It was nighttime already, and Eleanor could be seen inside the girl's room. She was presently dressing her bed, amidst thinking about what the girls had told her earlier. "Could the king truly be in love with me?" She mulled it over, but then, she shook her head when she realizes it was impossible. Hence, the door of the room suddenly opened from the inside, forcing Eleanor to be startled as she turned around to face the soul who turned out to be -Katrina. Katrina crept into the room, she never knew someone was in the room she slowly shuts the door and turns around intensely as she doesn't want to be seen by anyone. However, she flinched when she found Eleanor in the room. "What?" She rudely asked, nervously wiping off the beads of sweat off her forehead. "Nothing," Eleanor shrugged nonchalantly. "I never said anything to you, did I?" She put in. "Whatever!" Katrina rolled her eyes, proceeding to walk past her but Eleanor suddenly stopped her. "If you don't mind me asking, Kat
King Spencer deepen his kiss and dug his tongue deeper into her lips as his e was highly intoxicated by the taste of her mouth —vanilla. He held her cheeks possessively, he was mentally blinded and physically drawn to linger his lips on hers. To him, the lady he was kissing was someone else and not Eleanor, whom he despised and hated. Eleanor's widened eyes were slowly dimming, her whole body was flushing with strange feelings she never could tell what it was; it was unexplainable yet bewildering. “My king!" Eleanor gasped in his mouth when she realized what was going on, she struggled to push the king who was grasping her tighter as he snake his hand around her waist and jabbed her deeper into the door. “Hm!” Eleanor's moan laced with struggle, she was making an effort to break free from him but hell no, this man was dominating her and overpowering her. She feared what might happen next, she doesn't want the king to blindly do what he desired at the moment because it will brea
Katrina coughed agonizingly, she doubt if she would be able to able to continue enduring the torture."Speak!" Zachary yelled, causing her to slightly cringe from the trepidation of him using that tool on her again. "I went to visit one of my cousins since the king doesn't allow us to step outside. I thought escaping was the only for me to see my cousin," Katrina told, but she was inwardly hoping he'd buy her words to him. "You went to see your cousin?" Madam Madison frowned at her utterances. "Y-yes!" Katrina shutters, she lifted her face to glance a the aged woman behind Zachary. "Then why did you spy at the king's door?" Zachary raises another query. Katrina knew he was finding it difficult to believe her, she knew he tackling her with his words. But no matter how he tries, she was smarter to hide the whole truth. "I only conceal behind his door to know if he was inside the room, I needed to make sure he was inside the room so that I would be able to escape in the morning," K
"My king!" Eleanor cried out, rushing down to the king who spread motionless on the marble bare floors beside the bed. "Ugh!" King Spencer deeply groaned on the floor, his head was aching and his eyes were boiling in pain. Eleanor quickly knelt beside him, gripping his arms as she struggle to lift him to his bed —It wasn't an easy task for her, but she strongly pull through. Luckily, she was able to raise him and let him collapse flatly on his king-sized ed. "My king..." Eleanor called again worriedly, she simply watched as the king kept on tossing on his bed, his hair covering his pretty face. "Go away!" King Spencer suddenly growled, causing Eleanor to flinch and she took a step backward. "N-no, my king!" Eleanor manages to courageously protest "I can't leave you in this bad health!" She added, wanting to move closer to him. "Listen, you are my slave, huh! Just leave my room before I assault you!" The king warned, but his slave was reluctant to leave him alone to wallow in
It was prematurely early in the morning, and the tiny birds are chirping melodically outside the window. Eleanor slowly tossed repeatedly on the bed while her eyes softly fluttered open to the world around her, she was still feeling sleepy and her whole body aches a lot. Gently, she sits her butt on the bed and makes use of her palm to close her lips as she yawned loudly. Hence, she glances behind her back and she saw the king sleeping lightly on the smooth vast bed. "Oh!" She gasped lightly, scurrying out of the bed instantly and she glimpse at the king again. Waves of fear coarse through her, what if he found out that she had dozed in his bed? Although, she could vividly remember she had knelt on the floor while attending to him so how did she end up sleeping on his bed? King Spencer still happens to be fast-asleep, he didn't even make a move or stir up when she had sailed out of his bed. Eleanor knew how the king hated a woman to lay on his bed, she had once remembered how
"Come in!" The familiar cold voice ordered. Then, Amelia cheerily strides into the room with the intent to spill the reports of Eleanor being a thief to the king. However, her pleasant countenance abruptly switched to a frown when she saw how tense the room was, and she shrink slightly. "My king!" Amelia bowed at the king who sat on his bed, the king who fumed in the mouth and he was fisting his hand. King Spencer ignores Amelia, he was very furious and irate at Eleanor for having the gut to steal his late wife's bracelet which he had gifted her —It was the symbol of their love before she died! How dare she! What gave her the audacity!!! "Zachary!" He growls, and Zachary who was still in the pool of surprise took a quick step forward. "Yes, my king!" He bowed. King Spencer cast his eyes to the window, his body was boiling and he unknowingly stood to his feet as the bed coverlet slip away from his body. Hence, he ambles powerfully to the window and gazes outside with a vicious
“Put off the smoke and bring her out!” King Spencer ordered in an authoritative tone. "Y-yes, my king!" Zachary nervously bows, and he scampered to the room and he put off the smoke once he was inside. A few guards scrambles into the room, and they hauled Eleanor out of the room but she was already lifeless! "She's dead!" A sharp gasp was heard from Amelia, and Amaya lost consciousness instantly. "No!" Madam Madison wept, flying to the guards and she grasped Eleanor in her arms. "Eleanor!" Willow yelled, she rushed to Eleanor on the floor, checking her jugular "she's no longer breathing!" She started to intensely panic. King Spencer stood with no expression on his face and his fingers simply balled into a fist behind his back. Hence, he glimpse at Madam Madison and he was quite startled to see her weeping. Everyone knew his slave was the reason why he was a widower at a young age, everyone knew she was a murderer! But here they were; weeping and poking around miserable about h
"Madam Madison, you have to give up already," Zachary was saying, and Amaya whom he clutched in her arms freely slipped away from him. “There's nothing you could do anymore," he added. The room became noiseless, Madam Madison who was seated on the bed unhurriedly stood to her feet and she started to pack the medical kits with a grim expression. "I don't know why but I do suspect that Eleanor was accused falsely!" Willow gritted out. "You are right, if there is anyone else who could have done this then that would be Katrina," Amaya sniffed, wiping her tears from her eyes. "Hmm, why do you think so?" Willow asked. Meanwhile, Madam Madison was behaving as if she wasn't listening to their conversation but she was as she still pressing the kits into the medical box. Zachary scowled his face as he was briefly lost in a few thoughts about the whole situation, he doesn't know why but his mind tells him that the mistress is the one who planned it all. Willow shrugged "I suspect Katrina
