Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 47 – BLOOD IS NOT ALWAYS THICKER
QUEEN DOWAGER I threw the jade cup I was holding, and it shattered into pieces at the guard’s feet. He dropped to his knees, head bowed deeply. “Who told you to kill people?” he trembled, he was one of men my guards had captured. I wanted to know who had the audacity to go against me. “It was the…”The guard’s eyes suddenly widened. Before I could turn, the whistle of an arrow sliced through the room. thud. The arrow buried itself in his throat. Blood sprayed across the polished floor. His mouth moved once, twice, but no words came.Blood pooled under his head. I watched the dark red circle of blood getting bigger. I tightened my fists; my nails dug into my palm drawing blood. “It is clear that people around here have forgotten who I am.” I slammed my hand hard on the arm rest.“Get in here.” my voice felt foreign even to me, it was like someone else was talking. “Your Majesty.” He gave a bow. “Go, find out what happened.” He straightened. “At once, Your Majesty.” I fixed my eyes on
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 46 – THE LOUDEST SILENCE
JULIAN “Has there been any movement from their side?” The silence had gone on for too long. Too quiet. And that frightened me more than open hostility ever could. My guard bowed his head. “They met once, Your Highness. After that, nothing.” once. My stomach tightened. silence from people like them usually meant only one thing.Plans were being made in the shadows. It didn’t help that I still had no word about Helena. Every hour without news from the men watching over her felt like a blade pressing deeper into my chest. “What about the ministers?” I asked. I was not afraid they would suddenly withdraw their support.What terrified me was the Queen Dowager reaching them first. They had promised themselves to her before turning and pledging their loyalty to me. a humiliation she would never forget. I knew that woman well. If she could not strike me directly, she would destroy the people around me instead.One by one. Break them until they bent to her will. She had never played fair. “N
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 45 – PLANS OF A NEW RULER
PRINCESS MALIA Four days. Four days since I sent assassins after that orphan. Not a single one had returned. Not even a dead body. My fingers tightened around the teacup until a crack spread across the porcelain. Messages were sent but no response came. Their silence was unsettling. Its either they were killed or on their way back to the capital and couldn’t communicate. But what was more unsettling was the crown prince’s popularity amongst the people and ministers.Each day in court they sang his praises. Ministers were flattering him and offering their support to him. Even those under the queen dowager were starting to waver. The minister of revenue who once smiled at me during banquets now eagerly showered Julian with praise after each court session.Nobles, even those who were neutral before now address him as the future kind. Where did he get the audacity to grow without me by his side? If thing went on like that, I would never be the crown princess. Just as I was thinking of vi
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 44 – SAVED BY THE FOREST
HELENA The alley was narrow and dirty. I could hear running footsteps behind us and he was not far. My chest burned as I had not recovered from the last run I did. I could see we were coming to the end of the alley. My eyes darted around as we ran looking for an opening to go back to the street. As if we were of the same mind, when an opening appeared leading to the street we ran through it. Soon we were back on the busy street. “Hold on.” we ducked behind a stall, the man kept looking around. soon the man who was chasing us appeared. He looked around on the street but saw no sign of us. I was holding my breath with my hand covering my mouth, afraid of even breathing too loud. Only a minute passed before the man ran down the street. “The streets are not safe anymore.” I whispered to the man next to me. “Young lady are you in trouble?” asked the owner of the stall. We were focused on not being discovered that we completely forgot about the owner. He could have given us away to the
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 43 – ON THE RUN AGAIN
HELENA It was a beautiful day in Jiang Bei. The sun was out with a nice breeze, making the temperature just right. I had been cooped up in the room I had rented since I arrived. I figured since there had been no issues, I could go out and get fresh air and maybe look for a place to rent. See what business I could start to support myself.The silver I had was not going to last a lifetime. Having made up my mind, I moved from the window, taking my small bundle and heading out. As soon as I walked out, the sun hit me and I squinted my eyes. The nice soft breeze caressed my face and I smiled. Beautiful day indeed. Kind that made people lower their guard.But my smile faded as I scanned my surroundings. I couldn’t just walk right into an ambush. My eyes swept across the street, lingering on every stranger. An old habit now. every unfamiliar face could be another hunter.I had barely reached the next street when I notice footsteps matching mine. I turned fast ready to hit him with my bundl
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 42 – REVENGE PLOT
PRINCESS MALIA The moment I entered my bed chambers; I tore the veil from my head and threw it across the room. The audacity of the crown prince! To humiliate me like that in front of everyone. “Our people are still watching that orphan, correct?” my maid nodded. My lips lifted into a sinister smile. “Good.” I walked to the window feeling calmer now.“Let’s make the prince feel what is it like to be abandoned.” My maid knew what I was talking about. she wasn’t just a maid but my friend and protector. She was trained since childhood to protect me. I didn’t think I would have to use this pawn until later, but the prince asked for it.She disappeared without another word. Less than five minutes later she returned. “Three riders are heading to the palace gates.” I smiled. “Good.”“The fourth group left before dawn, just as you ordered yesterday.” My smile widened. “Excellent.” I laughed. “Go brew me a pot of tea.” She left but was back in less than an a minute. “Princess, the queen dow
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 7– SAFE HAVEN, ALMOST
HELENA The forest felt different when I was alone in it. not emptier. Just honest. Every sound mattered now. every snap of a branch. Every shift in the wind. Every breath I tried to keep steady. There was no one left to decide what I was worth. No one left to watch. Only the path. Only me.I follo
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 6– THE JOURNY
HELENA The silence after his words felt heavier than anything he had said before. I didn’t speak again; there was nothing left to argue with. He had already decided I was something still unfinished and that was somehow worse than being worthless. I needed to leave, get the hell out of there. with
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 5– AND SO, IT BEGINS
HELENA Sunrays seeped through the cracks in the wooden walls. It didn’t feel like morning. It felt like survival continued. I woke slowly, my body stiff in ways that made every breath feel like a reminder of what had happened. For a moment, I didn’t move. I didn’t think. Just lay there, staring at
Surviving the World to Escape Him CHAPTER 4 - FRIEND OR FOE
HELENAHe was back, panic flared. Should I run? stupid thought. Where would I go? How far could I get with a broken body and no strength? Begging? Maybe that would work. He was alone now. That had to mean something. He had lied for me. Maybe, just maybe he meant to help. I looked up at him, searchi
