• Julius & Juliana   CHAPTER 14

  That night, the king secretly called James while he was about to have his evening bath in the bathroom. He informed him that his daughter was going to meet her lover tomorrow but she didn't mention the time she would leave the palace to meet him. Duncan however told him to come with his guards that are to be the abductors of the man early the next morning. He also said that he would instruct his monitoring guards to wait for them at the entrance gate of the palace, early the next morning so that they can wait together and secretly follow his daughter to where Julius would be waiting for her when she is ready to leave. James concurred with the idea and also informed his guards about what he had been told by the king, promising them great rewards for a neat job. They are to capture him, cover his eyes with a black piece of cloth and take him to the unknown area where they will be feeding him so that he could stay alive until Juliana complied w

  James Smith called king Duncan to report Juliana's recent behavior to him. He told the King that Juliana has refused to go out with him once more ever since their first date and has also refused to pay him a visit to see his family, which lucidly illustrates her refusal to have a relationship with him. He told the king that despite this, he wasn't ready to give up on her at all because he doesn't give up easily but added that if the situation becomes severe to the point that after killing the peasant secretly, or getting rid of him in one way or the other and she still refuse him, then he would finally give up on her. The king replied that it won't be wise to kill him because Juliana will only get worse and due to her strong love for him, she could even decide to kill herself or swear never to marry anyone else because she will definitely suspect James of having a hand in his death. So they both thought abou

  Julius became restless in his father's palace. He started thinking about what her father had said about her being bethroted to someone. "Could this be true? Was her father telling the truth about her being bethroted to someone? Has she been lying to me and cheating on me all these while? How come she didn't inform me that she was going on a date with someone? How stupid I am to have fallen in love with her just because she is the prettiest girl I've ever seen in my life. I thought she was a nice girl with a good heart but I shouldn't have judged a book by its cover. I can't withstand heartbreak, now she has my heart in her hands. What a fool I am to have given her all my love and trust. Pretty girls can be very dangerous when it comes to matters of the heart, this is a lesson I've learnt over time. Never again will I be fooled by beauty and appearance" he finally concluded his thoughts. His parents took

  When Juliana learnt that a suitor had brought her a gift, at first she refused the gift and made it clear to her parents that she doesn't want a rich and proud man to become her husband and moreover, she's already in love with someone. But when her mother talked to her about meeting the suitor first before deciding, she reluctantly accepted it. James smith had called for a date with the princess so that they can get to know each other better and the king concurred with the idea. Her mother however encouraged her to go to the date with the suitor but she was very hesitant to agree. She explained that she was in love with someone else and shouldn't be having a date with another man. Her mother elucidated her point that she should have the date to enable her know which of the men is more suitable for her. On the said day, James arrived king Duncan's palace with a luxurious car

  When Juliana got home by evening, her father sent for her. The guards he had instructed to monitor her movements have reported her to him, having caught her with Julius together. She met her father and saw that he wasn't happy to see her. "How dare you go against my warning? How dare you! I warned you never to go near that boy but you have refused to abide to my word." "But father, he saved my......" "Spare me all that!" King Duncan retorted. "I warn you for the last time, stop seeing that boy. He's a church rat and has nothing to offer you". "Yes he might be poor, but I love him just the way he is. Can't you see father? Love is all that matters. He is poor and so what? He saved my life and...." "Will you shut your gob?" Duncan retorted. "What is love without money? If he can't spend money on you to prove his love then how else can you be convinced that he's not just going to use and dump you?" He frowned at her. Juliana was so angry at her father's

  When she saw the message, she was heartbroken and felt disappointed but she didn't yet believe what Paul had said. She decided to confront Julius before the day of her next performance so that they could settle the matter before she could proceed to her show so as to avoid disappointing everyone on that day owing to the issue bothering her. She phoned him to let him know that there was something she really wanted to discuss with him and that it was very important they meet before the day of her next performance. On the day of their meeting, Julius rode his horse to the place as usual, smiling and feeling excited at the thought of seeing the love of his life once again although he was still yet to admit his love for her even though she was showing him so much of her love for him. He was getting ready to officially reveal his true identity to her now that he has seen she was in love with him despite his poor s
