I leaned my head back against the tub and closed my eyes. Every time I do that, I see Sir Marge jumping towards me with his dagger. Then I see his lifeless body laying on the ground with my small silver dagger sticking from the side of his neck.I let out a sigh before I opened my eyes back up.The quite bathroom did so little to calm me. Even though Mirra had pored some scented oils to ease the tension from my muscles, I was sitting really tense.Drawing my knees up to my chest, I wrapped my arms around them but I instantly regretted it when the wound on my shoulder burned.Letting out a hiss, I let my knees go and fall back.Mirra, like the collected sister that she is, helped me off the floor after I'd spilled my guts all over the marvelous carpet, took me to the bathroom, helped me wash to blood off and stitched my wound.The stab had not been too deep so there was no need to call for Lord Kiza. Mirra knew how to take care of it. She applied some herbs over the cut and wrapped it
I looked down at the basket filled with green jewelries but my hands never made a move to reach for any one if them.The tea gallery was oddly quite and Lady Sity was late. Her seat still lay empty and I was eager to see her.If she was truly the one who sent Sir Marge, then I'm sure she will react in some ways.I had almost cancelled this weekends tea gallery meeting just like I did last time. But I couldn't miss it.My shoulder was aching and there was a throb right between my eyes. My lower lip and a bit swollen from the back hand Sir Marge had delivered but they wouldn't be able to see it as my thick cloth had covered it.My hands though, if I was to reach for a jewelery, they will be able to see the cuts on my right hand.I lifted her eyes to look at the lady royals sitting around me. It was the usual arrangement. The younger royals sat around me except for julia. The other woman still blamed me for her brother's exile. It's either that, or she's scared I might hold a grudge on h
Mirra wrapped a fresh bandage around my shoulder, pulling in under my armpit before she rounded the wound again and took the bandage to the other shoulder to make sure it's secured.I let out a heavy breath as soon as she's done. The herbs she applied over the wound was pulling at the pain, making the cut throb to the point where I just want to rip mu entire arm off to stop the pain.I glanced at Barlion and a frown took over my face. I was stabbed in the shoulder but he was stabbed in the chest.I couldn't imagine the amount of pain he was in and it made me thankful that he's sleeping through the healing process so he won't hurt more.It made me feel really bad.A soft knock on the door caught my attention and I watched as Mirra walked over to the door and slowly pull it to peek at who it was.I didn't hear what the other person said but Mirra nodded her head before she closed the door and walked over to me."My Queen, a girl named Bella came looking for you. She said Lady Waina sent
I watched in shock as Victor walked… Stumble in to the chambers. His light green eyes were moving around the room before they landed on me. His lips stretched in to a small smile and he tried to walk over to me, only, he tripped on his own feet and landed on the floor,That’s when the heavy scent of alcohol hits me.Victor lets out a soft groan before he struggled back to his feet.My eyes jumped over to Sir Shadow who was still lying on the floor without moving a muscle before they returned to Victor.“There you are. I’ve been looking all over for you.” Victor commented before he started walking over to me.My first reaction was to walk backwards to protect myself but if I walk away then Barlion will be vulnerable. So, I stayed right where I was by the dining table.“What are you doing here, Victor? And what did you do to my guard?”Victor looked at me with confusion, his flushed face wrinkling as he looked over his left shoulder to look at Sir Shadow.“Oh, him?” Victor asked. “I
I glanced at Victor as he called out for the next case. I was shocked and if I didn't have my thick cloth covering half of my face, I'm more than certain that the rest of the people would notice my shock as well.It's been two hours since we got in the court room and Victor has been calling out the cases by their right orders and not once did he draw back a case on purpose to drag in out and make m sweat.When court started, Victor was not here and after a few minutes, Lord Hero was about to step in but Victor showed up. Other than the slight redness to his eyes, one can't be able to tell that he was drunk off his feet just the previous night. He marched in to the court hall, ran up the stairs and bowed his head to apologize for being late. The he asked for his seat next to the throne and Lord Hero gave it up without hesitation. Victor sat at the smaller seat in the court hall and started calling out the cases by their orders. He was not sneaky about it either. The four to five ho

I waited in our chambers by the king's quarter for Sir Hunder and Sir Dominic to return from the dungeons from underneath the main castle.Upon my return from my little visit at the large library, the rest of our little group and I had read Lady Sity's time as a Queen and the very first paragraph had caught our attention.It stated that Queen Sity, before taking the crown and a bow from the people of Gold Land Kingdom, had a different name, one she was given when she was born. The name was written in a different language and Lord Jeremy recognized it to be Half Shifter Language.The words were long, too long to be a person's name and Lord Jeremy was finding it hard to translate it to English. That was when Sir Dominic spoke up.'There are a few uses we can put to the Half Shifter tied up underneath the main castle.' Was what he said and the rest of us immediately understood.So, Lord Jeremy wrote the words down on a neat paper before he handed it to the two Knight, who immediat
I bit the nail of my thumb after I placed the crown on top of my head, something I’ve been doing a lot lately.Mirra pulled my hand away from my lips with a frown. Ever since she had found out the truth about Barlion’s birth and Sity’s betrayal, she had been more worried about me. She worries for my safety and has been advising me against going to the tea gallery. I’d wanted to listen to her but I also wanted to face Sity head on.I can’t win this game if I don’t get to see my opponent in the eyes and try to guess their next move."I really wish you wouldn’t go to the tea gallery today.” Mirra whispered but didn’t say another word to stop me as she already knew that it would be useless.Mirra handed me my thick cloth before she turned around and walked out of the chambers.It’s been four days since we found out the whole truth about Sity and they have been oddly calm. The group and I decided that we can’t just attack Sity. That would be very reckless, especially since we don’t have a
