Chapter 36

Vixen moves from one place to another as she's in her house now, her father is quite angry and he will not look at and neither will he speak to her. She is somewhere around the room in the house, hoping you talk to him and make him understand that this is not the time for him to be angry.Or instead he should find his fault in this situation and make amends because he there was a need for amendments between him and his daughter. He was supposed to support and know how she really felt about that which has been happening in her life or that which she has kept on for some reason.Vixen feels so much appreciated by her stepmother. Nevertheless, she did not think that her step mother would stand up to her in such a moment. It fascinated her.Her step mother would be the last person to do that because she was always one to advice and always just kept telling Vixen not to forget the families honor and all of this bullshit but right at this moment; her stepmother is actually doing what a real mother may have perhaps done in this situation. Vixen has seen a good in her. It would take a lot for her father to come into understanding about what she really went through with such silence and every time she subdued herself and bended to an alliance.Yes.She always said as she moves from one room to the other and Emerald rushes into her room and there is something quite different on her face as she stands in front of Vixen."Vixen." Emerald says and Vixen looks at her.Hoping that there is something that she would say that gives her relief to all that is going in."General Hunter is here and he wants to see you." Emerald says in response and realizes that her Father is not aware of it that easy and weird because Hunter is here.Hunter is waiting for you downstairs in the gardens behind the kitchen. I will be on the lookout for the both of you. Emerald says and Vixen rushes to go and meet him. She comes out of the kitchen and Hunter is standing right in front of it to her.She faces him and looks at him in surprise.Hunter, she says as he steps right in front of her, and really he feels the need to embrace her after seeing our she show some some sort of affection towards the mother King's court. He can tell that she's really interested in his safety and that makes him look at her in a new light that he never saw in her before.And so it changes the way he views her, literally it changes something and even he doesn't realize it."David is coming here; he wishes to put you on house arrest, at the castle." Hunter says.What? What does that even mean? He is kidnapping me! Vixen's finishes the sentence and she looks at him.We have to leave! Hunter says to her as he looks around the surroundings.Where would I go to? If I leave my house where exactly do I want to run to, I cannot run from the King. She says to the man who looks at that as her and watches.Perhaps, it is time for her to do the needfulDo you mean to marry me? He asks and she looks at him, she doesn't understand a word that he says even if they've spoken about it numerous times that this is what would happen." I cannot believe that we'll be making such a hasty decision." Vixen says.Once again she doesn't really know him and she fears that perhaps he's even irritated and annoyed by all and every word that she speaks. He has already said so in the past about her and now to marry her?That is a solution. To turn it all in their favor and make sure that nothing whatever Lord Nathan speaks would not be believed."This is quite too farfetched". We must end the alliance and thereby stopping whatever Lord Nathan has planned to tell to the king. Who knows lord Nathan must have said something to push this...I can only guess that it has happened and I know as much as this sounds like the impossible solution. Vixen says" Today, I fear that my father would misunderstand the whole point of this after breaking it to him." Not that I did not care for the king and what he thinks about my decision.Listen, this is not the time to think about your father and all that is perhaps something selfish to say but this is a time for you to think about yourself. The king has asked for your hand…to be forced into marriage.What do you think your father would do? Would he join that alliance? Or rebuke it? He doesn't even understand what you're doing right now, he thinks you're revolting. He thinks you're immature about the situation. He says and she looks out the kitchen, she realizes that he is right.I'll come with you. She says and Hunter holds her hand and the moment they are ready to exit them. The compound is packed with warriors of the King including the king himself as they enter into the environment and there is no way for them to simply get away as vixen and the rest have been surrounded by the king's guard.Vixen holds onto his sleeve as she begs that he would not allow her to be taken away. No. vixen says and the King gets down from his horse and all the guards he has brought along with him. Hunter can see that they are ready To fight at the command of the king and he can tell that this is a fight that he cannot win even. If the king were to come into his place where he had his own warriors like, he would have won this fight but not here.David. Hunter says and he doesn't even put respect towards it when he see him at this moment he simply calls him, David.You can't do this. He says and David does not respond to him immediately. David smiles as he begins to walk towards them and he stands in front Hunter."Vixen and I have a lot to talk about. I will really appreciate it If you step away because I don't know wish to cause blood spill today. The last thing I want is for the people of Southland to accuse me of killing the ones who saved my people." So, listen and listen very well.I would advise is that you take momentary precautions and listen to every word that comes from my mouth. Stay away from her unless I will do the unbelievable. He says and Hunter doesn't budge.Vixen looks at Hunter and she sees the treachery that is written already in his eyes, it needed no more argument to show that Hunter will not ear the King's tale.She is frustrated at the King at why she needs to fight for her freedom when it is essentially something she should not have to do in the first place but she is too disturbed and yet she needs to find some sort of courage. Vixen isn't afraid of him she thought about how she would have to keep explaining to him.This is something she doesn't need to be fighting for but yet the man will not let her go without a fight but she will not be without choice." I'm not letting you go with him." Hunter says and she closes her eyes as tears fall from my face.You would have to let me go. She says and he puts a hand over her to stop her from going to the king who steps closer and drive takes Vixen along.Hunter knows that this is not a fair fight and will not be engaging in fights. You would be sure to lose. Vixen says and the king grabs on to Vixen and she tries to remove her hand from him."Leave me alone." Vixen says as he pulls her and her voice can be heard by anyone at the near end. She says and he doesn't plead to her command. Her father comes out of the house immediately and steps in front of them after viewing the scene going on inside his home.What is going on here!? Richard's voice is loud as he steps into place.Father in law, I have come to bring vixen into my castle, where she should be placed on house arrest.And why would you do that? Richard says and Vixen looks at her father. She did not think he would take her side. She wonders if he's even taking the side."My daughter will not be going anywhere with you." Richard says and David looks at him in total confusion and stands in place.You are breaking up the alliance that was made between my father and you? David asks." Yes, your father, the queen and I agreed. If there was anyone who had authority to back that down…it would be us. And as a representative who stood in place of the betroth a long time ago."I am enough and allowed to break it. Please, let go of my daughter now. Richard says and the King says cannot believe his ears."Pardon me, but I am afraid I cannot do that." David says
