The Commoner Consort: The Country’s Respected Empress - Chapter 133
Kalki’s chamber.
“You are not listening, Xav”.
Kalki’s sudden statement got Xavier out of his daze.
Ever since Xavier entered Kalki’s chamber, he didn’t pay his complete mind to Kalki’s words.
He kept on frowning and thinking about something while Kalki was talking about the country’s situations. Xavier’s worried face didn’t go unnoticed by Kalki.
Kalki ‘asks’ calmly “Something is really bothering you recently”.
As an understanding brother, Xavier knows that was a question!
Xavier asks confused and worried “Don’t you feel that… our lives are changing?”.
Kalki looks at him with a raised eyebrow “What change did you see?”.
Xavier speaks reluctantly “For instance, this marriage. Now I have to seek your permission to enter your chamber. I-I am not complaining but… I feel distant but I understand-“.
Even though he knew everything happening around him is normal, he couldn’t be at ease while watching everything happening.
Kalki’s eyebrows relaxed at his sentence and asks mockingly “Is that it?!”.
CLAP!
CLANK! THE DOOR OPENS!
Xavier knows what Kalki is about to do and states “That won’t change anything, Xander”.
“Yes, Your Highness!”.
With Kalki’s single clap, a servant came running into the chamber and kneels respectfully in front of his Country’s Majestic Princes.
The sight of both Brothers standing together is a rare sight to be cherished! One must be grateful for this serious situations in the country which brought them together. Because Kalki always likes to travel around a lot. As if he is in search of something and he is still unaware if what it is and where it exists.
Kalki states sternly “I will not hear any announcement of Xavier’s presence in future. And for today’s mistake …I expect that doesn’t repeat if every servant around here wants to live”.
The man bows anxiously “Y-Yes,Your Highness! This servant understands!”.
Kalki orders “Nothing changes in this Realm until My order does!”.
The soldier gulps in fear and didn’t dare to look at Kalki’s face. He simply nods “Yes, Your Highness!”.
Kalki waves his hand carelessly “Leave!”.
With that Kalki’s command the servant leaves the chamber at once.
SLAM!
THE DOOR IS CLOSED!
Kalki turns to look at Xavier and smirks “That won’t happen ever again”.
Xavier sighs boringly “You can’t control everything like your servants, Xander”.
Kalki smirks broadly “Well, I will try hard to keep everything in my control”.
Xavier shakes his head defeated “You won’t understand. Forget it”.
Kalki states while grabbing a miniature of a soldier from the table “You are just searching excuses for changing, Xavier. Nothing will change unless you allow the circ.u.mstances to change you”.
Xavier asks “What will happen in future? What if you fall for a woman and love her-“.
Kalki chuckles mockingly “You are losing your mind, Xavier”.
Xavier protests “Everyone falls in love, Xander”.
Kalki snaps with a devilish smirk “I am not everyone”.
Xavier shakes his head in disbelief “How can you be so sure?! You might see a breath taking Beauty tomorrow and even might fall for her!”.
Kalki declares dryly “No one in this world is Breath taking-ly beautiful, Xav. Stop living in day dreams”.
Xander whines “Do you have any idea of loving a woman? Don’t you have any woman whom you love?!”.
Kalki’s eyes turn soft at this question and a genuine smile creeps on his face “I have a woman whom I love utmost”.
Xavier stops speaking at Kalki’s true emotion oozing from his face which has become a rare occasion ever since, Empress Claudia died.
He always wondered ‘How much Xander has changed since Mother left this world!’.
Xavier lets out a deep breath “I know. But I am asking about that future woman with whom you would be spending the rest of your life”.
Kalki states absent minded as if he is still engrossed in his past memories with his Mother “I don’t need any woman to spend my life with”.
Xavier rubs is neck awkwardly and speaks looking at Kalki reluctantly “Now you do have a woman, don’t you? Even though it is a lie-“.
Kalki frowns “She would be exiled from this Realm very soon”.
Xavier gets shocked and gasps “Exiled?!”.
Kalki smirks “Do you doubt my decision?”.
Xavier states worriedly “But you can’t conspire against her only because you don’t want her to be here!”.
Kalki chuckles “She isn’t worth of it. I don’t have time to conspire against this stupid woman”.
Xavier gets displeased and asks “The reason for her exile might be?”.
He starts thinking about the every single possibility of a Royal getting the penalty of being Exiled. He notices Kalki’s robe got torn near his stomach and wonders doubtfully ‘Could it be.. Attacking A Crown Prince..’
He already gasped at the very thought ‘That’s impossible!!’
Kalki who sensed Xavier’s eyes on his torn robe and scoffs “I don’t want her to die, Xav. She might be hanged to death several times for this crime”.
Xavier couldn’t help but gulp at that thought and he blurts his mind out “Did she really stab you?!”.
‘Is she really capable enough to stab, Xander?! I want to get mad at her for her audacity but how did she really…No! I can’t admire a woman who tried to kill My Brother!!’.
Kalki mumbles “That thing’s brain worked surprisingly..”.
Xavier asks seriously “Will you exile her as a punishment?”.
‘If that’s the case, she might be sent back to her country or to some other country… Then..’.
So fear itches Xavier’s mind and heart at this thought. He couldn’t go further in his flow of thoughts as his mind goes blank at the thought of her absence in his life.
Kalki walks around the table and declares grabbing the sack which had Maya’s Bow and arrows “These evidences might make her to leave or help her to stay here”.
Xavier frowns eyeing every content and asks suspiciously “You are turning this against her?”.
Kalki smirks tilting his head “I am not. At least for time being “.
