ADRIAN"Greetings, my king." King? His king? I wasn't their king! I had finally accepted it. Veronica has successfully achieved for what she has aimed. My sanity, peace, strength and happiness. I was hunched over my study table, my hands gripped the edges so tight my knuckles were white. Honestly, Gregory came at the wrong time. His voice and choice of words seemed to infuriate me more. I growled loudly, the voice coming from deep within me. I placed my hands on the table and swiped the contents on it, along with the tumbler filled with the vile orange liquid . It shattered on the floor, the contents splashing everywhere, the colour staining the tiles instantly. I scoffed. This is what she wants me to ingest! How perfect. The papers flew in the air before it scattered everywhere around my study. I watched the papers dance in the air before it kissed the wet ground, the colour slowly permeating the white papers. I was still angry. How dare she? Was this how my life was to become? Me

ARIAIt was nightfall, the sky was almost at its darkest. Ferris had gone to a gathering with her friends. She wanted to have fun and also use the opportunity to find out what she could about our pressing matters. Gregory had a night duty at the palace. It was only I, alone at home, in the cottage. I had eaten in the darkness. I widened my vision and was able to see my surroundings. I had a bath and dressed for bed. It was only a dull ache now. I sighed out as I stared at my naked self in front of the mirror. My once upon a time flawless body was decorated with two scars now. All caused by an arrow of Veronica's. Just as I snuggled in the warm comforters, I had a slight noise by the main door. It was too early for Ferris to return so what was happening? Or perhaps she forgot something? I waited, with my eyes staring at the roof for Ferris intrusion but it never came. It wasn't Ferris. Ferris would have used her key and gotten access to the house. Same went for Gregory. So who was a

ADRIAN. She was snoring so loudly. Yes. Tis good that she's asleep. The seeds Ferris had provided indeed worked. At first I had doubted if Ferris knew what she was doing. I scoffed at the pumpkin skin she had grinded into fine pieces. She assured me it had no peculiar taste and it dissolved well with other liquids. And true to her words, Veronica had gulped down her wine without so much as a wince. She suspected nothing and now, the witch of the wild west was asleep. I eased off the bed and walked out of the chambers. The guard at the door looked at me questioningly. I shrugged it off and acted natural. "My queen is asleep. Guard here with your life. I have urgent matters to attend to in the study." The guard looked pleased. The dull head loved how I spoke about Veronica. He fell for it. They all thought the portion was in my veins. Bloody fools. I walked away freely and entered by study. Gregory was already there waiting for me. I bolted the study door quietly after giving the att

ADRIAN"Heard about the feast. Why didn't I hear about it much sooner, from you?" I had just gotten dressed immediately after waking up. Didn't have time for a bath and most importantly, I was avoiding Veronica like she was the plague herself. If I was to take a bath, she would have woken up and gotten naked with me in the tub. That, I didn't want to happen. I also didn't want her to suspect anything about me, with how I have been acting so it was better to do it this way. I turned towards her with a smile. The gown had eased down from her chest, exposing her breasts. Not again. I allowed my eyes to linger on it, not because I wanted to see her very small ugly breasts which I couldn't help but to compare with Aria's, but because I wanted Veronica to think I desired her a little bit. She smiled. My plan was working. She bent her head low, her hair coming over her breasts before she looked up. "I see your eyes know what beauty is." She giggled as she stopped a little too close to me.

ADRIAN"Why...why am I seeing a lot of foreign faces?" I tried to sound as unbothered as possible. The training for the position of the puppet King had started this morning. I had been so excited I would finally see their treacherous faces. I needed to see how many loyal men she had but now, I was shocked to my bones as I stood on the balcony to the western wing with Veronica. The guards, even Gregory was amongst them. He sat by the hay and kept to himself as he played with his word. Gregory was definitely not Veronica's loyalist. Veronica hummed as she bent her head sideways with closed eyes, so the wind could brush through her curls and light purple gown, a bright smile on her face. "Oh Adrian. It will be good. I can feel it in my bones." Truth was I felt like smashing her head on the rail in front of me. She avoided my question. I gritted my teeth and begged myself for patience. Veronica was toying with me and the most annoying part, she was deeply enjoying it. She couldn't kno
