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
KAYAMaybe it was the fact that he thought I had forgotten or maybe it was the fact that he thought I didn't see him but the Chief Guard returned like nothing happened. I didn't even see him. Milo was the one who saw him and ran to my room. “Mum! The Chief Guard.”Since he woke me up from sleep, I stared at him for some moments before my brain kicked in. “He’s back?”Milo nodded and I was about to get down from the bed when I remembered that I couldn't walk by myself anymore. The crutches hurt my armpit and I didn't like using them. “Get me your father now. If he's with the Chief Guard, don't bother saying anything until he leaves.”He nodded and ran out but I stopped him when he got to the door. “Milo, try not to look suspicious. Just be you.”How could he be the spy? It just didn't make sense. What was in it for him? I could have never asked Jackson what his connection to him was. But as much as I could think about it, try shouldn't be connected in any way. I never knew any o
KAYA Nora was right. I was pregnant..I also didn't believe it when the doctor told me..I gave birth to my daughter, Lana last week. She was the most beautiful thing to ever exist and I felt like I'd fallen in love all over again. She came out looking like Adrian which pissed me off so much. “According to my father, a girl has not been born into this family in ten centuries. But you, my Queen, gave me a daughter. You made me a special father and I love you for that.”“So you weren't a special father when you had us?” Milo asked. Adrian barely turned around to look at him. “Shoo, everyone has seen you. I'm speaking to my wife and my daughter.”I laughed..”She’s going to be so spoiled.”Adrian was very good at spoiling kids and that's why Adrian was going to be just as his father was. Spoilt. “You can say that again. She's going to be daddy's girl. My little princess.”She made me happy and she made all of us happy. She was a blessing. Adrian had to leave because a guard called
KAYA I followed them downstairs, not being able to sit there anymore. I was not going to sit there when a psychopathic murderer was on the loose with no one knowing his whereabouts. Nora and Adrian were talking in hushed voices and I walked up to them to hear what they were saying. But they stopped talking as soon as they noticed my presence. “What’s going on? What's the update?” They looked at each other and I didn't like it. “Can someone tell me what's going on?”Nora walked away while Adrian turned to me and grabbed my shoulders. “Kaya, you don't have to worry, okay? I assure you that I'll take care of everything. You won't have to worry. I'm working to make sure that he's caught. It won't be long now.”I knew that he could catch him quickly but it didn't give me a sense of relief, especially the fact that he was not in chains. “Why didn't you just get rid of him when you had the chance? Killing him would not have affected her birth, you know?*I wasn't blaming him for t
KAYA I screamed. With everything in me, I screamed. It only took Adrian two seconds to come flying into the room. “What’s going on?”It only took him another two seconds to access the room and see the blood. “Where’s the baby? What happened to her? Why's there blood? Whose blood is that? Where is she?”I couldn't move. I just stood there looking at the empty blanket as if I could see her.Nora joined us in the room. “What happened?”I don't know what Adrian said to her because I had already disconnected by that time. My legs went away and I fell to the floor. My chest was heavy and my breathing heavier as my brain tried to remember where the hell my baby was. Adrian came to crouch beside me and he shook my shoulders. “Kaya, now's not the time to cry. Where is the baby?”I opened my mouth to talk but nothing came out. I just stayed staring at him.“Kaya ! Say something! Where is my child?!”Him shouting at me got me scared and it pushed back the words I wanted to say. “Adria
KAYA It had been six months since the incident. Six months since I'd last seen and held my husband in my arms. I remembered that day like it was yesterday. Having to watch my husband's blood decorate the floor like paint while I could only cry and scream.I'd never felt so many emotions all at once.“Adrian, stay with me. You cant leave me, not now. Please. The doctor will soon be here.”I knew that wasn't true but at that point, I couldn't bring myself to believe anything else. “I didn't mean to do that. That was a mistake. He moved too quickly.”Adrian held my hand, seeing that I was going to go after him. Don't.”. His voice was a whisper “I don't have time. Take care of the kids. Tell them I'm sorry for not coming back and tell Lana- tell my daughter that I loved her and I always will.”His hand that was grasping mine went limp and his eyes that were once trained on me lost focus. The tears suddenly dried from my eyes and the pain in my heart disappeared. I brought his head
KAYA I saw him. Mark. I saw him standing over her with a knife in his hand and I screamed but he wouldn't stop plunging the knife into her. I ran to stop him and that's when I realized that I had been chained to the wall. He cackled loudly, disturbing my ears and tears blinded my vision. “You will suffer. I will kill all your children, Luna. And you will stand by and watch.” To the side, I saw Milo and the twins also being held by men and I couldn't do anything. All I could do was beg. Cry and beg. “You can't do anything to save them, Luna. You can't. So give it up and give me what I want.”My body was getting weak from trying to get out of these chains. But my daughter was with him and I needed to see her. “I don't know what you want. Tell me and I'll give you.”I noticed that the chains were falling off the wall.With one strong pull, I should be able to get them off. And that's what I did. I used yeh chains to hit him across the face, causing him to fall to the ground
ADRIAN It was taking too long for them to bring him to me so I went out myself. “What the hell is the hold up? Why can't you find him?”“I have no idea, Adrian. I don't know. He was just here right now.”This was insane. Did that mean I couldn't trust any of my men anymore? Why were they dead if he had put them in the cells himself? “The men said they last saw him a few minutes ago walking out of the cells. Of course, they didn't suspect a thing.”This was bullshit. Cold blooded murder right under my nose. The audacity! “Get men out there! None of them are to come back until they come with a solution. They should bring him back here!”She began walking away. “And Nora ! Tell Allister to bring himself back here. I need him now.”I couldn't even remember where he was because of the amount of things clouding my mind. “I'll let him know, Alpha. I'll be out in the field if you need me.”All I could do was wait until they returned. In the meantime, I remembered that he had dropped
ADRIAN“You didn't know he wanted to harm the princess?! What did you think a random stranger asking you for such a thing wanted to do? Give her a surprise party?!”If I was employing such stupid guards, I wonder what else has gone wrong in this house because of them. “What else did you do?” “I found them and told them about the plan. He said he was going to pay us as soon as the job was done.”If they were there, that means they saw them when the baby was taken. I asked the two others who were on the second floor. “No, as soon as they passed, they asked us to leave. Their faces were covered with a hood. It was only later we learnt of the princess's abduction.”So these men stood by while my daughter was being taken. “And just like that, they left. They took the child and left.”Well at least, I'm getting somewhere. That meant that Mark wasn't working alone. That meant he had someone else working for him, most definitely on the inside as usual. “Take them away. I don't want to
ADRIANI grabbed the note pad and ran out of the room, going to our room to look for her. How did she- That's why she was with Nora during the interview. “Alpha, we found something.”I stopped to look at Peter. “Can it wait? I have something to do right now.”“No, it can't. It needs your urgent attention..I think you should see this.” What the hell could it be? “Fine then, what is it?”I went downstairs with him. Two guards were standing in the centre ground, with clothes in their hands. “Is that what I think it is?”They were Lana's clothes. And it had their blood on them. “Alpha, that's not the only thing we found.” I didn't like his tone. I didn't want to believe it. No, it couldn't be..“Whatever it is, can wait. Not a word of this to anyone..not a single soul. Not even Nora , do I make myself clear? Take them and keep them in my office along with whatever you found. Not a soul!”I walked away, leaving them there. If Mark harmed my daughter…I wouldn't be able to stand i
ADRIANThat bastard had the guts to come into my house and take my child.After everything that he had done, this was more than he could chew. No one knew what had happened aside from Nora and Kaya . I wanted to keep it that way. We would find him one way or another with my baby safe and sound. Kaya wasn't saying anything. Not just to me, to anyone. I'd asked Nora if she'd spoken to her and she said no. When I tried to approach her, she walked away.It was driving me nuts and I needed to know what she was doing. “Adrian , I need your help. Can you recognize Lana's smell?”Nora handed me the blanket still stained with blood and it got my stomach in a knot but I didn't let it show. “Yes, I can.”“I need to make sure that it's her blood. At least, we'll know that she's safe and sound.”The entire blanket smelt like her so it won't be hard to figure out if someone else's scent was mixed up somewhere. But when I smelt it, it was just her. “I will kill him, Nora . I will give
KAYA I screamed. With everything in me, I screamed. It only took Adrian two seconds to come flying into the room. “What’s going on?”It only took him another two seconds to access the room and see the blood. “Where’s the baby? What happened to her? Why's there blood? Whose blood is that? Where is she?”I couldn't move.
