Regan's POVMy blood boiled as Maya emerged. Words spread fast. I wondered how she got to know that I had invited Ashley.Shamelessly, she marched towards her and I was ready to intercept her moves. The look on Ashley's face was enough to move me to action. She looked so scared like she could take off at any time.This had happened before when I used Maya to torture her. That wasn't my intention now and I didn't want to give Ashley the wrong impression.She cringed as Maya approached. But then something occurred to me, this was a soldier and the leader of a Sect. I was aware of her capabilities. Seeing her cringe before a pregnant woman looked so unbelievable that I wanted to watch how things would end.I wanted to see the extent of her restraint. So l folded my arms across my chest and did nothing.Maya walked past me with the speed of light and struck Ashley hard on the face.Maya wasn't a joke either. She isn't a typical housewife. She was the daughter of the minister of war so she

Ashley's POV Shawn was already waiting on his horse. I climbed up and we galloped out of the meeting site. Shawn seemed to be in good spirits, he made the horse go slowly as soon as we were away from the cave. "The palace must be a place of comfort," he said, his warm and moist breath grazing the nape of my neck. "Well… it's luxurious, but trust me it comes with its own problems," I responded. "Is that why your face is badly wounded?" My eyes widened, I thought I had concealed it well. Well, not for someone like Shawn. "Maya, Prince Regan's wife… she is something else," "You should teach her a lesson…" "Really? Alright… if she messes with me again, I will remember your advice," I said and both of us chuckled. "Be careful, the palace is dangerous, especially with your double identity. I heard the king and the Dowager are still investigating the theft… It is good if you stop coming for meetings for now. You should let things quiet down… Well that doesn't mean I won't still be

Regan's POV I tossed about on the bed trying to get some sleep. My eyes were dim but I couldn't sleep. "Why do I even care? She has nothing to do with me," I muttered to myself for the umpteenth time and sat up on my bed angrily. I knew the Dowager. She had caught Ashley, there are no two ways to it. She even let the other girl live. She summoned Ashley because she wanted to confirm the semblance with the drawing. The more I looked at it, the more I wanted to back out. As a matter of fact, a part of me still thought that Ashley did it to implicate me to get her revenge. But now that I knew that she was the leader of a rebel group, I understood her better. Apart from implicating me, she did it to stock up the group's armory. It could be the case of using a stone to kill two birds. 'Ashley is in danger.' the voice kept ringing in my head and I shut my eyes trying to forget about it all. But why did the truth have to come out when I just invited her to live with me? I was startin

Ashley's POV Becca? What the heck is going on? Did the Prince summoned her already? For what? My eyes widened as I realized the Prince's intentions. "My Prince… please, have mercy," I fell on my knees pleading profusely. "Don't get involved," he gritted and I couldn't look into his eyes. "My Prince, it's time for brunch," a maid announced. "I will be at the dining room soon, bring my wheelchair," he commanded, ignoring me. Soon a guard wheeled his chair in and helped him to sit in. "You can go," he dismissed the guard and said coldly. "Are you going to have brunch or not? Wheel me down to the dining room." With my hands shaking on the handle, I pushed Regan silently out of the bedroom. We passed through the courtyard as we proceeded towards the dining room. Becca was kneeling in the courtyard. She didn't see me as her back was turned against me. Her hands were tied behind her and she was made to look director at the sun. Guards stood beside her with horse whips in their hands

Regan's POV I waited, and thought that Ashley would come to find me, but it was just a wish. She didn't show up. She wasn't wounded, she was only knocked out, she should have regained consciousness and shown up by now.This raised more questions in my heart about her involvement with Asher.After waiting for a few hours, I couldn't wait anymore. I grabbed my crutches, leapt out of my wheelchair and made my way out.Seeing the anger in my face, two guards followed me from behind as I made my way out of my chambers.As I was just entering Asher's chambers, I saw Asher and Ashely walking side by side. They were strolling deeper into Asher's channel and I was sure that he wasn't leasing her to me.They walked comfortably, like they were waiting for this moment to come. Anger boiled inside of me and my blood became hot."Ashley!" I yelled and Ashley turned around instantly.I saw the fear written in her eyes. She looked like she was caught in a wrongful act. This quipped my interest in t
