King Derek's POV

I was quick to get to her before she fell to the ground unconscious. The fuck!

I lifted her in my arms and walked briskly to my bedroom, then sent Ace to call for Snow, which he did, almost immediately.

The reaction on Snow's face after checking Eleanor's condition got me even more worried.

"What the hell is wrong, Snow. Does she needs blood? Was she infected? What happened?" I asked all at once but she shook her head slowly in disapproval.

"She... She's... Eleanor is pregnant" she whispered and my brain rang bells.

"What the hell do you mean by she's pregnant? I never slept with her for the past two days she had been here so what are you saying?" I inquired hotly but Snow bit her lips.

"It didn't happen recently, Your majesty. She's six weeks pregnant" Snow announced gently and I raked my hands through my hair.

I felt the extensity of his anger but there was nothing I could do to help.I sat tiredly at one corner of the field, sincerely hoping that all was well.*After what seemed like eternity, I stood up to take a stroll along every pathway that has a particular lead around the palace.I sighted an unfamiliar pathway not far from the field and I decided to take a look.

My heart couldn't help but waver at the thought of finding out eventually that there's a possibility that Derek has a connection with the serial killer.I tried convincing myself otherwise, but this feeling of curiosity won't die down so easily. Three 'what ifs' kept evading my mind. 'What if he's the killer behind my parent's death?''What if he's the beast behind Laura's death?''What if he had tried to kill Ethan to bury the truth forever?'Just what if these were true? Then what would become of me? I couldn't help asking myself. I hurriedly looked for the kitchen, I needed to clear my mind of crazy thoughts.

I laid down on the floor there, and I tried to sit up and rest my back against the wall. I sat against the wall, still holding my head tightly as the pain intensified.

Lucas stopped abruptly, clearing his throat as he exhaled deeply.“What about the baby?” He asked as he wore a concerned look on his face. “The maid will take care of him,” I replied calmly as I tilted my head to look at him, and we continued to walk in the direction of the yard. In no time, we were standing in the yard where the whole army was gathered with their weapons all set. They all bowed down in unison to greet me and I gestured, tilting my head to see all of them. I turned to Lucas, giving him a brief stare, gesturing to him to bring his ears.“What's the plan?” I whispered lowly into his ears. I leaned backward, looking directly into his eyes.

Lucas walked slowly towards the door, and the maid bowed as he approached. She was trembling obviously, as her hands were shaky when she pointed into the room again. “The baby.” She managed to say as she pointed again. I turned to look in the direction of his crib. He seemed to be sleeping peacefully. “What happened to him?” Lucas asked curiously as he looked at the maid with a straight face, making me turn towards her. I walked towards the baby to check on him as I did not understand what the maid was saying there. He was still sleeping as I tapped him gently.
