My Evil Boy Toy

"I need to know who was the heir Margaret. Everyone was already looking for that person. What happened after you took the royal seal?" Kyle asked.

I still couldn't believe that Benjamin was helping Alejandro. He approached me again to get my trust so no one could suspect him. He pretended to know nothing about everything, but the truth was he planned it all.

He planned on taking Flousia to take revenge on the royal family. Alejandro said that Benjamin hated everyone related to my mother. He wanted to kill Kyle then marry me off to Alejandro or anyone from the Mafia.

I looked at Kyle, and I was relieved that he was okay. He came to visit me after everything in the palace had settled down. Grandpa wanted to go, but he wasn't allowed to go out yet.

"I know you just had a rough time, and I'm sorry for coming here to ask you that. But Margaret, once they found the first person who took the royal seal, they would kill him after getting the information they needed. It would happen to the next person; they will kill everyone who was involved with this scheme until they find the heir." Kyle explained.

I knew what I did put everyone's lives in danger, but it would get us enough time to prepare ourselves for another attack.

"I gave the royal seal to Aaron." I answered.

Kyle frowned, thinking who that person was. He was sitting on the chair beside my bed, looking like a glorified king.

"The historian?" Kyle asked.

I nodded. I don't even know where Aaron was right now. It was an impulsive decision of mine, I know. But I was too desperate at that time to save myself.

Kyle sighed and didn't say a word; instead, he smiled at me and held my hand.

"How are you?" He asked.

"I-I'm fine." I stammered.

He stood up and kissed me on the forehead. I was about to cry, and tears were already filling my eyes when he wiped them away.

"You'll get through this. I know it's hard. I can't imagine how painful it was. I'm sorry I failed to protect you."

I shook my head and smiled.

"No. I'm lucky to have you as my brother. Your responsibility is with Emily, your child, and with Flousia. I have mine to protect. It's not your fault. No one's at fault, but those people who crave revenge and power." I said with gritted teeth.

He pulled me into his arms, embracing me tightly. I've been crying for almost a week now, and I was already exhausted. Mireya would always be a part of our family. 

Even though she was just more than a month old in my womb, she was still a part of me when she died. And my foster father was responsible for my grieving heart.

I gave him a chance to redeem himself, but in the end, he betrayed me and broke me once more. I've had enough. I will make sure he will pay for what he did to me. I promised I would avenge my baby girl.

"How's grandpa?" I asked Kyle.

"He's fine. He wanted to visit you, but I told him to stay at the palace."

"Did you catch everyone? Including all of Alejandro's spies in the palace?" I asked again.

Kyle stared into my eyes and sighed again before answering.

"Yes. But for now, don't think of anything else. Focus on recovering. Caden is waiting for you." He said in a gentle voice.

After knowing that I gave the royal seal to Aaron, Kyle secretly ordered to track him down. Luke and Jayden's men focused on hunting my foster father, Benjamin.

My birth father, Matthew Forelli, rose into power again, taking over the largest underworld organization. But this time, he promised his allegiance to the King of Flousia.

With all those in power helping each other to catch Benjamin, we were expecting good news soon.

Seven days passed, and I was allowed to go home. But my wound was not completely healed, so I needed to rest at home. It wasn't just a bruise, I've been stitched and operated on, so I have to stay in our bedroom for the time being. 

"Mommy!" It was Caden running towards the bed.

"Caden, careful with mommy. You know what happened, right?" Jayden winked.

Caden nodded and hugged me gently. He didn't ask me about what happened or talk about his sister. He just stayed with me and told me stories about him and Alira.

"Caden, do you know what happened to mommy? To your baby sister?" I asked.

He bowed his head and nodded.

"Sweetie, I want you to know that it's okay to cry. Don't force yourself to smile. Mommy and daddy cried too." I said while tilting his chin up. 

He started pouting, and tears began falling from his eyes. Then he burst out crying.

"Oh, my love!" I whispered, pulling him gently into my arms.

Jayden sat down beside him, hugging us both. He kissed Caden on the forehead while rubbing his back.

"Shh. It's okay, sweetie. Your sister said she loves you." I murmured.

"I'm so scared you will leave me too, mommy. I dreamed of her. She said I should take care of you and daddy. I told her I was sorry I wasn't there to protect her. She said it was okay. She disappeared after saying goodbye." He wailed.

I couldn't say a word to him and started crying. I was able to control myself from crying for three days now, but seeing Caden made my heartache again. 

My eagerness to get revenge grew. How could Benjamin, who I considered my father, break my family like this? What kind of human being enjoyed the suffering of others?

We let Caden cry until he fell asleep. Jayden and I didn't talk to each other. It was painful for both of us to see how hurt Caden was.

Jayden's phone suddenly rang, breaking our silence. He took it on the bedside table and answered.

"You found Aaron? Where is he?" He asked.

I started feeling anxious. I was staring at Jayden, waiting for his next word. He ended the call and looked at me.

"Aaron's back in the palace.." Jayden answered.
