Stunned into silence that they ca to know about her secret, even though she tried to mask her shock, her eyes flickered with surprise. She was taking herbs to stop getting pregnant because she was sure that one day she would be out of Hydra and that a child would only be a burden to her plans.
"What do you an that the ship has sailed?" she spat. "I have given you all my life! I was marked twelve tis. Do you think that was easy for to sustain? And now you say that none of you like ?"
Levin shrugged. He got up from the bed and started to go towards the door. "You can stay here for as long as you like, but don't expect to co to you and act like your mate. When Felis was around, I was forced only to bed you, but now that he isn't there, I can have any woman I like." He opened the door and before leaving said, "And frankly Morava, every other woman in the Hydra Kingdom is far better than you. You have betrayed your father, your mother and all for the sister who was the legal heir of Pegasii. You have gone way ahead of yourself." Saying that he shut the door close.
Morava stared at the closed door for a long ti, unable to drag her gaze away, unable to wrap her mind around his words. Fury rose in her chest and she picked up the bedside lamp and threw it on the ground. It shattered into a thousand pieces. What did he know about her misery? His father always liked her and she was supposed to beco the queen of Draka. Things had beco hot. She was about to be announced as Eltanin's fiancée when that bitch, Lusitania ca into his life. After that, things only went down.
She turned out to be his mate. Not only did Lusitania steal her fiancé, she also stole her father and her kingdom. Morava's hands balled into fists until her knuckles were white as old wounds rose to the surface. She picked up the pillow and clawed it, frenzied as hell. "I am going to kill you, Lusitania!" she growled. "Wait for to get out. The day I co out of Hydra, that will be your last day!"
Morava was so angry that she felt like throwing everything down, instead she went to the bathroom and soaked herself in a long bath. She had to think of a way to break the seal around the border and get out of it or else she had to think of a way to stay like a queen here. With how things were going, no one wanted her.
She closed her eyes and leaned her head at the edge of the tub, her mind a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts. Suddenly, an idea struck her. What if she made the Alphas fight amongst themselves? They were all divided and had separated their lands. They were all too keen on ruling. She could take advantage of this enmity between them. But how?
For the next one hour, as she got dressed, she made her plans. She thought very carefully on how to do it. Every step had to be taken carefully because this was her only chance. If she failed, the Alphas would kill her and probably hang her body upside down in front of the palace. Before that happened, she was going to instigate them to kill each other.
She was combing her hair as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. She chuckled. After all, she was the princess of Pegasii. She was natural when it ca to the ga of thrones. Her mother was so much into it and she had watched Sirrah closely.
When Morava walked out of her room, she went straight to the dining hall where Levin was already seated with his favorite concubine and another one of his n. He gave her an indifferent look and turned his attention back to his man.
Morava was prepared for it. She walked to sit on his right and stared at the concubine who stared right back at her. Morava plucked a grape from a tray and popped it in her mouth. The concubine glared at her and said, "It seems that you are unwanted."
Morava cut her off. "It seems that you do not respect your queen." She leaned forward and said, "And do you know what is the penalty for that?" She said it loudly so that other servants could listen to her. The concubine gulped. She glanced at Levin whose jaw ticked. He motioned the concubine to leave. She got up and left imdiately in a hurry.
Levin was pissed. He glared at her but Morava only smiled sweetly at him. "You can't bla , Levin," she said nonchalantly. "I am a princess. I don't like lowly people sitting around ."
He was extrely angry at Morava, but he had to keep the façade on. "What do you want?" he asked.
She looked at a servant and motioned him to serve her breakfast. The servant rushed to her and served her with fish wrapped in seaweed, freshly baked bread and pineapple juice. She picked up the glass of juice delicately and said, "I wish to talk to you in private, Levin. Urgently."
He narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to talk to her at all, but if he didn't listen to her, he was sure that she would stay back. And he wanted her to leave. She was unbearable. "Okay, et in my bedchamber in half an hour."
A broad smile ca to her lips. "Sure!"

"I loved the baby shower ceremony, Tania!" Lerna said as she hugged her.
"Thank you for coming!" Tania replied, brushing Lerna's back.
Tabit ca to embrace her when Lerna pulled back. "I can't tell you how much I enjoyed these few days. I needed to de-stress!" The friends laughed together when they heard Fafnir grunting.
"I think next month, Taiyi and Alrakis will also be here," Tania inford them. "If possible, try to visit us."
"Oh sure!" Tabit said. "I want to visit Stourin. I heard that Fafnir has a beautiful tail and I want to see it!"
Tania winked. "He sure has a vibrant hued tail. I've seen it!"
And Tabit was... jealous.
