She felt wetness on her face and was horrified to register that she was crying.

“So you see Ms. Hazel. It’s never too late. I will not offer you money. I will not bribe you. Because I am sure that you are a woman of high principles. Still, I am ready to give you whatever you desire. Money, admission to some good university, or a title. Just name it. And in return …”

Hazel did not dare to face the man let alone look at him. But she knew what was coming her way.

She knew what they wanted her to do.

“Ms. Hazel. I am not a bad person. I am not against love. The proof is sitting here beside me.” He held his wife’s hand giving her a soft smile. She was looking down at the tabletop because of her younger son’s condition or to avoid looking at Hazel. But Hazel understood that they both were in pain.

“But young lady! You need to leave. I am not asking you to leave the palace right away. I am asking you

    “Hazel. Table no 33 wants some extra sauce for their chicken wings.” Clara came near the counter, tossing the tray in the plastic container.“On it!” Hazel muttered and filled the small porcelain container with the sauce. While balancing the tray expertly with drinks, sauce, and a Mac and cheese she went to the required tables to deliver the order.In a grey uniform that consisted of a button-up blouse with a short skirt showing her shapely legs paired with half-inch black heels, she looked beautiful yet graceful. Her hair was tied in a braid which always required Clara’s assistance as the hotel’s code never allowed them to keep the hair down or to make a chignon.It was the executive restaurant of a five-star hotel, the second topmost hotel of the city, where sixty to seventy percent of the customers used to be hotel guests. She got the job with the help of Clara who was not only her college fellow but also a very good friend

    They both were sitting at the beach. At some distance, a group of teenagers was having fun reminding both of them of their crazy old times.“They don’t know that practical life is going to be crazy shit. It’s good if they enjoy it now. Nobody knows what future holds for us.” She took a small sip from her beer can.Dustin turned his face to her and then put one arm around her shoulders, “Life is unpredictable Hazel! But you have always been a fighter. Why you chose Hillwood instead of Basera? The moment I received your call I applied for leave. Though they were quite persistent that I stay. But I told them that my friend needs me.” He squeezed her affectionately.“Why they were acting weird? I mean you do deserve leave. Warriors are allowed to take leaves. No?”“Yes, they are allowed to. But I guess …” He paused hesitantly, “I guess it was because I took it again in a short period.&rd

    He wanted to drop her first before going to the hotel he was staying in but she forbade stubbornly.“You are not staying anywhere Dustin.”“But where would I sleep?”“You can sleep with me, idiot. I am safe with you, now I know.” She stuck out her tongue earning a playful punch from him. He collected his luggage which only consisted of a small suitcase.“Just a suitcase, Dustin? Seriously?”“I’ll be leaving tomorrow darling.” “What? So soon?”“Next time sweetheart! I promise.”They both went back to her apartment.“You are doing well Hazel. You purchased it?” He was looking around hell impressed. The apartment was not much spacious but was furnished and had a class with minimal stuff.“Yeah” she smiled placing her purse on the tabletop. “The shampoo business helped a lot.”The

    They all were looking at her curiously. For a minute she did not know what to say. Then she just shrugged her one shoulder trying to look around nonchalantly.She did not know what to say. They all were looking at her expecting some answer and quite frankly she wanted to lie. But they all were her friends and deserved some honesty.“He was my class fellow in high school, in Kavoda city.” When she named the capital city of Kavoda kingdom their eyes went wide.“Hazel. You never told us you are from the city of Kavoda.” Poppi narrowed her eyes, “Not even when we were discussing visiting it. We discussed so many times about Royals but you never mentioned Noah James being your classmate. ”Hazel was thinking for some appropriate answer when Elli intervened, “Come on you guys. She just told you in College Café that she is still getting over a heartbreak. Do you expect to open up about her life so soon?”

Without disturbing her friends.It was a home theatre with bomb speakers.“Dustin. Join us!” Elli had paused the movie but Dustin just shook his head. And then something odd happened. Something, everyone sitting there was least expecting.“Hey, Jackson! Are you enjoying the movie?” Out of nowhere, Dustin asked Jackson.“No man!” Jackson had a bored expression on his face causing everyone sitting there to look at him savagely. “What?” Jackson had a smug expression on his face but that too evaporated when they all heard Dustin’s next words.“Do you want to spend time with me?

    It was a warm sunny day. The breeze felt cool against his skin. He never noticed the colors of flowers before. Nor he ever noticed how beautiful and blue the sky looked. He was a warrior who was supposed to fight. As a crown prince, he was taught that he needed to keep his emotions under control.But ever since his wife entered his life, nothing was in its place. With everything turned upside down, life had taught him a lot.He was sitting on the rooftop garden which was no more artificial. It was transformed into a real one with a lake. The wheel chair was still mounted there on the edge which was pulled back so many years ago.Taking a deep breath he looked down and kissed the little, four years old munchkin in his arms who was sleeping peacefully giving a damn to the world. When he stood from the garden swing, a servant came ahead and reached forward to take the kid from him but he shook his head.He enjoyed tucking Noah every night. Except when

    It did not seem like a piece of land but a place full of pristine white cotton balls. It was all white. Nothing else. Just whiteness.She felt like she was walking on clouds.Suddenly she felt nervous. Was it possible that she reached the wrong place this time? Should she go back and tell Zeki that it did not work?The place was strange, the surrounding was alien yet she did not feel scared. The place was not giving her evil vibes.Gosh! She could not even feel the ground under her feet but she kept walking anyways.And then something changed around her. The clouds around her seemed to bow down. A smile formed on her lips.Were they doing it for her? She thought to herself.“No Hazel. They are not doing it for you.” Hazel jumped up when she heard the soft voice behind her and turned around, “They are bowing down to me.”A silhouette of a woman … no … not only a woman but an extremely beauti

    They both were walking towards the forest their hands intertwined with each other. Just like their fates.They were accompanied by guards and it was slowly becoming a new normal for Hazel. She was gradually getting used to it. But sometimes it did make her annoyed.She used to miss her freedom.“What is it, my queen?” Concern was written on Ezequiel’s face. Instead of replying, Hazel just pointed towards guards accompanying them.“They are for our safety, honey.” He mind linked her but she just nodded her head instead of replying. He turned towards the guards and asked them to stop there.“We will be among those trees. You can form the circle if you want but do not enter the clearing.”The guards got the message and bowed their heads before forming a circle around that area. Ezequiel walked towards the spot well covered by the trees and then taking her in his arms he kissed her cheek gently.&

He had been doing it ever since she had started visiting her friends by using her newly discovered power.Kate was looking at her curiously.“Get your ass here. We need to talk, Zella.”“Let me finish this tea and cake slice. I can’t leave it like this.”She could hear Ezequiel’s frustration in his voice, “Using your power while you are pregnant, Hazel. I think you need to stop doing that.”Hazel did not respond back.“Hazel?”Hazel ignored his voice and started talking to Kate.“Hazel. Better go to your husband.

The door was about to be opened.Inside they were putting the crown on Ezequiel’s head. She could hear the cheering and clapping going on inside. Cameras were clicking and the ceremony was going live on the national TV channel.Just then her name was announced. The doors to the hall opened and she entered with a nervous smile pasted on her lips.Well!

Why?” Hazel gulped it down with the beer.“Mom is not there in the palace. I thought maybe she is with you.” There was worry in his voice.“Hang on. I am coming.” She placed the wrappers on Jackson’s lap. “I need to go guys.”Jackson was quite happy after visiting his mom again at the hospital today. She was much better now and due to this reason, he was in good spirits today.She came back to her room in a blink and opened her eyes.Ezequiel was standing there pacing around, “Did you try to smell her, Zeki?”“I can’t smell her.
