The next morning Zed woke up beside Audrey and left the room the first thing he did was check on Skye who was still asleep before he left the place.

"My lord" a servant rushed up to him falling on his knees and pulling out a letter holding it in front of him.

"What is this?" Zed asked in a bored tone.

"A letter. It just came in some minutes ago sire" The man servant replied and Zed picked the letter waving his hands for the man to go.

Zed read the letter which was from lord iczzy.it was a warning that there were only ten days out of the thirty days left before the war.

Zed has thoroughly thought of a plan as to not let the tribes succeed in their mission but the tribes didn't feel threatened but confident was there someone behind the scenes?.

"What are you reading?"He heard Pharian's voice his expression remained the same but his eyes dilated at the sound of the voice and he turned around.

"I see you finally decided to stop sleeping" Zed mocked.

"Yes I am alive" Pharian smiled at him his hands glancing at the paper in Zed's hands.

"Lord Icczy, we don't have time" Zed said handing the letter to pharian.

"I came to inform you that Beatrice and I are moving to Aristocra" Pharian said.

"Finally but I must warn you Aristocra is standing with kristanlia during this war" Zed said and Pharian smiled.

"Always" he replied befire walking away from his brother.

Skye woke up and a maid walked in.

"Good morning my lady your breakfast is ready the Prince asked us to serve you in bed as not to stress you" the maid said bowing.

"Thank you, you may leave"Skye said and the maid smiled at the words used by the princess before walking away.

Skye was indeed hungry though she had not had an appetite for a while she felt hungry now and needed to eat she began to eat the food without waiting and soon she has cleared her plate.

She rested her back waiting for the food to digest then she felt a funny feeling in her stomach and the taste of metallic blood soon after before she vomited on the ground.

"Good morning sweet wife" Zed greeted smiling as he walked inside the maid he sent had informed him that she was awake.

But he found her pale, squinting her eyes and holding her stomach his eyes turned red and immediately he appeared at her side and she vomited blood again.

"Skye!" Zed looked frantic as he held her and she fell into his hands.

"Zed" she cried.

"It hurts it's painful" she cried in a whisper of a voice and Zed felt his nerves twitching.

He dissapeared for a second and the next he appeared with Grethel in the room.

Grethel was a demon physician who had just been walking near his room when his king pulled him and he appeared in the land of the living with a shocked look.

"As long as I am touching you, you will not be forced back to the underworld"Zed replied.

"What does the king need me for?"the man asked noticing Zed's unwavering anger.

"My wife something is wrong with her'Zed replied and Grethel's eyes turned to look at the woman who looked pale and had vomited blood.

Zed didn't waste anytime in bringing the demon physician for fear of the human one taking time and will still not be able to come up with a solution and as such the demon physician was more reliable.

Grethel held her hand and then his hands moved to her head then stomach and he shut his eyes.

"She is with child?" Grethel asked.

"The lady is dying" Grethel said as his hand has touched Skye she fell unconscious. Grethel felt the temperature in the room change at his words and he could literally feel the anger emanating from his king which made him gulp in fear as he didn't know how to deliver the next information for fear of his soul.

"Can she be saved?" Zed asked the tone and deepness of his voice making Grethel shudder.

"Yes my Lord she can if treated on time" Grethel replied.

"Then treat her" Zed replied.

"Of course my Lord but..." Grethel stopped himself.

"But what?" Zed's hand which was on Grethel's shoulder to keep him in the land of the living tightened and Grethel could feel his bones at the mercy of his king.

"The child is gone" Grethel said solemnly.
