Stranger To King: Eternal War 30
“How did you know??” I curiously asked. “You have a similar smell to Pinta, like a comforting scent. Mom also told me your name, and it’s a coincidence you have the same name. Plus, you like me as well.” I couldn’t hold back my tears. Mia did say he was brilliant, but this is ridiculous. I was questioning if he was five. Julian began to hiccup as his eyes filled with water. Every time they drip down, I wipe them. Under his breath, he started to say it was okay to cry, but it showed weakness. So, nobody should see him cry. Until today, he came running towards me—my baby boy. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. An hour later, I carried Julian in while he fell asleep. I spotted my wife as he strolled down the hallway. She was worried sick about our whereabouts and asked what happened. I had a guard take him to his room so Mia and I could talk. I told her everything, even the part when he figured it out. The fact Pinta had my scent for so long amazed me. Mia took everything that belonged to me

~ Mia ~ He just left me here— not one stare back. I never would have thought Anisel could be this cruel to me. Some of the guards turned away once I glanced at them. Why would they stand there and not help me up?? I wiped my eyes as I stood on my feet. I would chase after him, but I know I would make it worse. I headed to the main office to speak to Nina. When I arrived, the others glared at me with such tension. Before I could blink, they walked out of the room, and even my brother gave me a disappointing expression. I felt awful. Nina stood at her desk, waiting for me to join her. At first, I didn't know what to say. “The Queen of Satia, lying about bringing peace only to cause suffering. Why didn't you tell him this on the day you did it?" Nina said. I wanted to tell them before everything, but I couldn't see them like that. They did not know how to live. Giving them that closure brought relief and comfort. I want them to be happy. Nina shook her head. Lovers are not supposed

So, the diamond has been in that cell for decades, and no one thought to look!! They did explain how the cells were destroyed after their escape leaving everything to rot. People assume they took it as they fled the kingdom. My parents never checked or tried to check if there was anything here under the rumble. It was like they didn't care. As the guards kicked down their door that day, Khali, Anisel’s father, swallowed it like water. He regrets the choice as his stomach was out of order for the days they were in that cell. When it finally passed through, they immediately placed it in a hole. I have many questions but I don't know where to start. Khali cut off my thinking, “I wish we could chat more. But we don't have time to waste. Just meet us here and we will tell you what we know.” Khali said. They bowed as they waved goodbye. In the back of my mind, I should tell Anisel about this sudden surprise. But, I was ordered by them to keep it a secret. So I will. I came across Anisel

"Anisel, I love your brother, but he is getting to a line that can't be crossed. This is not the first time he disobeyed a direct order from his commander." I said as I rubbed my hands in my hair."I can't argue with that, my love. You really outdid yourself, huh, Joshua? I don't want to believe it."Me either. Joshua has been causing problems since he joined. We tried our best to help, but he dug deeper into a hole. The Americans are not to be messed with-- and we got them locked in our cells!! Red flag!! That is a major red flag!! They were in black cars and came out with black clothing. Nobody recognized them as they weren't passing by.These people were looking for Anisel and me, which was weird as we had no visitors scheduled. But here they come ruining our day. Great start. Somehow the girl knew Joshua and Anisel's names like they had unfinished business to do– which they did; I knew something was going on. I didn't want to believe Joshua because it did not make sense."I will s

"No fucking way!! My parents— stole the Royal Mint and didn't share the wealth?? Impossible, he is making that up." Anisel said. I glanced at the others who agreed with his statement. He was telling the truth. Anisel and I went back to the office to discuss."I will have to rethink the make-up story. It is a strong chance it could have happened. Which is why we need to bring back my parents for questioning.""That is a long shot. Four days tops, they would arrive here, and that is enough time for them to kill us. We need to prepare for war, my love. Joshua has shot their captain and captured them. Do you think she will say fuck it?" Anisel said.How are we supposed to prepare for war when we don't have soldiers or weapons like them?? It's like going into a lion's den without protection— it is a suicide attempt. My husband wanted to get information from associates. Like Pervia, they have the resources we need to win. However, Queen Yuli has other things to worry about in her kingdom. S

It was about 3 am when a loud knock was at the door. Mia and I both jumped in fright. “Anisel,” Mia said as she clung to my arm.“I heard that too. Wait here; I will check it out.” I got up, but Mia didn't want to let go. So, I yanked my arm away. I got out of bed and snatched my sword nearby. The guards should be dealing with this and not me. I slowly opened the door to see a guard on the ground. The other one tried to help him up. What happened??I searched around to see the shattered window and brick with a note. It states: "To the King & Queen of Satia, you have captured my men and injured me. That was uncalled for, as I only wanted a peaceful conversation with you. Anisel, your family owes me a great debt, and I will do anything in my power to get it. Release my men with the money, or war will start. You have 24 hours to respond. ~ From Sera."Sera?? I heard that name before. My parents have called it out, but I don't know when or why. I helped my guards to their feet and gave th

~ Anisel ~The meeting hall was filled with all types of nobles; even Hazel's top men were there. I have never seen such a crowd, but I needed everyone here to discuss business. When I sat down, I saw Matthew three chairs away. Good, he read the letter. “I'm glad that you made it, Lord Matthew. I do apologize for the bother.” I said as I bowed my head.“Desperate times call for desperate measures. It must be important for you even to reach out. What has troubled you, your highness??”“Foreigners have stepped into our lands and caused mischief. They have threatened to start a war because of what has been done. These people are soldiers; however, they used to live here in Satia. Well, their leader did, and the Royal Mint Diamond has been missing for years.” I stated. The whole room went silent as they couldn't believe what they heard.One of the officials has thought what we all were thinking– how did the kingdom function without its precious gem?? We rely on the diamond for support, an

~ Mia ~My whole mood changed when I noticed he was there. With a lot of strength, I shook his hand. My focus went back to Anisel, and asked if we could talk in private. With a nod, we went to the bedroom and locked the door. My brother, Lily, and the servant came in with us. "I knew it!! I knew it was going to be a boy!!" Lily shouted with excitement.“Good because having all girls running around isn't the best. To have a nephew is awesome news.” Jabrel said. The more we discussed it, the more I realized how he would be born into madness. I'm in my third semester, and if a war happens, then he will be raised in disaster. I can't have my son be forced into this. Anisel glanced at me with concern. I explained my thoughts. He held my hand and told me not to think negatively. He will be protected at all times.I needed to hear that. The others had confused expressions which switched the mood. I brushed it off and returned to talking about our bouncy baby boy. They got excited when I aske

Stranger To King: Eternal War 29
~ Mia ~ I couldn’t rest last night as we were searching for Pinta. He still wasn’t found. How could Julian lose him that fast? As I was walking around the hallway, I spotted Matthew sitting on a bench, staring out the window. “Hey Matt, you okay??” I asked. He needed some air, that's all. The doctors said he had permission to walk freely. He wanted to build his strength back up, and being cooped up in bed wasn't helping. “Heard you have been looking for something. Searching like crazy.” He mentioned. Yeah, Pinta. However, I gave up because I knew he would appear soon. But I did ask Matthew if he saw him by any chance. It took a second to respond, and he shook his head no. Out of nowhere, he grabbed my waist as I was about to leave. The grip was loose, as he didn't intend to hurt me. He had this expression that I couldn't figure out. He was happy that I found someone who was caring. Who will do anything for me? Matthew never complimented anybody before, and to hear this was heart
Stranger To King: Eternal War 28
~ Julian ~ Mommy and I went to find Pinta. I swear I had him before climbing in bed— I think. If we don't see him, then I will never get to sleep. He is my safe zone. Mommy took us to the living room and began to search. I looked in tight spaces so she didn't have to. I remember playing with him here, but I would never—would I?? I threw the seat pillows across the way, and Mommy saw me struggling as I held it with two hands. "Don't hurt yourself, Julian." She said as she helped me. "PINTA!!! Pinta, buddy, where are you?" I wanted to cry because Mommy said I must be a big boy and never show sadness around people. I am only allowed to cry when I am in the bathroom. She told me to stand here while she checked the kitchen. If Pinta is in there, then he will get punished. While standing, my head spun around to find a brown bear— but nowhere to be found. I can’t wait anymore for Mommy to get back. PINTA!! I searched up and down the hallways as guards helped as well. They said they hadn

My body froze in place while Sera asked again as she walked forward. “Where are the bodies, Mia?? There is nothing in those caskets— why would you put nothing underground?? Did you lie to them??” she said. “Digging up graves is disrespectful. I see your parents didn't teach you manners.” “Like your parents taught you nothing— like you lying. What would the brothers think of this?? If they are not in a casket, where could they be?? Are they alive??” Sera asked with curiosity. I don't know the answer, but we searched the nation for their bodies, and they were nowhere to be found. I had to do it for closure so they could live in peace. It was the right thing to do at the time. If my husband found out about this, then I am dead. Why did she ask me when she killed them? Sera corrected me by saying someone killed them. She doesn't know if they did the job. So, Anisel’s parents could be alive after all these years, along with the diamond. Where could they be hiding?? As I was thinking,

~ Mia ~ As we headed out, everyone else went back to the wagon. I wanted to go alone, but Mihkal and Hamom assisted, leaving me no choice. I suggested we split up for more coverage, but they explained how it is unsafe to walk around with escorts. They know where the keys are. “You are not 100% sure the keys are in her room. It would be a waste of time as the sun will rise soon. Splitting up is the best option. We need this victory.” I said while I searched the area for guards. If they did not listen to my orders, then they should have gone to the wagon. I do not have time for this. After we check the bedroom, we will go our separate ways. If they are, for sure, then we should be in and out. I was listening to what my husband said about her room. Avoid it!! However, they agreed to the deal. Anisel was right about protection. These guards are nowhere to be found. There should be guards down each hallway and guarding certain areas but barely walking one hall. As we got to the door,

~ Anisel ~ What was it like outside?? The sun, the fresh air, the soft ground that smooths my feet. For five years, I have been chained up and tortured. I wasn't allowed to leave this cage or the palace. My body is numb as I lose blood flow in my limbs. I know I look how I used to back in the days— a peasant. As I was dreaming, a bucket of water was thrown at my face. “Wakey, wakey, time for dinner,” Sera said as she opened my cell door. “No." “Now, Anisel, I need you alive. I want to torture you some more, but I can’t if you refuse to eat. Now, I’m not going to ask again.” She began to shove food into my mouth. I could barely breathe. When is this going to end? After she was done, she tossed the plate at my stomach as it hit the ground and shattered. Sera left with laughter. "Bitch, is everyone okay??" I called out. Hazel returned my question and stated Mikhal's condition. He hasn't eaten in months, and Hamon worries about his health. Like the others, he would rather die than
Stranger To King: Eternal War 24
Later that evening, Nina had one of her guards watch Julian while we planned. The queen will oversee the operation as she knows Satia's layout. Nina placed a map up for all to see and explained the path to return. "Here. That is the fastest route to Satia. You will arrive there by tomorrow night if you don't take breaks. No guards will be around at that time. You will be free to roam; they will be locked up under the palace. You should know how to get there." Nina said. "What if they block those paths already?? What do we do now?? Nina reached into the drawer and pulled out photos. The paths are still cleared for now. The back door is probably our safest bet. Nobody knows about that but us— hopefully. Lily chimed in about the information. How does she know all of this?? The queen chuckled and smirked. When she heard about the great fall of Satia, she took advantage of the opportunity. Nina was going to take over if we didn't return. Luckily, we made it to Havin on time. She explai
