Maya got the news that Amelia has returned back to Naples. She was angry at Amelia, she pick up her phone and called her.
When Amelia saw her call, she was guilty because she promised Henderson that she will call her and tell her. But she didn’t because of the things she has to do in the palace. She didn’t pick up the call, she allowed it to end and called her back.
“Is this who you are?” Maya asked, Amelia could hear the change in her voice. “I am so sorry Maya. Please.”
“Don’t ever call me again. Am so angry with you.” Maya said. “I know. I wanted to call you but I was carried away with the meeting and everything in the palace.”
“Wh@tëver. Do not call me again.” She replied. “Maya, Maya please listen to me..” Before she could finished, she has already hang up. “Oh goodness. I’m finished.” She mumbled and called her number again, Maya saw that she was the one calling. She didn’t pick up.
“Maya com’on please.. Pick up.” She mumbled to herself. She didn’t pick up, she dropped her phone on the bed and left.
Amelia went to the local market, with some of the royal guards. She didn’t want all the securities to go with her.
“Good afternoon, Your Majesty.” A little boy greeted her, he was trying to get close to her. But the guards didn’t allow him. Amelia asked them to stop and immediately they did and the little boy came close to her.
He smiled at her and went to the extent of holding her hand. They began to walk together. “Your hands are soft and smooth.”
“Oh yeah. Yours too.” She mumbled. He nods and stared at his hand that was neat at all. He tried to remove his hand, Amelia stopped him.
“Are you hungry?” Amelia asked. “Yes.” He replied and took her to the place they do sale snacks. .
“Please give him something to eat.” She said. The man selling, gave him snacks. “Are you okay with that?” She asked, he shook his head negatively.
“What about your mom?” She asked, to her surprised he pointed at a woman sitting on the floor. She ran her hand on her hair and mumbled. “Okay…” She couldn’t ask any further question. “Your Majesty.” The woman bowed in respect. Amelia nods.
“Get your mom something to eat, you know what she likes.” Amelia said. He got something for his mom and Amelia made a payment and talked with the woman on what they are doing in the street.
She explained everything to her, on how she lost her husband and her brother in law collected everything they owned. Amelia promise to get her property back. She gave them some money.
She Amelia came back from the market, she went to her father’s bedroom. Since she arrived, she hasn’t been there. She glared at the while room and walked closer to the furniture on the wall. It’s was a big picture of her mother, she brought it down and dropped it on the bed. She sat down.
“Mom, you’re still looking beautiful. Coming back to Naples is a good thing mom. Lemme tell you, i went to the market and met with some villagers. Mom I wished you and dad were still alive.
I miss you mom and dad. I have no one to cry on.” She mumbled and sighed heavily.
“Mom I have made a mistake. Maya is angry with me. She asked me not to call her again. Mom it’s my fault, I forgot to call her.” She mumbled.
On that spot that she removed the picture of her mother, it was secret room. She opened it slowly and entered, the lights on. She walked into the room and saw a desk and some files on it. It’s been 10 years since her father died, she dusted the file with her hand and opened it. It was a letter written to king Harry before he died.
She began to open the drawer and luckily she found something on it. It’s ala a file, she opened it and began to read. It was a file which stated that she can rule Naples. It was made my her father before he died.
“It seems like you knew that something like this was gonna happen, dad. I miss you.” She said, in tears the file on her chest.

Mirabel came to the palace and Amelia was happy and surprised to see her, a lot of thoughts were going on her mind and head.
“Did Maya tell her about the issue we have?” She thought and smiled at Mirabel. “It seems like you are not happy to see me?” Ms Mirabel said.
“No.No.No. Am very happy to see you. I’m sorry if acted somehow, you know.” She said and shrugged.
“Please come in.” She mumbled and Mirabel followed her into the palace, they went to the sitting room. “It’s been a long time here. Thank God that Naples has gotten a new ruler.” She said, Amelia smiled.
“You came to see me.” Amelia said, smiling.
“Well let me just say that I came to stay. Am back to the palace.” Mirabel replied and Amelia nods her head and then realised what she just said.
“What did you say? What are you talking about?” Amelia stammered, shocked. “Your Majesty. I promised your father that I will take care of you and your nephew. It is my duty to serve the royal family.”
“No, you can’t.” Amelia replied. “Why? Because you know my son. You already know him, when y’all were little. Please. Don’t ask me to leave.” Mirabel said. Amelia looked away for a few minutes and took a deep breathe.
“Does Ethan knows that you’re coming here?. About this thing you just said.” She asked. “Yes. He knows that the royal family is my responsibility.” She replied.
“Oh goodness me. Okay wh@tëver you say.” Amelia replied. “The king is also aware of this.” She added.
“Seriously, he is doing things without my approval. He should just wait for me to give birth…” She thought.
“The maids will take you to your room.” Queen Amelia said and smiled at her, she stared at the bracelet on her right hand.
She headed back to her bedroom.
“I need to call Maya. Maybe she will pick up.” She said to no one in particular.
“What if she doesn’t pick up? Oh my….” She mumbled and sat on the king size bed. “Thank goodness, at least tonight will be great. I won’t spend it alone.” She yelled.

Raj walked around the room. “I can’t believe she came back to Naples. Amelia or wh@tëver your name is. This is the end of you.”
He angrily pushed down everything on the table. He yelled angrily. “I would have killed her, a long time a ago. I would have been the one sitting on that throne. If only that Bîtch had listen to me and work with me.”
“Bur this isn’t the end of the journey Saanvi. Neither is it the end Amelia, I will take everything that belongs to you. And Saanvi..I will get back to you.”
He walked out of the house and went to his car, he took off immediately to a club to cool off his head. He ordered for a drink and a lady walked close to him. “Hi handsome. Need someone tonight.” The lady said.
“Yeah. I hope you can give me what i want.” He said and pulled her close to himself.
“Of course. Am all yours my lord.” She said, touching his chest. Raj smirked and carried her to an empty room.
Amelia took her bath and walked out of the bathroom, she glared at the mirror touching herself. “I’m getting too fat.” She muttered and rubbing her belly. “Oh.. Am hungry right now.” She said to herself.
“Baby, I love you so much. Not just me, your dad loves you too. I can’t wait to have you, to bring you into this world. I will shower you with love and care. I promise you won’t go through these things we went through. Yeah it was difficult for us..”
“Am not gonna make this night sad, for us okay. Am hungry and I know you are.” She said and wiped her tears.
She get dressed and was sitting on the bed, when Mirabel walked in. “Good evening, your majesty.”
“Good evening, Ms Mirabel.” Queen Amelia replied. “What do we have here?” She asked.
“I made soup for you and your baby.” Ms Mirabel said. “Oh really?”
“Yeah. It’s good for pregnant women. And I used to prepare this soup for your late mom, when she was pregnant for your brother and you.”
“Mom was very happy right?” She asked. “She was very happy, my child. You are just like her. Same face, same character. You’ve everything she had.”
“It still feel like yesterday Ms Mirabel. Losing both parents. I don’t want such thing to happen to…” She paused and looked at her belly. “My baby..” She said and sigh.
“Nothing like that will happen. You have to be strong for your baby, your fianceé. And your people. Everyone need you.” Mirabel said. “Thank you. Ms Mirabel.”
“Com’on, be happy. Your soup is getting cold.” Ms Mirabel said. “Okay, thank you.” Amelia said and Ms Mirabel uncovered the bowl of soup and gave it to her, Amelia sipped from the spoon.
“Wow. It’s delicious. Ms Mirabel. You’re good.” Amelia said and sipped from it. “I’m glad you like it.”
“Am very happy, do you know why?” Amelia said. “No.”
“Because you’re here. I have been alone for some days now and i was sad, but am happy now.” Amelia said, smiling. Mirabel smiled, “And am glad to hear that you are happy. It’s good to home again.”
