I sat on one of the chairs as I waited for Prince Barlion to return.It's probably been about thirty minutes- or more- since he went to get his bath. And lucky me, the woman that drew him his bath didn't return. Or so I thought she wouldn't return. But she did.When she came back, she didn't even look at me. She just bowed her head and walked in to the bathroom.Again, I saw that same shame and pity she had when she left earlier.I had no idea why she was back, but when she entered the bathroom, she didn't fully close the door like she did before. Instead, she left it slightly opened.In a few seconds, I heard a groan... his groan. My body immediately tensed up as I pictured all sorts of things they might be doing in that bathroom.I had hoped he wouldn't humiliate me for at least a single day or night, but it seems I'm wrong.I tried to stay put, let them do what ever they want to do. Just pretend that I am not even here.I tried to close my eyes and picture my home but the soft no

I woke up the next morning to find the space next to me empty. And with how neat it was, I knew he never came to bed.In whole honesty, I am glad he didn't.Getting out of bed, the first thing I did was grab my thick cloth and cover my face. Even though I need a fresh cloth and white flower powder, I wasn't about to leave this room without it.At first, I was tempted to just leave without saying a word. But I was too scared to anger him. So, I decided that I would see if he is still in the room and inform him that am about to leave before I do.Taking a deep breath, I walked over to the door I saw him walk in to last night and softly knocked on it.At first, there was silence and no one answered. But after I knocked again, I heard his voice."What?" He called out in a husky voice."My lord I need to return to my temporary chambers to change and get my medicine. I wanted to inform you of my leaving before I left."I didn't hear him reply for a few minutes, so I leaned closer to press m

I carefully watched as the man slowly approached me as of he was predator stalking a prey. I didn't like the way he walked, asked his question or smirk. And I ended up taking a step back, causing the man to stop his his track.He glanced down at my feet before another smile crawled its way to his face."I am Dorian Great, son of Lord Dom Great and Lady Cassandra Great. I believe you must have heard of me?" He spoke lazily, as if he had all the time he wanted at his disposal.Dorian Great? No, I don't know him. But if his sir name is Great, then it would mean he is a relative on King Viper Great's side."Dom Great is my father." He commented when he realized that I didn't know which one he was.Still, I gave him no response as I didn't exactly know who Dom Great was.My father had once told me that the King has three younger brother but he never specifically told me their names or who was which.When the man standing infront of me- Dorian Great- realized that I still didn't know him,

My entire vision went dark and the scent of the dust attacked my nose.The dust had rushed towards me to fast that I wasn't able to avoid it in time.The white flower powder scent was over thrown by the dust.The instance the dust got in to my eyes, I let out a loud scream at how much it burned.I scrambled out of my seat but I didn't even make it a step away as my knees buckled and I fell down.My eyes were burning, my entire face was itchy and my throat was closing up.I coughed multiple times and tried to rub the dust out of my eyes by the back of my hands but it did nothing to help.I felt hands on my shoulders and some one was shaking me. But my ears were blocked and ringing.I couldn't hear or see around me and that scared me.Tears escaped my tightly shut eyes and rounds and rounds of sobs escaped my throat.I wanted to rip the thick cloth off my face but I was too scared that it might make it worse.I struggled on the floor and I was close to passing out when I felt myself get

Taking in a deep breath, I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself.It's been three days since I woke up and I am yet to leave my temporary chambers even once.No matter how hard I tried and how much I wanted to leave the chamber, I just couldn't. I don't know what I was scared of. Maybe I was scared that what happed a week ago would happen again?Maybe I was scared that the royals wouldn't want me out after witnessing how ill I really was?Or maybe it was the fact that I didn't want to see any of the royals myself?Mirra had told me that the first day after I passed out, not a single person wanted to walk past my chambers other than Prince Victor and Prince Barlion.And to make it even worse, when Prince Victor asked for a healer, they had refused. I believe the exact words the King had used was that he couldn't risk any of his healer to get sick.That had really broke my heart.It felt weird. On the day that I arrived to the main castle, King Viper was the only person that was wa

The silence was deafening.As soon as the King had called out the two brothers names, everything felt still. The cheers had instantly stopped and the large training hall was suddenly filled with a heavy silence.Prince Barlion stared at his father without his expression changing. But from the settle way his hand squeezed his sword until his knuckles turned white. He tilted his head to the left as he stared at his father.Turning my eyes to the front of the stair chairs, I looked at the highest of the royal family.I couldn't quite see their faces but from how tight the Queen's shoulders were, I could tell that she wasn't happy with what her husband had said. But she didn't oppose."Prince Barlion verses Prince Victor, it is." Sir Hunder announced, forcing out attentions to the center of the training hall.I haven't realized that Prince Victor was among the men training until the very moment he stepped out from with in the crowed of trainees and stepped to the center.Leaning forward,

Softly closing the door behind me, I walked further into his chambers and looked around.I was shocked to see blood on the floor, leaving trails towards the one room he disappeared in to.The knob on that door was bloody as well and I could see fingerprints on the stomach of the door.Without thinking, I quickly rushed to the door and pushed it open.As soon as I walked in, I saw him. Sitting on a chair infront of a bookshelf, bare chest and a large cut on his right side under his arm.A loud gasp escaped my lips as I saw blood flowing out of the wound.When Prince Barlion realized that he was not alone, he looked over his shoulder and glared.No matter how cruel his brown eyes looked, the fact that his face was already lossing color alarmed me more.Unable to stop myself, I rushed over to him and dropped down on my knees to look closer at his wound.The cut was above his waist and a little below his armpit. It's not even a small cut. It was large, long and deep."My goodness..." I wh

Running my fingers through my hair, I let out a sigh.I wanted to take the thick cloth off my face and relieve my skin but I couldn't.What if he wakes up and sees me without my cloth? He would definitely be man, wouldn't he?Letting out another sigh, I looked over to my husband, still sleeping on his bed.It had been a couple of hours since I closed up his cut. And once his head had hit the pillow, he was knocked out and still hasn't woken up.It's dark outside and they would soon be expecting him to join them for dinner.But seeing as he was out cold, there as no way he would make it there.Turning my eyes to him, I watched as a single sweat dripped down the side of his head.I stood up with a cloth in my hand and sat next to him to dab it against his forehead.After wiping the sweat off his forehead and eyebrows, I dropped the cloth on the small table next to his bed and just stared at him.He was still pale and his lips were dry and ashy. He would probably be thirsty when he wakes
