98. Roseline- "It was a fight between the lion and the lamb."

The palace is in an uproar and the rumors of the an eminent lockdown had spread like a wild fire. I walked down the stairs, with a straight and rigid expression not caring to pry into the conversations that had ensued all around me. "Did you hear that the queen's guard was found dead in his own bed chambers. Oh the horror!. Who could have being the beast that committed such an atrocious evil." In as much as I did not want to pry or listen, I still ended up being sucked into their conversations. If there was a lockdown, then I had a problem. A very big one at that. There was the problem of Juliet and then Georgino who was a big pain in the ass to deal with. Asher looked like a clown but with the absence of a wig on his head as he walked haphazardly towards the soldiers quarters not caring to take a close look at himself in the mirror. "This son of a bitch." I muttered underneath my breath as I hurriedly walked towards his direction to halt him in his attempt to blow my cover up. His

99. Roseline- "I was born bold, bad and lucky."

I could barely move my body, I felt like a heavy sac of potatoes, fully handicapped and immobile on the spot. Let's not forget the pain that consumed me inside out. My nerve cells were actively on alert mode. "She'll come around very soon. The cut nearly hit a sensitive vein. It is a miracle she survived the incision." I was fully awake as I heard the doctor blabber on and on about being a fighter and all the shitty consequences that came with diving into the realm of slitting a vein open. I had gained consciousness few hours after I was brought out from the emergency room but for now it was best I maintained a certain level of decorum for now. The thought of being faced with Xavier's question's kept my eyes tightly shut. "Why isn't she awake yet Doctor. I thought you described this as a minor operation. So why is she yet to regain her consciousness?." Xavier aggressively jabbed at the doctor who quickly described my current state to the confused Xavier. "Like I said earlier your

100. Ariel- " I believe in you and so will they"

From one bad news to the other, one chaos to the other now this. I had no idea Roseline was going through depression or whatever medical term Xavier tagged it as. Maybe she was overwhelmed by all the happenings in the palace. Maybe she wanted to end it all before whoever had everyone on their toes came for her as well. "You should not freight, the doctor said the impact of the cut wasn't dire all we need to do now is hope and pray that she gains consciousness." His words did nothing to ease my worry or rid the pain in my heart I felt choked up and chained by the weight of the unforseen and invisible shadow in the dark that relished in the game of hide and seek There was a mask that was yet to be unveiled and people dying at the hands of the beast that was responsible for the mishap and mayhem in the palace. If Griffin was killed that gruesomely, I prayed Juliet was not decaying somewhere. My heart went out to Xavier who was holding the fort even though he was yet to be coronated

101. Roseline- "He whispered into my hair and everything felt right in the world."

Things were falling in place perfectly and my plans were finally back on the right track. The gut wrenching lovey dovey banters that went on and on between the love of my life and the woman I dreaded was finally disrupted by Sean. Sean had come to save the day as his presence brought an abrupt end to the conversation that ensued between Xavier and Roseline. For crying out loud, I was in the room with them. Did Xavier not pause to think of his utterance might have hurt me or done number on me even In my unconscious state. Ariel was responsible for this as well The previous night, he went all super man on the doctor and held my hands in his like I was his life line but at this moment, Ariel had consumed all his time and attention. This only made me hope that Sean had come with good news. "Sean is the autopsy result out. What was found?." Xavier anxiously inquired from Sean who took his time to answer the question that would being me back to reality. Hell was I tired of relieving ea

102. Roseline - "It's fine Xavier, if you want us to be friends, then friends we shall be."

Playing the piper was a skill that was to be meticulously honed and made to function without any hitch and with ease. If I could annihilate someone as huge and terrifying bulked up like Griffin, then Georgino was going to be a piece of cake. Or so I hoped. The wheels on the wheel chair I was subjected to made a smooth whooshy sound on the porcelain tiles floor that led to the exit of the hospital. Xavier was with me all the way which made the process bearable. "So sorry, Ariel has being unable to come since you gained full consciousness." Xavier did not need to apologize on anybody's behalf, he was more than enough for me. Fuck Ariel and her busy body show of emotion. I for one did not need anyone sobbing over me like I was about to hit the bucket. "Oh that's fine. I'm sure she had better and important things to attend to. I can't blame her if she has more pressing things to attend to." I tried to play the victim again but I had chosen the wrong words and my timing was out of pro

103. Ariel- "I will be your Queen and wife no matter what."

The culprit had already being caught but the feeling I had was still unsettling and my mind was troubled. It felt like a foreboding danger lurked in the shadows waiting for the right time for it to rear it's ugly head. "What has you staring out into oblivion?. Roseline is back to the palace, the tension in the kingdom had quelled down, the people sing praises for being their hero, I expect some form of celebration from you." Xavier had done all the digging up and his beta Sean had pieced up the missing puzzles together. Yet, I was the one who received all the accolades when I had little or no contribution in catching the culprit. "We both know that I had nothing to do with the culprit being caught. It was all you and for that I am grateful Xavier." I really meant what I said from the depth of my heart. Xavier had being coming through for me and sweeping me off my feet in ways I could not describe oe fully elaborate. The coronation was I'm twenty four hours time and I had all I nee

104. Xavier- "I am certain you will find your mate but I am not that guy."

Everything happened in the blink of an eyes, The sharp screams that filled the hall as Ariel fell to the ground like a piece of paper. I did not care if it was against the law or any fucking doctrine for the king to bow down before anyone either by coincidence or willingly as I slid to the ground holding my unconscious wife in my grasp. "Where is the royal physician." I barked at the crowd of people who had come to mingle and have fun. They did not dare come any close to the spectacle they all witnessed before them. It was against the inscribed laws again that the queen be touched by strangers or individuals outside family and in this very moment, I did not even want her to be touched by a family member. Maybe the little rendezvous commingling of the previous night had taken a big toll on her or the stress of the entire palace debacle had finally overwhelmed her. I had no idea but in time the doctor would soon find out. I lifted her up like she weighed nothing, the gasps and horr

105. Roseline- "My smile wavered and my cheekbones fucking hurt."

I could not believe that this was happening, with Georgino out of the way, I had no one on the outside to bank on so it was just me against the world with baby Asher who lacked a back bone. News of Ariel's pregnancy had spread far and wide. It was not just within the confines of the kingdom but outside it's walls as well and here I was, keeping on a smiley face like all was right with the world when in actual reality, it wasn't. "News flash, her majesty is expecting." The maids who were headed to the laundry room whispered as they passed me by. If only they knew that I was on edge and they stood the risk of getting nabbed in the bud, they would keep their thoughts to themselves. "Are the rumors true?." Asher's disheveled look and drunken state consoled my raging heart. At least, I was not alone in this little mess and inconvenience that threatened my union with Xavier. Xavier's earlier rejection, was the last straw that broke my patience. It was also a warning that if Ariel kept o

106. Xavier- "A scandal will be the death of me young man"

The search was becoming more and more unbearable especially when I was revisiting the same old places and going down the same route over and over again. I was pretty sure that the ground which I walked on was now very much acquainted to the sound of my feet. My search for Juliet had metamorphosed into months of endless nothingness. Sean was more determined than ever to find her. He called it "the mystery of the century." I was beginning to doubt the authenticity of the culprit that was locked away in the dungeons. He was a blabbering mess before, always screaming at the top of his lungs that he was innocent but suddenly his defence had turned to defeat. "Any sign of a rustle or movement over there Sean?." I asked, in the hopes that at least a squirrel might have ran by. I need a hope booster to keep me going. "Nothing at all your grace." Sean replied back. Ever since the coronation and abrupt announcement of Ariel being pregnant, I had found myself spiralling down a dark hole. Ju

107. ARIEL —"I was a mother now, or I was going to be one"

Everything seemed surreal now. Juliet would be found and we could all go back to our usual lives, after an intense bout of celebration of course. But still, this did not feel real. I slowly put one foot in front of the other and walked up the stairs while holding onto the railings. Life had started to seem meaningless to me. I woke up everyday with a heavy knot seated on my chest and it would not leave no matter what I did. Roseline said it was because I had become so filled with sorrow, because I was now so used to sadness, because a significant part of my recent days was spent worrying about Juliet and every other thing. But I was a mother now. Or I was going to be one. A little Ariel or Xavier resided inside of me and I was determined to do a good job. Still, I did not know how to go about that. My mother had gifted me loads of books on childbearing and antenatal care immediately she heard the news. They were good books, I was sure but they did little to make me feel any bett
