“Princess Alicia is such a cheap @$$” Chelsea said.
“Why are you still putting princess in her name. The king already disown her” Winnie said.
“This is the most hottest topic ever said in the palace. Finally the proud princess is gone” Chelsea said and Winnie chuckled.
“I know right.. I pity the Queen though. She fainted on her spot when she heard the confession.. I knew right from time that Alicia only behave like a saint. Even when so many big men asked her hand for marriage, she decided to throw her bloody self to a person she just met” Winnie said shaking her head.
“I won’t lie the man is so handsome. I’ve never seen a beautiful creature like him, he’s scary though” Chelsea smiled.
“What do you expect from a Demon Lord?”
“He’s hot too”
“Are you going to throw yourself too?” She asked.
“No! What kind of mad talk is that?” Chelsea snapped.
“Remember he have a wife already so keep you eyes off if you don’t want to end up like a Alicia”
“No I won’t!” Chelsea snapped.
“You two keep quiet and keep on working if you don’t want to lose you d@mn tongue!!” Their supervisor yelled at them and they both shut it.
The confession of Alicia became the talk of the palace. It spread like wild fire but it didn’t get out of the palace according to the king’s order.
Dracula was in charge for her punishment.

“Mom” Scott went to meet Tiana, the place Dracula prepared for them to stay for night.
“Hey Scott.. did you sleep well?” She asked.
“Yes, what about you?”
“I did, you should go get prepared, we’ll be leaving soon”
“Hmm.. I have something to tell you” he said.
“What’s that?” She asked and Scott told her about him meeting his Dad, his new wife and his step-brother.
“Oh.. I see. I saw him too” she said and Scott eyes widened.
“What.. you did?”
“Yeah. I’m glad he’s alright, he seems happy” she smiled.
“You’re not upset?”
“Why should I be? He made his choice.. I can’t stop him. I’m fine dear, I really am” she said and left.
Scott stood in his place for a while before walking out of the room.
Immediately Tatiana got into the bathroom, she squat and started crying; It still hurts.
Lizzy happened to be around there so she saw Scott on her way. Her lips parted as if she had just seen a beauty.
“I think I’ve finally meet my soul mate.. the palace is not as boring as I thought” she muttered.
“What are you doing here?” someone asked behind her.
“Kyle” she mouthed.
Kyle traced her gaze and saw Scott. “You like him?”
“Mind your business”
“Where are you going?” He asked.
“I’m on my way to visit Alicia.. Gosh I can’t believe she did that”
“Why not? She confessed everything herself” Kyle said.
“I know you h@të her but don’t you feel for her?.. you’re such a cold hearted punk” she said.

“You alright?” Philip asked Tatiana when she came to the room where they were all waiting for her.
“I’m fine” she said and gave Scott a quick look.
“Since we are all here.. I would like scott and Diana to explain to us on what’s going on”
Scott and Diana looked each other before pouring everything out.
“He sees you as Martha?” Tiana asked and she nodded.
“And he didn’t kill you?” Kingsley asked and Scott glared at him.
“No.. he had saved me plenty times and he is currently trying to figure out who I am.. it’s complicated though” Diana replied.
“Isn’t this too risky?” Ciara asked.
“Dracula is not a cruel person. I’ve seen it myself” Scott replied instead.
“So he’s the one who did that to Jason” Tiana finally matches everything.
“He’s dangerous” Philip said remembering Dracula red eyes. He can never forget that day.
“He might be dangerous but he will never hurt me” Diana said with boldness.
“You look like his wife who betrayed him centuries ago and…
“Honestly.. I don’t really think Martha did betrayed him. I can feel it, there something wrong in that story and I’m going to find out” she said with determination.
“No.. Diana you’re going home. Staying here is totally risky” Tiana said.
“I’m not leaving” she said.
“Why not? Your mom is worried sick and your grandma won’t stop asking of you.. why do you still want to stay in this strange place?”
“Like I said, I need to find out who I am.. I won’t leave until I do so” she is also not ready to leave Dracula’s side.
“I’m staying too” Scott said and they all turned their eyes to him.
“Hell no!” Tiana shook her head.
“I can’t leave her here, I’ll be fine mom. Trust me, I’ve survived many times here”
“And that’s exactly why I’m not allowing you”
“I’m staying.. that’s final” Scott said while Tiana sighed. Her stubborn son is at it again.
“I’ll be staying then” she said and Scott smile disappeared.
“Me too” Philip said.
“Me too!” Both Kingsley and Ciara said at the same. They both look at each other and rolled their eyes.
“Okay.. we’ll help you Diana” Tiana said.
“Yes, thank you so much guys! I really appreciate. I’ll talk to Draco about your stay here, I’m sure he’ll be fine with that too” Diana squealed.
“Yes dear. What’s next?”
“Lilith” Diana called and they all turned to the quiet girl playing with her small white cat.
“Huh?” She seems surprised.
“Tell us everything about your mother. She seems to be in the past too.. don’t leave any details out” she said while Lilith could only blink.
