Nova's POV
"Killed her?!" Jezebel screeches
"Shush!" I say as I fit into my dress
I think back to the days I sworn to wear only whites, now with a change of my heart and soul I have sworn to wear only black.

(Nova's Dress)
"Why?" Jezebel asks while interrupting my self talk
"Because she was loved by the man that I loved, I couldn't bear seeing her alive" I say
"Nova!" Jezebel cries
"Now don't be a cry baby, A Queen ought to do what she feels is right" I say as I adjust my golden crown
"And trust me, I know what is right" I say as I squeeze her arm
"Have you thought long about it? Long enough to know what you will win or lose?" Jezebel calms down and ask
"Yes" I reply as I stare into her eyes, "What I gain is my power and what I'll lose is my sanity"
"I trust you Nova, you are my Queen and I am on your side" Jezebel smiles
"Then you are on the right side" I smile back
"Your Majesty, your armour that you ordered to be prepared, is ready" Kitty enters the room
"Wonderful!" I exclaim, "I shall try it on when I return"
"Return from where?" Jezebel interrupts
"I am going to see Ivar" I say as I walk out and Jezebel follows me
"IVAR?" Jezebel screams
"Yes, I promised him that I will bring Alfie to him in three days time, it's the third day" I say as I walk towards the stables
"Kitty, bring Alfie" I command
As I rub the neck of my horse Ella
"Ivar is your enemy, if you side with Alfred" Jezebel says
"Ivar is my husband and the father of my child, nothing in the world can stop me from seeing him" I say sternly
"Where are you going?" Alfred appears as he examines me and Ella curiously
"I am taking Alfie to see his father" I say
"I forbid you to see him" Alfred says
"And I forbid you to forbid me Alfred" I reply
"He is my child's father and no war can hamper my effort to see him when I have given him my word about it" I say as Jezebel sighs
"Is it his side that you are on?!" Alfred erupts
"I have not taken any-side but Alfred you haven't given me any promise of marriage!" I exclaim
"Momie! ar wie goin to sea dadie?" Alfie jumps in my arms
