Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 75: Informed

After agreeing to hear what Nessa had to say, the girl sat down on a couch before the princess took a deep breath before exhaling deeply.

"I'll start by telling you that your father's life is in grave danger; he was poisoned using magic, which is what caused him to fall ill, and this happened right after you and your brother left when your cousin came to stay with him," Nessa said, as the girl stared at her.

"Poisoned? "Who did it?" Nessa sighed when she asked.

"After your father became ill, he allowed your cousin to take care of the kingdom, and that's when everything began to change and make sense, he and his father are the ones who want to kill your father, the king doesn't know but he enslaved people at the mines and so on,things were not looking well," Nessa responded.

After hearing what Nessa had to say, the princess was at a loss for words and just sat there.

"So tonight, those men, they came to what exactly? Kill me?" She asked.

"I'm pretty sure they had a lot on their minds, either way, they weren't going to let you see your father, things in the kingdom aren't great and some of the people are blaming the king, also, the letter you and your brother got, I am the one who sent it without the prince knowing but now that you contacted his father, they know someone sent it and are looking for who it was, they are not going to spare anyone who knows about this," Nessa responded.

Upon hearing most of what was going on, tears began to stream down the princess's cheeks as Nessa stared at her, knowing the princess was worried about her father, who was not safe even in his own home.

"Thank you for saving my life and sending that letter; my brother is coming tomorrow; I need to help him; do they know he's coming?" She asked.

"Not as yet, no and you are welcome," Nessa responded then the princess sighed.

"What's your name?" She asked.

"Hello," She said and he scoffed.

"Hello, your highness, I am glad you are safe," He replied and she smiled at him.

"Your highness, this is Mazen, a friend who wishes to assist us, and there is another maid at the castle who has been assisting me as well, Tina, they all just want things to return to normal," Nessa said, as Eli sighed.

"I'm glad you're getting help; this means more to me than you can imagine; our father is our life; he's been through a lot, and I don't want him to go through any more," She replied before Mazen sat down with Nessa and looked at her.

"Well, it's getting late; you guys can talk about it later, but for now, get some rest; the prince is about to become a bigger pain for all of us," Mazen said.

"A pain that I will handle, you guys leave him to me, I will teach them a good lesson, one that they will remember for the rest of their lives," Nessa replied as the two stared at her.

"What are you planning, Nessa?" Eli asked.

"There are a lot of things I can do to help; I'll start by having the you meet your father; I need to get this done as soon as possible because I've been here for a while," Nessa responded, and Mazen smiled at her. your-chapter-source

"Do you have to get home?" Mazen asked.

"You can say that, I have a lot of work I need to do, things to take care of that will not be easily done," She responded and they smiled at her.

"I think I understand, I hope you can get them done," Eli said, and Nessa smiled at the girl, seeing how nice she was and how similar she was to her father.
