As soon as they were led into a private room.
Ciara couldn’t contain her happiness and so she began to dance an off beat dance which earned her a frown from Reagan.
“What’s making you happy ?” He asked as he sat on the sofa and immediately she turned to him her eyes bubbling with happiness.
“The fact that I don’t have to marry you is what has got me feeling excited” she said grinning like a fool.
“And what makes you think that?”
“Didn’t you hear your mom…aah! I mean the queen. She specifically made it clear to you that I can’t marry you, you’ve got to listen to her, she’s your mom and she knows what is best for you, all mother’s do” Ciara stated.
“Just like your mother did before she gave you to me” Reagan taunted.
“Let’s leave my parents out of this and focus on the important thing which is that your mother doesn’t approve of me. You should listen to her and let me go now cause you….” A gasp escape her lips as he pulled her onto his laps, tightening his hold on her.
“I have no intention of listening to my mom and neither do I have any intention of letting you go. I chose you to be my bride and you will be my bride” he said with intent.
Ciara was taken aback by his words and she sat starring at him, lost by the beauty of his face.
She tried to get off his laps only for him to pull her back.
“Can you let go of me?” She asked slowly.
“Not until I make it clear to you that there’s no way out and that you will end up being my wife in every way” With that said Reagan swiftly pinned her on the sofa while he hover over her.
“You are mine Ciara and no one else ” he said before claiming her lips.
Ciara tried to fight him off but he easily made her succvmb to his kisses.
His hands strayed all over her body, familiarizing himself with what will become his in the nearest future.
Ciara couldn’t help but to feel pleasure by his caress.
Never have she felt this not even with her ex boyfriend, she thought as she suck in a gasp when he suck on her throat.
She was about to ask for more when the door open revealing Regina.
“Oops! Am sorry for intruding” Regina said when she saw her brother and his wife to be making out on the sofa.
“Since you know you are intruding, you might as well leave” Reagan let out gruffly but Ciara stopped her knowing that once she leaves, Reagan will continue with his seduction and she won’t be able to stop him.
“Come in. You came to see me right?” Ciara said hurriedly as she went to Regina.
“I did but if you are…”
“We are not. Reagan is just about to leave” Ciara said wanting him to take the cue and leave but Reagan chose to stay which got her feeling more unedge.
But luckily for her, Willow came to take him away which got him leaving the room.
“My brother can be unbearable some time” Regina said as soon as Reagan left.
“Quite unbearable. Am glad I found someone who thinks just like me” Ciara added which got Regina laughing.
“Am glad that you are marrying him, he really needs someone by his side” Regina said which got Ciara looking away in guilt.
“Why does he need someone by his side when he has you and your siblings?”
” Just so you know. Me and my two brothers were not born by the queen mother”
“Our mother was the King’s concubine while the king and Princess Elvira are the only children the queen mother gave birth to”
“Due to this there’s been feud amongst the family which often weigh on the king which is why am glad that you are by his side, you will certainly make a perfect queen” Regina said.
Ciara could only nod to this cause she didn’t know if she will be pushing through with the wedding.
Now more than ever, she has to find a way to get out of this before she sink in deep.

A while Later, Ciara was being shown around the palace when Elvira came to join them.
“You can leave, I will continue touring her around” Elvira said to the head house keeper who gave a bow before leaving.
“Excited about being the queen?” Elvira asked.
“To be sincere it makes me feel strange. Just yesterday, I was living my life until I met his Majesty” she said having being told by the head house keeper to always refer to Reagan as his Majesty.
“So your story with his Majesty is one of being swept off your feet?” Elvira probe wanting to know more.
“Something like that” Ciara replied mildly.
“Why do I feel that there’s something more? ” Elvira asked.
“What can I be keeping from you?” Ciara asked in return hoping she didn’t notice some thing but the cunning Elvira did.
“You aren’t really in love with my brother right?” She asked suddenly.
“Of course I am, why would you think….”
” Do not lie. A girl who is eager to marry will be enthusiastic but you don’t show that sign at all”
“Tell me, is my brother forcing this marriage on you?” Elvira asked.
“Well he…he is” Ciara confirmed with a resign sigh. Some how she felt Elvira is the only who understands her.
“And you certainly don’t want this marriage right?” Elvira asked again which got her nodding in reply.
“Do you mind if I help you?” Elvira asked.
“Help me? Don’t tell me that you plan to stop this marriage. Reagan won’t allow it and he will be very angry if he finds out that….”
“I don’t intend to stop the marriage, I also don’t want to get my brother angry but he can’t force you into something you don’t want which is why am willing to help you escape” Elvira suggested.
” Escape? Won’t that be risky. I once ran away but he found me ”
“Don’t worry. The plan I have in mind will certainly get you far from him before he can do a thing to stop it. Do you want us to begin now?” Elvira asked which got Ciara thinking for a while.
“This is the only chance you’ve got at escaping and it’s the best” Elvira said which got Ciara agreeing.

A while later, Ciara made way to the throne room where she knew Reagan was having a meeting.
Willow announce her arrival to him and at first, she thought he would send her away but she was surprised when she was ushered into the room.
There was no one else present in the apart from Willow who left the room to give them privacy.
“I was told by the house keeper that I will be assign to little task like this and so I thought of making you one of my specialty” she said as she place the plate of hamburger in front of him.
“This seems fishy? Hope you didn’t poison it?” Reagan joke which got her pulling a long face.
“I didn’t ” she answered and was a little Surprised when he took a bite out of the hamburger.
Odd, Elvira had told her that one thing Reagan h@tës most in his life is hamburger.
Seeing the snack alone makes him angry and that had been their plan that he gets angry which will lead to a row between them and then Ciara will get the chance to be by herself and that’s when Elvira most trusted guard will come for her and help her leave the palace.
“Do you like it?” Ciara asked watching him with surprise.
“I do” Reagan replied.
” But I was told that you h@të eating this” Ciara blurt out.
“Who told you that? Hamburger is one of my favourite….” He stopped talking when he suddenly cough out.
“Are you okay? Do you need water ?” She asked as she was about to pour him a glass of water when he siezed her hand.
“Who exactly told you to do this?” Reagan asked looking serious.
“Your sister”
“Which of my sister?”
“Princess Elvira, she told me that I…”
“What did you put in the hamburger?” Reagan asked as he found it hard to breathe.
“Just the normal stuff, are you okay?” She asked as she moved towards him cause he was coughing profusely.
“Reagan are you….Argh!” Ciara let out a scream when he cough out blood.
“Reagan! Someone help me” Ciara yelled for help and immediately Willow came running in.
“What happen?” Willow asked.
“I don’t know, I brought him a hamburger and….”
“What exactly did you put in it?” Willow asked.
“Nothing, just the normal ingredient” Ciara replied which got Willow pulling a suspicious face.
“What’s wrong? You do know why he’s like this right?” Ciara yelled at him while holding onto the unconcious Reagan.
“He’s been poisoned ” Willow answered.
