"Some people don't want me ruling" Zed said and she frowned.
"Why?" She asked.
"I also wonder" he replied and as they walked Zed caught sight of Alvara walking in the corridor.
"Skye go to your room I'll join you soon" he said and she nodded.
"What are you doing here?" Zed asked Alvara who was coming to stand infront of him.
"I did your job for you" Alvara smiled.
"What job?" Zed asked and she held up a bottle.
"You have some very unloyal servants" she smiled and his eyes narrowed.
"What is that?" He asked.
"The poison fed to the princess to kill your child" Alvara said and Zed's jaw clenched.
"Where is the servant?" He asked.
"Unfortunately you've already killed her she was one of the servants you killed that day she worked in the kitchen so it was easy for her to mix the poison" Alvara explained.
"She's lucky" Zed's eyes turned a deeper shade of red and Alvara took a step back.
"She was sent" Alvara replied and Zed turned to look at her.
"She was sent by Audrey the maid was sick and was going to die soon Audrey promised to make her a living dead in return for her to mix the poison" Alvara explained and the veins on Zed's body started twitching.
"She wanted to be the one to birth my heir" Zed said through gritted teeth. He had suspected Audrey but he didn't believe she would.
"Indeed be careful with her though" Alvara smiled then dissapeared.
Skye was walking away when she saw Beatrice.
"Lady Skye!" Beatrice rushed to her.
"Lady Beatrice how are you, how is Pharian?" Skye asked.
"We are both okay though I'm worried he already left to work with Zed this morning though he is recovering" Beatrice said and Skye smiled.
"He is never idle".
"Mhmm I heard about your child I'm sorry" Beatrice sympathized and Skye forced a small smile.
"It is fine" she replied.
"Does that mean that you and the Prince are going to try again?" Beatrice asked and Skye's cheeks became warm and red.
"I don't think so it's better if Audrey gives birth to children for him" Skye looked down.
"Why is that?" Beatrice asked.
"Isn't it better for him?" Skye sighed and Beatrice touched her shoulder.
"It might not be, besides Shawn and I are moving to Aristocra but you are free to visit anytime especially if you feel suffocated" Beatrice smiled and Skye returned it.
"Maybe you could teach me to shoot arrows?" Skye asked with a smile.
"Gladly" Beatrice smiled and the two ladies hugged.
By noon maids trooped in Skye's room packing her things.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"The Prince asked us to move your things to his room" a maid replied and Skye nodded and smiled a little.
She thought he would be angry with her for loosing losing the child.
What about Audrey?
After her things had been moved Skye went to Zed's room who was sitting on the bed waiting for her.
"What took you so much time?" He asked standing up.
"Nothing"she replied softly and he walked over to her she took a step back and his eyes slightly narrowed.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Where is Audrey?" Skye asked and he looked away for a moment.
"You won't be seeing Audrey again" Zed said and she looked at him confused.
"Why?" She asked.
"I only married her to get you angry" he smiled and to stop Erik from instigating the people of the underworld against him.
"That does not mean you should push her away" Skye frowned.
"But I don't want her I only need you" Zed said his fingers coming to her chin and she flushed.
"Where is she?" She asked.
"A better place" he smiled.
When in truth....
'Zed' Audrey gasped and smiled seeing that the door was opened she was starving and the room had some type of barrier so that she couldn't use her powers.
Without wasting time Zed appeared in front of her his eyes red.
'How is Skye doing I hope she is fine' Audrey asked irking him more.
Without wasting time Zed plunged his claws into her stomach and Audrey cried out in pain.
'Zed!' She tried to push his hand but she didn't have strength and she had not eaten for days.
'You wanted to birth my heir so much that you killed the child in Skye's womb almost killing her!' Zed said with gritted teeth while Audrey shook her head continuosly.
'Don't lie to me!' He yelled his voice like a hundred voices and Audrey shook in fear.
'Please Zed don't kill me' she pleaded. She knew once she died she would cease to exist.
