chapter 24

Mean while the cheif of Lionheart plans to use the marriage between Skylar and prince Zach as a way to use her womb. After she gives birth to a son he will frame her for killing the elephant tusk village's king and his sons. He hates begging the fat pig for a water treaty he would rather have all the land the people and the wealth. He will raise her Skylar and Zach's future son and a tool. He does not know that Zach want to kill him too or that he has a secret wife, Monica. As for Skylar she will be killed for killing the royal family so her son can be king. His own children and grandchildren will enjoy the wealth and most importantly keep their heads.

Chief of Lionheart Village paced in his ornate chamber, his mind consumed with ambition and vengeance. The marriage between Prince Zach and Skylar was not merely a union of hearts but a means to an end—a dark and calculated scheme that would secure his legacy and power.

He poured over maps and scrolls, his eyes narrowing with each passing moment. "Skylar's womb will birth the future king," he muttered to himself, the words carrying a weight of both destiny and deceit. "Once the son is born, she will serve her purpose, and then..."

His thoughts trailed off as he envisioned the downfall of Elephant Tusk Village's royal family. The plan was meticulous: frame Skylar for the regicide, eliminate her as a threat, and raise the child under his guidance, a puppet king in the making.

"But what of Prince Zach?" a voice in Ikenna's mind whispered, a reminder of the dangers lurking in the shadows. He dismissed it with a wave of his hand. "Zach will fall when the time is right. His allegiance to Skylar blinds him to our true intentions."

Unbeknownst to the cheif, Zach harbored his own ambitions and secrets. The prince's desire for power and vengeance mirrored Ikenna's, setting the stage for a deadly confrontation that would shape the fate of Venda
