Lahat ng Kabanata ng Stranger To King : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Once I was done with Hazel, we returned to Felix, who awaited my return. “Sorry to keep you waiting, my lord. I had to make sure I was presentable for you.” I said as I bowed. He chuckled and stated he was a patient guy. Good because I like to take my time. We headed for the garden for some peace.This is the last stop for my date with Felix. As we strolled along, my servants were watching closely, especially Hamon. Why are they always getting suspicious of everyone? We always stopped by an old apple tree with a swing.“Are you strong, my lord? If so, can you give me a push?” I demanded. He didn’t hesitate for a second as he gently pushed me.“What are you planning to do when queen, your highness?” I couldn’t see his face, but the tone sounded severe.Just like I told Matthew, I plan to change for the better. “I want to expand the kingdom to different parts of Africa. But I have to start small, so I am already in the process of combining with Pervia. Yuli and I are making arrangements

Everyone had a fun dinner. Anisel made my parents smile for a long time. After the delicious meal, I wanted to walk before my date with Anisel was over. I have to take every advantage I can. The more alone time with him, the more I get to know him.My parents initially hesitated because it was getting dark, but they agreed as long as my servants were with me. I took Anisel's hand as we dashed out of the back door. When we got outside, his face was completely red. "Umm, princess... your hand. You can let go now." He said nervously.I quickly snatched my hand away when I realized it. I covered my face and walked ahead; Anisel joined my side with red on his cheeks. "Are you nervous?" I asked him as I swiped my face.“About what? The ball?? Not at all.”“What if you don't get picked??” I said. He stopped me in my tracks and glanced my way. The look gave me chills as he asked if I wanted him to get picked. Was he teasing me?? Out of nowhere, he steps closer to where our noses touch. He ask

~ Mia ~The following day a knock woke me up from my well-deserved sleep. So, I covered my head and turned around until the door creaked. "Good morning, my lady. It is time to get up as you need to get ready for the ball.” He said with a smile. Hamon came in right after him. They both were excited today.As for me, I wasn't. This day needs to skip forward where I become queen. I didn't want to meet my future partner. I know my mom will pick the worst possible noble, like Felix. Hamon walked toward my bed and snatched the covers.“Today is not the day to be laying around, your majesty. We need to get things ready before the ball. Like your gown, for example. I heard it is beautiful, just like you.”“Do you really need me to get it? I want to sleep more so I can have energy for the ball. Where I give up my freedom.” I pulled my covers back. They know everything will change at this moment. I don’t want to do this. Suddenly, another knock came at the door.“Don’t think about it that way,”

Yes!!! I am so happy they were chosen, but does it have to be them? How am I supposed to choose?? Two handsome guys standing in front of me with two different souls. They stood back up and looked at me with loving eyes. I couldn’t breathe; I needed to compose myself quickly. So, I stood up from the throne.“You guys will show me your strength and loyalty as I evaluate your overall personality. In the next couple of weeks, we will see who will become victorious to be king.”Everyone cheered as they raised their glasses up high. The list got small enough that I didn't want to choose this time. The night went perfectly. We all had a good time.The following day I got woken up by sunlight in my eyes. Why did I pick this room again? I yawned while opening my eyes to see Hamon fixing the curtains.“Good morning, my lady. How did you sleep?” He walks over to the bed, pulling off the covers with ease. Come on; I can't rest for a second. I don't have a chance as my schedule has been filled up f

I followed Hamon and Mikhal to the dining hall and noticed the boys were right behind me. I thought I was eating alone since Jabrel wanted to rest. But I didn't mind the company. The boys joined me on the other side of the table face to face. “Do I smell or something?? Why are you so far away, my lords?” I asked them. 
They looked at each other and then switched seats. Anisel was on my left, while Matthew was on the right. “So, my lady. Is there any reason why you are in Hazel’s humble abode?” He asked. 
“Something happened at the central market. Due to that, Jabrel and I will be here until that person is captured. Hope that is okay with you?” 
Anisel explained this wasn’t his house, so he didn’t care if I was there. He turned to Matthew to ask the same question. “I was helping Mia with something and stayed with her for comfort.”
Anisel mumbled under his breath and gave him a stare. While that was happening, the servants finally passed out the plates, and within four minutes,
