How would someone explain the feeling of guilt? Is it that something heavy is crushing your chest? Or you feel uncomfortable in your skin, so much so that you cannot sit still, think about the situation and not feel overwhelmed when you realized what your actions had caused? In Prince Chandler's case it was the second one. ‘Were people really given the liberty to rape others because of the law he had passed because the Queen's mother wanted him to?’Chandler paced the length of his room, feeling mightily uncomfortable in his skin. No Penn must have been wrong. The lad was just drunk and saying things. There was no way his edits would have caused those things. After managing to convince himself of those lies, he could finally feel something other than guilt. Rage, hot and blazing. ‘How dare Penn try to blame other actions on him when he did no wrong?’ He needed to talk to Penn, apparently, his weird fascination with the boy le

Penn found Stanley and Rima in the Orchard that was behind the compound. Stanley turned to see who was approaching and when he saw it was Penn his eyes narrowed. “I am sorry?” Penn started uncertainly, unsure of how she would be received, Dinos didn’t have his way with her then but Stanley was helpless in the hands of his captors for more than a day. “You don’t get to throw that incident back in my face. Nobody has the right to, no one! Especially you.” Stanley Stated as Penn cringed and her eyes grew wet. The thought she has been trying to block out for six months slammed into her head with the force of a sledge hammer. ‘It was all my fault’“I am sorry.” Penn's voice was full with remorse this time. “What are you sorry about?” Stanley asked. “The fact that you just threw that incident back in my face or the fact that you are responsible for it.”Penn stumbled back at Stanley’s word like he had physically punched him.

Chandler slept horribly that night, he had thought that maybe a night with a lady would remove Penn and his nasty words from his head but it didn’t work that way. He felt even more burdened and he felt like Penn's words were true, he was being superficial and whether he likes it or not, his actions just proved Penn right. ”Your highness.” A sleepy voice sounded beside him as a creamy hand appeared on his chest, softly caressing it but Chandler didn’t want to feel even bigger guilt because every action of his since last two nights had just kept stacking the guilt. “Thank you for your time Janise but you are no longer needed.” Chandler mumbled as he got up from the bed and went around getting dressed. “So will I be getting an invitation for later? And my name is Cherise but you were very close my prince.” Cherise looked at the prince with coy eyes. The prince shuddered at the thought of actually being hers. “No Cherise, our liaison e

“What?” Vallas asked, his voice had lost all trace of laughter in it. “Crown Prince Chandler.” Penn repeated. “It can’t be.” Vallas said in confusion. “You hate him.” “I know! I do hate it.” Penn spat out as fire seemed to flare up in her eyes. “Ah.” Vallas relaxed back in his seat. “What?” Penn asked. “You really like him” Vallas corrected. “You just mentioned that I hate him and now I like him, how does any of what you are saying make sense?” Penn rubbed her head which was banging furiously. “You hate him because of the way he can get under your nerves and make you angry with everything he does even when it does not warrant your vexation. You do make it look like you have a feud with him.” “Whose side are you on?” Penn asked with a glare as Vallas smiled. “Your side, always your side, it doesn’t matter what side you are on or if I support what you believe but

Penn's look of astonishment slowly faded and was replaced with anger.“Is this a joke to you?” Penn asked. “No, I…” Chandler startled at Penn attack couldn’t even find words to help defend himself. “You cannot make an absurd offer like that and expect me to take it and all will be well between us. It never works that way.” Penn got into Chandler's face which was hard for her to do because of height difference but she managed to do it standing on her toes and Chandler didn’t comment on it not when he could see the flames of fury in Penn's eyes. What even made him give that offer to someone like Penn, his mind couldn’t even fathom the reason behind it. Was he that lonely for real attention and friendship that he was ready to stake spending a month plus in close contact with someone who hates his guts?“I am not hoping to buy your forgiveness, I was hoping that you will spend some time with me to give you a change of view about

“You are not going, are you?” The Prince sighed when he saw Penn without a load or any possession with her. “No, I am not. What gave you the idea that I will say yes?” Penn rolled her eyes.The prince felt angrier than he had ever been. This annoying little nobody thought he was so special and amazing to have a prince want his company and he had the power to refuse the prince. “Nothing, in fact I am glad that you said no. you complain so much about me when if you are in my shoes, you will not be half as good as I am when it comes to implementing edicts and laws which my people need.” “And pray tell me.” Penn moved close to the prince with mock anticipation on her face. She knew better than to goad him but every time the prince's mouth opens, he manages to make a blunder that makes her want to kill him. He normally did that unknowingly before but she knew that the prince was well aware this time. He was being annoying on purpose. “I would not b

“What were you thinking, saying those words to the Prince? You have officially lost it.” Rima stressed about as Stanley and one other male carried Penn to her room and dropped her on her bed, the person left while Stanley and Rima remained behind. “I am not that heavy for you to drag me that way.” Penn complains, a smile still on her face and her eyes burned with a fire that made Stanley and Rima think if they should start applying restraints on their friend who was looking more like Lord Vallas does during a killing spree.At least lord Vallas had an excuse to have that look in his eyes, they all knew to expect the unexpected from the man but Penn was another scenario. He was the one who normally kept a level head and this Penn was very far from that one. “Oh, stop looking at me like I have gone crazy, I can assure you that I am very much in control of my wits.” Penn adds as Rima and Stanley still looked unc

“I cannot believe that you wanted to infiltrate the castle today, you do have a death wish.” Rima hissed harshly at Penn who rolled her eyes. “Well you got us to spend our time watching the palace instead so you win.” Penn mumbled back to Rima. “If I won, I would be in my room right now, blissfully hiding away from accounts books.” Rima shot back. “Children.” Stanley cuts into their quarrel before they would take it to a new dimension. “Do you not understand the term of undercover or spying or you are trying to get us discovered and killed on purpose?” Stanley questions, if they were not in a tight position, he would have not left them with his sideways glance, he would be giving them one of his infamous death glares that he was known for. Penn rolled his eyes at Stanley back but kept her quiet as Rima hits her then proceeded to ignore that Penn like she wasn’t

“What?” Rima and Stanley said as Penn raised an eyebrow at Vallas. Vallas sighed as he answered all their question, including Penn nonvocal one. “Yes, what he says is true.” “Everybody starts at the resistance from the ground up.” Stanley stated, still confused at what was happening. It was the unspoken rule, unspoken but still a rule. Penn had to prove his way up, they all did even though they were loyal to the task and showed that from the onset. Yes they rose up the ranks faster than others but it did not change the fact that they started from nothing. “Not Curtis, he does not.” Denzel said, puffing out his chest in pride. “What makes him so special not to?” Rima spat out, her words and eyes spitting out barbs. “Because he is not a girl for one.” Denzel replied as Rima let out a little growl and moved towards him but Stanley quickly interc

Rima banged on Curtis's door the next morning. “Five more minutes.” Curtis called out.“Of course.” Rima nodded even though Curtis could not see her. In five minutes' time Curtis jumped from his wet bed that was dried a few second ago before Rima upturn the pail of water in her hand. “What the hell?” Curtis shouted. “Potty mouth, remember?” Rima admonished as Curtis's mouth snapped closed. “Good, come to the kitchen to have your late breakfast and when you are done with that you will start a list of your chores.”“Chores?” Curtis asked as Rima smiled innocently. “Yes chores, everybody has them as long as you live here. You have thirty minutes to finish eating and take care of drying your room.” Rima added as she walked out, smiling as Curtis curses under his breath behind her. ****“Yo
