Alicia's pov
"What I'm trying to say is, princess Anna is a Healer" I blurted.
His face remained facial and he couldn't say a word.
"Her being a healer does not erase the fact of the cruel thing you've done to Simone" He spoke after a short silence.
"Does that mean you're not going to punish her too?" I asked alarmed.
He clenched his fist and faced his guard.
"30 strokes of cane. I want to see her skin turn red" He ordered and walked out of the room.
What?!
No....
"King Lee!!! This is not fair!..." I screamed with gritted teeth.
The guards grabbed me up roughly from the floor and I continued to resist.
This is wickedness...
Dawn's pov
I was extremely glad that the wedding tutorial was completely over and I was asked to ret
King Lee's pov👑I drove along the road amidst darkness and night fog.I decided to leave the castle without anyone knowing. I didn't need escorts to where i was heading.I stepped on the brakes and the car came to a screech stop.I opened the door and walked out. The house looked old but beautiful.I always come here with my father whenever he was confused about something.This place proved to be a comfort zone to any man that is pushed to the edge of breaking down.But I'm not about to break down.My reason to be here is entirely different.I approached the house and opened the door immediately.The old woman was sitting on the floor - eating from a plate.She looked up startled."Lee..." She whispered as her eyes dimmed.**I was si
Dawn's pov👑I closed the windows pondering about why King Lee placed my hand on his wound.Was he expecting something to happen?I hope he hasn't found out about my powers. That's impossible.Its not written on my face that I'm a healer.I was done shutting the windows and turned around. I caught him getting on his bed."Is there anything else you need, your Majesty?" I asked walking going towards him."No, you can go now" He ordered and my eyes dropped on his hand.He had tied a bandage around his injury.This means he just called me here to close his windows.Seriously?!"Goodnight, your highness" I said with a bow before walking to the door."Hold on...I think there's one more thing" He mumbled and I froze.You got to be kidding me.I was so sleepy and craved to lie
Sir Blade's pov⚔I sat patiently in the car waiting for the assassin. I kept tapping on the steering wheel as I thought about what I was about to do.I think it's not necessary to kill Dawn.She have saved us from early death and destruction so I'm going to spare her life.But then...she'll be on her own after I'm done telling the king about everything.The car door opened and he entered and surprisingly he was wearing a mask."I don't understand sir...what are you doing in Euphoris. You drove through out the night?" He asked puzzled.I smirked."I'm a warrior. No harm can come upon me at night as long as I still have my hands" I replied.He nodded and removed his mask."So...what are your plans now?".I sighed and adjusted on the seat."I've transf
Dawn's POVI wasn't able to sleep tonight. I just sat on the bed waiting for King Lee to come back from the court.I'm not so sure of how I'm going to face him after what happened in the morning.And I also hope he's not mad at me.I stood by the window watching how lights from near and afar beautified the midnight.I know mom's going to be asleep by now. She works so hard everyday.I'll go and see her tomorrow cause I'll confess everything to the King tonight.He'd probably kick me out of the palace.I love him so much but I'm also ready to loose him if that's the price I'll pay for lying to him.Besides, he was never meant for me.Its the real princess that should be here right now - In this night dress and beside this window waiting for her husband to come home.I can't keep living someone else's life.
........Dawn's pov....."I'm so sorry, King Lee" I muffled rubbing the tears off my eyes.I got too emotional and couldn't fight back the tears that continued to surge.This is harder than I thought.He squeezed my hand softly and I sniffed."Can you stop crying?" He asked squinting his eyes and I nodded.I wiped off the tears from my cheeks."Are you going to kill me now?" I asked slowly and a hiccup followed.He cracked and patted my hair."Yes...you'll be killed but not today" He said and drew closer."But its not my fault" I said sobbing."I told you to stop crying" He said and placed his lips on mine.He su*ked on my lower lip while I smooched on his upper lip.We broke the kiss and I cried even louder."I don'
.......Dawn's pov.......He got up and dressed the royal robe he was putting on. I stared after him as he headed for the door.What is going on??I picked up the nightie and wore it slowly before removing the duvet.I climbed down from the bed and walked fraily to the bathroom.I locked the door behind me.I hope I don't use King Lee's feet soap again. I opened the drawer and saw a white leather.It reminded me of a sanitary pad.Hold on...whats today's date?OMG! I should have seen my period few days ago.Is...is something wrong with me? Why's it taking so long?? .......King Lee's pov......The guards opened the door and I ambled towards the other end of the hall.I paused and titled my head."G
Dawn's pov👑I fixed my eyes at the window watching the trees and the people that we drive pass on the way to my village.Euphoris is extremely big and King Lee keeps conquering other towns thereby increasing the population and land.I remember going through this road with that horrible man.I thought I would die the minute I saw the king. People made me believe that he was a monster and a psychopath.But he's so sweet too.We got to a hill and I was able to spot our small hut where mom and I lived.I hope she's around. King Lee👑"You're welcome again, My Lord. Please have your seat dear" The woman said walking to the table with the help of a stick.I sat on a chair and dropped my hands on the table."Do you want anything, your Majesty?" She
King Lee👑"I don't understand" I said completely puzzled."Does...this mean you didn't know about your mother's origin?" She asked and I nodded perfunctorily."Your mother was your father's childhood friend. She was the daughter of a common maid at the castle but your father became friends with her and they gradually fell in love. Your father wanted to marry her but so many forces were against them. He took a bold step decided to take an oath before the royal court that your mother will never break the rules of queenship and so...it was done. They got married and had you" She besumed.I was still yet to believe the things she just said.This is balderdash...!Mom's behavior is so perfect that other queens envied her fluency and movements.I rolled my eyes and scoffed.I don't even care.My phone vibrated and I brought
