The Dark King and his Queen Pearl

Prologue

"King, we are short of time. It is either your heir or her. But if we save her, she won't be able to become a mother again. And you are also aware of the fact that killing the child of royal blood has serious consequences." Healer Filemon informed the king and others. Today his eyes and face lacked the respect he always had for the king. His attitude was obedient yet dejected.

"What!" Cherry started to sob by covering her mouth. "It was her only dream. She wanted to be a mother." She cried out.

If only he tried to know what was her only dream. For him, her only dream was to kill him and conquer his reign and throne. He was only aware that she wanted her one dream to be fulfilled so desperately.

Once the heir dies, she won't be able to hold another child of her. Death would be a better option for her because if she survived without a child, she would die later in sorrow and agony.

Were they ready for the funeral of her?

Princess Aneka and Prince Aniketos were standing in guilt as well, along with Deniz.

"The black magic, done on her, had already weakened her, and now this attack." Healer Filemon said in slight disgust to the King.

Aneka was drowned in more guilt because she was the one to spread that misunderstanding. They won't have to see that day, only if she had talked with Queen Pearl on that day.

Only if

"What would we answer to her mother and Human Kingdom?" Deniz spoke for the first time. She failed herself as a mother here. She was part of that hatred scheme as well.

"Asher, please make a wise decision." Aniketos pleaded. He was attached to the Queen. But when hard times came, he also hated her equally and supported the ugly things planned against her.

But the main decision was supposed to be made by the King.

King Asher.

A misunderstanding of a few weeks ago brought them to this stage. Was his hatred still in his heart? He stopped considering her human long ago. She was cheaper than an animal for her. He used to refer to her as a thing or "it".

The images of memories he spent with her began to flash in front of his eyes. He wanted to kill her. Now every card was in his favor, then what was stopping him?

Nobody would ask why he preferred his heir over the queen. Because the history was full of such incidents.

But she would be the first who would die without knowing that she was pregnant.

Everyone's heart was beating terribly in their chests. Finally, he announced his decision, making everyone gasped.

"Kill....it. Kill..he.."

And he ruined the prophecy that was bound to happen and save the planet and innocent lives living on it. The world was going to be deprived of its savior. But no one was aware of that.
