With each tear that fell, I questioned my decisions and my own judgment. Had I been foolish to trust Reuben so completely? Had I risked everything for a love that was nothing more than a mirage? Doubt gnawed at my soul, intertwining with the love I still held for him.

Through my tears, I whispered prayers, begging for clarity and guidance. I pleaded with whatever higher power existed to show me the truth, to reveal whether Reuben's love was genuine or a cruel deception. I yearned for a sign, a glimmer of hope to hold onto.

As I cried my heart out, a mix of emotions swirled within me. Anger, hurt, and confusion battled against the lingering belief in Reuben's love. I questioned my own worth, wondering if I had been naive and easily manipulated.

My heart sank as I tried to comprehend why they were all here, and what role they played in the unfolding events."Why is Rachel here? And Reuben... what is happening?" I questioned, my voice trembling with a mix of fear and desperation.The queen's gaze hardened as she looked at me, her eyes filled with a coldness I had never seen before. "Naomi, we have received disturbing news," she began, her tone laced with accusation. "The maids have been talking, and I have learned that you are no longer a virgin."Shock and disbelief washed over me as her words hung in the air. How could this be? The queen's accusation felt like a punch to the gut, leaving me breathless and disoriented."But... that's not true," I stammered, my voice barely audible. "I have remained faithful to Reuben... I am still a virgin."Reuben remained silent, his face

    As my mother led me up to our small apartment above the bakery, a heavy silence hung in the air. The weight of my shame and regret pressed down upon me, making each step feel like an eternity. I could see the confusion and concern etched on my family's faces, but I knew that they couldn't fully comprehend the magnitude of my despair.We sat together in the cramped living room, a stark contrast to the opulence of the palace I had once called home. My mother, her eyes filled with a mix of worry and frustration, looked at me intently. "Naomi, what did you mean when you said it was too late? What happened?"I took a deep breath, trying to find the words to explain the depth of my pain. "Mother, I... I fell for Reuben's charm," I confessed, my voice barely above a whisper. "I believed in his love, in his promises. But he betrayed me, Mother. He took advantage of my trust."My mother's eyes widened in shock and disappointment. She reached out and slapped me across the face, her voice filled

    As I turned to walk away from the queen, my heart heavy with the weight of my decisions, her voice cut through the air like a knife."Think, Rueben," she sneered. "Think about what you've done to that poor girl. You took her innocence and claimed not to know her. Do you honestly believe she would ever accept you back? Even if you were to beg on your knees, she would never be your betrothed again. You have lost, Rueben. You have lost everything."Her words pierced my soul, each one a painful reminder of the irreversible damage I had caused.

    Surprised by my mother's statement, I turned to face her, confusion evident in my eyes. "Rachel?" I repeated, my voice laced with uncertainty. "But mother, I thought we agreed that it was best for Naomi and me to part ways."The Queen's expression softened, her eyes filled with a mix of understanding and determination. "Rueben, I understand your reasoning, and I respect your desire to do what is best for both yourself and Naomi. But we must also consider the implications of breaking the promise made by our forefathers. The council members and the people of our kingdom hold great importance to tradition and stability. By choosing Rachel as your queen, we can maintain that sense of continuity while also fostering a sense of unity among our people."I took a moment to absorb my mother's words, feeling torn between my own desires and the weight of responsibility placed upon me. The council members watched me expectantly, their eyes filled with a mix of hope and concern.But as I glanced a

    lThe weight of Demetrius's words hit me like a ton of bricks. My heart raced, and a sense of dread settled in the pit of my stomach. I couldn't believe what I had just revealed to him in my moment of desperation. I had unknowingly given him a weapon to use against me and Reuben."You can't be serious," I whispered, my voice trembling. "You wouldn't stoop so low as to deceive the Queen and claim my child as your own."Demetrius's smile widened, his eyes gleaming with malicious delight. "Oh, but I would, Naomi. I would do anything to secure my place on the throne. And what better way than to present the Queen with an heir, one that she believes is mine."Tears welled up in my eyes as I realized the extent of Demetrius's wickedness. He was willing to manipulate everyone, even his own mother, just to fulfill his lust for power."But the Queen will see through your lies," I pleaded, my voice barely above a whisper. "She knows the truth, and she will never accept you as the rightful King."

Demetrius had captured me once again, and I was at his mercy.Before I could gather my thoughts, the sound of the door creaking open filled the room. Demetrius stepped in, his eyes filled with a sadistic gleam.

I want to be free."Demetrius chuckled darkly, his voice laced with contempt. "Oh, Naomi, you always did know how to make me laugh. But you see, you're mine now. And I won't let you slip away again."Tears welled up in my eyes as I pleaded with him, my voice trembling. "Please, Demetrius, I'm begging you. Think of the

Life had taken a drastic turn, and while I missed Rueben dearly, I knew that leaving was the right decision. The weight of tradition and duty had become too heavy to bear, and I needed time and space to sort through my emotions.But lately, something unusual has been happening to me. I had been feeling nauseous in the mornings, and my appetite had changed. The thought crossed my mind that I might be pregnant, but it seemed impossible. Rueben and I had never been intimate more than once, and I couldn't fathom how it could have happened quickly.The morning sickness persisted, and I couldn't shake off the worry that gnawed at the back of my mind. I confided in Salie, who listened attentively and offered her support."Naomi, it's possible that it's just a stomach bug or something you ate," Salie reassured me, her voice filled with concern.
