?|THE LAST PIECE|?{Wmmap}

       {========================}

Ashaya's  gaze was devoid of emotion, as if she had not just left a man battered and to death.

"I'm okay, inform Father of this when he awakens; he needs his rest.
And Athy must remain oblivious to this"
Ashaya commanded Felix as she wiped her hands clean with a handkerchief.

'How troublesome.'
She internally complained.

A group of guards came running and greeted her, Ashaya threw the handkerchief aside and turned her to look at them.

The atmosphere thickened, as Ashaya exuded a chilling aura that belied her youth, she commanded with a voice that brooked no dissent, her eyes remained as indifferent and cold as usual.

"Heighten the security at Emerald Palace.
You will face the consequences if my sister is harmed."

"Understood."
The guards replied, their voices quaking with trepidation, their head lowered in submission.

Lily who was just informed of this Matter rushed towards Ashaya's room her heart beating in an unruly manner

What if the princess is unable to defend herself? The mere thought sent a chill coursing through Lily.

She entered the room running, panting heavily, she frantically searched the room and felt extreme relief the moment her eyes laid on Ashaya who was talking to a few guards.

After finishing up the matter with the assassin, Ashaya turned her attention to Lily, who had entered moments earlier.

"Prepare a bath, Lily; I feel unclean."
She ordered, yawning.

She stretched her arm as if the earlier chaos had been nothing more than a fleeting dream.

She turned her head to look at the beautiful moon.

'Whoever you are you better stay prepared, because I'm gonna make sure you don't live another day after I find out who you are.'

In the aftermath of that fateful day, the security in Emerald place doubled.

Whispers of the young princess's unyielding and merciless nature echoed throughout the palace walls, some believed it as the truth and some thought of as nothing more than a fleeting rumour.

Ashaya was being robbed of her of restful slumber, she simply couldn't fall asleep.

She consulted the imperial doctors but nothing seem to help, she has developed a serious insomnia.

'My sleep!!!'

No amount of of medicine and potion was helpful as she had a psychological trauma.

"Someone find me a therapist here!!!"

The monotony of her days and now nights, devoid of meaningful engagement, transformed her existence into a veritable torment.

However, everything shifted when she was bestowed the honor of knighthood,

Obelian nobles could attain such privilege when they turned fifteen at the earliest.

Ashaya received a recommendation through her mentor, Felix, also the knight captain.

And after pleading with her father and going through many tests and trials she received what she wanted.

The responsibilities of knighthood filled her days with purpose.

Her extraordinary talents and esteemed position as an imperial princess facilitated a swift ascent through the ranks.

She soon found herself as a captain, leading a small cadre of knights Called 'The white order'
