Eleanor kept her head down as she walked into the castle, the prince had dismissed her heading to the training ground.

Eleanor climbed up the stairs to the hallway leading to her room with hurried steps. She bolted the door open as quick as she could and stepped inside, shutting the door behind her.

She took a deep breath and leaned her head against the door, placing her hands on her chest to calm her breaths.

Dear gods, what the hell is wrong with her? Why would she be thinking of the prince in such way?

She can't believe she was even thinking he'd kiss her again. Like, what the hell?

She promised herself she was going to stay away from him but now she's doing quite the opposite. She's longing for him to kiss her which is really far from possible.

Eleanor used her palm to slap her forehead groaning lightly.

She walked to the bed in the room which has became hers ever since she was given the room. She threw herself on the bed with her arms spread apart staring at the ceiling, h

    "Luciano?" The King sat up right on his throne seat staring at Sabrina with suprise. "What about him?" "Well, you see father, I'm really tired of Luciano's behaviour and I would like to return back to my kingdom." "Sabrina, what did he do?" "Father, Luciano doesn't acknowledge my presence here, it's all about that slave, he's always with her. This evening I saw him walking to the riverside with her. That was supposed to be me father, not some random slave. Something has to be done father or else I leave." She deadpanned, folding her hands together with a frown on her face. "You don't have to worry Sabrina, I'll do something about it." The king promised. "Something better be done about it. I can't get married to someone who would act and treat me like I don't exist." She said tearfully. "I'll do something about it. I'd make sure he stops whatever he's doing." "Alright father, I'd like to take my leave now." "Sure, you can go." Sabrina nodded and walked out of the throne room sm

    "You would not do that Luciano. Not on my watch!" The king yelled in fury. Luciano stood in the middle of the throne room staring drily at his father. "Now, I expect you to do what is expected of you and do not dare me." "I never told you I was interested in getting married to Sabrina, so why the hell should I care about her." Luciano asked, raising one of brows at him. "Do not provoke me Luciano." The king growled in anger. "Stop whatever it is you're doing and focus your mind on getting married to her. I don't care if you're not interested, I gave you time, you wasted it. Now act like a gentleman and do what is expected of you." "Can I leave now?" Luciano asked obviously not interested in the talk. The king glared hard at him breathing heavily. "Leave." Luciano wasted no time in turning around and exiting the throne room. He groaned lightly under his breath as he climbed up the stairs leading to Nikolai's room. He doesn't have to think much to know that Sabrina is the cause

    "Luciano." Luciano turned back on hearing his name and sighted Elliot behind climbing up the last flight of stairs. His blood boiled in anger immediately he recalled what happened the last he saw him. "It's been so long since I last saw you." He said as he walked towards him. "What brings you here?" Luciano asked in a cold voice, stopping Elliot from walking any further. "A discussion that should take place in your room." Elliot said, tilting his head to the side. Luciano stared at him for a few seconds before he turned around and walked to his room, Elliot trailing behind him. "What is it you have to say?" Luciano asked immediately he stepped into the room, walking to his table and rested on it, folding his arms and staring at Elliot with disinterest evident in his eyes. "Let's have a drink over it." "No drinks. Say whatever it is you wanna say or leave." Luciano deadpanned, his voice cold as ice. "Well, you see nephew I've noticed something really strange about you." Elliot

    Sabrina heaved out a heavy sign as the maids used the last pin to hold her hair in place. She stood up from the chair and walked to the standing mirror to take a look at herself. She smiled in satisfaction, brushing her hand on her dress before walking out of the room. She headed for the staircase leading to the Queen's chambers lost in thought. She needs to do this, time is no longer on her side. It's high time they stop playing around and begin with the main reason she came here. "Hey! Watch it bitch!" She was suddenly drawn out of her thoughts by an angry voice. She stared up to see Nikolai staring down at her with disgust evident in his eyes. She had obviously bumped into him. "Ohh.. hi Nikolai." Nikolai stared down at her disdainfully, his face scrunched in disgust. "Well apology not accepted." He said sarcastically. "You have eyes, use them bitch." Sabrina chuckled lightly, staring at him with a sweet smile plastered on her face. "It's been so long since I last saw you, how

    *What did he just say?* Eleanor began breathing heavily as her heart suddenly raced faster. She placed her hand on her chest, trying to calm her breaths. She placed her hand on the table beside her as she felt her knees go weak. Eleanor stared around as she tried to understand what he said or maybe she actually understand it. She stared up at prince in shock, into his eyes to see if he was joking. But when she saw the seriousness in his eyes, her heart raced a lot faster. She suddenly wished Gwen was here, maybe she'd have probably told her what to do or say Or maybe she wouldn't even say anything cause she's still hell scared of him. Luciano stared at her as she leaned against the table with eyes wide in shock. It was obvious she was finding it quite hard to process the information and believe it. "I....I...d.. don't..un.. understand." Eleanor stuttered helplessly. "Yes Eleanor. I know this is hard for you to believe but I found out I love you. All those weird foreign feelings,

    "Hey." Gwen called as she spotted Eleanor standing by the window. She closed the door behind her and walked into the room towards the window. "Hey Elly." She moved further into the room when she received no response from her. "Eleanor?" She called again and tapped her shoulder. Eleanor suddenly jerked and snapped her head towards before taking a deep heavy breath. "Oh, hey Gwen." "What's wrong?" Gwen asked staring at her suspiciously. "Wrong? No, no I'm fine." Eleanor replied shrugging her shoulders. Gwen folded her arms together and stared at her with a serious look on her face before speaking. "We're not doing this again Elly. Now tell me what the hell is wrong with you." Eleanor turned to face the window again, heaving out a sign. "It's.. it's the prince." Gwen raised her brows at her in confusion. "Mm-mm what about him?" She asked urging her to continue. "He came to me today." Gwen stared at her with her brows quirked in confusion and curiosity lingering in her eyes. "So w

    "Here's the napkin." Gwen yelled rushing into the room. She handed the bowl of water and napkin to Madam Helen, panting heavily. "Oh dear gods." Madam Helen muttered under her squeezing the water out of the cloth, massaging the affected area. "Come here, just keep cleaning the wound. Let me get the herbs ready." She said handing the napkin to Gwen. After a few minutes later, they both stood over the bed watching Eleanor breath lightly, her chest heaving. Gwen used her palm to wipe the tears off her eyes as she stared at her best friend. She had returned from the kitchen only to find Eleanor lying unconsciously on the ground with blood surrounding her head. "Do you think she'll be okay." Gwen asked in a small voice sniffing lightly. "I don't know yet, child. I think we should inform the prince." "Okay, okay. I'll go tell him now." Gwen said and hurried out of the room. "But-" Madam heaved out a heavy sign staring at Eleanor with concern. * * "Hey, please I need your help." Gwe

    "Luciano stop!" Nikolai yelled running to grab his arm, preventing him from attacking Sabrina. "Just stop it!" Luciano tried to move further but Nikolai grabbed him harder. "Just stop it!" Sabrina stood against the table, her eyes widened in shock and fear as she stared at the two brothers struggling hard against each other. One aiming to probably attack her and the other preventing him. "Just fucking leave her! She's not worth it!" Nikolai yelled pushing him backwards. "Of course she's worth it!" Luciano yelled in pure fury. "How dare she touch her?! Hey! How dare you?!" Sabrina smirked and chuckled humourlessly, she crossed her arms together, quirking a brow at Luciano. "So this whole thing is about that slave? You really wanted to hit me because of her?" She asked. "Actually, I want to." Luciano said through gritted teeth, rushing to her only to be stopped by Nikolai. "Ignore her Luciano, she's only trying to provoke you." "Hey you!" Nikolai called turning to stare at her.

    *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.
