ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 138: Blades and bonds
William was seated under the shade of a tree, cleaning the blade of his sword with a ragged material. His attention was completely fixed on what he was doing; his gaze hardly faltered. There were three swords and a dagger on the ground. He picked them up one by one and cleaned them with zeal; they were the only possession he valued…the only things he could actually lay claim to.He allowed his hands to trace the edges of the blade; the sunlight reflected on it, casting a blinding refraction.Like every other morning, Leah knew she would find her brother in the barracks yard, basking under the morning sunlight, while preparing for his training."A lovely morning, William."She purred, calling him by his name; that was odd.William didn't raise his gaze; he could tell who the owner of the voice was, and he practically ignored her. Lining up his sword, he scanned them thoroughly before nodding his head in satisfaction.Leah flexed her fingers, her right hand moving to the ring on he
ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 137: Summoned
Hamstung - Slaver's Bay "You have been summoned by Prator." A man with a husky voice whose shadow towered over Joya's said with a voice high-pitched and loud enough for Merlin, who was washing her dress by the riverbank, to hear. Merlin didn't raise her gaze from what she was doing. One thing she had learned in her stay in the slaver's bay was to mind her business and keep her head down whenever the officers in command were talking. Joya dropped the ragged dress she was washing and rose to her feet. She glanced at Merlin, but her gaze wasn't returned. "Move on!The grumpy man urged, and Joya immediately started making her way towards the officers' cabin. She was escorted by the man all the way to the Prator's cabin The man stopped some distance away when they arrived, then turned around and took his leave. Joya was simply baffled; she contemplated whether or not to go in but remained rooted to the spot she was standing.The officers' cabin was built slightly above the main ba
ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 136: Escape (2)
"Noooo!Micah screamed, her hand shot out, and she clutched the wall just as she was about to tumble and fall. Her firm grip kept her from plunging down.Her eyes flashed with horror, suddenly softened when she was able to regain her balance.She staggered back from the opening, her cloak sweeping against the wet stone as the faint light from the lantern in her hand flickered over her pale face.Her steps were slow and unsteady, the echo of her boots mingling with the dripping sound of water from above. She pressed her back against the wall, her breath shallow, her hawk gaze surveying her surroundings. "Cursed fortune! She snarled, her breath hitched.She didn't waste any more time to think of her predicament; she immediately turned on her boots and made her way back through the same route she had taken. When Micah had discovered these hidden tunnels, she only saw the end of some of the tunnels before retreating back. The particular tunnel she had taken, she had never laid eyes u
ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 135: Escape
The chamber was silent save for the soft gliding of a feathered ink pen across a parchment. Seated behind her gilded desk was a queen, her posture regal, her expression composed yet thoughtful. Candlelight flickered gently upon her features, casting long shadows that danced across the marble walls. It was Micah.With each stroke, the quill moved gracefully, its dark ink flowing in steady lines—measured, deliberate, and unhurried. Occasionally, her gaze drifted to the moon outside, and in that stillness, the moonlight caught the shimmer of unshed tears in her eyes.Then, with quiet resolve, she resumed—her hand steady, the pen gliding once more with elegant precision. When at last she set the pen aside, she reached out for a small, withered lily resting upon the desk, a flower long dead, yet precious still.She placed it gently on the scroll, pressing it there with trembling fingers.Soon, the chair upon which she sat scraped softly against the floor as she pushed it backward. The
ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 134: His other side
Micah was seated on her bed, a book cradled in her hand. The cool night breeze drifted in, stirring some strands of her hair and the pages of the book before her. The candlestands in the chamber flickered softly, casting golden ripples across her face. Her eyes were fixed on the open book, yet her mind had wandered, lost somewhere between memory and thoughts.Her eyes twitched as the memory of Selena's horrified expression replayed in her mind. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shake off the image—the cold, piercing hatred that had burned in that woman's eyes was louder than any words that were spoken.The queen dowager, Selena, has never had any reason to like her, but now, she definitely has a reason to despise Micah.After months without a single person to call a friend, she now has an enemy, simply detestable.The chamber was serene; the only sound Micah could hear was the thumping of her own heartbeat. Then suddenly— The door creaked open with a slight bang!Ragaleo
ROYAL BLOOD Chapter 133: Open Secrets
"That was the King Harris dead body! "Keep quiet, Tamar; it hasn't been confirmed yet." Rosa snapped at her colleague before wiping her wet hand on her maid uniform. Tamar's brows creased."What more evidence do you need? Isn't it obvious? The dowager queen is really exceptional. Having the corpse of her husband hidden months after he died."Celin, Tamina's personal handmaid, chipped in, her fast hand chopping some vegetables with practiced ease."The princess, Leah, confirmed it. So did her mother, Queen Johanna. The corpse has been moved from the room into the guest room. Apparently, Queen Micah broke the handle of the lamp, and the secret wall path couldn't be shut."It was Tamar talking; she was doing the dishes. Scrubbing the plates with a sea sponge before dropping them in a huge bowl filled with water, then Linn, Jazell's handmaid, did the rinsing and drying of the dishes. Rosa picked up a big wooden ladle and then began to stir the bubbling stew on the fire. The pot was
