“That's her secretary. Why would Sandy fail to mention that she called Lucy on the day she died?”

Or did she have something to hide too?

Nora chimed in.

“I don't think she forgot. Sandy remembers details. I think she intentionally left that part out.”

But if it didn't mean anything, why would she leave that part out?

“Is there any record of the conversation?”

He turned the laptop screen to me.

“I couldn't find anything. It's like she called and ended the call immediately. It was barely a second.”

Was that intentional or was it a mistake?

“What time did her call come in?”

He turned the screen back to himself.

“Eleven thirty.”

I was trying to create a timeline but the evidence wasn't enough.

“I think I need to speak to her again. Nora, can you get her on the phone for me? Don't alert her about anything. Just tell her that we urgently need her for something and that we will send a guard to pick her up.”

It was actually quite late and I didn't know if the commissioner w

    KAYAI slowly got up from the bed because Lana was so unpredictable. Sometimes, she was a light sleeper and other times, even an atomic bomb wouldn't wake her up. This time around, she was the latter. I slowly backed away from her until I was out the door. “Why are you sneaking out of her room?” “Jesus Christ! Milo!” I had to hold my chest so that my heart won't fall out. He didn't seem fazed that he had just scared the crown off me. I opened the door again to check on Lana to make sure that she was still asleep. “Why’re you sneaking out of her room though?” This kid would be the end of me. “Maybe you wouldn't have seen me here if you were in your room sleeping. I'm the adult here. What are you doing here?”I pulled him along with me. “I always check on Lana every night before I go to bed. I just got back from the Twins’ rooms.”He does that? I never noticed. “Are you asleep yet?” He looked at me like I should know the answer to that. “Pretending to be. I told them to do t

    KAYA“Its nothing, My Queen. I couldn't sleep either ways so this just gives me something to do.” “Perfect..I just have a question to ask you. I've been doing some digging recently and I've found out a few things. Also, a few things have happened.” She seemed comfortable, straight like she had nothing to hide. Or maybe she was just good at doing so. “We finally found Lucy's phone and according to the records, it shows you called her the day she was killed. Did you forget to mention that or did you intentionally leave that out?” Her strong gaze faltered and for the first time since tonight, she looked at the walls. “It seems I forgot to mention it.” “Sandy, I'm sure you know that whether you tell me or not, I will find it out myself. With or without your help. I just called you here as a formality or would you rather I began to see you as a suspect?” “No! Don't do that..I have nothing to hide. I would never do anything to harm Mrs Lucy.”Then I guess we were on the same track.

    KAYA“Nora, get me the detective on the phone.”I didn't know how much of what I was seeing here was reliable. At this point, I didn't even care what time.it was. Everybody was going to be awake. She put the phone on speaker when he picked up. “Detective, sorry for calling so late. It says here that you found a pregnancy test packet on the kitchen island. Did you ever see the pregnancy test itself?” His voice was groggy. “No, my Queen. We searched everywhere, even the bin but we never found it. We figured that she must have disposed of it. Since we were going with the theory that she was cheating on her husband, we figured that she disposed of it so he wouldn't find out. We thought that he had seen the pregnancy test and that's what made him kill her.”Well, that was far from the truth. I needed to see Tim. “Let me know if you find anything new.” If Lucy had taken a pregnancy test that day, why was it missing?.“Sandy, you said you called her but you ended the call.” “I did, so

    KAYAJust as I'd thought, Tim wasn't asleep when I got there. I'd gotten a report that he barely slept anymore. As a matter of fact, all he did was sit in the corner of his cell and sulk. His wife had been dead for over a year but still, he had the reaction of a man whose wife was dead for just a few days. This was the man they really arrested for her murder? How could they do that? “Tim. Hey. I'm so sorry for disturbing you.”He stood up immediately and walked over. “My Queen! How can you be here so late? What is the matter?”“There is nothing wrong,Tim. I just had something to ask you. Can I come in?”He looked at me, obviously shocked to see me by this time. He also looked at the guards behind me. “By all means, My Queen.”The guards opened the door and he brought the chair for me. “Now Tim, I'm going to need you to think really hard to that day. I know that your mind was divided because of what you saw and you weren't really concentrating but do you remember seeing a pregna

    KAYAI woke up even before my alarm clock. I jumped out of bed and into the shower. It was particularly cold that morning and I didn't know why. I decide to wear jean shorts and a tank top. I didn't remember the last time I was free to dress like this. I was in my husband's house and I could wear whatever the hell I liked. The guards and the maids seeing me in this would not faze them. They had seen me in this before. I knew Adrian wouldn't say anything about it. Naturally, I wasn't supposed to be walking around wearing things like this because of my position. Even Nora couldn't dress like this but it was so damn hot and somehow, I happen to be a friend of the King. Besides, I'm sure everyone could see how hot it was. Or could they? I was the only one who was sweating. As I walked down the hallway, I received stares from the passing maids and guards. I could swear I saw some maids smiling. I went to check on Lana and her maid was already there. She turned around and just froze

    KAYAAfter I checked on Milo and seeing if he was doing okay, the maids brought Lana to me. “I see the little Princess is finally awake.”Nora curtsied in front of her. “My Princess, tell me to rise. My knees are weak.”Lana, who didn't know what was going on, just laughed and clapped. “Lana, my knees. I'm falling! I'm falling!” When she hit the ground, Lana looked over her high chair and Nora lay motionless on the floor. She wasn't smiling anymore and she looked at me, like she wanted me to do something. “Bob! Bob!”Nora looked up at her. “Lana, for the last time, my name is Nora. Not Bob!” As she stood up, Lana stretched her arms out for Nora to carry her. “Bob!”“Ooh, you're so lucky you're cute. You can call me anything you want to.”Breakfast finally arrived and I could see that Lana wanted nothing to do with it. She just wanted to be left alone to play with her toys so I put her in her toy pit. “She’s growing up so fast. I remember the day you pushed her out.”“Trust me

    KAYA Did they do this together? Tobias didn't seem like a killer. “I sent him to look for Alisha's hideout. Maybe that was the wrong thing. Nora, find out where he is and tell him to drop what he's doing and come here immediately. Also, where are you with those phone records?”“You’ll have them by the end of the day. I'll call Tobias now. Oh, and I was thinking. Maybe we should call Sandy.”What she said didn't register in my head so I just nodded. “Yeah sure.”Had Tobias killed Alisha? Maybe she wanted to expose their relationship and he had to kill her. But even if he had exposed their relationship, it wouldn't mean anything to me. Them being in a relationship would not implicate him in any way. Or would it? Nora was about to leave the room when I figured out what she had said. “Wait, did you say you wanted to call Sandy? Why? We already spoke to her yesterday.” “Yeah, well she said something about Lucy being poisoned to lose the baby. I want to speak to the doctor that tre

    KAYA “Answer the question, Tobias.” He loosened the tie around his neck. “Yes, I heard you but I don't understand why the questions are taking this path. His favorite color is blue.”Just the answer I'd been hoping to hear. “So why do you have a purple key chain?”He looked down at the table and then at me. “My key chain? Is that what this is about? I have it because my son saw it and liked it and decided to get it for me.”I could see that he thought I was dumb and he was also getting aggravated by my line of questioning. He picked up the key chain and put it in his pocket but he didn't know that even the things that weren't obvious, I could tell that he was hiding something. He was acting all guilty. “You want me to believe that your son saw a purple key chain and decided to get it for his dad.”I knew that there was a probably that it might have happened. I'm not trying to restrict one color to a gender but just from the way his eyes were shifting to the floor, I knew that

    KAYA It was the middle of May. Milo had come back home to spend some time with us. After his coronation, he had left the pack to spend time living as a normal person so that he would understand what it means to live among the people. Adrian didn't like it because he felt like Milo could be learning about the kingdom rather than doing all that but the boy's mind had been set. I could understand where they were both coming from but since it was what he wanted, I couldn't stop him and neither could his father. The only condition Adrian gave him was that he would stay with Roy. If he stayed with Roy, then his heart would be more at peace knowing that he was with someone he trusted. Roy loved the idea of Milo being over and so since the beginning of the year, he had been there. When I told him it was his father's birthday, he knew he had to come back. This time around, we didn't want a big celebration. Although since it was an official holiday, the entire kingdom knew and the

    KAYA There was finally time for Milo's coronation. We had been putting it off for so long but now, we were going to make it happen. It had taken me a week to make all preparations because I wanted this to be perfect. I'd sent out the invitations earlier to everyone and made sure everything down to the last detail was ready. Milo was very excited about this and I could see how much this meant to him. He and Adrian had been spending the week together because Adrian said it was part of his hazing ceremony to welcome him into the circle of Kings. Unlike the forest his father had left him in for a week to find for himself, he wanted to do things that he hadn't done with Milo before like fishing and hunting. The party was tonight and I just got a call from the tailor that there had been some issues with the clothes. Milo's clothes to be exact. I didn't want to lose it because I knew I had to find a solution one way or another and I had to find it fast. I hurried over to the

    KAYATWO MONTHS LATERMaybe I was the one who was mad. Maybe I was losing it. As soon as the maid told me I ran out of my room and went downstairs. The madness in this house had to stop. I had endured tol much from that bitch and maybe she thought that since I was quiet, I was stupid but not again. The kitchen door was locked just as I thought it would be. “Selena! You stupid bitch! Open the door!” I could hear her moving around inside and she laughed. “Oh, I see they came to report to you again. As I told them, I'll be cooking Adrian's food today. I mean, after all. I'm basically just a second wife.”Second wife?! In what universe?! The maids said that before they woke up, she had locked herself in the kitchen and they couldn't even make breakfast for the twins to take to school. “Are you nuts? This is my house and my kitchen! Open the damn door!” “Why don't you kick it o

    KAYA When we got to the grave site, we were amazed because it wasn't your normal six feet. “She was claustrophobic. I don't think it'd be fair to give her a tight grave.” We could understand that and we stayed there with him when he said things to her and told her how much he loved her and missed her. It rained earlier that day so maybe that just made the whole thing gloomier. We went back to the house with the guests. The food has been ready since last night and we just stood in a corner while Roy attended to his guests. The kids had to stay upstairs because we didn't want thtme to be down here. It was only Roy's son that was down here. “Thank you so much for coming, everyone. I really appreciate you for being here. My wife would have been so happy to know that there were many people who actes about her. Its just said that it's only at her death that we had this crowd. I don't really have much to say but I l

    KAYAWe couldn't stay with Roy even though we wanted to. Adrian was the King, there was no way that he would not sleep in the house. Well, at least that's what Roy had been trying to tell him for the past hour but it was like everything he said went over his ears. He didn't want to hear any of it. “Roy, this is not just a condolence visit. It's a friendly visit. You've been my friend for years and you don't expect me to go home when you need me. I need to stay here with you.” Roy looked drained. I didn't like that Adrian was arguing with him but then again, Adrian wasn't going to stop until he got what he wanted. He turned to me for help and all I could do was just stare at him. “Kay, please say something.”I didn't want to tell him not to worry because there was nothing that he was going to say that would make Adrian change his mind but I didn't say that. I also know that it was a technique to take Roy's mind

    KAYAThe morning came with bad news. I was still in bed when Lorian came to wake me up that Adrian and Nora were going out. At first, I didn't understand what he was talking about because I was so sleepy. Adrian had kept me up late last night talking and talking and making sure that I had forgiven him. I picked up my robe and ran out of the room because he was dragging me out. Luckily, I got outside before the car drove off. “Adrian, what's going on? Is everything okay?”He turned around to look at me. “Roys wife is dead. We just got a call now. We're going there to see him. I didn't want to wake you up.”The words couldn't form in my mouth. I just stayed there and stared at him. Roy's wife is dead. “Go, I'll meet up with you later.”As the car drove off, I just watched it go. In the end, the cancer had won. Gosh, I couldn't imagine what he would be going through right now.

    ADRIANIt was like she had developed some kind of power because with the way she was walking, I found it so hard to catch up with her. Even when I tried to hold her hand, she wouldn't let me. “Kay, please wait. Let me speak to you.”If I couldn't hold her hand, I would have to hold her legs because I could let her use anger to ruin this. “What’s the whole point of talking? Do you know how long we've been talking for? There's no use. There's only action now.”Thankfully, Nora appeared since we had passed her room and she had heard the noise. “What is going on?”I had to tell her through a mind link since I couldn't risk anyone else hearing what I had said. The walls had ears. “I knew something was up with the way they just appeared out of nowhere. Where did you get a gun?”I wondered when she had seen a gun in my hand and then I realized that she was speaking to Kaya. I slowly grabbed

    ADRIAN I knew that I was the last person that she wanted to see but I still had to go see her. Now that things were finally over, it was the right time to see her. Normally, I should have waited until she got enough sleep so that she won't feel irritated when i woke her up. Her being irritated would just make things harder for us to talk out. But I was already at her door and I couldn't go back. Wait, why couldn't I go back? She doesn't know I'm here yet. Yes, I should let her sleep and then come back in the morning when she's well rested. As I turned my back to leave, I heard footsteps and then the door opened. We ended up looking at each other for a while before I came closer to the door. “Hey, I thought you'd be asleep and I didn't want to wake you up.”She looked at me with her eye half open. “No, you knew I was awake. You were scared. Come in.” Of course, she knew. I stepped int

    KAYA “You were the one who packed up and left our three day old child in the hospital! You left me for over sixteen years and you think that I won't move on? I shouldn't even be looking for you to begin with but I didn't so that out son will have closure and you blame me for loving a woman who had a very good heart and cared for me?” The whole thing was conflicting because to an extent, I could understand what Alisha has gone through and how that shaped her life but what I couldn't understand was how Lucy got caught in her crazy web. “It doesn't matter if I left. You can't fall in love with my best friend or the woman I've loved for years! Its not fair. On top of all that, you only used me for sex. I hated all of you. I hated you and I hated Tim. But I couldn't hate Lucy. She was just the victim in all of this. I was sure that if she could understand that I truly loved her, then we would be together. She was the only one who only ever understood me. She knew my story, she knew abou
