Chapter 54: Enemy of the Enemy
Abrielle curiously stared in the direction of the voice and soon saw a young man dressed rather flashy with auburn hair and blue eyes based on his features she quickly recognized him as the son of the king’s second wife.
Former Princess Karissa’s son, Prince Alfonso von Drakkar. One of Cedric’s many siblings he didn’t like. Alfonso’s mother, despite not being the queen, was the one who saw him as the biggest threat.
The truth about the story was that among all Cedric’s brothers, he was one least interested in the throne due to the fierce competition but had no choice but to fight because the chances of being killed were high.
Most royalties after assuming the throne preferred getting rid of every possible trait. Cedric didn’t reply to Alfonso but he had a cheerful personality and could care less.
"I am glad you are here now. I am certain the royal family will be taking the grand price one way or the other." He chimed walking closer to them.
Alfonso was pretty tall with a handsome build but possessed a sunny vibe around him despite being one of the most scheming Characters in the book.
"It’s better you don’t get your hopes too high. The unexpected might happen." Cedric replied, which was surprising. Abrielle was expecting he would be more confident.
The sparkling glow in Alfonso’s eyes dimmed."We hope this hunt is free of such unexpected incidents." His words held a deeper meaning everyone understood.
"I am always ready for the unexpected." Cedric bluntly said. It is not weird to have adversity towards the son of the person who wants your death.
