- Giselle -

"Oh my goodness! Oh dear, Oh dear, what happened to father?"

I was momentarily distracted when Kira began to lament immediately she got to the door where the doctor was checking on Father.

She rushed to the bed and held him.

"What's happened to him?" She cried, throwing accusing glances at me.

"We were attacked," I had to reply to her.

"By whom? Where? How? Why?" She further asked. I sighed, not knowing what to tell her.

"Kira as you can see, Giselle has also sustained some injuries as well. You shouldn't bombard her with all these questions. Besides, there is no way she has answers to those. She definitely does not know why they were attacked unless she was the one that planned it."

Franklin had answered her calmly, and her dramatic cries had reduced.

"Oh Father," she sniffed. "What did they do to you?"

Then she turned to the doctor.

"Is he going to survive?"

Before the doctor could answer, Franklin offered one.

"He will, but first you have to keep calm. As you can see, t

    - Giselle -The pain in my belly intensified, snatching me out of my thoughts and I doubled over. I struggled to get to the room and rested my hand on the table.For a moment, the pain stopped and the next thing that came to my mind what was Kira said. Why'd this thought returned to me again?Am I wondering for whatever reason if what she said might be true? But that can't be and I know that for sure.What I needed answers to, however, was the question she asked about him being there. How'd he know?I have no way of knowing that unless I ask him of course and I worry what it would sound like when I do.When I began to feel the pain again, I walked to the bathroom to take out my clothes. Firstly, I need to have a hot bath.That was when I saw it, the blood trickling down from my insides. I choked on my breath. It can't be what I think it is, is it?I remembered when one of those men gave me a heavy kick in my stomach. It might have...no. No, please no.Sweat broke on my forehead and I

    - Giselle -I was sitting with Father in his room with Kira and the atmosphere felt weird. I don't know how long this is going to take but it's going to be a long ride trying to get along."I'm glad you are feeling better now," I decided to speak, not allowing her presence to affect me where I needed to relate with Dad."I was so worried father," she jumped in, giving me a side eye before doing that and somehow, I just knew what she was driving at. "I already began to feel something was wrong when you did not come on time but I did not want to jump to conclusions. Strange how Franklin knew right? I mean, he must have been bothered about the timing as well but how'd he know where you guys were?"She made it seem like a harmless question but I did not want Father to give it a thought."This is not the first time Franklin has come to our rescue," I quickly put in, with a forced smile on my face. "You've forgotten for a moment there that we have a connection. It is what's always drawn him

    - Kira -Father kept talking about random things after Giselle had gone. However, my mind was not with him at all but on the fact that Jason might be the one who brought the message.I was not happy that Father asked Giselle to go, only because I wanted to see Jason at least. Ever since I saw him the other day, I couldn't get him off my mind not because of anything serious but because of how he was kind to me.I wondered if I would ever get to see him again. Relax Kira, I told myself. You are a princess remember? Those are the kinds of people you get to see if you want to. It wouldn't be long again and an opportunity will present itself where he will be there."You understand?" I heard Father ask and nodded my head, not understanding a thing.Not long after, Giselle walked in with a document in her hands and I was sure it was the contract. But she did not look very excited."Jason senda his regards Dad," she said. "They heard you were not doing fine.""Oh that's nothing," Father waved

    - Giselle -I was not sure what my father's reaction would be when I told him what I wanted to do about the contract, and it came off as...well, not really a surprise.I mean, I should expect he would react that way because it seemed like an outrageous thing to do and because I did not give him any reasonable reason why I did not want to go on with the contract anymore.Maybe I shouldn’t have just told him so he wouldn't think I'm a terrible person. He must have been disappointed because of the things he said to me. He said I was selfish when all I was trying to do was keep him and us safe."Giselle?" Franklin's voice broke into my thoughts, and I had almost forgotten he was there. "What happened?""Nothing," I replied shortly and entered fully into the room. I began to change into a simple dress while his eyes remained fixed on me."Jason came over," he stated, and I was not sure how I was going to reply. The truth was, I did not want to talk in the direction where the conversation

    - Kira -My laugh died off when I noticed my mother was not getting the gist."You don't think it's funny, do you?" I pointed out, and she looked thoughtful."It's not that," she said. "I am only thinking there is more to it than we know. What if Giselle has a point? You wouldn't think that she would upset the King just like that because she fears the attack was because of the contract. I think she has a better reason for doing that."Then why didn't she just say?" I asked. "If she has a more valid reason, why have to go through this? Because Father is really mad, he does not want to talk to her.""I don't know why she will choose to keep it to herself, but I have a strong feeling something is amiss, which she not telling everyone or at least, she is not telling us."I looked at her, trying to understand what she meant by that, and she went ahead to explain."What if she has met the King after you left, to tell him what is happening? You were there when they discussed it at first, rig

    - Giselle -I stood by the table, looking at the contract documents and the words those men told me that day. They did not look like they were playing around because of what they did to Father.I have a feeling I know where this is coming from, but I didn't dare my guts to believe it. Yet I've been having a strong feeling about it.Prince Morgan.Now that I thought of it, and how he spoke to me that day, I could connect this to him."I think you might want to tell me something," Franklin said, and I looked up. He had walked into the room unnoticed."No," I shook my head."I have begun my research and sent my men out as well. And I'm glad to tell you I have made some progress," he told me, watching me intently."Really?" My eyes lit up."Yes. But I am not going to make any move if you keep trying to hide things from me and push me away," he said calmly but firmly."I am not...""I am your husband, Giselle," he cut in. "It is my responsibility to protect you. Your matter is mine, but t

    - Morgan -I was chilling in the room with a big smile on my face after a brief conversation with my father and Jason.They were worried about the delay from Princess Giselle's end in signing the contract."Do you think they are having a rethink?" Father had asked."I doubt as much," Jason replied. "Why will they? It's what they have always wanted.""So what's the delay? It's been almost three days, and still no response from them.""Alpha, I think it is a bit soon to conclude. Let's give them more time, seeing what had befallen them a couple of days ago. They were attacked. Maybe they are still trying to sort things out before getting back to us.""I want to believe so," father said. "That is what I have been thinking as well but I worry there might be something else.""I don't think it should give us any cause for alarm, at least, not now."I did not say anything, because I already knew what was happening. Princess Giselle is not so dumb anyways. At least, she has a little fear in h

    - Morgan -I opened my eyes slowly and groaned in pain. My head and entire body just seemed newly activated, and with intense discomfort.I tried to sit up, but the doctor quickly held me down."Relax back," he said. "You are not in a good condition to move."I eyed him and he took his hands off me immediately. I looked around and saw Father and Jason standing together at one corner while my men, stood close to the door with their heads bowed and that was when my memory picked up, remembering when these cowards did not even try to protect me from Franklin."If you survive this, I'm sure it will teach you where to draw the line next time," I could clearly remember the last words I heard him say. "You don't just touch anyone you see.""Can you see your life?" Father was the first to speak to me. "I have always warned you to stay away from those bad companies you keep, but you will never listen to me. Now look what they have done to you.""Father, my friends did not do this," I said with

    - Jason -I instinctively placed a hand on my stomach, waiting to feel any slight pain."Did you poison me?" I asked him. The seriousness dropped off his face, and he laughed. Morgan laughed long and hard, doubling over. He hit his fist on the table while he laughed, and I watched him, dumbfounded.He finally struggled to control the laughter with a wheezing sound, tears in his eyes."Gosh, you need to see the look on your face," he said. "I did not poison you, silly."I let out a deep breath I had not realized that I was holding."Now, why will I want to kill you and choose to do it by poisoning your food?" He asked, taking a cup of water from the table. He gulped it down and shook his head at me. "You looked so shaken. Are you that scared of death? For someone like you, poisoning is a disgraceful way to die, for even if I wanted to kill you, not that way."He laughed again."Morgan, that was not funny," I had to say."You think? You looked like a wrung chicken. You looked like your

    - Jason -I had just finished speaking with Alpha Sheka about very important matters of the pack and was about to leave when he called me back."That reminds me," he said. "I need to invite you to a banquet tonight. I was going to tell you earlier but I skipped. Also because of the matters at hand you know.""I understand alpha," I replied empathetically. "Where'd we get the invitation from now?""Oh it's not far," he said with a suspicious movement of his lips that could pass for a smile. "It's from my son.""Oh, that's interest...what!?" I was saying before my brain registered what I heard."Yes, my son, Morgan. He arranged the banquet specially made for me and you," he repeated and I still could not believe my ears."Did he say he wanted me at the banquet?" I still asked because I could not make sense out of it yet."He made a special request for you to be there. You are surprised, aren't you? Well, I am too. I hope you don't mind the banquet. I've always thought you two were...uh,

    - Jason -It took me a few seconds after I returned to my room, to notice someone was there. I turned around with a displeased frown on my face."What are you doing here, Morgan?" I asked him."It's Prince Morgan but yeah, I think I can let that slide since it's you and also seeing that you'd always stress me with having to correct you all the time," he said with a grimace."What are you doing in my room?" I sighed."I'm here to talk," he replied with a shrug. "Can't I talk to you?""What are we talking about and why in my room? Official meetings are not held in the bedroom.""That's it," he snapped his fingers. "Because this is not an official business.""I cannot tell when we began to have an unofficial relationship," I stated and he laughed."Maybe if you were paying attention more, you'd remember that I did mention it.""I don't want to be acquainted with you, Morgan," I said to his face. "I am fine the way we are.""Come on Jason, don't make this hard," he said, relaxing his back

    - Cleopatra -I eyed the greedy man and scoffed."What do you mean by this is not enough? Do you want four generations' wealth before you're okay?" I scowled at him."My lady, you know what it caused us to be able to cover up for you. And I have other people to settle and keep their mouths shut. You will have to remit more."I sighed tiredly."Okay fine. I am going to give you some more but that will be it. You must not complain nor ask me for anything after that. And you must not try to contact me because we can never be seen together. Do you understand?""Clearly," he replied."Good."I was able to handle him without anyone finding out about it, and I hoped it remained that way. Anna has promised to keep her mouth shut and only say what was agreed on if Giselle finds her, but I couldn't trust her.How could I hold her to her words? I looked into her eyes and saw the fear. Such a person can be easily l

    - Giselle -I was very eager for the reports, but I was disappointed."There were no prints," the experts told me. "The old lady poisoned herself to death.""You're trying to tell me she took her own life?" I asked for clarity even though I heard them. I felt like asking them why, but knew they wouldn't have an answer to that.The midwife was well, according to the reports given to me hours before I went to see her, and then she poisoned herself?This doesn't make any sense to me."There has to be a reason why this happened," I said thoughtfully as I paced around the room. "Why did she take her life? What made her do it?"I lifted my head, and Franklin was barely paying any attention to me."What do you think about this?" I asked, and he looked at me."I don't know," he said with a shrug."You don't think she'd take her life for no reason, right? What must have made her do it? Did someone threa

    - Giselle -"What?" I asked, my eyes following the direction of his hand. There was something at the edge of the bed, and I walked towards it.An old woman, obviously the midwife, was lying dead on the ground in the corner."Oh gracious heavens," I muttered, placing a hand on my chest. One of the guards moved close and picked up a bottle lying beside her."Looks like a poison," he said, lifting the bottle to his face and observing it. She had foam all over her mouth, and her body looked fresh like she could have died just a few minutes before we arrived.How did we not even notice all this while? And I looked all over the room. There were no signs of death anywhere.Gosh, I was this close to getting her, I lamented."Looks like murder," Another commented, what was going through my mind."What do we do now?" They asked me after moments of staring at the cold body beneath.

    - Kira -"Well?" Mother asked as soon as I got into the room. "Have you been able to find out something?""Nothing yet," I told her with a sigh. "And there are no signs to show me exactly what is happening.""I am sure that lady is up to something," Mother said thoughtfully with a finger on her lip. "I can tell it. She came to me and asked some questions, and that's typical of someone who wants to go looking for answers."I turned to look at her properly with some suspicion."You are not sure what she is up to? I think you should know since she discussed something with you. You think it's related to that," I pointed out."She said she just wanted to know a few things about her mother and asked me because I was Meredith's maid. At a point, I thought she was just asking because she wanted to know what her mother was like, but now I think something else is triggering her.""So? Is that something that should worry you? Do yo

    - Kira -I pushed his hands slowly off my body."There is no man but you, Xavier," I said quietly. "And yes, maybe I have a couple of male admirers, and I look at a few men, you've been the only one in my heart and the man I want to spend my life with. If only you had made moves to make me yours legally, maybe we wouldn't be here. Maybe I wouldn't even be looking at another man and admire him because I already have you.""Kira," he called softly, calming down. "Gosh, how can I be so insensitive? I'm so sorry, honey. I'm so sorry. I did not mean to make you feel this way.""Xavier, I have been asking you what you intend in this relationship. I have been the only one pushing, and it's not fair that you make me go through this, then think I am seeing someone.""You are right," he said. "I shouldn't have said that. I was just overwhelmed because you didn't sound trusting anymore, and most women sound like this when they have a man loving them somewhere, so I was worried. Look, I love you

    - Cleopatra -"What do you mean?" Anna looked at me questioningly."You know me well, my dear. I always keep to my word unless it's almost a matter of life and death, and in this case it is," I said, and she leaned back on the chair, her eyes not leaving mine."If that's the case, I don't think I have so much to worry about. I'm already on the end road of life.""This doesn't concern you alone," I said with a frown, slightly annoyed with what she just said. "I am involved in this too, and if you're too excited for the journey of the afterlife, then I am not, and this is not the way I want to go.""Too bad for you then, and why are you telling me? What can I do for you?" She threw at me, and I took a deep breath, holding in my anger."If it had nothing to do with you, I wouldn't be here," I said. "Now, will you shut your mouth for a moment so I can speak? You don't even know what I am here for.""It's almost not hard to tell, but anyway, you can go ahead.""After all these years, Frank
