"Vivian!" Hazel called, rushing into Vivian's room. She could feel her heart beating loudly against her ribcage and she could feel her fear slowly take control of her mind. She stood in the middle of Vivian's room, staring at the empty room with a confused expression on her face. She could have sworn she left Vivian in her room and watched her go to sleep. So where was she now? Where the hell was she?! "She isn't here," Ophelia muttered softly, scared. She felt like something was going to take place soon but what that was, was something she had no idea of. "I..." "What's going on?" Vivian asked in a weak voice, staring at the people in her room. Her eyes lingered on both Ophelia and Zara for a while, she had been waiting for them and they finally arrived. "Vivian!" Hazel yelled happily, running towards Vivian and pulling her into a hug. For a second there she was scared. She was scared that she had lost Vivian. For a second there, she felt like she had lost a part of her. She

Styx walked through the silent corridor with no idea of where he was heading to. He had returned back to the palace with Karl and at that particular moment he was lost.Frederick's words kept playing on his mind and he still wasn't able to understand the words he said to him. He kept walking and finally reached the end of the corridor where his painting with Ama was placed. He stood in front of the painting, admiring the picture and he felt a kind of pain in his heart.He could remember vividly how happy she was when they were both taking the painting. She was happy and the emotions in her eyes...was something he would never be able to forget. Styx reached out his hand towards the painting, caressing it. How would it have been, if Ama wasn't thirsty for power? Would she still be with him now and would they have been happy with their little child?Styx was feeling different kinds of emotions, those that he himself found difficult to explain. Even though the child wasn't his, he had

15 years ago"Where are you, Ama!" Lyla, Ama's sister, barged into Ama's room.Ama sat up, rubbing her sleepy eyes. She still felt so sleepy but it seems she won't be having any sleep with her sister around. "I've been searching for you!" Lyla yelled dramatically, jumping on Ama's bed."As you can see, I was in my room all along," she responded, stopping herself from rolling her eyes."I can see that and where did you disappear to yesterday. You left me all alone in the palace and I was searching for you, only to find out you came back home without me!" She snapped, glaring at her sister. She couldn't believe she took her to the palace only to leave her there."Did I?" Ama said almost in a whisper but loud enough for Lyla to hear. Her lips curved into a smile, thinking about what happened the other day with a man she had grown to have feelings for. She sure as hell knows that she should feel nothing but shame for losing her virginity to a stranger who wasn't her husband. But what sho

"I did clinged onto him. I slept with him and lost my virginity after all?" Ama blat​tered, covering her mouth in shock. Lyla's eyes widened in shock, staring at her younger sister; "You did what?!" "It was...""Oh my!" She stood up, walking around Ama's room to digest everything she just heard. She has been in love with Raphael for years and she hasn't dared to go far other than hugging and holding each other's hand. There were indeed times her desires took over and she was sure Raphael too almost gave in to his desires but they had always done a good job in ignoring their desires. She was a woman after all and if she dares to lose her virginity before marriage and people find out then she was certain she won't be spared and she would be the talk of the entire town. But her sister...she went ahead and...she did that without thinking of the circumstances?!"I couldn't control my desires!" "I know, Ama and that's the only reason I'm not bouncing on you right now or pulling your ear,

"And you have no right to stop me from taking my bride," Styx retorted. This woman was truly getting on his nerves and there was something about her that he found extremely strange. There were so many strange things about her, a kind of strange aura exuding from her.Penelope was fuming with anger and she was doing everything in her power not to explode. She was doing a good job holding her anger cause if she did..."You have overstayed your stay here, King Styx," she smiled, a faux smile. Her hand was itching to do something but to stop herself, she fisted her knuckles, biting her lips."Oh really?" Styx smiled, turning his head slightly towards Theo who hasn't said a single word ever since they arrived here. Frustrated, he mind linked with Theo, glaring at him.'You won't interfere!''Why should I?!''Theo?!''You are the Alpha and she would be your Luna, so fight for her!' Theo smiled, breaking the mind link and removed his eyes from Styx. He wouldn't lie, he was enjoying every bit
