Akila,
"You can't be stubborn about this Akila. If you have any issues with the king, you can deal with them later."
Heba said, exasperated, as she watched her sister still sitting watching her reflection in the mirror.
Akila looked at herself, not seeing anything. Suddenly, she had the feeling of emptiness.
As if her life has no purpose and what she doing at the moment was meaningless.
Now that her husband had broken her heart and after witnessing how cruel the royal palace could be, she wanted to flee.
And that wasn't the only reason. There were two ruby eyes haunting her dreams.
A male broken but loving voice was calling her in her sleep and more than once she woke up calling a name she couldn't remember.
The young queen has been living this empty, soulless cycle. The pain that was like a clench festered into agony.
