<< WASHINGTON ~ AIRPORT >>
Just as the car got close to Luther, it stop and out of shock, Luther fell on the floor as his guards ran towards him.
“Are you okay, your highness?” They all ask in unison.
Luther couldn’t reply due to shock and worry of where Sierra might be.
They help him stand up and after the driver of the car that almost hit him left, another car pulled up and Sierra got out of it, running towards him.
“What happen?” She ask worriedly.
The joy of seeing Sierra again got him pulling her into his arms to give her a hug and luckily for them there were no reporters.
“Where did you go to? I sent my guards to get you and they couldn’t find you” Luther said.
“But I came here with the guards you sent to the hotel, they told me you sent them and I followed ” Sierra reply just as two guards approach him.
He realise they were Tony’s guard and she must have believed them when they claim to be working for him.
“Master Tony told us to give this to you, your highness” One of them said, holding onto an envelope.
It was Luther guard who took it from him before handing it to Luther.
Luther quickly open the envelope to read it’s content.
★ SCARE YOU DIDN’T I? YOU SHOULDN’T BE SCARED SINCE I BROUGHT HER BACK TO YOU SAFE AND SOUND AND BESIDES, AM JUST HAVING FUN BUT IF YOU INSIST ON BRINGING HER TO DENMARK, THEN DON’T BLAME ME WHEN SOMETHING MORE THAN THIS HAPPEN, YOU’VE BEEN WARNED ★
Sierra who had been reading the letter too stared at him and he could see the fear in her eyes.
“Don’t worry, nothing is going to happen to you” Luther assured, giving her a light kiss on the forehead.

<< DENMARK ~ ROYAL PALACE >>
“I guess he would have read the letter by now” Tony said, sipping his wine.
“What letter?” Charlotte ask.
” A warning letter I wrote to him. Well I kind of told him that if he should bring Sierra here, he should be prepared to suffer the consequence”
“And you think that will get Luther to listen to you?” Charlotte ask.
“Knowing Luther for who he is, am sure he won’t listen to me which is why I prepared a welcoming gift for him and his wife”
“His wife? Don’t tell me you believe they are married?”
“Of course not! I don’t believe it and I will be sure to unmask that when they get to Denmark but before that am going to Instill fear into their heart. Luther might not easily succumb but am sure that Sierra will and she will fall into the trap I have lain down for her” Tony told her.
“What’s this welcoming gift you’ve prepared for them?” Charlotte ask.
“Why not watch it on the news, am sure the reporters will definitely entertain us all with it” Tony said, smiling like the devil.

<< DENMARK AIRPORT >>
“Are you okay?” Luther ask they got out of the plane.
Sierra could only nod to his question since she was stunned by the people waiting for them.
“Who are they?” Sierra whisper to him.
“Just some ministers and guards sent to welcome us. You just have to smile at them, I will do the talking” Luther told her as they walk towards them.
She did as he said, smiling at the ministers who complimented her and watch how Luther charm his way into some of their hearts.
Though it took a while, they left the plane region and were heading out of the airport to their waiting limo when someone amidst the crowd threw an egg at Sierra.
Seeing this, Luther immediately shield her with his body and while some guard shield them, the others did their best to stop the people throwing the egg.
Eventually, they were led past the people and reporters into the waiting limo.
A lady standing amongst the crowd let out a smile as she watch the limo drive off.
“Sierra is back” she said.
On the other hand, in the limo, Luther use his handkerchief to clean Sierra’s face.
“Are you sure you are okay? Do you want us to go to the doctor and….”
“Am fine. I just go hit by an egg, I wonder why they waste food like this or is that your country has too much egg and don’t know what to do with it?” Sierra ask, trying to tease him but he didn’t laugh.
“I promise to protect you and yet…this happen as soon as you get to Denmark” He said in anger.
“It’s not your fault, Luther. Tony already made himself clear so you don’t have to blame yourself” Sierra said, trying to cool down his anger.
“Don’t worry, I will make sure Tony pays for what he’s done today, I promise you that” He said, looking very determined and serious.
They got to the royal place where once again, a lot of people were waiting for them.
But there weren’t ministers like the one at the airport.
This were the maids and the guards who immediately bow at their presence.
“This is butler James. He’s the head of the employee in the palace and a very good friend” Luther said watching his friend as he gave him a bow.
“Isn’t that too formal, a hug will do”Luther said to him.
“Being in close contact with his royal highness has been forbi…”James didn’t get to finish when Luther pulled him into his arms for a hug.
“Miss you buddy” Luther said, slapping him hard on the back.
“Same here” James replied before pulling back to stare at Sierra.
“She’s very beautiful” James said, winking at her.
“Hey! Take your eyes off of her, she’s off limit” Luther warn.
“I wouldn’t dare touch her, I love my life” James said, making them laugh.
“Where’s my father?” Luther ask
“In his chambers”
“And Tony?”
“I believe he’s also in his chamber and madam Charlotte is here” James whispered to him but Sierra heard what he said.
“I’d like you to take my future queen to her chambers and then you let Tony know that father wants to see him,make sure he comes to my father’s chamber. I have a gift for him” Luther said before turning to Sierra.
“Go with him, I will be with you soon, I promise” Luther said as they both part ways.

<< KING’S CHAMBER >>
Lewis Maxwell, Luther and Tony’s father was seated on his favourite sofa waiting along side Luther for Tony to show up.
The door open and a smiling Tony showed up, smiling at the both of them.
“Hello everyone. I heard I had a present waiting for me” Tony said, taking a seat beside Luther.
“Where’s this present?” Tony ask.
“It’s a present from me,big bro. Do you want me to tell him what it is, father?” Luther ask and his father shrug,giving him authority.
“As we all know here that in a few days, I will be the soon to be king. Before that happens, I will like to give out my first royal order which is also my gift to you, Tony” Luther said, watching Tony smiling face.
“For my first royal order as the king to be, I want you banish from Denmark” Luther said and immediately, the smile on Tony’s face vanish…..
