The Alien King's Alluring Obsession
Chapter 50

Killian

"Your majesty, the drought at Reddington area is getting more serious. All the people living in that area and its surroundings have sent several petitions to your Highness for help." A middle-aged official with silver hair said powerfully. I sighed.

If there was a choice, I didn't want to attend this court meeting at all. Alas, even with my wedding, matters of the courtsm and kingdom have to be attended to.

I took an empty sheet of paper from my desk. I wrote an edict that would give anyone holding it, the power to take something from the Royal treasury.

The people in Reddington area can not be ignored.

I pressed the golden and circular stamp on the edict I have written.

"Igor, take this edict and get the exact amount written on it from the Royal treasury. Use the money to buy grains and other reliefs for the civilians. Transport it to Reddington area as soon as possible. They can't wait for too long." I ordered. "My King." Another official started to say.

I raised my hand up and stopped him.

I have already done enough. I can't focus on whatever they were saying to me.

The only thing in my mind was the love of my life. My soulmate, Edna.

Today was our wedding ceremony. Since the day I felt her presence, I had been looking forward to this day for a very, very long time.

I thought the court meeting was going to be brief. I wanted to address some of the prevalent issues after supervising the way the wedding ceremony would be organized.

I didn't know the court meeting would take this long.

The hour I would wed Edna was drifting closer.

I don't know if Edna started the fine-tuning of her wedding dress yet. She would look absolutely beautiful. I didn't even need to see her to know that.

"Court meeting dismissed." I said.

I rested my elbow on my throne before holding my jaw with the my hand.

This officials were annoying me. The more time I spend here, the more time they are taking away from me and Edna.

"But my King, we still have plenty issues to address." Igor said.

"Well, I think you guys had forgotten that today is my wedding. I can't hold this court meeting forever." I narrowed my eyes.

All the officials in the hall bowed towards me collectively.

"We are sorry for our blunder, Your Highness." They all apologized in unison.

I waved the apology away with my hand gesture, "Everyone should make sure they appear when it is time. Tardiness won't be tolerated."

The words about my wedding had spread far and wide. I was the mastermind behind it.

I know some of these people might not want to accept Edna because she was human.

The thing is, they don't forgot one important thing. The people under me were supposed to choose and serve whoever I picked. There is no way they can influence my decision.

I thought the time I got the throne made that fact very clear. Alas, my officials had forgotten the horror of going against me and my decisions.

I would have opted for a small wedding ceremony but, a big wedding served a very important purpose.

A big wedding would show everyone on Blue Star planet that Edna was very, very important to me.

They would replace it easier to accept her as their Queen with this minor push.

I don't really care much about their opinions but as a king, there are many things to consider. I don't want my soulmate to be wronged because of something I could have avoided.

Edna deserved all the best things in the world. I don't want her to suffer at all. I should carry the cross for everything. She didn't need to stress herself.

The love bubbling in my heart was too much to bear. I didn't know I was this impatient before Edna came into the picture.

Before I got the throne, being patient was a valuable asset. It helped me realize some of my goals.

Scheming to get the throne wouldn't favor an impatient person.

The moment Edna appeared, all my willpower and all my patience disappeared into thin air. I wasn't annoyed by the change. It was a good change.

I was just reminiscing.

The difference between the Killian that took the throne and my current self was stark.

The officials started to disperse from the Court Hall.

Then, something I forgot flashed through my mind.

"Vladan, please wait. I have something to talk to you about." I said.

I sent a message to one of my guards.

He was instructed to call Jelena here.

I have something to say to this father and daughter duo.

Some of the officials that were leaving the court Hall slowed their pace.

I knew they wanted to listen to gossip.

I rubbed my brows.

If anyone told an outsider that these are officials with great power in their hands, the outsider might not believe it.

Jelena arrived promptly.

She and her father came nearer to my throne.

"I see you guys have gotten too comfortable." I started as I glanced between two of them.

"Your majesty, what do you mean? Your majesty, if I have offended you in any way, please forgive me." Vladan said immediately.

HIs cunning eyes rolled around in his eye socket.

He was quick to admit his unknown fault. I sneered. How convenient.

I haven't really gone into a violent rage for months now.

It seemed my choice to watch everyone behave like a clown was giving some of these officials the chance to misbehave.

Maybe, they thought I had become weaker or something. Their audacity was too much.

"I apologize for any blunder I made, your majesty." Jelena bowed her head a little and followed in her father's apologizing footsteps.

"Jelena, why did you threaten Edna to leave me? Are you the monarch? If you want to answer yes to that question, all I have to say is simple. I didn't know. If I knew, I would have visited you to pay my respects." I spat. Tears welled up in Jelena's eyes.

It was a rare occurrence. I didn't give Jelena the position of the head guard because of her father or his power.

She got her position with her merits and work.

Now, I am really rethinking my decision. I can't make Edna uncomfortable seeing the person who had threatened her under my nose.

It might sour her mood.

It would be better to move Jelena to somewhere else.

Jelena's face drained of color, "My King, you know I have been in love with you for years. When I saw the future Queen, I was resentful and I said some things in my anger. I didn't mean anything by those words."
