ZARA’S POV
“Carl, can you tell me what’s going on. why do you look so calm. why does it look like you knew I was here already?” Tell me what’s going on.
Carl stared at me for a while, as if not knowing what to say. “Your abduction was nned by me, it was me who asked Kieran to abduct you.”
What! did he just say he was the one who ordered my abduction? I stared at him, gobsmacked.
Why would he even do that, what was his reason?
“Exin why you abducted me, why would you even do a thing like that?”
I was eager to hear an exnation, but Carl on the other hand, stayed quiet staring at me.
…
Prince Kieran nced at Carl, and could tell he was nervous. If someone told him that a woman would make Carl nervous, he would never had believed it.
Princess Zara, just who was this woman? Carl has finally met his match, Kieran thought.
He immediately dismissed his guards, even though they were reluctant, and wanted to watch the whole thing, they still had to obey their prince’s order.
…
“King Carl am waiting I said in a stern tone. I couldn’t believe I’ve been worried for nothing.”
Carl sighed, his face void of any emotion. “I abducted you in other to protect you from my enemies.”
CARL’S POV
When King Arthur epted my invitation and came to Everton, I knew he was up to something.
There was no way he would just ept my invitation, considering the fact that we were enemies.
I had my spy watch his every move and I got to know that he was nning a fake attack. He knew he wouldn’t seed if he attempted to abduct Zara, so he sent fake assassins.
The fake assassin he sent, were men from my pce, who betrayed me. he wanted to nt a seed of doubts in people’s mind. He wanted me to be aughing stock.
I allow everything to go ording to his n. At that time Prince Kieran had juste to Everton so I asked him to help.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
We made a n to abduct Zara for real. That way, they will think I have a new enemy. I did it in a way to make everyone believe it was real.
When king Arthur sent for me, I ept his offer, and when Jerald came to me that the princess was abducted, I pretended to be surprise, and furious.
Apart from Kieran and me, No one knew about my ns, not even Jerald.
Everything was going ording to n, king Arthur was taking the bait. He even started to spread the news of Zara’s abduction.
I let him because I had another n. At the wedding tomorrow when Zara shows up king Arthur will be ridiculed for spreading force information.
I exined everything to Zara, an her mouth formed an “O”.
“So prince Kieran is your friend? I thought he was a bad man, that’s why I had beaten him up.”
…
Prince Kieran rolled his eyes. “If only you allowed me to exin before pouncing on me,” he muttered under his breathe.
…
Zara turn to Kieran looking guilty. “I’m sorry, prince Kieran, but you should me Carl. if only he told me about his n, i would have understood. But instead, he kept me in dark. Carl is to me for the misconception.”
I was stunned at how she put the me on me. Why couldn’t she just admit that she acted rashly?
I scoffed, rolling my eyes.
Prince Kieran, Zara proceeded in a pitiful tone walking toward him. I stared at her, wondering what she was up too.
“I never behave so Irrational, but ever since I met this arrogant king Carl, it’s like I’m slowly forgetting my morals. you are his friend, you know how he is.”
Prince kieran nodded his head in agreement. Carl also losses his temper easily and sometimes, he tends to act rashly just like Zara did. Maybe his friend was truly the one corrupting Zara’s manners.
“Princess Zara, I understand what you are saying, and I agree with you. I forgive you for my broken nose and eye,” Kieran mumbled.
I stared in disbelief…
How could this annoying princess say I’m behind her actions? And my fool of a friend just stood there agreeing to whatever she says.
Could she have casted a spell on him? Before I didn’t believe in spells, but now, with the way I acted when she hugged me, and the way Kieran was acting, maybe spell casting was real after all.
…
Zara and I went back to Everton with prince Kieran. I didn’t want anyone to know that Zara was in Everton, so I asked the guards to take her through the secret passage, while I went through the main gate.
Only the men I went with to Nival, were aware of this.
“Jerald, I want you to make the preparation for my wedding, inform everyone.
“But my king, princess Zara has not been found.”
“Just do as I say.”
Jerald looked at Carl with suspicion. Why is he going on with the wedding, Does he know where Zara is? Remembering how Zara was abducted so easily, his suspicion grew even more.
A gave Carl onest look, before walking out.
…
King Arthur and king Darian sat together enjoying themselves. So far, everything has been going in their favor.
Arnold knocked on the door, “Your majesty, may Ie in,” he asked.
“You maye in,” Arthur replied.
Arthur had sent Arnold to keep a close watch on Carl and inform him if Carl made any suspicious move.
“Your Majesty, King Carl left the pce awhile ago and he’s back. He has asked his right hand man to announce that, his wedding will be taking ce tomorrow.”
Both Arthur and Darian turned to Arnold, confused.
“Where did he go when he left the pce?” Arthur inquiried.
“I don’t know, my king. I couldn’t follow him because his right hand man was keeping a close watch on me.”
“Do you think he has found princess Zara?” King Darian reasoned.
“I don’t know king Darian, there was no sign of the princess. And if he found her, why would he keep it a secret,” Arnold retorted.
King Arthur was deep in thoughts. What are you nning Carl? there was no way he would announced his wedding, if he didn’t find the princess, or perhaps know where she was.
Now that he thought of it, Zara’s abduction was suspicious, why didn’t he think of that. In a nation such as Everton, someone could break into the pce and into Carls chamber.
It was to good to be true. Perhaps Carl was behind everything. “If my intuitions are true, that means Carl yed me, and I fell right into his trap.”
