The Throne Is Mine N Chapter 112

Chapter 112: Chapter 112

"Wow. A lot of them have gathered at the gates. Really puts into perspective how many people owned soone else and this is not even all of them. The more corrupt people in the slave trade are sowhere trying to hide the people," Alia said as she and Killian walked down the steps where a horse was waiting for them.

"I’ve pulled a lot of the corrupt ones out of their holes and sent them for your guards to inspect them. I’m sure many of them have connections in the castle to help them get out. If it is fine with you, they will die for so reason."

Alia caught on to what Killian was trying to say. If they allowed these people to get away there was a strong possibility of them going back to be involved in the slave trade she was trying so hard to make disappear. "Do whatever you want as long as innocent people who had no part in it are not hurt. You will have a lot of n from court trying to bribe you to not hurt their friends," she said.

"I am going to be leaving this castle with many riches then," Killian replied.

Alia had a better idea for his money and said, "Or you can do sothing that will move my heart and quite possibly have feelings for you."

Killian took the reins of the horse from one of his n who had brought out the horse for him. "Thank you," he thanked the man who bowed and went off to do sothing productive.

’A demon with manners. Who could have imagined this,’ Alia thought.

"You an to tell

you don’t already have feelings for , princess? After everything that I have done for you?"

Alia thought she must have mory loss because she could not recall the things Killian did for her. He suggested a truce because he was interested in her and wanted to marry her. She didn’t need him to take the bla for her father’s death considering no one would be able to link it back to her. "What exactly have you done for

besides making

almost be taken advantage of?" She had to ask.

"I am deeply offended. Have I not been offering you advice, protection, a throne you desire, and cleansing your kingdom of its slave trade? I have done enough to warrant you feeling sothing for

unless you are simply in denial. That is the only conclusion," said Killian.

He was aware Alia felt sothing for him. Sothing small and nowhere near love but she would rather hide it so others wouldn’t judge her for opening her heart to the man everyone thinks killed the king. It would be better if she did not care about the opinions of other people. Killian did things on his own terms not to please others. Life would be boring if you had to continuously think about other people.

"I am not in denial. I don’t do anything for you-Ah!" Alia scread when Killian suddenly pulled her up onto the horse. She had not even seen what he had gotten on. "A warning would have been nice you brute," she elbowed him. How could he ntion her possibly having feelings for him but then did things like this?

"What a lovely scream you have. Do it again," Killian whispered behind her ear.

Alia was tempted to head-butt him for being so close to her. "Take

in town or I shall return to my room," she said as she straightened out her dress so her legs would not be seen. She regretted not changing into sothing more comfortable for riding a horse.

The horse began to move after Killian commanded it to.

Alia’s heart sank as they rode to the gates where angry people were waiting to have a word with her. She saw their angry expressions as she got near. Their once loud protest quieted down once they saw her and Killian together. They had the courage to yell at her but not at Killian. She ignored those that muttered under their breaths and focused on the road ahead of her.

One day this would all change. People will view her as an excellent ruler and respect her enough not to co to the castle gates disobeying an order she placed. Alia did not take anything that was said to heart. The future of her being a queen was near and she would soon show everyone her growth and talent of being a good queen.

"If not for you stopping

from going out there I would have gone and been like a little sad puppy listening to their words while they refuse to hear

out. Thank you. Don’t think this will make

have feelings for you," she added and felt his chest vibrate from his laughter.

"Alright. What is it you wanted

to do with the money?"

"My mother has many orphanages and shelters to take care of those in need. I have taken on responsibility for caring and providing for both. When my father was alive, he tried to take the money my mother left and use it for war. If you have no use for the money you are being bribed with, please consider donating it to the orphanages to use. There is only so much I can do on my own," said Alia.

"Do you wish to pay them a visit before we depart to the north? You can personally deliver the money so that it does not remain in the north to be stolen. I will ride along with you to see what these places are like. I want to know everything about you," Killian snaked a hand around her waist.

"And I want to do the sa with you. Once everything has settled down we should have a lengthy conversation about ourselves. What we like and dislike. I will try my best to open up my heart to you, Killian. I do not want our marriage to be like my parents’ one. I do not want to force a smile and pretend everything is alright before our child," Alia stated as she hated the position her mother was in.

"I am nothing like your father. As a king, a husband, and as a person. I intend on treating you well. I thought my actions by now would have shown that but it seems you have another opinion of . Whatever is on your mind, never hide it from

because I am always willing to listen. I did not have any parents to follow what a good marriage is like-"

"Really? Sorry," Alia apologized for cutting him off. "I am just surprised because our reports say that you killed your father to beco king."

"He was not my father. Just another demon with a seat I wanted. I am a demon created from a God, not one born from two demons. I have no family as you do. Those that refer to themselves as my family are demons who were created by a God. They claim we are one and the sa therefore we should stick together," Killian explained.

At the end of the day, he did not have any relatives though other people kept calling themselves that.

"So the only family you will have is with

and our children. Have you ever been lonely without having a family? From my experience, I can tell you it’s not all that but there are so monts when it is lovely."

"I was never jealous of anyone having a family nor did I seek after one. I enjoyed being alone with no one to be my weakness. As a demon created by a God, I should have children so that my lineage will spread around the world and not end at . When you co across demon children, you will realize why I was not in a rush to have any. They are terrifying little things," Killian shook his head to get rid of the image of them in his mind.

Alia felt scared for her life if Killian himself was scared of demon children. How bad could they possibly be? On the other hand, she saw why he picked her as his wife. His lineage would sit on two thrones in the future and perhaps many more.

Being two people who were unfamiliar with a happy family, she hoped they would make excellent parents so their children would not try killing them in the future.

"Have you heard anything about my father’s death? Have they given up after you have taken the bla for his death?" Alia asked.

"They are still suspicious because there are no wounds on his body to be killed by . You have sliced his neck to make it look like soone had killed him. Then it would have looked as if one of my n snuck into the castle and killed him. Unless you were going for the whole dying in his sleep look. As we will share a bed, I must warn you not to try that with ."
