Cordelia felt something weird in her belly as she opened her eyes in pain and despair. She winces as she felt wet all around her body and stomach, reached down to touch her belly as touched wet moisture of water or something like that, lifted her fingers as she saw red blood on her them, widened her eyes screamed in fear.
Brishen opened his eyes in shock as he was worried about his beloved wife!
Brishen, " what's wrong, Cordelia!" he noticed his wife was in her blood as she was screaming helplessly. Brishen shouted for help; some times has passed until the maids get into to check on the princess. She lost her baby soon before she goes to labor, maids cleaned everywhere, and changed her gown, all the time, Cordelia stayed silent and stared at them in grief.
Brishen felt sorry for her, still didn't dare to say a word. Whenever Cordelia was angry, her demon side became more vigorous, so no one dared to get close to her, even her father!
Brishen was watching her tears that were running down her eyes to her chin, master to in after checking on her feared to say something, Brishen knew it wasn't easy for anyone to tell her the bad news. Her eyes were already red.No one could say to it because of the cry or her dark side?
Brishen wished Noah or his mother would be there to tell her what was happening with her, as no one was there but him and the maester he let him talk.
Maester curved his lips as he held his breath for a while before saying, " I'm afraid you never can get pregnant" at this, Cordelia loosened her control; her eyes turned red, and her hair turned to fire. Brishen stepped back as he was about to run away from the room. Cordelia set everything on fire, screamed in sorrow.
Maester turned to run away as soon as possible. Cordelia reached out to grab his shoulder and shriek in anger.
Cordelia " YOU LIE!" she said as she dragged him around the room only by her eyesight.he begged for help before drowning in fire. Cordelia came onto the hall of the royal court. Arthur gets out of his place in a hurry to make her calm .as; he scolded his daughter. Cordelia's temper got worst; she was about to kill her father when an arrow passed through her chest, and she fell on the ground.
It was Brayton who just got into the court; he ran onto Arthur in fear of his health.
Arthur " I'm fine, check on her"
another maester took the Arrow out of Cordelia's chest in fear as his hands were shaking. Guards ran onto upstairs to remove the fire.
Maester " she is fine, it didn't hit her heart," he relieved with a shaky voice as Arthur was gasping for air in fear of his life and his daughter's health.
Brishen smirked as he was checking his brother's face.
"she can't get pregnant," he relieved as Arthur gazed at him with dry mouth. He couldn't believe what was happening to his daughter.how could she face this destiny?
"she can't be the queen anymore," he confessed as he relieved hopelessly.anyone who couldn't bring an heir, couldn't be the queen. They couldn't stay in the castle.
Brishen, " I think we need mother back.we are in the war with house Lamber, and we don't have a queen to lead us!" he protested but faced Arthur's disagreement.
Arthur " as current queen's husband, you manage the war until Laura thinks something."
Brayton shook his head in disapproval as he was checking his Arrow that was in Cordelia's chest a second ago. "Laura ordered Brishen to join her. I don't think he can lead us in the war."
He took a deep breath.leaned over on Cordelia to check on the wound on her chest. Brishen raised an eyebrow " She is my wife," he reminded Brayton, made him blush.
Brayton rubbed the back of his head " I didn't mean to be rude, but you have to get back to mother" by saying the word 'mother' Arthur and Brishen looked at him with widening eyes.
Arthur, " what do you mean .mother?"
Brayton blushed even more. He took a deep breath, preferred not to reply to that, although Brishen and Arthur were keen to know the truth. So he relieved," she is my mother too."
with this, Brishen slapped his forehead with his palm and made a loud sound out of his mouth," is the mother of the world?"
Arthur sighed. He didn't like to talk on his mother's back. He just shrugged, " I will manage the war, you two go to mother and tell her to send us a troop to start our war against house Limber. I heard they are getting stronger. They have the house Vague on their side!"
Brayton nodded as he was gazing down at Cordelia," what should we do with her? she wouldn't take this quickly."
Arthur shrugged " we just don't tell her until Laura gets here with her troop. She is the only one who dares to tell Cordelia that she has to leave the court."
Brishen sighed, " I supposed I should pack my stuff to leave towards the south then."
He said unwillingly as Brayton shook his head, " Noah needs help at the north. He needs the alliance to get back his throne."
he said, didn't know the fact that Brishen hates someone commands him! especially one of the bastards of his mother!he pulled out his sword" what did you say, bastard?" he ground as Brayton shrugged " Noah told me so, I'm just repeating his words."
Cordelia glanced from the corner of her eyes, moaned in pain. Arthur picked her up from the floor, laid her on his arms, laid a kiss on her forehead. She grinned looked out her father, although her grin turned to a frown as she reminded her child's death.
Cordelia " You were wrong; I don't have my mother's heart. I am a demon," she confessed ho[elessly as her eyes got darken in sadness.
Arthur shook his head " you are not a demon, no Cordelia, you are my beautiful angel." he assured her as Brishen shook his head " don't trick her with what she is not! she is a demon, her dark side is much stronger!"
Cordelia glared at him with red eyes, made him took a few steps back, her glare turned into a soft gaze when he noticed Brayton.
Cordelia " Brayton! I didn't see you there. I'm sorry, I feel sick."
Brayton nodded in embarrassment as Brishen smirked, " he was the one who shoots you with an Arrow; we were lucky you don't have a heart; otherwise, you would be dead."
Cordelia furrowed her brows " I have a heart! I'm not a demon!" she shrieked sinisterly with an unhuman choice made everyone tremble in fear. Brayton cleared his throat.
Brayton," she needs a potent wizard to get better. We can't help her anymore."
Brishen shook his head" We tried everything. Nothing could help her now, to now that she is too strong! even for Noah!"
Brayton shook his head " we need Noah here, you go to mother and let her know about the war, I will get Noah here,
I think he has to let his throne be in Osbert's hand a little bit longer as we need him here helping Cordelia.as we have no other wizards as strong as him around us!and witch Forest is empty right now!"
Brishen pushed him onto the walk as he laid a sharp knife on his neck" Do you want to live?" he shouted his question again as he didn't hear any answers. Brayton replied, gasping for air: yes ....yes, please."
Brishen smirked let the knife go turned him around to face him." then don't call her mother, not in front of me."
Brayton smirked, " actually. She relieved something to me that you are not aware of that," he smirked teasingly as Brushen was glaring at him.
Brishen " what is it?" he roared, Arthur stepped closer to say something but preferred to take Cordelia back to her room so that matter could bandage her wound.
Brayton whispered something in Brishen's ear that made him blush out id anger. He took a step back. Squeezed the knife in his palm as blood started oozing out.
Brayton shrugged as he curved his lip and looked at his with mockery and disgust.
Brishen, " you are her son," he raised an eyebrow wanted to kill Brayton, so far.blood was boiling in his body.
Brayton, " I never was her proper son, also its house Barren rule to marry someone who has your blood, so you have pureblood heir."
Brishen slapped him with his palm that was red now out of the blood. Brayton shrugged, " My nanny was a mother to me. I have never seen Laura until a few days ago, So it's okay to be in love. More importantly, I look like my father."
He smirked Brishen punched his face " liar!mother wouldn't sleep with you! never!"
Brayton chuckled punched him back so hard that he fell on the ground. Brayton smirked, " she loved me," he shrugged and walked out. Brishen clenched his fist; he was sure that Brayton was lying to make him angry. He puffed stood up from the ground to head onto the south, somewhere he could find out the truth.
