Isadorah was completely devastated. The wind was picking up, casting grains of sand in every direction. The employees were jostling to get in or out, and suddenly, the crowd parted to let Caleb through, his anger palpable. The air was becoming oppressive. Isadorah, in tears, crawled to Caleb’s feet as if desperately begging him.— I… I… It’s not my fault… I swear… Please… Believe me…Caleb, furious, grabbed her by the throat and lifted her with one hand.— I guarantee you, if anything happens to Myriam, you will regret being alive, he growled, squeezing the poor woman so tightly that she began to suffocate and tremble.Chrysia, our mother, rushed in screaming.— Let her go, please, Your Majesty! It’s all my fault! My Lord! She dropped to her knees, praying to Caleb and pleading for his mercy. My father, as usual, supported his wife, comforting her and urging her to get up.I was a witness to a pathetic scene. Isadorah was begging, Caleb was threatening, but no one seemed to care about
Caleb's POVIt didn't take me long to reach the oasis and find them under the permanent tent that Klaus had set up to escape the stifling heat of the palace.The little girl was curled up in Kensha's arms, crying in distress. I stayed back, wondering if Kensha had noticed me, but she royally ignored me, absorbed in comforting the child. She ran her hands through the little girl's hair, whispering soothing words, letting her cry and release her emotions.I sat a little further away in silence. Anyway, it wasn't safe to continue traveling in this sandstorm, which darkened the sky and shredded the landscape.After an hour of waiting, the little girl finally fell asleep, clinging to Kensha. She hadn't even had a chance to see me, and even if she had, what could I say? I wasn't close to her, and I knew I couldn't offer her the comfort Klaus could.Since the child had fallen asleep, Kensha hadn't spoken a word. She remained silent, a heavy and oppressive silence. I held deep resentment towa
The next morning, I was completely groggy. I had stayed up late, especially since Igor and Sloan had gone on an errand for me. I couldn’t help but worry, even though I knew their skills were more than enough for the task I had asked them to handle. But aside from that, honestly, I didn’t expect this kind of low blow. Really, I thought, stunned. Okay, if I were Klaus' wife or if I were in love with him, I might have really taken it badly. Actually... not really, because after all these years together, I have total trust in Klaus. But for those who believe there could be something between him and me, they might have expected me to get angry, throw a diva tantrum, and storm out without asking for an explanation, my honor tarnished. Amused, I let out a small laugh I swear I wanted to keep discreet... but it was far from that. To be fair, the situation was absurd. Barely inside the palace and spotting the royal family members, a young woman threw herself at my feet, begging for forgivenes
Some people will consider me lazy but at this moment I am in so much pain, I feel like I am going to collapse as long as my breathing is strong, my eyes are fluttering, an excruciating headache and I am cold but despite this all I continued on my way I wanted to arrive at my fiancé's office so that he could take me to the hospital. You might tell me that it's just a fever I just have to stay in bed and take a pill but in my current state it's better not to take any risks and too bad if he learns that way. Arriving in front of his office door, a “STOP” shouted in his hoarse voice paralyzed me, however, I decided to bend my ear towards the door to hear what could have made him shout that way. - I am talking to you for your good, my son, this girl is not good for you. She's always messing around with your brother. She never takes anything seriously. She disappears all the time, doesn't take the time to know her people, and worst of all she's not even a virgin said Caleb's mother c
A slap of incredible violence landed on my right cheek which made my head turn to the left. - HOW COULD YOU? HOW COULD YOU CHEAT ON ME LIKE THIS WITH MY BROTHER AT ALL? I WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING FOR YOU, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING he yelled before slapping me back, breaking my nose at the same time. Opening my mouth to explain his mistake he slapped me - SHUT UP I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU ANYMORE I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO MY MOTHER BECAUSE IN THE END SHE WAS RIGHT YOU ARE JUST A DRAG completely distraught, and destroyed I began to cry silently - Caleb this is too much emotion for you so you will think calmly about the decision you are going to make said Rakim seeing Caleb gradually losing control - My decision is already made he said looking at his father. But, your reason!! KEEP, KEEP. he screamed Responding to his call, two guards appeared in Klaus's room. - Take her to the dungeon, tomorrow at dawn I want the whip and a helicopter to be made available
I don't know when I fell asleep in the helicopter but what is certain is that I am in the middle of nowhere and I am cold, very cold. I'm shaking all over and the slightest noise makes me jump. Completely frightened, I curled up on myself. What’s the point after all!!! I just have to die here and now, I whispered, crying. Ten or fifteen minutes later I was already starting to run out of tears and I felt more and more even my eyelids were completely heavy. The end was near. But a flash came back to me. No! This is not the end; I don't have to give up. I'm not alone, I say, touching my stomach. I must prepare for the arrival and the future of my child, even alone in a country about which I know nothing. I must give him a future, the best that I can give him. But for that, I must... I must live. Yes!! I must live. Gradually becoming aware of certain truths, I sat down in the grass. I'm in horrible pain, I feel like my skin is extremely pale, and my feet refuse to carry m
After arriving at the hospital everything happened very quickly. Nurses immediately came to meet us with a stretcher accompanied by oxygen, surely waiting for our arrival since Mike had already called them and told them about the girl's case.Worried about the girl's fate, the idea of partying completely passed us by, even Derek knew how to keep his mouth shut.We were all, almost all sitting in the waiting room since Mike was pacing back and forth when a doctor came to find us.- Hello gentlemen he said to us before blocking directly on me and Mike and stammering a Gentlemen Parker and wiping his forehead, it's a huge honor to meet you in real life. He said with too much emotion stuck in his voice.Annoyed to the point, I asked him to get back to basics.He immediately cleared his throat and said,- Excuse me, sorry. He scratched his head before regaining his composure and continued, "I came to meet you to inform you of an emergency. Patient 05675 must undergo a transfusion becau
POV Klaus Where am I? Was my first reaction Unable to open my eyes, I began to listen attentively to the noises around me when I heard my mother sniffing. - he is in a bad state, he has two weakened ratings, one arm in a cast, and a nose broken and all that for a stupid girl who is not even worth it fortunately finally she is no longer with us, and life will be able to resume. What a relief !!! Stupid girl?! She talks about Kensha What does she mean by “more among us?” Oh my God !!! I hope they didn't do what I'm thinking Without realizing I had straightened up. - Where is Kensha? I asked in a broken voice. - pffff Barely recovered and you are already asking for her said Isadora with disdain - I don't think I spoke to you so shut up, I say harshly before tearing an IV from my arm. - What are you doing ? my mother asked me worriedly. Concentrating on my task, I ended up getting out of bed to look for a shirt and pants. But as soon as I got my feet on the ground, I s

Isadorah was completely devastated. The wind was picking up, casting grains of sand in every direction.

I crouched down to her height and reached out to wipe her tears away, but she suddenly backed away, causing her to fall on her little buttocks. I pulled my hand back so as not to scare her further. “Hey! Pretty little princess, why are you crying?” I asked in a soft voice so as not to scare her further. Instead, she burst into tears, looked behind me, froze, and then ran away with all her might. It surprised me. It would have been easy to catch her, but given the fright I had caused her, I stood there, stunned. I sighed a little resignedly, got up, and looked at them one by one. “Your Majesty, you’d better go ask her what’s wrong with her,” I said before disappearing completely. I had to get out of there as quickly as possible. Arriving in the great hall, I was able to breathe a breath of fresh air. My biggest problem was solved; it was time to start the next step. I took out my phone to talk to Igor so that he could give me news of his findings while heading towards the exit. "
It was Caleb's secretary who brought them out of their stupor - I'm sorry your Majesties, I didn't manage to stop him, she said, completely out of breath, I called the guards - What... But what the hell are you doing here... What are we playing here... Kensha the return suddenly cuts off a hysterical Isadorah almost tearing her hair out - For once the other is right, but shouldn't you have arrived tomorrow, ahh I should have known that you would have jumped at the chance. Salomé continued in the same way, betraying her involvement in my presence - that... Caleb said that I stopped short with my hands telling him to be quiet, too shocked or at the moment of the great anger that was rising in him, seeing the different expressions he didn't say a word but whatever he said in itself I took advantage of this small amount of time to turn towards the secretary who was standing at the entrance. The conversation was going to be heated, which meant no spectators. So I put on a mask and sp
Audrey's POV I had just landed and was already homesick. Azurah was indeed the land of all my nightmares, it was the place of all my fears and my uncertainties. It is also true that it is a magnificent country with a rich and stimulating history, and a moving, exciting culture. But that's where I suffered the most, despite all my efforts, I couldn't act as if nothing had happened... Brief... I don't have that to do even though I had prepared my entire stay and planned to do the 400 moves, I had to speed up everything since Klaus' situation has become serious. As I had to find out about the situation Igor told me about the latest setbacks of the Royal family after seeing herself being deceived by her husband and the one she considered a beautiful daughter Salomé was in a delicate position and wanted everything cost of saving her marriage so she decided to make Isadorah's life hell.. bad luck, Isadorah for her part after losing Caleb clung to the old man so wanted to make her be
HThis truth came to light after the birth of Miryam even though tradition wanted an intrauterine DNA test to be carried out, we had to ignore it because my mother found it downright degrading and made crazy scandals because her daughter-in-law and her little son or daughter did not deserve this treatment worthy of the last century but despite our rank, we cannot ignore a tradition which has proven itself many times so we carried out the test after Miryam's birth without my mother's knowledge and of the whore but the result was announced in front of the family and was final. My mother was completely stunned when the doctor announced a negative test and when he said there was a possibility of a fraternal bond between Caleb and the baby, her body completely gave up, not wanting to accept it, she asked for concrete results. which ended in depression accompanied by a large-scale screaming attack between my mother, my father, and Isadora. Surprisingly Caleb was not surprised, it was sai
Klaus POV I can't stay calm, there's something wrong and it annoys me that I can't put my finger on it, yet everything is happening exactly as Caleb and I planned and the extra delay that my mother asked probably in an attempt to come up with a foolproof plan to help me escape without compromising the royal family helped us collect evidence and bring down the masterminds of their stupid rebels but as mentioned I have a bad feeling Two years ago I had to return to Azurah because my brother, Caleb, had suffered an attack that unfortunately plunged him into a coma as a precaution he had mentioned by decree if such a case should present this it would be up to me to take her place, which of course had not pleased certain people like some advisors, my father and of course Isadora aka the queen, not so much queen I thought with a melancholy smile this woman is a real pain and an m. in short... But I still took orders, and took some reforms to ensure the protection of the people, and a
Two days, thanks to my brothers I was able to correctly analyze the situation without panic, which alone I am quite simply incapable of doing and after proof, I worried for nothing. Okay, let me explain Kl... Knock Knock - Come back, I said, knowing full well who was behind this door and a happy smile took place on my face. I didn't wait for the door to close before jumping into Derek's arms. Which he hadn't anticipated at all and we ended up on the floor to my burst of laughter - Arg... You're worse than Helisa, my word, he said to me, getting up and giving me his arm. I know you missed me but still, you must not damage the merchandise he said while pointing to his body with an arrogant grin of his own. Let's tease him a little bit... - What merchandise?? From what I know and what I see, you're below average so... I don't see where the goods are, I say, giggling when I see his outraged expression. Which is false... - You little pest!! I'm not essential but I always attra
