Izabella turned around when she saw Aleksander appear. "What are you doing here?" She hissed. She was showing him that she was not happy to see him. "Hey..." He said in a low voice. "What's wrong with you? Don't tell me you're mad at me. I've been searching for you for more than a week now." "Izabella squeezed the hand that was holding her arm. "Aya, the doctor taking care of her, told me everything. An Earthling scientist saved her at the edge of dying…." "And the baby?" Prince Dreksil asked, looking at her. "Don't worry. It's safe, according to Aya..." Prince Dreksil nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. "Wait a minute," Izabella interrupted. "How did you know my condition?" "Iza, we have spies around there," Dax explained. "We were updated. Anyway, I guess you need to be alone. And I hope you patch up everything between you. I'll go and see Aya…." Dax said and went out the door. "Iza-" "Who are you?" Izabella said in a firm voice. He blamed the man for what happened to her
Dax grinned broadly as he walked in, and his eyes examined Izabella's hand. The clothes she was wearing caught his attention, a hospital gown. "So, you got your ring back..." He sighed in apparent relief. Prince Dreksil did as Dax said and examined Izabella's hand. "Hmm." He seemed pleased with what she had accomplished and nodded as if to affirm that she could move an object. "Maybe there's something else you can do." "It was Dax who showed me how to do it," Izabella said—and sent a cheery glance at the young prince. "Are you positive it was him?" Prince Dreksil retched forth some obscene words. "So, I did nothing?" Izabella's gaze met the Prince of Chronos eyes. Although his outward appearance was undoubtedly appealing, Aleksander's face she longed to gaze at. There was a void in her life that he filled. "Are you saying I can't see Aleksander at this location?" Immediately, a furrow formed in her temple. Her dissatisfaction was apparent. Prince Dreksil confirmed his identity,
Prince Dreksil saw the scientist's face flash with dread for an instant before going blank.I doubt you fully comprehend the significance of what you just said, Your Highness. You shouldn't feel that way because it makes you appear weak and unfit to manage your Empire."Keep going. Please elaborate..."This is the first in vitro fertilized offspring of a human and a member of your species. Your opponents, the scientific community, would appreciate your research into her."Is that why you left her behind in the human realm?"He saw that she had turned pale."No. That was completely out of my hands. I felt like a prisoner. No one here will let me out of here.""And whose command?"Her head shook,' Please. I would prefer not to address, Your Highness.""Is it your expectation, Dr. Jones, that I arrive here empty-handed?"There was no reply."Is the twin sister, a half-human, still alive, known to the king?"He heard her gasp, and he spun around to face her. Prince Dreksil stopped walking
The surrounding lights suddenly dimmed as they stood, and Prince Dreksil arrived.Why do you have that suspicious look on your face?" Dax noted the prince's glare, which shifted between him and Izabella."Why is your arm resting on Izabella's back?"Dax chuckled, looked at her briefly, then back at him. "I was merely demonstrating the hall dance for Iza. You know she should know our practice..."Izabella began to feel better and eventually stopped resting on Dax's chest of her own will.She swore at the prince, "We're not doing anything, so quit with your jealousy.""Jealousy? Huh?" The Royal prince scowled. "Is it possible I'm envious of him?Dax shook his head, listening to the pair, "Your Highness, you have no reason to be jealous. You should know that she's my sister.""What did you say?" Stunned, Izabella questioned him."Oh! Sorry about that. When I stated you were like a sister to me, I messed up," he laughed. "I'm sure Prince Drexil would approve."Izabella glanced at her husb
A shadow fell across Prince Dreksil's back as he sat at the entrance to the spaceship he was protecting. He knew the three women onboard the space shuttle had just finished eating."Dax, what brings you here? He questioned without turning around."Just checking what's up here. What are you doing out here?" Dax chuckled as he took up space beside him and replied in kind.'My thoughts have been wandering out into the expanse of the galaxy from time to time. And I was listening to the girls' tidbits.""Oh. That's something new. I thought she miscommunicated you.""Izabella's fine enjoying tidbits with the girls.""Have you eaten?" Dax inquired."Yeah. Marlo brought food, and I ate out here with Marlo. He just left, "Prince Dreksil turned his gaze to the little prince. "Can I get you anything?""No, but I appreciate that you thought of that. When I spotted the two of you earlier, I abandoned my mission to follow you and returned to my duties."Did today's events make your father angry?" H
Karylla stepped out of the shadows and fixed them with her vengeful gaze. The young woman watched as Prince Dreksil reached out and grabbed Izabella's hand.Hissing violently, she said, "So it's true that the Grisean outward informed me that they spotted the earthling with you. What were you thinking, Dreksil?"The Prince whispered, "Calm down, Karylla. I don't want to make you mad. It's not good for the unborn.""Forget it! I want her gone!" she yelled.Izabella sat still, her eyes fixed on the woman. Karylla's ire for her was palpable. That was incomprehensible because the woman saved her life when Felix attempted to abduct her."You knew she was my wife, so I'm sorry her presence offended you.'"Not in this world, she isn't. Put her back where she came from, or I'll murder you both!"In a chilling retort, "And I'll get her back," Prince Dreksil promised. "And I'll station you in the absolute darkness of this place. Like you did when you put her in that jet and tried to force her t
With a disturbed emotion, Prince Dreksil went to where Izabella was sleeping.Izabella's frail voice uttered, "Hey..." She gazed at his face intently, never taking her gaze off it. She realized he was pondering something serious. "Dreksil..."When the Prince heard his name, he immediately cleared his face, and a smile spread across his features. When he saw Izabella, he rushed to be by her side.Jokingly, he remarked, "You seemed to be improving where your loyalty should be." His hand held hers."How can you explain that?" Izabella assured him, "I am always on your side."He remarked, "I adore hearing my name on your lips." He traced the outline of her lips with his finger. My emotions are so happy right now."She gave him a knowing gaze, laughed softly, and sat up."You shouldn't be up," Prince Dreksil said. "You were running a high fever and finally over it, but you need rest.""But I'm perfectly alright," she protested. "I really can't sleep in any longer.""But that's exactly what
"Dax, do you know why your dad's first attaché is going in this direction?" Prince Dreksil asked with a furrowed brow. He watched a skinny tall man wearing an eyeglass in his military uniform.At his statement, Dax turned around."No, don't show yourself," Prince Dreksil stopped him. "Let's find out what he wanted here, but I hope it's not Izabella.""I don't think so..." Dax said.Prince Dreksil said, "Come on, this way..."And the eyes of the two princes followed the first attaché as the steps continued in the direction of Dr. Jones's office."May I have your attention, Dr. Jones?" He said when he spotted her before she could get into her office. "I would like to inform you that His Majesty requested your appearance before him and the IVF files." The female scientist nodded politely."I will wait for you in the car...""As you wish, Your Honor," she replied.Prince Dreksil and Dax looked at each other."Let's check on my wife. Maybe she can be taken out already. I don't trust tha
