  I couldn’t hide the cries in… I covered my face with my one hand, I don’t want to be seen in tears. I felt Aiken’s hand on my head, Forest was  on his knees holding my hand, as if they knew what I felt… and I don’t know what I feel…. this is strange…    I lost the fight with tears, Forest said, “it’s fine… you will be better…”   Aiken whispers, “she was prettier as you… same eyes…”   I heard Edwin, “One minute…” He turned me to himself, and made me look at him. Edwin said, “Alisa…” I embraced him without thinking. I cried silently… I can’t help these tears… they are in me.. I can’t run or hide…   the pain became suffocation, I don’t even know how to express.   Edwin said, “Alisa… it’s ok now...” I heard Aiken, “Arthur…. she trusts you, don’t hurt her…. or..I don’t want to warn you…”     Edwin said, “I care for her more than you… anyways, you can stay in my place.”   Forest said, “sure…. that sounds nice…. we rarely have holidays, Brother let’s stay here with for few days..”    I heard Aiken, “Let’s get out of here, they need privacy.”  I was still in Edwin’s arms, I don’t care… I just want to stop crying.    as the door closed, Edwin made me look at him and said, “Are… you fine?...”   I nodded, he wiped my tears with his fingers. I whispered, “Edwin.. stop being insecure…. don’t fear I will leave you… maybe I am angry on you, but even if I won’t go against grandpa… I won’ t be someone’s else.. I won’t love anyone….”    He smiled and said, “But… I want you to be with me… why aren’t you agreeing?”   I whispered, “No.. Edwin…. I can’t be with someone against Grandpa… I won’t be with you fearing will you return safe or not….. I… don’t know…”   Edwin said, “Whatever… …. that’s what I will say… Don’t push me to the point where I will forget I love, and go against you to keep me with me….. I am that kind person, I will marry you, till the end of this year… I promise…”   I wish … I wish it was true… but… Grandpa will never agree.    Author’s POV:                                Aiken and Forest were sitting in front of Chairman Scott. Forest said, “thank you for taking care of her…. she is better than we ever wanted…”    Forest said, “she rejected to come with us... we are disappointed, we could have gave her the world… father really wants to see her himself… but someone needs to be there and his doctor suggested not to fly..”    Old Man Scott said, “She is Scott.. this is her family, she won’t go away from here… she has a friends she loves… she won’t abandon anything..I am glad she is staying here.”     Old Man added, “the only problem is Prince Edwin… he keeps trying to take her away… I don’t like it…”   Aiken said, “We are ok with Arthur being with her, we know him. He is strong enough to protect her…. she will be the Queen if she marries him.”   The Old man said, “We all know he a heartless man, he can care about no one… he will hurt my granddaughter…I don’t want her to suffer..”   Aiken smiled and said, “You don’t know him… He never had a women, if he is interested in Alisa then, he cares for her more than himself… a real man he is… He won’t do anything to her,, yes. but he will do anything for her… we won’t find someone as him.”   Forest said, “He terrorized the people even without being there, he is something else… And Killing enemies is considered bravery… we prefer a Brave man than a well mannered coward… our sister will be safe…”    Aiken smirked, he said, “Chairman Scott… we respect you.. but this is our decision, Alisa is going to marry the man she loves… she searched for comfort in his arms.. that’s enough….  We will plan everything, just accept it…. Moral are never important as someone’s happiness…”   The old man looked at them hiding his worry. Aiken added, “We don’t want to see her unhappy with a man you will search, we want her to be happy with man she loves….. that’s order..”   Forest said, “At least Edwin will kill anyone who tried to hurt her or point finger on her… what more you want?.. a rich, strong powerful man.. who loves her… isn’t that enough?”   Forest got up and said, “We want the wedding to be held in our palace… we will glad to host it… we should get going now…”
