chapter 11

Divien's Pov.

It's been a week now and I haven't heard from the guards who went in search of my wife. I was still in her room thinking of her, blaming myself for her kidnap, I laid my head on the wall, staring at her room, the thought of losing her came back, with anger I used my head to hit the wall and I fell unconscious, maybe not completely, because I drifted into another world, it was filled with darkness, I was trying to find my way out, when I heard her voice, she was calling my name, she sounded so calm, she kept on calling my name before saying something, but I couldn't hear her clearly, I tried finding her, following the sound of her voice.

I was now standing in front of a building, it was the only building inside the forest, it had a symbol on it, it was the drawing of a wolf, I could hear her voice more loudly now, I was about opening the door, when I heard some people discussing, so I hid behind a pillar.

Derek: it's been a week now, I think you should go back to the palace, they would be looking for you, I need to know their every move, and I need you to deliver a message to the king.

Nicholas: How am I supposed to do that brother, what will I tell them when I go back with a message from the werewolves, and my whereabouts since the last few days, they'll get suspicious of me.

Derek: just tell them, your mother fell sick, so you went to look after her, it was so serious and urgent so you had to leave without informing people, now you were on your way back when you got attacked the werewolves which is us, and they left you a message for the king.

Nicholas: How will they believe I was attacked and not lieing?

Derek: we'll apply some bruises

Nicholas: Real bruises?

Derek: yes, real bruises, so it will be believing.

Nicholas: you owe me a lot, for what am doing.

Divien's Pov

They were still discussing but their voices were getting faint and a few moments later, everywhere became blank again, few moments later I heard someone calling my name again but it wasn't my wife, I slowly opened my eyes, and I saw synthia and the head nurse in Adrianna's Room, I was lying on her bed with a lot of pain from my head, I slowly raised my hands to touch my head when synthia shouted at me like I was some sort of kid.

Synthia: don't touch it, you'll hurt yourself.

Lord Divien: what happened?

Synthia: I came into the room to check on you, when I saw you bleeding from your head, I tried calling you but you were unconscious, I called the head nurse, and she attended to you, it's been three days now but you were still unconscious, so I called the nurse again, she said you were in coma, you started shouting------

Lord Divien: what did I say while I was unconscious.

Synthia: Things like, I'll kill you for taking my wife away, how can you stab me in the back, i trusted you. Those were some of the things you said while shaking on the bed, the nurse said it could be a reaction to the kidnap of the queen, and that was why you were acting that way.

Lord Divien: How's the search going, have they found anything?

Synthia: They actually found someone.

Lord Divien: who?

Synthia: Nicholas, and they found him badly injured, he was almost at the point of death, he's been taken care of.

Lord Divien: what was he doing there?

Synthia: he said his mother was in a critical condition, so he had to leave immediately, and on his way back he was attacked by the werewolves, and we found something on him.

Lord Divien: what did you find?

Synthia: it's a letter from the werewolves saying they want your life In return for the Queen's life, they say if you don't find them within a week, they'll kill the Queen.

Lord Divien: How dare he (trying to stand up).

Synthia: where are you going?

Lord Divien: To have a little chat with Nicholas.

Synthia: Divien, don't do anything stupid.

In Nicholas's room

Lord Divien: (Badges in)

Nicholas: My king you are here, believe me I tried all I could to fight them, but I couldn't.

Lord Divien: where's my wife?

Nicholas: my king, I don't understand, what do you mean?

Lord Divien: I said where is my wife.

Nicholas: my king I don't know.

Lord Divien: (grabbing lenna by the neck) where Is my wife.

Synthia: Divien, what are you doing?

Lord Divien: Don't interfere.

Nicholas:you king, you are hurting my wife.

Lord Divien: I won't repeat myself, where Is my wife.

Lenna:My love, please just tell her him(coughing hard)

Lord Divien: Time isn't on her side, she might not be lucky Nicholas, just tell me where my wife is, then maybe I'll let your wife live.

Lenna: (coughing and struggling for breathe) please my love (coughing).

Nicholas: fine, I'll tell you, just let go of my wife.

Lord Divien: (releasing lenna) you'll take me there.

Nicholas: But----------

Lord Divien: No excuses if you want your family safe

Nicholas: yes, my king
