Could this just be a coincidence? Roseline thought.
"Roseline? Is there a problem?" The princess asked, realizing how deep in thoughts Octavia was.
"Um...Yeah. I mean, I don't know. It's just thar..."she paused and licked her lower lip.
"The guy I just told you about - Marcus - the one who sold me out"
"Yes? Yes?" Martha nodded in agreement.
"Um...When I was still at his place,, a Friend of his had come to visit him and this friend actually warned me to run away because Marcus was a bad person. My point is - his name was Aiken".
Martha paused.
"Although, I know there could be a hundred Aikens in the world, but I just felt like letting you know that i met someone who's name was also Aiken".
"Yeah, I understand" Martha muttered as she stared at the floor in thought.

Marcus!!" Aiken shrieked in fright, his eyes dilating in shock.What the hell is that??? What's happening???His eyes went round immediately and found the shooter at the top of a fence, trying to fix another arrow into his bow.Marcus had already dropped to the floor, bleeding profusely and it was obvious he wasn't gonna make it. And without further hesitation, Aiken started running away before the Archer would finish up."Damn it!" The archer groaned as he watched the boy running away.His hands shook a little as he tried fixing the arrow into the bow but by the time he finally did, the boy was already out of sight.He stood up from his position immediately and started the race - trying to run after him.No! He couldn't lose the boy. Not now! Not when he was so close.He'd been trying to shoot at him, but the stupid friend was standing in the way and running out o

Roseline felt relief and energy pumping right into her body.Hold on; did she just hear him correctly???"Y...You can help??" Martha asked with dilating eyes."I... think so. Although, I was still little back then, but I can recall some of the things mum had used in performing the ritual". He answered.."Ritual?" Roseline asked, finding the word scary."Ysah. But it isn't the kind of ritual you think it is. Both of you just need to lay in sperate boxes and...some items would be used. If I can be given enough resources to get the items, I'm sure I can do it"."And how long do you need to need to get these items?" Lincoln asked."Um... Let's say a day or two. I should be done by then". He answered and a few seconds of silence passed."Okay, then" the King spoke up."My guards would accompany you to get whatever you need. And by the time you're done, you'll be brought over to the palace to begin the proc

Roseline gasped and touched her cheek which the princess had slapped.Whaat?? She slapped her!Even the maid beside her was surprised because the action wasn't called for."Next time, you watch where you're going". Cara stated spitefully and tried walking away."Was that really neccesary?" Roseline asked and Cara stopped walking."Are you talking to me?" She scoffed. "Do you want me to pull your hair?"She suddenly gripped her hair and pulled it hard."Let me go!!" Roseline winced and tried freeing herself from her grasp, but it wasn't working out.Who the hell is this woman??"Cara!" They heard a voice and Cara let go of her hair immediately.It was the King!"My King!" She called and bowed immediately and Roseline also turned to look at Lincoln.Hold on; could it be possible he'd felt the slap as well??"Roseline thought.Lincoln looked so angry as he marched towards them with his guard

Martha walked quietly to the room, her mind still reflecting at what had happened to Princess Cara.But why did she had to slap Roseline, huh? It was obvious the King had known she slapped her because he'd felt the pains as well. Oh geez! That was so pathetic for someone like her.Well, Cara was too rude and she knew it. The lady has always been nasty, proud and possessive and it was quite unfortunate it had landed her into trouble.*She got to her room and found Sally playing with her hair brush."Oh! Finally, you're back" she rolled her eyes as she stood up from the chair and went to sit on the bed instead. "Where have you been anyway? And I heard your brother sent Princess Cara away. Is that true?""How rumours spread" Martha shook her head and also sat on the bed and Sally chuckled."You should know by now, Martha, that badnews spreads faster than goodnews. Anyway, is i

Lincoln's hands grew weak immediately.Whaat??? Sally?? Martha's friend??His brows arched as he looked at the man who was still panting heavily."You liar" he growled. "You're trying to blame someone else for your own mistakes?? Tell me the truth or I'll kill you?!!""It is the truth!" The man yelled in fear just as the King lifted the sword again.He couldn't take it anymore. Never."You can ask your sister" he continued, his eyes nearly bulging out. "When you were still sick and she'd discovered the healer could be of help, who was the first and only person she told?? It was her friend. Apart from both of you, who else knew about the secret of the bond? It was her friend! Apart from both of you, who else knew about the boy - Aiken? It was her friend! Sally had always been the third party in everything! You just never noticed!"Lincoln was finding it so hard to believe; the words were too heavy for him.Although, he wasn'

"Martha!" Roseline called excitedly as she lifted her head from the bed."You're awake".Martha went quiet as she tried to recollect her environment.She was in her room, on her bed. But the last she could remember...she was at the stream."Where's she?" Her voice was almost a whisper and Roseline had a feeling she was talking about Sally.A pathetic feeling crept into her heart."She escaped": she replied her. "The guards couldn't get her'.Martha's lids were getting closed again."Sally..." She muttered the name and a tear came rolling down her cheek."Sally...Sally betrayed me. She...she left me to drown".Roseline felt so bad for her, knowing a lady she knew as her friend and told all her secrets to was the same person that betrayed her.Although, she's never had any friend before since she was locked up her entire life. But her nanny Hapitha was someone she considered as a friend

Roseline wanted to believe she didn't hear the King correctly because it couldn't be true. Like...no way.She'd be staying in his room??? Whaat???"I'll get the maids to bring your things over in a short time" he further said, making her confirm his words."That way, I'm sure no harm would come to you".Roseline's jaws dropped."B.. But, is that really neccesary?" She asked.She couldn't believe she'd be sharing the room with the King! Like... sleeping in the King's chambers!! What if his brides gets upset??"Of course, it's neccesary, Roseline - for both of us. And at least, it's only going to be for the meantime until Aiken's back with the solution", he said and she forced herself to nod.It's only going to be for the meantime, Roseline - she thought. Just a day or two and everything will be back to normal."Come with me" Lincoln sai

"Why do you have so many enemies?" She asked and Lincoln sighed and looked at her."Well..." He began. "I am a King, Roseline - a powerful King that is envied by everyone. I have the personalities that any other man would want to posses. And since they can't be me, they only have to be my enemies".Roseline listened attentively, chewing on his words."A great man will always have enemies, it's his ability to fight them off that matters. And I guess that's the reason a lot of people's been trying to kill you - because they want to get to me. But on thing is for sure - they can only try but won't succeed".Roseline was flabbergasted. The King was speaking with so much experience and maturity like a great teacher.*it's his ability to fight them off that matters" the words replayed in her head.She really needed to learn how to fight."Th
