HarlynI didn’t have time to discuss my fears with him as a knock came on our door and the guard informed us that the midwife was around.“You don’t have to come with me.” I told Bernardo when he started to follow me. I know he has a lot to do and honestly, I would rather he stay alert to make sure he takes the call as soon as Hillan calls. Yes, I am worried sick for him and won’t be at peace until he calls or texts that it is all good.I don’t trust Sean. I don’t trust Theo. They might be up to something and Hillan might be the pawn. I don’t want him to be a pawn.“Don’t say that. This is important. I want to be there with you. I want to hold your hands.” “Sir, it’s not like we will get the result today. She is just going to take my blood sample,” He laughed when I said that. “What do you know?” I asked him. “Let’s just say I told her to bring a urine test kit with her for the first test and she can collect your sample for confirmation.” He revealed. I should have known he wou
HarlynOur eyes met and I knew immediately that she wasn’t a good person. She smiled and bowed to me but everything just felt off about her. I looked to see if Bernardo noticed but he looked normal and so did the midwife. Only I could see that the woman with the midwife had some very deep negative energy around her. “Who are you?” I asked her. I just couldn’t stop myself from asking.“I am a student nurse,” She looked too grown to be a student nurse but maybe I was being ageist. I mean, if I do decide to pursue a career now or attend College, I would be the oldest in my class. That’s not the reason that I didn’t like her. I just felt off about her.“How long have you been working alongside her?” I asked her, and she looked at me weirdly.“Your majesty, I am a student, I don’t work yet, I am doing my clinical posting and that’s why I accompanied her.” She explained. I nodded and connected with Bernardo through our mind link. I needed to tell him how I felt about her.“I don’t lik
Harlyn“There’s no other exit,” I told her and turned to my mate who stepped forward. “Escort the young woman out, I will meet with you guys shortly, make sure she doesn’t try to leave.”“Your majesty.” The midwife called. She clearly didn’t know she brought a spy to the palace.“You stay back and do what you came here for, Nancy. She needs to answer a few questions and her answers determine whether she will be allowed to leave or not.” Bernardo said and beckoned on the guards to lead her out. She didn’t even say a word or try to fight them off, she just followed them out of the room.“She didn’t even try to fight it.” I commented when she was out of the room. “Yeah, I think she already knows that there’s no point in fighting,” He said and we both turned to the midwife. I kind of felt bad for her. She looked so confused.“Bern, explain to her.” I whispered to Bernardo in my head.“Sure,” He replied.“Nancy, you haven’t done anything wrong. You just brought the wrong person i
Harlyn“That’s so nice, you are practically family.” I told her. She smiled and nodded.“You can say that. I am sorry that I brought someone evil to the palace. I didn’t know.” I shook my head. It wasn't her fault that that woman turned out to be bad and like Bernardo said, it’s good that she came to the palace. If not, it would have been harder to locate her. I am glad that I was able to see through her and that Hillan called at the right time.“Don’t apologize for that,” I told her. She nodded and pulled out a needle.“Please, no needle.” I pleaded even though I knew I had no choice.“I am sorry but you have to get used to the needles now. You will get a lot of it during the nine months of your pregnancy and even after.” Okay, that doesn’t sound right. I really don’t like needles, that's why I don’t get sick. “Can I avoid them if I don’t fall ill during my pregnancy?” She shook her head and tapped my arm. I pulled out my arm for her and closed my eyes. I waited for the pain t
Harlyn“That’s a lot of things to happen in less than two days. what the hell?” Helaine asked when I finished telling her everything that had happened since she left. Yeah, I could say the same. What the hell?“Yeah, it’s shocking for me too but I am glad Bern and I resolved things and now we don’t have to fight anymore.” I told her. “Are you sure? If you want, I can whoop his ass for you.” She offered.“Whoop his ass? That’s the alpha king of the biggest pack in the world.” I reminded her. She scoffed.“I don’t give a fuck, if he makes my sister cry then I should beat him up but if you say you are okay then it’s all good.”“Yeah, I am okay and happy. At least I feel happy right now but I won’t truly be happy until the stuff with his cousin ends. I hope it ends soon because I don’t want to always have to look behind my back when I am walking or something. Right now, I can’t even leave the palace.” I told her.“I am sure it will all be sorted out. the men are taking care of it, a
HarlynI don’t know what I was thinking just standing in the hallway and blurting out things that should be secret but now, I have to fix it. I couldn’t just let the fucker get away like that and blurt the thing that he heard to that bastard Theo because that would put Hillan in danger and I don’t want him in danger.Even though I knew I shouldn’t be going to him, I walked towards the guard and recognized him. “You, I thought you stopped working here.” I let out when I saw who it was. The same fucker who tried to hit on me multiple times even on the night I had found out about Sophie being in danger. He had tried to stop me from going to the king, saying things like the princess was okay and all.Yeah, he definitely works for Theo. He tried to stop me from going to the king that night because he wanted his boss to succeed. I really thought he stopped working at the palace because after that day he apologized to me, I never saw him again until now.“Your majesty,” He sounded polite
BernardoI followed behind the guards quietly and waited a while as he walked into a corner. I didn’t need to get close to him to hear what he had to say to whoever he was planning to call. Harlyn has never been wrong and I am sure she wasn’t wrong this time.Yes, even the supposed nursing student who followed Nancy to the palace turned out to be a spy and it didn’t take much for her to spill the details of what Theo had asked her to do. Her mission was pretty dumb.She has told me how she joined the students that were sent to us. The Nursing school always sends their students to our general hospital and they spend at least six months here. I checked the list and the name she gave wasn’t on the list which means, she had to pay someone or one of the heads was working with Theo.I would find out as soon as I nab the guard who deserved to betray me.I walked closer to the corner he entered and sure enough, I heard him talking about the things that Harlyn must have told her twin sister.
Bernardo Which made me believe that Hillan planned to rile them up from the beginning and further cause a rift between them. According to what he told me, both Theo and his father weren’t fighting together, they just had a common goal. Even Theo just confirmed it when he said he didn’t give a fuck about his father. too bad for Sean. “Don’t call that loser my friend. I know he’s your puppet.” I laughed again and grabbed the guard when he tried to escape. I have been watching him even while on the phone with Theo. He has been looking for ways to run away. Too bad. “You stay put.” I warned him. “Did you really think a man of integrity like him would be on your side?” I can’t believe I just said that about Lovie but it’s the truth. He was too honest to be a bad person. Yes, I judged him wrong. Let’s just say that I am not the best judge of character. If it wasn’t for Harlyn, I wouldn’t have ever doubted Sean and not just him. I won’t have seen the female spy that Theo sen
