The Emperor's Prisoner

03

... ...

The sound of nature again disturbed him, the rays of the sun began to hit the royal court. Last night I could not sleep, even I still felt his touch even though he had already left the room by dawn. My tears are already dry. How not, counted all night I can only cry. He's really good at making me sick. Especially with that reality, the more it pierced my heart.

 

“ I miss you guys..” I see.

 

Enrick POV

 

3 Today I still can't believe that my little girl is the daughter of that demonic woman. At first I was very angry and wanted to kill him. That demonic woman was the mastermind of my pain all along. Knowing this fact I decided to tell Lucien to find out where Morgan was, I hadn't seen him in a long time. Even though I could still be alone with her last night, I guess I should find another way to ease this pain. Only Morgan, who's a witch, can help me.

 

“noble, I have managed to find out his whereabouts” I am still in my work space.

 

“ how long is the trip?”

“ I think 2 days we will arrive at his place” replied lucien, my bodyguard.

“ we leave now” I immediately walk out the room while Lucien follows me behind.

 

We rode the horse at medium speed, some of us had time to rest and resume the journey. I deliberately did not tell my father or mother, king and empress, I did not want more and more people to know about this secret. Just enough Lucien and Morgan know.

 

“ noble, please enter “ greet morgan when we get to his place. You could say this is just a cave on the mountain slope.

 

“ there is something you need to know and re-investigate. This relates to our Zen ku” sitting in a room with a table and circular chair. Not to forget the tea that still carries the smoke.

 

“ you mean Zen, Zinia that cute girl?”

 

“ yes, she is the daughter of that woman,”

 

“ sir sure? Zenia Zoya's daughter?”

 

“ he himself said it when reading the history of the letter you sent, he was so shocked when the name of his mother and village was listed there”

 

“ so he already knew that we were the mastermind of the attack that night. “ I snickered a little. Morgan looks riled up maybe he feels sorry for Zinia.

 

“ is not that way we can find out the offerings” cut Lucien.

 

 

“lord already explained the reason we attacked his village?”

 

“ he won't believe anything I'll say back then” they justify my reasoning with a small nod.

 

“ I want you to find out is whether it has anything to do with Zen not feeling pain every night. You know for yourself if that night comes not only me who is in pain but everyone who touches me will feel it.”

 

“ what because of mother and child relationship,?” ask Lucien

 

“ I don't think so trivial, at first I thought because Zen was from the same village so he was immune, but now I start doubting him” occasionally I sip tea on the table.

 

“ what lest zenia is the cause of the curse you can not disappear until now?” lucien spoke again and they looked at each other. A slight frown on Morgan's forehead indicates he's thinking hard.

 

“ I think the reason is a little reasonable, but in reality when the curse is taking place Zen did not even do anything, it could be that he did not know anything related to the curse” explained Morgan.

 

“ is also what I'm thinking if Zen does not know, it means the sender and the performer are still doing ritual”.

 

“ you're right sir, and the only way is dizzying material offerings”

 

 

Zenia POV's

It's been almost a week now that Enrick hasn't seen me, I've just confined myself to his room. Only food delivery and hygiene servants are allowed into the room. I repeatedly thought about how to eliminate the man, but there was no idea at all. The man has no weaknesses.

 

This morning as usual I sat on the balcony. Enjoying the scenery more precisely daydreaming and loving my life. 5 years with the man could not help me at all in finding his hospitality. I could only sigh and end up angry with myself.

 

 

Like him I can't accept if my destiny is like this. Each time I remember how tragic the 5-year incident was, the sense of tightness is now more and more I feel. This truth is really tormenting me. Regretfully, I'm beginning to regret having met Enrick. I began to regret myself for being so easy to believe that I was fooled by the camouflage of her kindness.

 

I bent my legs and leaned against the balcony railing. My hair was a little blown away, covering part of my face. Should I give up?. There was no point fighting a crown prince, even more so he was Enrick. I'm just picking up death. Even a single throw left me helpless and almost dead. At least if I have to die, I'll take him to die too.

 

Yeah right, I got to make him pay for what he did to me. I had to frame him. Even if the payment for his death was by my death, I would have been willing.
