Chapter 651 - Six Hundred And Fifty-one: Destroy The Royal Family
The third point of view:
Anika returned home, whistling. She was excited and in anticipation, hence the happiness on her face couldn't be hidden. She met the prince and was happy for all the wrong reasons; it was time for their revenge to commence.
"You're back, Anika," Said her mother or, rather, her mother in acting.
"Yes, ma'am, I'm back," She answered, the smile never leaving her lips.
On other days, she would have shown more filial piety to this woman but they weren't in public view and she had to meet mother - her chosen mother.
Anika turned to?her, "Is she here?"
"Yes, she's waiting for you in the living room," Her mother in acting replied and she at once hurried into the living room to see her.
The silhouette of the strawberry blonde woman in the living room made her heart skip in excitement. Anika suddenly became nervous and had to make sure her appearance was okay before she made her presence known.
"Mother," She called her.
Fiona at once turned around with a smile, "Anika, my dear," She then outstretched her hand, saying, "Come give your mother a hug,"
At once, Anika's expression broadened and she went into the woman's arms, savoring the moment as she knew it might take her a while before she saw her again. Fiona wouldn't be here all the time to avoid suspicion or being captured by their useless king.
Truthfully, not even Fiona nor her other woman was her real mother. Her real mother had died after her father was executed for committing treason against the crown. Her real mother, unable to take the shame and loss, committed suicide, leaving behind an eight-year-old kid who had no clue how to survive in this cruel world.
However, Fate was kind to her and Fiona found her and chose her to be her daughter. But then fate was not kind to her Mom, Fiona, because the woman found out that she was born with ovaries that can not produce eggs. Hence, she was unable to give birth even after trying diverse treatment patterns. So she settled for adoption and that was her.
Anika knew she was very lucky to have been adopted by Fiona, their leader. There were so many orphaned kids fighting for their cause that wished to be in her shoes, after all, she - Anika - was chosen to bring down the royal family.
The royal family was a bunch of hypocrites, good pretenders who did nothing but ruin the lives of citizens they swore to protect and they would be judged and persecuted for their sins by karma brought upon them by the?Revolution.
Yes, The Revolution was the name of their movement, a group of people opting for a change in leadership. Their leader Fiona had opened their eyes to the cruelty of the royal family and they would surely bring them down.
The Revolution was made up of brothers and sisters who had lost their parents to the execution; wives and mothers who lost their husbands to the rebellion; relatives who lost their family members to the execution ordered by the royal family. And now, all have come together for a common goal, to destroy the royal family.
"How have you been?" Anika asked, staring into the woman's warm green eyes. Fiona was beautiful and so full of compassion, she was kind to everyone. No wonder they had many followers.
Although Fiona was the real woman who adopted her, she was handed over to this family to be taken care of since she had an organization to run. Moreover, the king placed a bounty on Fiona's head, hence she - Anika - would only be a burden to her and slow down her progress. Anika was better off with this family and never lacked anything anyway - Fiona made sure to provide it.
"Well, tired for a start," Fiona smiled down at her, "But otherwise, I'm good," She said.
Anika sighed, then gently took her hand, "Then have a seat first," She pulled her to the sofa where she made her sit down, "You should learn how to take a rest knowing you're very important to us. What if you break down or something, it would be a huge setback to our plan," Anika told her, concerned.
However, there was a sharp glint in Fiona's eyes and she was reminded of the reason she was here in the first place.
"You said you saw the prince, Akim?"
"Yes, I did," Anika answered confidently, knowing nothing excited her mother more than the talks of the royal family.
"He was with his sister," She further revealed.
But Fiona still had a trace of doubt, "How sure are you that it was him that you saw?" she asked, rubbing her jaw thoughtfully.
Anika rolled her eyes, even up to now her mother doesn't think she was capable enough to deliver the royal family into her hands. So she brought out her phone and showed Fiona a picture of them.
While his royal highness Akim and his sister were busy testing the termites, Anika had secretly signaled one of their followers who were at the festival as well, to take pictures because she knew her mother would never believe her until she had evidence.
Fiona's eyes shone as she stared at the picture, this was a sign from heaven. She could feel it, her plans would soon come to fulfillment. She could already feel the taste of victory on her tongue.
Akim was the future of Lincolnshire and as well, the most beloved to yours truly, prince, no, his majesty, King Kai, and she has tried all means to get her hands on him all to no avail. Kai as well knew her intentions and has kept Akim safe, by all means, possible, thus, all of their plans failing. But not anymore.
"It seems strange, the prince has been kept away and protected strictly from the public eyes. However, he came to the Townsquare without any security - I was almost tempted to kill him, after all, we don't get that opportunity often,"
