Chapter 151: Taming a maid

Decrease Imperial PalaceLinn placed the tray of food she had just brought in on a table in the room. She gazed ahead and saw that Jazell was seated on a swing bench located in the chamber.In her hands was a smoking hemp; she tilted it, allowing her gaze to scan through it with scrutiny as if contemplating whether or not to use it."My lady, smoking is not good for the baby."Linn says inching closer. Jazell rolls her eyes, then drops the smoking pipe on a table with a thud."I know that, Linn; you have told me a thousand times."She said with displeasure laced in her voice. Lately she had given up some of her bad habits just to make sure the baby in her womb comes out without a flaw. "It is as though my life has come to a standstill. I cannot have wine or smoke; I am losing my mind!Jazell said, rising from the bench. The sole of her foot found a foothold on the floor, and she made her way to her bed and settled onto it while rubbing her stomach gently."Have you written any l

Chapter 152: Backstabbed

Galvestone Imperial Palace. Kyron has been seated at the head of the table, watching the council members talk all morning.Neither of them seemed to have said what he had interest in, until"We should go after Decreash; the king wishes to take his revenge for the death of his daughter, Yumi, and granddaughter, Katie."Lydia suddenly said, and everywhere became silent.Kyron's gaze immediately snapped in her direction; it was as though she had read his mind."Go after them? It is said that Ragaleon has grown more powerful with each passing day; it would be foolish to invade Decreash." A man in his early forties named Faham rattled with a high-pitched voice."But if the king wants revenge, it should be made known to Ragaleon that there is a king on this earth just as powerful as he is." Lydia purred, and Kyron directed his gaze to her, and she smiled seductively. Lydia, whom Kyron had brought along with him from camp, has become a thorn in the flesh of his council members.Her wo

Chapter 153: The Fall

Lydia bit her bottom lip, then inched forward, trying not to make it obvious that between her legs was throbbing with raw pain. "Walk with me." She said, and Wimma thought she had heard wrong. "Walk with me; I have an explanation for what you have heard." "Have you lost your mind?! Wimma wanted to strangle this incompetent brat in front of her but held herself back by balling her hand into a fist.She was rather calmer than expected, but that was a good thing."I did not betray you…us…our friendship. My voice will be heard, and so will whatever I have to say if we discuss it here, so walk with me."She said, then stretched out one of her hands. Wimma gazed at it for a moment but didn't take it.Lydia lowered her hand, and it fell limply to her side. She turned around and began to make her way through the halls to a more secluded place.Lydia led the way to the tower ledge.When she thought she had heard Wimma stop walking, she would pause and then turn around, only to see her gla

Chapter 154: The Death of a queen

The wind howled in her ears, weaving through the strands of her hair as it swept across the high stone terrace.It made the leaves and branches of the trees sway in restless waves, as it circled through the trees in the meadow.Lydia seemed to remain motionless, her hands began to quiver, her breath became shaky.It was only after a few seconds later, she seemed to have realized the gravity of what she had done."I killed her…I actually.."She paused, swallowing hard, feeling the saliva drag painfully down her throat.She buckled, her legs giving way as she slowly collapsed to her knees. Her red hair clung to her face, matted by tears, and her trembling lips parted,"I have finally avenged my husband… my children!"The pitch of her voice wavered, rising sharply. She tried to force out more words, something meaningful, something whole, but they broke apart before reaching her lips.The wind tore at her hair, whipping fiery strands across her face. She tried to tuck them behind her ea

Chapter 155: A night of sorrow

Lydia's chamber glowed softly beneath the flicker of candlelight.A single arched window stood open to the night, its wooden shutters pushed aside so the wind could glide in freely.The breeze stirred the long velvet curtains, making them sway like slow-moving shadows.The room was quiet; only the restless flutter of curtains and the soft crackle of the fire from the candles could be heard.Lydia was seated alone in the center of it all, her figure outlined in a feline posture.She sat before a mirror, studying the reflection that stared back at her. At forty-two, she was a striking woman, her beauty tempered with the quiet authority of experience.A few wrinkles marked her forehead, subtle traces of time, but they did nothing to dim the sharp intelligence in her eyes. Those eyes—bright, alert, and sparkling.But those eyes… should they sparkle? "Certainly not now. Not when uncertainty gnawed at her.So she picked up a small container of kohl, a dark, powdered substance used to line

Chapter 156: The King's wish

Vandamonth Imperial Palace The door to Jarob's chamber opened, and Kora stepped in, followed by the royal physician.She gazed upon the bed Jarob laid, and there he was, numb…quiet, almost lifeless.The royal physician got to work; he made his way to the bed and glanced down at Jarob, then shook his head from side to side pitifully."He is getting worse; I fear he might not make it to the next winter season."He said, before opening a small box in his hand, he brought out a bottle of green liquid; immediately he uncorked the bottle, and a pungent smell filled the atmosphere."I have heard? The best herbalists reside in Nehoviah…." Kora was talking when he interrupted."Half of which are dead."The royal physician said with a leering look."And the other half are nothing more than wanderers in their own kingdom after Kyron brought Nehoviah to ruins. I am trying my best, your grace. Only patience and time will yield results."He added before bringing the bottle of medicine to Jarob's

Chapter 157: Vengance

Decrease Imperial PalaceIt was early in the morning, when the dew was still thick and the air was still cold.Thin threads of smoke curled from the first waking hearths, drifting lazily above the thatched rooftops. Chickens scratched softly at the damp earth, their feathers shivering in the chill, while a lone rooster announced the day with a sharp, echoing call.Along a narrow path, a little boy walked with a bucket in his hand.His bare feet padded quietly against the cool earth, leaving small prints on the dew-soaked ground. The wooden bucket swung lightly at his side, sloshing with each step as he made his way toward the village well.Suddenly, the child saw something.Something that seemed unclear at first because of the fog crawling low along the ground. He slowed, squinting through the pale haze as a faint shape took form just a few steps ahead on the path.At first it looked like nothing more than a shadow half-hidden by the mist. The bucket in his hand stopped swaying as h

Chapter 158: Crisis

Hamstung-Slavers Bay. It has been three days… Yes, three!Joya has not received any calls from Prator or his men. At first she had thought maybe he was busy, but still she felt a voice in her heart whispering to her that wasn't the case.It was something to be happy about; she hated the fact that he was using her, treating her like some kind of toy. She hated that she craved his touch, his breath grazing her ears, and his thrust making her moan in ecstasy.But she decided it was okay; maybe he has become infatuated with another woman…maybe.But things began to become unbearable; with each passing day, her burdens grew.The officers who were in charge of the slaver's bay did not hesitate to use their whip on her back mercilessly. No matter how hard she tried to understand what she did wrong, it was always pain she got in return. Day one, day two… counting down to day seven, and that was it. She has had enough of the suffering; her skin was filled with bruises, and her arms became mor

Chapter 159: Prove Yourself

They say once you have a good friend, they are all you need in your life. Even during hard times, they will stand by through thick and thin.They will be your backbone, your support system. But the case was contrary for Joya; right that moment as she stood gazing at Merlin, her mind went blank. This height of betrayal was too much to handle; Joya felt her heart tighten. She placed her right hand on her chest as if to steady her breathing.She needed no explanation anymore. Merlin's silence had said it all, and it was painful to think that this very woman in front of her was the only person she had in this world.She would have given everything to keep her safe, to make sure their friendship stood the test of time, but not anymore. "Has the cat got your tongue, Joya?" Merlin questioned with a grin etched at the corner of her lips.Joya could do nothing but glare at her; she was still digesting the fact that Merlin had been a wolf in sheep's clothing. Indeed she was a fool to have t

Chapter 160: It is over

That moment, Joya felt like a monster…a wild beast. As she continued to flog the woman with the whip in her hands, under the harsh rays of the sun biting against her back, she looked dreadful. Sweat trickled down her face, rolling down her nose, her breath ragged, her knuckles white from gripping the whip too hard. "Nooo…. I beg you, stop, please! Cried the woman, her skin tearing from the whip, bruises marked all over her skin. But Joya continued relentlessly, tears breaking in her eyes. The women standing in the crowd covered the eyes of their children with their palms as tears gathered in their eyes. "Make it stop! Pleaseeee! A loud sound tore from her throat as she rolled on the ground, dust clinging to her skin as she rolled on the ground. "Stop! The whip was about to descend on the woman one more time, but at Prator's command Joya's hand hung halfway in the air. Her breath was now rapid, her hair sticking to her face, glued by sweat. The woman on the ground ha
