The King was asthmatic and the dust did nothing but to worsen the situation. He started breathing with difficulty and in no time he fainted. Justin, who was supporting him all this time, had to catch the king from falling.

" Father!" He shouted. Panick painting his face. He could not let anything happen to the king.

He kept shaking the King, prompting him to wake up but the King was unresponsive.

Nikolai, who was closely following the duo, stepped ahead and tried feeling the king's breathing by bringing his finger near the king's nose.

" He is still breathing, let's hurry up. We are almost at the exit,he can be saved." Nikolai urged the man. Without waiting for another word, Justin lifted the King and was helped by Nikolai to put him on his back. The path was already crumpled,so with Justin carrying the King,it proved to be hard. But he was determined to get him to the hospital. He couldn't let his woman lose her father yet. Besides, the king raised him for years and made him whoever

    " The one and only." The man replied with a grin. To say that Justin was shocked would be an understatement,he was beyond shocked. He felt like his brain was being fried in hot oil and his eyes probably covered with fog. He got to be dreaming. Peter was the last person he ever expected to betray the King. Even Nikolai was surprised by that revelation.This was the man the King trusted with his security. He was the head of security in the castle and the king's senior most bodyguard.Seeing the shocked expression on Justin's face, Peter was very much pleased with himself." You don't believe it, don't you, your highness?.. Oops! Sorry you are now longer eligible for that title. You are nothing but a pauper in the eyes of that stubborn Old Man. A chess piece in his Game just like how he treated us." The man said tauntingly. His words were full of malice and bitterness." The King trusted you... You were like a brother to him. He never treated you as a servant..." Justin tried pointing so

    " And who the hell do you think you are to barge here without any ounce of respect?" Daniel was beyond angry. He hated it when someone interrupted his fun moments. His eyes were spitting fireballs, literally, threatening to burn the intruder alive." You are very ignorant Mr Morgan," the person said chuckling evilly," the last person who asked me Such a stupid question is yet to be found.. and do you know why?" He paused dramatically," because I fed him to the whales and sharks in the sea." The voice was dangerous,dark and sinister as if it came from the depths of hell carrying with itself all the evilness.Daniel was slightly taken aback, only few people could talk to him that way. The first one was Miranda Lambert and the other was the legendary mafia Boss and CEO of Johnston company. Of Course,he never had the chance to see the second person so how would he know if this was him. But the Aura emanating from his body was oppressive, forcing someone to bow and give in. It was not some

    "It's good that you know. Hump!" Lucia said and Kiel's lips twitched. But what could he do? He could only endure this suffering if he wanted to be a part of his child's life. He loved her, despite their weird relationship. He went against his family for her. He refused the arranged marriage with the daughter of a wealthy man just to stay loyal to her. In this Life, he swore that she will be the only woman he will ever have. She will be the mother to his children and his only wife." Yeah,I know all that. Can we go home now,I'll cook for you delicious food." Kiel tried forcing her even More. Lucia's eyes lit up when she heard of the delicious food.

    "Yeah.. if a Man doesn't feel anything for you, leave alone following you,he won't even have time to look at you. You are a wise lady,you should take this chance before it's too late." Miranda advised." But.. he already has a fiancee." Stacy said in almost a whisper." So just because he has a fiance you are giving up? He still had a fiance when he was following you all the way from abroad. The fiance was still there when he was sticking to you every minute. I can't believe how slow witted you've turned to be after falling in love. If your father knows this, he'll surely disown you after breaking your bones." Miranda said, aggrieved. Never in a million times did she ever think she'll be the one giving advice to her friend." Okay,I get you.. it doesn't matter if he's engaged or not. As long as he's not married,I still have a chance. Don't worry, after we settle everything here,I'll go back and woo him." Stacy said finally feeling enlightened. She would not give up without trying. If

He will live for his elder brother.Miranda didn't know whether to laugh or celebrate. This was not what she expected from Justin. She'l thought he will be broken and she will have to do anything to make him recover from the loss. But now,it was Justin pacifying her and consoling her. She was quite useless."

    " What's wrong with him? He's so grumpy like an old man this early morning!" Justin murmured to Ava, trying to avoid Ronald from hearing their conversation." Don't mind him, he's in his periods." Ava said with a straight face making Justin choke on his saliva. Ofcourse, Ronald heard the whole conversation and he could only cry silently.' Who between them was on their periods?

    Stacy walked with measured steps,her head held up high. The whole hall was as quiet as a grave as she made her way to the front. Her eyes were kept on the man at the end of the podium. She was keen on observing any micro expression from his face. Ofcourse, she did miss how his face lit up after he saw her. She smiled at him sweetly and Gabriel stiffened. It was the first time she smiled at him so she understood his reaction. She couldn't help but blame herself for not treasuring him before and letting go. She should have chased after him or better yet,not taken long before coming to find him. They say that you understand the value of some things in your life after it has been taken away.

    After the glaring contest ended, Justin helped Ezekiel to the house. They all sat on the couches and silence reigned in the house. No one said anything, nothing could be said either way." Now that we have found Ezekiel,I think we should leave the couple alone. I am sure they have a lot to say to each other." Miranda finally proposed and they all agreed. Minutes later, only Ezekiel and Lucia remained in the house." Why honey. Why didn't you tell me?" Lucia tried to gather her composure and try not to break down in front of Ezekiel. At this point,she understood that he needed her support more than ever." I thought this is the best way to not burden you. I knew that I would lose my eyesight anytime soon.

Seeing that she was pregnant and knew nothing about his condition,he decided to keep it a secret from her. He then urged him to break the news to her because according to his diagnosis,he barely had two months to live. Ezekiel assured him that he would definitely discuss the matter with Lucia and thanked him yet again before leaving to Join Lucia who was waiting for him in the waiting lobby." That took you a long time to just say thank you." Lucia commented. He had been gone for fifteen minutes which according to her was a long time for just a thank you." He was occupied and I had to wait for him." Ezekiel replied casually trying to keep a straight face. Lucia didn't probe further and dropped the topic. She was so exhausted and jet lagged that she went to bed immediately after they got home.After ensuring that she was asleep, Ezekiel took his phone and went to

    The following morning, Ezekiel was the first to wake up. By the time Lucia woke up,she found Ezekiel ready with two packed suitcases." Good morning my Queen." Ezekiel greeted pecking her lips." Morning." Lucia replied, eyeing him then added," going somewhere?" She inquired. Yesterday,he didn't mention going anywhere. What was more surprising was the fact that one of the suitcases belonged to her." Yes,we are going somewhere." Ezekiel replied with a smile on his face. After last night,he figured out that before going to meet his maker,he might as well fulfil some of the wishes piled up. He had always wanted to tour the world with the woman he loved. He still had like three weeks before completely losing his sight,he might as well take advantage of that available time and fulfil that wish." You didn't mention something about that yesterday!" Lucia stated." I decided on it overnight. I want to take you on a vacation as we tour the world together. After this month,I'll be busy with c

    Lucia had this unsettling feeling that something was up with Ezekiel but she couldn't say what exactly. How did she know? His frequent out of mind moments. She had caught him staring at her with pity filled eyes. Sometimes,his expressions would spell sorry. She couldn't quite understand why he looked sorry towards her.Pushing those thoughts at the back of her mind,she decided to go prepare something for him to eat once he woke up. He had been the one taking care of her all these days so while he rested, she figured out she should return the favour. Another reason was because she had noticed that his body was declining and his appetite poor. These days,he hardly eats anything and would always say he's full. That was alarming according to LuciaShe cooked his favourite chicken rice and veggies. She didn't forget to prepare pumpkin soup which was known for increasing appetite.Evening came and Kiel had slept for six good hours, something that added more to Lucia's suspicion. Despite how
