The Forgotten Luna by Cassandra M

ADESSA.

"Did the accident really happen? Did he lose his memory, or was that an act to force divorce on you because he no longer wanted you?" Father asked all this in one breath. "But he changed his mind when he found out you could be of Royal blood." "He had an accident! If you researched him, then it should be here!" My voice was higher, and my hand slammed on the folder as I fought my tears-everything he said kept piercing my heart.

I could take anything. I could take the divorce talk. I could take looking at photos of him and Desiree embracing and laughing. But my heart couldn't accept that he didn't love me as he said.

"It is here." The King took out documents and pushed them in front of me.

My eyes watered as I looked at the papers-some of them I was familiar with as they were handed to me while he was in a coma.

All these documents were signed by Dr. Carlitos, the one who attended to him because Dr. Gideon was not around.

"The doctor who saw and attended to him was not a legitimate doctor. Tell me, Adessa, how would I believe he did forget about you?"

My mouth hung open as my head slowly tilted up and met his eyes. But I didn't find the answer I was looking for.

I was so stupid not to ask anything about Dr. Carlitos. I desperately wanted him to wake up and just let them control everything, as I thought Miranda and Dexter knew better.

I didn't even check if he was a real doctor or not. But I knew he was in a coma. I was there almost 24/7 with him. I would know if he were faking being asleep.

Unless they made him fall asleep all the time.

No. No.
