The coronation day,"I present to you King Stiles; the king of Moonstone pack!" A moderator announced. The crowd erupted into cheers, as Stiles climbed the podium. He was full of smiles, and there was a loud hoot as the pack clapped loudly. The noise was almost deafening." Good day everyone," Stiles said and silence ensued. " It's an honor to be bestowed this crown and honor today. I promise to serve you better." He said." Also, I promise that this pack will be run with love and equity also any form of undue punishment or maltreatment will not be tolerated. No order is above mine." He said. A few days ago, he would have said these same words without meaning it. But today he was making these vows not just mere words. There was a pause before the crowd erupted into cheers. They must have sensed the vulnerability in his words. It had meaning. A goblet was brought before him. He slashed his palm and recited the oath he had been memorizing, " I am Stiles a descendant of Thaddeus. I ta

Two Weeks Later, Cisca had a birth scare that caused her to be rushed to the hospital with immediate effect. Thanks to Martin who came to visit." How are you feeling now?" Martin inquired and reached for her hand, as she lay on the bed. His heart had almost jumped out of his chest when she collapsed.She offered him a weak smile, " Fine. Thanks for bringing me here." Martin snorted, " That's nothing. I couldn't have left you there." He said. It was a given." All the same, thank you." She replied. He didn't have to, but he did and for that, she was exceedingly grateful.Dr. Bart entered the room, " Oh, I didn't know you were awake." He apologized when they turned to see who was at the door.Martin waved him off, " It's fine, you can come in." He said.Dr. Bart smiled with his notepad in hand and walked towards her bed. "How are you doing?" " Fine, I guess. I'm alive, so it's fair to say that." She joked. Martin stared at her with concern." Good those are the things I love to hear

" You should stay, this is the time you are needed most, how do you think he will feel when he sees no one beside him now that he is ?" She suggested. Stiles was going to be in pain soon." I don't think he will appreciate that, Amelia replied and walked away.Nicky smiled and returned upstairs, she saw Stiles lying helplessly on the bed and she rejoiced greatly. She thought that Mary deceived her, meanwhile she didn't. " How are you feeling?" "Not too good" Stiles groaned in pain. He couldn't bear it anymore. " The doctor will arrive soon." Nicky soothed him. Alexia walked in and shot Nicky a suspicious glare, " Good morning, I decided to check up on Stiles when I heard." Nicky replied and exited. It would stir suspicions if she didn't show a little concern. " When will Dr. Bart arrive? Have you met with the investors?" He asked.Alexia nodded. How his condition worsened baffled her. Just yesterday was fine. " Let's take you to the hospital." She said and he shook his head again.

" How are we preparing for his burial?" Elder Drew inquired. Queen Alexia looked up with an ashy face which was puffy from crying too much. " We are doing nothing about it. The elders can around " I want an autopsy to be conducted for him." Queen Alexia ordered and the elders looked at her. " He was murdered." She explained she needed to find his murderer. The elders exchange glances between themselves. " Okay, we will inform the doctor." Elder Drew said. Martin patted her back gently as she sobbed after they left. " Everything will be fine. They'll get to the root of the matter." He assured her. He stared at her with pity-filled eyes. Alexia was unable to eat for days and she began to lose shape. " It's so sad. I know who did this." She said. Martin's hand stopped moving as he turned to look at her. " Who?" Why didn't she say anything? Moreover, didn't she also kill the king?" I suspect it was poison. Someone in this house did it." Alexia replied flippantly. Intrigued by the

The man managed to escape, and Martin carried Amelia to the house. Cisca was waiting at the foot of the stairs and her mouth fell open when she saw an injured Amelia." What happened to her?" she asked as Martin called for other guards at the border. It was almost three a.m. before the pack house was stabilized. Alexia was baffled by what was happening. She locked herself in her room. She saw the intruder that came into the house through the window. Cisca paced around as Dr. Bart worked on Amelia. Her bleeding finally stopped and she slept off. " How did he manage to break into the house with this amount of security?" Alexia queried the next day. " We don't know, your highness. We chased him to the border, but he was able to cross it before we got it." A guard said.Alexia crossed her arms. " We will know the truth in the morning." She said. She could bet that this was targeted at her. This was what she could do." You can all leave. We'll speak about this in the morning." Martin d
