Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 373
“Your highness”
“Sister”
“cousin”
They all called out with panic and fell into a daze, everything felt so mythical
Everything happened so fast that Jeffery or one could not explain.
One and Jeffrey we’re the first to snap out of their daze, “report to his Majesty,” Jeffery instructed.
He looked at One and the two of them shared and understood. Without saying any words they put jump down into the water.
One of the guards hurried out to follow Jeffery’s instructions.
“You,” the guard left pointed at Eva, “you seem to know the way guard them all,” After saying that he also jumped into the water.
The sea under the waterfall was very deep. The more people search for Ellen the better their chances of finding her on time.
Richard also nodded at Danny before going into the water. Princess Ema was dissatisfied. She did not know why many people were anxious to save Ellen. She prayed and hope that the river will swallow her up and if they found her, she should be dead.
Lawrence cooperated with Eva and they were soon down. When they arrived they saw the carriages but the guards were gone.
One of them had followed the other guard to report to the king and call a physician since may Ellen needed one.
Princess Ema rolled her eyes but she felt good, a few minutes has already passed but Ellen was yet to be brought out of the water, even if five men were searching for her. This is because the more Ellen stayed in the water the higher the chances that she will be dead or in the stomach, of a fish.
Thinking about this, Ema was in a good mood. It was already past lunchtime so Ema felt hungry. They did not travel with any food but they were snacks and tea in the carriage.
Princess Ema climbs into the carriage to help herself. When she was going into the carriage she bowed her head and she looked sad and frightened. Her shoulder shook lightly and one will think that she was crying but the truth was she was trying her best to hold back her laughter.
Princess Ema’s reason for targeting Ellen was simple, she thought that as long as Ellen dead she will be able to take her place.
Ellen’s marriage to the king of Avalo was something that was arranged by the two kingdoms, so she believed that to continue the alliance king Sebastian would have to marry another and that person will be her.
It was fortunate that she did not have other sisters. Princess Ema sips her tea and eats the snacks in a good mood. The more time passed without news, the sweater the tea tasted in her tongue.
“She would be fine right?” Jane was worried, although she hated Ellen, she did not wish for her to die. Unlike the overconfident Ema, Jane knew that there was a chance that the king of Avalo will break the alliance between the two kingdoms if Ellen dead this day.
“She has to be,” Danny could not think of another possibility. Even Lawrence felt like going into the water as time passed but he knew someone needed to stay and protect the rest. He could not understand why it was so difficult to find Ellen.
…
Avalon Royal Palace
Sebastian had the men and General training after breakfast. They continued to train till lunchtime but Sebastian had no plans of going easy on them.
The war coming will be fierce, Sebastian knew that much. Emperor Vanish was preparing his men and Sebastian did not dare act recklessly. Although he was sure of victory, if the soldiers from Avalo were not well prepared then the loss will still be heavy.
Some of the men who trained in the morning could not help glancing towards the palaces, hoping that the Queen will come and call the king for lunch but that did not happen.
“Your Majesty,” suddenly, a loud voice called out, Sebastian was already feeling that something was wrong for more than an hour. He could not explain why his heart has been beating fast.
Immediately he heard the sound of an approaching horse at full speed, Sebastian had a guess but he hoped and prayed he was wrong for once.
“Your Majesty,” the guard who rode the horse fell on his face after climbing down the horse. He was taking deep breaths to calm down.
“Speak,” Sebastian tried his best to hid his fear. When the guard heard his cold voice he felt his spirit leave his body. If anything happens to the Queen, then they were all done for.
“Her highness, she fell into the water,” the guard said in one breath. Although he wish he did not have to bring such news, he did not dare try the king’s patience.
For the first time, Sebastian felt that his good ears developed some problems, or perhaps the guard has spoken another language. “What did you say?” He asked in a calm voice. He refused to believe in the conclusion his mind has reached.
“Her highest slipped of the clip into the water,” the guard had no choice but to repeat himself and add more details.
“Who?” Sebastian asked, even if he was sure the person was Ellen he did not want to believe it. Maybe the guard was talking about someone else.
“Your Queen, your Majesty,” after saying this the guards did not dare breathe loudly. The men close by heard him. They were shocked by the information that they had all stopped training.
Those who could not hear started to whisper among themselves.
Without saying a word, Sebastian mount the horse that the guard has brought, he was too anxious to think of anything else. All he wanted to do was see his sunshine.
“No, Sunshine you have to be fine, you can not push me back to darkness,” he chanted as he rode the horse as fast as possible.
Luckily, the stable was not far away, the twenty immediately got their horses and have the guard who reported to the king lead the way.
The other men and general should gave been happy that they got time to rest but how could they, when their heart was hanging on their throat hearing the news.
