NICHOLAS POV

I pretended to have slept off before she returned from the bathroom so that she could sleep peacefully without worrying about my presence.

I knew something was definitely off. When the doctor arrived earlier, he checked her pulse and also checked her heartbeat and then he confirmed to me that she was just sleeping.

I didn't believe him so I checked her pulse and heartbeat again and realized that they were back to normal. I know what I saw and felt.

I have lived with vampires before and once their urge for blood arose, they drank it to the fullest but Diana was different, just a sip and she passed out, the next thing she was alright. I've never witnessed this in any Vampire.

Another problem is the murders. If she drinks such a tiny amount of blood, then how come those corpses have all their blood sucked out? At this rate, only one person's blood is enough for her to live her entire life but why kill three in just five days?

Something is definitely off and I need

    NICHOLAS POV I waited in the outer living room until she was out looking gorgeous in her black overall uniform. "Why am I your knight now?" She asked as she moved closer to me. "Did you already forget what I said yesterday? I ask questions and you answer not the other way round." I replied and she understood my seriousness by the sound of my voice. I walked out of my Chambers into the private elevator that would take us to the door stairs of the Throne hall. Murmurs and side talks began as soon as I entered the throne hall with a new knight. The prime minister and the Luna Dowager were the most surprised by my gesture and I could tell the different reasons they both have. As usual, the congregation stood on their feet until I was seated with Diana standing beside me and instead of the reason for the meeting, they started questioning her presence. "What is that bitch doing in this hall dressed in that uniform, your highness?" The Luna Dowager demanded, her face contorted wi

    NICHOLAS POV A few maids helped pack some clothes and a few important things I will be needing while I freshen up and change into more casual wear. A knock came on my door and Diana entered afterward with a small bag which I assume she had packed her things in. "Your Highness, where are we going?" She asked curiously, her eyes furrowing. "Didn't you hear what I said at the meeting today? You better pay more attention because you're going to be summarizing every detail of the meetings we'd be having from now on." I stated, surprising her. "Is that part of my work now?" She wondered, not letting go of her anger. Two guards walked into my room upon my call and they saluted politely, while I just waved in reply. "Yes, Renata. Now give that bag to them and let's go, the car is waiting for us. You tell me your opinion about today's meeting on our way." I replied and even though she didn't like the idea, she didn't have a choice but to go with what I've instructed. With just the t

    NICHOLAS' POV I knew her falling on me was intentional just to end the conversation and I decided to comply with her, and that also includes the unexpected kiss that landed on my lips. She tried to move away immediately but I held her back and kissed her hard. Her lips were as tasty and sweet as always so I couldn't just let her go without having a good taste, my hands cuddling every part of her body that it could reach. It took her a few moments before she finally surrendered to my caressing and also returned them but the clueless driver on the front seat decided to ruin it by announcing our arrival, making the earlier sweet moment become awkward for us. She withdrew from my arms and quickly stepped out of the car before me but ended up spraining her ankle as she angrily smashed her leg on the ground, not expecting a stony and bushy surrounding. "Ouch...Where the hell is this?" She gasped in pain as she bent down to straighten her hurt ankle. "Are you alright?" I asked worrie

    DIANA'S POV Is this the same guy that bares Louis? What changed? Well, I know his name and status changed but personality? That thing can't change so easily. 'What on Earth is this guy's scheme?' I wondered then I remembered what he said on the night of our agreement. "I will not fuck you because I want, I will make love to you because you want me to," I recalled. So you want me to crave for you? It won't happen. I will never fall for your scheme ever again. "No, Your Highness. I feel much more comfortable going by your title." I replied. His face fell as soon as I replied. This man can't cease to amaze me. How can he change his facial expressions so swiftly when he has just one evil goal in mind? "Ok. I think you should get ready now. We would start hunting now and by noon, we would both return to the hut, with or without prey, and in the evening, we could start the sword match." He said, standing up to his feet in an attempt to leave the room. "Your Highness, I am only a

    DIANA'S POV It took me a few minutes to comprehend what Nicholas just said. Love? What does he know about Love? Who gave him the right to fall in love after ruining my love life? I think this is also my fault too. I should never have done that. I shouldn't have kissed him. Those stupid feelings shouldn't have ignited. I came for revenge, not for love and even if I couldn't get the revenge, I shouldn't have fallen in love with him again. What kind of a daughter I'm I? If I die now, how will I face dad again? I was so lost in my thoughts I didn't realize when the tears welled up in my eyes and started falling down my cheeks until his cold palm wiped them off, sending shivers down my spine. "I love you. I love you so much that I can't imagine leaving the rest of my life without you. After our encounter, my life became a living hell. I couldn't go a day without thinking about you. When I don't see you, I get very worried. I know you harbor so much hatred for me and I know I deserv

    NICHOLAS POV Laying on the couch wasn't such a big deal for me because I've done a lot of that while growing up and it's not like I'm the type that sleeps well. After Dad died, I never grew up with love, and being rejected like this only made me remember Dad. My mind went back to King Rivera's last words. And thinking about the connections between their death and the reason why they died of the same thing, I finally found it. It was very hard for me in those five years but I knew delay was dangerous and I started my whole plan the following week after King Rivera died. I will give those evil people the same death they gave to my Father and Godfather but theirs would be worse because they wouldn't want to kill themselves and will always look for a solution that doesn't exist. It sucks not to have any trustworthy person on your side and always having to watch your back. That's how the palace has been all my life even when Dad was alive and that's how he had taught me to live

She was still talking when Kurt pulled her into a warm, tight hug, his eyes reddened as he was on the verge of tears. "I missed you so much, Diana. I looked practically everywhere for you but you were so impossible to find. I couldn't smell you and that made things even harder. Where have you been? How have you been doing? And what on Earth are you doing in this place, going about with that face?" He asked worriedly, I guess their relationship was deeper than I thought. Diana pulled herself away from him and slowly space shifted right in front of him. I felt this sharp stinging pain in my heart and I could hardly tell what it was. My eyes narrowed with contempt as I watched them discuss passionately. This is the way I want Diana to speak with me. Free and sincere but I guess that would always be in my wildest dreams.

Who else could have wanted my Dad dead? And who is also after King Rivera? They both had something in common on their last days. Just like The King, my Dad had this unbearable and painful cough for a while and a few days before he was stabbed, I noticed he was coughing blood. This only proves that the same person Murdered them. "T-tell…Tell me who killed my Dad and who is killing you!" I requested once my lips finally patted to talk.

Ava quickly sent a call through to the doctor and ordered them to be at the King's room immediately before I backed her and ran towards the elevator. "Where is the doctor? I will go bring him faster." Kurt requested and after he had been told, he teleported out of the elevator. We took Diana to our room and laid her on the bed and soon enough, Kurt teleported in with the doctors and began to examine everyone after sending everyone except me out. After almost an hour of check up, the doctor was ready to tell us what happened to her. Even though I wasn't expecting much from them, I still waited anxiously for their report. I decided to call Aiden in since he was also an immediate member of her family. "You Highness, it looks like the queen is not eating the food and drugs as prescribed. She has lost so much blood compared to last time and her pulse has become quite weak.

Diana anxiously anticipated this day because it was her first time and she even asked Aiden to stay here until the party had been concluded so he could witness it himself. During this time, I barely had enough time for her but thanks to Kevin she didn't miss me much. Our attire for the ceremony was already prepared for us in the room before we finished our double bath and with the help of the maids, we got dressed in an ancient royal robe which was specially designed for the occasion.

    DIANA'S POVI was surprised by the sudden seriousness in his voice and I couldn't help but wonder what was going on. "My coming to Sweden was all part of a plan. A plan to make you fall in love with me. This battle for the Emperor title has really made monster's amongst men and my father and I were not spared. He asked to make you fall for me and then get married to you so that you can live with us but... I promise I fell in love with you for real even though it wasn't part of the plan." He explained and all I could do was chuckle. "Are you not offended?" He asked curiously. "Of course I am but I'm resistant to betrayal now and I am getting used to that kind of life. Which could be worse than Uncle and Stella's betrayal?" I wondered while still smiling at him. "Stella?" He exclaimed. "Please!" I begged. "Looking back at my life right now, I really don't have anyone I can say I trust for sure aside Nicholas and Aiden. At first, my uncle whom I've always considered to be the best f

She yelled and I snapped out from my thoughts. "Yes! It was me. That was the first time I could finally sense you after five years. Those murders were committed by me but don't get me wrong, I didn't plan to have you framed for it which is why I wiped out all trace of your finger print as well as mine but I don't know how your was found on it." I explained then I tried to touch her but she pushed off my hands angrily and stood to her feet, pushing Aiden and Nicholas away.She sent an ear splitting slap down my cheek before pushing me away.

"What do you mean by uncle sent her? Who are you talking about? She asked curiously."I'm...I'm talking about Stella! She isn't who you think she is." I paused briefly."I still don't get you, Aiden." She said, looking scared."You got me well, Shuga! You understand what I'm talking about, you are just trying not to believe it and I agree it's not your fault. I also once trusted her blindly."

I don't remember saying that. What could be more important than seeing you after such a long time." I lied. I am becoming even more perfect at lies since I kept telling them one after the other."Oh! You sounded so serious. I must have been mistaken." Aiden replied, still looking quite confused by my denial and so was Nicholas. We had the rest of our small banquet in silence and once we were done and everyone was ready to leave, I called out Aiden and told him I wanted us to spend some time together alone."I was going to suggest that anyway! I still have a lot to catch up with you and I still have a lot of hugs to give." Aiden replied, drawing Nicholas' attention."Be careful how you hug my wife. Even though she is your sister, she is now my wife. " He s

No harm must befall my child!"Do you by chance know where the kid is?" I asked curiously."Of course not. But I believe she is not anywhere close to Sweden at the moment. I believe she is far from the Scandinavian peninsula as a whole." She replied and my heart sank to my stomach.

I asked angrily but she just stared at me innocently.I collected the phone from her before she could end the call."You heard it right Aiden.
