I wandered towards the kitchen slowly. My altercation with Jonathan was almost a week now and I had been successfully avoiding him. I was still scared and the thought still made my blood freeze over. It was not surprising that Jonathan had taken such a measure, what was surprising was why I had never imagined or thought that he would. I must have given him the benefit of doubt.

He wasn’t human like the rest of us, he was a devil and he deserved death but death for him would mean the annihilation of my family, my clan and my kingdom. Our existence would be raised from the world. Just the thought made me freeze over and I hurried towards the kitchen again.

Juniper was taking a break by the time arrived. He shot up to his feet as soon as he saw me and rushed towards me.

“Are you okay?” he asked worriedly and I managed a small smile nodding my head as we found a place to sit down.

“You fainted and we weren’t allowed near the clinic no matter what. I was so worried and the next thing I wa

    I don’t have the guts to go back and find Juniper even though I know clearly that he deserves an apology but I am too much of a coward to apologize to him. Somewhere in my heart, I hope he comes to find me himself but my new place of assignment is the palace. I knew that he couldn’t suddenly show up and that left me depressed for a while that even Serena noticed.“Are you okay?” she asked as I slowly sat up on my bed.“I…” I paused slowly, I didn’t know if I could share with Serena, she had been nice to me and helped me out. In fact my stay had been amazing with her around, I had been successfully ignoring Lillian because she was just an idiot.“If you don’t want to talk about it, it's fine. You don’t have to” Serena quickly added seeing my hesitation and Immediately shook my head.“I have a friend” I slowly revealed and Serena’s eyes widened, “You do?” she asked in surprise and with a smile I slowly nodded my head.“Yes. He helped me survive before I came here. He would usually sneak

    My words made Jonathan laugh in a second, his hand firmly clasped around my throat loosened and I fell to the floor. I coughed quickly gasping and taking in every oxygen I could and as colour slowly returned to my cheeks.“You should count yourself really lucky, just now I really thought about killing you” Jonathan said and I turned to take a glance at him. My hand slowly rubbed my neck and I didn’t dare doubt his words. If he held me any tighter, my neck would have been snapped into two. He was an alpha, he possessed incredible strength.“You should listen to Serena, you should live well and good so that your family and Kingdom can do the same as well” he added as he slowly walked away.Serena rushed towards me immediately grabbing my shoulders, “Amira, are you okay? Do you need water? Do you need to lay on your back?” her questions reeled out one after the other every single one laced with worry and concern.“Why did you have to talk back to Amira?” Serena quietly chided me as he ra

    I walked out of the room and proceeded to walk out of the room, trying to clear my head. I didn’t realize that I was already walking towards the kitchen area. Jonathan was getting so crazily on my nerves and it was getting harder to understand myself. He toiled with my emotions so easily and made me flare up so easily. With just one word from him, my anger would be up in the flames.I hated how easily he could make me angry, it made me feel like I was being manipulated and reminded me of home. I closed my eyes, leaning against the wall and slowly opened my eyes after taking a long breadth.The sight of my father’s stern face greeted me and I almost jumped in fright.“Dad?” I called out drinking in the sight of him in his regal outfit, “Dad what are you doing here?” I questioned looking everywhere if anyone was coming.“You are not supposed to be here” I whispered but his words immediately brought me to a pause.“I said that letting your emotions show is your biggest weakness and yet y

    The war came faster than I thought, two days later, the pack had changed and there was more training than I had ever seen. I had not been to a lot of places in the kingdom and it was until when me and Serena were required to go and serve Jonathan food at another side of the kingdom which I had never been to, it was then I realized that a whole section of the kingdom had been cut off for training of soldiers. I had always wondered why I never saw them or ran into them.The guards were more fearful and they consisted mainly of Alphas and Betas and with just one look, I knew how strong they were. Going over to serve Jonathan his food was now becoming a new normal.“They are riding out to war tomorrow morning” Serena said and I raised my head upwards. I swatted the clothes in my hands and spread them over the railings.“That’s good” I replied absentmindedly and Serena sighed.“What are you thinking about again?” She asked and I chuckled softly, “What do you mean what am I thinking about a

    Very early the next morning, I watched as the soldiers rode out with horses and the entire kingdom was lit up with flares even though it was only 5 am in the morning. I hugged my arms to myself while Lillian and Serena stood beside me watching the horde of soldiers.Jonathan’s voice rang in the whole courtyard and I could feel prickles on my skin from his loud voice.“We are people of pride and we have customs and traditions, we would never let anyone insult us and go scot free!’ Jonathan announced and a loud scream from the soldiers followed. “So today, we go and we fight,” he continued.“We fight,” the soldiers screamed again.“And we come back victorious” Jonathan added and the soldiers screamed again.I watched emotionlessly, I didn’t know what to feel. I watched as Jonathan finally got down from the horse and walked towards the high priestess and her entourage and knelt down in front of her. She sprinkled some water on him and bent down to tie a rope around his arm and smiled at

    Barely two hours after the soldiers left, a loud rumble accompanied with thunder and lightning rang in the entire kingdom and we rushed out of our rooms to see what was going on. The clearing skies had turned so much darker with thunder and lightning and they rumbled so loudly that it sent chills down my spine. The entire kingdom was covered in dark clouds and it looked as though it was past 9pm in the evening except that these clouds were accompanied with an eerie chill that was unmistakable.“What is going on?” I whispered as a loud streak of thunder rang in the skies again and everyone had to cover their ears in fear.“This is not good at all,” Serena said, keeping her eyes on the clouds that were getting even darker than before.“It’s not even the rainy season” Lillian bellowed, “Why are the clouds so dark? What is going on?” she asked and we looked around seeing the palace guards themselves wearing worried expressions.“Those clouds are too dark for my liking,” Serena admitted, f

    Nobody knew how much time had passed when we started hearing the hooves of horses. Without thinking, I jumped off my bed and rushed towards the door.“They are back!”“They are back”Yells that the soldiers were back rang in the hall and Serena and Lillian also jumped off their beds rushing out of the door towards the huge courtyard and then I saw red.So red that I was almost blinded by it. I blinked my eyes, trying to wonder what could be this red and it took me a while before I realized what I was staring at. It was blood. Bloodied soldiers spread across the courtyard and I covered my mouth in shock as I staggered backwards.“Oh my god” Lillian whispered and I could clearly hear the sob that choked in her throat.I watched as more and more soldiers were carried into the courtyard and then Masoma appeared in a hurry. I could see the worry and fear in her eyes as she moved around the soldiers throwing out instructions to them in quick, practiced manners.She was trying to be calm but

    Masoma’s words washed over me, over and again.Amira, under your watch, no harm comes to the King”I paused my movement slowly, staring at Jonathan who was motionless on the bed. His face was pale from his constant loss of blood and I couldn't imagine the sneer or scowl that he usually wore. On the bed with his eyes closed, he couldn't maliciously call me princess or strangle me or make life hell for me. Memories flooded my head as I kept staring at him while my face remained blank. He was harmless just like this on the bed and if I just stopped cleaning up his blood or stopped trying to stop his bleeding, he would most likely die; like I always wanted to.It was a case of reversed situations. This time around, I had the upper hand and he was the one who needed my help to live. The feeling courses through me and a small chuckle escapes my lips. I folded my hands as I kept staring at his unloving body, the blood had dyed the bed red and it wasn't stopping anytime soon. “Should I le

    The moment Juniper spoke, I shuddered as the large door of the shed opened and then I heard footsteps. I started struggling even harder with my ropes. I didn’t know how Junier had managed to make Jonathan come and even worse on his own.“Welcome your highness” Juniper said with a grin as he came face to face with Jonathan.“I hope you listened to me and came alone” he added and I watched Jonathan almost step on a trap that Juniper had laid out.“Be careful!” I yelled and Jonathan’s legs remained hung in the air.“He has set traps all over, watch your feet” I breathed and Juniper turned to me with anger, “Who asked you to talk?” he glared at me kicking the nearest object beside him and sending it flying towards me. The empty bucket hit my stomach again and I groaned in pain.“How dare you?” Jonathan growled at him and Juniper burst into laughter.“Easy there your highness, don’t annoy me” he replied and then it was Jonathan’s turn to burst into laughter. He stared at Juniper for a whil

    I couldn’t believe my eyes or my ears. Everything was starting to feel a little too fast, a little too real. Juniper’s words were as though he was driving knives into my body. No matter how hard I tried to keep my composure, I just couldn’t. I couldn’t believe that the one person I trusted with my life had set me up and made me a fool. At a point, I just stopped trying, the tears flowed down and I was so sure that I wasn’t going to be stopping anytime soon. Everything was starting to make sense in my head.Questions I should have asked before, I was just asking them. The doubts I should have chased before, I was just trying to chase them now but I was too late. Way too late.“So everything was all you” I whispered, biting on my bottom lip as he stared at him and Juniper nodded as he got up from his seat.“I thought I already made that clear already, everything was all me” he replied as he started moving around placing some things in the shed and I frowned.“You know I gave you a chanc

    Nothing at all could describe the pain and ache in my heart as Juniper spoke. His words were like tiny sharp prickles drilling into my chest and no matter how hard I tried to pretend that I didn’t care that what he was saying didn’t matter, I couldn’t help it. I had confided in him and yet he was using it against me. The thought of everything that had happened rushed to my head and my head started to spin. A part of me was still finding everything that was happening a little too real, unbelievable.How did I not see through at all?“Why are you doing this to me?” I whispered, tears running down my cheeks. He was supposed to be my best friend and yet here he was torturing me.“You know while I baited my time here, nothing seemed to ever faze Jonathan. He was so well protected and there was no leakage, nothing at all. There was no way I could penetrate into his impregnable wall and even the news about the palace was scarce. He had no weak points, only strong points but I knew that the t

    AMIRA’S POVI had no idea how long it tk me to open my eyes but the moment I decided to do so, it was a sharp pain and ache from the back of my head had registered in my mind first and it took me several minutes before slowly opened my eyes and tried i adjust my eyes to the environment and know where I was. It took me a few minutes, but I soon realized that I was in a shed. The shed looked old and rusty and it had a faint smell of old books in the library. It definitely wasn’t used so well. That was what I was sure of.I tried to stand up and it was then that I realized that my hands and legs were tightly bound and panic set in as I tried to loosen myself all to no avail. As I tried to free myself, I immediately remembered how I had found myself here in the first place. I remembered Juniper hitting me with a stick, the displeased look on his face as I fell to the floor. I hadn’t been hallucinating.I looked around as I shook my head while trying to loosen myself, “Juni wouldn’t do th

    “Amira, Amira, wake up, wake up” a strong jolting jolted me awake and I jumped on the bed with a fright. I turned to see Serena staring at me with wide eyes.“Are you okay?” She asked and the previous night memories came washing over me in an instant. The secrets I had found made a lump form in my throat. I had stayed in the medicine room, drinking in every detail and what I had found out had terrified me. It was a lie, it was a sham and I had walked into the room late to sleep.“Amira, Amira” Serena called again and I came back to myself while she stared at me with narrowed eyes.“Are you sure you're okay?” she asked and I quickly nodded my head.“Well, the king would soon leave for the war, I thought you might want to see him before he leaves” Serena said as she grabbed my hand, “Amira, talk to me, what’s wrong?” she asked and I turned to stare at Serena wondering whether to tell her what I had learned first but instead I got off the bed and rushed out of the door. I needed to tell J

    I laid in my bed for half of the day, wondering and pondering on Juniper’s question. I knew that he was right and he had only been looking out for me and that was why he asked me that question but I didn’t like what he had asked at that point in time. I was merely trying to be happy and at that point, my emotions had plummeted.I knew that like Juniper, anyone who heard about me and Jonathan would have questions, valid questions. Like how did we all in love? Did we really love each other? Would I be able to forgive him? He was someone who had turned my entire life upside down, would I still be able to forgive him? How did I even dare to love such a man? He hadn’t told me to my face that he loved me but I knew and I was also yet to tell him that I loved him. I didn’t have to think so hard because I had gotten my answer a long time ago, fate and destiny had a way of playing games and the games they had played with me and Jonathan were unfair games, games that shouldn’t have been played

    AMIRA’S POVNobody knew why the Princesses were sent home. What had happened had been kept tightly on a lease and no matter how hard anyone tried to pry, they couldn’t find out what had happened. When Serena found out what had happened, she had almost beaten me up especially since she had told me not to go and if she hadn’t gone to Kareem in the first place and Kareem going to Jonathan, something terrible would have happened and then nobody would have been able to do anything.By the time Masoma found out, Azrah had already thrown the girls out. He was ruthless with them and didn’t spare any of them. It was worth anyone getting angry over, they had in the name of whatever tried to ruin my face.It was no longer jealousy or envy, it was pure wickedness and evil and I wasn’t exactly surprised that Runa was the one who came up with the whole plan. She was capable of such evil but getting the courage to actually act it out, I hadn’t seen that coming and even though Freya had somehow found

Jonathan wasn’t the only one angry or furious. Kareem had been furious and Azrah had been mad, he had commanded the guards to send the Princesses packing immediately, they all thought it was a joke, they couldn’t believe that Jonathan was chasing them away because of a slave but Azarah’s actions had made them realize that he was serious.Freya had begged and begged, she had pleaded to be spared but Azrah wanted to hear nothing about it. He never understood the female royalty, the incessant jabbering and competitions, he never seemed to understand, there was no reason to be always in competition with each other. They could have chosen to be friends but instead, they hated each other, were jealous of each other and envied each other.Envy was a strong emotion and it was that envy that had pushed the five of them
