"How much does she remember? Damn it, she's the only one who knows where the key is. How can I bring her memories back?" Orig yelled at the doctor, who was examining Taya's body, ignoring his presence.
"Your Highness, your shouting is scaring her. Why don't you wait outside while I examine her? This is for Princess Taya's benefit," the doctor's tone was sharp this time, as if she were ordering him out. Orig bit his lip, glanced at her before leaving the room, noting the look in her eyes—a gaze that told him he was a terrifying monster.
Orig had never seen such a look in Taya's eyes before. He took a deep breath and left the room, heading somewhere else to think quietly. 'All I wanted was to make her carry my child, so she'd never leave the palace. And now what? She's lost her memory, damn it.'
Orig glanced at where his stepmother stood, looking concerned.
"Could it be that I overdid it? No, she brought it on herself. Will she be alright with me?"
