Chapter 27
King Levi
I'm so tired; that meeting took too long; at least now I'll be able to go see my dear queen Courtney. I'm pleased to finally see that she's getting along here and getting used to being with me.
But I'm not as stupid as she thinks I am; I have a feeling that she's planning something or wants something because there's no way that suddenly, she will listen to me.
She even does what I tell her to; come on, she even agrees with everything I say, even if I don't agree with everything I say or think. As Levi got to Courtney's room, he decided to go in instead of knocking like he usually does; when he got in, he was surprised he didn't see Courtney inside.
"Courtney? Courtney? Where are you?" he went to find Lucas; he was one of the guards who helped him kidnap Kathleen and planned everything.
"Lucas, have you seen my brother? Or Courtney?" asked Levi.
"I haven't seen your brother, Tobias; on the other hand, your wife Courtney, I saw her heading to the stables; I can go check with you if you want, your highness." Said Lucas.
"Thank you." Said Levi as they headed towards the stables.
They both went to the stables and started looking for Courtney; Levi suddenly realized that one of the horses was missing.
"Lucas, what happened here? One of the horses is missing. Did someone take a horse? Did my wife tell anybody where she was going or if she was going somewhere?!" said Levi; he was getting impatient, not knowing where his wife was. "
No, sir, no one has said anything, but I'll have search parties looking for her." Levi suddenly realized something; he quickly raced out of the stables and headed to the dungeon. He went to where Kathleen's cell was, but when he got there, all he found was an abandoned cell; this got Levi furious.
"Lucas?!" he screamed.
"Yes, your highness?" asked Lucas, worried.
"What happened to Kathleen?! To find my brother!" He asked as he started to realize what was going on. "It all makes sense now!" he exclaimed.
"Have you found my brother yet?!" Said Levi, he was getting impatient.
"No, your highness, but we have everyone looking for them." Said Lucas.
"Start looking for my wife as well!" He exclaimed as he punched the wall when he realized what had happened.
"NO!" he exclaimed in realization. "It was my brother Tobias; he probably took my wife, Courtney, with him and his sister Kathleen! He helped them escape; they probably went back to Glidonia?" he angrily exclaimed.
"Lucas! Get the troops ready; where going to attack Glidonia real soon!" he exclaimed as Lucas nodded and did as he was told.
Queen Delia
As time passed, it kept getting closer and closer for Delia to talk to Blair's husband, king Brayan; Delia was with her sister Blair in the studies room, where she and her husband always had business here.
"How do you feel, Blair? You're so close to having this little guy here?" said Delia as she rubbed Blair's tummy.
"Well, first, I'm really excited to be having a baby. I can't wait for this little guy or girl to be here soon; it's all I've been thinking about for weeks." Said Blair with a smile on her face.
Delia hoped that she and her husband would soon have kids; Ashlyn already did; Blair was about to have her first, even her little sister Genevieve. She and Derek had only been married for three years, and they were already going to be parents; and Ashlyn, after one year of marriage, got pregnant that same month.
Sometimes she wondered if there was something wrong with her. Why couldn't she have children?
"What are you thinking about Delia?" asked Blair as Delia shrugged it off.
"Nothing important, Blair." She added.
"Don't worry, Delia, you'll become a mother; I promise your day will come soon." Said Blair, Delia was about to say something she was cut off by an opening door; it revealed to see king Brayan.
"Queen Delia, what a surprise. I didn't know you were coming; how are you?" said king Brayan as he embraced his sister-in-law for a hug.
"Well, I've been a good just doing the normal work, and I wanted to come to see my sister since she's about to give birth any day. I decided to come and be with her until that day passes, but I also have another proposition for you that can wait a bit longer. How's the soon-to-be father?" asked Delia.
"I'm actually nervous but happy; I'm thrilled that you came this way. I feel a bit calmer to know that you're here because now she at least has you here." He said.
"Well then, I'll be sure to do my job here then," said Delia with a smirk on her face while playing with her sister's hair.
"Brayan, I- I came here to talk with you and my sister too, as you too may know Glidonia is in danger, not only once but twice one by the war they had two weeks ago, the second one is king Levi." Said Delia as Brayan frowned.
"King Levi? Isn't he your brother-in-law?" asked Brayan, a bit confused.
"Yes, but only for the title because he's a terrible husband and ruler; he was the one who sent the attack on Glidonia, I'm sure of it. I came to ask you both for support on Glidonia; my husband and I already agreed to help, but…. If you help us, I know we can win the battle." Said Delia as Brayan stood there with a surprised look on his face.
"I would love to help, but I'm not sure?" he said.
"Please do it for me, Brayan, for our baby; think of Genevieve and Derek they are expecting too. Genevieve is probably almost going into her three months or done; we need to help them. If we were in trouble, I know that Genevieve and Derek would help us too; even Delia will help; we will only give part of the help, please, Brayan." Said Blair.
"I-I all right, Blair, we are in Delia." Said Brayan as he hugged his wife.
Delia was so happy that she had completed the mission she was sent to do; now, she had to wait for Blair to have her baby; for now, she would send a letter to her husband.
"Thank you so much, king Brayan and you too, Blair; if you guys excuse me, I must go write a letter to my husband to tell him to plan the soldiers." As Delia reached her bedroom, she had a strange feeling that something was wrong back in her kingdom with her husband Edmond; she wrote a letter to her husband.
Saying that king Brayan had agreed to what she and her husband talked about and wondered if everything was all right in their home.
