All Chapters of His Unbeloved Queen: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

-Katherine-I didn’t really want to leave Darius, I realized, as he kissed me and walked away to meet his brother. He was a comforting presence, especially now with everything being so new and disorienting. But I knew both had missions to focus on. So I made my way to join Silver and the others in one of the large common rooms designated for the queen and her ladies.The room was cozy and cluttered with pillows and blankets, books and clothes scattered around. Floating plates of treats hovered nearby, and small birds perched on the edges of the open windows, providing a gentle melody. I noticed that all of Silver’s ladies had once been my own. It was clear that Silver had completely taken over my life. Did this mean she would also face a grim fate in seven years? Probably not, I told myself. She had given birth to two sons and was a fire witch with actual abilities, unlike me, who had been seen as a useless queen despite my efforts for the people.“Ah, Katherine!” Silver called, waving

-Darius-My brother didn’t appreciate my words, and I understood why.“But you once mentioned that you might become even stronger if you fought on their land,” he reminded me, as if I could recall that conversation.“I would get stronger, but not the rest of us,” I pointed out.“But it might be enough.”“Am I going alone?” I asked, thinking that was an even worse idea.“No, you wouldn’t be alone, but you could guide the rest of us through it.”“Brother, I don’t think it’s a good idea. Listen to me. They are too powerful on their side,” I explained.He sighed, leaning back, clearly disappointed. Was my brother someone who craved war and desired to be known for something “great”, even if it meant bloodshed? I couldn’t believe it, and I didn’t believe our father had raised him to be like this. Although our father had died shortly after Acan took over, I knew he had been a good king—beloved by the people and wise.“Maybe we could draw them out then,” he suggested.“They would still be diff

-Katherine-“Different how?” I asked, eager to know more.“He seems… hungry for power,” Darius said.“What? Acan?” I replied, struggling to believe that he could crave power so intensely. But then I remembered how I died, and it didn’t seem so far-fetched.“Yeah, I was surprised too. And he also told me about his love for Silver and hers for him since they were young.”“I’m sorry?” I inquired, my shock growing.I knew they were close, but this was new information. Since they were young? How young? As Darius spoke, I began piecing things together. I moved away from him a little, feeling his gaze on me as I thought it all over.“Did Acan… cheat on me?” I turned back to Darius, searching his face for answers.His eyes dropped, and I could see the pain there.“Darius?”“I…” I jumped over to Darius, gripping his neck to force him to meet my eyes. His gaze was filled with anguish.“Tell me the truth. I beg you.”“I don’t know,” he whispered.“You were his brother! You are his brother!” I ins

-Darius-My brother and I were working alone in his study. I was surprised by the new responsibilities I had as his most trusted advisor.“So, how is Katherine today?” Acan asked.“Still finding it hard to eat,” I replied.“Just keep an eye on her. Silver was the same.”It felt familiar, me and my brother sharing concerns and advice. He was five years older, and in this world, he had clearly experienced things I hadn’t. I appreciated his advice, but uncertainty still gnawed at me. What could I trust? What was real?“I will do my best,” I said.We worked in silence for a while until Acan let out a satisfied sound and turned a document around for me to see. It was an announcement.“Is Silver pregnant?” I inquired, feeling an unexpected pang of annoyance.“It’s early, but it has been confirmed,” Acan said.“I see…”So Silver was now stealing the spotlight from Katherine, who had finally achieved the long-desired pregnancy after so much waiting.“Well, congratulations,” I said, trying to s

-Katherine-I watched Darius leave the water, droplets cascading from his sculpted body, making him look even more stunning. An idea suddenly popped into my head, and I was unsure where it came from. It was difficult to discern which part of me was the present me and which part was influenced by the memories of a life filled with happiness with Darius.I followed him out of the water, and as he grabbed a towel and walked toward the bed, I met him there. Grabbing his arm, I turned him around. He looked puzzled, but I couldn’t quite explain what had come over me. I pulled the towel away, pushed him back onto the bed, and positioned myself between his legs.“Katherine,” he whispered, making me feel flushed all over.I leaned down, taking his hard cock in my hand and licking the tip. His powerful reaction and his hand reaching out to grasp my hair told me that I was doing something he enjoyed. Though he didn’t control me, he guided me closer, clearly eager to be inside me. I took him in as
