Amara’s POV

Panic surged through me like fire licking at my insides, though the house was silent. I glanced down at the tiny, lifeless body lying on the bed. My son. My little baby. His face looked almost peaceful now, as though he had simply drifted into sleep. But there was no rise and fall in his chest, no tiny fists clenching, no faint cry to disturb the night. He was gone.

For a long moment, I just stood there, staring at him, willing him to move. I wanted to hear that soft whimper again, even the wails that had once grated on my nerves. Anything but this silence. My trembling fingers brushed his cold cheek, and the truth struck me harder than any blow ever could, my baby was dead.

A thousand emotions warred inside me, grief, anger, shame, relief. I should have screamed. I should have fallen apart. But instead, numbness coated me like ice. I couldn’t let him stay here. Not tonight, not in my house.

It was nearly midnight, the perfect time to do what no mother should ever do. I w

  • In Love With The Prince    Elena's assurance.

    Albert’s POVWe stepped out of the hospital into the cool evening air. For a moment, I just stood still, breathing in deeply, trying to steady my heart. The air outside was lighter than the suffocating silence I had endured while waiting for Elena, but it did nothing to calm the storm inside me.The whole time she was with Gilan, I tried to remain calm. I told myself again and again that I trusted her, that love was stronger than jealousy, and that she came here only because her conscience demanded it. But my chest still tightened every second she was in that room with him.I imagined her sitting by his side, holding his hand, perhaps shedding tears for him. I pictured him weak and fragile, whispering her name, asking her to stay. And I feared, truly feared, that she might feel pity for him. That pity could turn into love again, or at least into something strong enough to make her choose him over me.And if that happened, what would become of me?I shook off the thought, but it clung

  • In Love With The Prince    Seeing Gilan in a hospital bed.

    Elena’s POVWe arrive at the hospital, and before Albert can even say anything, I hurry down the hallway, my footsteps echoing faintly against the tiled floor. The air inside feels cold and sharp, filled with the scent of antiseptics and disinfectants. Every step I take makes my fear tighten in my chest. My hands tremble as I clutch my handbag, holding on to it as though it could steady me.I prayed silently that Gilan was alright. That I wasn’t too late, if he had truly managed to end his life because of the pain of our broken love, I don’t think I would ever forgive myself. The guilt would crush me, haunt me endlessly, and it would be unbearable for me to handle. I stop at his door, my heart beating so loudly. I feel as though the whole corridor can hear it. I turn to Albert, who has been walking quietly beside me. His face is drawn, his eyes heavy with sadness.“I will go in now,” I say to him, forcing strength into my voice. I hand him my handbag with shaky fingers.Albert acc

  • In Love With The Prince    My first time at the palace.

    Elena’s POVWe stopped in front of the palace gates, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe. I had never been here before. To most people, the palace was just an image on the news, a faraway world of royalty and perfection. Now I was here, standing in front of towering gates, golden designs gleaming against the sunlight, and walls so tall they seemed to touch the sky.The guards moved swiftly. One of them stepped forward, bowing slightly before opening my door. His courtesy felt heavy, as though reminding me that I was stepping into a world far above mine.“Your names, please,” another guard said firmly, handing us a book, and Albert and I sign.My fingers tremble as I write my name. It felt so strange, writing it here, as though this simple act marked me forever, Elena, a poor girl who never belonged, now stepping into the place that had once rejected her.“My love, I want you to wait for me in the car,” I whisper to Albert as I hand the pen back. My voice shakes, but I try to sound fi

  • In Love With The Prince    The continuous fear

    Albert’s POVThe morning had started perfectly. I had woken up with Elena curled against me, her warmth pressed into my chest, her breathing soft and steady. Every time I looked at her like that, I felt as if life had finally given me the gift I had long prayed for. She was mine, and we belonged to each other.So I had decided that I would not go to work today. No business calls, no meetings, and no distractions, just her. Just us. I wanted a day when she would feel the depth of my love in every small thing.I cooked breakfast with that love guiding every movement. Likewise, I could hear her laugh faintly from the living room while the television played in the background. The sound filled me with warmth.“Babe, come, breakfast is ready!” I called, plating the food with a smile.Her voice came back, light and teasing: “Come here, babe. Let’s eat here. I don’t want to come there.”I chuckled, shaking my head. That was Elena, stubborn and sweet. “Coming!” I answered.Carrying the tray,

  • In Love With The Prince    Learning about Gilan.

    Elena’s POVI had never regretted choosing Albert. Not even once. From the day I first looked into his eyes, I knew I was safe. He was my home, my joy, my shield from the storm of life. He wasn’t just a man to me, he was my everything. That is all I can say without drowning in the depth of it.“Babe, come, breakfast is ready!” his voice rang from the kitchen, warm and playful, like music drifting across the house.I was curled up on the couch, half-distracted by the television but more by the comfort of simply being here. In this moment. In this life with him. “Come here, babe. Let’s eat here. I don’t want to come there,” I call out, laziness tugging at my voice.“Coming,” he replies, and I could hear the smile in his voice.Albert. He was always the best. Gentle when I needed softness, strong when I needed to lean, patient when I faltered. I was tethered to him with every fiber of my being. Gilan’s face didn’t haunt me anymore. His memory had dissolved into the past where it belonged

  • In Love With The Prince    Hellen is gone too

    Amara's povI stood under the shower, the warm water cascading over me, but it couldn’t wash away the filth of last night, the blood on my hands even if there was none. When I stepped out, I dressed carefully, painted my lips, and straightened my hair. My reflection stared back at me, hollow-eyed but determined.Today was not for mourning. Today was for revenge.Helen’s neighborhood always disgusted me. The narrow paths, the peeling walls, the stench of poverty that clung to everything. How had I ever chosen her as my friend? I had given her access to my world of wealth and luxury, and she had repaid me with betrayal.I reached her shabby door and knocked. Each second that passed stretched endlessly, my pulse quickening. Just when I thought she wouldn’t answer, the lock clicked, and the door creaked open.She looked tired, her eyes swollen as though she hadn’t slept. “Amara?” she asked, confusion lacing her voice.I forced a smile that didn’t reach my eyes and pushed my way inside. “I
