Manolo’s POV

I was reading in the study when I heard a knock at the door.

“Come in.” My eyes didn't move from the book.

The door was opened and a soft sound of footsteps came closer and closer to me.

I looked up and saw Dalena.

“You've been locked yourself in your room since you came to Rodrigue Castle,” Dalena said to me.

“I want to find an antidote to the Love-forgetting Potion.”

Dalena sighed. “ The Love-forgetting Potion is not a poison, so there is no antidote.”

“Is there really nothing we can do?” I felt a wave of despair.

“What's special about the Love-forgetting Potion is that it has different effects on different people,” Dalena said. “If a woman drinks it and still falls in love with a man, she dies. Do you remember that?”

“I remember.”

“However, there are many ways to die. Some people turn into foam, some people go into a coma and never wake up, and some people turn into a flower.”

“What happened to them?” I asked excitedly. These ways are not death, and we still have a gli

    Sibyl’s POVIn the morning, Nuri and I stood in the hallway waiting for my aunt, Dalena.She was still wearing her cloak, but I could feel her nervousness.“Sibyl, you know, we witches never get involved in anything related to power. If it wasn't for my sister, I would never want to go into the palace.”“I know, auntie. Nuri and I will stay with you. Please don't worry.”“No, just let me go into his palace alone. Don't come in with me. I'm a witch. The King won't hurt me.”“Yes, auntie.” I took her hand and went with her to the carriage.The horse's hooves beat the ground regularly. We are getting closer and closer to the palace.To tell the truth, I am very nervous now. I feel my palms sweating.Today I will know what happened 18 years ago and everything about my mom.Since our carriage bore the family crest of Rodriguez, no palace guards dared to stop it, and we took Dalena straight to the king's palace.Dalena stood on the tiles and shook her head as she looked at the magnificent h

    Dalena’s POVThe palace door was closed behind me.There was a terrible silence in the palace, and only the sunlight through the windows warmed me.I exhaled slowly, plucked up the courage to go deep into the house.A muffled cough came from the inner room. A weak man's voice said, “Come in.”I approached the room, and the smell of medicine and incense made me cover my nose subconsciously.From the smell, I knew that this man had a very serious lung disease. He may not live long.I saw a gorgeous bed in front of me with a half-opened curtain. A middle-aged man sat up in bed and turned to look at me. “Sibyl, have you finally thought this through?”He looked up at my face, eyes showing confusion, then shock. “You? You're alive?”“How is that possible?” He said to himself with his head down.“After all these years, you still remember my sister's face. I don't know if I should be happy for her.” I sneered and introduced myself. “I'm Dalena, Raven's sister.”The king suddenly smiled. “Yes,

I just sat with her, watching her cry, and then handed her a tissue.King, or should I call him father? After so many years of life, I have given up on him.He is an extremely selfish person. He's always doing things that hurt people and never feels sorry for them. He is not like the queen. The Queen knew what she was doing was wrong but she insisted on doing it, and the King didn't think what he was doing was wrong at all.They really are a good match.These days, I'm not feeling well either.

The scene in the dream was so terrible that I felt a little suffocated, and could only keep short of breath.In the dream, a tall man stood opposite me. I couldn't see his face, but I could feel the shock and anger in his eyes as he looked at me. I smelled blood. I looked down and saw that I had a dagger in the man's chest.Why would I kill someone in my dream?This dream makes me feel bad. I lay in bed, turning over in the dark, trying to hold Nuri.But he wasn't there.Where's Nuri?I sat up and shouted, “Amy! Amy!”I was surprised to find my voice hoarse.I only remember that I cried out loudly in my dream, but why did I wake up with a hoarse voice?“Your grace, I'm here.” Amy heard a noise coming in.“Amy,” I said as I took her hand, relieved, “Where is Nuri?”“Sir Rodriguez is in the army now.”Did something happen in the

He knelt down after the examination and said, “Sir, Mrs. Rodriguez is not sick. She has been poisoned.”“What?” I was shocked. Sibyl has been living in our family castle and I have sent many soldiers to keep her safe. Everything she had used, everything she had eaten, had been examined. I don't know why she was poisoned.The doctor said with a trembling voice, “I don't know what kind of poison it is. There's a curse in it. It's not just any poison.”“A curse?”I carried Sibyl into my arms and rode off to the castle. “Go home, find Dalena.”Dalena is a witch. She must know what this poison is.Roth followed me on horseback with his men. As I passed through the gate, the guard tried to stop me, and I whipped him to the ground.“Anyone who stands in my way will die!” I shouted.The rest of the guards were afraid to move.My horse got faster and faster, and soon I was back

    Nuri’s POVIt's morning.The winter sun shone through the clouds on my face and gave it a golden glow.But I was very serious at the moment, showing a cold air.I stood at the Palace Gate, which was slowly being opened by two guards."Sir, Rodriguez, this way, please. The King and Queen are waiting for you."I snorted and followed the guard.The palace today is so quiet that there is not a single servant passing by. The early morning sun had not yet warmed the world, and the bare branches and dark blue cloudless sky still gave a sense of chill.I walked along the Central Street of the palace, across a square, and came to a tall tower in the middle of the palace.The nine-story tower is the tallest building in the whole capital. Important ceremonies concerning the royal family, such as the coronation of the king, are held here. Officials and nobles stood in the square looking up at the royal family standing on the balcony of the tower and cheering and kneeling to them.The tower is a s

Doyle and the king lay on the ground, dark red blood running from their bodies like a giant rose in full bloom.I looked up and the Queen was curled up on the ground in pain. Her severed arm was bleeding, and in her other hand she held a bloody dagger.My blood is on the dagger.Her hair was messy and dirty, and she gritted her teeth and tried to crawl in my direction."You... You're all going to die!"I was still clinging to a piece of floor protruding from the balcony with my injured arm. I felt my arm go numb, as if it would leave my body at any moment."Sibyl... Doyle..." I bellowed, grabbed an unbroken railing in the same hand that had held Doyle, and leaped hard back onto the balcony."Ha ha ha ha, he's dead. Sibyl will hate you. Even if you kill me today, you lose," the queen shouted hysterically.I looked at her

I looked at Dalena and Amy in disbelief and cried, "My baby?""Yes, your Grace." Amy hugged me. "The Rodrigues will have an heir.""But... but I don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl.""It doesn't matter." Amy looked at me, "Whether it's a boy or a girl, Sir Rodrigue will love him or her very much. Your children are all heirs to the Rodrigue family, and they all have the right of inheritance and carry on the family honor. You have to believe that even if you have a daughter, Sir Rodrigue will raise her to be a general, better than any man in the country."Amy's words made me laugh through my tears. Yes, boys and girls, they will be the apple of Nuri's eye.Dalena, however, was not as happy as Amy, as if she were worried about something troublesome."Auntie, what are you worried about? Is it because I am too weak that

    Sibyl’s POVBefore I know it, time is running out like a river. My two children, who began as finger-sucking babies in cradles, can now run around the palace. Perhaps they inherited Nuri's strong physique, and even the quiet little princess Terese was full of energy. The wet nurses had run to follow her but she was not tired at all.Today, after breakfast, I caught them trying to sneak out again."Sit your asses down!" I said sternly.The two little ones made faces and sat back in their chairs.Unexpectedly, the child's father suddenly protested. "Children are young. They are at an active age now. Why should you restrain them?""Have you forgotten what day it is?""What day?" asked Nuri, doubtfully, putting down her cup.I knew it! I took a plate of peeled grapes from him and said, "Selene and Lowa are coming to visit us today. Lowa is bringing her little girl!"Shortly after my children were born, Lowa returned to Werebird kingdom with Manolo. Within two months of their return, I rec

He immediately declared the young prince, Baron, a crown prince and gave him an estate. However, he is still young and currently lives with his sister in a bedroom in my palace.In order to take care of the two children, Nuri arranged for each of them to have three wet nurses and eight maids. He had even begun to think about their playmates.Carol was even more excited to see them every day. She came in the morning as soon as the sun rose, and left reluctantly after dinner.Now all eyes are on the two children."Our Baron and Terese are very popular. Whose credit is that?"Nuri rocked the cradle and looked at me like a big dog with a face full of praise! I couldn't bear to watch. I picked up Terese, who was munching her fingers, and kissed her soft, white, meaty face."Little Terese, who is your mommy?"The little guy looked at me in a daze and sudd

His hands were tugging at Nuri's, blood gushing from his mouth, but he did not stop, calling the Queen's name again and again.Beowulf pounced. His broken arm was flailing feebly in the air, and Nuri dropped Blayze to avoid his attack. I climbed over and pulled Blayze aside to sit against the wall."How could she be Azariah? Didn't she die in prison?"Blayze didn't answer my question. He didn't even look at me. He just stubbornly called out the Queen's name. Does this really work? Can we wake the king?"Nuri, wake up! Sibyl is unconscious because of you. She is pregnant with your child! She almost died because of you!" Bellowed Beowulf as he dodged Nuri's attack, shouting Sibyl's name along with Blayze. Tears blurred my vision. I wiped my face and joined them loudly.May the gods protect us. The love between the King and Queen could be the antidote to this disaster.For a moment, the council chamber was filled wit

    Selene’s POVThe whole palace was in disarray. The doctors were all called in, and the maids went in and out like ants on a hot pan. Everyone was scrambling to do something, but they didn't know which way to go, because the only hostess was still lying in bed, unconscious."Stay calm. You are all trained. Follow the rules." Nuri's grandmother's voice rose into the night, suppressing the panic. She took the maid's hand and got down from the carriage. She glanced at the maids and the doctors, and everyone she saw lowered their heads."We don't need so many doctors. Those who are not good at delivering babies can go home."When she had finished, some of the doctors, after a moment's hesitation, came forward, saluted, and hurried off.“Amy, divide the maids into three groups. One group will prepare hot water, the other will clean up the delivery room, and the last group will serve the empress at any time. If anything goes wrong, the person-in-charge will be punished!”Amy hurried to assig

The stars twinkled in the sky like jewels on a dress."Maybe the moon is too beautiful tonight. I don't want to spoil my mood."Many innocent souls stayed in the palace. Every brick and tile was soaked in blood, and I did not want to add to it any more.The maid thought she was going to die, too. She closed her eyes and waited for the poison to attack, only to find that the pain she had imagined for a long time had not come. She slowly opened her eyes tentatively and looked at me hesitantly."Ah..." when she opened her mouth to speak, she found herself unable to make a sound."I took your voice," I motioned to Amy with my eyes. Amy handed her a bag of gold coins. "This is my compensation to you. I will still keep my promise to you. You can leave the palace tonight. I will let you continue your life as a commoner."With t

    Sibyl’s POVThe evening party went on as planned. On the rows of brass candlesticks, carefully carved candles burned brightly, illuminating the faces of each visitor. The scent of ladies' perfumes filled the air, and expensive jewelry glowed in the owner's hair, earlobes, and neck. Everyone smiled and complimented each other."What an elegant crowd." I stood in the shade outside the door and looked at the nobles in the ballroom. "If I hadn't seen the fierce faces of the jealous ladies and the greed of the men in calculating the wealth of the common people, if I hadn't seen the despicable ways in which ministers use their power to do evil," I paused, i turned to Amy. "This is heaven, isn't it?"Amy looked at me in silence, and I knew the question frightened her. How can the nobles be so easily judged? Most people would think so. Nuri still had a long way to go. If he did not change the concept that everyone feared the nobles as much as the gods, the new nobles that he supported now wou

    Sibyl’s POVLowa shifts into a giant bird. I sat on her back and soon saw Aphrodite's palace. With no intention of slowing down, she dived straight for the palace door, causing the maids at the door to scream. I walked to the door with a sullen face. Lowa shaved her feathers and shifted back to being a sexy lady.Not surprisingly, there was another shriek from the maids, and several of them had collapsed to the ground. I saw a familiar face among the maids, whose name I can't quite remember, Anna or something. On Aphrodite's first day at court, I met the maid.She's not doing very well. No, rather badly. She was not a pretty girl, but she was impressive, and now her hair was as yellow as a weed, and her figure was unusually dry. The once beautiful eyes also lost their love of life like a pool of stagnant water.She felt my gaze and looked up at me quickly. Her eyes sparkled, but soon became dull. She changed in an instant. When I blinked and looked at her again, she was still lifeless

    Sibyl’s POV"Nuri is exaggerating." Selene looked at the room full of clothes and sighed. "So many clothes. Even if there were a few more of you, you would never wear them all!"I looked at the rows of clothes, heart half sweet half trouble. Nuri is in love with me, but, as my sister said, I really do not have time to wear every piece of clothing again. Looking at so many beautiful clothes that I have no chance to wear them, it makes me feel very wasteful."These are all new. Do you like any of them? If you don't mind, just take the ones you like!" I said to Selene. When Lowa heard this, her face darkened and she looked at me angrily. "You have a real sister, and have you forgotten about me? You are so biased!"Selene looked at me awkwardly, worried that something might happen between me and Lowa, and I patted her hand. I smiled at her and said, "She's just kidding!" I turned to Lowa and rolled my eyes at her. "Why are you teasing her? Come on, I'll give you all the clothes in this ro

    Nuri’s POV"What's all this?" Beowulf asked as he casually flipped through the notes on my desk. He gave me a smirk. I looked down and coughed."How come I don't remember us getting so close?" His tone was too casual and intimate, as if we had known each other for more than a decade, which made me very uncomfortable. He is the king of the land of the Bears. While I respect him as a hero, that doesn't mean my social distance from him can become intimate. But he didn't seem to feel that way at all."My wife is your wife's sister, and we are brothers, a family! We know each other like the back of my hand!" He took another book from the shelf, he exclaimed, "I always thought that you were an ambitious hero. You spent all your energy on running the country. I can't imagine that you're actually a nanny!"My bookshelf is lined with books on children, medical and educational, from infants to teenagers. On the desk are several thick notes that I have made.
