The Kings Captive CHAPTER 63 : SHOCKING DISCOVERY
(VERA’s POV)I felt a pang of sadness as I looked at him. He had been a good man, a man who had served the king and the kingdom with honor and integrity. But he had been weak, and Ikigan had taken advantage of that weakness. I understood how frail a human could be at certain situations. "I forgive you," I said finally, my voice firm. "But you have to promise me one thing."Captain Orion looked up at me, his eyes filled with hope. "Anything," he said. "I'll do anything to make it right.""You have to promise me that you'll testify against Ikigan," I said. "You have to promise me that you'll help me bring him to justice."Captain Orion nodded, his face set in determination. "I promise," he said. "I'll do whatever it takes to make it right."I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. It was a start, a small step towards healing and redemption.But as I walked away from Captain Orion's cell, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had been growing inside me. My faith in Sylvest

(VERA’s POV) "So, what do you want? What exactly are you up to..?" I spat, trying to keep my voice steady. My heart was racing, and my mind was reeling with the implications of Prince Arin's words."I want you to make a choice," Prince Arin said, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I want you to choose between the king and your sister.”“You see, I have both of them within my reach. In one or two orders, the least you expect might happen! So, if you don't do exactly as I say, I'll make sure that they both suffer the consequences."I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. How could Prince Arin do this to me? How could he be so cruel and heartless? I thought of all the times I had tried to reason with him, to appeal to his better nature. But now, I realized that he had no better nature. He was a monster, and he would stop at nothing to get what he wanted.As I looked into Prince Arin's eyes, I saw something there that made my blood run cold. I saw a deep-seated hatred and resentment, a d

(VERA’s POV)I returned to the palace, exhausted but elated about our triumphant victory on the battlefield. But, as i entered the grand hall, I was greeted by a flurry of activities. Servants scurried about, carrying trays of food and drinks, while guards stood at attention, their eyes were just scanning the room for any sign of danger.At the center of it all was Sylvester, the king's advisor. He stood tall and imposing, his eyes was gleaming with such a fierce intensity as he addressed the audience in the room."My lords and ladies," he began, his baritone voice booming off the stone walls. "We gather here today to address a growing threat to our kingdom. The enemy we defeated on the battlefield was just the beginning. We have reason to believe that a far greater threat is looming on the horizon, one that requires our immediate attention.."I watched as the room erupted into a flurry of conversation, with lords and ladies arguing and debating the best course of action. i knew that I

(VERA’s POV)As I wandered through the castle, my mind couldn't help but drift back to the events of the past few days. The memory of Sir Arthur's bravery and selflessness still lingered in my mind, filling me with a sense of gratitude and awe. If it hadn't been for him, i would have been at the mercy of Sylvester's cruelty and malice. But Sir Arthur had risked everything to save me, and for that, I would be eternally grateful.But as I walked, my thoughts began to turn to the conversation I had with Shaun. He had revealed something to me that hadleft me reeling - something that had made me question everything I thought I knew about myself."A Lycan hybrid?" I whispered to myself, the words feeling like a punch to the gut. Me? A creature of myth and legend? It couldn't be true. And yet, deep down, I knew it was. The signs had been there all along - my unusual strength, my heightened senses, my inexplicable connection to the moon..As I walked, the familiar walls and corridors seemed to

(VERA’s POV)I sat in stunned silence, my eyes fixed on Sylvester's face as he delivered the blow that would shatter my heart into a million pieces. The words hung in the air like a challenge, a cruel and heartless declaration that cut me to the very core of my being."You never loved me, did you?" I whispered, my voice barely audible over the pounding of my heart. The Question was a desperate plea, a last-ditch attempt to cling to the shattered remains of my dreams..Sylvester's expression was cold, calculating. "Love?" he repeated, his voice dripping with disdain. "You were a means to an end, Vera. A way for me to gain power and control. Nothing more."The words were like a slap in the face, a cruel and heartless rejection of everything I had thought our marriage was. I felt like I had been punched in the gut, like all the air had been sucked out of my lungs. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. All i could do was sit there, staring at Sylvester in horror."How could you do this to

I had been trapped here for what felt like an eternity, with no clear way to escape.But as I sat there, I began to think about the words of the castle servant, Elara. She had whispered to me in the darkness, telling me that there were those who would help me escape.At the time, I had thought it was just a cruel joke, a way to give me false hope. But now, as I sat in the darkness, I began to wonder if there was truth to her words.Maybe, just maybe, I wasn't alone.
