Forty four
I entered the room which Faye was lying in while different healers ran around her trying to make her comfortable.
Her eyes brightened at seeing me, before when she smiled that way at me, I always thought that I was very lucky to have her, now all I can ask myself is what was I thinking?
What was I thinking by cheating on Gwenn with her? What was I thinking when I allowed her to leave the room with that baby? What was I thinking when I allowed the council to strong arm me into making her my concubine, breaking my marriage contract to Gwenn in the process? What the hell was I thinking when I allowed it to get to this level.
“Get out.” I said softly but my tone did not hide the steel behind my words, within seconds the room emptied of the healers that were waiting on her arm and foot.
“My king.” She started.
The second I reached her, my hand shot out and held her by the throat. “How many times did I warn yo

AriusGwenn is always giving big blows to my confidence without even knowing it, All I did was to tell her I love her and the next thing she does is to run away from the room as fast and far as she could like my words were contagious and me saying it to her was going to make her feel that way about me.Not like it was a bad thing. Heavens know that at least that girl deserves to be happy but she isn’t and it was all my fault.Maybe I was being too forward, I never told anybody other than my mother those words before and she didn’t run way, I can’t help but think it wasn’t the way I went about saying it but she just wasn’t happy with the words.Why will she happy? When I say that I love her and yet another woman has my baby. I was not sure I was ever going to live that down but I need her to see that she is the one whom I want, not Faye. I have been saying it for a long time now but she still refused to believe.This time, she

Gwenn Pov“What is going on?” I asked the Nisse who led the way as we walked. I have not been able to fully understand the whole passage ways and all but I knew the dining hall where our meals are taken but right now, we were going the opposite direction.The only thing that is preventing me from suspecting that she was trying to lead me into a trap or so was because she gave me a letter written by Arius who told me to trust her and follow her.“I don’t know, the king just requested your presence.” She answered as she stopped outside a garden. I looked into it to see a light shining brightly within it.“Am I supposed to go there?” I asked and when she nodded, I took in a deep breath and continued on my way, alone this time.I followed the light and it wasn’t long before I got to a table set simply and filled with Northerners delicacies, the few I liked.“You are here, perfect.” Arius said as he came close to me, i tho

I was certainly not expecting Arius to continue and make good his promise to try and change my mind but he did. The next day, I was awoken by a knock on the door and opening the door to find Arius on the other side, I was seriously tempted to slam the door shut in his face.“Hunting.” He offered when he saw the glare on my face and just like that, my mood became better.“Give me five minutes.” I responded and still took the pleasure in slamming the door at his face.Some minutes certainly longer than five minutes later when I hurried out of my room, in the process of tying my hair in a ponytail, I came to a sudden stop when I saw Arius rest on the wall beside my door.I was not expecting that. What I thought was that he would be outside the palace building but still in the compound, on his horse, huffing and puffing about how much time women took in getting ready.“I watched as Arius eyes took in my assemble but his lips cr

Arius and me decided to investigate a little before calling the attention of others here to see for themselves what had happened and ways for it to be corrected it if ever was going to be.Everything felt wrong and we saw more signs of struggles like the animals were struggling before they were taken alive. Everything was not only wrong but meant serious bad times too.This forest provided a quarter of total meat proportion for the whole of Northshore. “I am so sorry.” Arius apologized, his words broke my concentration at a pair of tracks to look at him.“What are you sorry for?” I asked confused at his words.“I had planned on making you have a fun hunting event not one that turned into an investigating session.” Arius said and looked down I smiled as I walked to him.“It was not your fault, you didn’t steal these animals, in fact you did no wrong at all. But you have to correct this wrong. Just like I do

“There has to be something done.” Isolde shouted into the mayhem of noise at the palace. After everybody had seen the circle, nobody wanted to remain there anymore, believing that the place was a cursed place and we all moved back to the palace to discuss and come up with new ways to handle what we just saw.I had honestly thought it was going to be handled rationally but as soon as we got to the council’s hall, hell broke loose as the council argued, each having different course of action for the Empire.Isolde own was that it could be fought.“How can you fight something that you cannot see?” Gogan said weakly.Me and Arius sat in a corner as we watch them haggle.“They think that they have the final say.” Arius whispered to me. “When they get this way which is only during crisis, the best thing for you to do is to let them exhaust their selves.”“Have you ever seen them like this?” I asked Ar

Faye povEvery time I see them together, my blood boils and I cannot help but feel angry, Anger I was told was not good for my baby, my future king but I couldn’t help myself.Not when he doesn’t even notice that I was standing by the door, watching him and Gwenn, not even when Gwenn saw me and she couldn’t hide the laughter in her eyes. I had turned to a laughing stock in the palace.The one who owns the king’s heart is the winner. I didn’t even have the consolation prize of being the queen, I was nothing but the king’s dirty, unwanted secret.The thoughts refused to stop passing through my head. I was nothing to the king even with my child the heir, I was still nothing.I screamed in anger as I use my hand to hit the bed in rage. I cannot lose. I won’t. The anger became pain but I refused to listen. I jumped on my feet and started to pace around. No there has to be something which I can do. There was no way that I would lose ev

GwennIt’s coronation day and I knew that I was supposed to feel happy at this but I wasn’t. Instead all I felt was calmness like something was coming and my mind was preparing me for it.“You look not so bad. Although I think the robes will be better if it covers your ugly mug of a face.” Themis teased.Her words forced a laughter out of me, I was not expecting her words but it was welcomed. She reminded me of the time where we would argue and insult each other. A war was looming then but we were happy and building our friendship. Now we had to grow up or rather, I had to grow up. Themis battle has passed and what is left is mine.“What if I fail?” I asked Themis, my tone low and my head down as if I was scared of his answer. “What if as a queen, I fail them Themis.”“Did I fail in my duty?” Themis asked and I glared at her.
