⟨ SAVING HIS BRIDE ⟩
⟨ SUPRIYA’S ROOM ⟩
Their laughter filled the whole room, as both Supriya and Harlow drink from their cup of Liquor.
“You acted so well Harlow” Supriya said laughing.
“And you too Supriya. That Tatiana thinks she can steal Waylon from me with her beauty, and go scott free” Harlow said.
“Even Thiago is also attracted by her beauty, I’m glad you came up with such a brilliant Idea Harlow” Supriya said, and both of them look at each other.
⟨ FLASH BACK ≈ LAST NIGHT ⟩
“I need your help Supriya” Harlow said.
“With what?” Supriya asked.
“I want to get rid of Tatiana. She is about to steal Waylon from me. Even if Waylon doesn’t say it, I know he is in love with Tatiana”.
Supriya clenched her fingers and said. “What is so special about that Tatiana, even Thiago himself finds her pretty, and wants to find out if she really has powers”.
“That’s why we have to get rid of her Supriya. You and I won’t deny the fact that she is so beautiful, and with her beauty, men won’t hesitate to fall in love with her, including Thiago too”.
“Never Harlow, I’m betrothed to Thiago and he won’t dare fall in love with Tatiana”.
“He can choose not to marry you if he eventually falls in love with Tatiana, just like how Waylon is falling for her” Harlow said
“What should we do?” Supriya asked.
“Tatiana is one of Narmada’s personal maid, right?” Harlow asked and Supriya nods her head.
“Let’s have her poisoned”.
“Poisoned? Are you crazy? You want us to poison Narmada. I and Narmada might not get along, but she is still Thiago’s sister” Supriya said.
“Getting her poisoned, doesn’t actually mean she is going to die” Harlow said.
“Then what version of poison are you talking about?” Supriya asked with her hands under her b**bs.
“Is a kind of Poison that won’t kill her, she is just going to puke out dark blood and lose consciousness, but she is going to wake up after 48 hours” Harlow said.
“Are you sure about this? I don’t want to have someone killed” Supriya said.
“I’m one hundred percent sure about it Supriya, my late grandfather used to be a physician, so I know everything about medicines and poisons”
Supriya let out a sigh and said. “Alright if you say so, but how do we do it?” She asked.
Harlow smirked and said “Leave everything to me, the only thing I need is your support, since you are a princess and also Thiago’s betrothed, you have some authorities here in the palace, and I will be needing that” Harlow said.
“Count me in” Supriya said, and Harlow smirked dangerously.
⟨ STILL ON FLASH BACK ⟩
Tatiana was about leaving the palace’s kitchen when a maid told her that Princess Supriya was looking for her, and after she left, Harlow enters the kitchen and added arsenic poison inside the tea.
“I warned you to stay away from Waylon, but since you chose to sedu-cehim with your beauty, you are going to bear the consequences, because what Harlow wants, Harlow gets” She said and sniggers.
⟨ FLASH BACK ENDS ⟩
Harlow smiled after she remembered how she poisoned Narmada and pin the blame on Tatiana.
“But are you sure Narmada is going to wake up after 48 hours?” Supriya asked.
“Yes she is, all that matter is that Tatiana will be out of the picture tonight”
“Yeah that’s true, because any one who dares to harm the royal family, will have his or head chopped off” Supriya said, and after she said that, both she and Harlow laugh.
“It’s so easy to get her out of the picture” Harlow said, and both of them laugh again. They were about to sip their cup of liquor, when Waylon barged inside Supriya’s neck, grabbing her by the collar.
“Who gave you the right to order Tatiana’s to be whipped!!” He shouted at her.
“Sh poisoned Narmada, I was just doing the right thing” Supriya said.
“Right thing? Did you just say the right thing, huh!!!!” Waylon shouted again, pushing her to the ground.
“Tatiana poisoned your only sister and instead of making her pay for her crimes, you’re defending her. What kind of a brother are you Waylon?” Harlow asked, and Waylon shot her a glare.
“The Tatiana I know will never hurt anyone” Waylon said.
“Really Waylon? The Tatiana you know? Lemme ask you one question, how long have you known Tatiana? Five years? Seven years? For all we know you just recently met Tatiana!!!” Harlow yells at him.
“It doesn’t matter if I just got to know her, all I know is she is not capable of hurting anyone” Waylon said.
“You should check up on your sister instead of trying to protect a girl, who tried to kill to your sister” Harlow said.
Waylon looks at her and leaves the room.
“Do you think he is going to find out we did it?” Supriya asked, looking a bit scared.
“No one is going to find out will did it Supriya, because no one saw me when I did it” Harlow said.
Supriya sighs, taking in her li-ps.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
Waylon enters Narmada’s room and sees the palace physician checking on Narmada. Queen Vanya and King Osvaldo, including Queen Anjali was present.
“How is my sister?” He asked, looking at Narmada. Her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and her li-ps were black and dried.
“She is going to wake up in the next 48 hours” The physician said.
“What kind of poison was used on her?” Queen Vanya asked.
“Arsenic poison, thankfully is a poison that doesn’t kill, it only makes you puke out dark blood and lose consciousness for 48 hours” The physician said.
“How could Tatiana have done this to Narmada, she is a good Princess who has everyone at heart, so why did she do such a thing?” Queen Vanya asked bitterly.
“An evil person will always be an evil person, no matter how good you are to them” Queen Anjali said.
“Just like you, right?” Waylon asked and Queen Anjali looks at him with a hateful glare.
“Where is Tatiana?” King Osvaldo asked.
“She is still locked up in the dungeons and I already asked the bodyguards to stop whipping her” Waylon said.
“She has to be punished for doing this to my only Princess” King Osvaldo said.
“But father, Tatiana is innocent of the crime laid against her” Waylon defended Tatiana.
“And how is she innocent when she almost sent Narmada to het early grave?” King Osvaldo asked.
“There is a mixed up mistake somewhere father, Tatiana is innocent and will never hurt anyone”.
“You don’t know anything about her Waylon, so stopped defending her” Queen Anjali said.
“I wasn’t talking to you, so shut up” Waylon said.
“My decision is final Waylon. You already know the rules, right? Anyone who tries to harm the royal family will have his or head chopped off, and since Tatiana tried to poison my only princess, she is going to be killed under the moonlight tonight” King Osvaldo said and leaves the room.
Queen Anjali snickers and leaves the room too.
“Mother, you have to talk to father, Tatiana is innocent. You have seen her, right? You can tell she is not capable of hurting someone”.
“In as much as I want to believe she didn’t do it, but seeing my only daughter, lying on the bed conscious, is breaking my heart so badly, and don’t try to save her this time around Waylon, like you did when Thiago tried to kill her” Queen Vanya said.
“But she is innocent mother” Waylon said as tears falls down his eyes.
“Not everyone who has an innocent face and portray an innocent behavior, looks innocent Waylon. The world is filled with evil people habiting on it, and we must clear them away before they become stronger to attack” Queen Vanya said and leaves the room.
Waylon looks at Narmada, he is indeed feeling worried for what happened to her, but somehow his worries for Tatiana, is more dee-per than his worries for his only sister, and that alone made him cry.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
⟨ THIAGO’S CHAMBER ⟩
In Thiago’s room, Supriya tried to kis-s Thiago, but he resisted.
“What’s wrong Thiago?” She asked.
“I want you to tell me the truth, did you do it?” He asked.
“Do what?” She asked innocently.
“Don’t give me that fake innocent look of yours, because I’m not going to buy it, you had Narmada poisoned and pin the blame on Tatiana, right?” Thiago asked
“And what makes you think I am the master mind behind what happened to Tatiana?”.
“Because I know you so well Supriya. You act rashly when it comes to me. And since I complimented on her beauty you must have done that to get her out of the picture” Thiago said.
“Since you know I’m obsessed with you, then you shouldn’t have said anything about her beauty” Supriya said.
“I was right. It was all your doings, what were you thinking Supriya?”
“I know I wasn’t thinking straight, but Narmada is not going to die, she is going to wake up after 48 hours, and as for Tatiana, you want to know if she has magic powers, right?”.
“And where is this heading to?” He asked.
“Tatiana’s head will be chopped off under the moonlight tonight, if your suspicion about her is correct that she has magical powers, she is going to save herself from dying”.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
⟨ THE PALACE’S DUNGEON ⟩
Tatiana’s cries could be heard, as she talks to both Kira and Zelda.
“I didn’t do it Zelda, I will never poison Narmada” She said crying.
“I know that Tatiana, Prince Waylon is trying to convince the king that you are innocent, but the King is paying deaf ears to him” Zelda said said.
“How is Narmada doing?” She asked with a crying voice.
“She is going to wake up after 48 hours” Kira said, and Tatiana nods her head crying silently. Her robe was stained with her own blood, if not for Waylon who asked them to stop the whipping, she will have been getting whipped at the clock moves its hand.
Zelda saw the blood in her robe and held her hand from outside the dungeon. “I’m sorry Tatiana” He said.
“Why are you being sorry, Zelda?” Tatiana asked.
“Because I can’t do anything to save you, and that hurts me so much” Zelda said still holding her hand.
Tatiana slowly took her hand from him, cleaning the tears that keeps falling down her eyes.
“Is not your obligation to save me Zelda, so don’t apologize to me. If is my fate to die tonight, I am going to say accept it” Tatiana said and thick tears falls down her eyes.
“Don’t say that Tatiana” Kira said already crying.
“If I die tonight, please look for my best friend, her name is Swati, you should tell her that I love her so much, and to my aunt Manisha, tell her I’m sorry for giving her headaches all the time” Tatiana said crying.
“I’m going to find a way to save you Tatiana, I won’t let you die, that’s a promise” Zelda said and leaves.
“Tatiana” Kira said sniffing back her tears.
“You should leave too, before someone sees you here, I don’t want you to be in danger because of me” Tatiana said, and Kira hesitated, before she finally left.
Tatiana sits on the ground inside the dungeon, crying.
“Cheng if you can hear, please come save your bride, your bride is in danger Cheng, please come and save me” Tatiana said sobbing.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
⟨ NIGHT ⟩
The compound of the palace was filled with fire light sticks, as they were about to witness Tatiana being killed, by cutting off her head. The King was present, like wise Queen Anjali and Queen Vanya, including Thiago, Harlow and Supriya too.
Jai was banned from watching the scene, because of his age, so while others were about witnessing Tatiana’s death, he was told to be in his room, never to come out.
Tatiana was brou-ght out by some bodyguards, and she has tears all over her eyes, as she was being tied to a chair in the center of the palace.
Harlow and Supriya had a satisfactory smile on their face, while Thiago was patiently waiting to see if Tatiana was going to save herself throu-ghmagic. As for Zelda and Waylon, both were crying since they couldn’t save the woman they love.
The man in charge of cutting off Tatiana’s head, stood in front of her, sharpening his sword with another sword, with a killing smirk on his face.
*Cheng please I need you* Tatiana said inwardly as more tears falls down her eyes.
✨✨✨
Back in the cottage where Cheng stays, his heart has been hurting non-stop, and he felt someone was calling for him.
“Why does my heart ach do much?” He muttered, holding hid chest and that was when he notice it was pas-sthe time that Tatiana always comes to see him
“Why is she not here? Ouch!” He muttered in pain as his heart aches again.
He closed his eyes, trying to see what Tatiana was doing since he knows how she smells like, and his eyes went wide-open when he saw in his version that Tatiana was in danger and was also calling for him.
“Tiana” He muttered her name, clenching his fingers, and in a blink of an eye, he teleported out from the cottage.
✨✨✨
Tatiana closed her eyes, ready to accept her fate of dying, when Cheng landed in the palace. He automatically transformed into a demon, with his eyes burning red, and dark flames circulating around him, and the fire sticks went off instantly.
The screaming and running of the palace maids and bodyguards, made Tatiana opened her eyes, and sees Cheng burning in rage of anger.
He looked at the man who was about to cut off Tatiana’s head, and just a move of Cheng’s eyes, branches from trees flew out the trees in the palace and pierced inside his stomach.
“What did heck did you just do!!” Thiago shouted, and a snap of Cheng’s finger, send Thiago flying to the wall.
“Thiago!!!” Queen Anjali screamed going to where he was.
Cheng teleported to where Tatiana was and loose the ropes tied around her. “Sorry I’m late” He said carrying her in a bridal style and more tears falls down Tatiana’s eyes, as she wrapped her hands around his neck.
“What are you waiting for, arrest that demon!!!” Queen Anjali shouted, holding Thiago who was still unconscious.
“If you want to die, then try coming near me” He said with six voices, and the bodyguards instantly dropped their swords.
