Chapter forty nine

There's one more thing which was added to this letter .

'Krystal picks it up from her bed and hands it to Alexa .'

This is a secret route from the outskirts of Ulka kingdom to Mugal kingdom but this map isn't complete .

It isn't complete because the secret route out of Mugal kingdom to the outskirts of Ulka kingdom isn't known .

This simply means that ,Myel wants us to find the secret route out this kingdom and meet her ,Krystal said in a curious tone .

But how will we do that ,Krystal ?

There are three secret routes out of this kingdom and each one is guarded strongly by giant guards who are dump .

The only thing they respond to is to kill anyone who tries to escape through the routes ,other than that ,then the queens who didn't like being by the king would have already escaped .

It is only in cases of emergency that the king would allow the royal family to escape through these secret routes .

Even with that ,none of the routes leads to the Ulka kingdom ,Laura said .

But there is one extra route which is not known .It 's that route that leads to the outskirts of Ulka kingdom ,the one who drew the map knows this perfectly well ,Sara added .

Yes ,there's one route in this kingdom that is not known .The king even doesn't know where the route is .

What are you talking about Lydia ?

Krystal ,my grandmother once told me that ,King Heman ; father of king Duxan built a secret route out of this kingdom without the knowledge of anyone .

It's a secret he sent to his death because of his reasons .

It was after king Heman passed away that my grandmother told me this ,she used to be the fort holder .

My grandmother breath her last without saying anything but I remember she said 'chamber' as her eyes went off and she became cold .

Because she could only mention chamber before she breath her last ,my mother speculated that ,the fourth secret route out of this kingdom is through a chamber .

'When Lydia uttered these words ,they were all left thinking with just one question ,which chamber could this route be ? '

It may be true that this chamber with the secret route really exist but there are about sixty royal chambers and forty servant chambers ,how are we going to find this route out of this kingdom ?

If we say we will search in every chamber then we will be left suspicious and time would be wasted . The more time we waste ,the more my pregnancy will become visible and all eyes will be on me .

I don't want my child to suffer my fate and that's why I need to escape immediately .

I know that Alexa ,but we will have to find this secret route before we can escape from this kingdom .

It will take time doing that but wait ...

Lydia ,since your grandmother was a fort holder ,it means that her records about the kingdom are still there .

We will get to know the route if we get her records .

Krystal is right ,Alexa chipped herself in. We will need all her fort records .I'm sure she has them at home .

No ,there is no fort records at home except the one she handed over to my mother .Those were her personal records .

But if it would be of use then I will bring it to you .

All you need to do is to give me permission with your royal stamp that you sent me home to take care of my mother .

'Without hesitating ,Krystal wrote the letter and placed her royal stamp on it quickly handing it over to Lydia .

She immediately left after receiving the letter.'

Alexa ,I think you have to go now .If people see you frequently coming into my chamber then they will suspect us .

We will meet in the evening once Lydia arrives with the records .

'Okay Krystal ,I will be careful but don't forget to prompt me once anything comes up .

Thank you ,she hugged her immensely and left as her guards kept their watch to prevent anyone from seeing her. '

*****WALES' CHAMBER *****

I'm glad you are doing better son ,you really startled me son ,she said in tears as she leaned her head closely to his .

Mama ,enough already .I hate to see you in tears and besides I'm getting better .My body is responding greatly to treatment so don't worry about me anymore .

'How can you ask me not to worry ?

I could have died just with the thought of losing you .'

"Yes love ,Rhian interrupted .

You don't know the stress you put us through when we thought that you aren't going to make it .

Anyway ,thank God that queen Romina gave us some herbs for your treatment .I must admit that ,her herbs were very effective."

'Queen Romina ?

Mama ,did aunt give you the herbs for my treatment ,Wales asked his mum sitting on his bed?'

"Yes she did , son ".

Mama ,I think this is the perfect time for you to realise the essence of family .

Aunt still loves you even after everything you did to her .

Mama ,put aside your ego and seek forgiveness from her.

As well as I know aunt ,she will forgive you for all your misdeeds because no mother can get angry at her child for the rest of her life .

Take a look at me, I was very stubborn and I never listened to you but each time I went through troubles ,you were there, ready to save me .

Please mum ,go back home ,go back to family .

"Look son ,times have changed and nothing can be fixed between queen Romina and I .

I went to her because I was desperate and not because I wanted to make up for lost times .

Besides ,I know she gave me those herbs for your sake .

We are over with this topic ,she left the room immediately ."

"But mum...."

"Calm down love ,give her sometime and everything will be fine .

I promise you ."
