Chapter 141. Our Love Conquered 19

I jolted upright on the bed, my heart hammering against my ribs like a trapped bird. Fear, cold, and sharp pain flooded my veins, freezing me mid-motion. My hunger was forgotten, replaced by a churning nausea."Had the king sent him? Was this it? Was I summoned already?"Slowly, forcing muscles that felt like stone to answer, I turned my head towards the doorway. "Yes, Knight," I answered and walked to the door. When I opened it, I maintained an unreadable face and studied his countenance. He wasn't wearing full armor, just the dark tunic and trousers of the prince's personal guard, but the authority he radiated was potent."Knight," I managed to say, my voice a dry rasp. My stomach clenched, empty and sour. The hunger strike suddenly felt like a ridiculous, childish defiance in the face of this. "Good evening, Knight. Is ... is the Prince ...?" I couldn't finish the question. "He is resting," Philip said, his voice low and measured. Undoubtedly, he noticed my puffy eyes, b

Julius' POV Death wasn’t a stranger to me. I’d seen its shadow fall on others. Tonight, it felt different, I may see it fall on me. The glint of the prince’s sword pinned me where I stood, cold terror freezing my gaze to the floor. Hot, shameful tears blurred the tiles beneath my boots - for every offense I’d stacked like kindling for this pyre. Would it end like this? Just… snuffed out? The thought of not seeing Hendrick’s face, my family’s laughter - gone forever, tore a silent sob from my throat. Confess. The word was a desperate lifeline. "Maybe mercy still existed. Maybe my honesty would buy a sliver of leniency," I said, and forced my head up.He wasn't looking at me. He was leaning against the windowsill, silhouetted against the night, shoulders slumped. A sudden, sharp pang of pity cut through my own fear. His plight, being shackled to a loveless match, felt like a violation. A crime against his very soul. My own resolve hardened like ice in my veins. "I will not acce

A choked sob threatened to escape my throat, but I swallowed it down, pressing my forehead harder against the cool stone. "He is here, Julius is here," I told myself and turned. He shifted his head and faced me, his lips closing the space between my shoulder blades. We were both eager and engaged in a kiss that sent shivers down my exhausted frame. "Hold on, Hendrick," the dream-Julius murmured, his voice a low vibration against my skin. "Just hold on." The words, though born of my own need, were a lifeline, not minding whether the janitor was still there or not. I was desperate and could not obey his order. I bit his lips with my eyes filled with love. Before he could complain, I covered his lips with my mouth and kissed her deeply. This time, he didn't resist but surrendered to the dream, to the weight of my love. He slipped his hand into my shirt, pressed my nipple, and sent me to cloud nine. I continued to kiss the one who mattered a lot to me."I love you so much, Julius.

So, we resumed our vigil, the waiting now a different kind of torment.Not long after, the King arrived, trailed by his own Knight, Lindsey. His Majesty’s face was a roadmap of worry - eyes puffy, shadowed, betraying a sleepless night as fraught as ours. "Good morning, Your Highness," we chorused, bowing low.His gaze swept over us, sharp, searching. He was looking for answers in our faces - news of the prince, or the janitor. Finding only guarded exhaustion, confusion clouded his face. We shifted our focus, briefly meeting Lindsey’s eyes; he seemed adrift, unaware of the cliff we stood on. What did the King tell him? I wondered. It didn’t matter. He needed to act. The King turned towards the prince’s door, but it was Lindsey who spoke, his voice carefully neutral. "Is the prince not awake yet?""Not yet, Knight," the Captain confirmed.Lindsey glanced back at the King, who offered no instruction, only that heavy silence. The king moved then, pulling the heavy key from his belt

Hendrick's POV After listening to Julius' story of great sacrifice, he asked me, "How will I face the girls? They hate me," his voice laced with fear. I perceived that he was being bullied and assured him, "You are not returning there. We are getting married at once."His eyes flickered and he asked anxiously, "Will the king permit it?"I smiled softly, pulled his nose, and asked him, "Will you let go of me for any of the janitors?"As though he was losing me already, he held me tightly and answered quickly, "No. Don't think of it, please.""Then, stand by me," I requested and explained further, "It won't be easy, but we will overcome."He nodded in agreement and kissed my lips. I complied but her next question was a bombshell. "How will you placate the janitors after sleeping with them?"Instead of getting angry with her, I kissed his forehead and whispered to him, "I will answer your question after this."He was surprised but I pleasured him beyond his imagination. "I love yo

Chapter 146. Our Love Conquered 24

The King's POV After I left the prince’s chamber, I returned to my chamber to meet my worried queen. I don't know what to expect after unlocking the door and leaving instructions 'Inform me immediately when he emerges for breakfast'.My wife got up quickly from the bed, read my countenance to ascertain whether he killed the janitor out of anger despite assuring her that he can't do that - he has control over his anger."What happened?"Her voice was tight with dread.I don't know what she wished to hear - whether he accepted or killed her. A proof of the violence she feared? "I don't know," I admitted, sinking onto the edge of the bed. The weight of the unknown pressed down on me.She sensed the turmoil, leaning into me, seeking and offering comfort she wasn't sure I deserved. "What did you do then?""I unlocked the door. And waited. For any sound, any sign from either of them."A flicker of morbid hope lit her eyes and she asked, "Did she run out? Did she shout?""I said I don't

Chapter 147. Our Love Conquered 25

Julius yelped, a startled, breathless sound, trying to squirm away while attempting to maintain a semblance of dignity. His laughter, warm and real, mingled with mine in the cool morning air. Seeing him momentarily forget his worry, his guard down, his eyes crinkling with mirth, was its own kind of victory. It was a reminder of the 'us' that existed beneath the weight of titles and expectations - an us that felt newly precious now that the future seemed less daunting.We were consumed by our shared laughter while I was still holding his hand. To make him laugh even more, I tickled his ribs. He twisted his body and laughed aloud. I heard a knock on my door and looked at it. The visitor was in a haste, before I could respond, the door opened and revealed my dad.Nevertheless, Julius was carried away and oblivious of the open soundproof door. "You're too sweet, Hendrick," he said between laughter, and it could be heard by everyone.I held him tighter. Now, my dad and mom walked and I gr

(Hello, Wilson. Congratulations on your marriage and the arrival of your baby. It baffles me that you didn’t want us to share your joy. Reuben refused to see you despite my efforts - he’d set his eyes on me, and I was not aware of it. We came to your office to inform you of our marriage, but your CSO said you were not available. We saw your GM at Westminster; he wouldn’t reveal your whereabouts. We’re truly happy you’re happy. Congratulations from us both.)After reading through the message, I sent it, dropped the phone where I got it, and braced up for Johnson's reactions. Quickly, I bolted to the toilet, splashed water on my face, returned, and dressed up. At that point, his phone rang and startled me. I took a quick peep at my phone and saw the caller. "Ha, Wilson!" My blood froze. I’d expected a dismissive text, not this. If Johnson missed the call, the fragile peace I’d fabricated would shatter. The conflict would ignite, worse than before. Now, I would be forced to search f

At that point, I heard footsteps walking down the stairs and I knew that it was Johnson. When he got to the parlor, he opened the back door and headed for the garden. I smiled within me and watched him from the translucent window walking like a child who just lost his mother. He rounded the house and walked into the parlor through the front door. Likewise, he walked upstairs to our room and walked down immediately. At that point, he was exhausted from the unplanned walkout. His last resort was the kitchen and he walked in. The chef greeted him and he responded cheerfully. He looked at me and I focused on my phone rather than looking at him.Apart from death, I am yet to see a problem that is beyond him. Instantly, he came up with a reason to send the chef away."Inform the janitor that he should set the garden. We are having lunch there."The janitor nodded and wished to move. To stop him from leaving, I intervened."The food will get burnt."The chef stopped and focused on him for h

Chapter 150. Unending Joy

My mind traveled to how we met and how she pleaded for a baby. I was touched and prayed that the baby's gender would be her desire."She wishes to know the gender of the baby. Can you check that before we leave?"He was pleased with my request and responded, "Sure."Nevertheless, he seemed to be praying for a chance to leave and got up at once."Excuse me."He walked out at once while I kept myself busy with the television. After about thirty minutes, he returned. I looked at him for the result of his test but he was smiling with a happy demeanor. "What is the gender?" I asked him inquisitively with a mild smile."Come and see for yourself," he said. I was curious to know and I got up immediately. He led the way. Not to the outpatient department but to the ward. I thought he was missing his way and called his attention. He paused and turned with a knowing glint in his eye. "Trust me, Mr. Garfield. This way."A shiver of unease, cold and sharp, pierced my usual composure. Wards we
