|| RECOMMENDED SONG:
Broken Parts By Clide ~? ||
Silas\'s face stiffened a little after being questioned by Cedric suddenly. Though Cedric held no suspension, he was getting nervous over nothing. It was said in the history that a culprit felt the first stab whenever someone mentioned about his crime even though he was referred. He was the same culprit.
Yes..A culprit..Who forced someone to become the sole bearer of his offspring without her knowledge?
Silas was going through a difficult situation to answer his question in a suitable way. Fortunately King Draco felt the urge of replying fast. Taking his own pride, he responded keeping his tone polite and proud at the same time,
." We have the best physicians, King Cedric. I believe that it\'s their doing."
Cedric hummed and couldn\'t be less agreed in this matter. People from all parts of different worlds visited Richalwolf Land just to cure their diseases. Creatures from Richalwolf Land man,women all loved to study medicine here. Thus within a decade, they had become the best group of physician that the history had ever seen. It was said that an ancient goddess had blessed this land for prosperity and knowledge.
Ayra thought of something after hearings how awesome their medical interests were. She wondered if she would suggest Nathan to live here in the future or not.
Since his father answered something else, Silas didn\'t speak on the topic anymore. Changing the subject, he suggested offering them a nervous smile that didn\'t suit his image,
" I think,you should rest for now. Since Princess is sleeping, we shouldn\'t disturb her now.."
Ayra nodded in agreement. Tugging on Cedric\'s arms softly, she suggested growing worried for him unknowingly,
" Your Highness! You should take a nap now. You didn\'t close your eyes for the entire night. Let\'s wait for sister Isabella\'s awakening."

Soon evening creepted into the lands of Richalwolf Land. Unlike birds chirping, their evening started with wolf\'s howl and ended with wolf\'s howl. An infamous land that were known for wolves was Richalwolf Land. Their best weapon in wars were wolves. Most of them were incapable of transforming into humans except a very few who were born with strong bloodline. Silas was just another example for being exceptional. Born with madness of beast and fierceness of dragon, he held the most powerful magics that RICHALWOLF LAND had ever witnessed. His father was a wolf who could transform into human. Somehow he managed to capture the heart of his dragon mother and later married. Being the only child in this family, he was treasured ever since he born.
In comparison with other kingdoms, Richalwolf Land has less population than others. Most of their lands were occupied by wolves who were wild beasts. The few community that lived here were either dragons or transformed wolves.
Isabella\'s long unconscious state was awakened by an ear piercing howl from the nort pool. A male Wolf who just lost his soulmate cried mournfully. His howl sounded so pathetic that it spreaded throughout the air sharply and reached in Isabella\'s ears.
Mumbling something incoherently, Isabella opened her eyes groggily. Finding no one around, she sat up on her own and looked around. A little candle was lit up at a corner and barely lightened the room. Taking a note of everything, Isabella found that the room looked quite lavishing. A few rows of ceramic statues were standing at a corner and gave off a vibe of Royalty.
Feeling a little ache behind the back of her head, her brows drew in confusion then memories from last night began to flash inside her thoughts. Fear and panic once again crawled inside her heart.
Ignoring everything around, she stumbled down from the bed and rushed out of her room in thought of finding her child.
Isabella paused a bit after finding no one around. Wandering about where she was exactly, she began to pace around and stopped in front of a room from where she heard faint noises of women. At first, she wanted to ignore but her track paused again as their words entered into her ears,
" Such pitiful woman! She not only lost the child but now incapable of boring any child anymore. I wonder that how will she react when she wakes up. I heard that she has lost her husband too."
It was those maids who were appointed by Silas to take care of Isabella. Since she didn\'t wake up in a day, they thought of leaving her alone but didn\'t expect that their little gossip would be heard by Isabella herself.
Isabella stood there, frozen by their words at that place. Her lips trembled together violently. Staring down at her empty belly, her vision blurred in tears.
Were..they.. talking about her?
She didn\'t move but stood there numbly to hear further. Sadly truths couldn\'t be hidden longer and people love to gossip about painful stories the most. The other maid joined tsking pitifully on Isabella\'s condition,
" That\'s really heartbroken! Lucky, our duke managed to save her life. I heard vaguely that those physicians gave a choice to choose one life. Then Duke told to save the girl."
This time, Isabella gasped loudly and couldn\'t hold back her emotions anymore. Letting out a painful gasp, she staggered few steps back disbelievingly and held the railings for support.
Her lips pursued together before muttering lowly,
" This..this isn\'t right..I..No..It can\'t happen..My baby..I felt him..He..he used to kick me..No..This isn\'t right..They are lying..."
She kept muttering alone in the darkeness. Tears fell from her eyes silently as her mutters got louder. Hearing a little noise from outside, those maids came out to look at the corridor and were immediately stunned after finding Isabella over there.
One of them panicked approaching her slowly,
" Princess...You.. You are awake... When did you..."
" Is everything that you said are true?", Isabella asked in cracking voice. Her tearful eyes pulled up to stare at the maid who appeared uneasy by her questions. She didn\'t want to get in trouble by telling her the truth.
But Isabella got her answer already. Supporting herself to get up from the ground, she choked mentally vowing in silence,
" I killed my husband..now..my child..I..I don\'t deserve to live any longer..I don\'t..."
Isabella murmured before taking two hasty steps backwards and ran towards the opposite direction away from those maids.
