Everyone said 'Follow your heart' but when my heart is in trillion pieces, which piece do I follow?

His sword didn't miss the neck of his opponent, and next second his own half brother fall on ground with his head far away from his body, No body has seen something this cruel in their history, and no one was expecting this cruel act from King Shivay, not even his own brother who have committed the sin, the man is known for his kindness and love towards people, towards his own people, He is cruel and merciless but with them who do wrong to him or his people.

The court room was filled with people who were close to King Shivay, and King Shivay was sitting on his throne, his eyes were red due to anger and pain but fixate on his wife who was also a culprit.

"Were You involve in hurting that pregnant woman Aasha?" His loud voice with full authority boomed in court chamber, The Queen had her head bent down in shame, although it was she who have provoked King Shivay's brother but no one had any idea about it.

"No, Your Majesty" the Queen shakes  her head denying the allegations and also lying straight on everyone's face.

"But the man here has to say otherwise" King Shivay gritted his teeth angrily and pointed towards the man who was shaking in fear, although he had seen Queen Aasha fuelling Prince against the woman and even he had witnessed how Prince was trying to force himself on the lady but he didn't dare to say it aloud due to fear.

"What did you see?" King Shivay asked and

"Noth.. Nothing" the man lied, and it sky rocketed King Shivay's anger, he had enough of everyone's game.

"You mean, You have lied to me right outside this court room" He stepped down from his throne angrily and stood right at front of the man, making him cower away in fear.

"No Your Majesty, I did not" The man fall straight on his knees and joined both of his hands together "I don't know if that's even a crime or not, Your Highness and that lady had some argument and also Your Highness witnessed Prince dragging her out of the chamber, I did too and hence I went out of my way and send the guard to report it to you" The man confessed with his eyes grounded on floor.

"And What was you supposed to do at that time Aasha?" demanded King Shivay angrily, till now the Queen was completely humiliated and teary eyes at front of every single person in courtroom.

"Whip Queen Aasha till the moment she is conscious" He ordered, A crime is crime no matter how much powerful the culprit is, and every culprit need to get punished for his crime just so he think thousand times and more before committing another one.

"I asked a Question Ahilya" It all felt like the history being repeated, Queen Shivay was not angry but furious, It took every ounce of control in him to not teach his own wife a much needed lesson "Why you did that?" He emphasized each word and glared the lady right at front of him.

"I have told you ten times before too Your Majesty, I thought Your Mistress had stabbed you and I did what I thought was right at that moment" Queen Aahilya responded with an attitude which make the King more and more furious, but It wasn't her attitude which bothered him, it was the word she had used for Anika.
