Dead melody (Harry Styles/Jai Brooks)

Chapter 41

Eva's POV

A lot can happen in 5 days.

A woman gives birth, a man is sent to hang, a war is commending and you have a shamed name.

When I got back I was sent straight to a separate bed room from the one I shared with Harry which I wasn't complaining about. Apparently they wanted to just leave me on bed rest just a few more days and anyway Harry would be too distracted with this new war he's enforced that even if I did share a room with him I wouldn't see him.

Because of Harry commencing innocent blood to be shed for no apparent reason other thank he own pleasure it hasn't made him the most popular guy. And me being the woman who share his last name I too look bad. Especially since I didn't no anything, but I couldn't have. Harry wouldn't speak of it and it was when I....when I had to get medical attention.
Plus for losing the child, I also looked like a villain. It was my job to provide him with children and after this mishap I can't imagine I look good at all.

I also heard from Mary that Lily gave birth 2 days ago.

She had an easy birth, it only lasted a few hours and out popped a big healthy boy. She and the baby are doing wonderfully.

I didn't have an reaction to this. Sometimes you just can't react. You don't want to react. Because reacting means you've accepted it and I'm not sure I can accept this.

I didn't want to see them, Lily or the baby or Jai.

I was suppose to bring the first child, I was suppose to provide a boy to be next in line yet all I did was ruin the generals coat.

The General. Daveed. He had helped me so much and I wanted to thank him properly.

I was in the room currently, I was stood with my hand on the door debating wether or not to go out or not.

I reached my hand out but I was soon forced backwards when the door opened for me.

A large man came in and grabbed me

"Orders of the king" he said in a stern voice and i instantly began to panic. What if he's going to execute me, he can do that. HES KING

I didn't scream or cry or fight I just followed him. I knew too well not to try and fight him.

I was taken to the entrance. I could hear people outside all shouting and I felt as though my heart was going to explode.

"And now everyone the queen" I heard the gastly voice of Harry as the door was opened and I was pushed out.

Instantly I was struck wit a crowd of people outside. I was confused. I couldn't imagine Harry ever allowing this so something must be going on. A speech on the war or-

I saw what.

And I threw up.

On a wooden podium was Daveed. He looked beat up and I instantly knew why.

"HARRY NO" I screamed without thinking, I didn't care about consequences or anything. I wasn't allowing this man to be executed infront of a crowd without honor when he is innocent.

I was grabbed and pulled back and held in place.

Tears streamed as I tried to wiggle my way free but what good would they do. I wouldn't be able to stop the stool from being kicked

I turned my head to the crowd. A lot were booing and I could tell it was aimed at Harry. I'm sure they knew Daveed was a great guy and they knew Harry was an arse. And they knew they wouldn't stop him. Hurtful words don't stop a man who carves them into flesh.

"This man assaulted me-" Harry started

"HE DID IT BECAUSE YOU ASSAULTED ME" I screamed. Again I didn't care if I'd end up hanging next, I owed Daveed more than to let him die like this

"Slap her for Me" Harry said without even a glance. I heard shocked voices from the crowd as I felt a harsh pain run across my face. I didn't care though. The burning just fed to the raging fire within me

"See, HE IS ABUSING HIS POWER AS KING. THIS MAN HELPED ME WHEN I WAS DYING, HE STOPPED EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE TO GET ME TO SAFTY AND HE DIDN'T LEAVE MY SIDE. THIS MAN ON THE OTHER HAND" I yelled refuting to Harry "ATTACKED RIGHT AFTER I HAD COME AROUND FROM AN EVENT WHICH HE DIDN'T EVEN CHECK UP ON ME FROM. ALSO YOU SEE THESE-" I was about to show my bruisers when I was slapped harshly across the face again and everything went black.
