DIANA'S POV
As he walked towards me, my heart skipped some beats as I thought he might have been listening to my conversation but then it occured to me that I had not said anything important and then I relaxed my muscles when he suddenly pulled into a warm hug.
What's the occasion? For some reasons I can't tell, this hug feels so creepy.
I had to quickly disconnect my call and also drop my phone on the bed before reciprocating his hug.
After a while, he released me from the hug and looked straight into my eyes, his eyes filled with worry.
"How are you doing? Hope you aren't being troubled?" He asked worriedly.
Why has he been so emotional all of a sudden? Something must be off.
"I'm fine Nicholas, what's going on? Is everything alright? Did something bad happen?" I asked curiously as I couldn't think of any better reason for this unexpected and emotion filled hug.
"I'm glad to hear that
NICHOLAS' POVI looked around the room to hear where the voice was coming from before I spotted her phone on the bed. I picked it up quickly and then I realized she was on a call before I came in. She quickly filled the phone from my hand and I held her arms firmly."You already contacted him?" 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. Your father has been poisoned by me and I'm not remorseful about it. He..." I was still talking when Diana interrupted."Nicholas! That's...""Diana, you will shut up and I will talk!" I shut her up before looking back at the phone to communicate with him."Look Aiden, he only received a dose of his own medicine. He killed your uncle who was Diana's father with a poison but The late King preferred to die quickly and ended up dying of a dagger. This was totally out of your fa
DIANA'S POV"I think she is very important to them and they said she is nothing compared to her mom. It seems the kid is way supernaturally stronger than her mom." Laura replied.Oh God! It is surely Ivy. What is he doing to my baby?"Did they say what they needed her for?" I asked curiously."No, My Queen. It seems that both of them already knew what they needed her for so they didn't bother talking about it." She replied and I felt my stomach turn ice.Moon Goddess! 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 lost my balance and was about to fall if not for the help of Laura who quickly grabbed me and helped me sit on the couch closest to us."Are you alright,
DIANA'S POVI shifted my gaze from everyone in the room and took a quick bite off the piece of steak that was on my girl while thinking of an answer."What are you talking about? 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
AIDEN'S POVI didn't know how to break the news to her without hurting her feelings because it is really something very painful to be betrayed by the person you trust with your life. I have felt it before after finding out what kind of heartless person my dad was. I understood the pain and it hurts to make Shuga undergo such pain repeatedly."Aiden, talk to me please!" She begged. "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 comforted her confused heart."No! I won't believe anything you say. Did you know how much she suffered to take care of Ivy and I? I was a first time
KURT'S POVIt was time to stop hiding and denying the truth. It was finally time to tell her the truth. The whole truth to the best of my knowledge. Even if she doesn't want to see me after that or even if she wants to do something worse as long as it can save her life, I'm willing to do it for her sake. "Answer me, Kurt!" 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. "I don't want to ever set my eyes on you again!" She yelled as she continued pushing me away while Nicholas and Aiden tried to
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
NICHOLAS' POV Time flies and it was already the full moon party. Ava has made all necessary preparations with the help of the maids. Day and night was similar on this day in the palace because during the day, the maids are busy decorating the hall where the party will take place and during the night, the whole palace is flooded with different people from different packs who are here to find their mates. 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. "I think I look weird in this!" Diana shuddered as she wore her large robe. "Well, it's part of be
NICHOLAS' POV Kurt, Aiden and Ava ran towards us as soon as I called and they helped me carry her from the chair. 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.
NICHOLAS' POV "It is good you watched me stab Andrew because you will have to grab that dagger again and with all the power you have, you're going to stab me with it just like how I did to him." King Rivera ordered and I felt my legs go numb and I lost my balance and fell on my butt. His coughing continued while I sat down and tried to solve the puzzle. 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. I noticed he was losing more blood just sitting there then I ran out of the rest area and searched around until I found the insulin shot he had thrown out. I ran back and injected it on him even
