Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 155– SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE KING
JULIAN I had asked Mark to be quiet, to keep his wild ideas to himself. But I had seen it, the change in Adam. Mark was not exaggerating. Only a couple of hours ago I was busy coaxing him because he was afraid, he wouldn’t be a good king. That the people wouldn’t listen or respect him. We stayed with him until midnight. Mark even fell asleep on the day bed while Adam kept waking up from nightmares.I only left him before dawn and now he was different. It had only been three hours since we separated, what changed? “You have doubts as well, I can it.” I ignored Mark, the ministers were still around, I didn’t want them thinking there was something wrong. “Let’s go find your sister-in-law, she might know something we don’t.” Mark clasped his hands excitedly.I shook my head helplessly; everything was a joke to him. “Mark.” He hummed in response. “The man at the frontier.” I paused thinking that would change his mood, but nothing changed. He stopped walking with a huge grin on his face. “
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 154– TO HELL WITH THEM
MARK Adam didn’t like King Magnus’s last comment. He stood, “Prince Regent, Duke, Minister of war, Princess Malia and father. Join me in the study, now.” He didn’t wait for anyone else to say something. He walked off with his personal guard trailing behind him. I stared in the direction he disappeared to wondering when he became so mature. He was a kid just yesterday who was scared of taking the throne. Today he was talking to us like he had been king all his life. “Sister-in-law, stay here and enjoy yourself. We won’t be long.” I stood and rushed to my brother’s side. “What did you do to our little brother?” Julian frowned. “What are you talking about?”He was acting as if he didn’t notice the change in him. “Didn’t you see how intimidating he was just now? and his voice was so commanding. What was that about?” Julian just shook his head and followed our brother to the study.I was right behind him. I still couldn’t wrap my head around the sudden change. “Do all kings automaticall
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 153– SUSPICIOUS
JULIAN I looked at Malia and her father. It didn’t need a genius to see right through their little scheme. Malia’s brother was killed by the Queen Dowager’s people almost two years ago. Her father had not said a word after his body was returned. He took his body and buried him. Now that he had lost the war, he came knocking and asking for compensation.The timing was too convenient. Magnus had accepted the compensation almost two years ago without protest. Now that he had lost the war, he wanted more. Malia wanted to marry my father after being quiet for so long as well. She also refused to leave the palace with him.That was suspicious. Why would she insist on staying in the palace when father was leaving? What was she staying for? she was planning something, I just didn’t know what, yet. But I would find out and I would make sure that she and her father never get what they want. I would also make sure she leaves the kingdom. She had overstayed her welcome. It was either she leaves
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 152 – TWISTS OF KING ADAM’S CORONATION
HELENAWe had not even caught our breaths, yet when the Adam’s coronation day arrived. It was meant to be an intimate thing. A few noble houses and the royal family. But that was not how it went. General Joe had won in the frontier and arrived the day before the coronation. Princess Malia’s father arrived as well. Which came as a shock to all of us. We didn’t know if Malia was the one who invited him. Well, there was no one else who could have invited the king but Malia. But then again, everyone knew that father and daughter never got along. Malia only got along with the brother who died by the Queen Dowager’s hand. So, his arrival raised questions. We didn’t know what his intensions were. His son did die on our soil, and we never heard anything from the king after that. They just kept us busy on the frontier, attacking us day and night. Now, General Joe had won and came back home.Then the king followed. It couldn’t be coincident.“I will be right back.” Julian said as soon as he s
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 151 -HE FINALLY CAME HOME
HELENAI left the shop early and went home. I wanted to prepare the meal myself, it had been a long time since my husband and I shared a meal. Long before the whole ordeal started, before he left with Mark to the frontier. When he came back, everything had turned into a mess, and we never had a chance to even talk properly. At home, I prepared several dishes with the help of the servants but his favourites, I had prepared myself. “My lady, the Regent is back.”My actions paused, it was the first time in over a week since I last saw him. Work at the palace had kept him away and busy. “Take the dishes, I will be right there.” Rose led the servants and went to set the table. I finished the cold drink I was preparing, poured it into a small jug and took it to the table. Julian sat at the table looking out the window.He had not noticed my presence in the room until I spoke. “You are home.” He stiffened; I stared at him. Julian had never reacted like that with me. I sat down. It took Ju
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 150 – FACING MY WIFE
JULIAN “How long are you going to keep doing this?” Mark asked as soon as he walked into the door. I was in father’s study in the palace. Preparing for Adam’s coronation. Many things were already done by the Minister of Rights. I was left with only miner things to sort out. “What are you talking about now?” I didn’t even look up. “I saw your wife.” The brush froze hid air; ink dripped onto the page smudging the words I had already written. After a moment, I gently placed it down, took the page and threw it away before laying down a new one. “She asked me to tell you to come home early.” My stomach dropped. I had planned on dragging it for as long as I could.Maybe until after the coronation. But now she asked me to come home, what excuse would I give her if I don’t go? “Julian.” I slowly lifted my heard. “How is she?” Mark sighed taking a seat. “She pretended to be fine, but I could tell she was not fine.” I stood abruptly; the chair fell behind me. “What is wrong with her, is she
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 3 – SAVED, I THOUGHT
HELENAPain surged through my body as I tried to sit up and get myself off the ground. The pain was sharp and sudden. Chasing away the last traces of weakness I had. Along with it, the hope of survival. In my condition, it didn’t matter what I did. I couldn’t fight my way through what was coming. I
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 6– THE JOURNY
HELENA The silence after his words felt heavier than anything he had said before. I didn’t speak again; there was nothing left to argue with. He had already decided I was something still unfinished and that was somehow worse than being worthless. I needed to leave, get the hell out of there. with
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 5– AND SO, IT BEGINS
HELENA Sunrays seeped through the cracks in the wooden walls. It didn’t feel like morning. It felt like survival continued. I woke slowly, my body stiff in ways that made every breath feel like a reminder of what had happened. For a moment, I didn’t move. I didn’t think. Just lay there, staring at
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 4 - FRIEND OR FOE
HELENAHe was back, panic flared. Should I run? stupid thought. Where would I go? How far could I get with a broken body and no strength? Begging? Maybe that would work. He was alone now. That had to mean something. He had lied for me. Maybe, just maybe he meant to help. I looked up at him, searchi
