“Ohh,” Nikolai stared at her suspiciously for a few seconds before brushing off the look from his face. “You miss me?” He chuckled amusingly.

“Yes, I slept literally the entire day and didn’t see you.” She let out a small laugh, trying to sound quite convincing as possible.

“Well, good thing you had enough rest.” He held her shoulders, staring down at her affectionately. Gwen had to avoid his eyes, afraid that he might see through her eyes that she’s actually lying to him and keeping a very big secret from him.

“I….I... I have to go.” She moved a few meters away from him, tucking her hair behind her ears.

“Huh?? But you just got here.” Nikolai’s face mirrored confusion immediately. “Besides, you said you missed me.”

“Yes.” She chuckled nervously, scratching her hair. “I just want to check on a few things and I’ll be back.”

“Ohh...” Nikolai looked like he didn't believe her but chose not to question her anyway. Besides she might really have work to do here, considering the position she

    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.

    *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

    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

    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

    “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

    “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

    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?

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."

    *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
