Marriage to King Stephen was great in the first three years. Carmen had still not voice out her opinion on the matter that had been bothering her in a long time. She had grown in a royal palace, she was mindful at how her father was Ruling Kineti. She compared Aota and Kineti. She saw that their financial situations was almost similar, as well as their way of doing things, however Aota did not have enough strong warriors. Only Gideon was the strongest among them all, hence he had been giving the position to lead. That proved rather dangerous as their enemies could destroy the country with one war. The Queen was restless over the matter. She finally found the courage to open her thoughts.

"My King, I have been meaning to speak with you about a certain matter." She said, in a trembling voice.

By paying full attention to his wife, the king was able to recognise the fear in his wife as she spoke. He placed the ink as well as the paper he had been working on and gave Carmen his full atte

    Carmen returned back to Aota. King Stephen was waiting patiently for her arrival. "My lady, you finally arrived. I have been worried." Said the King. "But my King, I told you that I will return right away. You worry needlessly." "Did Alex agree?" "He told me he will tell me. I do not know what has happened between Alex and I. We were best friends once. But know he has been treating me like a stranger. We are not as close as we used to be." Said Carmen"When did you realise that he was treating you strange?" "As soon as I married King Darius. Perhaps he does not want to overstep the boundary. I am a Queen afterall." "Alternatively,he could have feelings for you." Carmen laughed. "That is not possible. We have been friends for too long. I could have noticed something by now." She said. "Perhaps he is hiding his feelings from you." "Then he does good by hiding them if indeed he does have them,which I do not believe even for a second." King Stephen did not want to overthink th

    Meanwhile in Kineti, Jordan was finally free to open up to the King about what he had been hiding all along. "Old friend it has been a long time." Said King Cyrus as Jordan was making his way into the library,where he was most certain he would find him. "I did not come here to stay long,I only needed to speak and perhaps get a second opinion." "You want advise?" The King asked,with a surprised look. "You can say that. Do you still remember that night when I was in Shiandra's room?" "Old friend, I told you to forget her " "Sigh, I saw who I thought was Alex on my doorstep. I opened up for this person and even gave them my meal.." The King interrupted. "What do you mean when you say, you though the person was Alex?" "The person pretended to be my son. I suddenly fell down after having tasted the wine in my glass which I had left on the table as I was dishing up for this person who looked like my son. I began to tremble,I remember not being able to breath properly and unable to

    "You seem troubled." Said Shiloh. "Do I not deserve to be a king?" Nicholas asked. "You do my lord." "Then why do I feel like I am living under my brother's shadow?" "But you are, he lives in the palace, while you live here. You will always be under your brother's shadow unless you do something about it." Said Shiloh, biting Nicholas's ear softly. "But if I live there in the palace, I will never have the freedom of making hot love to you on the dining room table." "I would feel better if we made a three some with one of the warriors, what's his name, Gideon." said Shiloh. Nicholas stood up agrily. "You are a whore indeed. How could you want another man when I am here with you!" he shouted. Shiloh was surprised. "My lord, what is wrong. I was not serious." she said. "But you were. I have seen how you look at him sometimes. You really want him inside you. Don't you?" Shiloh kept silent for a while. "You know what get out of my house, you whore!" Nicholas said, grabbing Shil

"Jordan what has come over you?" "Do you think i am mad?" "You seem mad. have you forgotten that i am your king?" "Do you know that Shiandra visited me again?" "What did she want today?"

The King became still. Jordan stabbed his own stomach. But did not die immediately.. The King screamed for help. Two warriors carried Jordan and placed him on his bed. "Bring Doctor Collins." The King commanded. Fortunately the doctor was in Kineti, he arrived as soon as he was called. "What has happened?" The doctor asked. "I paid Jordan a visit this morning, the door was opened and so I assumed t

    Nicholas went to his house, disappointed. He slept alone for that night and the night after that. But on the third day, he was determined to find Shiloh. He was directed to her house,which was five streets, south from the brothel. He did not even need to knock, Sheila was watering her plant's. The house was very small. "Shiloh,my love." Said Nicholas. "Who told you that I live here?" She asked. "My love I came to apologize." "I will never forgive you,a hundred times." "Please Shiloh. May I come in?" "No!" Nicholas jumped the fence as it was short and rushed to Shiloh. He grabbed her hand and began to plead. Shiloh was not willing to forgive him. "I have something for you." Said Nicholas, taking out a golden necklace,with a heart on it. "Is this for me?" Shiloh pretended to be excited. "Yes it is,my love. It is pure gold." Shiloh took the necklace and observed it. "It is beautiful. Can you place it around my neck." She said. Nicholas smiled,he placed the necklace just a

    After Nicholas had long left, Shiloh began to sob. "Mother, I cannot sleep." Said Kevin,rubbing his eyes with his tiny hands. "Come here." Said Shiloh, wiping her tears away. "Did that man make you cry?" Shiloh chuckled. "No son. He makes me happy." "Then why are you crying?" "Did you really cry to see me?"No, I only said I miss you." "Is that the real truth or are you telling me lies?" "I swear that is the truth." Shiloh smiled. She gave her son a kiss on the cheeks. Then told him a lovely tale to make him sleep and he did finally sleep. Early in the morning, King Stephen woke up and saw that Carmen was not besides him. He went to the bath thinking he would find her there but still did not find her. He took the bath, slightly disappointed. When he was done, he put on his clean, grey coat and grey trousers,then placed his crown on his head. He went to the kitchen and found no one, but there was a good smell of something baked, perhaps bread or buns. He went to the dining

Theresa formed a protective, transparent barrier to keep them from the prophets, Alex and everyone else from harm. Shiandra's vampire's could not get through. They pushed but could not enter.

    Carmen organised a chariot, they both left for Gishon to see father Jonathan at the Zion church. When they arrived, the Archbishop welcomed both of them. There was no congregant fortunately. "Father,I brought with me a guest. A desperate advisor from the house of Kish. She wants to help." Said the Queen. "I know who she is. Ingrid, the first woman in Noracia, who even as the circumstances did not favor her managed to become the first female advisor in Noracia. I know her history." "I am humbled. I did not know that I was known here " said Ingrid. "Ingrid would like to assist us with what we need, whether it be funding, whether it be creating more crossbows,she earnestly hopes to destroy Shiandra too." "I hear you well, but where is prince Uzriel. He needs to also be a part of us." Said the Archbishop"Prince Uzriel will not be joining us as I placed him in a safe place, a ship beneath the water. He can only come out when the war is over. As he and princess Ashah who unfortunately

    Meanwhile Shiandra was at Noracia, in the form of Prince Uzriel. She had been observing the prince's movement's and noticed that he spend most of his time in his Science room, researching. She saw the greatest opportunity for immitating him. "Ingrid, I will be in the science room for some time. I would to show you what I have found. That is if you are not occupied." Said the prince. "I would be glad to. We can go." Ingrid and the prince went to the science room together. While Shiandra transformed into what looked like the prince himself. She commanded two of the warrior's that were standing guard at the palace gate to bring all the warrior's to the training ground as she wanted to speak to all of them."Men and women I come to you as your prince. And I asked that you take heed to my word's as what I have to say will be of great significance to all of you."said Shiandra.

    Morning arrived,Carmen took an early bath. The King prepared breakfast and they ate. "Will you continue with what you said last night?" The King asked. "Nicholas is our enemy, he works with Shiandra. He has to die." "Then hire a warrior. You have not killed a man in your life. Of you do this then you will have to live with it." "Father,I am well aware of the consequences that I will have to face for this. I know that killing a man is not the ideal thing to do. I also know that I will not hire anyone because I am not a normal simple being,I am a hybrid and I never miss my prey." Said the Queen. King Cyrus gave his daughter a warm hug. "I believe in you my child. Make sure you do not die." He said. Carmen simply smiled. She took a horse and rode to Aota. Killing Nicholas would have to be done during the day as vampire's were more vulnerable during the day than at night. Besides Nicholas was not even that strong as he was not feeding on human blood. Killing him with one strike t

Carla was not present at the meeting this time,however Theresa was. "We are gathered here tonight to speak about what we discovered in ishrat." Said the Archbishop. "Does Ishrat have demon's as well as hot lava?" Carmen asked. "It is the most ugliest place to be in. It does not have lava just red ugly soil." Said Kira. "Theresa advised us to rest, we did as she said. We then attacked Shiandra's vampire's unexpectedly unfortunately some managed to escape while most if them died." "What about Shiandra?" King Cyrus asked. "She was not in Ishrat. It was as if she knew we were coming " said Rita. "Are you saying that we might have someone helping her?" Carmen asked. "It is possible" said father Jonathan"I have been keeping an eye out on Shiandra's since we last attacked her children. Last night I saw King Nicholas carrying a human head, then en

    The following morning Ingrid went to Princess Ashah's room only to find her body there laying on the ground with no head. She screamed. Prince Uzriel ran to her. “What is going on, why are you screaming?” He asked. Ingrid pointed to the ground, Prince Uzriel entered the room and moved closer till he saw a body on the ground. He covered his mouth in shock when he realised it was his sister. “No no!” he shouted. The prince knelt to the ground and began to weep. “Who did this?” He shouted. “I do not know, I found her in that condition when I entered just now.I will tell the guards to look around for any clues that the killer might have left.” said Ingrid, running out of the room. Prince Uzriel covered his sister’s body with a sheet then left the room. “Where are you going?” Ingrid asked. “The people need to know that their princess has been killed.” Said the prince. “I will send out letters to the royal families from the other countries that surround us.” said Ingrid.

    Meanwhile Carmen was in the office working herself tiressly. Shiandra came to her in the form of Creselda, while the real Creselda was in her room sleeping from the witch's spell. "My lady I know that I'm only just a cook here but can you please tell me about the school you are building." Said Creselda's lookalike. The Queen smiled. She was glad to see a servant showing interest in the school. "Take a seat." She said. Creselda pulled a chair and sat."What you need to know about the school is written on that paper." Said the Queen, giving Creselda an A4 paper with writings on it. "Is it truly possible that when I finish my studies I will get employment in positions that only men used to occupy?" "Yes it is possible. This is something I longed for many years ago." "Is it also possible that I can become a female warrior as well?" Creselda asked,looking intensely at the Queen. "You can become what you want. The laws are gradually changing, soon enough we will be a free country l

    Meanwhile in Ishrat. "Is there any water here for us to bath?" Kira asked. "I don't know. I haven't really walked that long to see any water and I don't think it would be wise to use the water here." Said Carla. Theresa entered the room, the prophet's were all awake, but still laying in their beds. "There won't be any bathing until you leave Ishrat. The water here is poisonous and it's filled with evil. Drinking the water,is inviting demon's into your body. You will hear evil voices commanding you to do as they wish." Said Theresa. The prophet's began to whisper. "Is it safe for us to go to Shiandra's cave now?" The Archbishop asked. "They are tired during this time. They are stronger in the night time. We can go." Said Theresa. "She is telling the truth. Vampire's are weak during the day but strong during the night time. We might be able to defeat them." Said Carla. "Then we leave now." Said Father Jonathan waking up from his bed.

    Early in the morning Carmen took a horse and returned to Aota. It was a sunny Saturday morning and Alex had been waiting for the Queen to arrive. And when she entered the palace, he quickly ran to her from the sitting room where he had been waiting. "I thought I smelt you." Said Carmen. "You smelt me?" "I meant,I thought I heard you. Well I was hoping to you but I did not expect to see you this early." The Queen felt uncomfortable about telling people the things she felt and could hear from a distance. She was afterall the child of a hybrid. She knew much would be expected from her."We never speak as much as we used to." Said Alex with a frown on his face. "We never seem to rest. Our tasks never seem to end. But I am glad that you came. Your presence will always be appreciated." Alex smiled. "I'm very humbled to hear those words.
