ZARA'S POV

After the wedding, a banquet was held to celebrate my wedding to Carl, and also the alliance between Everton, and Azrael.

"Princess," Lia yelled, running toward me. She threw herself on me, hugging me tight, that I almost couldn't breathe.

"Lia I can't breathe," I choked out.

"Sorry, princess. I was just so excited to see you. do you know how worried I was? we all thought you were abducted for real. Oh, Princess, I'm so happy," Lia let out, with tears in her eyes.

"I'm here now Lia," I said, explaining everything that had happened.

My parents and queen Catherine also came to hug me. They were so happy that I was back in Everton.

While aunt Anna, on the other hand, was a different case.

"Zara, so tell me what happened between you and Carl. Did you leave because you wanted to be alone and seduce the king?" Aunt Anna blabbered.

"Aunt it's not what you think, Carl was not even with me, remember. He was in Everton, while I was in Nival," I reasoned.

    Gwen walked out of her chamber, going to look for Carl. "I need to find him soon, or my efforts will be wasted," she thought.She walked into his office, and he was not there. she also went to the throne room, but could not find him. Where could he be? She thought."Guards, have you seen the king?" "No Milady."After looking around for minutes, she still couldn't find him."Did he go back to his chamber?" Gwen panicked. She thought of the possibility of Carl and Zara being together. "What if my plan fails?""Milady, you have to come quickly, Draco has carried out your order and is now in the bath with queen Zara," Morgana revealed.Gwen squealed, her plan was going smoothly. But she still hasn't found Carl."what do I do?" She worried. She suddenly caught glimpse of Queen Catherine, walking alongside queen Lyarra(Zara's mom) and Zara's aunt, Anna.Perfect!

    Gwen knelt before queen Catherine, whose gaze burnt holes through her."How did you know Zara was in the bathing chamber? Why did you go there, and what was your motive? Speak Gwen," Catherine screeched. Gwen was sweating profusely, as she picked on her nails. She rack her brain for a lie to tell Catherine, but she couldn't think of any."Tell me, Lady Gwen, why did you accuse the queen Zara of such a dispeakable thing. you sounded like you were sure the Zara would be in there with a man, unfortunately for you, that man was my son," Catherine has always seen through Gwen. She knew Gwen was an ambitious, selfish, and conniving woman. She knew that Gwen must have tried to do something, but fortunately, it failed. Gwen thought of something and said, "Qu...queen mother, It was a servant who told me that she saw Zara with another man."Gwen was not willing to go down the drain. After all, if her servant Morgana, had not given her false information, she wouldn't be in this mess. "It's

    "It was the devil," Morgana babbled. "The devil? Catherine asked in disbelief. "Yes, queen mother. I was passing near the king and queen's bathing chamber and was so curious to see what it looked like since I've never been in there, that was when I saw queen Zara and a man. His back was turned to me, so I didn't know he was the king. I don't know what made me assume it was another man, and I ran and told lady Gwen about it. I'm really sorry queen mother." Catherine was speechless. Although she didn't believe a word Morgana said, she just kept mum. Gwen on the other hand was so happy. "I'm glad this lowlife servant didn't expose me. It's a good thing she didn't think queen Catherine could protect her or she would just be fooling herself and digging her own grave." Morgana saw the smile on Gwen's face and almost scoffed. All high-class people are the same. Gwen had put all the blame on her because she was a servant and would never be able to defend herself. Although she had wanted

    "We think the one behind it is king Arthur of Neptune.""Why would he want to attack us?" King Alan asked."Your majesty, I think it's because we allied with Everton.""Yes, that could be true, because as far as we know, we haven't provoked king Arthur in any way, our alliance with Everton could only be the reason.""Your majesty, I think we should ask King Carl for help. You know Neptune is far stronger and has a lot more soldiers than we do. there is no way we could face them if they decide to go to war."King Alan remained mute, thinking of what to do. He knew his council members were right, Azrael could not afford to go to war with Neptune. the outcome would be very bad."Your majesty, say something," his council members urged."We can't ask king Carl for help," King Alan voiced out."But why your majesty?" Why can we not ask him for help, after all, that's the reason Azrael allied with Everton, so they can help us in times like this," one of the council members reasoned. He seeme

    Gwen and Carl were having their picnic in the palace garden. "Remember, when we were little Carl, and I would always hideaway in this garden," Gwen conversed, giving Carl a side glance.Carl smiled, looking at her "Of course I do Gwen. you were so tiny and it was usually very hard to find you in this garden," he replied."Here Carl, have this drink to our friendship and your new married life," Gwen muttered, giving Carl a cup of wine, which she spiked.Before Gwen asked Carl out for a picnic, she already set up everything, including adding the portion that her father had given to her into Carl's drink. Carl accepted the cup of wine, chugging it down in one go.Gwen grinned, watching as he chugged yet another cup of wine. She had spiked the entire wine including the one she was drinking, but in her case, she had the antidote."Drink more Carl," she urged, smiling sweetly. "Everything is finally falling into place," she thought.Little did she know that Prince Aiden and Eric hid in a

    "I've missed this Carl," Gwen whispered, grinding her hips against his.She pushed him to the bed, climbing onto him. Her pussy directly on his cock, as she moved her hips back and forth, trailing kisses from his neck, down to his chest."Zara," Carl groaned holding Gwen's hips like his life depended on it. Gwen tore her lips away in anger. "How could he mention that witch's name when he's with me?" She rasped, now convinced that Carl has really fallen for Zara."All I have to do is get pregnant then he'll love me instead."Gwen decided to ignore Carl's outburst and carry on with her plan.She lean forward to kiss him again, when someone knocked on her door."Who could that be? She thought.It's the middle of the night already, who would be awake by now?"Gwen wanted to ignore it, but the knock came again, this time more persistent and harsh. The person was pounding on her door, with so much force that fear gripped her."Wh...who is it?" She stuttered but got no reply.Carl who was

    At that moment, someone barged into the room cutting Carl off. We both snapped our heads in the direction to see Gwen standing in the doorway, a shocked expression plastered on her face.Both Carl and I gave Gwen a questioning look."Za...zara you are here," she stuttered.I raised my eyebrow, not giving her any reply. I was too confused at the moment to even think of any. ...Gwen woke up with a smile on her face. She finally achieved her goal. Last night was the best night of my life, she thought."Carl," she whispered, looking down at the hand wrapped around her waist. An even bigger smile formed on her lips, remembering the way they had sex last night, and how he couldn't get enough of her."Maybe he still likes me after all," she thought, turning over to get a glimpse of a face. It was then she realized it was someone else, it was her guard.She jerked up immediately, looking at the man in horror.

More citizens are getting killed each day, and even the troops sent to subdue the attack on the border were all slaughtered. what do we do now?"King Alan sighs, looking distressed. He was worried that if he didn't find a solution to the problem, more of his people would die. He felt bad that as a king, he couldn't protect his people in times of trouble.What could King Arthur want? they already allied with Everton, so even if he keeps attacking them, there was no going back."Your Majesty, this is the reason I suggested we ask king Carl for help. If you had listened to me back then, things would not have escalated to this point.""Yes he's right, things would have been resolved if we just asked Carl for help.""Can you just shut your mouth? If we have to ask Carl for every little thing what does that make us. Carl has a nation of his own, that also needs protecting, we can't just turn to him every time we're in trouble."Soo

    "Your majesty, we are under attack," a guard yelled, making King Alan's eyes widen in shock. Although he wasn't scared for himself, he was scared for his nation and the people. "Lyarra, I need you to take all the old men, women, and children, to the secret room," he tells queen Lyarra. She nodded in disagreement. "No Alan, I want to stay and fight alongside you." King Alan sighed. "Lyarra, I know you want to fight, but right now, the safety of the women and children is more important. And It is your duty to protect them." "Okay, I'll do that. But please be safe," queen Lyarra replied. King Alan nodded, before turning around to leave. Although they were taken by surprise, he was not going to let them win. King Alan put on his battle armor, taking his weapon. The good thing was that king Darian and his men had not bridged Azrael's wall. Due to their strong defense. Azrael was always defended by special night guards, in case of a surprise attack like this one. But their defense wa

Don't you think it's suspicious," Lia retorted and I chuckled."Lia you always find everyone suspicious. Remember, Myla is our friend, so we shouldn't jump to a conclusion and start suspecting her.""If you say so Zara," Lia said with an eye roll."Take me to Myla," I said, and followed her as she lead the way.When we got to the hallway, I spotted Myla standing by a pillar, glancing around curiously. When her gaze landed on me, she smiled."Queen Zara!" She called, running toward me."Where have you been Myla?" I asked immediately she got to where I was."Zara, I was so scared when you and Lia disappeared from the palace, so I also left going in search of you. I recently found out that you've returned, so I came back," Myla explained.I smiled, giving her a light knock on her head. "Silly girl, why would you go out to look for us

    CARL'S POV"My king, it's lady Gwen," Jerald answered, and I looked at him in disbelief."What did you say?" I asked, to be sure I wasn't hearing things.Jerald sighed. "Your Majesty, you might find it hard to believe. But the person behind queen Zara's poisoning is Lady Gwen," he muttered.I was gobsmacked. No, I didn't even want to believe it. There's no way Gwen would do such a thing. Seeing my doubtful expression, Jerald said, "Your majesty, I investigated this matter thoroughly, because even I didn't believe. The first time when we interrogated Lilith, I suspected that she was hiding something, so I interrogated her again. At first, she was reluctant to tell me because she was scared. but after much persuasion and assurance that I'd protect her, she opened up. She told me that the voice of the person who gave the servant girl the concoction sounded like Gwen. She also said, the lady(Gwen) gave the servant strict instructions not to tell Zara it was from her, knowing t

Although her plans fail, Nadia didn't stop scheming and attacking. instead, she became more violent and frequent with her attacks, but somehow Gage always anticipated her movements and stopped them from happening. On the other hand, King Alan and King Neil returned to their Nations after Zara's return, making Nadia feel alone and insecure. She felt like someone was watching her every movement but she couldn't wrap her head around who it was. Also because bad things have been happening to her. Like finding snakes or insects in her room, and also seeing Gwen's ghost. People were starting to think that she was going insane and was unfit to be a queen. Meanwhile, Zara and Lia couldn't solve the mystery of Myla's sudden disappearance. They were extremely worried that something might have happened to her.

    "It's queen Zara," the person yelled, pointing toward her direction, and everyone gasped, twirling in the direction the person pointed. They were all gobsmacked. They couldn't believe their eyes. "Is it an imagination or is queen Zara right in front of us?" "Zara!" Carl and king Alan called at the same time, striding toward her. "Father, Carl," Zara also called, climbing down from her horse to go meet them. Once they got to where she is, King Alan embraced his daughter, with teary eyes. "Zara, where were you? we all taught something happened to you," king Alan said. Zara pulled away from the hug, giving her father a sad smile, "I'm sorry, I made you all worry, but I swear that it wasn't intentional," Zara replied. King Alan nodded. He wanted to ask Zara her reason for going missing for several days, but he decided against it, once he saw the impatient look Carl was giving him. He decided to give the husband and wife time to talk. King Alan stepped aside, leaving the way for Carl

Nadia and king Neil argued amongst themselves, due to fear of leaving Everton."Nadia, you should pray that Carl finds Zara, else, I'll make you get married to Lord Brad," King Neil rasped.Nadia stared at her father in disbelief. "Father I can't believe you're saying that! You know Lord Brad is old and has up to five wives, how can you get me married to him?"King Neil scoffed. "That's what you get for acting rashly.""Father, you should also pray for Zara's return, instead of thinking about getting me married to old Lord Brad," Nadia said, frowning in annoyance.... Meanwhile, Carl made his way back to Everton with a heavy heart, after failing to find Zara. He felt ashamed and hated himself for not being able to find her.'Where on earth could she be?' He pondered. Although he didn't find her, he still had plans of going to the other nations in

    “Queen Zara, I am your avenging angel.”I was gobsmacked. ‘What does he mean by my avenging angel?’ I glanced up to look at the strange knight, before asking, “What do you mean?”He was quiet for a while, then he said, “What I mean by I'm your avenging angel is that: I'll help you take revenge on all your enemies, every single one of them. And aside from being your avenging angel, I'll also be your protective shield. And the reason is that I owe you something that can never be returned, but in this way, I can make up for it.”I didn't understand what he meant by that. ‘Why did he say that he owes me? I don't even know him.’ I wanted to ask what he meant but decided against it. Right now I'm more worried about Lia and Jamie than about knowing the knight. As if reading my mind, he said, “Queen Zara, your friends are alright, nothing happened to them.” I sighed in relief, happy that Lia and Jamie were safe, but a sudden reminder of Theon made my heart clench in sadness.

And I brought you a gift.”“Zara, I thought he was drunk, how come he's here? What should we do now?” Lia said, and I could hear the panic in her voice, as she gripped my hand tightly.I sighed, tilting my gaze to meet her teary ones, and I felt a stab in my heart when I saw the fear, anguish, and helplessness in them.Right now even I don't know what to do. I was still in a state of shock and surprise, making it impossible for me to think.Draco walked towards us, with his hands behind him.“Don't you want to know what it is?” he asked, with an evil grin.Lia and I moved back slightly, our eyes fixed on his every move, and we heard him chuckle. “Zara, there's nowhere to go, my men have already surrounded t
