Oliver did not fail to make his entrance grand as he stepped into the palace. But the gloominess and worry that encamped it discouraged him. It irked him rather, as when he stepped into the palace's courtyard, the faces of all the servants that passed by him were etched with distinct worried expressions. Deep down inside of him, a bile of anger rose up at the fact that Adonis had barely stayed in the palace since he bore the title of a prince, yet they were all worried about his disappearance. When, in all his life stayed living in the palace, he’d only been served, but never worried about. It had caused his hatred for all the servants that the only way he consoled his bruised ego was the thought that they were below him. Slaves. But then, seeing them all concerned about Adonis and having the audacity to greet him with their flaccid expressions, he became green with envy as he made his way towards the direction of the main hall.Adonis had not only stolen his throne from him, but his

“…There is a much created disturbance in the heart of the citizens since the news of the newly revealed Prince's disappearance, ” Disgusted that even after he’d changed the station five times, the news that Adonis had disappeared was like the topic of discussion for the whole radio channels, Oliver turned off his car's radio. He undid the tie he had on his neck as it seemed to add to his frustration, driving through the road that led to his destination. When he got to the outer end of the secluded road, he parked and alighted from the vehicle. After a short, cautious surveying glance about the whole neighborhood just to make sure he was not followed, Oliver went on, concluding the fact the he wasn’t.As he made his way into the bushes with eagerness to see the uninvited guest in his lair, the guards that had him followed stepped out of their car, one of them observing his movement with a binocular. It was unknown to Oliver that he had indeed been followed, and he could not have sight

“He's still on the loose,” Jesse informed Valerie as they stood in wait in the hallway foe when the doctor would come out and tell them that Adonis was now stable for them to see him, because it had already taken hours. “But I promise, we will find him. He couldn’t have gone so far, so when we do catch him, he will pay for his sins,” Valerie nodded in acknowledgement, although she did not desire to talk much about Oliver, because the thought of him still sent shivers down her spine, and she sat onto the waiting bench. “Thank you,” she uttered as her gaze raised up at Jesse, sincerity laced in them. “Really, I mean it. You do a lot for Adonis and I’m sure he would be so grateful.” She had gotten to know, as she wasn’t aware before, that Jesse was his right hand man. And she had also recognized him the time he’d come over to her through the lobby to check up on both Adonis and her as the man who had saved them from an attack they got into several weeks ago. She could never forget his

Upon all that had happened during just a week in the country, the King still laid in a peaceful slumber on his hospital bed, receiving multiple treatments to sustain his life on a daily basis. According to the doctor’s diagnosis, he had suffered a chronic cardiac arrest, and he needed enough medical attention, else his life would be as good as gone. A lot of effort was put into recuperating the king by the doctors, as they were not a bit ready to lose their king yet, plus the pressure mounted upon them by the queen Sophie who sometimes visited the King to keep him company. Some of the royal elders appointed to occasionally pay the King visits at the hospital decided once again to pay the king a visit and check up on his health progress, before they would break the news of all that had been happening in his absence to him. But as they met him fast asleep on the bed, with a drip tube inserted in his skin and an ECG monitor reading his heart rate on a normal pulse, they decided it best

Adonis took a seat amongst the elders, “well, we can start now.” He announced with an authoritative voice that even he did not know that he possessed.“Yes, your highness, the prince has committed a very grave offence, one that is not acceptable even in any society, not only did he try to take the life of a person but this person is actually the next in line to the throne of the country, I say that we let him face the law on his own without any help at all and he will serve whatever sentence that he is served.” Sir Hitchhacker said and Lord Bassey immediately got onto his feet.“That is just so extreme, you know, one would think you all have it in for the second prince or something, this is all just so unnecessary and far-fetched, not even the king would ever allow that gibberish that you just said, he is still the prince and so the fact that he made this little mistake does not make him less of one. He is the prince of our country, our kingdom and so he would still be regarded and tr
