Chapter 187 Off they go 

Martin stared at William with a bit of emptiness in his eyes. She almost felt bad for himif he hadnt threatened her earlier. As well as try to bargain for her life as if she was a prize to be won. It boiled her blood to sit here silently while they argued about herbut Beth flashed in her mind and she remained silent. She was good at that, she could be silent for her best friend even when her mind screamed at her to stand up for herself.  Daily new chapters in www.noveljar.com

Who am I if not the next king? Who am I if I cant hold on to the title that was forced upon me? Now my brother wants to take the only thing I have left in this life. I’m nothing without that crown and you know it. Youve always known it, I dont understand why you would leave me with nothing.” 

Youre telling me that you want to rule this kingdom by yourself? Your mother isn‘t here to pull your strings. Our brother isnt here to whisper in your ear of what is right or wrong. Do you truly believe you would know whats best for this kingdom without them?”
