Chapter 269
Amelia contemplated if she truly wanted to deal with Fraser trying to show off that he was king of this castle as if she were not a queen. He could have greeted them and then come back to sit on the throne. She wasn’t jealous or angry, like he wanted her to be. All she thought about was the fact that he was a fool.
"It is good to see that you are back at home, cousin," Fraser said, his eyes fixated on Amelia and the crown she wore. It was smaller compared to the one he wore on his head, and the jewels Amelia had could not compare to his own.
"It is somewhat good to see you, Fraser-"
"It is King Fraser now," Fraser corrected her.
"Then respect is owed to her by addressing her as Queen Amelia. She is still my wife and queen of the north, you fool. Do not anger me already," said Killian. He could pull the small fool off the throne and kill him right now, or better yet, have him watch Amelia take a seat on the throne before killing him. He had many ways in mind for how he could torture Fraser.
Beth gave Fraser a look, warning him not to act a fool before Killian. She gave him a lengthy talk about what not to do, and Fraser had already ignored it. He was to address Amelia as Queen of the North. This wasn’t a simple fight between cousins anymore. They were two rulers, and any conflict could lead to a war they were not ready for.
Killian had once attacked Fraser for disrespecting Amelia, and it had caused the truce not to happen. If Killian were to attack Fraser now, Beth knew she would lose her son. She wasn’t being hard on Fraser for no reason, as he thought. She wished he had listened to her and trained more because he could not defend himself against Killian.
"My mistake. I only wanted to show off the title that I have now. We don’t need to use our titles amongst each other since we are family," Fraser said, trying his best not to look at Killian. He had not forgotten how Killian had embarrassed him, but he had something planned for Killian, who thought he was untouchable. "I hope the trip down the mountain wasn’t too bad. I am surprised you made it here in a day’s time since the mountain is so far away. You must have left early in the morning."
"We left before the sun went up in the sky and didn’t make any stops. We hoped to get here before dinner. Luckily we did," said Amelia.
