My Crippled Ex-Husband Is An Emperor Task
“You summoned me, your highness,” the maid bowed. “Liah, you know you are my most trusted aide, right?” Cedric straightened up. “Yes, Your Highness,” the girl bowed. “And your family promised that you would be there to fulfill whatever I desire of you, do you remember that?” He asked. “Yes, Your Highness.”“You remember that I am the only one who stood firmly with your family during their times of trial when they were unjustly sentenced by the previous Emperor,” he reminded.Liah couldn't help but look up this time. Why was he reminding her of that suddenly?“Yes, your highness,” she answered nonetheless., swallowing back the questions that arose within her. “Are you willing to do anything for me, no matter the cost?” He asked her. As much as she wanted to respond quickly, she couldn't. There were a lot of things involved in that statement that didn't sit well with her. Sure, she could do whatever he asked her to do but there were limits to it and she intended to make it clear.

“Disrespecting your queen?” Mona repeated, unable to believe he actually said the words. He called a lowly maid a queen in her presence!“Are you questioning me?” His eyes darkened, anger swimming in its depths. “But Styles…”“Your Highness!” He corrected coldly. “Address me without respect one last time and you will regret the day you were born.”Mona was visibly trembling. He had never spoken to her with so much contempt before. To think he was treating her like trash all because of a clumsy, useless maid.“What do I have to do to make you forgive me?” She asked sullenly. “How do I prove that I am truly sorry for everything? When will you deem it fit to take me back?” Styles was taken aback by the audacity. The woman was the most delusional person he had ever come across. “You believe I have plans of taking you back?” He snorted. “Your education was a waste if my wedding was not enough proof that I have moved on with my life. You have five minutes to clean this mess and head out
My Crippled Ex-Husband Is An Emperor Punished
“Are you alright?” Ivory asked when she noticed the girl's petrified expression. It seemed she was battling her inner thoughts. “I… the thing is that my tears dropped into your fruits and I'm not sure how you'd react if I asked that I present you with a new set of fruits. I'd add more pineapples this time,” Liah said. Styles didn't understand why such a small thing was making her tremble so much but Ivory understood the fear of doing something wrong before your masters.“It's alright, Liah. You can take it away,” Ivory said softly. The girl hurried out of the room almost immediately, thanking the gods that they didn't insist on making her eat it or scolding her.“She looked so pale. Is she alright?” Styles asked Ivory.“I don't know. I guess she is just overwhelmed. It's not every day someone offers to make your dream come true,” she shrugged.“Let's start with the shrimp soup, I'm sure you will love it,” Styles told her.“Let's see how crazy it drives my taste buds.” Liah reached

“It's been forty-eight and the coronation will start in a few hours and Styles is still far from incapacitated,” Cedric fumed. “I'm sorry, my Lord but I don't know what happened. I added the substance just as you instructed…”“Do not give that!” Cedric snapped. “If you indeed gave him, he is supposed to be down in less than twenty-four hours and it's been two days already. Do you think I'm stupid?” The man was furious and it terrified Liah but telling the truth was not an option. “Maybe the quantity was too little to take effect. You told me I needed just a lunch so I didn't see the need to add more than that. I guess we were wrong in the specifications,” Liah suggested.At first, he seemed to buy her explanation but then he remembered he had used just a pinch of that medicine to incapacitate the late Emperor.How come she was claiming it didn't work for the son? The girl was obviously playing games with him and he would make sure she paid for it. “You think you're smart right? I'

Ragi and Styles were on a stroll around the palace. “I will make sure all parameters are heavily guarded and I also the crowning ritual takes place in a very strategic corner to prevent both seen and unseen attacks,” Ragi informed Styles.“Is all that really necessary? It's our day, shouldn't we enjoy it?” Styles said. “We will enjoy it but it must be with caution. Your father had many enemies and there are still people who do not wish to see you on the throne. We need to make sure that no matter what happens, no harm befalls you,” Ragi pointed out.“You have a point. I'll let you do your thing then and please make sure to tell the guards that no one without an invite should be allowed in. The ceremony is strictly on invitation,” Styles said. “I will ensure that the information is conveyed, your highness. I suggest you get ready now. The ceremony begins in an hour. You can't be late to your own coronation.”“I won't even dream of it.”*****************Guests began trooping in from

“Why are you just telling me about this?” Elena scolded the girl. Mona was still recovering from the bruises inflicted by the whips and as a result, her family skipped the coronation.Elena was cleaning her wounds when Mona told her about Cedric's offer. “Because I already declined, mother. I didn't think there was a need to mention it,” Mona responded with gritted teeth. Elena flicked her forehead, “You stupid, stupid child! What were you thinking? Someone offered you the opportunity to be an empress and you declined? Were you drunk?” “Why are you scolding me? You were the one who told me I could win back Styles,” Mona whined. Elena smacked her temple with a groan. When would the girl ever be smart? Of course, she said that, but that was only because she felt that Styles was doing this to make them grovel. From what they could see, it was obvious the Prince was really interested in the lowly maid. He had to go as far as ordering his guards to whip her daughter!This couldn't be

Ragi having dinner in his room when a knock came. He was reluctant to respond at first but reasoned that it might have been the young Emperor.“Come in.” He set his food and true to his suspicion, Styles walked in. “Your Majesty,” he bowed, ready to stand but Styles stopped him. “I see you are having a little feast. All by yourself, of course,” Styles teased. “You are always welcome to join me, Your Highness,” Ragi chuckled.“Exactly what I was hoping you'd say,” Styles snatched the bowl from him along with his chopsticks. “You haven't stopped this rowdy habit,” Ragi shook his head, grabbing another bowl from the set of dishes.Styles let out a small moan and Ragi hit his head with a chopstick.“Is this how you treat your emperor?” Styles frowned.“Is this how an Emperor is supposed to behave? Snatching bowls and moaning like a street urchin?” He retorted. “You haven't changed a bit. Just as mean and uptight as always,” Styles mumbled, returning to his dish. Ragi smiled fondly a
My Crippled Ex-Husband Is An Emperor Poisoned
“Why do you take this so lightly? It was an assassination attempt. They are not going to stop until you are ten feet under,” Ivory complained.Since the news about the poison arrow reached her, she had been terrified and unsettled. She didn't want her husband dying as a result of any power tussle. They were just newlyweds. She couldn't afford to lose him yet. Styles understood her plight but he didn't know how to explain to her that it was worth worrying about.He had everything under control and in no time, they would catch the intruder. “Honey, you need to calm down,” he pleaded but she didn't want to hear it. Nothing of what was happening was safe. It proved to be dangerous!“Nothing will happen to me, I promise,” he assured her.“How do you know that? Have you caught the assassin? Do you know if they have accomplices? Are you immune to poison? How exactly are you safe?” Ivory asked. It warmed his heart to see her so worried about him. Wrapping his arms around her, he assured h

“You already cast this spell on me. Am I supposed to stay awake forever, Darell?” Ivory was fed up. “Please calm down, your highness,” Darell said softly. “How many more of these temporary spells do I need? You already did the first one and it wore off in three days or less and now this?” Ivory exasperated.“We are trying to buy time to find a solution, Your Majesty. Please understand,” Darell explained calmly. She couldn't find it in her to get pissed at Ivory. She couldn't even imagine what the woman was going through now. “You know what, I'm done with this!” Ivory growled and stormed out of the room. “Where is she going? Somebody stop her!” Darell yelled but the glares that Ivory threw their way made them stand back. They resorted to informing the Emperor as he was the only one who could calm her down. Ivory got to the kitchen and matched to the cabinets where the knives were kept. The maids gasped as she grabbed the butcher knife. Darell rushed into the kitchen at that mom

Awake
Darell went to the execution ground with a couple of guards. Roy was still unconscious and it was perfect for her operation. She set her materials in place and started the ritual. Soon enough, she invaded Roy's mind but just before she could extract the information she was looking for, his eyes flew open and a cruel laugh escaped him.“What do you think you are doing?” He asked her. “Do you think I will keep such confidential information in my head?” “What did the Empress do to you?” Darell demanded.“Nothing,” he shrugged. “Was it the Emperor then?” She asked. “He doesn't need to do anything for me to punish him. I love the feeling of crushing the weak,” he laughed. Darell knew this man was a maniac.She knocked him back unconscious with an enchanted powder and began the ritual once again. Although he made it clear that the answers were not in his mind, she didn't want to relent. Even if she didn't get a direct answer, she was sure she would find a clue on how to stop it. She

The first hit had Daniel flying across the street. He let out a loud groan as his back connected with the tree. This wasn't the regular fight he was used to but he knew exactly what he was getting himself into when he challenged Roy.He forced himself up the ground and charged towards Roy but the man easily swung him to the side. “You know when you challenged me, I actually thought you had some insight on how to fight me spiritually,” he huffed, “but engaging you has proven to be a waste of time!”“Which is why you should take me on!” A feminine voice challenged from behind. Roy already recognized the voice as Darell's.He whipped his head around, surprised that she could get the chains off her. He'd always known there was something special about this woman and every single minute he spent with her proved that she was twice as powerful as he was.“I didn't expect you to be up so soon,” he said. “How long did you think I could stand the stench of your wife?” Darell retorted. “Wife?

The bracelet
Eisha didn't dare look back as she ran. Although she was afraid of what would happen to Daniel with her gone, she knew it was necessary to save the Empress before the monster she once considered a friend got to her. She didn't think that Daniel was equipped enough to hold him down for long and her legs were getting tired. On sighting a horse from a distance, she quickly flagged the horse and luckily it was a royal horse. “Who are you running?” The soldier asked. Eisha was about to respond when she suddenly realized that a single royal horse couldn't be out here in their market.It only meant one thing. Without responding, she dashed past him, running to catch a carriage to the palace. Her heart skipped when she heard the horse galloping behind her.“Hey, woman! Stop there!” He yelled. She quickly diverted into a narrow street and went through several houses, confident he wouldn't find her. By the time she was out on the street again, the rider was nowhere in sight. She flagged a

“You need to come with me to the palace now,” Daniel told Eisha. “Why? Is something wrong?” She asked. It was sudden to see him return at that this time of the day so she knew for sure that something was up. “Yes, very wrong. The Empress, something is happening to her and we don't know the cause of it,” he said. “What is wrong with the Empress?” Eisha asked. “Her nightmares are becoming reality. She has bite and claw marks all over her and it's becoming frightening. I have this feeling it might have something to do with Roy,” he said. Eisha frowned. She didn't exactly see the connection. As if he read her mind, he responded. “The attacks started immediately after the ceremony,” he explained.“I know Roy is into some shady business but I am not sure he has anything to do with the Empress' ailment,” Eisha argued. “Fine! Even if he's not responsible for it, let's inform the Emperor about his true identity.”“I don't know, Daniel. Is that really necessary…” Eisha drawled uneasily.

Corpse
Darell opened her eyes to an unfamiliar environment. The place was stuffy and smelled like it hadn't been cleaned in years. Her heightened senses could pick out the smell of a rotting corpse somewhere. She tried to sit up from the lying position only to discover that her body was chained to the bed. Her nose scrunched in irritation. “You're awake,” the gruff voice startled her. She didn't notice his presence in the room, until now. “That's good. I was hoping we could have a civil conversation.”“If you were going to abduct me, you should have at least picked somewhere with enough oxygen. I would the bare first than a room with a rotting corpse,” Darell said.Roy's eyes widen in shock. He thought the spell he used to give the room a homely smell was very effective since no one ever complained about it.How come she smelled it in just seconds of consciousness?“I don't know what you're talking about,” he denied. “You have a yard behind this place, don't you? Didn't it occur to you

Missing
Darell squinted her eyes, trying to get a glimpse of his true appearance but there was nothing for her to see. Everything was concealed by the mask on his face. “I don't want to kill you. Left to me, I wouldn't even be here but you are trying to interfere with something that is none of your business and I can't let that happen,” Roy said. “You mean the royal family? I'm afraid that is every bit my business as it is yours and I am going to stop you,” Darell said confidently. Darell pulled out a sword, surprising her. For someone with such an evil aura, she expected him to go fully spiritual on her. “A blade? I thought we were playing with magic. Except, you're not as powerful as you pretend to be,” she mocked. Roy didn't let her words get to him. The mountain already weakened him enough. Any attack he made on this woman had to be physical.She could head to head with him spiritually because of his weak state but her dainty form was no match for his physical strength.“You are not

“What do you think?” Ragi moved away from the Empress with a puzzled expression. “I must confess your highness, I have never seen anything like this. It is strange to me,” Ragi said.Ivory’s shoulder sagged hopelessly. She was expecting that response. Even in her kingdom, there had never been a record of anything like it. “So what do we do now? We have less than ten hours to figure this out, Ragi. I don't want my wife going to bed and waking up with more injuries. We need to do something about this,” Styles said. “I'm sorry, your Majesty but I really don't understand what we can do in this situation. It is a new ailment and it is quite scary,” Ragi sighed.Ivory stood, begging to be excused. She couldn't take it anymore. The images in her head was scary enough, she didn't need a reconfirmation.Styles wanted to go after her but Ragi stopped him.“Maybe Darell can help,” he suggested.“Right, Darell! Why didn't we think about that earlier? Get her here as soon as possible. I'll go

Ivory sat in her chelanvers, staring at the clock. She was afraid to sleep. She didn't want a repeat of what happened the last time.A part of her was still trying to convince her that it was all in her head. That she probably for the scratches from thrashing. But the injuries were too deep to have been her nails and the doctor confirmed it too.Styles walked into the room and this time, she was well aware of his presence. “My love,” she smiled. “Why are you still awake? It's pretty late,” he asked then glanced at the baby's cot, “was she giving you trouble?”“A little but I'm glad she's asleep now. I didn't expect you to come in so soon,” she said. Of a truth, she didn't expect him to come to her chambers at all. She was afraid he would easily notice the marks. Although she was fully clothed, she could feel the lust as his eyes roamed her body. “You're a bit overdressed, don't you think?” He spoke up and she bit her lip. “I was catching a cold,” she lied. “Are you feverish?” H
