Ginevra was so restless as she paced to and fro the corridors. Her heart was beating really fast.She'd been outside the torture room and had even heard Carlotta screaming. Goodness! It tore her apart! What the hell were they doing to her friend? Why is it so difficult for Lord Lorenzo to forgive, huh? And how did the bracelet get into her bag? Could it be a set up?She continued pacing to and fro and after a while, saw Lord Lorenzo walking out of the room.Oh! Was he done with her?She stood and watched ruefully as he left and as soon as he was out of sight, she ran towards the room."Carlotta! Carlotta!" She called, but didn't get a response.She was scared to go in, wondering if it'd be offensive or not. But thankfully, it wasn't long before the chief guard - Liam - came walking out with Carlotta lying on his shoulders.Whaat????"Carlotta!" Ginevra called in fright. Goodness! What have they done to her friend??

"Seriously Carlotta, you're too stubborn" Ginevra groused as she paced restlessly in the room, tho and fro.Carlotta was still lying on the bed, face down and still wouldn't touch the medicines.From time to time, Ginevra would run to the window to cheek if the Physician was coming already, but thankfully he wasn't."Gosh! Carlotta, don't be so stubborn. Why wouldn't you just take this medications, huh, and prevent further troubles? What if the physician really arrives with Lord Lorenzo?" She queried.She couldn't believe she was so worried for her friend, like she was actually the one lying on the partial sick bed."I don't care if he comes with his warriors, Ginevra. No matter what he does, I'm never taking those medications and that's final!" She rasped with a frown.Ginevra shook her head and continued pacing around, then decided to check the window again and this time around, she let out a loud gasp."Carlotta! He's coming!!" She

*4 DAYS LATER*"Emilia, are you sure about this? It sounds ridiculous to me" King Ephraim said as he walked into his chambers with his daughter behind him - whining like a child.“Yes, father. please. I’m very sure. I really need this” princess Emilia's groused, her face crumbling up.“But why would you make such a request in the first place, huh? Why would you want to be under someone as possessive as Lord Lorenzo?” King Ephraim asked, stopping and turning to spare her a glance.“I…. I just want to. Please father, don’t say no. This would really mean a lot to me” Emilia clasped her palms together and said with pleading eyes.Oh…! She really needed this man to agree.King Ephraim didn’t say a word as he took off his Royal robe and gold belt as well. And as he did, Emilia could only stand and watch in anticipation..“You can leave, Sharon. I&rsquo

Suspense ran through the room immediately as Lorenzo stared silently at the counsels with a blank expression.The silence stretched and went on for a long time, the counsels were beginning to think they might get punished. But it was necessary."Why should it be of any concern to you?" Lorenzo finally asked and it was of great relief to the men that he finally said something."My Lord" the chief council began. "No disrespect, but you should know getting an heir is as important as ruling this community. And that's the reason we'd gotten a third wife for you. You need an heir, My Lord. And for the fact you haven't been intimate with your new wife is of great concern to us. Is there a problem with her? That's the reason we're here, My Lord, to help with your problems. So, if there is one, you should please, let us know".Silence descended again as it seemed like the chief counsel had spoken the minds of the rest of the people of the members and now, the ball

The ride to the palace was very long and when they finally arrived, Carlotta couldn't help but feel so relieved. Her waist was beginning to hurt already.Peeping from the window, she admired the beauty of the palace which was looking well decorated and arranged, guards and maids moving about with trays and the rest. The place looked really busy, and cheerful.Lorenzo's carriage rode in and parked at a suitable location, and immediately, his guards came around and led him as he walked out of the carriage with Carlotta.Their heads of the guards were bowed, Liam standing in front of him while another guard stood beside Carlotta and in that manner, they started walking towards the party together."Lord Lorenzo!" A man suddenly called, rushing towards them with some guards behind him."You're here! I'm so glad you made it"Lorenzo stopped walking as the man got to where he was and so did Carlotta and the guards."Minister Philip" Lorenzo
