Novel & Cerita The Man Who Would Be King Book

Chapter 10: Growing Desire The king watched as Isabel's eyes widened in shock at his decree. He had to stifle a smile as she stumbled over her words while her face paled with worry. In truth, King Lucian had no doubt about her loyalty. He was merely teasing her. There was something about her that roused a sense of delight within him, something he couldn't quite put into words.

The man said and walked away. “Who is that?” Elaina asked when the man left. “He is from the palace, Elaina. He said that my father is the king that just died because he was sick. He wants me to follow him back to the palace where I will become the new king. I will start a new life there with my mother…” he trailed off. Everything had come to him like a dream, one day he was thinking of going out to play with Elaina and the next day, he was suddenly called to be a king. His little mind couldn't fully process what was going on, he just followed his mom's instructions. The only thing he knew what that he won't be able to play with his best friend Elaina anymore. It was why he ran out of the ho

I also did not want any more surprises. I wanted to maintain order and prevent a war. We all wanted to go back to our lives. These people were like parasites, vermins, weeds that needed to be uprooted. They were a problem. One thing I have learned so far is that anyone who challenges physically in the open is true in comparison to one that hides in the shadows. The King's personality was clear to me. He was a brilliant coward that liked to manipulate from the darkness. He was also not sure he would win. That was why he was yet to make a move.

It was very heavy to lift. On it, was scribbled “The King’s Wisdom”. She turned the first page, she noticed the penmanship was clear and artistic. When she turned a few more pages, she realized that book was a collection of different jotters that the king had used at different times. She read an entry after she has turned a few pages: The ways of our people are sacred and if I must be a great king like my father was then I must learn our ways. What good is a ruler with no knowledge of the ways of his people?

They mistook him as just a man when in reality, he was a one-man army. When Henry was splitting the horde of enemies before cornering and slaughtering them, from his peripheral vision, he saw a cunning minister approaching the King from the rump. Leaving whoever he was about to kill, jumped over the bodies in a lightning speed chanting a mantra- ‘If the King falls, the Kingdom falls’.

They had all suffered when his son disappeared, the entire planet had become a war zone everyone lived in fear of the king. They were all looking forward to the prince taking over, because he was always looking out for them and secretly helped the people without his father knowing. He didn't even care that if his father found out that he would probably be beaten, but he still helped. Now he was abandoning his own warriors and his son to fight a battle he started. Hopefully his brother will warn the others and they all make it back to the starship before the king leaves this planet. The man thought as he worked the controls slowly to give his brother time to make it back to the starship. “WHA

He who is known as the perfect and cruellest king was kept in dark and betrayed by his people. Victoria broke the silence and said" Don't be afraid No one is greater than god. He who rules the world will do justice to all his people. To give justice he had chosen a man from many men to rule a small part of the earth according to his will. Like this God has chosen king Alexander Knight the king of country K to give justice according to his will to you and all your people". Alexander looks at Victoria. She is sometimes childish and acts recklessly but she has everything a Queen and a wife should have. She is like a mother to country A people and a caring wife who cares about him. Day by day he

I'm not sure if I'm opposed to that or not. I chew uneasily on my fingernail. "His position as King has been restored. I'm frightened of him." I'm curious to know how he managed to get the territory back off Vaia, and what or who he had to sacrifice. Now that he is King, I'm more terrified than ever. He has power, and he can do as he wants, and demands what he wants, including getting me to marry him. Marek frowns. "So what, you want to obey?"

The man he would have been, if tragedy didn't befall him in form of her father and turned him to the hardest and coldest man she'd ever seen. She allowed herself to wonder who this king would have been if his father wasn't killed, his mother wasn't killed, his pregnant sister wasn't killed right in front of him, if his people weren't enslaved. Bami had told her once that the king used to be bright and happy. He has always been a man of few words but it never stopped him from being as cheerful as a royalty is allowed to be. Lyra watch him blatantly. Now he's asleep again, his mouth loose on her, she can stare at him unrestrained. Her eyes caught on the shiny black curls of his hair.
