NEXT MORNING★PALACE**
“What? Matilda is pregnant?” Queen Sofia asked,looking surprised
“Yes my queen,the healer confirmed it last night” Esmeralda said
“Make sure this news doesn’t get to any other person or you will be in trouble” Queen Sofia said
“I understand my queen” Esmeralda bowed
“You can go”
Esmeralda left the suite and almost immediately Lisa entered
“Mother,what the h*ll did I just heard? Matilda is pregnant?!” She asked loudly
“You might want to bring your voice low dear princess” Queen Sofia roll her eyes
“What are you talking about mother,this is not right! Matilda can never get pregnant with my brother’s child,I’m sure that wh-_-re did this intentionally knowing fully that it’s not right,mother!” Lisa shouted
“So what do you expect me to do now?!! What!” Queen Sofia shouted back
“Mother……don’t….don’t tell me you’re trying to keep that child” Lisa shook her head
“We have no choice,the King’s child can never be aborted no matter what” Queen Sofia said
“Says who!” Lisa shouted angrily
“Lisa…..”
“Why can’t you see that she’s only after the queen’s title? She’s trying to use this pregnancy to hold brother down mother please let her get rid of the…..”
“The king won’t allow it either,he doesn’t want Matilda to get rid of it” Queen Sofia said
“Exactly,I knew it. Matilda know that brother is so soft and will never allow her to hurt an innocent soul,she did it intentionally. I mean,she’s a mistress,she know how she has always been doing it without getting pregnant,so why now?”
Queen Sofia sighed
“I swear I will make sure she loose that pregnancy” Lisa muttered and walked out,slamming the door angrily.

Matilda walked out of her suite with a bright smile playing on her lips,she stared down at her tummy and touched it.
The third deity was watching from afar with a cold look on her face,her eyes suddenly turned red as she stared at Matilda’s tummy. But before she could do anything,the first deity appeared
“You can’t do that” She said
“What is it sister” The third deity groaned
“You can’t spoil that pregnancy” The first deity said
“You and I know that child shouldn’t live…..”
“I know,but you’re not in any position to get rid of it. I am the creator and I know exactly what I am saying,you can’t allow a single mistake to destroy everything,so leave her alone and let her face her fate” the first deity said
They both vanished.
Matilda was still standing when Lisa got to her
“You slut!!! How dare you!!!!” She yelled and grabbed Matilda’s hair angrily
“Ahhh!!!!” Matilda screamed
“How dare you get pregnant? How dare you!!!!” Lisa yelled and continue dragging Matilda with her hair
“Die!!!!!!!!!!!!!” She screamed
“Help!!!! Someone help!” Matilda cried
“Shut up and die!!!” Lisa screamed,dragging her with all her power
Carl immediately rushed to the scene and went in between them
“Lisa!” He called out loudly and Lisa released Matilda’s hair while breathing heavily
Matilda glared at her
“How dare you interrupt me!!! Stay away!!” Lisa shouted and made to attack Matilda again
Carl carried her and throw her on his shoulder
“Drop me!!! Let me go!!!! I’m going to ki|| her!!!!!!!! Carl!!!! Drop me right now!!!!!!!!” Lisa kept on shouting and throwing her legs in the air as Carl took her away
They got to her suite and Carl entered,he dropped her on the floor
Almost immediately Lisa slapped him hard on the face
“Don’t ever meddle in my business again,do you get that?!!!” She yelled and Carl nodded
“I’m sorry princess” he muttered and walked out
Lisa bite her lips and sat down regretting ever slapping Carl
“I shouldn’t have slapped him” She mumbled and bite her nail
She rough her hair but when she remembered Matilda,she became angry again
“That witch,I will ki|| her!! I will make sure she lost that child,I will never allow my brother to get close to her” She said

PALACE GARDEN**
Eleanor hummed to herself as she watered the flowers
“I wonder where Adelaide is,we should be doing this together” She muttered
She suddenly heard a tree shaking and she looked up,almost immediately someone jumped down from the tree
“Ahh!” Eleanor screamed and fell on the ground,she was surprised to see Jimmy
“Jimmy?” She called
“Do I look like an assassin?” Jimmy asked
Eleanor shook her head and tried getting up
“Ouch” She Mõ@ɲed painfully
“Are you okay?” Jimmy asked
“I think my ankle got sprained” Eleanor muttered
“Seriously? Then it’s my fault for scaring you” Jimmy said and offered her his hand
She grabbed his hand and he pulled her up
“Can you walk?” Jimmy asked
“I’m going to limp” Eleanor muttered
Jimmy held her hand and crossed it around his neck,his other hand holding her waist as they started walking out of the garden
“What were you doing on the tree?” Eleanor asked
“Nothing” Jimmy said
“Should I just carry you instead?” He asked and Eleanor’s eye widened
“Huh?”
“You’re going too slow” Jimmy said and almost carried her
“What do you think you’re doing?” Kai appeared and glared at Jimmy
“Kai” Eleanor called
“What do you mean? Are you blind to see that I’m helping her?” Jimmy asked
“Then thank you,you’re going to carry her? What a joke,leave her alone. I will take her from here” Kai said
“This happened to her because of me so back off” Jimmy said and tried to carry Eleanor again
“I said stop!” Kai yelled and they started glaring at each other
Eleanor was confused
“Jimmy” She called and Jimmy faced her
“You can drop me” She mumbled
“Better” Kai scoffed and moved closer,he pulled Jimmy off from Eleanor’s side and carried her in a bridal style,he shot Jimmy a glare again before walking away
“Seriously?” Jimmy scoffed.
**
“What was that about?” Eleanor asked when Kai dropped her on the bed
“What do you mean?” Kai asked
“You almost fought with Jimmy….”
“That guy look like a pervert to me” Kai scoffed
“Really? Then your reason is lame Kai,how do you know a pervert just by looking at them?” Eleanor roll her eyes
“I’m a guy too,,you and Adelaide are really special to me okay? So just stay away from him,get some rest” Kai said and walked away

KING’S CHAMBER**
King Lucian’s eyes were on Adelaide as she helped him dress up,it was so silent between them and he suddenly grew worried just by staring at her
“Are you unwell?” King Lucian asked,breaking the silence
“No your majesty,I’m fine” Adelaide replied
“Why were you here last night? You have something to Say?” He asked and Adelaide looked up right into his eyes
She didn’t know when she started tearing up,taking the king by surprise
“Adelaide” he called
“It’s because…….I missed you so much your majesty” She said and sniffed
“I’m so sad because……you don’t seem to care about my existence any longer and it hurts so much. I really missed you alot my king” Adelaide said in tears
“If you’re avoiding me because……”
“I missed you too” King Lucian interrupted her and she stopped
“I missed you alot” He added and Adelaide let out a sad smile
“Then please,don’t neglect me ever again” She muttered and touched his cheek
She slowly went on her toes and pressed her lips on his own
She grabbed his hand and placed it on her waist while Lucian deepened the kiss even more.
