Chapter 212 - Kiara Join The Squad Brina 1

Kiara made her way into the beautiful apple orchard. The whole place was lit up with warm golden light emitting from the garden lights as it illuminated on the glorious apple trees and ripe, reddish apples. 

The whole orchard gave her romantic vibes. And, she has never been to this side of the palace, so, she could only assume that Owen did all of this to surprise her. 

'Owen is way more romantic than I thought. This place is just out of the world, ahh…. I can't even comprehend whether this is the dream or real' Kiara thought as she blushed. 

As 'Owen' sent the location to her phone, she followed the directions only to stop at another beautiful place. 

It is the patio, with a roof. It is made of white wood and three sides are open while the other side has a wooden cladded wall. There are four, white luxurious lounge chairs beneath the roof and a round, white wood table in the middle of those chairs. 

It has a flower vase on it and there is also a screen embedded on the table. 

Kiara's face bloomed with happiness and she shyly made her way into the patio. 

Meanwhile….

"The orchard, the patio, they are beautiful!!" Hailey squealed. 

"No one is actually allowed into the orchard after three at noon. The orchard is exclusively for Royal families to spend some time with their families. However, it is under my care and directly connected to mine, Bro Ed's and Ethan's quarters. Dad, Mom rarely comes here, so it's more like a sibling's fun place" Eliina told Hailey. 

"Sister in law, you can have fun with my brother there. Why don't you both go on a date to the orchard? It would have been long if you went out together" Eliina suggested. 

"Yes, it's indeed been a long time. However, we can't risk getting spotted together. So Louis and I preferred staying indoors although we love to roam" Brina said. 

Eliina nodded her head, her lips pursed. However, an awesome idea popped up in her head. Deciding to talk to her brother later, she shifted her attention back on Kiara who is yet to enter the patio. 

After the marriage of this beautiful pair, Eliina is sure that they are going to create beautiful memories in the orchard and many other beautiful places in the palace. 

Meanwhile, Brina looked at the screen with keen attention. 

"Elle, instead of sending the video to Kiara's mobile, why can't we make the video Play on the screen embedded on the table? Will it be a risk? Like, will someone else be monitoring it?" she asked, suddenly. 

Brina is not sure how safe it is to send video to Kiara's personal phone. There are chances that this video can be restored back if the professional tech person tries it. 

She felt this table screen is secure compared to it because, as far as she could think of, this table screen is just for entertainment purposes like, playing games and watching movies. As it is a personal gadget, it must not be under monitoring as well. 

"It's absolutely safe, sis in law. That table screen is actually installed by bro Ed. As he loves to spend time in the orchard, he personally fixed it. So, it is not under monitoring and we can ask him to erase everything once we are done. That table screen is far safer than Kiara's personal phone" Eliina said. 

"Perfect. Lemme ask Louis for permission to hack into it. Otherwise he will get worried for nothing" Brina said as she quickly fished out her phone, however, only to get stopped. 

"No need for it, sister in law. As Brother installed your thumb print as well, you will be able to access everything that is personally only his." Eliina said, chuckling. 

"You can see his childhood pics too, if you want" Eliina added, giggling. 

"I will do it later. For now, let's get our remaining work done" Brina said as she pressed her thumb on the sensor. 

Soon, Eliina got permission and without much effort, they transferred the video to the screen on the table. 

…

Meanwhile, Kiara who is over the moon all again, took a seat on one of the lounge chairs, totally content. 

She didn't regret helping Olivia at all. All that effort is worth Owen's change towards her. All of  that embarrassment paid off as she secured an alliance between her house and Olivia's house. 

She is now going to be one of the members of House Lykaios, the most powerful House in the Kingdom after the Royal family. 

She actually doesn't like becoming a Queen as it has many responsibilities and many other factors to consider before taking a step. It is almost like a golden cage and she will be a beautiful bird in it. So, becoming the mistress of the next powerful House is what she wanted. 

While Kiara is in deep thought, the screen lit up, grabbing her unwavering attention. 

As it loaded, Kiara got excited! 

'Did Owen plan something special and unique for me? Gosh!!' she squealed inside. 

But what displayed on the screen shook her head and she could literally feel her heart thumping against her ribcage. 

Her face flushed and her limbs started to shiver. 

Who...who is the woman in Owen's arms?? 

Wh...why i...is he caressing her face so tenderly?? 

Kiara stiffened her back and her eyes fixed on the screen, all her unwavering attention on what's happening in the video. 

In the next ten minutes, her face paled up akin to a white sheet. Her eyes blurred up with tears, as they rolled down on her pretty cheeks, unstoppably. 

Owen….he ..he is already engaged! 

And, he… he is using he...her. 

He himself said that he is using her! 

She… she couldn't believe her ears. 

All those sweet words he told her in these few days, all those promises…

They are nothing but empty and fake! 

Kiara started sobbing as she clamped her hands on her mouth. All her body is shivering…. shivering to the extent that one could literally feel her agony. 

Of course, a girl will be this emotional once she finds out that she lost her virginity to a man who is nothing but a jerk, a betrayer. 

She thought he would marry her… however…

As Kiara remembered that she broke down, now, her sobs louder and unrestrained. 

She couldn't help but feel like a total fool. A fool who was fooled over and over again without any clue of what is happening. 

She felt like a loser. She felt like nothing is left in her for which she can feel proud of. 

She lost her integrity by taking part in a despicable act. 

She lost her respect by taking blame for which she didn't do. 

She became a cheater, a bad example in the eyes of the whole kingdom! And, what did she gain?? 

Nothing but this self loathe and self disgust. 

In addition to that she lost her previous virginity to someone who didn't respect her at all. She did all these willingly!! 

"God!! What am I going to do? I can't even show myself to others… ever again. I will be nothing but a loser." Kiara choked up. 

Meanwhile…

"I feel sorry for her. So, that bastard really took her virginity. So sad" Hailey said. 

"It's her own fault to believe him and take that step. I mean, it hasn't even been two weeks they started getting close to each other" Charlotte said. 

"He would have forced her. Men and their silver tongue. He must have shown all those empty promises and made her imagine the colorful, bright life that she couldn't help but devote herself" Eliina said. 

Meanwhile, Brina is standing quiet. She couldn't help but remember her past. 

Though she and Nickolas got engaged and have known each other for years, she never crossed that line. Besides this, he didn't force her as well. 

Fortunately, she never felt that he was the right one for her, though they had a smooth relationship. It was her primary instinct and she felt that spark only after meeting Louis. 

He made her feel all those emotions despite the short time they spent, compared to her long years with Nickolas. 

Maybe Kiara never thought about these because she is so desperate to meet her family's expectations and elevate her position as an ideal lady. 

"We should help her, guys. At Least she swam out of that fantasy world. She still has some reality left in her and let's see how she will utilise it." Brina said. 

"Elle, make a call to her. Let's talk to her" Charlotte told Eliina. 

"No, let's wait for sometime. She has to pull herself together and resolve what she wants to do next. Let's wait till she calms down and think about it." Brina told them. 

"But it might take hours. And, if she goes back to her suite, we have to again think of a way to bring her out." Charlotte protested. 

"Char, in the situation she is in, do you think she will go back to her suite? She is overwhelmed by all those painful emotions and I am sure there is no energy left in her to think of other things now. So, let's wait. Patience is virtue, my friend" Brina said. 

Only the people who went through all that painful things know how that feeling will be. And, Brina is one of them.
