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
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 68 – PAWN IN PLACE
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
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 65 – BROTHER’S TEST & A THREAT
JULIAN “Can we have more quiet days like this?” I wanted nothing more than to spend more days like that with her. we were sitting in the courtyard under the peach tree. I planted that in the house I bought for us. I wanted her to have the scent of home, like the peach tress she had back in the village. “Things are still unstable, I don’t know what my brother is planning but after his last visit, I fear he is not done.” Helena sighed leaning on my shoulder. I closed my eyes savouring the feeling. We didn’t get many days like these. She was always busy with her business while I was busy building the kingdom break by break. Draining my vault in the process. “Let us not think about your brother for now.” I tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. “I know you don’t like him but, he is not as foolish as I thought. With my third brother gone, my second brother is finally showing his fangs, and they are full of poison.” Mark was not the clueless womaniser I thought he was.Maybe he was hold
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 64 – MINISTER’S REFUSAL
KING“My king, we understand that the queen has been gone for years now but you cannot marry the princess.” The minister of works face twisted as he said it. it was like he couldn’t imagine me having that girl as my empress. “Minister, I understand your concern, but the kingdom needs an empress, I am still in my prime and having someone to share my burden is not a bad idea.” Minister of revenue stepped forward, that one was very calculating. If my son had half the sense as his big brother, he would go after this man, get me evidence to put him in jail. “Your Highness, you have many women in the harem, women from this kingdom, noble daughters, anyone of them would make a good empress.” Next, he would recommend his daughter. He smiled warmly, so he thought as all I could see was the calculation behind that smile. “Take the grand tutor’s eldest daughter for example, she is talented, calm and educated. There are also even better ones with a good temperament, good background and powerful
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 7– SAFE HAVEN, ALMOST
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
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
