JULIAN

The queen dowager’s decree arrived, just as I knew it would. I accepted it. the moment the guard left, I sent every maid and guard out of the Eastern palace. The only people left were my personal guard, the cook and the guard at the gate. She wanted me on house arrest; I was going to do it without her people around.

“Your highness.” The guard from the gate greeted as he walked in holding an envelope. “Your highness, someone at the gate gave this to me.” he handed the envelop to me then l

  • Surviving the World to Escape Him   CHAPTER 71 – FEAR

    JULIANAfter leaving Helena, I rode my horse hard to the palace. I wanted to find out what my grandmother wanted from her. I wasn’t about to let her enter the palace blindly. My grandmother was not someone we could underestimate. I would rather be safe and prepared than sorry.When I got to the palace the guards tried to stop me, I pushed him away and walked right into father’s study. He was with the minister of works. They both turned when I walked in. the minister quickly stood and bow. “Prince Regent.” I ignored him and looked straight at father. “What did you tell the Queen Dowager about her?”Father frowned. “Julian, I am in a meeting, you can’t just barge in here and say what you want. you didn’t even greet me.” I turned to the minister and threw him a glare. He smiled awkwardly. “Prince Regent, the king and I were just discussing the weap

  • Surviving the World to Escape Him   CHAPTER 70 – SUMMONED

    HELENAI was busy at the shop sorting people’s orders to be sent out for delivery when a palace maid arrived with two guards. “Lady Helena.” I was stunned for a moment not sure what to say or do. My mind raced, it went to the one thing I was most afraid of, people finding out I was once a palace maid who ran away. My palms started sweating as fear rose from within me. I could see the maid’s mouth moving but I couldn’t hear a thing of what she said. “Lady Helena?” Rose, the maid Julian had gotten for me, shook me slightly and I snapped out of it. The palace maid in front of me had a warm smile on her face. “Apologies, I got distracted for a moment, what were you saying.” her smile widened as she waved it off. “It’s alright Lady Helena. My name Annie, one of Queen Dowager’s maids, I was asked to delivery a message to you.” My heart skipped a beat. I wondered what the queen dowager could possibly want from me. The woman once sent people after me back at the village, if it weren’t for

  • Surviving the World to Escape Him   CHAPTER 69 – CLOSE THE NET

    JULIAN “Why do you look troubled, did something happen with the project.” Asked Helena coming in holding a bowl of warm porridge. She placed it in front of me then came around the desk and started massaging my shoulders. “Everyone at the palace has made their move except for one person.” She said nothing.“Father plans to marry the princess to prevent the war, the Queen Dowager had prince Alaric killed to cut Malia’s support. She wants her alone and powerless. Now…” I turned to her. “Mark is making is move,” I leaned on my stomach. “If he is planning to do what I think, then things could change in the kingdom.”She stopped massaging me and came to sit on the desk in front of me. “There are only two things your brother could do that could change the fate of this kingdom.” She looked me in the eye. “One, he is planning a coup to take over the throne, two, he is planning to get rid of the queen dowager. Which one is likely?” I didn’t know Mark as well as I thought I did.“Either one is

    MARK“Your Highness, why have you called me here.” Still so gullible. “Everyone, leave us.” All the servants left, only nanny Wang remained. Time to put on a show. “Nanny Wang.” I weakly called out to her from the bed. “Come closer.” She came closer, her eyes widened when she saw the state I was in. “Your Highness, what happened?” she asked looking worried.Oh, nothing Nanny Wang, I just took a little poison to make this show of ours work. How else could this prince make a clever servant like you believe and pity him. “What else could it be, Nanny Wang.” I looked at her with a mocking smile. “You took care of me once when I was poisoned like this.” I coughed a couple of times.“This prince must have angered her again somehow. This dose is even stronger.” A laughed breathlessly then coughed harder, biting the insides of my cheeks to draw some blood. I deliberately lowered the handkerchief for her to see the blood before hiding it away.”“I afraid will die this time. My poor health cann

  • Surviving the World to Escape Him   CHAPTER 67 – NOT HELPLESS, YET

    MALIA “Find a way to get this to the second prince.” I handed a note to my maid. The queen dowager thought locking me up was going to stop me from avenging my brother. She had another thing coming from now on, I was going to make her sleep with one eye open. She thought killing my brother and locking me up was going to clip my wings.She was about to have a rude awakening. She was counting on my big brother and father being selfish bastards who wouldn’t lift a finger to help a political pawn like me. I would let her think that for now. let her think she had me where she wanted me. She would know when I strike that I was no helpless princess.I lay on my day bed think about my brother. Tears fell from my eyes at the thought of him. he was a brute who protected me with everything he had. I had not gotten a chance to make it up to him yet. Make him proud and protect him. instead, he got killed because of me. “Don’t worry brother, your sister will avenge you.”“My princess, it is deliver

  • Surviving the World to Escape Him   CHAPTER 66 – NOISE

    QUEEN DOWAGER Boom! The door was kicked open and in walked the princess. Red in the face with four maids following behind. She was acting like a queen already, yet the coronation had not happened yet. I slowly moved tealeaves with the lid of the cup as I watched her come and stood in front of me huffing.“You bitter old woman, what have you done?” she pointed a finger at me with her face twisting in anger. “Why the noise early in the morning?” that seemed to make her even angrier. A vicious laugh escaped her lips, it was sharp and piercing. She sounded like a mad woman.The noise irritated me. “You care about noise? What about my brother!” I calmly placed the cup on the side table, folded my hands on my lap and looked at her. “Are you going to tell me what you are yelling about or are you going to keep yelling here like a shrew?” she was so angry that she laughed like a woman possessed.If I had known I would get such a reaction from her, I would have acted much earlier. “A shrew, yo

    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

    HELENA The forest felt different when I was alone in it. not emptier. Just honest. Every sound mattered now. every snap of a branch. Every shift in the wind. Every breath I tried to keep steady. There was no one left to decide what I was worth. No one left to watch. Only the path. Only me.I follo

    HELENA I thought I could go on after that. But I didn’t even take five steps before my body refused to cooperate. I looked back, I was already far from the palace, it wouldn’t hurt to rest. I spotted bushes not far from the road. I slowly walked there, dragging my throbbing foot. When I got to the

    HELENA “Fire, everyone out! there is a fire.” Smoke choked me before I was fully awake. I coughed rushing out of the servants’ quarters. When I got outside it was chaos, maids and guards running around like headless chickens with buckets of water trying to put out the fire. I stood there in daze w
