Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164 Already they fall

“Daniel!” Doris screamed. She dropped next to him and rolled him over-but he was already out. He looked so pale, he looked as if all the lift had suddenly left him and she didn’t know how to get it back. “Daniel!”

Stomps echoed behind her and soon she was ripped away from him as if she was the one that knocked him down. Tears blurred her eyes and made everything seem as if it was out of focus around her. What was happening?

Guards went to check his pulse instantly and it was then that she noticed his chest was moving evenly. “He’s alive! Move him to the medical ward!”

“What happened to him?” Doris shouted. A guard roughly moved her further away from the scene and it only made her wolf want to break free and tear them apart for keeping her away from her friend.

“What did you do to him?” A man screamed in her face. Doris tried to push him away from her but his grip was like iron. His question ignited a fire inside her and made her ready to burn down everything around them.

“I didn’t do anything! We just came out for a walk and he collapsed!”

It was like her claims fell to the ground. They didn’t believe her for a second. Already she could see herself being thrown in the cells where it was cold and dark with no one but herself for company. She would suffer through hundreds of cells if it meant Daniel lived.

“Let me go with him! I need to make sure he’s okay!” Doris struggled to get out of their grip, but they only held on firmer.

“We can’t let you do that. We need to figure out what happened to him first-”

Doris finally forced her arm free from their grip with a growl that came straight from her wolf as if it was ripped from her throat. “How dare you treat me as if I had something to do with it? He started coughing and collapsed! I would never harm any of my friends,”

“Let her go to him.” William walked calmly towards them. Everything about him was collected, as if there wasn’t a worry in the world on his shoulders. “And don’t ever touch her like that again. I’ll rip both of your arms right off if I see you lay another hand on her like that.”

“As you wish.” The guards bowed to William and stepped out of her path. Doris looked at William for a second longer, but he did nothing but stare back at her. Had he been watching her walk with Daniel?

She hurried after where they took Daniel and found him in the medical ward with several doctors standing over him as if he was some sort of strange experiment that they couldn’t figure out.  “What happened to the prince?” Someone demanded. Doris quickly stepped up.

“He seemed fine until we went for a walk. He started coughing and fell to the ground a moment later. I told him we should sit but he insisted that he was fine-“

“That’s enough, thank you.” A doctor grumbled. The doctor checked his pulse and slowly she was pushed to the corner of the large room while they checked him.

“It doesn’t seem to be a problem with his heart—“

“We won’t know that until we do some tests—“

“The prince has been perfectly healthy! How would this have happened?”

Doris picked at her nails. She didn’t even notice William was next to her until he cleared his throat. It almost made her jump out of her skin. How long had he been standing there?

“I’d like Daniel to be moved somewhere more secure than here while you treat him.” William said. His voice silenced a room and brought all attention on him at once. It wasn’t hard to see him as the ruler he so desperately wanted to be.

“Prince William, he’s perfectly safe here-“

“I didn’t ask if he was safe here. I asked for him to be moved to a more secure location while you treat him.”

“This is the only place in the palace suited to treat him-“

William took a step forward and Doris swore all the doctors took one back. “I don’t want him in the palace. He needs to be moved to a more secure location. Far from the palace.”

Silence. The doctors exchanged uneasy looks that appeared just as confused as Doris felt.“ Yes, your majesty. We will find somewhere…better for him to heal.” One of the doctors bowed.
