RECOMMENDED SONG:

Terrible Love By Birdy ~?

It wasn't easy to say that you don't love the person that you loved once, shared memories or moments together. Even though your mouth might say that you don't love him anymore, a part of your soul would still love him. That was the bitter truth of this universe. If hating someone was so easy, heartbroken stories wouldn't have existed in this world.

Jessie was silent after hearing her sister's accusation. She had the thought of killing Shanz when she stepped into the castle of Davina but her stupid memories messed up with her intention. She found herself hating and loving Shanz at the same time.

Tension enveloped the air between two sisters. Isabella couldn't help but pinching her own palm hardly. Shanz had nearly teared apart their family and now she would give him no chance to break Jessie anymore even it meant to take the throne or take Shanz life.

Jessie snapped back to reality when Isabella no longer spoke and continued staring at her unblinkingly. Her lips curled into a little smile. Rubbing the back of Isabella's palm, Jessie spoke smiling weakly,

" Have you ever wished to pull out a part of your memory from your head, sister?"

Isabella frowned confusingly upon her words but she nodded anyway. So many times, she tried to forget Vincent's execution but this part of her memory had always haunted her. Killing the person that you love was the greatest pain that ever existed in this world and Isabella knew every inch of it.

Jessie replied swallowing down her hidden pains a little to me,

" Shanz is like that to me, Sister."

Isabella opened and closed her mouth silently. Her emotions were little uncontrollable for a moment but Jessie's words worried her. You never know how deep wound one had inside her mind.

Isabella changed the subject. Pursuing her lips together, she suggested casually,

" Wouldn't you meet, Cedric? They are in other room."

Jessie shrugged uninterestingly,

" Doesn't matter anyways! When are you going to leave for Basarisk?"

Isabella informed leaning against the bedpost,

" I guess, I have to stay for few more days to recover completely."

Jessie hummed running a suspicious glance on Isabella's body. From what she heard, Isabella had a rare blood type which cause her to bleed profusely until she turned extremely weak. From her own judgemental view, Jessie could say that Isabella had healed fast than her expectation.

Jessie asked from her curiosity,

" Sister, Don't you think that you have healed too fast?"

Isabella's eyes dropped on her own body. Her head was occupied with so many thoughts that she forgot to pay attention on her changes. Isabella muttered growing a little curious over her own nearly perfect body,

" Well..I guess so..I mean, Richalwolf Land has the best physicians across the world.."

Jessie still shook her head suspiciously. Coming over to sit beside Isabella's feet, she shot a long thoughtful look on Isabella's stomach before asserting,

" You gave birth and was severely injured from that bastard Ford's attack. But now not only you stopped bleeding, you don't feel much pain anymore within just a day. Besides you had a critical state with your labour. I just.. feel like magical..Do you know what herbs they used?"

Isabella shook her head unknowingly. She was unconscious all the time. How did she know what had happened?

A voice came from the other side of door,

" Princess Isabella, our head physician has come to check on your health. Allow us to enter, Please."

The topic was buried upon the maid's arrival. Jessie walked on the other side consideringly and emptied the space for the unknown guests. Isabella approved sitting straight on her bed,

" Come In!"

The door opened with a slight creak and a maid with Physician Hilari walked in following them Cedric, Ayra and Silas came all in together. Cedric had already heard about Jessie's arrival and guessed that she would be here with Isabella.

Silas's green eyes fell on Isabella who didn't look back and he was glad for that. At some point, he felt like he was being too suggestive with his behaviors towards her. Physician Hilari had already composed her emotions before coming here. She acted neutral and checked Isabella's eyes, body one by one.

As she checked on Isabella's health, everyone's anxious eyes laid on her except Silas who knew the outcome already. Cedric spoke first with his tight frown appearing between her temples,

" How is she? Isn't she recovered already? How many days that she has to live here?"

Physician Hilari replied with her professional voice,

" My Lord, Princess has gone through a severe internal organs failure state. I am afraid that though she looks normal on surface, she might get sick anytime. If you allow her to stay in Richalwolf Land for two months at least, I can keep a steady observation on her speedy recovery. You know, I can't travel to Basarisk everyday since I have a lot of patients here. If she isn't treated well on time, this damage will remain forever inside her body."

Silas added seizing the right opportunity,

" That's very scary, Miss Hilari! I am sure that his highness wouldn't take a risk on his sister's health. Please keep doing your best."

Hilari cleared her throat before nodding her head sheepishly. Both Cedric and Jessie looked tensed but no one was comfortable to leave Isabella alone in this castle. But they had to take a decision for her good's sake.

Cedric broke the tense atmosphere,

" Then I would be troubling Duke Silas and his family for the time being to look after my sister."

Silas's response came in instant with a courteous bow,

" That's our honour, Your Highness! I will personally look after her health."

Ayra joined feeling a little better now,

" I also think so. We have to prioritize sister Isabella's health first."

Jessie interrupted showing her discomfort,

" But sister Isabella.. Won't she be left alone without us?"

Silas's voice rang with a mysterious smile,

" I will make sure that she doesn't feel alone, Princess Jessie. We have countless maids to look after her health."

Jessie narrowed her eyes at the green eyed man. He sounded like he would take responsibility of her sister. She brushed those thoughts away since she didn't know him fully.

Since the decision was finalized by Cedric, the crowd was dismissed soon afterwards. Jessie poured a glass of water for her while saying,

" Sister, Stay away from the green eyed man. He sounds mysterious. Who knows what he has in his mind!"

Isabella only laughed at her words. Silas was really mysterious but she didn't feel like she could do any harm to her.

****

Inside the living room Of Ayra, the maids had just left after preparing the bed for them. Cedric was in his loose robe, seated across the couch and was gulping a glass of fresh wine. Ayra was standing by the window with a deep thoughtful look on her face.

After a while, she spoke to the man who was lazily sitting and devouring wine,

" How was brother Vincent? Would he be happy if he learnt that sister Isabella is going to take away the throne from his other brother?"

Cedric replied with a shrug. His features hardened a little but he responded in a casual voice,

" I wouldn't say that he was the best man, Princess. He was someone like who would like to watch his queen sitting on his feet and compelling his each command."historical

Ayra nodded with understanding. Most of the kings had this nature of dominance inside their veins unlike her two fathers who can even leave the throne for their wives. Ayra teased approaching him slowly,

" Why don't you ask me to seat on your feet? Aren't you also a king?"

Cedric grinned at her words and pulled her on his lap in a swift. Ayra gasped before falling on his lap. His alcohol mixed breath fell on her skin with his sensual words that made her legs wobbling,

" I would rather prefer you to sit on my lap and ride my dick, love. Don't you know?"

Ayra's cheeks turned pink in less than a second. No matter how many times he opened himself to her, she would never get used to his shameless behavior possibly. She tilted her head aside to look into his eyes worryingly,

" What if the person says that my mark resembles something bad? What would you do?"

Cedric's eyes darkened a little but his mischievous smile soon hid the fear that he was feeling inside. His voice came out bit teasingly,

" Well, the most baddest thing has happened with you already."

Ayra furrowed snapping her head aside to ask him curiously,

" And what is that?"

Cedric flashed a grin on his face and replied into her ears,

" You.. having feelings for me.."
