Chapter Four

"I should have known that Krystal was the one who had won over your heart .

Something I couldn't do when you had Carmen and now ,I couldn't even defeat Krystal into making you mine only .

Now I feel like the world's number one fool ,she uttered presuming that Wales' silence meant concern ."

At the welcome ceremonial function for Krystal ,you couldn't take your eyes off her .

You couldn't bear seeing her in pain and when you caught her veil , you still kept it safely instead of disposing it .

When she almost fell down the stairs in the royal court ,you quickly ran to her aid without hesitation .

Ha ! ,even when she tried killing herself,you went to save her .

I'd seen how much you cared for Carmen but this ,I'd seen double the affection and care towards Krystal .

Many might not have realized it but then ,I did realize it Wales .

Wales ,I might seem stupid for forcing myself on you to love me but then ,I'm not blind .

I know very well that ,Krystal is the one after your heart .

My mind and heart tell me the same thing and I know I can't be mistaking about my instincts .

"Rhian walked towards Wales and instead of getting angry just like her temper always led her ,she patted his shoulders ."

"Wales ,i 'm the one who destroyed your life .I ruined in your happiness because of my own selfishness but now ,I have realized that love can't be forced.

Now I will fix your life again and make it look like it used to be before by letting you go to the one for whom your heart beats for .

I separated Carmen and you but now ,I won't make the mistake of separating Krystal from you .

Go for Krystal , because if I was your only barrier then ,I'm out of the way now .Go for her if you are still interested in her . "

"Go for her if you are really interested in her ,these words repeated in Wales' head and at a point , was shocked to hear it from Rhian's mouth .

She was not the Rhian he knew ,he thought about it ."

I know you are shocked to hear this from my mouth because this is unusual of me but now ,I've realized where I went wrong and believe me when I tell you that I want to amend my mistakes .

If I seriously want to move on in life ,then I will have to amend my mistakes and start afresh ; a life void of guilt and haunts .

Maybe ,true love comes by chance or destiny so I prefer being the friend you once had Wales .

Go for Krystal and stay happy but at least ,can I hug you even if it's for the last ,she said pleadingly but had the joy in her heart .

"Wales hugged her ....thank you Rhian ,thank you so much ,he uttered and placed a long kiss on her forehead ."

Go ..Rhian uttered and Wales without hesitating left for Krystal's chamber in disguise as a guard .

"Krystal was surprised when she woke up and saw Alexa , Leticia , Lydia ,Sara and Laura all sitting comfortably for her to wake up but she was stunned when she saw that tall built up man in front of her .

His honeysuckle scent and handsomeness caught her full attention .

When she saw him as well as his entire family ,she became teary .

"Wales ,she uttered and quickly ran into his embrace .

His breath was warm and he snug her smoothly till she was finally calm .

"I knew you'd come ,she held his soft cheeks and they leaned their foreheads against each other drowning in deep emotions .

Only God could determine the strong emotions that was lit up between these two "love birds " .

Krystal thought ,it was all done with her love story with Wales .She thought she would only have to keep on to their memories till she aged and finally passed away one day .

However ,Wales thought that living without her was highly impossible and he just couldn't hang on to their memories .

Thank God Queen Romina and Queen Marga were both there to settle out the issue .

Leaving with Krystal would limit their burden of the king chasing after her son ,Queen Marga thought with a pinch of smile spreading across her magnificent face .

"We got to leave now ,Queen Marga proposed but then ,who will close the passage route once we get into the passage way ? ,Queen Marga asked ."

"I will do it ..."

Suddenly ,a familiar voice with a shadow following behind swiftly said and they drew closer .

They were all stunned but Wales wasn't ,instead he thanked God that she arrived just in the when they needed her .

'Rhian ?

Krystal 's heart skipped a beat at the mention of her name .

What was she doing here ? ,Krystal questioned her conscience and took a look at the lady who stood beside Rhian but almost disappearing from their sights .

Th...this was the girl I saved from Rhian sometime ago ; Grace .

But why are they here ?

Had their plans fallen down to the drain ? ,Krystal thought for sometime .

"What are ...."

Calm down Krystal ,Rhian interrupted .You don't need to be nervous because I'm here .On the contrary ,even though I know this will surprise you ,I'm here because I'm just like you all .

Everyone was stunned when Rhian spoke however ,Wales explained the whole situation to them and they felt relieved but Krystal was still not convinced .

"A lioness will always be a lioness ,she thought with her hands positioned highly on her hips " .

"If you don't trust her then ,trust me ,Wales said to Krystal and she gave him an assuring smile yet ,she was still not convinced ."

What now ?

Alexa asked with a tiresome expression .

'We are the ones who will ensure your smooth transition and after that we will also leave as well .

I know you all don't trust me ,probably because of my old ways and i don't expect you to trust me either but then ,I suggest we put our egos and differences aside and think about the benefits after moving away from here .
