109 Back To The Estate

~Sylvester~

Some reporters attacked Clay and Alexei with questions, and I became impatient.

They asked how they felt about standing trial in the King’s hall.

The fact that we have yet to make that announcement public bothered me. Joan must have leaked it to the press because the next question gave their intentions away.

They asked Clay and Alexei when the hearing would occur.

We were yet to set a date, and for Yuri to prepare for the event, a date needed to be fixed.

“No date has been set yet, but we are hoping there will be no hearing because we each fought and won our challenges fair and square,’ Alexei said, playing along.

There was a particular reporter I noticed that seemed disappointed about his response.

She did not behave like the others that jumped onto other questions. She withdrew as if that was all she was after.

“Arrest the reporter in the black leather jacket. Have Bryce Golubev question her at the mansion,” I told the kappa driving. He did not even know it was me until I spoke to him.

“Your majesty,” He said, his hands shaking.

“Behave,” I ordered him, and he nodded.

Leo’s kappas that were with us joined one of my Kappa drivers and went to arrest her. The way she willingly followed them meant they had somehow deceived her. I wanted them to lead her to the van transporting the actual Kappas.

“What did you tell her?” I linked my Kappa that was with them. I was too curious to find out.

“We did not want to cause a scene, so we said head council Albert asked to see her privately,” He replied, which made me laugh.

I wondered what the woman thought private meant. She was in for a shock.

We waited until Leo had entered the car that would transport him to the Volkov Estate before we left. Since he was the most important person, Putting him in the car was logical, while the security details used the van. Alexei and Clay had to take an airport taxi that would bring them to the Volkov estate. They had made a show of trying to plead their case before their hearing, so it made sense they would try to see me when they arrived in the north.

The drive to the estate was long, and I could not wait to get out of the uniform and spring into action. There was so much to do. Questioning Larry was high on my list.

I noticed Tamia wasn’t eager, and I touched her hand. I brought it to my lips and kissed it.

“What is the matter, green-eyes?” I asked her, and she turned to look at me with tears. I was surprised that she was hurting. Had all this finally gotten to her? I knew she was tougher than that, so it had to be something else.
