EdwardMy thoughts traveled so far after I heard Rebecca’s voice, but then I had to bring myself back to the present.“Hi Rebecca I’m sorry that I didn’t have time to talk to you yesterday. Edwina was in a very bad state and I needed to take care of her but it is nice to see you. I hope you’re well?” I ask.“ I am well my king, I just wanted to have a word with you. I can see that Edwina is back here in Galentia but I want to know what she has come back as?”I quickly cut her short."Oh about that, I am going to announce the whole kingdom later today on Edwina’s innocence. She never had anything to do with the death of my mother.Neither did she have anything to do with Damien; she was just a victim of Damien‘s spiteful games. Would you believe that Damien killed her and her father on their way back from Galentia three years ago?Damien didn’t stop there, he held her mother hostage and used the situation to make her desperate and this was why she called for our help but Damien had oth

EdwardI could see the change in Rebeca’s demeanor as I said those silly words to her.To be honest, that wasn’t my finest moment but what is done is done.“Your majesty, I understand all that you have said and even though I am not pleased with it, I’d listen to you because you are my husband, if not for a little intrusion on our wedding day, we would be married by now. But it is no problem, you’re here now, we can prepare for our wedding again.My father didn’t know about all that happened at our last ceremony because he was on a pilgrimage a week before we decided on the wedding.He knows nothing about all that happened, and I didn’t want us to delay the wedding any further but this time I’ll make sure he doesn’t miss it, Your Majesty. I have heard all that you have said, I’ll think about it but while thinking about that, I want you to also pick a new date for our wedding so that we can begin to prepare.”She said and there we have it. The condition! The one thing she seeks to gain

Edward “I know that the rumors were spread for years in the kingdom about how Edwina betrayed us by working with Damien. I believed it too and punished her for it but after the last encounter with Damien, I realized that Edwina was just a victim of Damian’s twisted plot. On the day of the moon eclipse ceremony, when Edwina came here with her parents, they were all ambushed on their way back to Avalor and Damien killed the king of Avalor, after he kept them hostage. Edwina managed to escape, she came to me for help, but the rumors had already spread that she was working with Damien. Meanwhile, she was only just a victim. I would like you all to please kill that narrative that Edwina ever worked with Damien. I know the truth now. Damien also killed a mother and took over Avalor; All this while she only needed our help but instead we put her through suffering and called her a traitor. I feel terrible for everything that has happened to her and I would like you to please give he

Edward After the meeting with my men, I became eager to see Edwina. I haven't seen her today. I wonder how she is feeling… I have gotten so used to seeing her daily, it feels weird to me that I haven't seen her today. I can't help myself… I was about to jump back on my horse and ride back to the piece when I saw Omen run after me. What does he want from me this time? “You Highness, Your Highness! Please wait..” He ran to me. “What is it? What do you want from me omen?” I asked, frustrated. “You Highness, I just wanted to congratulate you on finding out the truth. I knew that sooner or later, the truth would come out, but I am just sad that we didn’t realize this earlier.” He said beating around the bush but I knew that he had more to say “Hmm, thank you for your words omen.” I proceeded to climb my horse. “You Highness you know I always told you that there was more to this event but you never listened to me. I feel so bad for Princess Edwina, she has lost ever

Edwina I have only been here in Galentia for half a day and I feel lonely. Everyone looks stupid to me, nothing fascinates me anymore. Even while I was at the old man’s place recovering, I didn’t feel this alone. It’s like I have gotten used to a particular routine even though I never really did much when I was there. Perhaps I miss the people there. Yea, that must be it. I miss the old man and his two young and pretty apprentices. I loved how they cared for me and made sure I was alright. Oh, they were sweet people. This place doesn’t feel familiar to me, I feel like everyone is looking at me, analyzing and judging me but I do not care about what anyone has to say or thinks about me anymore, I just hate that I have no one to talk to. I’m bored. soon decide to take a stroll around the palace ignoring that anyone would look at me and start getting ideas in their head. Damn, it’s been so long since I walked casually in a place with running or being expected to do s

Edwina “What do you mean when you say you do it for yourself?” I asked curiously. “ Edwina, you might not want to hear this. And this might not be the right time to tell you all this, but I will tell you anyway. I have been miserable for over three years now. The day I met you was the happiest day of my life, but I came back to Galentia to find out that my mother was killed, and that became the worst day of my life. I wasn’t normal after that, but finding out now that everything I thought was true is false. It has given me some sort of inner peace. It has made me see things in a different light. It has shown me exactly what I need to do. You had no idea how tangled my mind was when I heard that you were involved in the queen's death? What Broke me the most was when you came back and I had to decide what to do with you. The only punishment for such a crime is death and I did one to kill you, Edwina I hated seeing you as my enemy. Right now I hate myself for treating you

Edwina “Edwina, I heard that you were looking for me. So what do I hold the honor for?” Rebeca said. I almost chuckled at the role she was playing. She never seems like someone to be taken seriously. I wonder when she will finally release herself from the shackles of pretense. Ï wanted to apologize for all that has transpired between us, I am truly sorry for for abducting you on your wedding day. It was at desperate times…I’m so sorry that I put you in the middle of all that..” she didn't let me finish my sentence before signaling me to stop with her hand. You are so hilarious, Edwina. Tell me what this apology is for. You tried to have me killed and now you’re apologizing. Would you have apologized to my grave? I would have died just because you chose to be wicked!" she yelled It wasn't my fault. I wasn't typing to kill you for my gains, I was put in a very delicate situation…you may never understand it but still, I apologize.” I tried to reason with her. “Shut up E

Edwina I have managed to keep Rebeca on a leash for a while now it’s time to start working on other things. Edward has no idea of the deal I made with Rebecca and I have no plans to tell him. I don’t care how he feels about it. The only deal I will obey is the one I have with myself. I retire for the night after a long back and forth with both Edward and Rebeca. Two fools who call themselves lovers but they ith want different things. Their union is a ticking time bomb. I was back in my room with the two maids assigned to me, my wounds looked tidy and all that was left was for them to heal. Of course, I feel strong enough to travel but I will pretend to buy time. As the maids helped me prepare for bed after dinner, I thought about Benita and how much I missed her. If she were here I’m sure she wouldn’t leave my side for any reason. She would have kept me company and showered me with so much care. Damn, I miss her so much. I hope she watches me from wherever she is.
