The Prince went out of the carriage as soon as it stopped at the footstep of the Mansion of Devon. His footsteps echoed all over the hall. His strides were long and as he arrived at the dining hall, where his cousins were having their delightful breakfast.
“Sebastian?” Edward stared blankly at him.
“Is that you?” He again asked and ambled towards him to shake with his hands.
“Yes, this is me, Edward.” Edward grinned at his remark and motioned him to the seat next to Stephen.
“Sit next to Stephen, and have a delightful breakfast.” Before sitting, the Prince greeted the Duke and Duchess of Devon. They greeted him as well and asked him to take a seat. The Prince gladly accepted the offer and sat down.
His gaze fell on the woman sitting next to Edward.
Marie.
Marie turned away when Sebastian was looking at her. She is disappointed because he has followed her, all the way to Devon. She needed a space and she wanted to move on, but if she kept seeing Sebastian’s alluring face, she cannot help herself but fall again to his charms. She has no time for it now, she no time for it forever. Marie focused on her food and ate silently with Stephen’s family.
The conversation of the family was concentrated on Sebastian’s life in Wales. Random topics were asked by the Duke and the Duchess and they were entertained by the smart answers of the Prince. Marie caught the Prince grin a couple of times, and she felt her heart tightened as she watched a glorious creature, like the Prince, to grin charmingly. She cannot deny the fact that she still is enamored with the Prince.
“Edward, any plans of marriage?” Sebastian asked curiously to Edward. Marie was startled by his inquiry.
Edward gave him a smile. “Not yet.” He replied and continued to eat.
But, before taking the food to his mouth, he bantered, “Unless, Marie will accept my engagement.”
Marie choked when Edward said it.
Edward laughed at her response and patted her back.
“I was just bantering.” He said and gave a gleeful glance to Sebastian.
Sebastian’s stare was cold and full of anger. Edward continued eating after Marie recovered from her choking.
Edward sensed there was something strange about Sebastian’s look at him after his jest. He had never seen his cousin stare like that before. It was cold and if you weren’t brave enough, you would run away after seeing it. It was full of fury and hatred.
He surmised Sebastian is enamored with Marie.

Sebastian arrived at the table to see the Duke eating quietly his supper. “Your Highness, please take a seat.” Sebastian glared at the Duke and he didn’t look very disturbed without the others sitting next to him. Sebastian seated with a mixture of shock and anger.
“Where is everybody, your grace?” Sebastian asked.
“Didn’t they tell you?” The Duke asked. And added, “They went to Devon.”
“They? You mean, Stephen, Marie, and Mary?”
“Yes, them. Oh, they didn’t tell you.”
“No, sir.” Sebastian replied curtly.
“Is that so?” the Duke asked curiously, not expecting an answer.
Sebastian was raging mad. He can no longer control his anger and he is furious of the happenings. His plots were gradually studied, and he concluded that he will be successful, yet, his cousin hindered his plans. His fury can no longer be kept and without permission, he left the dining table by the Duke, and went to his bedchamber.
He paced around his chamber to release all the anger out of him. His ire was reaching to the points, no one have never tried to reach it yet, and what is infuriating him so, is that his cousin is the reason for all this. He stopped pacing. Instead, he took all his belongings and packed. He needed to leave. He ought to be in Devon by now.
After packing up all his things, he talked to the Duke and informed him that he will leave to Devon.
Immediately.
The Prince took off immediately as soon as the carriage arrived at the footstep of the Mansion. He ordered to hasten their trip to Devon, and do not stop unless one of the horses died.
The servers followed the Prince’s instruction and they rode fast to Devon.
The trip made the Prince weary, that he fell asleep on the trip. His sleep is still disturbed by the thought of his cousin’s betrayal on him. His outrage today made the Prince distressed so much. He wanted to attack his cousin, and ran away with Marie.
