" What?'" The word flew out her mouth before she had a chance stop to it, her back breaking into a cold sweat. Maya blanched at his words as she stared at him, fear immediately filling her.

" B-but who would do that? He was on his way to Gegoria!? What's going to happen now?" She asked, confused.

" I have to find out who's responsible for this and him as well." Dexter replied calmly but his eyes had grown several shades darker. He clicked his tongue, obviously displeased. "It was hard enough to catch him the first time and this happens again."

Maya gazed down at her hands, an intense feeling of guilt and fear washing over her. Dexter saw her changed expression and immediately reached for her. Tilting her face up so she could look at him, he spoke calmly. "You don't need to look so disheartened, I'll find him I promise." Then he glowered. "This time, I'll take care of him myself."

" But... I can't help but be worried. " She muttered, gazing at him. "What if something bad happen

    The palace broke into a frenzy afterwards, with maids and guards rushing in and out of the king's chambers. With a terrified heart, Maya barked out orders but she still couldn't wait for the doctor to arrive before Dexter received treatment. Having had her own share of poisoning attempts, she knew how dangerous this things could be. "What time is the doctor arriving?" She asked, as she paced around the room, her voice strained. By now the king was already in bed, shielded from sight. " He should be here soon, Your Majesty." Rosa replied, equally worried. Maya glanced at Dexter who was already losing color. She can't wait till the doctor arrives. He might have been dead by then. Banishing the thought, she turned to Rosa, a frantic look in her eyes. "Get me all of the herbs that are available in the palace, mortar and pestle, a pot and a jar of water. Hurry!" She rushed back to his side, tears slipping out of her eyes. "Please, Dexter. Stay with me. You'll be fine and

    It was already late by the time Maya finished with her duties and headed back to the chambers, exhausted. Rubbing her stiff neck, she trudged to the bed where she checked on Dexter who was still unconscious. She swallowed the lump growing in her throat, placing the back of her hands on his forehead. His body was still burning hot, sweat covering his body. His face contorted in pain which in no doubt he probably is in. At her instructions, Rosa had already left a bowl of cold water and a fresh towel after cleaning up the place. Using the basin the of water by the side of the bed, she began to clean up the sweat that had formed on his body. While she cleaned, he stiffened, his body tensing all over. She would stop before carefully continuing. This reminded her of the time in the villa where they had first met, she thought smiling sadly to herself. She'd taken care of him like this too. After patting everywhere visible with the cold towel, she dropped it, heaving a sigh. She

    Dexter woke up to someone caressing his face. Fluttering his eyelids open, his gaze landed on a figure just beside the bed. His eyesight cleared and he saw it to be Maya. She had been sitting down beside the bed, all dressed. The worried expression she had on dissolved when she saw he was awake. "Hey..." he started to say but a fit of cough took over, his entire chest feeling like it had been stomped over by a horse. He groaned, rubbing against it. "Careful, careful." Maya said soothingly, rushing to assist him. Gritting his teeth, he let out a low groan before managing to sit up straight. Taking in a deep breath, he let out a sigh. "Thank you." "How do you feel?" Maya asked, placing a hand on his forehead. "My entire body aches but I'm fine." He replied. She smiled. "You'll get better." She said gently. Dexter carefully regarded her. Although she looked fine, the paleness of her skin and eye bags under her eyes told him a different story. "Did you get any sleep?"

    It was late at night but once again, Maya had trouble sleeping. After tossing and turning in her chambers for so long on her bed, she decided to check up on Dexter once again. Today had been more than draining for her, having to assume the responsibilities of being the ruler since Dexter was unable to do anything thanks to his illness. Having had a taste of what life would be like without Dexter in it, she'd grown terrified. Her fears had tripled and she began to check on him every passing minute, scared that someone would hurt him once again. He was asleep when she arrived at his chambers. and she move around quietly so as not to wake him. Approaching his bed, she stared at him, her eyes taking in his features, her mind somewhere else. He looked fine but the worry in her heart would not abate. Placing a hand on Dexter's forehead, she let out a sigh. She's probably done that five times over the past one minute. Her apprehension was getting the best of her. Withdrawing her

    It was the day of the execution, Maya stood in front the mirror, watching as the maids dressed her, a grim look on her face. She was wearing a red velvet gown that was lined with gemstones and above her head, a crown was in place. She wasn't sure if Dexter would be showing up and frankly, she didn't ask him. She knew how hard it would be to do this alone. A knock came on the door and it opened, Geoffrey walking in. "Everything is ready your majesty." Geoffrey announced with his head bowed. Maya regarded him with a nod of his head, her body tensing. Wrapping a cloak around her body, she started out of the chambers, her maids lining up behind her.... Fleurie was close to passing out. Staying in the dungeon for the past three days without food or water had pushed her to the edge and now she wondered if Maya just wanted her to starve her to death in here. She'd been plagued with nightmares and no one had come to see her since she's been locked up in here. As time p

    Although it didn't look like it, that short outing Dexter had made to the venue where Fleurie was beheaded had exhausted him. Though he had stubbornly gone to attend to duties that required his attention, the moment be settled down in his chambers, he had fallen asleep almost instantly. The doctor said it might take a while before Dexter regained his full strength. Seems like he didn't want to wait that long. It was already late evening and Maya having nothing to do, watched Dexter as he slept, a small smile on her face. He looked absolutely adorable lying there, his dark curls falling over his face, covering his eyes. His long lashes fluttered as he slept, his face relaxed. After their heartfelt conversation three nights ago, she'd felt happier and as a result, she was much freer with him. He's so beautiful when he sleeps, Maya thought to herself as he brushed his curls away from his face, careful not to wake him up. She couldn't stop watching him, how could one man

    Days grew into a week and weeks into a month. No sign of Nicholas anywhere. Every raid or search that had taken place yielded no success. It was as if he just disappeared into thin air. It made Maya restless because she knew there was no way he would be backing down without a fight. She could only hope and pray he eventually gets caught. Although their relationship was back to normal, no one could deny the underlying tension growing in the palace. Earlier there had been an uproar in the royal council following the death of Fleurie and Gavin's threats of retaliation to which Dexter had promptly increased the castle's defense. Like Dexter had predicted, he had no intention of letting it go. Fully recovered, Dexter had begun to spend a lot of time working and training to recover his full strength. It was something Maya was always excited to see. She always made sure she was present when he trained. Winter arrived but it was unlike any winter Maya had experienced. Other than the below fr

Unfortunately, they couldn't retire together as Dexter was summoned by his personal aide to attend to some urgent issues that had sprung up, So maya had to go to the chambers alone. She was all smiles as she finished preparing for the night. It had been more than she had imagined. It felt so magical. Dexter loved her. She'd always known it but hearing him admit it had almost made her cry. After having her dinner and bathing, she'd planned to wait for Dexter but tiredness soon had a hold on her and she fell asleep instead. She awoke to the feel of someone watching her a while later. Rubbing her eyes open, she glanced around the chambers, her eyes stopping at the Dexter. He stood at the edge of the the door, looking lost in thought. She sat up on the bed, about to smile at him when she froze. There's something wrong. There's something terribly wrong. "Everything alright?" She finally asked when the silence

    Maya woke up the next morning, feeling a sense of emptiness without Dexter by her side. As she slowly opened her drowsy eyes, she scanned the chambers and spotted Dexter already dressing up for his duties. Catching sight of her stirring, he paused his preparations and walked over to her, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead."Good morning," he muttered, a soft smile gracing his face."Good morning," she whispered, reaching out to touch his cheeks. He caught her hand and kissed it tenderly."How do you feel?" he asked, releasing her hand. Maya instinctively touched her body, then beamed up at him."Great.""I'm glad to hear that. I'm already leaving for my duties. The maids will come in soon to prepare you for the day. I've already instructed them. I'll see you in the evening.""Why evening?" Maya inquired, looking at him curiously. He pursed his lips for a moment."I want us to go for a walk in the gardens today," he revealed. Maya nodded, her heart racing with excitement and antici

    "Turn around, get on all fours, and have your behind facing upwards," Dexter commanded, his voice stern.Maya complied, turning around and doing as she was told. Her backside raised high in the air, she waited for Devon, her heart pounding. She felt him caress her butt and she bit back a moan, already shivering in anticipation. Dexter leaned down to suck on her earlobes, his body pressing her down into the bed. "How do you want it?" He asked, his hands still drawing lazy circles on her behind. "Fast and hard, or very slow?" He asked, his voice dangerously calm. Maya swallowed, thinking about her options."H-how about both?" Maya muttered back, sucking in her lower lips. She felt Dexter hit her backside and she squirmed, her insides clenching at the surge of pain that coursed through her body."Now, you're just being greedy." He muttered, his voice harsh. Biting and sucking in her skin, Dexter continued to tease her, rubbing his hardened length on her wet folds. Maya whimpered, pushing

    "Touch yourself again." Devon repeated and Maya's heart skipped a beat. She gulped, blinking rapidly. Why would he want her to do that? Still, she couldn't deny it felt almost exciting to try that in front of him. His gaze not leaving hers, Maya did as she was told. Very slowly, her hands inched between her thighs, her face burning even as she tried to appear unaffected."Spread your legs further." He commanded and Maya stiffened, her eyes flying open. Devon didn't move, no expression on his face as she spoke it. But she knew he meant it. Biting her lips, she spread her legs further, settling her fingers in between them, her blush growing down her body. Still reeling from her first orgasm, she started to touch herself, gasping at the sensation coursing through her body. With Dexter watching her, the act was even more erotic. It was almost too much to handle.The atmosphere was filled with sexual tension and no matter how hard Maya tried to minimize the pleasure she got from the act,

    As evening fell, Dexter and Maya made their way back to the palace. Dexter hurried off to attend his duties, leaving Maya alone in the king's chambers. She couldn't contain her joy, her smile radiant as the maids readied a bath for her. Among them was Rosa, who eagerly awaited her chance to speak with the queen. Finally, the maids departed, and Rosa approached Maya with a gentle smile, drawing closer to her."How was your day, my queen?" Rosa asked, her gentle hands pouring warm water over Maya's body, cleansing it with care.Maya's face lit up, her joy evident as she clapped her hands. "It was splendid! The best I have had in a while," she beamed, her happiness radiating from within.A warm smile adorned Rosa's face as she continued to wash the queen, attentively tending to her. When they were halfway through, Rosa couldn't resist asking her question."Should I prepare the tea for you, my queen?" she inquired, her voice filled with sincerity, while Maya, lost in her thoughts, simply

    Two days had passed since Maya's discussion with Rosa, and finally, all the necessary preparations were in place. After adorning herself for the day, Rosa lingered behind once the other maids had departed, eager to share some news with the queen. Maya sat patiently, awaiting Rosa's words."My Queen, I have some news," Rosa announced, her head respectfully bowed."Please, go ahead," Maya encouraged."I scoured the surroundings in search of suitable herbs for your condition, and this is what was recommended to me," Rosa explained, reaching into her pouch and producing a bundle of dried leaves. She placed them carefully before the queen. "According to the doctors, they advised me to brew a tea with these leaves. It is believed to prepare the body for pregnancy," Rosa concluded.Maya gazed at the herbs before her, taking them into her hands to examine them closely. Satisfied that they were genuine and potent, she nodded, her eyes turning to meet Rosa's."Well then, I have heard what you h
