Chapter 34: The path to turning lovers into enemies.

King Raff slammed his right hand down, his face was consumed by anger, his eyebrows knight together and he stared down at Sigrid with a menacing gaze.

His nostrils flared with each breath that he took, he seemed to be struggling to hold himself back from striking Sigrid down.

"What should we do your grace?" Lord Button asked duke Thorin.

The duke shook his head, "Nothing___" he paused, "yet." he added. "Sigrid never starts a battle she cannot finish." he said with confidence.

In the last two months, they had all witnessed Sigrid’s abilities to foretell the future, every move that she made was calculated carefully to safeguard the future of their Thorin family.

They had agreed on a secret move, if Sigrid put two fingers to her heart, he would interfere. She had not moved yet so it was not his turn to jump in.

"Crown princess, how dare you slander the noble consort in front of me? Are you tired of living?" King Raff growled out.

Sigrid held her head high, showing no fear as she looked back at the king. "Your highness, I tell no lies in my words, I simply cannot repeat what was said in this open court because it will be too demeaning for your royal ears. I would rather be punished than besmirch your good name."

Her response elicited murmurs and drew curiosity from the lords, the more she refused to respond the more they wanted to know.

"I command you to repeat what was said." The king barked.

"Your highness, please don’t make me say it." Sigrid lowered her head, a small smile played on her lips. In the back of her mind, she was thinking, please make me.
