The Third prince entered the King's chamber. He met the Queen, Elora, General Nolan, the Crown prince and the Second prince already at the King's chamber. As he entered, they all looked at him as though they had been waiting for his arrival. Liam bowed at them and stood at the center ready to get scolded by them but before they could begin, the Eunuch announced the presence of Princess Ingrid. "Let her in." The King gave his permission and the Eunuch allowed the Princess into the chamber. She bowed and stood beside her brother, Logan. The King stared intently at the Third prince for a while before he began. "It came to my report that you shot an arrow at your brother, Logan. Is that true?" "Yes." Liam simply answered. The King sighed as he had expected that reply from the Prince. "Why did you do that?" Liam arched a brow a bit taken aback by the King's question. In the past, he wouldn't even care to listen to his own side of the story and just ruthlessly punish him but now, did
A deafening silence reigned in the chamber as they watched the two persons holding hands and staring into each other's eyes. Princess Ingrid clenched her fist tightly that her knuckles had gone white already. Just staring at her holding Liam's hand irked her so much, how dare she... The King thought of what May had said regarding the Third prince. What the young lady said to him bothered him because he knew she was right. He had always had that mindset that the Third prince could harm his brothers. It was all because of that stupid prophecy, it was because of that prophecy that he had always seen the Third prince as a dangerous child that would one day rebel against his brothers and for that reason, he had treated the Third prince differently and ended up being wary of his own son. When did it get to this extent? The King closed his eyes as he felt ashamed of himself. The words the Roy's oldest daughter said to him struck him hard. He opened his eyes and let out a deep sigh. May
May hopped excitedly still holding the Third prince's hand. She was happy at how she had successfully prevented him from getting punished. She smiled at how she managed to save him this time but as she turned and looked at the Third prince, her smile faded. Unlike her who was hopping in happiness because she saved him, he had a gloomy look on his face and he seemed lost in thoughts. She let go of his hand and cleared her throat to get his attention. "What is it? You don't look happy." Liam looked at the hand she had just let go missing the warmth of her hand. He never knew her hand was that warm until she stopped holding his hand. He raised his head and stared at the young lady giving him a look filled with concerns. May waved her hands at his face when she still did not get a reply from him. "What are you thinking about?" She asked. Seeing him looking all gloomy was just so unlike him, he was not even flashing those annoying smirk of his. "What's your deal?" He fina
The Third prince stood at the large stable, staring at his favourite horse, Amigo. He had wanted to go for a ride to cool off these emotions he was feeling but now that he was here, he no longer had the will to go riding anymore. "Amigo." He called, stroking his horse. And as he stood there, the memories of what happened earlier replayed in his head. He had always been in control of his emotions, he had never showed anyone how pained, hurt and bruised he was but back there, while he watched her defend him, he just lost it. Those emotions he had always hidden, those emotions he had masked within him had just been unmasked by her. That Lady... how does she always manage to bring out that part in him he had thought was long gone? How does she always manage to bring out that self in him he thought he had buried in his heart? Just how? How could he feel this way because of some mere words she had spoken? Was that how lonely he was? Was that how love deprived he was that it felt like
May laid on her bed exhausted at today's activities. It was not as if she even did any chores today, she was just mentally exhausted. As she laid on her mattress, all the events that occured today flashed through her mind. Starting from when she tried to apologise to the Third prince, to when the Third prince shielded her from an arrow, to when she finally apologised, to the Third prince's chamber when he almost..., to the King's chamber and lastly, the large stable. The fact that all these happened in one day, she flushed when she recalled how they had almost kissed and she flushed even deeply when she remembered the words the Third prince had said to her at the stable. ["If that is the case, then keep taking advantage of me. Keep taking advantage of me until you get tired, Ms. Queen of no mercy. You are the only one allowed to take advantage of me."] "You are the only one allowed to take advantage of me." She smiled as she repeated the last words he said to her. "I'm the only one a
May neatly arranged the food she had just prepared on a tray. Although the rice was slightly burnt but she was still confident in her food. She smiled as she stared at the works of art she had just prepared feeling proud of herself. Was there anything she wasn't good at? Even when she obviously had not prepared a meal before in her entire life, she was still able to prepare this delicious-looking work of art even the maidservants looked really astonished by her hidden cooking skills. She bet the Prince would end up licking the plate at how delicious her food was. She smiled again when she was done admiring her food, she carried the tray and headed to the Third prince's lounge. As May left the kitchen, the maidservants who all had a puzzled look on their faces began to murmur at how Lady Audree had almost burnt down the kitchen because she was cooking a strange food for the prince. On getting to the Third prince's lounge, she saw Hadriel, the Sixth prince peeping through the entran
"Who. . .who are you?" May trembled as she looked at the three masked men who had just intruded her home. She could tell from their masks that these men were dangerous. The weapons with them were enough for her to know they were here to kill her, someone had sent them to kill her. The thoughts that she would be killed in this secluded villa caused her feet to wobble in fear as she fell down on the floor, her little puppy ran to where she was making soft growls to scare the intruders. May Edwards was a famous singer, she was nicknamed as the nation's first love because she was loved and respected by many for her unique and melodious voice. She rose to fame at the age of eighteen after leaving her father's house for her stepmother and stepsiblings who tried to make life a living hell for her. After the death of her father, her stepmother had always maltreated her and she could not stand her stepmother's ill treatments towards her so she left the house for them. She practiced and trai
Kingdom of the great Wohsland located at the eastern geographical region was a prosperous and powerful kingdom under the leadership of King Lucius. The great Wohsland emerged as a trading center for oil, gold and salt. They were known for their good fertile lands, agricultural systems, powerful artilleries and archery skills and their great population making them the world's largest and richest nation in history. One could as well say that the Kingdom was blessed and flowing with milk and honey and that made them superior over every other kingdoms. Another thing they were famous for was their tall and large castle made of ivory walls and several tall towers called 'The Grand Castle.' It covered an area of 728,000 square metres (180 acres ). The 970 buildings of the Grand castle have a combined floor square of 1,514,600 square feet and contained over 5,000 chambers making it the world's largest building ever. The Grand castle was specially made for the royal families consisting of the

Amory came back from hunting, carrying two large squirrels he had caught in the forest. He thought he would see the other princes at the forest but he didn't even come across a single one of them and he wondered where they all went. Some of the Crown prince's guards who saw him rushed to where he was and bowed to him. "Your Royal Highness." "You may rise." He said, handing over the two squirrels to one of the guards. "I see you caught two large squirrels, your royal highness." One the guards said to the Prince. The Crown prince smiled and replied. "Well, i just got lucky today." He then turned to the guard he handed the squirrels to. "Take the squirrels to the kitchen and tell them to prepare a delicious meal for my wife." The guards all smiled knowing how much the Crown prince treasured his wife. "Yes, your royal highness." They bowed and as they turned to leave, the Crown prince called them back. "Hold on, where is the Crown princess?" He asked. "She is at her chamber." One

May stood outside the Third prince's chamber waiting for him to come out, he was taking so long just to button his shirt. She sighed as she recalled what happened in the chamber, she was so flustered that she ran out of the chamber. She shook her head. "Let's forget about it." She said to herself, touching her already reddened face. After she had managed to calm down, she looked at the entrance. What on earth was taking him so long? And just as she was about to enter into the chamber, he finally came out already dressed. His hair were slightly wet as though he had just taken a shower. Was he taking a shower all this while she was waiting for him? "Let's go." He said as he walked past her. She trailed behind, none of them saying a word. They both stopped walking when they heard a voice call the Third prince's name. "Liam!" Eugene called as she ran to him and hugged him. Her action left May's mouth opened in surprise. Who on earth was this person that could hug the Third prince t
