ADRIANNora started working immediately on the information we had. Now, I knew that the only reason why Jackson took Milo was because he wanted his delusion of a family to be complete. Beneath the picture of Jackson, Milo had begun drawing the picture of someone. The face wasn't complete, probably because he ran out of time but he wrote the word “spy” in very small letters. Nora knew who noticed it and showed it to me. I have such a smart boy. So now I know that his spy motion wasn't a goose chase. Milo knows who the person is or else, he wont have written that. “The pictures have been circulated around the pack. Soon, we'll have news about their girl and whose child she is. In the meantime, more gifts arrived.”I'd spent the last few days visiting all the kids that had been returned to their parents. Since I wasn't there for them when they were taken, the least I could do was to see them when they were returned. I knew if Kaya was here, that's what she'd do. “Adrian, what do y
KAYA I left the room just then and returned to study. I had to act like nothing happened or else, I would be the one at risk here. He didn't know I had overheard the conversation and I wanted it to stay that way. He was standing in a spot, with his hand on his chin, looking at the ground when I entered. “Hello.” I said and stood in front of him. “Do you need anything?” Yes, I need you to tell me why the hell you are doing this? What will he get in return? There's no reward for marrying me, as far as I know. At first, I thought it was because of our history that he wanted me back and wanted to marry me but after hearing the conversation earlier today, I wasn't so sure. It was like there was much more that was attached to it. “Yes. I need to ask you a question.”He led me to the sofa and sat down across from me. “Let me hear you.”“Why do you love me? Why me?”He smiled a bit when I asked that question and for a moment, just a split second, I saw the Jackson that I fell for.“
KAYA “Excuse me?”“You never cared about the important things. Always had your head in the clouds, it was sickening. I wanted you to take the throne but you didn't want it. Why didn't you want it? Your younger sister was going to take everything that belonged to you and you were fine with it like a fool.”Now, this was the Jackson I knew. “You should have fought. You should have fought her so hard and even killed her if you could but you didn't. Instead, you stood there like a fool and begged for help from people to come save you from the abuse. It was them I knew that you were never going to be a good Alpha. You were worthless, and sorry.”He started taking steps towards me and I moved back. I moved back because I didn't want him to touch me and hold my hand. He had a very strong grip and there was a high chance that he would hit me if I let him get too close. “It’s your fault I left you! You wanted me to save you from their abuse?! What happened to your hands?! What happened to y
KAYA “How-” the tears in my throat stopped me “How did you find out? I mean, I never knew about this. How did you know?”“Well, unlike you, such a weakling, I don't sit around and wait for people to bring answers to me. When I want something, I go out and get it. I needed to know which one of you your father wanted to give the will to. I didn't have the time to be swinging between the both of you so I needed to make a choice. So I went into his study and I found a journal of the events.”My father kept a journal?“That’s when I knew that you would never get the throne. Your father hated you and your mother so much that if he had the chance, he would have killed you all off a long time ago.”No wonder. No wonder he never gave her the light of day. No wonder, I thought it was because she gave birth to daughters but no. It was just us, just my mother and I. Why didn't he just let us go? I'm sure she would have taken me and left but no. He was a sadist and he wanted her to take care of
KAYA His body fell right in front of me and poured outed from his head as his wide open eyes stared back at me in a daze. I was frozen, as I stared at him. Jackson was dead. Jackson..“Mum!” Milo ran to crouch beside me and pull me up from the floor. “Milo. Did you do this? I mean, how?”The sculpture that he used to hit his head was lying on the floor right next to him and I stared at it, wondering whether it was the force that he had used or the sculpture itself that had done this damage. “How did you do that? How did you know I was here?”“I knew that there was something wrong from the way you were talking so I ran after you and saw you enter here. I waited until the right time and only came in when I saw you were in danger.”I pulled him close to me and placed his head on my chest. “That’s my boy. That's my King. Gosh, Milo. I'm so sorry you had to go through this. You're just a baby but you already had to do so much just because of him. I'm so sorry you got involved in my
ADRIAN It's been a long time. Too long. ”Are you ready?”. Nora stood over me. “Yeah, let's go. Let's go bring them back home.”We led the soldiers to Golden Blade. This time around, I didn't acre what happened. Since I couldn't find the spy, I was going to make sure that I went there and killed Jackson for everything that he has done. “What do you think has happened? Its been a very long time. You know Kaya, what do you think she has achieved?”I didn't know..I didn't want to think about the things she had to do just because of this bastard. “I don't know but something tells me that we're going to fight an already won battle.”Just as I thought, I found Milo and Kaya in the woods. Nora rushed to her side and tried to pick her up from the floor but she cried out in pain and fell back down. “It’s her leg. She had a bad fall.”I was about to ask how she felt and how she managed to get out of the palace but I heard footsteps approaching. “We have company in the South. Get read
ADRIANWe had arrived at the house that night and I asked the doctor to come take a look at Kaya. I didn't know why she didn't heal. Normally, if she had an injury, her body healed by itself. But it didn't, this time around. Maybe it was because of the severity of the injury. The doctor attended to her when she was already knocked out. She was soundly asleep so I left her to rest and went to check on Milo . He wasn't sleeping and I wasn't surprised. How could he sleep after something like that? He was facing outside the window when I entered and he didn't even bother to turn around to look at who entered the room .I just stood behind him, not saying anything as I didn't want to interrupt his thoughts. “I didn't want to kill him. I've never killed anyone before. The thought has never crossed my mind. But I had to. I swung it across his face and cracked his head. There was blood everywhere. I couldn't even look at it, dad. It was everywhere.”I pulled him into me and hugged him t
KAYA When I woke up, I was hungry as hell. It was as if I had not even eaten for days. I didn't know how long I had been knocked out so maybe that would be the reason. I was really pressed and there was no one here. My leg felt like it was being splitted into two so I just sat there with my bladder about to burst. ”Hello?! Is anyone there?!” Maybe even the guards could call for some help, that would be good. The door opened and a guard entered. “My Queen, do you need anything?”“Yes, get me a maid right this instant before I piss myself and get my husband.”He ran out, leaving me there and I wanted to look at my leg but with the way I was feeling, I would just get more irritated. A maid entered and helped me off the end. I sighed in relief when I sat on the toilet and let the liquid flow out of me. I almost died. Now, I could look at my leg and imagine the way- as I stood up from the toilet seat, I felt the vomit at the back of my throat about to come out. Before I could push
KAYADamien and Nancy wanted the kids. Kyle, Conner and Miller, I mean. “Since we can't have kids of our own, what's wrong with taking someone else's?”I mean, I was hoping to track down some of their family but this works even better. I knew that Nancy and Damien would take very good care of the boys. Adrian didn't have an issue with it. What he had an issue with was the fact that Damien didn't want to stay in the pack anymore. “I don't get it though. Everybody knows you're innocent. Why do you have to leave?”I didn't want to be here while they were having this conversation but Adrian walked in while Damien was here. It seemed like he had just heard that Damien wanted to leave. “Adrian, please don't see it as a way to revolt. I just don't want to be here. Everyone here knows that I'm the illegitimate son and I don't nwag to live by that title.”“No one would dare to address you as such. Report anyone who does. I just found you and you're about to leave again? What was the whole
KAYAHaving Adrian back into the house seemed surreal. Seeing him walking along the hallways or hearing his voice with the kids when I walked into the room still seemed new. Damien had been able to track Thomas down and he dragged him in by the hair and dropped him on the floor. “Did anyone order one scumbag? Found him trying to cross the border.”I had nothing to say to him. I called for the guards to take him out. “Put him in the same cell as Damon. I'm sure they'll keep each other company. Damon has a lot he needs to say to him.”I could see the fear in his eyes as he heard his name. I knew it. He was a coward who hid behind his mind games. “As for the boys, they're okay. All three of them are downstairs.”That's good. I was beginning to fear that he would go too far because he was desperate. “Wait, all three of them? Kyle isn't dead?” I brushed past him and almost ran downstairs, trying to make sure that he wasn't playing with me. True to his word, Kyle was standing there
KAYAAdrian and I walked behind him, making sure that he didn't do anything stupid.The reason why I believed his bomb threat was because if he could bug the house without me knowing just so that he could find out info about what was going on, then he'll surely do all he can so that he'll get what he wants. And I wasn't going to gamble with anyone's life.“When are you going to drop the remote? You don't want to leave with it, do you?”Thomas turned around.“What do you want to do with it?”“That has nothing to do with you. You get to leave so I get the remote. I can't trust you.”“You know I can change my mind and press the button. Then, you'll lose everything.”That was a threat.“As long as you go down with me.
KAYAWhat were the odds, what were the odds of Adrian waking up today?If he wasn't standing behind me, I would have said there were a million to one. But those odds didn't seem so anymore.My husband who had been out for seven months had suddenly woken up.My heart was racing fast and the arm pointing the gun at Thomas was shaking because I wanted to put it down and hug my husband.But that's what got us in this mess in the first place, one moment of weakness.Just then, I felt his voice in his ear and it sent shivers down my spine.“Kaya, listen you can put it down. I'm here and I'm not going anywhere. The guards are going to arrest him now.”I saw him speaking to Magda, telling her to drop the gun if she didn't want it used on her. My brain was sti
ADRIANThere was something heavy on my hand. I could hear voices around me but this time around, it was hard for me to make them out. Even though I wasn't awake, I could hear everything that was going on around me and I could feel everything too. I just couldn't move or open my eyes. But not this time. This time, I opened my eyes and stared at the ceiling, breathing heavily and finally feeling less trapped in my own body. I looked around the room and my kids were there. I heard the cooing of a baby and I knew that it was Lana that was by my arm. I wanted to move so that they'd know I was awake but for a moment, I could. Milo was speaking to the twins about something but I could make out what he was saying. My body was sore, which was expected. I didn't even want to know how long I'd been out. It was hard for me to move but I had to. All my joints cracked like I was a mummy just rising up from the dead. And Milo sure as hell looked at me like that. “Dad!” The way he crashed
KAYAI gave Magda back her phone..“Please, excuse me. The maids will get you some tea and we'll find you a room so you can stay for the night. I don't want you going back home tonight.”Nora was standing outside when I left the room. “Nora, send guards to stand in front of Adrian’s room. No one goes in or out. Take all the kids and put them there.”I ran to my room. A few years ago, Milo had given me some weapons to protect myself and I took them out and put them in my belt. “Kaya, what's going on? Do you know who he is?”“I’ve been so stupid. I've been ignoring what has been right in front of me and I didnt-”Tears didn't even let me finish what I was going to say. They choked my throat and did my let me breathe. “Kaya, please calm down. Tell me what is going on?”“That bastard is the doctor! The doctor that I gave the permission to treat Adrian is the one behind everything.”The picture that Magda had shown me was not very clear but it was just clear enough for me to see who h
KAYAI told Milo about the plan and we entered the room. “I can't believe he made a mistake like that. How stupid was that? If he had taken another route at this, then maybe it would appear smarter. But this, is just stupid.”I didn't know where exactly In the room the camera or bug was so we just stood in the middle. “Stella really helped us out. She didn't leave any detail out in her confession. So who do you think her boyfriend is? Of course, Elias is not his real name. I'm not stupid enough to believe that.”Nora opened the door and walked in. “What are you guys doing here? Kaya I finally trac-”“Nora, don't you think that it's weird though? Going for a girl like Stella? Just shows how much he had no class. A maid like Stella? Tch.” If he knew that we had Stella in our custody, maybe he'll see that he had been cornered. “Have the guards lock her up and beat her until she tells us where he is. If that bloody bastard doesn't show up, kill her. He'll show up one way or another.”
KAYA “The maid that takes care of Lana. I bumped into her and it fell to the floor. It seemed like she had been reading it and I saw it when I bent to pick it up.”Lana's maid? There were three maids that took care of Lana. “I saw some content of the letter. Something about a tux. I didn't see it well because she snatched it from me and walked away immediately like she was on fire. I just figured it was something personal.”A tux? Why would he want anything to do with a tux? Maybe Milo didn't see it properly. “Wait Milo, did you say a tux?” He nodded. “Kaya, the toxins. The ones the doctors spoke about. Milo didn't see “tux.” He saw “toxin”. She's the one who's been-”I shook my head to stop her from talking. I hadn't told the kids about Adrian's poisoning yet. She's the one who had been poisoning him. “Get all the maids that take care of Lana and bring them here. I don't care if you have to wake everyone in the kingdom up.” Nora left and I decided to tell Milo what was go
KAYAI now believed when Nora said that the house had been bugged.We figured that they might be somewhere in the woods. Besides, that's the only place that Kyle would be able to grab a flower.So we decided to search the woods for them..it was actually quite hard to move around because the forest was very thick and it was almost impossible to cut down the vines that were hanging around.We walked around for a while until we finally saw a house in the woods. That's very strange and there was smoke coming out of the chimney so I knew that someone was at home.We approached the house quietly, surrounding it and bursting in immediately to meet an empty house.The men went in to search the inner rooms and they came back with nothing. How could this happen? Or did we come to the wrong place?“M
