"But... we just need to know what is happening. Prince Ivan almost killed Williams! Shouldn't he be punished?" Susan said, trying to bait her father to tell them what exactly had happened, even though she knew it was impossible for a prince to be punished for hurting another person, especially when the person didn't die. "Does that mean you should be punished for almost killing Prince Ivan too? Why were you reckless?" "So I was supposed to let him go free after hurting Williams?" She asked back, sounding…

"Why do you look angry, father?" Williams asked his father weakly. It wasn't unusual for his father to always be upset about something, but today, it seemed like he was so pissed that he could feel it all over the room. It was so strong that Williams could not continue sleeping and had to open his eyes to ask. His father turned to look at him, and when he heard his voice sounding better than last night, he looked relieved. "When did you wake up? How do you feel?" He asked as he walked to the bedside and…

Harold had a list of things he wanted to ask her because now there were a lot of potions circulating in the palace. He also wanted to be sure of the right antidote for Alpha's plight and needed to know if they were hiding any information on how to quickly flush out the poison from Alvin's body without much pain. Also wanted to know what he had been fed on the day of the banquet, learn more about Beta's nightmare, and every other thing he could think of. So he turned to look at her, looking all serious. "I…

Harold could tell the woman had followed him inside the room, but he did not turn to look at her. Instead, he acted like he was busy checking out the supplies in the storage as he thought of the best way to force the truth of the questions he wanted to ask out of her. He wasn't the type to beg people for answers or do things peacefully. Nah. Peace was never an option. "Prince Harold. You should consider it. I know it may be hard on you to let them go, but this is as far as I can go as their mother." She…

"Let us go." Williams' father said to Harold, who was currently staring at the lake. He liked to come here to think because, for some reason, it made him a bit relaxed and clear-headed. However, the plan was ruined when William's father showed up behind him, demanding permission to leave with his family. Harold turned to look at him, his hands crossed at the back. He was quiet for a long time as he gave the man a scrutinizing look. Sir Evan did not bother to hide his displeasure, which was either…

As Alicia stormed to her room, determined to find out the things Amber had written in the diary and make sense of them, a sharp pain shot through her head, causing her to almost fall. Fortunately, she leaned on the wall, wincing in pain as her head began to throb. The pain increased, and she began to feel lightheaded, groaning in pain as she pressed her palm to her forehead. Different memories and voices began to flash in her head as she remembered a series of events that had happened that night. "Now,…

For the first time since this whole thing started, Alicia was standing outside Princess Tyra's chamber door. It had been a few hours since the assembly ended, so she guessed Tyra should be awake now. There was just something about her that made Alicia confused. Something was wrong somewhere. Before Alicia could knock on the door, the door opened, making her halt with her fist in mid-air. A maid stepped out and almost did a double-take when she saw Alicia there. At this point, Alicia was used to it.…

The court grew livid, shunning her for treating a man like that--and not just any man--but someone next to the King and far more important than she could ever be. Some noblemen even suggested that she be arrested immediately. "Do you swear on your life that you are telling the truth?" Sir Richard, who had been quiet the entire time, asked Agnes. Sir Richard suspected that a lot was happening, more than they could understand, but that was not his main concern now. They had to move on with this since it has…

"You said you didn't want any bloodshed." Harold calmly said to Alicia, who was waiting for an explanation about what had just happened in the assembly hall. They were both in Harold's chamber now, alone. Except for Alvin, who was still sleeping on the bed. As for Paulina, they had no idea where she was hiding, and Susan was still fast asleep in her chamber. "What happened? Didn't you say she died? Why did she suddenly say it was the queen? It wasn't the queen, right?" Alicia asked a barrage of…

Every one of them looked at the maid in confusion, wondering where she had come from. Hadn't she been missing this whole time? Because of how insignificant she was, the queen had even forgotten to add her to the list of people Alicia was suspected of getting rid of, even though Alicia had been in the dungeon at the time. They had concluded that she had an accomplice so it didn't matter if she was locked up or not. "I have brought in the witness." Sir Oscar announced as he bowed and stepped to the side,…
