His Witch Queen-Chapter 114: Irresponsible

However, Alice hadn’t raised her voice since everyone’s attention was now diverted to someone else who had made his appearance.

Turning around, they had seen the door of the chamber once again be opened. There stood a man, with the right look of plaster on his face.

While his hair was grown more than his shoulder, the beard on his face seems like it hasn’t been shaved for the past few years.

Immediately, Alice turned around and got alarmed when she noted that a cold layer had spread on Cyrus’s face.

"You are here very late, Dimitri. Where were you?" Cyrus threw a thick question.

In response to him, Dimitri simply tried to roll his eyes without even sparring anyone else a glance. Straightaway, his eyes were stagnant on the lady who lay on the bed.

Not twinning twice, Dimitri walked to the side of the bed to gaze at his mother’s pale figure. "Who had poisoned her, Lady Ashley?"

"We don’t know a child...We have no idea who had taken such a step to actually put his or her hatred with such a kind lady either." Ashley answered with her muffled voice.

It appeared that the lady was heartbroken by her own strong will. She didn’t even move a single inch from the lady Aura.

On the other hand, Dimitri’s lips turned into a line where he couldn’t help but bend down on his knees to have a better look at his mother.

There were no emotions that floated in his eyes, but there was sympathy. An urge..a fear of losing and Alice had easily detected the same.

His actions were noted by all but none even had the courage to command or disturb them. Not even Cyrus had taken the step to question his brother who had ignored him like thin air...

However, Dimitri’s hands were converted to a fist to finally say, "She isn’t as beautiful as you think her to be, Lady Ashley."

"What do you mean to say?" Lady Ashley can’t help but ask Demitri, who appeared with strong and hollowed eyes.

In response to her, Dimitri’s lips curved upwards into a smirk. A narrow glint passed from his eyes as if he was mocking his mother for actually being so weak to be in the bed at this time. "She has got her hands dirty in many things. Maybe she had done it with someone else too..and broken her trust."

"Demitri!" Cyrus had finally raised his voice, where the fury was being in his eyes. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Stepping ahead, he kept his hands on his back, "Is this the way to talk about your mother who is currently in no position to even open her eyes?"

"Truth is sour, Prince Cyrus. You don’t need to get agitated." Dimitri didn’t face Cyrus but only answered while looking at him through his upper shoulders. "Moreover I know her too well. After all, blood is thicker than anything else in the world. You don’t even understand the situation."

All the time, Alice had tried to stay quiet. Her fingers were currently scratching each other, as she suggested that they all weren’t on good terms.

’And is this why lady Aura had resisted talking about her on that day?’

Yet as per what she came across right now, she doesn’t think it is as easy as it appeared to her eyes.

No, it seems that nothing can be so effortless visible either.

’Dimitri hates his mother...’ and the hatred was visible in those eyes too. But that hatred can’t be compared to taking the life of someone either.. It was the betrayal of something.

At last, Cyrus’s brows had deepened with time, "Dimitri, you haven’t even returned to the palace from the last few days and nights. And now you’re saying that your mother isn’t good?"

"Prince Cyrus can actually be grateful that I’m here for now. Otherwise." With this, Dimitri’s eyes once again went to see lady Aura’s face, "...Whatever she’s done, I won’t even show up here."

"Prince Dimitri, I don’t know what you bear for your mother, but lady Aura needs you for now. After all, you’re her son..." For the very first time, Alice had interfered in the conversation when she felt that it was going out of proportion.

Hearing her voice, Dimitri moved this gaze in her direction and Alice could feel her back sinking down.

His gaze was colder than the snow. As if, a bucket of ice had been poured over her.

"Who are you?" was the first thing he asked, to which Cyrus answered before she could, "Queen to be of our kingdom and my wife, Princess Alice of Suzania Kingdom."

"So she is the human you married." was the reply of Dimitri, which made Cyrus slightly annoyed.

But in contrast to him, Alice was absolutely calm. She knew that he was agitated, or probably frustrated to the next core.

At this point, rubbing his nerves was the last thing in her mind to do.

Rather, Alice had passed him a gentle smile to say, "That’s me. The human who married Crowned Prince Cyrus. And according to that, I’m your sister-in-law so you should be respectful rather than trying to act coldly."

’"Because if you don’t, trust me, I have the power to make you vulnerable too." Alice’s threat was way more in a gentle manner.

General Ryan and the rest of the others present there, were hardly able to recognize if the lady was even trying to make Dimitri more furious or..was her trick to make him know that she isn’t any weak to be bullied either.

Whereas, Demitri wasn’t annoyed as per what others thought. He only kept his expressions less face, where it got hard to even recognize what he was thinking.

It almost made others weak in their legs, enabling them to even understand the cold voice war that was going on there at that time.

But to break the silence, it was Ashley who found the urge and the need to do so since it was better to figure out the fight before they are too late to even think.

She had coughed a bit, to look at the other two, as she passed them the straight glare present in her eye. "Demitri, you should stay with your mom. She needs care and.."

"..You are here, and so are the maids. What will they do if I stay here? And Trust me, a lady like her doesn’t require a child like me." was the clear-cut answer he used, which inwardly made lady Ashley sigh too.

Knowing his temperament from the past few years he has been a stubborn creature for sure. "But she’s your mother..she has given birth to you. Can’t you just spend some time with her too?"

"A lady like her only gave birth to me... I think it is advisable to not indulge in these talks with you. So Please." was the straight and clear-cut answer he made to everyone present here.

He was absolutely cold to everyone, as it made their hearts cluster too. But Cyrus knew that getting on his nerves won’t be beneficial to any of them present out there.

"Demitri, why did you even come if you weren’t even interested?"

"I came since that message said that I need to come. Otherwise, do you think I was interested in seeing her face?" Dimitri had turned around to look at his brother with the mockings in his speech.

With this saying, Dimitri had turned around, all ready to walk out of the chamber.

This was enough but since everyone knew that it wouldn’t change his decision, they acted as mute as possible and simply thought of letting his method go away from itself.

However on his way, there was general Ryan who had mumbled under his breath, enough for prince Dimitri to hear things out, "I think Prince should stay with his mother. After all, she is your mother..and.. she needs you."

At this point, Dimitri did stop in his path. With his eyes shifted from his front seal to look and gaze at General Ryan, he can’t help but bring a mocking smirk to his lips as if he can’t help but find the amusement reading.

"General Ryan should rather focus on things he should. A person like you.... shouldn’t tell me what to care about and what not to do..who himself..has been the most irresponsible in his life.."
