The next morning, the sunlight slinked into the spacious room which belongs to the king and settled its rays on the naked body of the young woman who was snoozing softly on the king's bed. Abruptly, Eleanor fluttered her eyes open but her eyelids were still heavy, she deeply sighed as she turns her face to the other side of the room so that the sun won't continuously keep shoving on her face. "It's morning already," Eleanor mumbled, she was now struggling to sit on her butt with her hands itching her eyes. At that moment, the memories of last night were now dawning on her and a low gasp escaped from her lips. "The king!" She called, her eyes now staring across the room in search of him, however, she didn't see him. "Where could he be?" She thought in her mind. Then, drifting out of bed. "I think he's gone out!" She said. Hence, she hurried to the bathroom, took her quick bath, and stepped out after a few minutes. She hastily wore her clothes and packed her hair properly before

Abruptly, a bright light in the king's room came on, causing Katrina to halt halfway. Her heart skipped a beat, and she snapped her head towards the unforeseen souls now standing in the room. Her eyes widened, and she hurriedly grabbed the bed sheet and covered her nude as she sailed out of the bed. She was shivering, her whole body trembling in fear and anxiety with her head lowering to the floors. Zachary, madam Madison and Eleanor we're all standing in the room. Staring at her blankly, their face read no expression. "You attempt to lay with the king!" Zachary growled, his voice harsh and cold. "I'm sorry!" Katrina fell to her knees, her lips trembling as she sobbed. She wasn't expecting this to happen, she wasn't seeing this to go this way! How did they know that she was going to come? As if reading her mind, madam Madison spoke up. "How could you be so despicable?" Madam Madison cut in "If Eleanor hadn't heard your conversation with the mistress in her room, you would ha
"Please, don't do this, my king!" Eleanor pleaded, and she dropped to her knees. However, King Spencer seethed and he stormed past her and vanished out of the room. Zachary proceeded ahead and he hurried after the king. Cecilia frowned at the chaotic event, she knelt beside Eleanor and positioned her hand on her shoulder. "Hey, what's wrong?" She curiously asked her. Eleanor hiccuped and she said, "Katrina tried to lay with the king last night!" "What!" Cecilia cried out "How dare she?!" Her eyes widened in shock at the startling news. "I know she deserves punishment, but not death!" Eleanor sobbed, she turned fully to face Cecilia and she said "Death Penalty is too extreme!" Cecilia sighed and she stood to her feet "My brother is only trying to set an example for everyone else in the mansion," she told Eleanor. "I know, but death?" Eleanor quickly sprang to her feet. Cecilia sighed again. "Please do something, ma'am. We can't watch him kill her, that cruel!" Eleanor begg
"What!" Amelia gaped widely at King Spencer but he ignored her, and then, she balled her first with her hateful eyes on Eleanor. Cecilia moved away from her stepbrother and she went to Eleanor, grasped her softly and she whispered to her ear "The king is gone now. Come on, let's go!" They both held hands and began to walk away, Eleanor caught sight of madam Madison who hauled her a smile. "Eleanor!" Willow and Amaya rushed to their friend, they hugged her before they bowed respectfully at the princess. "What happened was unbelievable!" Willow gushed out excitedly "I never knew the king would ever listen to you!" She said. "But still, I'm unhappy that Katrina was saved," Amaya pouted. Cecilia simply remained silent, she wish to join the conversation but she knew they'd be scared to discuss it with her since she was the princess. "Ugh, this is princess Cecilia, she's my friend!" Eleanor introduced Cecilia to the girls, she had noticed how the princess was crestfallen. "Prin...."
Chapter 64 "My king!" Eleanor gasped sharply again, she gulped and her eyes trailed to his naked chest. Abruptly, a knock came on the door. "Forget about what I said!" King Spencer said next in a commanding tone. And then, he pulled away from her. Eleanor shakily breathed and she moved away from the door, she was sad and happy at the same time. She was thrilled to hear the king's request but now, he steely warned her to forget about what he had just said —she was feeling awful. "How am I gonna forget about those beautiful words he said to me, huh?" Eleanor thought in her mind. "Come in!" King Spencer's voice was heard in the next, he was now wearing his shirt and he promptly sat his butt majestically on his study chair. At that moment, Cecilia came into the room and she was kind of surprised to see Eleanor in the room. "My princess!" Eleanor quickly bowed at her. "How are you?" Cecilia smiled knowingly. "I'm fine, thank you!" "Okay, ugh, I would like to have a word with m
Clarkson arrived at the scene, and he was shocked to see his cousin laying dead on the floor. “Spencer! His eyes widened, and his heart skipped a beat as he stare at the unimaginable! “Cousin!” He called again but he got no response.“My brother is dead,” Cecilia muttered to him “Eleanor killed him, she poisoned him!” she cried. “What!” Clarkson's eyes widened in stun. "I swear it, I didn't kill the king!" Eleanor sobbed in grief, her cheek was now aching badly. Cecilia had slapped her hard. "You killed my brother!" Cecilia was roaring at her, and Eleanor tearfully shook her head at her. "Believe me please, princess. I didn't kill him!" Eleanor beseeched. "Lies, you were the one who served him the drink!" Aunty Marianna cried out at her this time. Clarkson's eyes dilated at Eleanor as he tries to get what was truly happening.“Are they accusing Eleanor of killing?” he thought in his mind. "My king!" Amelia scurried to king Spencer who was already dead, she was now crying as
It was early morning, and the bright sky was soothing and mesmerizing but the atmosphere in the mansion was intense and overwhelming. It was approximately 10: 35 AM. Today was the day the king slave will be killed! Eleanor has been taken out and she was made to kneel on the grounds of the vast yard, her hands were both shackled behind her back and her legs too. Everyone was now drifting out of the mansion one after the other, whispering and talking in hush tones. "Please, you have to change your mind," Clarkson was saying to Cecilia. "Never, I already made my decision!" Cecilia said she was now getting closer to Eleanor. Everyone surrounded Eleanor as they fixed their nasty eyes and harsh stares were on her, inciting her skin to crawl coldly. "Where is Zachary?" Madam Madison was whispering to Willow and Amaya. "I don't know ma'am!" Willow sobs, squirming her fingers as she gazed at her poor friend. "We haven't seen him," Amaya added, and then, she squatted on her knees with
