The door to the throne room opened and Nika stepped in,her father and mother with Amelia were the only one present in the room.Amelia was standing at a corner, when she noticed that Nika was present,she didn't fail to glare at Nika and this didn't go unnoticed by Nika who ignored her completely."What is the meaning of this insolent behavior displayed by both of you earlier?"The king asked in a deep voice which could make one tremble."I asked a question,"the king said when no one replied to him."Dad,you should be asking Nika that,she is the cause of all this,if she had not tried to seduce my husband to be, this wouldn't have happened,she is also disrespectful,she doesn't know who her elder is,she thinks she can talk to me anyhow"Amelia stated which earned her a glare from Nika."Is that true?"The king asked Nika."It's of no use defending myself since you will side with Amelia at the end"Nika replied."She is so rude,"The queen muttered."I asked you a question Nika, Don't be disres
Nika was silent as she waited for her father to speak.ever since he told about sleeping with the Alpha king of Northcrest Kingdom,she couldn't proudly call him father again."I just want to let you know that we are still your family and we love you no matter what happens, I know you felt betrayed about what happened but I had no other choice,I am a king but I have to listen to my subjects too before anything,I am sorry that Raphael was taken away from you but I know that you will find happiness in another man, just know that I and your mother loves you so much"he said to her.Nika could feel anger rising inside of her,how can he say that they care about her after they made it obvious from their actions that she was never their priority."I don't need your apology,your majes..ty"she said, stressing the majesty."I am not dumb and I know what you are trying to do, maybe your conscience is hurting you,that's why you are apologizing to make yourself look good""Andronika!"came her mother'
"I know that you are not my real parents already,there is no need to hide it from me"she said to him.The queen adjusted in her seat,she was shocked too."What are you talking about?"the king asked her."Don't try to play dumb with me,I know the truth now,this explains the restroom while I felt that I never belonged in this family"she said to him tears rolling down her cheeks."Who told you that?That's ridiculous,"the king said to her."Nobody told me anything,it happened that I overheard the conversation between you and your wife, ever since that day,I felt at peace because all the pieces that I was trying to gather trying to know why I was treated differently, everything made sense to me then,I am not your blood"she said to him.The king sighed,there was no need hiding the truth from her Anymore."There is no need to hide anything from you again, since you have discovered the truth, what do you expect us to do?You should know that you disrespected the king of this kingdom today,do y
"Is this true?"she asked to be sure of what she heard."I won't lie to you Nika"the king said to her."But you lied to me for years about being your daughter, how am I sure everything you told me now is true?"she said to him."You choose what to believe,I won't lie about this, lying to you about being my real daughter has a reason,I didn't want you to feel sad"the king said to her."So if this is true then,how can you allow me to be sent to that evil man for a night,this proves that you don't care about me at all, how can you expect me to sleep with a man that killed my parents,this is wickedness in the highest order"she said to him."I am doing this for you, don't you think this is the opportunity to have your revenge on him,use this opportunity and get close to him then you strike him,he will never see it coming because he didn't expect it"the king said to her.He wished silently that Nika would not be stubborn and agree to his plan.it will help a lot in his plan.at least she is awa
The king was talking with his wife when he heard commotion outside his room."I will be right back"he said to his wife before leaving to check what the cause of the commotion was.He saw the guards struggling with a maid."What's going on here?"he asked.As soon as they heard the king's voice.everywhere became silent."Why are you all disturbing my peace?"He asked and all of them to bow their heads and knelt on their knees."We are sorry for the commotion your majesty,we will take care of things here"the chief guard said, trying to drag the maid away but the maid didn't want to go with him."Your majesty,I have something important to tell you""Shut up,you have no business with his majesty"the chief guard said to her, holding her tightly on her arm trying to take her away but was stopped by the king.Taking a closer look at the maid,he recognized her as Nika's maid.he knew Nika had only two maids so he knew their faces because they were only two."What's this all about?"he asked in a
Back in the room,the queen was curious to know what happened because the king was quiet when he came back into the room."Lawrence, what's the problem?Did anything happen?'' she asked him."Nika is planning to escape"he said to her and her eyes widened in disbelief."Who told you that?"she asked him."One of her servants,"he said to the queen."That girl is good for nothing,you should act now before she succeeds in escaping"she said to the king who nodded."That's what I will do,she must be dreaming if she thinks she can escape this place"the king said to the queen.Nika's maid was walking through the hallway when the chief guard appeared in front of her all of a sudden.her heart skipped for a moment before it calmed down when realizing who it was.she knew the chief guard known as Vlad was very close to the king."I guess you are here to give me the reward,"the maid said to him , smiling."Of course,the king said I should reward you well for betraying your master,"he said to her,his f
Before Nika could ask them further questions,a commotion was heard. "What's that about?"Nika voiced. "I will check it out, my princess,"Mara said to her before leaving. Few minutes later,Mara came back with a sullen face.Taking a look at her,Nika knew that she was not alright. "What happened?"Nika asked her. "My princess,it's ….it's ……. Kelly"Mara stammered.she was still trying to recover from the shock of what she saw. "What about Kelly,besides where is she?I haven't seen her around" "Kelly is dead"she said to Nika who covered her mouth with her palm. "Oh my goodness"she exclaimed. "Who could have killed her? "It has not been found out,you know how it is here,she is just a maid and nothing will be done about it"Mara said to Nika. Nika was speechless,she walked slowly back into her room followed by Mara who locked the door behind.she sat down on the bed with a sullen face.even though Kelly was not close to her like Mara.she was still her servant and she cared about her.
