Later that day, Thea was awake and she realized that the whole situation had died down and everything was almost normal. She was however surprised that Maxwell didn't kill her as he mentioned. Thea was still scared and hurt from everything. She left her room instantly to check on Ethan and his men. She remembered that the doors got opened but blanked out after that. She realized that they might have been the ones who came to save the kingdom. Thea was headed towards Ethan's chamber when she noticed the awkwardness in the atmosphere."Where is his Majesty?." She summoned the courage to ask one of the guards at the hallway."In his chamber. The Majesty isn't well." He announced."What's wrong with him?.""The imperial physician had been there since last night and he hasn't woken up yet." The guard explained. Thea froze for a moment. Did Maxwell successfully kill Ethan?. She managed to stroll away from the guard while she approached Ethan's chamber. Thea exhales sharply before she entere
"I tried to prepare one of my medicines, but I'm scared that it won't work." Thea revealed."Why do you say so? Your medicines always work." Gregory reminded. And he pulled her close. "Do not be dubious of yourself, Theadora. You make one of the best medicines." He complimented."But why haven't I been able to heal myself yet?." "You didn't make yourself this way." "I know, I was born this way. Weak and useless. Even the goddess hated me so much that she had to make my mate suffer this much." She lamented, gazing at Ethan who was still unconscious on the bed."What did you say?." Gregory thought he misheard when Thea mentioned her mate."Alpha Ethan is your mate? Your wolf could finally recognize its mate?." He questioned. Thea wanted to keep it a secret from Gregory since she knew how much he loved her, even though they were half siblings. She also didn't want anyone to know about her mate yet. Especially when it was Ethan. "I am not that important to him even if I'm his mate." T
It was time for Gregory to leave, although he was very disappointed that the issue with Alpha Ethan didn't let him have a good time with Theadora. He promised to revisit her when things weren't this way. Thea saw her brother off to the gigantic wooden gate which served as a protector around the palace. She had Kain escort her back into the palace afterwards.After a few days, while Thea was busy cleaning Ethan up, she felt his fingers grip her hand tightly and she gasped. He repeated the action which made her fear. Thea felt her heart beat faster and she stopped cleaning him instantly and observed the situation. Ethan didn't stop pressing her wrist and all of a sudden, his eyes opened. Thea swallowed deeply in her dried throat. Watching her husband wake up from his unconscious state after a week, she couldn't understand how she felt about it. Thea couldn't tell if she was excited and wanted to hug him or frightened by it. Their kind of marriage didn't warrant such actions as excitem
Ethan took up the paper for her to see. "Can you explain to us , princess? Why does this have your exact handwriting and is made of the same paper found in your box?." He inquired. Thea didn't speak and she stared at him in silence. She had been found out and nothing could save her from the punishment of Alpha Ethan."They're all mine." Thea confessed."You have committed a great crime against the Reigns' kingdom which led to an attack on the king. Do you have any words to justify your actions, Princess Theadora?" "Whatever I say is pointless. I will accept any punishment from you Alpha." Theadora suddenly became calm, Ethan didn't expect her to act that way. He wanted her to react and try to defend herself but Thea was doing the complete opposite by submitting to her crime."Take her and lock her up in the dark dungeon with no food or water." Ethan declared and he left. Thea was taken away by the guards while she watched Ethan go away with Becca.It was the next day but Thea didn
The physician finished examining Becca and he turned to Alpha Ethan who was in the same room as them."Your majesty. She is indeed carrying a baby." He bowed as he announced the news.Ethan turned to Kain who stood attentively behind him."Prepare to relay a message to the silverclaw pack. The princess rebelled and I cannot keep her anymore as a companion." "But, Alpha.""Let me speak." "Princess Thea is relieved off her title as the queen of this kingdom and the Luna if this pack." "As for you Becca, your status will be announced after a meeting with the pack's elders which I will hold by the end of this week." He assured."Thank you Alpha, I promise to take good care of our son till the day he breathes air." She declared.The news of Rebecca's pregnancy traveled quickly and almost all the Dark-Night pack became aware of it. Alpha Edward of the silverclaw pack had just received a message concerning Thea's divorce and he became devastated."Is it about Thea again?." Isabella asked.
During the night, Thea stood at the balcony of her room, enjoying the evening breeze which blew her hair backwards. This moment was priceless for her as she found peace and quietness in it. The sudden sound made by the door distracted her and she riveted her gaze to the room"Your highness, I have prepared a warm bath for you and also your medicine." She announced."You didn't leave with the guards?." Thea asked, surprised."I didn't. I couldn't bear to leave you here my princess. I will stay." "Thank you, Ina. But I don't need anyone to join me in my fight. I do not want to put you in trouble just like last time." Thea explained."I was born on purpose to serve you and I shall serve you. I got a letter from his Majesty Gregory." Ina began to unwrap her pouch and handed over a little piece of cloth to Thea. Thea wasted no time in checking and reading the contents of the letter. When she saw that it was empty, she remembered the ink. She had run out of chemicals to make it visible sin
While Thea and Ina reached outside the palace grounds, Thea was so excited that she yelled out in excitement and she breathe in the fresh air. She had always wanted to leave the palace. She hated the place and felt uncomfortable being there. "Let's go." Thea said to Ina and they resumed their journey to the market. Although it was evening already, Thea heard and knew alot concerning the chemical seller. The man opened his shop no matter what time of the day it is. They hastened their steps in order to reach there and return in time since they weren't using horses to carry out the journey. Ina was frightened to her bones as they walked through the woods. She had never pass through the place at night because of the dangers. She couldn't let The princess do it all alone so she had to brace up the courage to come with her. "Don't worry, we'll get there in no time." Thea spoke, reassuringly.Back at the palace, Kain realized that Thea was nowhere to be found so he decided to inform Alpha
It had been five days since the incidence and Thea was yet to wake up, she had been in comatose state and according to the physician, her health wasn't improving and she might sleep forever."How dare you say that about the queen of this kingdom? Do not like your life?.""Your majesty, I apologise for my utterances. I shall try my best to heal her." The physician pleaded."Nevermind, I don't think your treatment is effective enough for her. You are relieved from conducting treatment for the princess." Ethan said and the man was led out by guards.Ethan found himself sitting beside Thea and a feeling of remorse suddenly filled him. He didn't want to admit that he hated seeing her that way. She looked pale and lifeless on the bed and he couldn't bare to see that."Please wake up, Thea." He muttered.A knock came on the door sending him to his feet. Alpha Ethan didn't want to look agile in front of his servants.Kain walked in to relay a message from Becca."Your consort has fallen ill,
