After morning training , Emeriel freshened up quickly before making her way to the breakfast table .
Her muscles still ached , but she welcomed the burn .

it was the only thing that felt real these days .
The large wooden doors creaked as she entered the dining hall .
Ackeira was the only one seated , sipping from her cup .
Youre here , Em , take a seat , Aekeira said warmly , gesturing to the chair beside her .
Emeriels jaw clenched , resisting the urge to lash out .
It wasnt Ackeiras fault that the name shed called her all her life now stirred memories of slavery and Urai .
Where is the king and Daviel ? Emeriel asked in a clipped voice as she sank into the seat .
The king had an early court session, I think .
And the prince ? Ackeira gaye a half hearted shrug , hes probably still in bed .
They ate in silence .
The food tasted like sawdust , but Emeriel forced herself to swallow .
Everything tasted like ash these days .
As they were about to leave , the door opened .
King Orestus strode in , his guards flanking him .
Is everything alright , Your Majesty ? Aekeira inquired , her brow furrowed .
The king hesitated .
His hand twitched at his side as he looked at Emeriel before shifting his gaze to Aekeira .
The tyrant king ruled with an iron fist , he rarely looked this … anxious .
Something was wrong .
Emeriel , Aekeira , he cleared his throat , I hope you werent … uh ..
upset about , you know , what happened in my study the other day ? About the letters ? Aekeira was bewildered .
No , not the letters .
Orestus shifted awkwardly .
The part where lost my … um … temper .
I want to apologize for that .
About … saying I would crucify you for the secrets you hide … I didnt mean it .
Emeriels patience snapped .
Okay , what the hell is going on ? Years ago , she never decorum and respect .
would have dared to speak to the king in such a manner .
But years ago , she had cared about things like These days , she could barely care enough to drag herself out of bed .
What is happening ? Aekeira asked too .
They are here .
The king looked downright terrified .
Who is here ? Aekeiras voice dropped to a whisper .
Time stretched and distorted .
Emeriels heartbeat pounded in her ears .
Then , she stopped breathing entirely .
Surely he 1/4 DramaBox Stream Drama Shorts Cause You Were Never Mine -1 ↓ A Chapter 200 doesnt mean … The Urekai .
Three in number .
King Orestus said at last .
They are here to see you two .
Aekeira gasped , her hand flying to her mouth .
But , the sound seemed far away , muffled .
The world tilted on its axis .
Emeriels vision tunneled , her hearing replaced by a rising , high pitched ringing that drowned out everything else .
No.
No.
Not them .
Not here .
Not now .
The dining hall blurred .
The table , the walls , even her sister … everything receded into the distance .
Or was she the one falling back ? Emeriel wasnt sure anymore .
When had she stood up ? Em ? Aekeiras voice was faint .
She saw her sisters mouth move , her lips forming her name , but it didnt feel real .
Aekeira was pale .
Too pale .
The color drained entirely from her face , leaving her whiter than a vampire .
So , this isnt a dream , then .
It is real .
They are here .
Emeriel stumbled backward until she slammed into something solid a wall , maybe but she barely registered the pain .
Her breaths came in shallow bursts .
No , no , no … ! Thoughts slipped from her grasp .
Limbs sluggish , like she was wading through thick mud .
She had to run away from here .
Em ! Aekeira was suddenly in front of her , pulling her into a fierce hug .
Emeriel recoiled .
Too close .
Too crowded .
She didnt want to be touched .
Couldnt handle the closeness .
But Aekeira didnt let go .
No matter how hard Emeriel pushed , her sisters grip only tightened .
What is happening to her ? King Orestuss voice was distant .
Do I need to call for the medicine man ? You are okay , Em .
You are fine , Aekeira soothed .
Im here .
Im not letting go .
Small , pitiful whimpers .
They were hers .
Those fragile noises were coming from her .
2/4 Α ΑΠ DramaBox Stream Drama Shorts Cause You Were Never Mine Chapter 200 Emeriel bit down on her lips and shut everything out .
The voices .
The world .
All that existed was her fight for breath .
The burning in her lungs as her body shuddered in sync with Aekeiras .
Time stretched on .
Endless .
Suffocating .
But slowly , Emeriel felt the ground return beneath her feet .
The ringing in her ears faded , the world around her slithering back in a slow return .
Im fine now , she croaked , rasply .
You can let go , Keira .
Her sister released her , tears tracing paths down her face .
Her eyes searched Emeriels .
Probing .
Looking for signs that all was truly alright .
Emeriel averted her face .
Dont look at me like that .
Dont look too closely .
She hadnt had an attack this intense in years .
Way too long .
Please … send them away .
Small , hoarse , barely her own .
Em No.
Her voice gained strength .
They should go .
Lets at least hear why theyve come .
If Emeriel shook her head any harder , her neck would break , and her head would tumble down her shoulders .
I dont want to .
You dont mean that- I dont want to see them .
I dont want to know why they are here .
I want them gone .
Her voice rose , high pitched , and panicked again .
Aekeira wiped her tears , nodding slowly , though her eyes remained filled with sadness .
Its okay , Em .
I understand .
You dont have to see them if you dont want to .
You can go see them if you want , Emeriel tone turned brittle .
But promise not to tell me a thing when you return .
If you return .
I dont wish to hear it .
Why wouldnt I return ? If you decide you wish to go back to Urai , I dont need to know .
She said in a flat tone .
I dont want to know .
You could go with them .
Aekeira flinched , hurt flashing in her eyes .
You dont mean that I do ! Leave me alone ! she shouted .
Aekeira reared back like Emeriel had dealt her a physical blow .
The pain in Aekeiras eyes burned into Emeriel .
Chapter 200 Stop .
Stop hurting her .
Its not her fault .
You never hurt Keira .
The guilt surged , drowning Emeriel .
But she slammed it down , burying it deep , beneath the cold wall Emeriel let those ice seep into her being .
Cold was safer .
Cold meant survival .
Squaring her shoulders , Emeriel turned and walked away .
