Chapter 11
Helena's Point of View
"Mum?" Eleanor whispered as she came to my side.
Lucius had fallen over either dead or unconscious I didn't care. Once I saw him fall I lowered the gun and wrapped my arms around Eleanor. She clung to me like I was going to disappear. All I could do was hold her tight. Liam made his way towards us just as the panic room doors flung open.
However it was a less than friendly face that greeted us.
"Cyrus?" I hissed.
He walked in with a cocky smirk but stopped dead when he saw Lucius. Surveying the people remaining in the room he was less than impressed to see us all alive and well.
"Well this is unexpected, how the hell did you two survive?" Cyrus questioned as he looked between Liam and Eleanor.
"And why are you here?" He added, glaring at me as he did.
Eleanor removed herself from my grip, walked straight up to Cyrus and punched him right in the face with all her strength. He stumbled backwards clutching his bleeding nose as her fist made contact.
"You little bitch how dare you attack your king." Cyrus spat in response.
Eleanor spun around and began to make her way back towards him. However this time I beat her to the punch. I reached over and pulled him towards me by his ridiculously big collar. I made sure to pull him so close I could see the fear in his eyes. His pretend bravery faded fast as I glared at him.
"You do not speak to her like that. I know you did not get the blood tested and I can assure you now the tests will be redone. I should never have agreed to help you in anyway. I will have you arrested for attacking my daughter, Jasper and for killing your own brother. You will never sit in the throne and neither will your dim witted daughters." I threatened.
Cyrus thought carefully about his next words before a smug look crossed his bloodied face.
"And who will believe you?" He smirked.
"I'm the King of England!" He chuckled.
I released him roughly and hired the gun that was still in my hand. I aimed it at him and watched as he began to squirm. A tense silence fell as we all stared at Cyrus. It wasn't until someone spoke that the silence broke.
"She doesn't need anyone to believe her, I can prove it." A voice came from behind.
As Cyrus turned to see who it was I caught sight of Ted and Marcus blocking his exit. The look of fear returned to his face and he realised he was outnumbered and outsmarted. He through his hands up in defeat and I swear I saw tears in his eyes as Marcus took him by the arm and pulled his outside.
"Police are already waiting to deal with him." Ted assured me.
"But I can see you took care of Lucius yourself." Ted stated, with a hint of a smile.
"Thank you Ted and yes Lucius is taken care off." I smiled.
"Good I will have the paramedics get rid off him, is he dead?" Ted asked.
Liam walked over and hesitantly took Lucius's wrist in his hand. Waited and few moments, before announcing he couldn't find a pulse.
"Body bag then." I sighed in relief.
Ted nodded in response.
"You two ok?" He asked Eleanor and Liam who had re-joined his sister.
"Fine yeah." They both replied.
"Good well in that case Liam I was told to tell you Ophelia is waiting for you and Eleanor Jasper is hovering outside the door." Ted smiled.
Liam rushed over gave me a quick hug and practically sprinted for the door. Eleanor on the other hand didn't even bother to acknowledge me as she chased after Liam and to get to Jasper.
I was just about to say something to Ted when Eleanor returned, Jasper dragged behind her. She came over and through her arms around me, catching me off guard as she did.
"Thanks for saving us. Do you mind if I spend some time with Jasper?" She whispered as I let her go.
Reluctantly I nodded and watched as a huge grin crossed her face.
"Thanks mum." Was all I got as she once again left the room.
A few hours later I was getting ready for bed when I heard a small knock on my door. As I went to open it I expected to see Eleanor but was surprised to see Jasper nervously waiting on the other side.
"You lost?" I asked, thinking he had miscued Eleanor's room.
He shook his head.
"Um no…..I-I-I-I was just wondering if…." He trailed off.
"If?" I pressed.
"If you mind me dating your daughter." He blurted out.
I looked at him, open mouthed and shocked. I didn't even think their relationship was real. I thought it was just sex and meaningless sex at that!
"Excuse me?" I replied.
"Can I date your daughter?" He clarified.
"You actually care about her? For real, like a real boyfriend?" I questioned.
He nodded.
"To be honest your Majesty I think I love her." He admitted.
"Love?" I gasped.
He nodded again, blushing slightly as he did.
"Jasper I don't know what to say….." I whispered.
"Say you will give me a chance to prove to you how much I care about her. After all Eleanor has been through I know you don't want her hurt so I swear I will never hurt her. Please just let me have a shot, she will be my princess even if she isn't technically one by birth." He begged.
I could see the desperation in his eyes as he waited for my answer. I had to say yes. So I nodded, a huge grin spread across Jasper's face the minute I did.
"Thank-you, thank-you." He cried as he raced off towards Eleanor's room.
"Do not let me down!" I called after him as he rounded the corner…..
Hope you enjoyed :-) Until next time ;-)
