CARLISLE

“So if you know that's going to bring issues, why do you want me to do it? Are you trying to cause a coup or something?”

I'm trying to distract you. I thought deeply about what I wanted to say before I did because I knew that it was going to cause a whole lot of issues when I recovered from my imaginary illness.

Also, it was going to change a lot of things that had never happened before.

“Not at all. I want you to tell them that you now have your own seal and you can now sign things. And before they ask, tell them that I signed off on it. I'll get Gomez to draft the decree.”

The words were just coming out of mouth like they had no consequence. My brain kept telling me to stop but id happily rather deal with my Elders than have to deal with Elinna when she found out thst Chase was kidnapped.

Of course, she would find out eventually, but not right now. I wouldn't want to see her worried and crying because that would put pressure on me to find him quickly and things don't

    CARLISLE Pain. Sadness. All those feelings. Id been dead to them a long time ago. I also didn't want to feel anything. Feelings hadn't been the way I'd gotten to the throne. To get to where I am, id has to kill myself and free myself of a lot of things, sentiments included. That seat I sat on was made from blood, sweat and tears. All of which were mine. So no, I didn't have feelings anymore. “Let me help.” She took the bottle of rubbing alcohol from me. I could see the way her hands were shaking as she held the bottle over my chest. She swallowed hard. “This is going to sting.” It was like she was warning me. I just gave her a simple nod and then she poured it. I didn't even feel anything because my mind was focused on the fact that she was helping me. I didn't think she'd want to be anywhere close to me after what happened. “I’m sorry.” She didn't look up from what she was doing. I could see that she done this before, she didn't need to be told what to do. As s

    ELINNAGomez was the first person I saw on my way in. He gave me a smile and put down his tablet. “My Queen, what are you doing here? You could have called me over if-”I put my hand up to stop him. “Stop, I'm not here for you. Is he in?” He nodded, looking upstairs like he could see through the ceiling. “He was on a call the last time I saw him.”“What mood is he in?” Id learnt to ask that after what happened te last time I was here. I didn't want to walk in on him in a bad mood and feel the heat of his anger. “He’s okay, just busy with a few things but you can go see him.”I walked past him, going up the stairs. This was the first time I would be talking to him after what happened that day. Often times when my mind would go back to that day in his office, the butterflies in my stomach would always flutter at the thought of kissing him. It was ask intense, like something I had never experienced before. Well, I hadn't actually experienced it before that day. But the kiss was

    ELINNAWhen the doorbell rang that morning, it thought it was Gomez or one of the Elders. So I stood up quickly to go answer the door, only to be greeting by an army of maids and guards. “What is going on? Is there a problem?”The way the maids held their dusters and buckets like they were here for war even made it weirder. “Good day, my Queen. We're here on orders of the King. He has asked that we come over to help you take care of the things in the house.” Did he? Well, he finally did something right because I really needed help with the things around the house. This house was too big for me to clean up alone so I usually avoided moving around the house too much. I stepped aside and let them get to work while I just stood. Well, I wasn't alone anymore. There were now peopl here. Three maids walked up to me and curtsied. “My Queen, we are your personal maids. Please don't worry anymore and let us know if you need anything.”Personal maids…interesting. They all looked prett

    ELINNA“So what were you saying?”The meeting had been going on for about an hour now and I couldn't mention one thing that these men had said. They just kept beating around the bush and stammering. It was the fact that I was so tired or the fact that they kept fucking stammering that made it so damn hard to hear what they were saying. “I’m saying that things would be different with you in power. The people aren't used to a woman being on seat. They won't be happy with it. Maybe we should make on eof the elders the King for now-”I lifted my head, finally hearing what he was saying. Make an elder the King because the people won't be happy? Why? What for? Why would someone else be ruler of the kingdom when I was alive and well?I thought hard about the elders name before it finally clicked in my head. “Elder Lincoln, correct? See, I have nothing to say to you. The way you've been quiet throughout the other meetings, just remain quiet that same way. Don't say anything that will ma

    ELINNA“How could we let this happen, Gomez?!”I stopped with my hand on the door handle, trying not to get in the middle of something I shouldn't have. I'd come to the new house to speak to Gomez because he wasn't picking up his calls. I knew that I would bump into Carlisle but that didn't matter to me right now. Work was a good distraction to me and I won't let anything get in the way of that.What was going on? Were they fighting? I've never heard them fight before. “My King, I had no idea this would happen. I mean, when I checked, it didn't seem to be a problem by the time. But that's no excuse. My apologies. I'll fix this before it becomes a problem.”There was no response from Carlisle after that. What was going on? Maybe I should just go back and act like I didn't hear anything. But what if it was actually something I had done and this was now an issue? I was about to turn the handle when I heard Carlisle's loud-“Fuck!” Followed by the loud smashing of glass. It startle

    CARLISLEI blame myself. Who else was there to blame?Kesian? No, anything I did that night was because I knew that Kesian was in me and I did little to nothing to stop him from hurting her that night. But then again, what could I do to stop him? It's not like we had a schedule that let me and him come to the light alternatively. I barely knew anything he did and he didn't know anything I did either. But somehow, I wish there was something I could have done. “My King, are you listening to me?” I'd completely forgotten that Gomez was standing in front of me. I've forgotten what he was even talking about. “Yes, I am. Um, what did you say?”He sighed and sat down. “What is it? What are you thinking about?” I tried to recall the last thing I heard him say but all I could remember was bits and pieces and I didn't even know where to place them each. “Y-You said that he had dinner with her. Do you know what they talked about?”He thought about it for a while before shrugging. “No

    ELINNAWhen he unbottoned his cloth, I began wondering what exactly he was doing until I saw it. He looked up from his torso. “This is my seal, Elinna. This is who I am.” I was too frozen to even move and I was sure my mouth was open. His body was like a canvas. There were various scars, cuts and bruises on his body and his arms. They were all of different sizes and some looked more recent than others. When he started walking towards me, I didn't even realize it until he was standing in front of me and he took my hand in his.“Do I…scare you?” Right now, I didn't know what I was feeling. I wasn't scared because I had seen scars before but not this many and not on one person. He didn't look like he should be alive. He raised my hand to place it on his chest and I just left it there because I didnt even know what to do. There was a lump in my throat, stopping me from talking but then, I didn't even know what to say. “Say something, Elinna.”I didn't want him to think that I wa

    ELINNA“My Queen, the new house is ready.” I looked up from the papers in front of me, removing my glasses. “What? So quickly? Didn't they just start building it last week? How's it ready already?” I could hear some noise in the background, he was obviously still at the site. “They did but the King asked them to put a rush on it so it was all hands on deck. They're done with it and by this time tomorrow, they will have moved all the furniture into the house and it'll be ready.” Right now, I was in Carlisle old house. Kesian went somewhere, I didn't want to know so I didn't bother asking. All I told him on his way out was that he shouldn't let anyone see him because Carlisle was supposed to be sick. All he did was shrug and walk out. That was two days ago. I hadn't seen him since then and I didn't know where he went. I didn't know how to reach him either but I was sure that he was fine. As long as he wasn't doing anything stupid, I was fine. At least for now, we were working t
