Elaina read the scroll in her hand again and glanced at Xavier in doubt and disbelief.

It read: His Majesty is requesting the presence of Elaina to join him for dinner at the palace tonight.

When Xavier had arrived at the tavern himself to give her the scroll, she was very shocked to see him. Xavier was a prideful man and would never deliver a message to someone so lowly personally, he would normally send his men to deliver it. Which meant that whatever Xavier had come for was of great importance.

At first Elaina panicked and thought he had found out her secret but when he presented the scroll, she was very confused. She had to read it twice to confirm what she read and no matter how doubtful she was, the royal stamp on it confirmed that it was authentic.

“What is this? The King wants to see me?” she asked again to Xavier, as if hearing it from his mouth would finally make her believe it.

“Yes. I reported to him about our progress and he requested to see you” Xavier answered.

    ‘Such wrong timing, what is the king doing here?’ Xavier wondered with a frown. Elliot and Xavier exchanged panicked looks, it was too late to run and hide, besides it would arouse more suspicion if Alfred spotted them. Meanwhile king Alfred had already stepped out of the carriage by now, it was already too late so they decided to face the king head-on. “Greetings, your majesty” They both bowed to show their respects. Alfred was surprised to hear their voice, he had been too caught up in his thoughts to notice them and only looked up at that moment. ‘What is Lord Elliot doing here in with Xavier? I don't recall them talking to each other before’ he asked himself. As someone who got thrown into royalty, he had learnt to keep his friends close and enemies closer. That was why he strategically picked his councilmen to be people who disliked each other. That way, he was avoiding a possible gang up on him and it seemed to have been working well so far. “Lord Elliot, I didn't kn

    "Welcome to my humble manor, feel at home, I'll send for some tea and snacks” Xavier said with a friendly smile as he welcomed Lord Elliot into the hall.Xavier acted his part judiciously, it was his only option and he was extra careful this time to ensure it went smoothly.“Thank you for hospitality Lord Xavier, I won't be staying long so please don't bother with snacks” Elliot waved off as he walked in. He was still skeptical about Xavier's notice, everyone knew him to be full of himself.“Nonsense, please, I insist. I have been worried about the situation of the king for a while and it weighed on my heart that I could not discuss my worries with anyone. Finding you is a great relief” Xavier replied with hopeful eyes.Elliot eyed him for a second longer before saying, “I have to agree that sharing thoughts with another can be relieving, the king had been bothering me too”Xavier chuckled and gestured, “Then relax friend, we are doing good by thinking about the Kingdom's future, it i

    Everyone fell silent and stood up to greet the king as he walked into the hall. Xavier stepped aside in surprise to see him, why would he show up now?Alfred ignored Xavier and everyone else, he had a blank look on his face as he sat on his throne. He paused for a few seconds with an unreadable expression on his face before saying, “I didn't come here for a meeting, I have other engagements to attend to. I only came here to announce that I do not see the need to have these meetings so frequently, therefore I am reducing the schedule to only once a month. So adjust accordingly and we shall meet again next month” With that, he stood up and began to walk out of the room.The council members were shocked by the new development and itched to object but held themselves back. The king’s words were law, objecting him was punishable by death. It was only after he left that they burst into heated discussions about the strange announcement. Xavier was also taken aback but not too surprised, he

    “Your mother, Aurora, is a very strong woman. She had waited to give birth to you just so she could hand you over to me and leave to help your father secure his safety. It was even a struggle to keep her around for a few days so she could rest. She eventually left the kingdom with Sade and I fostered you for 12 months in secret” “A year is a long time to leave a newborn baby, why did she take so long?” Elaina was not a mother but she could imagine how hard it must have been to leave her child for that long thereby missing out on her child's first moments. “That was not our original plan but she must have faced some struggles on her journey to the dragon kingdom, I could only wait with hope that she returned soon. When she did, the dragon search had died down but she still tried to keep your existence a secret. But by the time Aurora returned she had been replaced by Lord Xavier and was now only a magician, she had lost all her benefits given so graciously by the king. She had to com

    “From reaching the pinnacle of power in the kingdom, Aurora, your mother's downfall didn't just happen at once. It spanned over a couple years and unfortunately time cannot be reversed to fix it. It all started one faithful evening…”****“Aurora, people are talking, I am worried” Young Reina said as she watched the moon shining brightly in the sky. She had been restless for some days now due to the side gossips that she had been hearing in the palace about Aurora.“What are you worried about?” Aurora asked feigning ignorance as she watched the moon too. They were both laying on the grass to watch the night sky, it was their favorite spot to meet since they were always so busy during the day.“Oh please, you know what I'm talking about but since you want me to say it then I will. The man beast, Aurora. The one you secretly brought into the kingdom two months ago. People are starting to talk, it's becoming clear he is not from around here” Reina answered, her voice thick with worry and

    Elaina and the old woman walked for over twenty minutes and Elaina couldn't help but wonder how her fragile body could handle such distances everyday.They walked in silence and Elaina tried to get her to answer some questions impatiently but the woman refused with a saying, “The walls have ears my dear child, what I am about to tell you should not be heard by anyone so carelessly”Elaina had no choice than to wait patiently till they arrive at the house. They soon passed a narrow road almost covered with grasses and the house finally came in view. The old cottage house was almost at the outskirts of the slum, there was no other houses close to it, only surrounded by trees and grasses it looked like an abandoned hut from afar. The only good thing that pleased Elaina was the small clean stream by the side of the house and the peace and quiet from being secluded. “My name is Reina in case you are wondering, just call me Reina. Also, welcome to my home, Elaina” She spoke up as she walk
