I shifted from one foot to another restlessly, my eyes blurring a few times. I'm really tired and hungry yet I can't do anything about it.

The Prince is currently training with some other warriors, he doesn't seem to get tired at all.

I yawned for the umpteenth time moving my hair off my face. I let out a tired sign and dropped to the ground, sitting on it. I can't keep up with standing, it's draining the little energy I have left in me.

While sitting on the floor and watching the prince train with so much vigour, my mind travelled back to the scene at the Prince's room. I really can't say what pushed me to talk back to that princess but I had to do it, she's definitely one of those spoilt brat princesses.

I mean, she's seeing me for the first time and the next thing she do is insult me while I'm standing. I've never met her before talk more of having a misunderstanding wi

    I used my hands to wipe the sweats off my face. We had just finished cleaning the ball room, which wasn't really dirty for we had been cleaning it a lot. I threw the napkin I used for cleaning into the basin with a thud breathing heavily. After washing and cleaning the dust off my body I went to the palace kitchen and assisted Madam Helen with washing the dishes. "Things has really been hard for us." Madam Helen suddenly complained as she moved about the kitchen to get a few things done. "Huh?" Eleanor looked up from the dishes in her hands and furrowed her brows in confusion at her. "Things has really been hard for us ever since the princess got here." She explained making Eleanor understand little of what she's saying. "The girl is a brat. Never liked her ever since she was little. She's so devious and manipulative."

    Evander rushed forward and pushed the door to the Prince's room open. Luciano walked into the room and stood by the side letting Killian get in with Eleanor in his arms. Killian glanced at the prince as if asking him where to drop her. "On the bed." Luciano ordered answering the unasked question. Killian glanced one more time at this prince as if asking for confirmation before dropping her on the bed. Eleanor whimpered softly though she was asleep. "No, lay her on her belly." Luciano quickly said as he noticed her discomfort, she's probably feeling pain from her injured back. Killian turned Eleanor on her belly before stepping aside, waiting for the Prince's next order. "Killian, go to Madam Helen and tell her to come here and bring some of those healing herbs, all of it. Go." "Yes my prince." Killian bowed and left the room. "Evander, tell Mabuse to get here quick with all his healing herbs. Tell him I said it's important and if he doesn't get here soon I won't hesitate to

    Eleanor stirred lightly on the bed turning to face the other way to avoid the rays of sunlight shining directly on her face. She groaned lightly going back to sleep.Luciano stood up from the chair where he sat and drew the curtains close. He had woken up hours ago and sat by the table staring at sleeping Eleanor. He was sure it's the herbs that Mabuse gave her that's making her sleep this long.He feels a lot better now. His heart is no longer clenching in pain or guilt because he felt he has done the right thing. All he waited for was for her to wake up and confirm she's really okay.Eleanor forcefully opened her yet sleepy eyes when she realised that she was lying on a bed. So soft unlike that of the bed in the slave quarters that is as hard as a rock. She raised her head off the bed still lying on her stomach to examine where she was.Her eyes widened in suprise when she spotted the prince standing by the table staring at her. Immediately, her mind registered where she was.Dear

    "Don't tell me to calm down Elliot!! Do not tell me!! My son has gone insane!! He has gone insane!!" Axel roared pacing furiously around the throne room. "Why would he do that?!! To a stupid slave!! A STUPID SLAVE!! Come on, just think about it Elliot!! And don't tell me it's nothing!!!" "You know what?? Damn that slave, I'm killing her!!" Elliot let out a sign, shaking his head in frustration. "Axel," He called raising his brows tiredly at him. "You need to calm so you won't blow this up. I'm sure Luciano knows what he's doing. He might even have a plan, who knows??" "To hell with such plan." Axel growled, still pacing around the room with anger boiling in him. "Come on Axel, we all know Luciano. He's not so vulnerable to anyone, talk more of a mere slave. You're just getting worked up for nothing." "Don't tell me that Elliot." Axel stopped pacing and stood still pointing his finger at Elliot with a dead stare on his face. "Luciano has never acted this way, so what the hell are

    "Mother," Sabrina cried out, immediately she stepped into the queen's room. She leaned her hands on the wall and walked fully into the room, her face filled with tears. "Oh gods, Sabrina," The Queen stood up from the chair where she sat and walked to the weeping Sabrina. She placed her hand on her shoulder and directed her to the bed. "Darling, what happened? What's wrong?" She asked, but she was responded with only sniffs and light hiccups. "Oh my god Sabrina, tell me what's wrong?" The Queen sat on the bed beside patting her shoulders lightly. After a few minutes, silence sat in the room with only a few sniffs from Sabrina. She raised the cup in her hands filled with water, given to her by the queen's maid to her mouth and took one last gulp of water down her throat. She dropped the cup on the table and took a deep breath, glancing at the Queen who sat beside her, staring at her with concern in her eyes, before taking her eyes to her laps, fixing her gaze on it. "I'm sorry I c

    *Three days later* Luciano walked into the field, his eyes moving around the field in search of someone. He breathed out a sign of relief immediately he spotted Nikolai at the end of the field talking to a warrior. Nikolai turned his head to stare at him immediately he noticed footsteps approaching him, he said something to the warrior before turning to face his brother. "Hey brother." He greeted with his usual smile on his face. "I need to talk to you." Luciano replied almost immediately. "Ohh," Nikolai raised his brows in confusion before they both walked towards a more silent area in the field. "So what do you wanna talk about?" Nikolai asked staring at him questioningly. "You're not gonna say this to anyone?" Nikolai furrowed his brows at him in confusion before answering. "Sure I won't." "Okay." Luciano muttered, rubbing his palms together like he was nervous. "I don't know how to say this but- gods this is so weird- I've suddenly developed a weird feeling." Nikolai quir

    "Oh! there you are nephew." Elliot said with his usual smirk plastered on his face. Luciano turned to stare at her, his face mirroring irritation and maybe hurt. "I... master..." Eleanor tried speaking but stopped when he glared at her with a cold look on his face. Eleanor bowed her head in shame as tears began stinging her eyes. Dear gods, why would this happen? "It's good to see you again after a long time nephew." "What the hell do you think you were doing?" Luciano asked sternly. "Oooh, what do you think?" Elliot raised his brows at him, turning to glance at Eleanor before turning back to face the prince. "You should have taken that somewhere else." The prince said coldly. "And mind you, don't do that with my personal slave." "Huh," Elliot stared turned to stare at me and prince with suspicion in his eyes. "Is there anything going on between you two?" Elliot arched his brows at the prince. "No. Besides I don't do slaves." Luciano replied coldly staring at her. "Then w

    "Now tell me what the hell happened." He ordered. "Everything." He added staring deeply at her. Was he really ready to hear her out? Eleanor gulped down the lump in her throat, twisting her hands together. She took a deep breath before narrating all that happened to him. A few minutes after Eleanor has finished speaking, silence descended in the room. Eleanor shifted from one foot to another as tension filled the air. She lifted her eyes up when she heard movement from the prince. Luciano stood up from the chair and walked around to the front of the table and rested on it, folding his arms together. He let out a short breath, running his hands through his hair. He can't believe Elliot would do that. Like, what the hell is wrong with that man? He knows how to perfectly step on his toe. "You should have have resisted him." Luciano say staring at her. "Huh?" Eleanor stared up at him in shock. How do hell could he ask her that after all she told him. "Maybe if I was so strong, p

    *Eight years later*"Mother, I have it all ready!! Take a look!" I looked to the door to see Alex, my four years old son, trying to pull a big bag into my room."Alex seriously?" I chuckled and walked to him, collecting the bag from him. "This is way bigger than you, you should've left it for me." I patted his head, leaning down to plant a kiss on his hair."But I'm so powerful and strong!" He raised his hands up, clenching his fists tightly. "Father said so.""Yes, you're so strong but this is way bigger than you." I still replied nonetheless. "Where is your sister?" I asked, trying to stop him from starting an argument again."Erm, I..I think I left her in the room." He placed his hands under jaw, pretending to be thinking about something. "Alex." I folded my arms, raising my brows at him. "How many times do I have to tell you to watch over your sister?""Ermm, I don't know. How am I supposed to remember how many times but I can guess twenty seven, yes!" He raised his small fingers

    *STOCKEM*"Oh dear Sabrina." Sabrina looked up from the ground when her door opened and her sisters stepped in. She rolled her eyes, taking her gaze to the window."Oh my god, she looks so sad." Zara said with fake sympathy."Sabrina, you have no idea how much we missed you." Annika spoke, coming to stand before her bed. "Tell me, what was the wedding with the prince like? Was it how you dream?" She asked, faking an innocent smile. "Or where you were kicked out?""Just leave." Sabrina pointed her hand to the door, heaving out an exasperated sigh."Leave? But we just came here." Zara said, pouting her lips. "I'm not in for this, just leave!" She yelled unexpectedly."Ooh, I forgot you're a tigress." Annika said and burst out laughing, Zara joining her immediately. "Oh poor Sabrina, just see the look on your face. It must've been so hard. So hard realising your plan failed woefully, you failed." Zara scoffed before speaking. "You left here with so much pride, but look at you now? No w

    Eleanor was shocked to the bones, as this was the most unusual thing ever. Nevertheless, she wrapped her hands around her, accepting the hug. “I know I would definitely look like a coward, but I’m sorry.” Ariel said after disengaging from the hug.“Ermm… I..” They all turned to the door when they had noises, a loud voice yelling. “Let go of me!! You bitch!” Gwen could be seen; effortlessly dragging Sabrina into the room then throwing her to the floor.”She stopped yelling and looked around the room, seeing all eyes on her. “Luciano, no, no.” Eleanor rushed to him, holding him back when he rushed to Sabrina, with rage in his eyes. “Let her be.” Thankfully, he stopped struggling against her, he looked around the room last time before storming out.“Nikolai?” Ariel called, finally noticing him at the corner of the room. He raised his hand, motioning her to stop as she walked towards him. Then with the help of a guard, he left the room, Gwen also rushing to follow him.“Where are you now?

    “What idea?” Eleanor asked curiously, moving closer to her.“Well..” She scratched her head nervously before speaking. “Well, you can speak to our king, maybe he might give out some soldiers to you.” Nikolai and Luciano stared at each other as if deliberating if that was a good plan. “He might refuse you know? Not everyone wants a problem with Cordenia.” Luciano spoke, knowing well that most of the kingdoms avoided troubles with them, ever since what they did to Narva. Now Daekhram is one small village with very little number of people, that would definitely be the last thing they’ll want to do.“You can try and see what he says.” Eleanor said, trying to encourage. “Sure. Let’s see what happens then.” *“How'd it go?” They all stood up when the door opened and both brothers stepped in. “How did it go?” Eleanor held so much hope in her eyes as she asked.“Well, nothing. He refused.” She breathed out a small sigh, feeling quite hopeless again. “So what do we do now?” She wrapped he

    “Surprised?” Sabrina burst out laughing out loud hysterically. “Oh my god, I never imagined how the look on your face would be, but trust it definitely worth it, and I'll do this over and over again just to see this look again.” Ariel shook her head in disbelief as she burst out laughing again.“Elliot, what is this?” He never thought he could ever do something like this. Hell! They were brothers and this is definitely the most shocking thing that has ever happened to him.“It is what it is Axel.” Elliot answered with an evil smirk on his face. “Oh, I forgot you might be so dumb to realise all that is going, so I’m going to spare a littlle of my time and do the explanation.”He nodded at one of the attackers, or rather his secret soldiers and he left immediately, returning with two chairs which Elliot and Sabrina sat on respectively. “Okay, here we go. Storytime.” Elliot rubbed his palm together, faking enthusiasm. “First of all Axel, I’d love to say you have been so stupid and really

    She hummed to an unending song as she moved around the room. Surprisingly, she woke up on the right side of the bed. With no idea of what made her so calm and relieved she began her little duties she had to do. In a few minutes she knew Nalia would be here to take her to the woman she talked about.A few minutes later, just when she was done with all the work, Nalia arrived. "You ready?""Yeah, sure." Eleanor replied, rubbing her palm on her skirt.“You look quite happy.” Nalia commented, with brows raised in surprise. “I mean you’ve been quite the opposite these days. Sorry to say though.”“It’s fine. Honestly I have no idea why I am, but there’s no need to be worried. It’s not a bad thing huh.” As far as she knows, being mysteriously happy should be a sign that good things might happen.“Okay let’s go.” Nalia says, shrugging her shoulders. “It’s quite a long work to Kyla’s place, so we better hurry.”“Bye sophia!” Eleanor yelled, hoping she hears her from her room.“Bye Ladies, be c

    Gwen woke up earlier than normal the next morning and did all important chores right before it was time for breakfast. She had a plan in mind and hopefully it works out well.After dropping a few things in the store room, she headed down the stairs, with one place in mind. The kitchen. She usually avoids going there everyday, but today she knew her entire plan depends on it."Sorry, oh- hey." She bumped into someone, immediately realising it's Nikolai. They don't see each other often again, since she has a lot of duties and work now, considering the fact Luciano isn't helping again but locked up in his room, they were given loads of work.She remembers their conversation yesterday, a quite heated one though. Her first plan was to try to make Nikolai tell Luciano the truth, she knew for sure Luciano would listen to him but he refused, bluntly. Giving an excuse it was for the sake of Eleanor's safety. Gwen knows well it wouldn't affect her, she hates to see him this way, considering the

    *The next day*Luciano had woken up a few hours ago and after taking his bath, he sat on his bed, resting back against the headboard, staring into space.He was sad, and hurt. Also angry at himself.Angry at himself for not fulfilling all the promises he made to her. He brought into this mess, assured her that he would protect her, but what did he do? Absolutely nothing.Instead he got her killed. He can’t count how many times she had tried to play safe, even tried to bury the feelings she had for him. It seemed like she was the one with bigger brains here, trying as much as possible not to get into any trouble while he? He kept dragging into it over and over again. Making stupid promises to keep her safe, forcing her into a dangerous relationship when he knew well it wasn’t good for her. She trusted him, believing everything would be fine just like he said. She was positive and had no doubt, putting all hopes on a stupid person like him. Even when it got worse and all he had to do wa

    Ariel couldn’t understand the shivers that ran down her spine immediately he said those words. She knows very well he doesn’t joke with words, just like his father. Regret suddenly filled her but disappeared immediately it came. “Don’t say that, Luciano.”Luciano scoffed and ran his palm over his face. He looked like he was struggling hard to refrain himself from flaring in anger. His fists repeatedly clench together, his breaths already coming out in pants. “Leave.” He growled warningly.“There is no point getting angry Luciano, we did this for you, for your safe-““Don’t you dare say that!!!” Axel stopped talking when Luciano suddenly yelled. “When has Eleanor ever been a threat?! Just tell me! WHEN?!” For the first time in so many years Ariel saw his eyes water. She must say she’s never seen him so hurt, her heart clenched in guilt when a drop of tears slipped from his eyes. “Do you know what you are now?” He was the only one speaking now because it seemed she had nothing to say.
