The air around was still for a while.
Ives awkwardly looked at his teacher and king Raleigh. He knew king Raleigh was pissed off with that look on his face, He had discovered that king Raleigh didn't like somebody other touching him. King Raleigh was a possessive one and Ives didn't mind it at all. But he must do something before king Raleigh gets more pissed.
"Ah... good afternoon, teacher."
Ives said pulling away from his teacher's hand. Judas smiled and nodded his head and then gestured them to come inside. King Raleigh walked forward with Ives, holding and rubbing Ives's hand. Then he kissed Ives's palm right in front of Judas like showing who Ives actually belonged to. Judas was surprised at first but later smiled helplessly seeing his highness's childish action. His highness looked like a child protecting his favourite toy. Well, he was also glad to find out somebody could actually make his highness feel like that because he
Lady Blaine went back with an upset face and her eyes red. Anger was clearly expressed on her face. As she entered the gate, she saw her uncle sitting on a chair in the garden, basking in a sun and drinking tea. She immediately changed her expression from being angry to being pitiful. Her shoulders slouched down and her head hung low. Lord Nedes clearly saw his niece looking pitiful as lady Blaine started to walk towards him. Lady Blaine raised her head slightly and looked at lord Nedes with a face where tears were about to fall and she was biting her lips to not cry. Sympathy emerged from lord Nedes heart and he extended his arms. Who the hell dared to make his niece cry? Lady Blaine ran and hugged lord Nedes, crying loudly. "What happened, dear?" Lord Nedes asked rubbing her hair. "I went to see his highness today." She said sniffing. "Then why are you cr
King Raleigh was literally dragging Ives to their bedroom impatiently. Okay, he was kinda both angry and frustrated. First, he had to send Ives to another man's place and second, he had to spend his time with that annoying lady and finally when he had thought to meet Ives, another man was touching his Ives's face. What the hell? At that time he had just wanted to chop off those fingers that were touching those soft cheeks and somehow he managed to low his murderous intent and he was now getting suspicious too. King Raleigh could identify the gaze those eyes held while Judas was placing his hand on Ives's cheek. That was was full of yearning and longing. How could that happen? They had just met like a day ago or had Judas seen Ives before. And why was Judas asking about Ives's parents especially his father? Don't tell me he sees someone in his Ives? But who? King Raleigh didn't want to think. He just knew Iv
Lord Nedes was taken back to the Sherwood by his guard, who had already been fainted because of blood loss and pain. He didn't forget to curse king Raleigh for one last time before fainting. As soon as he was brought back, he was taken to his room and the doctor was requested for the treatment. Everyone was worried about him mostly lady Blaine and her mother. Soon after the treatment the doctor came out and was already surrounded by the Sherwood family members. "How is my father?" The eldest son of lord Nedes asked. "You don't have to worry, my lord. The cut isn't deep and he was only hurt on the surface but it will still leave a scar. I have bandaged his eyes and the cut parts and he may have problems in vision in his left eye." The doctor explained. Everyone sighed in relief thinking it wasn't a life-threatening injury b
Commander Jean was in his home sitting on the pavilion and enjoying the serene breeze. He was looking at the sky which was full of stars and a crescent moon. The red wine was on the table and two glasses beside it. One of the glasses was full while the other one was empty. Commander Jean was taking a sip remembering all those past events which always made him feel gloomy and gave him heart-wrenching pain. Even after all that why couldn't he leave him alone? Seeing his face made commander Jean again develop those feelings which he knows he shouldn't. Commander Jean still remembered the first time he met commander Wesley. They were just 9-year children who had a vast difference in their status. He was from a normal civilian family while commander Wesley belonged to a noble family who always produced great commanders for the Raven kingdom. It was also his dream to be one of those commanders and h
After the harsh rejection by Wesley, their friendship started to waver. Once close friends and sworn brothers now didn't even glance at each other. Once they used to agree on everything but now they had different opinions. Jean didn't allow that rejection to break him. He had felt pain when he and his feelings were rejected but had felt worst when Wesley ignored him totally for a month without even acknowledging his presence and suddenly declaring he had a beautiful lover who also belonged to the nobility. How could Wesley do that to him? Did he even consider for a minute his feelings? Well, if Wesley wanted that then he would also ignore him. Jean understood he would never get Wesley and his love after all Wesley was from a noble family and he was just a peasant. Once he had met Wesley at the inn where they used to go together when they were friends but now Wesley was there with his so-called lover and Jean was alone. Th
The relationship between commander Jean and commander Wesley somehow improved after that incident. Commander Wesley somewhat became patient with commander Jean. They didn't shout in each others' faces anymore. The kingdom somewhat gained peace after that. The southerners lost against the Raven kingdom and their leader was killed. His highness Raleigh Kainz was never the one to show sympathy and kindness. The leader of the south was cut a thousand slashes on his whole body and was left bleeding on the sun. After he died, his head was separated from his body and was left hanging on the border of the Raven kingdom and the Southern kingdom. It was a total defeat and humiliation for the southern kingdom and they haven't had attacked since then. King Raleigh became famous all over the Raven kingdom and other kingdoms for these actions. Kinh Raleigh strongly showed w
Today Ives was woken up early as it was an important day for him and everyone in the kingdom. The oath to pledge loyalty to the Raven kingdom was going to be held today. I mean he wouldn't betray the kingdom but just for the sake of his lover, he decided to pledge in front of everyone. In this way, everyone would be satisfied with him. "Petal, wear this outfit." King Raleigh said giving the dress to Ives. Ives also took it nodding his head and the dress was very beautiful. "Wow." Ives said admiring the dress. King Raleigh also smiled and hugged Ives from behind and said, "Um. The most beautiful dress for the most beautiful person." "Get ready. I'll be waiting." King Raleigh said pecking Ives's lips and walking away. After ten minutes, Ives came out of the dressing room and walked to king Raleigh. At that time k
Lady Blaine saw his highness's carriage going away. The most unsatisfying fact for lady Blaine was, that the insect also got inside that carriage and went away making everyone believe that his highness favoured that insect more than her. It should be her who gets to sit beside his highness. It should be her that should be walking with his highness and it should be her that should be riding on that royal carriage with his highness. Everyone should be jealous of her and envy her, not that insect. After all, she was their future queen, right. "Mother, I will come later." Lady Blaine said stopping her mother. "Where are you going to go?" Her mother asked. "His highness's palace." "But..." Lady Blaine walked away before she could st

The warm winter morning with the gentle rays of the sun was covering the whole Raven kingdom. The kingdom was nuzzling with the citizens doing their own works. With their new king, His Highness Satchell Kains, there was some change in the Raven kingdom. His highness was very intelligent and was sure he would take the kingdom to a new height and make it even more powerful. Everyone was happy and satisfied. On the other side of the capital far away from the civilizations, King Raleigh had prepared everything for his marriage with Ives. He was feeling like it was a dream. Just a few years ago, he was mourning for Ives's death and was alone but now he was marrying the love of his life, his angel. King Raleigh was really gr
It took four days for king Raleigh to get well. He was suffering from a high fever with a common cold and some symptoms of frost bite were on his fingers and toes. Ives was grateful that king Raleigh didn't suffer from pneumonia at this state. Ge was unconscious for the whole four days. Ives always fed him medicines and stayed by his side checking king Raleigh's temperature from time to time. Under Ives's meticulous care, king Raleigh's condition got better and better. Finally, on the fifth day, king Raleigh showed some signs of waking up. Oliver had also left the house to go to the city for his job. So, Ives and king Raleigh were the only ones present in the house. When King Raleigh woke up, his head was still aching and was feeling dizzy. He looked around and saw none
The sun had already risen when Ives and his father, Oliver got ready to set off back to their home. Their home where they had been staying forever. Their own small paradise, surrounded and hidden deep in the mountains. The land free from the stains of the filthy world. The place where Ives's innocence and purity were left behind. They were ready. The king, the queen of the Wallace were sad but they had to let go. Ives had been staying with them for more than six months and were attached to him. Princess Rosanne was the saddest among all of the people. She had truly loved Ives. It was not some childish crush nor puppy love. Ives had really captured her heart. It was hard for her to see Ives leaving but still, she had to let go. She went towards Ives and said, "Bye, bye. I'll definitely not remember you." &nb
Ives was unconscious and was sweating, twitching his eyebrows. King Raleigh was holding Ives's hands all the time like it was the last straw in his life. He was also wiping away Ives's sweat from his face from time to time. Ives was unconscious for a day. It was finally the next morning when Ives slowly opened his eyes. Seeing Ives opening his eyes, King Raleigh who was resting on a couch near to him rushed over to Ives's side excitingly and asked, "Ives, are you alright?" By this time Ives had already recovered his lost memories. So, seeing king Raleigh after opening his eyes made him both surprised and bitter. He turned away his face not wanting to look at king Raleigh and asked, "What are you doing here, Raleigh?"
The new was starting. It was finally the day of engagement of Princess Rosanne and Ives. Before that day, Ives had tried his best not to think about that strange yet familiar man. He always stayed around princess Rosanne so that his mind would be occupied wouldn't wander off somewhere. It is said that the empty mind is the house of the devil. So, he was always around her as if he was trying to compensate her. King Raleigh also returned back to the Raven for some time to recover after receiving such shock. He had also received a message from Prince Satchell to return as the matter was very urgent. He thought it was better to leave instead of getting hurt. Ives was finally happy and was moving on. What could he do? He was stuck in between wanting Ives to remember him and was also afraid of his hatred. He also didn't have enough
Ives and Princess Rosanne returned back to the palace. Both of them were silent with their insecurities hidden inside their hearts on the way back making the ride silent. Ives was confused by his behaviour he showed back there himself. When he had seen that unknown man with a mask his heart was racing faster. He had forgotten about everything around him and was only looking at that man for a while. But remembering now why did he feel like he had seen that man somewhere before? But he hadn't seen that man's face but his instinct was screaming he must have known him somewhere before. Those thin lips felt too much familiar to him. Why was his heart beating anxiously? Why did the tears fall from both of their eyes? As soon as Ives came back to the palace, he directly went to his room after sending princess Rosanne off. Princess Rosanne
As soon as king Raleigh found Ives, he felt like he lost him too. He wanted to keep that sand so much with him that he clutched it so tightly he ended up losing it through the small gaps of his fingers. After such a long search, he had finally found his Ives but he felt like Ives was far from him. Too far to close off that wide distance. His Ives was actually marrying someone else. Someone other than him. He didn't want to believe it but all the evidence were in front of him. It wasn't a good feeling. He wanted to believe that wasn't his Ives but those features which those girls described fitted all of Ives's features perfectly. He was filled with sadness and jealousy. He finally knew how Ives had felt when he was going to marry Lady Blaine. King Raleigh had the taste of his own medicine and god... it was bitter. &nbs
King Raleigh had been travelling alone on his horse now for two weeks. He was searching for Ives everywhere he reached. He used to travel the whole day and rest at night. He would sometimes sleep in inns and sometimes outside. After getting tired for a whole day, he would sleep with the memories of Ives. The fact that Ives may be alive somewhere was keeping him going desperately. He was wearing normal black pants and a white shirt with a cravat. He wore a long cloak that hid his face so none could see his face and know he was the king. He travelled across rivers, hills, cities, towns but still couldn't get any signs of Ives. He used to ask every people he met but still, there was not any progress. It was always a failure. Sometimes fear kept welling from his heart thinking the god may not want him to meet Ives. Every night he used to have a nightmare of Ives being happy without him.
