AMELIA

"I am losing my mind and I can't help it," I murmured.

I prepared for the competition, Lucia, a rival contestant, couldn't resist the opportunity to taunt me. She approached with a smug smirk, her voice dripping with arrogance.

"Well, well, Amelia. I see you've managed to stumble your way into this competition once again. Just a stroke of luck, I suppose," Lucia sneered, her tone condescending.

I straightened my posture, refusing to let her words dampen my spirits. With a playful smile, I retorted, "Ah, Lucia, always so charming with your compliments. But you know, luck can only take you so far. Perhaps today, it will be my skills that shine."

Lucia's eyes narrowed, clearly taken aback by my confident response. She scoffed, attempting to regain her composure. "Skills? Please, Amelia. Everyone knows you're just a mediocre Lady, riding on the coattails of fortune. Today will prove that."

I chuckled lightly, a twinkle of mischief in my eyes. "Ah, Lucia, you underestimate me. Whil

    AMELIAAs the last day of the competition loomed closer, Alaric and I found solace in each other's company. We sat together, our hands entwined, discussing our hopes and dreams for the future. The weight of keeping our relationship a secret had taken its toll on us, and now, in this intimate moment, we poured our hearts out to one another."I can't believe it's almost over," I said, my voice trembling with a mixture of excitement and fear. "But I'm scared, Alaric. What if the last competition is something I can't do? What if I fail?"Alaric turned to face me, his gaze filled with unwavering confidence. "Amelia, my love," he said, his voice gentle yet resolute, "I've seen you accomplish the impossible. I've witnessed you learn new skills in a matter of weeks, defying all odds. Trust me when I say that there's nothing you can't overcome."His words touched my heart, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination. "But Alaric, what if this time it's different? What if it's beyond

    AMELIALady Giselle's announcement hit me like a wave crashing against the shore. The final competition was indeed knitting, but not just any knitting—it was machine knitting. My heart sank, and a frown etched itself upon my face. All my practice and preparation seemed to crumble before my eyes."Machine knitting?" I muttered in disbelief, my voice filled with frustration. "Not even handmade knitting? This is not what I had anticipated."Constance, always my pillar of strength, gently placed a hand on my shoulder. "Amelia, my dear, I know it's not what you hoped for, but don't let it discourage you. You've come so far, and you can still give it your best."I sighed, my mind a whirlwind of emotions. "But Constance, I've practiced and honed my skills in traditional knitting. I have no experience with these machines. How can I possibly compete?"Constance's eyes sparkled with unwavering belief. "Amelia, remember that you are capable of learning and adapting. Even though it may be challen

    ALARICBoaz, has become one person I trusted, and an ally, who seemed to be our beacon of hope in this dark hour. We poured our hearts out to him, sharing our suspicions about the sabotage of the knitting machine and our belief that Lucia was behind it all. However, we lacked concrete evidence to support our claims."Boaz," I said, my voice filled with a mix of frustration and determination, "we need your help. We suspect that Lucia tampered with the knitting machine, but we have no proof yet. We can't let her get away with this injustice."Boaz leaned forward, his eyes sharp and focused. "I've heard rumors about Lucia's cunning ways, but we can't accuse her without solid evidence. We need a plan, a way to uncover the truth and expose her."Amelia interjected, her voice filled with urgency. "Boaz, do you have any idea how we can gather the evidence we need? We can't let her win by deceit. The truth must prevail."Boaz pondered for a moment, his gaze fixed in the distance. "I may have

    AMELIA"Why does love have to come so hard to me," I sat there, my mind filled with worry and uncertainty, a memory from my past floated to the surface. I could see myself as a little girl, sitting on a stool while my mother gently combed my hair. She had a warm smile on her face as she looked at me lovingly."You are so beautiful, Amelia," she said softly, her voice filled with affection.I gazed up at her with wide eyes, filled with wonder and curiosity. "Will I become a queen one day, Mama?"My mother's embrace tightened around me, and she whispered, "Yes, my darling. You are destined for greatness. One day, you will be a queen, ruling over a whole kingdom."I remember feeling a mixture of excitement and doubt. A queen? Me? It seemed like such a grand and distant dream. But my mother's words filled me with a sense of possibility, as if anything was within my reach.As the memory played in my mind, I could almost hear my mother's voice again, reassuring me of my potential. It was a

    AMELIAThe next day, I confided in Alaric about what I had overheard from the maids. Anger and determination burned in his eyes as he insisted on confronting them immediately. Together, we sought out Boaz to discuss the matter and hopefully find a resolution.As we approached the maids, their eyes widened with surprise. "Amelia, Alaric, what brings you here?" one of them asked, feigning innocence.I took a deep breath, trying to remain composed. "We know about your involvement in the knitting machine sabotage," I stated firmly.The other maid scoffed, crossing her arms defiantly. "You must be mistaken. We had nothing to do with it," she replied, her voice dripping with insincerity.Alaric stepped forward, his voice stern. "We overheard your conversation yesterday. There's no use denying it now," he said, unwavering in his resolve.The maids exchanged nervous glances before one of them spoke up. "Look, Amelia, it's not what you think. We never intended for things to go so wrong," she b

    LUCIA As I sat there, feeling humiliated and angry, I called for my handmaid to distract myself with a pedicure. "Can you believe the audacity of Amelia?" I lamented bitterly.The maid frowned, curious about what had happened. "What did she do, Your Grace?""She thinks she's so superior to everyone else," I said with a hint of venom in my voice. "I hate her so much."The maid hesitated for a moment before asking a daring question, "Why did you agree so easily to the crime they accused you of?"I sighed, feeling a mixture of frustration and determination. "I have my plans, my dear. I can't rush the whole process. At that moment, there was nothing I could do. Those two incompetent maids had already confessed, and the evidence against me was overwhelming. It was the only reasonable thing to do."The maid nodded, understanding my predicament. "You're wise, Your Grace. It was a strategic move."I smirked, feeling a sense of pride. "It has nothing to do with wisdom, my dear. It's about kno

I was trying to fight every will in me to say no, no to him pinning me to the wall and having my body press to his. "Alaric," I whispered and that was the tipping point for us, he took my lips into his, kissing me hungrily.

Gregory's betrayal had caused great pain and turmoil, and I knew that justice had to be served."People of the kingdom," I addressed them, my voice firm yet tinged with sadness.

    CHAPTER 40AMELIAAs I struggled against the restraints that held me captive, my heart sank as I looked into Lucia's cold, menacing eyes. She had transformed into a dragon, her scales gleaming with malice, and I knew I was no match for her strength. Fear gripped me, but I refused to show weakness."Why are you doing this, Lucia?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady. "We were never friends but I never hated you, I thought even once, when all this was over we could be friends."Lucia laughed, her voice filled with bitterness. "Friends? Ha! You will never my friend, Amelia. You were always the golden child, the one everyone adored. I should have been the queen, not you!"Tears welled up in my eyes as I struggled to understand her betrayal. "Lucia, I never wanted to take anything from you. I never wanted to be queen. It wasn't my choice."She sneered, her claws inching closer. "Oh, please! Spare me your pathetic excuses. You stole everything I ever wanted, and now it's time for you to
