Zara persuaded her son into letting her go to the garden, before leaving.

As she got near the garden, a nervous feeling surged through her. And she kept wondering what the Neela king wanted to discuss with her. It's not like they knew each other so what did he want to discuss?

Meanwhile, Carl paced around the garden as he waited for Zara. By now he was starting to get impatient. 'Zara, where are you?' He prayed that her son or someone else did not stop her from coming to him, because he didn't know when he would get an opportunity like this one.

As he was still deep in thoughts, Zara walked into the garden, taking a quick glance around, before sauntering toward him.

"King Ryker, what did you want to discuss?" She asked immediately she got to where he was.

Carl was overjoyed and almost pulled her into his arms. However, with much effort, he restrained himself. Now, that she was standing in front of him, Carl felt myriads of emotions as he stared at her. Love, pain, anger, guilt.

And also from the immense pain, she felt all over her body. Pain caused by constant torture.

And to add to it, there were injuries all over her body.After the war eight months ago, Zara and her people were held captive by King Luther, who defeated them in a war and took over their kingdom.He brutally murdered and tortured her people, making them slaves in their own home...Zara felt like she would die any time soon.

    Zara's screams echoed all over the dungeon. As they trashed, and burn her with metal. The men showed her no mercy, even though she was pregnant. They hit her where ever they wanted, even in her protruding stomach.King Luther watched the scene with content and amusement. It was like Zara's screams of pain, brought him great pleasure. He was excited.Amidst her pain, Zara was more scared for her baby. She was scared of losing it. And at that moment, she could feel her spirit slowly leaving her body, as the pain was so unbearable. 'No, I can't die like this, I can't,' Zara mulled. She knew she was the only hope her people had, so if she had to lose her pride, in other to save them, she was ready to do just that. Besides, what use is pride, if she lost her life.With tears in her eyes, Zara said, "King Luther, I will do whatever you want, I will lick your feet, please spare my life and spare my people." Then she passed out.King Luther was overjoyed. 'It took only a little effort to brea

    IN AZRAEL Eight months earlier Ashira, do you think Carl would make it?""I can't give you any assurance king Alan. If the gods are on his side, he might make it. Otherwise, you'll have to prepare a grave for your son-in-law."King Alan and queen Lyarra were saddened by the news. Carl was the only hope of the six nations. Before it was seven nations, but now that king Luther took over his late son's kingdom(Neptune) and Carl's kingdom, merging them into one, it was now six kingdoms.If Carl were to lose his life, what would happen to his queen and his people? The news of King Luther's brutal torture and killing was everywhere, and they knew it was only a matter of time before he attacked their nation. After all, he was now the strongest king in Mercury, and the three kingdoms who were against him, would not be able to stand him even if they were to join forces."Ashira, please you'll have to do whatever it takes to save our son-in-law.

    They were stunned and gave Carl a look of disbelief. There's no way they would go to Morana(Everton and Neptune) and come back alive. King Luther was surely going to murder them."Carl, you have to reconsider. You can't just match to Morana with five thousand. It's suicide_ King Luther is not someone you can easily defeat even if you take your five thousand men and the whole of Azrael's force.Carl scowled deeply. "Then should I just sit back and watch King Luther brutally murder my people," he rasped, sending shivers down the spine of everyone present.They could tell that Carl was not the same man from eight months back, he was someone else. Someone with a lot of anger and pain inside, so even king Alan and Queen Lyarra filtered their words before they spoke."That's not what we mean Carl, but now is not the right time to go to Morana. King Luther did not just merge Everton and Neptune, he has Nedal and Crystal-Ville at his palm. They are subject state now, and they answer to him. S

    Zara and King Luther's wedding was held immediately after she denounced Carl. To the world, she was the wife of King Luther and the queen of Morana, but inside the palace, Zara was nothing more than a slave. "Zara, although we're married, you're still my slave. You're expected to do everything a slave does. And you will only eat the scraps that fall at my feet," King Luther tells her. Zara let out a sad smile, as she sat on the cold floor beside king Luther with an iron collar around her neck. She glanced around the throne room, which now looked like a whore house with her face wrinkled in disgust. She who used to be a queen has been reduced to a state of nothingness and is now been humiliated. Sad tears trickled down Zara's eyes as she blamed her ill fate. 'Maybe I did something bad in my past life, that's why the gods are punishing me,' she pondered, dabbing her hands over her eyes. Although King Luther, kept his word and stopped torturing and killing her people, he still made t

    Zara gasped in disbelief and her eyes widen in shock. So her intuition of Zane poisoning the food was right, but how did he manage to do it? she wondered how her son was able to pull such a stunt. He was just a child yet, he was fearless and daring. Right now there was nothing she could do as they would be in trouble if King Luther or anyone were to find out, so she remained quiet and watched them. "Mother, you don't have to worry, they won't die but they will be humiliated," Zane whispered to ease his mother's tension. However, that did not stop Zara from worrying. She silently prayed that no one would find out about what Zane did, so they would be safe. Zane, on the other hand, was not the least bit worried about the repercussion of his actions, all he cared about was his justice. Justice for the unfair and brutal way his mother was treated. ... Soon, King Luther implored everyone to eat and enjoy themselves. He was oblivious to the fact that his food was spiked. After all, no

    At the banquet, Carl sat beside King Luther on his left side with Myla beside him, while Zara sat by his right side with Zane. "King Ryker, it's an honor to have you in Morana_I have to say I was shocked by the news of you taking over Crystal-vile and Nedal(Neela) but now that it's done, I hope we can strengthen our relationship by building a bond. As we are the two strongest kings in mercury, I want us unite_to form an alliance between us," King Luther said proudly. He was sure that the masked king wouldn't be able to refuse his proposal. After all, which king would want to miss the chance of having a wife from a powerful kingdom, such as Morana?He turns to Carl(Ryker) with expectation and asked, "King Ryker, what do you think about my proposal?"Carl scowled as his face was hidden behind a mask, so no one could see his expression. Although he had expected King Luther to propose marriage to him, he didn't expect it to be so soon. Besides, he was not ready to remarry, even though i

    "Yes, father, my marriage to king Ryker_ let me wed King Ryker. And once I become the queen of Neela, I'll make him fall for me, and I'll also make him a puppet_That way, you'll have control over Neela too, and become the strongest king in all of mercury." Luther thought about what his daughter said, and his lips twitched into an evil smile_ Myla was right, if he could take over Neela, he would be the strongest king in all of mercury. Because right now, the Neela king(Carl) was just as strong as him, if not more. And one thing King Luther hated was someone as strong or stronger than he was. He wanted to be the most powerful, the most feared, and the most ruthless king that ever lived. And the first step to achieving his goal was by forming an alliance. And in order to form an alliance, his daughter Myla would have to marry the Neela king. Thinking about it, an evil smirk formed on King Luther's lips and he said, "You're right Myla, I'll talk to King Ryker about it. But don't you th

    "King of Neela, or should I say, King...?"I'm King Ryker of Neela," Carl declared, his gaze fixed on Zara all the while.'He's the so-called king of Neela,' King Luther pondered, and for some reason, he felt like the masked king was familiar, but he shrugged and walked toward Carl, while Myla followed suit."King Ryker of Neela, it's a pleasure to meet you," King Luther muttered, studying the man in front of him."The pleasure is mine, King Luther," Carl retorted, tilting his gaze to King Luther.A scowl appeared on his face, and his fist curled into a ball as the image of his people replayed in his head. Carl wanted nothing more than to slit king Luther's throat there and then, but he knew the consequences of doing so. However, it was not the right time."King Ryker, this is my daughter Myla," King Luther pointed to Myla, who walked seductively toward Carl with a huge smile on her face Although the man in front of her was wearing a mask, she knew that he was handsome, seeing as he

    The Neela kingdom(Carl's kingdom)"Your Majesty, I don't think it's wise for you to go to Morana. What if King Luther discovers your identity? If he finds out that you're alive, he's going to wreak havoc," One of Carl's councilmen reasoned."Your Majesty, he's right. You have to reconsider."Carl sighed, shutting his eyes for a second. He knew his councilmen were right, but he couldn't wait any longer. He had already waited for four years to free his people from their captor. To liberate them and give them the better life they once had. And throughout the four years, he made himself stronger and raised a powerful army. He endured the pain of being without his love and his family...Although Zara has a child for the enemy and even denounced him, he was not ready to give up on her. He still loves her as much as he did before, if not more. And the main reason he was going to Morana was to get answers and find a way to free his people.Carl opened his eyes, his well-defined face voi
