“This is my house” Amara said
“Oh,I guess you’re one of the minister’s daughters” Liam said
“Yeah,where are you living?” Amara asked
“Outside Suidan,but I will be here until the ball night is over” Liam smiled
“Wow,then I guess we will see each other at the ball.” Amara said
“I will love that” Liam said
“Thank you for walking me home,bye” Amara waved and immediately went in

“You got me,I’m tired. Right now,I feel like I am more of the king and not the crown prince,that’s why I escaped down here. Are you going to chase me away?”
Lucian laughed
“Why would I do that?”
“I need to see the queen mother,come with me” Liam stood up
“Why? Just go alone,I’m busy” Lucian said

“Seriously?” Liam chuckled and went in without Lucian
King Lucian sighed as he began walking slowly around,all of a sudden he saw a woman coming closer to him and he stopped,wondering how the woman entered the palace and then,who is she?
She finally got to him and smiled at him
“Your Majesty” she smiled and bowed shortly
“Who are you? Do you need anything?” King Lucian asked
“You’re such a great king and I never regretted choosing you” The woman said and Lucian was confused
“But then,you fail to see some things. Don’t worry you will find out soon”
“What are you talking about?”
“I’m talking about the future queen” The woman said and Lucian kept quiet
“She’s close to you,right in your sight. Very soon,you will understand what I am talking about”
“Really? Are you a seer or something?”
“I am the first Deity,the creator and I will make you understand what I am talking about soon” She smiled and vanished
“What the h**k?” King Lucian muttered in a calm voice
“What happened? Were you talking to someone?” Liam walked to him
“No,I wasn’t” King Lucian replied
“Then,let’s go” Liam grabbed his hand
***
Matilda was pacing in front of her suite,she was so annoyed that the king haven’t sent for her all day and she wasn’t ready to go to him first,not after seeing him hugging Adelaide last night
She was still pacing when she saw a woman walking to her with a beautiful flower in her hand
‘Who is she?’ Matilda thought
The woman stopped in front of her and smiled
“Have it,you look like a queen” She said and handed the flower to her
But as soon as Matilda’s hand touched the flower,the flower turned into a flame of fire
Matilda screamed and immediately withdraw her hand before looking at the woman angrily
“What the h*ll is this!!” She yelled
“You should know this now before it gets late,you will never be the queen. You will remain a mistress no matter how you try,that’s your fate. It is written and can never be changed,if you try to do that,you will get hurt so badly and you will regret it”
“And who the h*ll are you to tell me this?!” Matilda snapped
“Third deity,the destroyer. It doesn’t take me a minute before I destroy,I hope we don’t meet again” She smirked and vanished
“Ahh!!!” Matilda fell on the floor in fear
“My lady!” Esmeralda rushed to her
“Are you okay?” She asked
Matilda swallowed
“I’m fine” She muttered and Esmeralda helped her up
“My lady…”
“I want to be alone” Matilda snapped and went in

Adelaide finally saw King Lucian and Prince Liam together,she immediately ran to them
“My King,thank you for choosing me,I will do wh@ťěver you want” she bowed and Lucian smiled
Liam looked at Lucian with a side eye
“You can go for now,I will send for you later” he said
“Yes my king” Adelaide bowed again and walked away
“It’s the same maid” Liam said
“Seriously you have a good sight” Lucian said and tap his shoulder
Liam chuckled

“No I need something more than that” Matilda said and smirked when she remembered what the old woman said
“What is it Mistress?”
“I need you to give me a fertility pill” She said
“What? Why do you need one?” Shaman asked
“I don’t have to tell you right? Just give me an effective one”
