2024-07-01 12:37:21"Good morning, my dear queen," Allen greeted as he stepped into the office, closing the doors behind him.
"Speak," she said, lifting her head to address Allen.
"Queen Mother's assistant called this morning to inform us that the queen mother has appointed the great sword master, Tang, as a personal trainer for Princess Alina, as she has shown a keen interest in sword fighting," Allen reported.
Queen Elizabeth responded with a smile. "Mother dotes on her far too much. It's good to hear that she's taking an interest in something useful."
Allen smiled, thinking of the spirited princess.
“Continue,” the queen said after that.
Taking a deep breath, Allen continued in a serious tone, "The expert we invited to treat King Edward has says that there is nothing more he can do. We can only pray to the gods for his recovery."
Elizabeth let out a sigh, rising from her seat and approaching the window for some fresh air. "This is the third person this year stating the same words," she noted wearily.
Allen lowered his head slightly, then continued, speaking a bit hesitantly "And..."
Elizabeth inquired without turning around, "And what?"
"I have informed Alexander that you are summoning them all back for the Princess's death anniversary," Allen explained. "He has assured me that they will all return in time."
Hearing this Elizabeth became completely silent. No one could tell what she was feeling by looking at her expressionless face but if someone looked deeply at her eyes they could see the sadness and guilt lingering in them.
"Very well. Attend to the preparations," she finally uttered.
With a bow, Allen replied, "Yes, my Queen," before taking his leave. Left alone, the queen sank back into her leather chair, her gaze fixed on the ceiling lost in her thoughts.
In the land of humans...
"Have you finished all your admission paperwork?" Liam inquired Lea as they made their way back to class.
At the mention of paperwork, Lea halted in her tracks. "Oh, I completely forgot. I need to sign a few papers at the admin block today to get my ID."
"I'll join you in a bit. You go ahead," Lea attempted to head towards the admin block, but Liam intervened.
"Wait... The freshmen will have formed a long line by now. It'll take the whole day just for that one task," Liam reasoned. "I know someone there; we'll get it done quickly."
"But the class—" Lea began, but Liam cut her off.
"It's just the second day. Not much is happening in class, and this is the least I can do to show my gratitude for your help and for forgiving me," Liam insisted.
"Lea, let him come with you. It'll be faster," Rayan chimed in.
After a moment of consideration, Lea relented. Together, she and Liam headed towards the admin block, while the others returned to class.
At the admin block...
"Finally done. So exhausting! Now I won't have time for lunch, and class starts soon," a tired and irritated-looking guy exited the admission office, clearly a bookish type with his neatly pressed attire, buttoned-up shirt, transparent glasses, and meticulously combed hair.
Seeing him grumble to himself, Lea couldn't help but laugh.
Startled by her laughter, the guy turned towards her with surprise, and then approached. "Hey, Lea!" he greeted, adjusting his glasses with a broad smile.
"Hi, Will. Good to see you," Lea replied with a smile. "Looks like someone isn't thrilled about stepping out of their comfort zone."
"Not at all. Been in line since morning to get this paperwork done, and it took ages. I'm just annoyed thinking about how much I could've accomplished in that time," William vented.

"Are you done with yours? If not, I pity you. The line's moving at a snail's pace," Will added."There is no need for you to worry about that" Liam, who had been overlooked until then, spoke up.Startled, Will turned towards him. Feeling a twinge of guilt for neglecting Liam, Lea shot him an apologetic glance, which he acknowledged with a smile and a blink.Without delay, she introduced them. "Will, meet Liam, my classmate. Liam, this is William, my brother's best friend's younger brother."After a brief exchange, both men nodded and exchanged handshakes.Suddenly, Will checked his watch, speaking hurriedly. "Look at the time! I'm late for class again. Can't afford to miss another one," he exclaimed, giving Lea a quick hug and bidding Liam farewell before dashing off to complete his task.For some reason, Liam felt a pang of discomfort seeing Will hug Lea. He couldn't quite explain the surge of irritation towards Will or the feeling of being overlooked. It puzzled him. His reverie was

"Why? You don't like it?" Liam asked with a frown on his face. "Have you looked around you? For the past some time when we were standing near the admin block all the girls around have been throwing daggers at me. It's like they want to strangle me to death given the chance," Lea said with a small smile on her face. Hearing her words Liam just started laughing as they walked toward the class. The corridor was empty as it was near the library and it was almost time for class. "Hearing him laugh Lea stopped walking and said, what are you laughing at ha? I am just stating the truth here. Do you know how difficult it was for me to keep myself composed till now?" Lea added. Liam stopped laughing moved closer to her and looked directly into her blue eyes which were as deep as the ocean for a few seconds and asked her "So you think I am attractive?" with a smile on his face. Lea gulped in some saliva at the proximity at which they were standing. His masculine scent mixed with a flavor o

"Yeah," Liam chuckled. "I know it sounds silly. I was five years old, when I came here for the first time with my father and uncle. I was so fascinated by the cars that I wanted to drive like the others on the track. When I asked my father if I could, he obviously said no...""I started throwing a tantrum, and despite my uncle and father tried to consoling me but after some time my father got irritated and scolded me. It was the first time he'd ever scolded me, and I was overwhelmed with sadness and anger, so I just dashed into the woods.""I don't know for how long I was in there, I just ran and ran, and then when I finally got tired, I stopped and sat on a rock. I realized that I was lost. I did not know what to do or where to go, so I just started roaming around the woods to find my way out.""Wow... you were really brave for a five-year-old, not sitting in the corner and crying when you got lost in the woods," Lea commented."If you say so," Liam replied with a small laugh."So the

Back to the Present"I did not understand his words about the lap timings and all then, but I remembered every word he had told me. After a few years as I grew up, all he had said started to make sense, and I worked hard every day towards it until I achieved it three years ago," Liam said."Then your uncle must be really proud of you, right?" Lea asked.After a few seconds of silence, Liam said, "He would have been if he could see me now, but…""What happened, Liam?" Lea asked."A few years ago, he met with an accident, and since then, he has been in a coma. All the doctors have given up hope of him waking up," Liam said."I... I am sorry... I didn't know," Lea stammered, hearing the information shared with her."It's okay, it is all in the past now. Don't burden yourself with this. I just got a bit emotional coming back to this place," Liam comforted Lea.Lea gave him a reassuring smile in return.Lea did not k

FlashbackHeavy winds blew, while it was raining heavily when thunder and lightning struck the ground, and Elisabeth was screaming with pain as her water broke. Her husband Edward was walking back and front outside the room when he felt his heart was being stabbed with a knife hearing his wife's painful screams. When suddenly it stopped, he heard a baby cry and then another one after 2 minutes.As the sounds of the two babies crying chimed in the air "Winds that blow so heavily, the thunder, lightning, and rain everything stopped. The clouds disappeared and the sun started to shine brightly.”The man stood there rooted to his spot like a statue when he heard the sound of the babies crying.

“Sorry if my words sounded bad, it was genuine curiosity,” Kira said faking innocence.At this moment Liam answered, “I am like what I am to others because they are nobody to me but Lea is part of us now so obviously I will treat her differently”.“This is some friendship that grew so strong in such a short time,” Kira said.Listening to her words Liam’s face darkened with anger and others were not any better.He was about to lash out but before that Tressa intervened.“Okay, that’s enough Kira” Tressa said acting as if she was trying to stop her.“But babe…” Kira tried to speak to Tressa but was stopped by the glare given by Tressa.“I said enough,” Tressa said after which Kira bowed down her head.Then she turned towards Lea and others as she said “I am really sorry for what just happened, she was just a bit angry looking at Liam with another girl when our parents were discussing getting us engaged”.“What?” all of them exclaimed at the same time.“What the hell are you speaking?” Li

Once Tressa reached an isolated corridor she screamed "I have done everything I could all these years but why does he not like me? First, it was that cousin of mine who had all his attention, and now this Lea. What do they have in them that I don't... I just hate them..."."How did those People let Lea into their group so easily? I have always been so nice to them all these years but they never speak to me the way they speak to her" she mumbled to herself softly "She is just a commoner...""Does he behave the way he does with Lea only because she has the same eyes as my cousin'"Babe get a hold of yourself," Kria said as she shook her shoulders lightly.Looking at Kira standing in front of her, Tressa just hugged her and started crying as Kira tried to console her "Babe get a hold of yourself, this Lea is just a distraction for him... even he knows they both can't have any future together""Our rules won't agree for their union even if he falls in

"Okay then let me call Lea as well if she is free," Liam said as he got up with his phone."Lea?" Sharen asked."Ho yes, she joined our college this year. She is a really nice person you will also like her for sure" Ria answered Sharen as Liam walked towards the side to make the call."Yes I heard about her from Alex but I was just a bit surprised seeing Liam taking the initiative to call a girl whom he just met a few days ago," Sharen said."If you are surprised just because of this then you would be shocked seeing the way he behaves around her," Alex said."But she is just…"Before Sharen could complete her question Rayen answered her "He thinks that she might be Aisha""What?

"That's why he's been so invested in finding out the truth."“How can you guys let him continue this stupidity? How can she a

Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 121
The Queen Zenobia was still a princess when she got engaged to the Crown Prince of Alynthia, Richard Beaufort, but Ernest did not like it.He and the Queen were childhood friends, if I have to be truthful he had no other friends other than her.They grew up side by side in the quiet gardens and sunlit corridors of the palace, sharing secrets and laughter beneath the shade of old olive trees. Ernest, the son of the royal falconer, had always trailed behind her like a loyal shadow. He was kind, clever in his own rough-edged way, and he adored her—utterly and silently. But his place was always at her side, never in her world.Zenobia, on the other hand, had never seen him as anything more than her closest companion. Her confidant. Her safe place in a world that often felt too heavy for someone so young. She cared for him, deeply. But not in the way he hoped and she never pretended otherwise.When she met Richard Beaufort, everything changed.She
Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 120
Not having the heart to scold Elena Master Kai Von turned to Liam as he breathed him “You brat why did you not inform me as soon as my dear disciple woke up?” Liam blinked, caught off guard by the sudden shift in attention “She just woke up,” he defended, raising his hands slightly “I was going to tell you, but then… well, we were talking and—”“Talking?” Master Kai’s voice lifted incredulously as he stood and turned to fully face him, his eyes narrowing with something between suspicion and fatherly protectiveness “Talking about what, exactly?”Liam opened his mouth, then closed it, cheeks flushing a bit “Just… some important things.”Kai narrowed his eyes further, clearly not buying it “Did not you tell you had dossed of, that’s why it got so late for you to open the door just now?”Liam blinked wide eyed, caught up in his own lies not know

Her eyes shimmered as she looked up at him, one hand slowly lifting to rest over the one still cradling her cheek “You’re not angry?” she asked, her voice a fragile whisper.Liam shook his head slowly “No,” he said simply, his gaze steady “I was scared. Worried. But not angry” He hesitated, then added, “I don’t need to know everything right away, Elena. I just need to know you. And I do.”His words struck something deep inside her, a place that had always braced for rejection, for suspicion, for betrayal—never for acceptance. Never for this.Elena closed her eyes for a moment, breathing him in—the steadiness of him, the strength he gave her without asking anything in return. When she opened them again, her voice was steadier “I don’t deserve this,” she said quietly.Liam frowned, not harshly, but like he hated hearing her say it “Don’t do that,” he

Elena breathed, each shaky inhale slowly growing steadier as Liam held her. His hand moved gently up and down her back, slow and grounding, letting her feel the rhythm of life—the simple, steady beat of being here, being safe.When the worst of the tremors passed, Liam shifted slightly, glancing down at her “You should rest a little more," he said softly, brushing a few strands of hair from her damp forehead "I’ll call Master Kai Von, just to make sure you’re okay as you have been unconscious for three days now."But the moment he started to move, Elena's arms tightened around him in a panic, her fingers curling into the fabric of his shirt like a lifeline “No,” she whispered sharply, her voice trembling but sure “Don’t go. Please... stay.”Liam froze, feeling the raw desperation in her voice, in the way she clung to him like he was the only solid thing left in a crumbling world. His heart twisted painfully at the thought of leaving her, even for a second.He let out a quiet, resigned

"Over my dead body," Richard snarled.Ernest’s smile widened cruelly "That my plan exactly."At Ernest’s signal, the cloaked men surged forward like a black tide.Richard rose, one arm still around Zenobia, and drew his sword in one swift motion, the steel catching the faint light of the enchanted forest.They clashed with a deafening ring of steel.Richard fought like a man possessed, fuelled by love and rage, his blade a silver blur. He felled two of the men quickly, moving with deadly grace—but there were too many, and he was alone.A sword slashed across his side—he staggered but didn’t fall.Another cut along his arm—his grip tightened stubbornly around his sword. Blood darkened his tunic, dripping into the moss, but Richard fought on, each movement slower, heavier.He could feel his strength leaving him. Zenobia was still unconscious on the grass behind him, unaware of the battle raging
Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 116
A soft golden mist swirled around Elena, wrapping her in warmth and a strange sense of peace. She wasn’t sure where she was—but everything around her felt too vivid, too alive to be anything but real.She stood at the edge of an enchanted forest, where the trees rose high into the sky, their branches weaved with sparkling silver vines and glowing flowers that pulsed gently like stars. The air shimmered with magic, and the ground beneath her bare feet was soft, like moss spun from dreams.Laughter echoed through the woods—bright, musical, carefree.Ahead, a girl darted between the trees, her hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of dark silk. She wore a flowing white dress that fluttered like butterfly wings as she ran.Elena blinked in shock.The girl... looked exactly like her, but not quite.There was something different. An old-world grace to her movements, a wild, ancient light in her eyes."Zenobia!" cam

"There is only one person who might hold the key to this tangled truth," he said. His gaze locked onto Alisha’s, unwavering one "Your father, Edward."Alisha stiffened, a sharp breath tearing from her lips "My father…" she whispered, her mind already spiralling "But... he's been in a coma ever since—since that day."Master Kai nodded solemnly "I know. Ever since the accident where you lost Aisha, Edward has been trapped between life and death. His mind remains sealed. Even I have tried everything know but nothing has been able to bring him back."Henry looked away, his face shadowed with guilt and sorrow. Alisha pressed a trembling hand to her mouth, her eyes shining with unshed tears."But if he were awake," Master Kai pressed on, "he could tell us what truly happened that day after they fell of the cliff, where did that bright light appeared from and why he did not use his power to fly back up. The only one who may have seen... what n

Elizabeth stared at him, disbelieving “What... did you just say?” she breathed, her voice dangerously low “You want to deny the evidence in front of you?”Henry didn’t flinch under her gaze. His face was grim, almost resigned “Yes its true Elena is my adopted daughter and I understand the DNA test results you brought here," he said slowly, "but it can’t be true because I found Elena a year before you lost Aisha…”Elizabeth felt the ground sway beneath her feet."No…" she said, her voice cracking, her hands trembling at her sides "No, that's not possible."Henry nodded grimly "I found Elena when I went to perform the last rights for Diana and dispose her ashes in the river — you know exactly when Diana died due to that accident during the childbirth.Elena was just three years old when I found her, she had no memories, no family... nothing, just lying unconscious on the banks of the

As Alisha stepped out of the portal Elizabeth stood there waiting for her.Elizabeth stepped forward and gave a small hug before pulling away “How are you doing?”Alisha just gave a small smile at this question as she said “I am doing okay mom…” and squeezed Elizabeth’s hands that she was holding “How is Elena doing?”Elizabeth’s face tightened slightly. She pressed her lips into a thin line before answering "Her condition is stable now... but she hasn't regained consciousness yet."Alisha nodded, worry flickering in her eyes. She hesitated a second before speaking again, her voice dropping a little."Anyway... I needed to speak with you. Can we go somewhere private?"Elizabeth’s gaze sharpened at that, sensing the weight behind Alisha’s request. Without asking further, she gave a small nod and gestured for Alisha to follow her down a quieter hallway, away from the open court
