Amelia woke up after having a long nap, she saw Mirabel staring at her. She sit up and sighed.
“What are you doing here? Staring at me while sleeping.” Amelia said and yawned.
“Why would get her as your maid? I’m here for you.” Mirabel said. “Ms Mirabel, you should have some rest. Besides she won’t be here with me, forever. It’s just for some time.”
“I just hope it’s a good thing.” She said. “I trust her.” Amelia said. “Oh..I pray she won’t f-__-k everything up.”
Amelia chuckled softly. “She won’t. I got to know some thing about her.” Amelia said
“Would you like me to get you something, you just waking up and that lil man there is hungry.” Mirabel said.
“Okay.” Amelia replied. “What would you like?” She asked. “Anything, delicious and nutritious.” Amelia said.
“Alright, I will get it for you.” She said and left. She came back with a lot of food and fresh juice. “You will like it.” She said.
“Thank you.” Amelia said and she left. “Oh my goodness, this is way too much.” She said and giggles.
The news got to Henderson about Saanvi, that she is now the Queen’s personal maid. He was upset about it and called her, but she didn’t pick up.
He drove down to Naples by himself and drove into the main gate of the palace, they bow to him. Jerry went to informed the queen that the king is here, before he could arrive. The king was already in the room, she happy and sounds of their kisses could be heard.
“I’m sorry, your majesty.” He apologized and shut the door. “Oh baby, I missed you…” She said, seductively and kissed him again. He looked away from her. “What’s that? Why that look? Is it because I kissed you here. Oh com’on you said no making out, I mean we are not naked.” She chuckled softly and noticed he wasn’t smiling either.
“You came all the way from Rome, just to give me this face? You are not even looking at me” She questioned. He looked at her and exhale.
“Why did you make her your maid? Your personal maid. I remember telling you to get a maid and you say you don’t want them.”
“And now, you want them. Okay, fine. Why not someone else? She tried to ki|| you and our unborn child.”
“I didn’t caught her in the act. I trust her.” Amelia said. “I trusted her too. And she betrayed me.” Henderson said.
“She is not a bad person.” Amelia said. “And what if, she is?” He asked, looking into her eyes. “She is not. How can you believe that $h|t, her maid vomited so easy.” Amelia said. Henderson sighed.
“What do you mean?” He asked. “She is not bad, you should know that more than me. You guys have been friends for 5 years.” Amelia said and sat on the bed. “Babe, I know. But people change so easily and you have no choice than to believe what you see.” Henderson said.
“How are you doing? Have you eaten today?” He asked. “I’m cool and yes I have eaten.” She replied.
“You shouldn’t worry, I’ve got securities. They are many. Please, you have to concentrate on your work and your kingdom.” Amelia said. “I know, but I would have been less worried if you are with me. But since you say so. I will concentrate.” Henderson said.
“Hope you had enough fun and rest today.” Henderson said. “Yeah, it was nice.” She replied. “You should get going..” Amelia said. “Take care, call me if anything happens. I don’t pray that something should happen.” He said and kissed her lips and forehead, before leaving.
4DAYS LATER
Amelia and Saanvi her personal maid, went to the mall to get some stuff. They shopped a lot of things, the more good things, the more she picked them. Amelia made payment for the things she bought.
“You will go to the car, while I bring the other ones.” Saanvi said. “Okay..the royal guards will help you.”
“No, it’s okay. I will be fast.” She replied, with a smile. Amelia went to the car, Jerry was already there. He opened the door and she hopped in.
Saanvi walked out with a lot of shopping bags, she gave all to the royal guard to keep it properly in the car, she went back to get the other ones.
On her way she saw someone, that she has never thought she would see. She quickly look away and walked faster, unknown to her that he has already seen her and he is here for her. He was fast enough to catch up, he spreads his hands making her to stop and she look away.
“Hi. Nora.” The male voice muttered and smiled. She didn’t respond to him, she was boiling with anger and felt like hitting him. He noticed that and stop smiling. “Nora, am sorry for everything.”
“I h@ťě you. Don’t you ever come to my face. The next time you do this, I will spit on your face.” She said and walk a few steps.
“Nora, please. Am here for you.” He said, she stopped and walked to him. “What do you want?” She asked.
“I want you.” He muttered. “What about your wife? She gave you a child right? You got married to me and what did you do? You disappear, I didn’t see you. I waited for you to come back. But no. And when I came to Rome I heard that you are back with a woman.” She half yelled.
“I came back. I’d came back, but you weren’t in Milan. I was told that you went to Rome and that you will be back, I swear I waited for you. For months but you never returned. So i traveled back to the States.”
“And you came back with a woman and a child. You never cared about me, because if you do, you could have come to Rome to look for me. But because you have someone else in mind, you left.” She said and began walking away, but he followed her and pleading with her.
“Nora, please…. Listen am truly sorry for that. Mom wanted grandkids and there is nothing I can do at that time.”
“And you got married to my best friend. You mother fúcker.” She yelled at him, angrily. He paused and watched her shed tears. “I h@ťě you, Daniel. Gross..” She said and he tried touching her, but she warned him never to. “Because of you, I lived with a fake name and identity. I did things that I wasn’t supposed to do. Don’t you dare come close to me.” She mumbled and walked away. She went to the car and gave the guard. She wiped her tears off and then hopped in.
Daniel walked to his car, he never that Kate was Saanvi’s best friend. He opened the door and dropped the stuff and shut it. He went to the drivers seat and his daughter is looked at him. “Daddy….” She called. He smiled and fasten the seat belt. “Yes…” He replied, with a smile.
“Did you get my ice cream?” She asked. “Uhmm, don’t worry sweetie I will get it for you okay.” He said, sweetly to his daughter. She nods with smiles on her face. She never gets to see her mother, she died after giving birth to her. She just have her father, who cares and loves her.
Amelia has already seen what happened, the guard told her and she came down and saw everything. She went back to car, it wasn’t something that she need to interfere. Even when the guards wanted to, she stopped them.
“Are you okay?” The queen asked, with a fixed gaze. But Saanvi bow her head and muttered, “Yes.”
Amelia knew that she was lying, but she waved it off. She doesn’t want her to be disturbed until she decided to talk about it.
They left the mall and they arrived at the palace, the door was opened for her. She got down and went to her bedroom as usual. Saanvi came in with her hand bag and the shopping bags.

HOURS PASSED
Henderson and Amelia went to lonely place, Amelia was surprised when he brought out a gun. “What are you doing with that?”
“Practicing with the gun.” He replied. “So you brought a pregnant woman here to practice with you. With a gun?” She half yelled.
“Stop being silly and take the gun. It’s loaded.” He said. “I h@ťě this.” She muttered, scared.
“Hey..easy. Don’t be scared of anything. It’s for your own good. Trust me.” Henderson whispered and she nodded and he helped her with the gun on her hand. “$h00t..” He said. She shot but it didn’t hit the target.
“You didn’t hit the target. You will $h00t at the bottles.” He said. “Is there wine in them?” She asked.
“No.” He replied and she glanced at him, he smiled. He guided her again. She $h00t until she hit the target and was perfect.
“Do you think am good?” She asked. “Yeah. You’re always good at everything you do.”
“Why do I need these things?” She asked. “Protection.” He said. Amelia sighed and mumbled. “I wanna go home.”

8pm
After having dinner with the Queen in Naples, the king set to leave the kingdom, Amelia and her maid were in the bedroom.
Amelia went into the bathroom and take her bath, while Saanvi helped her with her night wear. She came out and dressed up. The lights were having some issues, but the moon was shining so bright.
Saanvi saw a someone standing behind the Queen. “This is your end. Queen Amelia.” The male voice said and raised the dagger to stab her. Saanvi recognize the voice and pushed Amelia and she landed on the floor. “What are you….” She paused when she saw someone standing there and then she heard a scream. It was Saanvi, she fell slowly on the floor.
“You are trying to be the Messiah. You can’t even save yourself Saanvi. Look at you, laying in the pool of blood. You won’t have been here like this, if you had listened to me. You refused to work for me. You choose the queen, thinking that you are safe and that I won’t come back for you. Oh poor thing, i pity you.. But you have to die in my hands” He said.
“Run… Your majesty.” Saanvi said, in pain and grief.
“No… I can’t leave you alone, not like this.” Amelia said. “Please leave, he won’t spare you…” Saanvi said, in pain and her hand on the spot she was stabbed.
“No..” Amelia mumbled and tried to get up, but it was all in vain.
Sounds of gun shots were heard in the bedroom, immediately Jerry rushed in and saw blood everywhere. He saw two bodies laying on the floor, which of them has blood on it. The other guards and Mirabel rushed in. She couldn’t believe what her eyes were seeing, she went on her knees, crying.
“Your majesty….”
