Emily could imagine Isabella's sudden attitude. She smiled within her.
"What happened if Christian is alive?" Emily asked her.
Isabella was pestered. She drew her hands closer to Emily's head.
"Listen, Emily, I have no time to waste. It is either you do as I have demanded or leave my presence; I have no time for this." Isabella told her.
"I am your adviser, your childhood friend. We had grown together, getting to know each other bette"r. You feel you can run into a bad direction and watched me allow you to draw in the sea". Emily paused and continued. "No, Isabella. I would rather render my life to save you than watch you dead."
"Is anyone planning mischief against me aside from Atlas? Because I know he should be the one with such a devilish heart." Isabella told her.
"Unfortunately, your Majesty, it is not about Atlas, but your joy." Emily answered.
"When do you care about my joy? If you did, you wouldn't have directed Grandpa towards the Christian room." Isabella shouted; Charles could easily hear the conversation and interrupted.
"She didn't." Charles answered.
Isabella paused as she sighted Charles.
"Why have you chosen to put a deaf ear on this?" You have forgotten in a hurry that Emily had been your friend; she will never in a day mislead you." Charles told her.
"Look here, sister, Christian is gone and will never by chance or any means be found. What had happened to him would be his fate." Charles added.
Isabella hissed and stood firm.
"His fate?" She asked. "I think you failed to understand that he has been my reason for survival. I do not believe he is dead," she nodded her head. "Yes, so take that to the bank, to everyone that my man Christian is alive. I will remain single if I fail to find him." She pointed at both Charles and Emily.
"The conspiracy against him won't stand because I know this isn't his fate but a conspiracy that must be untangled." Isabella added.
"You amaze me with something. Who on earth will conspire against a commoner, one with such an ugly trace?" Emily spoke.
Isabella slapped her immediately.
"If you can have the audacity to call your lovers names, do not try that with me, else you won't find it likely with me." Isabella warned her.
"Not in my face will you try that again, for a little figure like Christian." Charles warned her.
"I am the queen, the ruler; you dare not challenge me, brother." Isabella replied so rudely. "You have scolded me a lot over my man; you called him names and would even go to the extent of pointing hands at me. Yet, you have one right in your house." She answered him. "Same didn't just lower your status, but rather you forfeited your birthright just to spend the rest of your life with him." Isabella is indirectly mocking Charles for his weakness. " I chose mine, then you rise up only to proof your brother ship on me. Why don't you prove it to your heart that had deceived you?" Isabella asked him, Emily, still with her hands on her cheeks.
"Isabella..." Charles was short of words.
"Speaks!" Isabella asked him.
Charles couldn't speak; instead, he had his index finger pointing at her.
"You want me to marry that so-called rude and arrogant king of yours, the one you think fits my status?" Isabella continues.
"Don't push to the way, Isabella. You are pissing me off." Charles aggressively warned her.
"Yes!" Isabella said, walking around her chamber. "That's because I am saying the truth. You don't want to hear it, right"? She asked him.
"Remember Isabella, who is against you. Christian won't defend you, not even in his death." Charles added.
"He is always my defender." "And I asked, use the door." Isabella pointed at the door as she shouted at Charles and Emily to leave immediately.
Isabella's voice could go more beyond imagination." "How could he say such a thing right before me? He should respect himself." She concluded, then turned to Emily.
"What are you still doing here?" Isabella?" asked Emily.
Emily had to run out from Isabella's presence. Isabella sat back silently, looking so dull and pained; her heart wouldn't say what exactly was wrong with her. Yet, she believes Christian is still alive.
"The best I have ever had." Isabella was speaking while she looked at the picture of Christian on the wall in her room.
"I am sure you are alive; it always tells in every breath I had. I could always breathe the name Christian." She said and smiled. "Spend the night with me, my darling." Isabella placed the picture right beside her.
To Christian, he was still in pain and didn't know exactly what to do.
"When will I be fine?" Christian asked Michael, who was sitting beside him.
"Don't worry, Christian, you will be fine." Michael answered with gladness; he felt joy for saving Christian life.
"I can't wait to leave here back to Princess of Aldovia; she must know that I am alive."
"Don't say that. Do you want to put me in trouble?" Michael asked him. "Is this how you want to pay me for the good I have done for you?" He added.
"You don't need to speak that, please; don't repeat it; it irritates me a lot." Michael warned him.
"I know you have gone through a lot to serve me; you had the opportunity to take my life, yet you chose to save me." "I am not ungrateful." Christian told him.
"Well, you seem to be, especially now you speak about the princess, the main reason Xavier has wanted you to kill. Not just that, you were sent to join in a battle you are not ready for." "You should be fine, after which we plan on what to do next." "I am not more a soldier because of you." It should be enough reason to focus on your recovery, follow your establishment, and leave your past with the princess of Aldovia aside". Michael told him.
" She mean all to me." Christian spoke.
Michael warned him. "Do not provoke me." He pointed at Christian.
Isabella was finally made the queen of Aldovia, yet she felt incomplete. Isabella sat on her throne, with Emily sitting beside her. Isabella rested her head on the throne. "You felt worried, your majesty!" Emily watched her. "Am I complete?" She asked Emily."Well, as the queen who had gotten it all, I think you are complete; you have a mansion, live in a large palace, and are surrounded with guards and maids. Well known as the youngest rulers. Aside from the fact that you...." Emily paused; the last words seemed heavy in her mouth. Isabella adjusted, and with a suspicious eye, she looked at her."You have words to say; what is it exactly?" Isabella asked."You need a warrior," Emily answered with a trace of fear."Hahahahahaha!" Isabella laughed. "What are the guards doing?" "It is their duty to protect the kingdom and its ruler, even though I seem to have an upper power as well," Isabella told Emily. "I think your words would be, I need a husband!" Isabella said to her." Yes, yo
With Isabella disguising herself, she would walk freely into the camp."Eh! One of the soldiers stopped her.Isabella's unveiled her face."Your majesty." The soldier accorded her with some respect. Isabella, dropped the vein with him, and asked Emily to stay behind.She walked down to commandant Oscar office. Commandant Oscar, busy with some walked, was shocked when he heard a foot stepped in his office. And had smell a royal perfume before him.Unknown to him, it was Isabella standing, with her right hands on his table." Your majesty." Oscar called on her."You must have expected me. Right?" Isabella asked Oscar, walking majestically towards him."Not really, I do not have information about your coming." Oscar answered. "You expect me to believe you?" She asked him in a high tone. "Where are the bones? Where are the bodies you have trashed out?" "You seem to work as fast as you can." Isabella, pointing a gun at him."No, my princess, I didn't work faster than expected." Oscar ans
Chapter oneThe princess's choiceWhen a prince decides to take a commoner as a wife, he has to forfeit his throne to any of his siblings, and where he has none, a member of the extended family takes over the throne. Having seen that Prince Charles has decided to spend the rest of his life with Renee, his girlfriend from a poor home. He was asked to detach from the throne. Where Isabella took over. Isabella, for her part, had a handsome, tall, gentle bodyguard, Christian, who took over from her formal guard, Tony, who had gone for paternity leave and didn't return; rather, he was transferred to another section. "Don't you think he will make the best husband for me?" Isabella, sitting with her friend Emily, speaks."My princess, do you mean Xavier?" Emily asked, not knowing whom the princess was referring to."No, but my bodyguard. I am in love with him." She answered boldly.Emily could get surprised; she kept mute for a minute; her tongue seemed so heavy to roll words out from her
Grandpa Frank and the kingmakers are sitting, awaiting Isabella's presence at the palace. She finally stepped in. They all stood to welcome her. With a limit since she is yet to be crowned queen." My princess, we the elder in council, and the entire kingdom, have decided to remind you, that tomorrow mark the last day given to you to have the marrital ritual with Xavier, as well as taking over your brother, I know you will definitely love it." Lord Harrington sounded, with a smile on his face.Isabella looked around, then pointed to her father."I thought it had been cleared to everyone that I do not love Xavier. Neither do I want to spend the rest of my life with him. He is not my fit." Isabella, veils could show right around her throat. "Listen, princess, we believe it should be a rumor that you are in love with your bodyguard. You have been caught several times going beyond his duty." I believe he is not the one influencing you with this." Lord Harrington speaks. "I think I have
Atlas, having heard what they have discussed, feels happy; he was so amazed. Holding a glass of wine when Frank walked in. "I should not believe that you are behind what is happening." Frank got Atlas's attention."I do not understand you; I do not know where you are bringing this from." Atlas could respond."Isabella has made her intention known; she is strong with Christian." Frank, he aggressively replied."Really, and how does it concern me? It has no business with me." Atlas answered. "All I know is that the throne belongs to me. And soon I will have it." "She might seem brave, yet little does she know. I know it all and am very fit for the throne." Atlas responded so carefully."Just watch your step; be careful with what you are doing." Frank gave him a short warning and left."What do they take me for, a bastard?" Atlas asked himself. "One that does not know his right?" He added. "As long as the custom and the tradition exist. I, Atlas, will surely take the throne." Atlas pre
The next day, just at the breaking of the day, Grandpa hands his cloth wore after bath. Ready for the meeting. Isabella, having known her fate, has no choice but to quit from Christian, as Christian will be sent into the battlefield where he will be killed. Going with this, Isabella is fully disqualified to be crowned the queen. She has defiled herself with a mere bodyguard. "Crown me the king." Atlas stood on his feet."Never." The two kingmakers echo. "Isabella still has a choice to make. She would either step down totally or lose the throne. Knowing fully that Christian has been sent back to his master, where he would face the punishment of defiling our princess." Lord Harrington spoke. "We can't have such an arrogant man like you as our king." He added "Really, am I not better than Isabella?" I am a billionaire; time is better than a whore whom you have gathered here to know is finally a decision." "Haven't she made it clear that she is not interested in the throne?" Or will y
Christian remains under medication, while Isabella keeps trying to cope with the persuasion that comes from her people. Becoming the queen. Isabella excused herself from the palace; she sought a quiet and cold environment. While she found one, she sat on a wooden chair, having her guard standing beside her."Life has hit me at its peak, not seeing the one my heart beats for." She spoke within herself. "This shouldn't in any way be my part. A part I have to struggle with is seeking the one I love. He is the only one I can count on, the one that keeps me smiling." She breathed down, placing her hands on the wooden chair; she would watch the birds flying."I love its sounds. It reminds me of the days I spent with Christian; I wished someone would whisper in my ear with the belief that Christian is alive!" Isabella, imagining, using the birds sweet sounds. Had a tap on her shoulder."You must be lost in thought." Xavier said, and he had to sit beside her."You seem to be stubborn; you se
