Pine felt she heard a crying sound. Even though Kevin had said and confirmed it was his father's voice, he didn't believe it at all."I know... this voice... this voice isn't a man's voice."She kept contemplating until he concluded. "Impossible!" she shouted and immediately ended her bathing activity.In a hurry and almost fell, Pine went to meet Kevin whom he found at work. "Kevin! Your father..." Pine paused."...Was your father... a woman?" she continued.Silence.Neither Kevin nor Pine made a sound.Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock."Vin..." Pine broke the silence."Ah...!" said Kevin back to his senses, "Sorry, can you repeat your question?" he asked."Your father... was your father a woman?" asked Pine again.Kevin blinked a few times. He was trying to get the point of Pine's question. He didn't expect Pine to ask something as ridiculous
Pine looked at the snow from her bedroom window. Her mind wandered somewhere. But behind the emptiness of her mind, she was still aware of Julio's footsteps coming into his room. "Is what Kevin said true? Is what he told the truth?" Pine asked Julio. Tap. Julio stepped forward, and approached Pine, "What story do you mean?" he asked. "King's Story." Silence. Julio immediately muted his voice. The heavy rain and snow made Pine recall the story Kevin told her. A story that only the main family of the Raltz Clan should know. A story that no one knows of its existence. The story that called the King's Story. *** "Once upon a time, there was a King. He was the leader of a kingdom known as the Kingdom of Lefko. A kingdom whose entire territory was covered with white snow," Pine replayed what Kevin had said while he was in her lap yesterday. "This king only cares about th
"Then the King changed his strategy. He still wanted to conquer Aima, but on the other hand, he also wanted to conquer the Crown Prince's heart. The king wanted to have her. A beauty that doesn't exist in his kingdom.""Unbeknownst to anyone, Aima is experiencing destruction due to the internal conflict. Their royal counselors staged a coup which was ultimately thwarted, but as a result of this coup the structure of Aima's government eventually fell.""Failed to capture Aima, this royal counselor ended up leaving for Lefko, meet the King. Intending to ally, he said, "I will help you get the Crown Prince. But in return, help me get Aima.".""The king didn't just accept this deal. With a lot of deliberation, he then said, "Aima will be yours, but Aima will only be the second influential kingdom. Lefko will be number one.".""Without further thought, the counselor finally agreed to the terms because for him
Kevin then continued the story of the King, "And as you may have guessed, Pine. The marriage failed. The Crown Prince ran away. She abandoned her marriage, her people, and her kingdom. In the end, Aima was destroyed.""Then, what about the fate of the King?" Pine recalled his question back then."The King's love for the Prince is truly sincere. He wants to make the Prince his Queen. With the power and authority he has, the King orders his troops to find the Prince.""However, unbeknownst to him, the Counselor has manipulated the government. He takes over the army and orders his assassination.""The Crown Prince died?" asked Pine."Yes, and the King has changed since then.""He became a dictatorial leader. All he did was keep his kingdom number one. He made Lefko his place.""The basement we are talking about before is where the King mourned for his first love, the place he met the Prince, and the place where the Prince breathed her la
Diana touched her head, she felt her head spinning. Slowly the light that entered her eyes dimmed, then darkened as time passed.Diana tried to come to her senses. She tried to get up, but her body resisted her will. Her body went limp and lowered her head until Diana finally lost consciousness.HAP!Reflexively, Rai immediately caught Diana's body which had fallen towards him. While the woman's eyes were closed, sweat was dripping down her forehead, and her chest was heaving up and down rapidly."Hei!" screamed Rai confused.Rai tried to shake Diana's body, but this woman did not respond and still closed her eyes. Placing his palm on Diana's forehead, Rai checked the woman's body temperature. The warmth of the heat immediately spread to Rai's cold hands.Rai sighed, "So you're going to keep quiet? Even after you silenced me for three days?"Without using any excess energy, Rai picked up Diana and put her on the bed. He then
However, Rai remembers Al's previous words, that the woman in this room are humans and should be treated as human beings in general. With a heavy heart and putting his ego also pride behind him, Rai knocked lightly on this door.Knock. Knock. Knock."It's me, Rai. Quickly open the door," he said softly.No reply, "It's me, open quickly!" he said the same but with emphasis at the end.Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!Rai knocked or more appropriately called pounding repeatedly with emotion, but this door still didn't open at all. Diana didn't even open the door or even respond. Rai became annoyed again."As for the human thing, I will destroy this damn door!!" he said and threw his feet to kick this door.BAM!Rai successfully managed to kiss the floor. He fell hard because the door suddenly opened. While Diana who was beside the door gave a questioning look."What are you doing?" she ask
"Did she intend to stab me or something?" he muttered.However, Rai immediately shook off his thoughts, then focused on what he wanted to do."I was confused because I had never eaten human food, let alone peel a mango."Rai was finally able to do it even though it took a long time. He peeled the mango thoroughly, then put the fruit he had peeled into a glass not far from him."Now the question is—" Rai looked at Diana who was lying weakly, "—how do I give this mango to her?"***Krrttt...Al came, he opened the door but then immediately averted his gaze to the side. "What are you doing?" he asked surprised.The thing that made Al avert his eyes was because of Rai's actions toward Diana. With his own eyes, he saw Rai giving food to Diana who was leaning on her body.However, Rai does not give food by feeding it with a spoon. This vampire uses his mouth instead. Rai put the
"Your crown... I've found it, Pate," she said.Pate took the photo and looked at it. "So this is another Prince?" he looked closely at the photo he was holding, "Or half Prince?" he asked with a hideous smile."Fos found her in Raltz Castle. This woman is there and is under Kevin's protection," Kori said.Pate propped his chin, "Both the King and Prince, they share the same destiny. Always stealing what belongs to others," he commented with his eyes turning blood red."Search for detailed information on everything. Don't miss a single thing, and watch this woman closely, I don't want to lose my crown again. That power... must be mine," he ordered.Kori nodded in understanding. Pate told her to leave and Kori just left. After that, Pate continued to stare at the photo given to him. The photo shows a woman with milky white skin and blood-red hair."What have you done, I will repay, Queen," Pate thought with a sinister grin.
