Here's your update!

" He's not my father" Kartik whispered, I looked at him with confusion, as he was dragged by the guards.

I was scared, for my future, Kartik's future, King's death, what the hell was happening?

" Take her to the cells" a senior guard shouted orders, and I was dragged to the prison cell, I didn't even struggle as they took me there, I was drained with all the happenings. Kartik really have to do something.

Another Day

I was sitting against the wall, huddled up like a cocoon to escape the cold, I'm a human so it's not easy to survive this cold, though the magic carvings on my body were helping me but not to that extent.

" Open up, NOW!" someone shouted from outside my cell

I heard the turning of the key and some footsteps coming towards me, but I didn't bother looking up.

" Naira" no sooner those words escaped his words, I turned around and hugged him

" You're freezing cold, let's get you out of here" he said and picked me up in bridal style and walked out of the cell.

" Bring me the senior guard who put the future Queen in the prison cell" he said sternly to the guard standing outside my cell.

" What happened?" I asked him

" The King was dead, much before we knew" he said keeping a blank face

" So who was that then?" I asked

" An imposter, created by magic, to cover up the tracks" he was saying, as if he was himself trying to believe it

" I'm going to be crowned tomorrow" he said as he laid me down on the bed

" What about me??" I asked

" You'll marry me, I'll fight, you go back wherever you were from" he said blankly and then went out without saying another word

That was so unlike him.
