Felix opened the bedroom door and closed it for privacy since he was going to have a whole day thinking. He signed and opened the bottle of wine before pouring it to a glass wine cup. He placed the wine bottle to where it was and bringing the cup to his lips before sipping. He signed and slowly paced around the room. This isn't good. He needs to come up with a solution fast. You must be thinking that he's being over reacting, too paranoid. No. Because he's scared, he's scared of what might happen to Rheyna when he's not there with her. This must mean one thing. He needs to stay with her 24/7. If he doesn't want anything to happen to her. Everything has been getting weird and serious. First, the papers, then this.

Wait. Speaking of the papers, he wonders what they are.

Felix: Ugh! Give me a break!

He placed the wine cup down and sat on the bed, rubbing his tired eyes and hurting head. But there is one thing he's curious about, who was this guy's leader? He flinched when he heard the door open. He immediately looked behind him with his guard on but he sighed in relief when it was his father Arthur.

Arthur: Did I scare you?

Felix: A little bit.

Arthur: You seem distressed. What's the matter?

Felix: Nothing father.

Arthur: 'Nothing'? Is it really nothing?

Felix: Yes....

Arthur: You sound unsure my son. C'mon you can tell me. Maybe I can help.

Felix: I...*sigh* Fine you win and yes there is something bothering me.

Arthur: Speak up then.

Felix: It's just... I've been worrying. You do know about the man who tried to attempt to kill us right?

Arthur: You told that before so yes.

Felix: I-I'm scared father. What if... She's gonna be their target? What if she'll be in danger? I'm scared. This man... He tried to kill us last night.

Arthur: Okay calm down first. First of all, where is he now?

Felix: He escaped father.

Arthur: What?

Felix: Someone must've broke in and helped him escape. The rascal even killed our guards.

Arthur: What are you gonna do now?

Felix: To be honest I don't know. I don't know and I need help.

Arthur: Wait, you said that she might be the target right?

Felix: Yeah?

Arthur: Then you need to be with her just in case something bad happens.

Felix: That's what I've been thinking. But what about the others? I can't keep them all safe I need somebody on my side too.

Arthur: You don't have to mind them. Mind yourself and your wife.

Felix: I can't just not mind them. I'm the King, it's my job to protect them-

Arthur: You're the King. And it's your job to kill the enemies and save the innocents. Some of them may die, but you will be here to take revenge for them. They know they deaths won't go in vain.

Felix: I can't help but worry.

Arthur: Calm down. Everything will be okay.

He said before leaving. Felix signed and drank the wine and signed softly.

(Nighttime)

The whole Kingdom was quiet. The maids, servants, cooks were all asleep. Felix and Rheyna was sleeping peacefully on their bed. But Felix couldn't sleep. He kept tossing around the bed but just can't find sleep. He signed angrily before sitting up and rubbing his temples. He leaned onto his hand and just stared at the wall. He got out the covers and went to the bathroom and lit up the candles before removing his pants since he was shirtless then moving to the bathtub that was filled with cold water. Cold water relaxes his mind and his soul. Sure the hot water and the warm water is okay for him but for his opinion, cold water is the best. He signed in satisfaction before closing his eyes to relax. He let his body relax under the cold water. Letting his hair flow with the water. He looked at the window in front of him. It showed the big moon. Millions of stars glimmering in the sky.

He looked at his palm that had a scar in the middle of his palm. He remembered his things were chaotic... Back in the day.

(Flashback)

He ran inside the castle to look for Zeke. Hundreds of dead bodies of the soldiers and guards were laying on the floor. Blood everywhere. Fire was spreading. The screams of people could not be ignored. Felix ran inside to search for him. When he saw a woman crying and was holding a body. He approached it but his world crashed into pieces.

He saw Rheyna crying, holding the dagger with her hand while his lifeless body was on the ground. Blood was everywhere. She looked at him with guilt and regret. Felix felt his knees weaken. He approached them with jiggly knees and he fell on his knees and hold his head. He hugged his body. Felix felt tears run down to his dirty, and filthy face.

Felix: Zeke...? Zeke wake up buddy! You're okay right? Wake up please... Zeke!

He begged but Zeke wasn't responding. Zeke had blood on his face and especially on his chest. Where he was stabbed.

Felix: Zeke! Zeke! Wake up Zeke please!

He hugged Zeke's body closely while crying loudly.

Rheyna: I never meant for any of this to happen.

Felix: What did you do?

Rheyna: I had no choice...

Felix: What, did you do?!

He asked. Rheyna looked at him.

Rheyna: I had to kill him.

Those words left her lips. And that made his while world crash. He cried and hugged him closer.

Felix: Why? Why?! Why would do this?! He's innocent why would you do this? How could you?!

Rheyna: Felix I'm sorry-

Felix: I trusted you, I trusted you!

Rheyna: No wait listen to me-

Felix: SHUT UP!!! *Sobs* We trusted you Rheyna!

Felix stood up and grabbed her shoulders and began shaking her harshly.

Felix: WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO US?!?

Rheyna: I'm sorry F-Felix-

Felix: Why?! Why?!

He continued to shake her shoulders while she cried. Then Felix threw her on the ground and got on top of her.

Rheyna: Felix please! Please I'm sorry!

Felix couldn't hear her because all he could see is rage. He put both of his hands on her neck, he strangled her while she struggled to breathe.

Rheyna: Felix....

She tried to form a sentence but she couldn't. Especially when he was strangling her. Her tears leaving her eyes, she could feel her lungs burning. He felt her hands loosen and he could see her slowly weaken.

Rheyna: Please.... Forgive me...

'Stop!'

He heard a voice. He squeezed harder before letting a wrecked and angry scream and letting her go. She immediately gasped for air and coughed. He punched the ground while screaming because of anger.

Felix: Get out.

He said. Rheyna looked at him with sadness.

Rheyna: Felix-

Felix: Get out! Leave! Before I kill you!

He screamed. Rheyna shook her head and hugged him from his side but he pushed her.

Felix: Get out! Get out of here! Go! Leave! Leave me alone!

Rheyna stood up and cried. She turned away and ran. Felix cried harder and hugged Zeke's body closer.

Felix: Leave us alone!

He screamed out painfully.

(Flashback ends)

He let his hand fall down on the water. He looked at the moon once more. He signed and leaned on the bathtub, letting a tear fall.

Unaware of the woman who was watching him behind the door. She returned back to bed with tears in her eyes. Knowing why he's like this is because of her. She closed her eyes, ignoring the hurt in her heart.

(Morning)

They were eating breakfast. Eating peacefully. Their breakfast was simple. Everyone was silent.

Felix: Rheyna?

Rheyna: Hmm?

Felix: You want some?

Rheyna: Sure. Thank you.

Felix served her some fish but the sudden smell made her gag. Felix looked at her confused.

Felix: You okay?

Rheyna: I'm okay... It's just... The smell is...a bit too, stinky.

Felix: Who made this?

Arthur: It's Mary who made it. Can I smell?

Felix handed the dish to his father who sniffed it.

Arthur: It smells okay what's wrong with it?

Rheyna: It's just... Nevermind, I think I'm...

Rheyna looked like she wants to throw up which didn't go unnoticed by Felix. He went near her and helped her stand up. Rheyna gagged and ran to the garden. The three watched her confused. Felix decided to run after her and saw her puking the food she ate. Felix went up to her and pushed her hair away and patted her back. When she was done she signed.

Felix: Are you okay? What's wrong?

Rheyna: I-I... I'm not feeling well all of a sudden.

Felix: Let's get you to the room.

Rheyna nodded and Felix helped her walk to the room.

Felix: Rheyna's not feeling well father, I'll just accompany her to the room.

Arthur: Go ahead. Rheyna dear, would you want to see a doctor?

Rheyna: If it's not too much to ask.

Arthur: Of course not. Felix you know what to do.

Felix nodded and helped her walk to the room. He opened the door and helped her sit down. She muttered a small 'thank you' and he nodded.

Felix: I'll just look for the doctor okay?

Rheyna: Okay.

Felix walked away and towards the door and closed it behind him. Before looking for the doctor. He went to the room of the doctor who was reading a book. He knocked on the door that was opened to let the get know that he was there. She looked at the door and saw that it was the King. She stood up and bowed.

Felix: I need your help.

Doctor: What is it my King?

Felix: My wife's not feeling well. She threw up this morning after she ate breakfast. I need your help.

Doctor: Ahh, okay. I'll be there in a minute.

Felix nodded and left.

(In the bedroom)

Hailey and Draken and Jonathan and Skye and Nathaniel was in the room with Felix and Rheyna. The doctor was examining her. They all were looking at her worriedly. The doctor sighed. She backed away from Rheyna who was sitting on the bed.

Doctor: My King, my Queen. You won't believe with the news that I have for you.

Felix: What is it? Is it something bad?

Doctor: No. *Smiles* The truth is, congratulations you're pregnant.

Silence was everywhere. Before Hailey and Nathaniel began to squeal out of happiness. Jonathan and Skye joined cheering and clapping their hands. Draken was standing there with his eyes wide and completely surprised. Felix was shook. He was silent. Meanwhile Rheyna was shook as well. And also scared and worried. Everybody began to cheer. Draken clapped his hands while the four idiots are squealing like a girl.

Doctor: It seems like when you both had a sexual intercourse, you got pregnant. I'm happy for you. And now it seems like, you are two weeks pregnant now! *Laughs* Congratulations!

Everybody cheered while the two were shook in their place.

Hailey: Should we go tell the Queen and King?

Skye: We should! Let's go!

The two cheered before leaving the room in a rush. Nathaniel and Jonathan also left with Draken.

Doctor: Now you'll be feeling like you want to throw up in the morning. And it's called morning sickness. It's natural. And soon your belly will turn into a baby bump which will grow bigger and bigger, now I might have to warn you, you should not be eating any junk food, eat healthy food such as like fruits and vegetables. That's healthy for you and for the baby. And I have to say that you can't stay up late at night as well because it won't be good for the baby, you'll also be feeling like you're always worn out or tired but that's okay. It's normal for pregnant women to feel that. Now if there is any problems you can come to me and I'll figure out the problems. Oh and also you'll be craving for different kind of food and that's okay. So! That'll be all! Like I said, if there is any problem, you can find me. I'll always be around.

The doctor bowed and then left. The silence was thick and tense. Rheyna looked at Felix who turned around and leaned on the balcony window railing.

Rheyna: Felix? Are you okay? Look, i know this is hard for you okay? It is for me too. But I think we should just set aside what happened and focus on the baby.

Felix didn't say anything. This scared her. She knows that he doesn't want this. But what can she do? She's already pregnant.

Rheyna: Say something please...

Again, no response from Felix. Which scared her more.

Rheyna: I know that, you don't want this baby, I'm not asking you to be a father-

Felix: What do you mean by that?

Felix turned his head around. Without facing her but only turning his head towards her.

Rheyna: Do you not want this baby?

Felix: Why should I not? I'm the father.

Rheyna: If that's the case, why does it seem like you don't want the baby?

Felix: I didn't say anything. I never said that I don't want the baby.

Rheyna: So... What do you mean?
You want this baby?

Felix: We can't do anything else about it right?

Rheyna: Why do you sound disappointed?

Felix signed and shook his head.

Felix: I need some time alone.

He said and left the room, leaving her alone. She cried. Thinking that he doesn't want the baby. He's just lying. She thinks that he truly doesn't want the baby. He lied. He lied again. He regretted everything. He regrets what they both did. Why? Why does he have to lie? She cried silently and she curled herself into a ball in the room.

They lied.

They always lie.

He lies.

He lied to her.

He regrets everything they both did after that night.

She cried. She always cries. Why does she have to be a cry baby? Everything hurts. Everything is hurting her.

' Tonight I'll give you the love you're looking for.

'I want to continue. And I'm not gonna regret this night. I swear.'

She cried harder. She covered her ears. Stop. She just wants everything to stop. She's lost in the dark. She has nowhere else to run to. Pain. It's always pain. Pain here, pain there, pain everywhere. She always suffers. Won't regret? She'll take the pain, but just give her truth. She'll take the pain, she just wants Felix to be honest. She's not forcing him. She'll take the pain, just be honest. All she wants was just honesty. But no. He lies. He regrets it. Tch, it's no wonder. She's a killer. Little does he know, she's always breaking when he's sound asleep. When he's so relaxed. Because that's the time where she can just pour every single tear fall from her eyes without anyone noticing to ramble her with questions.

He doesn't know, but all her mistakes are slowly drowning her. Ruining her. Pulling her down deep from the bottom where she feels like she can't breathe anymore.

Little does he know she's trying to pick everything up piece by piece. Trying to make it better piece by piece.

But he doesn't see that. Why can't he see that? Oh probably because she killed Zeke. If only, he knows the truth of what is her true reason. But she's scared. Of what will happen when she opens her mouth. She doesn't want everything to be worse than it already is. It's better to stay silent, if they can't understand her reasons. Even if it feels so unfair, so much pain, so devastating. That's the only thing she could do.

'Please take me away...'

She silently prayed.

(Meanwhile with Felix)

Felix was pacing around the room. He sipped the wine and continued walking back and forth.

Draken: Okay can you sit down please? My head is turning upside down just by looking at you walk back and forth.

Felix: She can't be. She can't be pregnant she can't be!

Draken: Why not? Aren't you happy?

Felix: No! Can't you see? Danger is behind us especially her! Now she's pregnant? I'm worried!

Draken: You're the husband right? It's your duty to watch over her now that she's pregnant with your child. Felix, don't take this the wrong way but, she's carrying a child. An innocent baby, who knows nothing about what's happening. You are not a kid anymore, think about your wife's sake! She needs you. She needs her husband to help her out with everything, but what are you doing now?

Felix: I want to be with her side but... I'm worried that this guy can get to her and hurt her-

Draken: That's why you need to be her all the time. Not minding anything else.

Felix: *Sigh* You're right. I'm sorry. I guess I just got a bit too worried about what the guy did back there in the dungeon.

Draken: I promised you that I'll take care of everything right? Trust me on this one okay?

Felix: Okay. I trust you.

Draken nodded. Felix signed and sipped the wine. He hopes nothing bad goes wrong.

Felix: I'll go on now. I'll watch over her.

Draken nodded and smiled. Felix left the room and left Draken sighing.

Draken: Hopefully you'll fall for her soon enough.

He muttered under his breath. Felix was walking towards the room when he felt someone bump into him. He looked at the person who bumped into him and he saw a maid. Her hair was tied in a bun and was wearing a maid uniform. Her eyes were green.

Maid: Forgive me my King.

Felix: Watch where you're going next time. What's your name?

Maid: Andrea.

Felix: Andrea. Watch your step okay?

Andrea nodded and eyed him flirtingly.

Andrea: So my King, I heard that you are married now. I'm happy.

Felix: That happened long ago but okay thank you.

Andrea: How's married life? I heard that you aren't happy?

Felix: Who told you that?

Andrea: Some of the maids. I just heard their gossips, saying that you aren't happy with your wife. Is she not that good? Is she not enough for you?

Felix: Stop right there. You don't have the rights to say that to her. Remember she's the Queen and you are just a maid. She's my wife and you have no rights to talk to her like that as if she's nobody. And for your questions, yes I am happy with her. Satisfied? If not, your problem. Don't ever say that in front of me again. Understand?

Andrea: Yes my King.

Felix: Get back to work.

He said before walking to the room. She watched his figure, turning right and walk towards their room. She watched with flirty eyes.

Andrea: Soon. You'll be mine soon.

She scoffed before walking away.  Felix arrived at the room when he saw Rheyna curled into a ball sleeping. He signed and closed the door and went to the bed near her and watched her sleep. Felix signed heavily and laid on the bed looking at the wall. What the hell is happening? He doesn't know. He looked at her with so many emotions running through his eyes. It could clearly be seen. He signed exhaustingly. He turned around and sat up. Felix stood up and went to the bathroom to cool down. He filled the bathtub with warm water and stripped his clothes and untied his hair and finally decided to go to the bathtub. He relaxed under the warm water and he closed his eyes.

He
