Rita couldn't help but stare at the mesmerizing beauty in front of her. How could a man possible look like this?

She took in every detail. The perfectly sculpted face, the defined eyebrows, the flaming eyes, the sharp nose, lips made to kiss and a flawless skin. And his hair, it was long, thick and black and shone in the sunlight. Rita realized that none of his hair was out of place or dirty even though they had spent the whole day on a battlefield.

Maybe she was giving me hints.” Tiana tried to analyze things but were could she start? First she has to figure out why Reilla wanted to help her at all. “Either she was related to me or to Nicklaus, or maybe Uzaih was related to Nicklaus.

Then she heard the cry of her child and the pain fled to the back of my head in a flash, so far back she didn't even know or care that she was in pain few seconds ago. The melodious cry of her baby was enough for her to forget all the pain she went through just seconds ago. All she wanted was to hold her child."You have given birth to a princess, Your Majesty."
