Dexter lowered his tone. "Felicity used to be His Royal Highness' personal bodyguard. But there was a rumor that she was actually his lover!" Jasper was gobsmacked. "His lover?" "I'm not sure about the details. After all, I was still young when that woman was sentenced for her crime. This was the royal family's secret, and I found it through various sources during these years of working in the palace." He continued, "I heard that back then, His Royal Highness was deeply in love with this woman. They had also been living together. I've also heard that she becpregnant with a royal heir! "After that, she was somehow sentenced to death because of treason. After she fled, she was even put on the wanted list worldwide. There has been no news about her for 30 whole years. Who knows if she has actually passed on in a foreign land." Jasper's face was stiff and pale. The veins of his hand were popping as he grabbed onto the railing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis news was shocking. It was way more than he couldprehend, and he didn't know what to think.
"Since she was in love with the king, she should've abided by the law. Why did she end up as a spy?" "This is the most puzzling thing. That's why word has been going around saying that Felicity was set up by Her Royal Highness. I'm sure you've seen those television series about feuds in palaces. Feuds within the royal families are always cut-throat, even now.
"Moreover, it hadn't been too long since the queen married His Royal Highness at the time. She was his second marriage. When a female guard conceived a royal heir ahead of her, it was a form of humiliation to her as the queen. So, how could she tolerate that woman? It wouldn't be surprising if she did the unthinkable." All of a sudden, a chilling sensation cover Jasper, making his insides churn.
If what Dexter said were not rumors but the truth, and if Felicity was truly Alyssa's mother, the truth about Felicity's life was troubled waters.
If they weren't careful, they could end up so deep in it that they wouldn't be able to get out! "Jasper, I'd urge you not to get involved in the Kontinian royal family's affairs. The farther away you stay, the better." Dexter advised him out of good intentions. In a serious tone, he added, "I can only tell you that all these rumors about the Kontinian royal family you hear about might not all be untrue. There is truth in it." "Thank you, my friend. But, since I've taken this step, I don't want to give up." Jasper took a deep breath as he clenched his fingers into fists. "If youe across any other information about Felicity in the future, please letknow.
"I'm not afraid of getting in trouble or danger. I just want to find out the truth." At 4:00 am the next day, Alyssa jolted awake after being tormented by convoluted dreams the entire night Her nightgown was soaked in cold sweat. "J-Jasper!" "I'm here, Lyse." Upon hearing Alyssa's raspy and anxious call to him, Jasper pushed the bedroom door open and strode in hurriedly.

"Were you having a nightmare?" he asked in a gentle, husky voice as he nuzzled her cheek.
"Yeah... It scared me." Alyssa pressed her forehead against his chin. She sniffled and said, "I dreamed that... you could no longer recognize me. No matter how much I cried or yelled, you weren't ing to turn back to look at me. You just kept walking further and further..." "Oh, silly. Don't scare yourself." Jasper stroked her hair. "I should be the one saying this because I will never do such a thing." "You... You've been up all night?" "Yeah. With such an important matter to attend to, I couldn't fall asleep." To be frank, he spent the entire night mulling over Dexter's words. He had also gone online to research information about the royal family in Kontina, but he didn't find any useful information. Alyssa wrapped her arms around Jasper's neck. She pressed her soft lips against his and kissed him.
Gradually, his breaths becheavy. He ventured in between her teeth, prompting a passionate response from her. "Has there been news from Axel?" Alyssa panted. Her cheeks had turned pink out of shyness.
"Yeah. Don't worry. We'll be there to handle everything." Jasper lay her down. When he propped himself up over her, he couldn't help but lower himself to give her another kiss. "It's still early. Go back to bed and wait forto call you with good news."
