The Devil In Guise - Chapter 135
******
Stefan stared at the lifeless body in front of him. Isabel and Fabulous were kneeling beside her. Emily was shouting at some people who stood far away. As he walked closer, he saw that the people standing across were his family members. They were surprised to see.
He wondered if they did not see Angelina on the ground? This was their plan, to kill his child before its was born.
“Thank goodness, you are back Stefan” Emily came to where he stood. The weather was cold but she was sweating. “Help me take her in to the house.”
“Y-yes.. I will” he said with confusion written on his face. Stefan looked towards the people he called family once again, they didn’t deserve to be closed to him … not to talk of been called his family.
They were strangers with evil hearts!

He took her inside the house and laid her on his bed. She was cold but he could hear her pulse.
“Call the physician immediately” Stefan ordered. He was not in his right senses after seeing Angelina like. “I hope nothing will happen to the baby Emily ?”
“I don’t know for now Stefan. Let’s wait for the physician to come” Emily replied, moving away from the door. She heard voices coming from the big door. If the royal family comes to the room while Stefan was still angry then there was going to be a fight or drama to entertain her eyes.
“Who went to get the physician ?”
“Fabulous went with the maid, don’t worry. They will be back soon” she answered. She had some herbs in her room that might help. “I will be right back.”
When Emily left ,Stefan felt more lonely. He cursed himself for not seeing the plans of the enemies. He would never forgive them if anything happens to child or Angelina.
“Stefan my boy” his mother voice called. She was standing at the door with people behind. He knew who they were. “I am sorry for what happened. ”
No response. He kissed Angelina’s forehead. It’s was very cold. Stefan rubbed her wrist with his palm, as he waited for Emily to come back with a first aid.
D-did you reach west ? It’s quite strange. Y-you arrived Akkad very… early” princess Amara stammered. She was scared of Stefan . He did not turn to look at them or respond to their questions.
His hands formed a fist as he stood up from the bed. Stefan’s eyes were burning with anger. He went to where his mother was and grabbed her neck. “I will kill you today. Let all my trouble vanish after your death.”
Queen mother Daria could not breath properly. She was losing her breath slowly as Stefan choked her to death. Her eyes were closed and her hands were on his, as she tried to break free from his hold.
“Please don’t do this my prince. You might kill her” Queen Natasha screamed and begged. She wondered where was Lincoln and Emily, now that they were needed.
Emily stood by the door and watched. This excited her . Daria deserve nothing but death. She walked in to the room and raised her fingers in the air. A small wind blew and Stefan released his mother.
“That is okay for now Stefan. She is still your mother.”
“She is not my mother Emily. Queen Daria is the woman who killed my grandmother. I will never forgive her for this” He said, bitterly placing his back on the wall.
“Amara and Natasha, take Daria to her please” Emily instructed. Beside her was the physician who she brought to treat Angelina. “Here is the sick patient”. She pointed at Angelina.
The physician moved to the bed to examine Angelina while the other women took Daria who was still shocked to her room.
Emily went to where Stefan was and held his hand. He was angry. “Don’t cry Stefan. I understand how you feel. But that’s who your mother is. She will always be like this.”
He started sobbing as she wrapped her hands around him and kissed his hair. Such an innocent child!
“What do I do to deserve this Emily ? I have endured all their mistakes for years.”
“Stop crying Stefan. Angelina needs you right now. Let’s hope she wakes up soon” she said, standing up from the floor. Emily helped him to get up too, together they went to where the physician was.
“What is wrong with her ?” Stefan wiped his tears with the back of his hand. “Will she be fine?”
“Do not worry my prince. She lost a lot of blood that’s why” The physician said, rubbing her hand. “I sent fabulous to get some herbs from the house. He will be back soon.”
“What are going to do about her ? Will she continue lying here without you doing nothing and..”
“Calm down Stefan, I brought some pain killers” Emily placed hand on his shoulders. “You are scaring Isabel . Angelina will be fine.”
He forgot that she was in the room with them. When it came to Angelina, he was blinded and would anything just to make things right.
“Fabulous is back” Emily said. She felt his presence in the palace. She closed her eyes and saw him coming to the room. A smile appeared on her face when the door of the room opened.

Queen Natasha and Princess Amara took Queen mother Daria to her room. Her head was spinning and she kept on coughing.
“Get water for the queen” Princess Amara shouted at one of the maid who stood at the door.
The maid dashed to different direction before heading for the kitchen.
They laid her on the bed and covered her with a blanket.
“Send someone to tell your husband what happened here. This is serious” Princess Amara told her.
Queen Natasha was still in the state of shock. Stefan tried to kill his mother today, he would not hesitate to kill them if he comes to know the all whole truth.
“I will sent a maid to tell him” she said with confusion written on her face. She went out of the room leaving Amara alone with Queen mother Daria.
“I pray she dies with that pregnancy tonight mother. All our worries will be gone in one night” She said sitting on the bed. Her mother in-law was coughing with out control.
Princess Amara went to the door and opened it. She wanted to check the maid that was sent to get water when she saw Queen Natasha coming with a tray. The king was with her. This was good.
“How is she doing ?” Lincoln asked when he entered the room. He saw his mother who looked sick and paled. “Mother ? Why did you go there ?”
She could not utter a word to him. Queen mother Daria stretched her hands towards Natasha for water and when it was given to her, she glued it down in a second.
“I warned you about Stefan and Angelina, but you won’t listen. See what has happened to you” Lincoln quarreled. His mother barely listen to his advice. That’s why they kept failing every time. Now, he was left with no option than to marry Angelina. He hoped she dies tonight.
Queen mother Daria cleared her throat before talking “My own son tried to kill me . Can you imagine that ? Why ? Because of a witch!”
“Mother I am disappointed in you than I am with Stefan” Lincoln told her. She looked surprised but he did not care. Yes. Some of the decisions you make without consulting me are hunting you now. Natasha told me everything that Stefan said to you in that room. He said them to everyone’s hearing.
“If we don’t act quickly mother, we might lose everything including Akkad” Queen Natasha said with fear.
“We have to deal with the first person” Queen mother Daria sat up. Lincoln took one of the pillows and made her relaxed her back. “Angelina. Let’s end her story once and for all.”
“We were supposed to end her story but you never agreed mother, rather you promised her a husband” Lincoln spoke. “And it’s me!”
“That was a trap. She has fallen for it. The wedding will take place tomorrow but guess what will happen ? Queen mother Daria asked with a smile.
“We don’t understand you mother” Princess Amara was confused. “How will her marriage to the king benefit us ?”
“There shall be no wedding on that day” She replied. “I will give you instructions to carry out and once you follow them according, I will tell you what the plan is.”
They all nodded with understanding. She had a strong motive. To kill Angelina was now her new passion. No matter what she was going to put an end to all these madness and bring her son’s senses back.
