MEILIN’S REBORN (Battle Of The Heart And Throne)

The sword finally met with Gianna’s neck and…

“Nooooooooo!!!!” Den shouted running from afar, he jumped over ten guards and snatched the bow and arrow from one before stretching it as he aimed it at the guard that was about chopping Gianna’s head off.

The arrow flew straight to the man’s hand and pierced through it which made the guard drop the sword immediately.

“Ahhhhhh” the guard cried as he held his bleeding arm while everyone began murmuring.

The king and queen along with the chiefs and elders that were present stood up and were surprised to see Den standing there.

“What are you doing, Den?” The king asked but Den didn’t reply, his eyes were on Gianna who had blood dripping and sliding down her neck.

“I asked a question, Den!?” The king demanded but Den rushed to the front of the room.

He squatted in front of her and held her shoulders.

“Anna” his lips trembled when he saw the huge cut on Gianna’s neck.

“I’m sorry I came late” he muttered and opened the little head cage then freed her immediately.

“Anna” he cupped her cheeks but she kept staring at him with red eyes before passing out.

“Anna!!” He yelled out

People were already looking at themselves and murmuring about what was going on, the king also looked surprised when he saw the girl’s face, he looked at the queen and she shook her head.

“Den what are you doing?” The king asked again and Den looked up at him.

He carefully laid Gianna on the floor before going on his knees.

The queen’s eyes widened and a slow smile appeared on Ling’s face.

“Father, I’ve never pleaded for anything before, I’ve never begged you for anything and I’ve never pleaded in the place of anyone before but I’m pleading with you right now, I’m pleading on her behalf dad, please let’s spare her life” he pleaded.

Sapphire clenched the hem of her dress tight as she stared at him, tears almost came out of her eyes.

How can her husband be pleading on the behalf of another woman, why was he embarrassing her this way?

“Please father consider my pleading” he bowed.

Fen came forward.

“Your majesty please consider his highness” he bowed too.

Boi looked at him and followed behind.

“Yes your majesty, please consider his highness pleadings” he bowed too.

Ling came forward and bowed too.

“Father consider brother’s pleading I beg of you” she pleaded.

Then the other guards, maids, generals, ministers and chiefs followed.

“Please your majesty, consider the angel of light” they pleaded.

Sapphire couldn’t almost believe her eyes, she got even more surprised when the queen faced the King and held his hands.

“Your majesty, let’s spare her” she pleaded too.

The king let out a sigh and moved forward.

“You may all rise” he ordered.

“Father are you going to consider?” Ling asked and he nodded.

“Really thank you Father” she smiled and bowed again.

“Thank you your majesty” the others thanked him and Den stood up.

He carried Gianna in his arms and faced the King.

“Thank you Father” he bowed.

“Just go get her treated and come to my study later, we have a lot of things to talk about” he replied and left.

The queen left too and other guards followed them from behind.

“Brother” Ling came to stand by him and Sapphire walked out with Gina angrily.

“Fen, Boi, tell everyone to leave” Den ordered as he left with Gianna.

Fen and Boi went to do as told.

“Come on you heard his highness, you can leave now” they said to the guards and the maids that were present and they began leaving.

Ling moved to stand beside Fen and Boi.

“Do you think brother hates me, he didn’t even look at me?” She asked sadly.

“Nonsense! Princess his highness does not hate you, he’s just so worried about Gianna ” Fen chuckled and Boy nodded.

“I hope so,” she sighed.

“Right, where is your sister?” Boi asked.

“She ran away because she felt guilty,” she replied.

“Oh, let’s go out from where, your brother said that everyone should leave this place, come on let’s go” Boi said and Ling nodded then left with him.

Fen sighed followed them behind.

Shine sat on the big rock outside the Jade palace as she kept crying loudly.

She was sitting at the front of a river and crying loudly. It was 11:30 already and she was sure that Gianna must have been beheaded already.

“It’s official, brother will hate me which means I won’t be his hero anymore” she cried even louder.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Behind her there was a carriage that was moving slowly, inside the carriage a handsome young guy could be seen sitting there and sleeping.

He was blessed with a smooth face, long hair, pointed nose, thin lips, thick lashes as they hugged themselves but his peaceful sleep was Interrupted when the loud cries of a girl woke him up.

“Geez” he breathed and looked at his personal bodyguard that was riding the carriage.

“Stop the carriage” he ordered.

His bodyguard nodded and stopped the carriage then he opened the small window to see a petite girl, sitting and backing him.

Her back was shaking lightly and he could tell that she was the one crying.

“Who’s she?” He thought with creased brows before opening his carriage and stepping down.

“Hey your highness where are you going?” Alix, his body guard asked but he didn’t reply.

Instead he walked closer to the girl and began rounding her but she didn’t pay him any attention.

She continued crying.

He creased his brows before moving to sit at the front of her, he began staring at her face but she still didn’t pay attention to him.

Alix who was sitting on the horse back crossed his arms and sighed.

“Highness we are getting late” he called out but the boy ignored him, he kept staring at Shine who ignored him as she cried loudly.

Then a thought entered his mind and he began crying along with her, imitating the exact way she was doing.

Shine still ignored him and continued to cry, she cried even louder and he followed her too.

“Brother is going to hate me!!!” She cried out.

“Brother is going to hate me!!” He copied her and Alix chuckled.

Shine let out a loud wail and he did then she stopped and looked up at him.

“What is wrong with you!?” She yelled angrily.

“Hey look, you’ve finally stopped crying” he smiled and she sniffed then wiped her tears.

“Why were you crying?” He asked and she glared at him.

“Why do you care?” She asked back.

“Because you were disturbing my sleep, did you know that I’ve been on the road since yesterday night? I didn’t have any sleep because of the cold and now that I finally want to sleep, you woke me up” he replied.

Shine stood up and stuck her tongue out at him before swinging her arms and leaving.

“Hey, you didn’t tell me your name?” He yelled but she was already gone.

“Come on your highness we are running late” Alix called out and the guy decided to go back to the carriage.

DEMON KINGDOM**

Nevaeh let out a low grunt as tossed around the bed a bit before opening her eyes.

Last night it felt like she slept really comfortably, the bed looked soft and cold and waited…

She looked around only to find herself in a different and familiar room, by familiar room she means that this is Draco’s room but why was she here?

Just when she thought that her memories began coming back, last night she had planned to poison him, she went to her peacock palace in the afternoon to collect a medicine that’ll make a person feel pain but turns out that the medicine..

Her eyes widened and she immediately removed the dark blanket from her body, her eyes widened and she almost screamed.

She was dressed in her undergarment, she really couldn’t remember what happened last night but what she knew was that she was feeling really hot and Draco was there then he carried her to the bed and she kissed him.. NO WAY!!!

Just as she was thinking about what happened, the bathroom door opened and Draco stepped out in his dark silky undergamette, combing his long hair as he acted like he didn’t see her while going to sit on the free chair in his room.

Nevaeh seethed her teeth as she looked at him, there was no way she was going to let this slide.

“What did you do to me last night?” She asked and he only just looked at her before facing his front, still brushing his hair.

Moment passed and he kept ignoring her like what the hell this! Nevaeh was already losing her patience.

“I asked a question, what did you do to me last night!” She gritted her teeth as she spoke more harder.

Draco didn’t still have any plans to answer her until the door opened and some group of maids stepped in with a new thick dark and long rope.

“Lord Draco, your clothes have arrived” they bowed and he stood up.

Nevaeh looked at him with an unbelievable look in her eyes as he watched him stood up and the maids began helping him get dressed while he kept ignoring her.

Once they were done, they bowed and left and he began leaving too.

“Draco!!” Nevaeh yelled out his name without respect, making him pause on his movement but he still didn’t look at her.

“You will regret saving me last night!!” She yelled out, tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

Draco only just glanced at her through his shoulders for like three seconds before leaving the room.

The moment he left, Nevaeh released her painful tears. She took the pillow that was on the bed and threw it at the door.

“Just wait and see how I will kill you one day you bastard!!” She yelled painfully and shut her eyes tight as more tears rolled out.

JADE HEAVENS**

Gianna was still sleeping on Den’s bed while he sat on the small stool beside her then took her hand.

“Anna I’m damn sorry, I almost got you killed, if I haven’t gotten carried away in my dreams then you would have never had a single scratch in your body, I’m sorry” he said in a broken voice then kissed her fragile hand.

Ling crossed her arms as she watched him from behind, she let out a sigh and just then Shine rushed in.

“Brother” she rushed towards Den and hugged him tight.

“I’m sorry I’m sorry, I almost killed her and I won’t let you go till you say that you’ve forgiven me” she cried.

Earlier, she got to the palace in a heavy heart thinking that the execution must have been done and Den must be crying his eyes out by now and just the thought of that alone almost made her run mad of guilt.

Den sighed and patted her back slowly.

“That’s enough,” he said.

“No I deserved to be punished, I didn’t know that she was the girl you love yet I almost made father hurt her, I won’t forgive myself if she doesn’t wake up” she cried.

“She will wake up, if you don’t stop crying then I’ll get mad at you” he replied in a firm tone that made Shine wipe off her tears immediately.

“Don’t get mad at me brother, I’m not crying anymore” she said, still wiping her tears off.

Den let out a low and dry smile before hugging her to himself.

“Big brother loves you” he said softly then kissed her hair.

Ling was already scoffing with a jealous expression on her face and Den called her to come join in.

“I love both of you” he smiled and they hugged him tightly.

Fen who was watching them let out a smile and looked at Boi who was smiling too.

“His highness’s sister loves his Highness so much” Fen said and Boi nodded in agreement.

SAPPHIRE’S ROOM**

She kept trashing everything to see in order to vent her anger.

Just how dare he?

How dare he help another woman right in front of her, isn’t she his wife!?

“Your highness please calm down” Gina kept trying to plead with her but she was not ready to listen yet.

“Gina aren’t I pretty enough?, The gods chose him for me so why is he chasing after that st*pid girl!?” She barked.

“Princess”.. Gina moved closer to her and held her shoulder.

“As long as the gods choose Den to marry you then he is for you so there’s no need for you to worry about that girl, he is yours” she said.

Sapphire who was about to push her hands off and take another object to throw paused and looked at her.

“You’re right Gina, I’m his wife and the gods chose me to marry him so whether he likes it or not, he is forever stuck with me” she smiled.
