The next morning came, and Bella together with Jayra, Bartos, and Helion's entourage continued on with their journey towards Haven Forest. "So, you mean he recalled Helena's voice and words, but not her face?" Jayra asked. Bella simply nodded, noting the hint of wary in her sister-in-law's voice. "What if he remembers Helena's face once he sees Lena then?" Jayra continued. Bella opened her mouth to speak but closed it just as quickly. That actually never came across her thoughts even once.…

Bella felt like her world just crumbled down after hearing the name Amon uttered. Her eyes welled up at the implication of it, and she immediately felt the need to be alone to process things. Without a word, she rushed out of the water and grabbed her clothes to put them on. "Lady Bella!" She heard Amon's voice calling out to her, but she felt too numb at that point to even care. There was something aching inside her chest, and it was as if someone was stabbing her heart without a pause. "Why?"…

Amon hastily turned his head away when Lady Bella stripped herself before him. "What are you doing!" he barked out in protest. To his chagrin, the woman simply ignored his shouts. In fact, he even heard her giggles as she ran towards the river. Against his will, his eyes darted towards her clothes on the ground. It would seem that he had no choice in the matter now, especially if she's out there running around as naked as the day she was born. Shaking his head, Amon heightened his senses as he…

"I don't like this situation," Jayra snorted as soon as the three of them entered the makeshift tent prepared for them. The tent was heavily guarded, and it was clear that their security was being taken close attention to. "He's simply meticulous, Sis. He's the same Osman as before. It's just that right now, he has a greater responsibility to think about," Bella reasoned. "You can't blame him after everything he has been through though… It's not easy to be the King of an abused and destroyed kingdom…

"I'm sorry, Bella. It's because we're not really sure of the situation inside the Kingdom of Helion at the moment," Jayra apologetically explained. "In the end, we decided to keep this information hidden because we don't want to give you false hope. What if the King of Helion is a different man from what we thought? Seeing you lose it once was enough for us… We can't just-Bella!" Jayra cried out as she stopped midsentence by her sister-in-law standing up and leaving. She was just about to follow her…

Bartos complained to Jayra through their bond. Jayra shrugged before she then turned to Bartos with a glare. she chided. Having said her piece mentally, Jayra then turned to King Amon and said, "Your Majesty… To be honest, as a royal mage for both the kingdoms of Cordon and Ebodia, I can easily break the spell you created. However, to prove that we're not fakes and that we're telling the truth, I won't do anything for now." She then sincerely added, "We will let ourselves fall under your…

At the Southern Border of the Kingdom of Zion "What?!" Jayra burst out as soon as her husband relayed the message Bella had for them. In the message, Bella told them that she wouldn't be able to meet them since she was already too far out of the way. She also informed them that she was traveling together with Helion's entourage and that there was nothing to worry about. "She probably saw him already," she weakly murmured as she turned to Xenia. "And she's handling everything well, wife, so I…

Bella barely had enough sleep ever since her conversation with Osman last night. She found herself constantly sneaking glances at him as he rode beside her, and she could only wonder why he was insisting that she stayed close to him as they continued this journey towards the Global Summit venue. Well, not that she didn't want it, but she honestly preferred traveling with the women so that she could talk freely and somehow gather more information about King Amon… Especially the Queen Mother who she had…

Bella stirred as she slowly opened her eyes. Blinking, she instantly got up the moment she realized that she was inside a tent to look around. "Osman!" she gasped out before she immediately went out of the tent. The moment she was outside, she paused as she stared at the man who was currently sitting near her tent. "You're finally awake," he greeted her with a slight nod. "Wait here. I'll ask someone to bring you food." He then promptly stood up to leave. But just as he was about to do so, Bella…

"How is she?" Amon asked Casimir who had just gone out of the private tent where the woman who kept on calling him Osman was resting. "She'll wake up soon," Casimir remarked with a raised brow. "She's currently unconscious, probably from exhaustion or too much shock. After all, she looked like she had seen a ghost in you." "How is that woman from earlier?" his mother, Mona, suddenly interrupted as soon as she approached them. "She's fine, Queen Mother," Casimir promptly replied, repeating his same…
