NOLAN Anita and I had an argument again. This time around it was because I told her I wanted a divorce. "That isn't possible." She said. I rolled my eyes. "You get to keep the position, I don't want it." "You can't disgrace me." She snarled. What the hell? I was going to be the one ridiculed for not being able to stay with my wife. No one would dare speak ill of Anita except they wanted to die. "Really?" I asked. Anyone that listens to the way she's speaks will think that she loved me so much. I'm going for good. I had already made up my mind. There was nothing anybody could do to stop me. "Yes, really. Do you even think before you talk?" She asked. I am a Baroness, an example to others. What say would I have when other families have quarrels?" She asked. "My position will be threatened. Seeing that I don't have a husband" "Your figure headness is useful after all." She added painfully. "Whatever you think might happen is all in your head. There is nothing like that.

ANITAWhat punishment does he deserve according to the law? I asked."Banishment." An elder replied.That means he would be made a rogue. I didn't want that, I wanted him to remain with me.Allowing him to be free to marry Nancy wasn't going to happen.He must remain with me throughout the days of his life.His eyes flashed to mine but I ignored him."Is there another punishment?" I asked."He would be in the palace but relinquish all his right." Another elder said."Why don't we conduct more investigation, your highness?" Conan suggested.What? Everyone turned to look at him"I know that this is a sensitive issue but we need to be careful before passing judgment." He continued."What other evidence do you seek?" Elder Samuel asked."We
AUTHOR"No one." She replied.Vaughn had taken over completely.She heard her right arms bent awkwardly, the bone was out of its sockets.Sylvia screamed in pain but the room had been sound proofed by Vaughn.No one could hear Sylvia screaming.She fell on the floor and crawled to the door pleading with tears running down her face. She looked really pathetic.Vaughn walked stealthily towards her. She must have seen the murderous intent in Amara eyes. Sh knew that something had posessed Amara again."I was on my own, when she approached me to set him up." She confessed."Was it Anita?" Vaughn asked, daring her to deny it."No." Vaughn's brows rose. "Then who was it?" She asked.She was in the mood to play with this girl. She didn't want to kill her.Her main target was Anita.Sylvia was just a pawn in Anita's hands. She wanted to please Anita at all cost. She wasn't really am evil person.She dislocated her second hand again.Sylvia screamed in much agony"I think I got my answer." "
AUTHORHe drove round the pack today, doing some deliveries, with his mind preoccupied on many things. When he arrived later, he heard that Conan had come looking for him.He didn't bother to seek Conan when he was ready he'll come looking for him.After a while when he returned, Conan arrived at his quarters.His face was unwelcoming and harsh. "I came to see you earlier." Conan said as he saw Rocky." To what do we owe this visit from royalty?" He asked, sarcastically bowing in the process.Conan rolled his eyes, they were not friends. They had never been and would never be. So his question was justified.Well he also didn't care much about Rocky. In his opinion he was pompous, more over, Rocky was about to steal how woman."It wouldn't be a surprising thing to visit my cousin." He said blithely, as he observed his surrounding.Weighty matters were not to be talked about carelessly. "That's a pleasure for his highness to remember us." Rocky replied sassily.After perusing that the
AUTHOR He smiled inwardly at his observation. Deep down, Anita was jealous because she knew that Nolan never liked her.He removed her hands from his chest. It was irritating to his person. She was angry at that action." You have no reason to be furious, Anita, I will still divorce you." I promised her, watching in satisfaction as she got more angrier.She looked as if she wanted to kill me but she couldn't. The law didn't give her the right to do so. Especially to the Baron."I know your plans, and I assure you that they won't work." I told her. If it were possible for her face to get redder than it already was, it would.She wasn't able to regain composure. That made him smile. " So you want to run away with Nancy?" She asked unable to stop herself."What do you think?" He asked. "I know that you wouldn't want to dare me." She said."What more can you do?" He mocked. She could no longer intimidate him. That era had passed.He knew that she'd set Nancy up or try to kill her."Ani
NANCYI was shocked at the question. I wasn't expecting it at all. The look in her eyes shows that she wasn't going to be fooled by anything I said." I didn't do anything." I replied bowing my head. It was the custom. I willed my heart to stop beating fast.It just didn't seem right that she was asking after Sylvia. I knew she didn't care about her. She was only looking for an excuse to pick on me." Girl, don't test me." She warned. I looked at her and looked down.Well, you can't do nothing. You have no evidence that I did it.After that thought, I became calm. A wave of serenity washed through me. She must have seen the switch in my stance.I watched as she rose and walked away towards me. She circlede but I remained in my position."I don't know what you're doing, but I'll soon catch you." She threatened, snarling in the
AUTHORThey looked at each other and Amara jumped down from his body, as she adjusted her dress.They looked at the door warily." Come in." Conan said.Roman came in. "Another maid says she's assigned here." He informed them wondering why Amara had been in there for long if it were only a drink she wanted to serve.Conan was tying a towel and Amara looked away. She looked guilty. Wasn't he betrothed to Diana?"Tell her to go back, I changed the roster.." Conan instructed.Roman didn't believe the bull. But, he nodded anyway, taking a second look at Amara before leaving the room.Amara felt weird. After coming down from the high of the kiss. She saw the disbelief in Roman's eyes. He thought she betrayed Diana."What do we do now?" She asked Conan.Conan was surprised, he didn't care what the guard th
