Chapter 320: ear splitting scream

I laughed, leaning for more, when he froze under me.

His eyes turned hooded, and his skin turned paler. “Andrew?” i called, trying to see if he was still breathing.

I let out a relieved sigh when i saw that he was, but it was faint, almost as though he was not breathing,

“Andrew, are you good?” i said, coming down from him and trying to sit him up.

His body was cold, almost lifeless. I felt my body run a mile per minute as i looked at him.

“fuck!! fuck!! someone!!!! help!” my mind ran through the people that i called, not a single name to the faces of everyone i knew in the castle, not even his personal maid.

“please!!!” i yelled again “the prince is in” the door swung open, revealing the maid.

I felt a sense of relief as she came in. She looked around as though assesing the situation before she pushed me aside, taking him up in one swift movement.

It looked like it was something she had done a hundred times over.

I shook my head, this was definitely not the time to think about that.

I stood up from where i had fallen and landed on my butt, trying as much as possible to cagtch up with her, i needed to know if Andrew was okay,

I needed to know if he was fine, i needed to know if he was still alive.

The words rang in my head over and over, with sweat dripping down my head.

“you cannot follow me” she said, looking at me with a disapproving gaze.

I was shocked, looking at her as i could not believe the tone in which i was spoken to. “excuse me?” i said, looking at herr with wide eyes.

She looked at me for the briefest of minutes before she she continued running like her life depended on it.

I did not listen obviously, running after her with an unconscious Andrew over her shoulder.

“Sevan” she yelled, throwing Andrew on the bed like he was some sack of potatoes.

“hey careful!!! that would hurt” the doctor, the same one that had treated me when i blacked out and hallucinating, rushed out from whereever it was that he was staying initially.

“how is this possoble, he was fine…” he stopped when he saw me, looking to the maid.

“Susan” he said, looking at me before looking back at her.

She looked to her side, jumping slightly when she saw me, as though she had not noticed that i had been here all along.

“i thought i told you not to follow” she said, talking to me as though she was scolding a child.

“you watch your tone with me miss” i said, taking a step towards her so that i could seem a bit infuriating, but she was not moved. “you very well know that i am..” she took me by my hands, looking me straight in the eyes.

It was obvious that she was not afraid to shove me out of the room if need be.

“i would only tell you this once, i need you out of the room this instant. For the sake of the Future king” she said, making me feel more and more uneasy around her.

Who the fuck was she? I thought, looking at her from top to bottom. She looked like she owned the place, not even caring about the consequences of her actions.

It was obvious that she had some strong connections or ties with Andrew to make her think she could talk to me.. the wife to the ‘future king’ as she put it, that way.

‘could it be…’ i thought as my mind went back to what Lucia showed me. I felt this particular sensation crawl up to me as i thought of it before shaking it off.

There was no need going back to that. Doubting him when he had not given me a reason to, the major reason why we had a fight in the first place was not something i wanted to bring up again, but she was pushing it.

“fine, i would go” i said, forcefully pulling my hands away from her grip. I walked away, looking back every now and then to see the unconcious body of Andrew before i stepped out.

Just as the door closed, i was met with screams, gut wenching screams.

I knew that voice anywhere. It was the voice that i wished to hear in my dreams of recent, but never, in a million years did i think i wanted to hear him sound this way.

I rushed to open the door, but just as i suspected, the door was already locked. I was panicking. Trying as much as possible to stay calm. Those thoughts flew out the window when another ear splitting scream ran down my spine

“what the fuck are you doing to him!!!” i yelled, looking around for something to break the door with.

Then all of a sudden, the screaming stopped, the struggling also stopped. It was dead silent for a while, almost as though eveyone kind of disappeared.

I placed my ears against the door, desperate to know what was going on.

“…. breathing” i heard one of them, most likely the maid say.

“i don’t know…. we…. inform the queen…” it was getting harder and harder to listen in on what they were saying, mostly because they were speaking in hushed tones, but that did not for a moment, stop me. I was in desperate need of answers and i was going to get it, one way or the other.

“.. are you sure…. dead…” i felt my heart shatter. It was a miracle how everyone was not coming out to hear the ear splitting shattering sound of my heart.

Nothing made sense, and i was trying my best not to jump into conclusions.

“no” i said, falling to my knees and folding myself into a ball.

The world was looking bleak, and i knew just the reason why…
