Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 165
“Are you okay today?” Liam asks Anna there as they are walking in the palace grounds, taking in the fresh air.
After a few days, she can finally get up from bed and walk here and there but still can’t do tough things. Liam still monitors his wife’s condition from time to time and does not allow her to be alone. Either him or Adele, must accompany her always.
Anna, who had never received such attention, felt a little overwhelmed by the man’s excessive attention. She never thought that the man can be someone like this. She either like it or hate it. Just in between.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me and just do your work. You must have a lot of things to get done.” Anna replied with a smile, try not to sound as if she was trying to drive the man away.
But Liam narrowed his eyes right then as if he knew what was playing in his wife’s mind at the time.
“Why I got the feel like you wanted to get rid of me quickly?” He asks there, but no sound of anger making Anna a little relieved there.
Anna stops on her walk and look at Liam directly now. She just decides to be honest, considering the man’s mood seems to be good. She is also lazy to twist her words anyway.
“You can’t blame me for feeling a bit awkward around you. You never really have time for me as long as we’re married. You just come… when you need to. Most of the time we do things on our own.”
“Then try to get used to this. I still have time to accompany you.” He just said that and reached for her hand, pulling her there to keep walking.
Anna pulled her hand back and now she looked at Liam with a disbelieving face there.
“What now? Are you feeling sick? You still look pale.” He shows his concern now.
“Stop it, Liam.” Anna sound firm there. She didn’t know why she felt so hurt even when this man treated her well. She just can’t seem to accept these changes as she knows he just pretends to care.
“Stop what?” Liam actually knows why Anna said this, but he also just like Anna is only able to play with words.
Anna looked the other way and that’s when she saw Freya from afar look at them with a very annoying smirk. She knows very well that the witch is too fond of watching drama between her and Liam.
At the time, she remembered about something.
“The two prisoners who had something to do with Mia’s death. Have you already sentenced them?” Anna suddenly asked there.
Liam raised his eyes there because Anna usually does not interfere with his work unless he is the one who comes to her for advice. But he didn’t feel offended by that, just surprised and that’s all.
“Because too many affairs and things happen in this past lately I postpone the sentence. I actually want to execute it after this. We already interrogate them enough, but after the first interrogation, they just decide to keep silent.”
Anna then approaches Liam there. Facing him.
“What punishment do you want to carry out?”
Liam smiles there.
“Are you curious about it?” Liam gets close to her now and start hugging her waist.
“Do you want to see what I was going to do?” Liam invited her in a whisper to her ears.
“You said to me that you think that Freya has anything to do with them, the Vollmond troupe right? How about I give you an interesting idea.”
“What is it?”
This time, Anna is the one who approaches his ear and whispering there,
“Tell her to come and watch. Let’s see how she is going to react.”
Liam is smiling in satisfied now. His queen suddenly sounds so attractive when she got the evil mind there.
After their discussion,
Liam wears his war clothes there, sharpened his sword at that time and called Freya to come in to face him.
Freya, who doesn’t know the reason why the King suddenly calls for her is now coming there. It’s been a while since the last of their encounter for them to meet in four eyes.
“I’m here, Your Highness.” Freya as usual greeting in her sarcasm manner, but she did look somewhat shocked to see what Liam did at the time. It’s kind of rare to see Liam himself sharpening his own sword as usually he asks someone else to do that for him.
“Why… are you calling me here today?” Freya finally asks that in careful ways.
“I’m giving you a second chance today.” Liam said without looking at the witch at all. He is still busy looking at his sword and imagining his prey a moment later. Freya chuckle there after hearing that.
“What kind of nonsense are you trying to say now? Are you still have doubts to me about what happen to Mia at the Winter Region? You suppose to blame yourself and the princes as you can’t save her even though you’re clearly more numerous.”
Liam stops there after listening to what Freya just said. He actually never tells Freya how many the attacker is, so why she seems to be sure of that? This time Liam is the one smirking in silent.
“Watch what you said Freya. You didn’t know what exactly happened at the time, so don’t say things like that which will obviously anger us.” Anna who had just arrived there reminded.
Freya just looked at the Queen, who was now walking towards the throne and continued to sit there. In the King place. And Liam didn’t say nothing about that whereas before this, he quite obsesses about the place and don’t allow anyone to even touch it. Even Freya quite shocked seeing that.
“To see that if you have nothing to do with the Vollmond troupe, come and see me do the last interrogation in their prison. I want to see if they said something if they see you there.” Liam said and then stood looking at Freya. He already satisfied with his sword.
Freya silenced herself. She looked quite distracted, but she didn’t refuse.
“I already tell you that I got nothing to do with them. But if this act can make you to trust me then I will do that.” Freya said that to prove her innocent but her hand is unconsciously gripped tightly there. As if rejecting what she is saying and Anna notices that very well.
“Very well. Let go. ”
“Nn … now?” Freya didn’t expect that and started stuttering.
King Liam and Queen Anna are just ignoring her and are now walking side by side. Head to the prison that houses the two prisoners. Freya with a heavy step also followed.
Arriving at the prison, Freya was a little shocked to see that the two prisoners were too thin and pale. Not like when she first met them in secret.
Queen Anna and Freya with one prisoner guard waiting outside the iron pillar, while King Liam alone enters there accompanied by his sword.
“Are you both too tormented because there’s no blood you can get? Why don’t you taste each other anyway? Is there some sort of restriction that or what? Are your type only can drink a normal person’s blood?” King Liam starting to mocking them. Both of the prisoner just stares at the King. They didn’t have any energy to talk or fight with him anymore.
“You know what day it is today, right?” Liam puts his sword in front of him now.
“I give you one last chance here. It depends on whether you want to take this opportunity or not.”
“What is it?” One of the prisoner started to talk. Seems to be interesting in the demand. Who wouldn’t? Plus, when their lives are on the line.
“See that witch over there,” King Liam started pointing to Freya with his sword. Both of the prisoners looked towards Freya at that moment while Freya averted her eyes not wanting to be eye to eye with them.
“Do you two know her? Is she a part of your Vollmond troupe?” King Liam asked seriously, there while looking sharply at the two prisoners who were still looking at Freya.
“Think deeply about what you want to say. There’s no second chance.” King Liam warns there. All of them being silent for a while.
“We didn’t know her.” One of the prisoners said that while the others looked at him before also answering.
“We never saw her in our entire life.”
“Really? Are you really sure about that?” King Liam deliberately asked again. Both of the prisoners just nodded now.
“Then, because from your first day here you didn’t give me any information at all, you must know that you only deserve death right? The life of a princess is gone because of you. But what I just said just now really makes me have a new idea. Instead of me, kill you and make you have an easy way to dead, how about both of you just kill each other?! ”
With that, King Liam sliced a bit of both of the prisoner’s skin so that it bled and then he immediately got out of the prison.
“Let see how long you can hold on to your desire.” King Liam said there while standing next to his wife.
In just a few minutes, as the two prisoners had long since not got blood for themselves, they jump to each other and start biting at their wound areas at each other like a tiger devouring food.
King Liam close Queen Anna eyes with his hand at the time, didn’t want her to see that even though he is the one that ask her to come in the first place. He just can’t bring himself to let her to see that horror. With blood dripping here and there.
‘See, that is probably what your son does to Louis. ‘ Liam said in his heart while looking at Freya, who was shocked by what she saw.
Freya in the other hand was too shocked and kept frozen where she stood until the smell of blood there made her feel nauseous. She then ran out of the dungeon and started vomiting in one corner. Her body never trembled like this.
“What…. I just saw?” She can only say that.
