The ss scattered, and the sharp shard grazed Maximus’s skin.


    Silence ensued when the ttering sound ended, for a moment, but then Maximus simply told her not to get out of the bed.


    “Stay there. I will get you another ss.” Maximus’s expression didn’t even change when he poured another ss of water and went to give it to Rania.


    But, she grabbed it and hurled it across the room. This time the ss hit the wall and shattered. She red at Maximus viciously, and he could only see her hatred.


    She had every right to hate him, but still… Maximus wished something different.


    “You don’t want me to give you water? It’s okay, Karin is on the way here. I will stay until she is here.” Maximus sat on the edge of the bed. He didn’t try to touch Rania, because he knew she wouldn’t like that, even though he really wanted to wrap her in his arms.


    And when Rania pushed herself into a sitting position, and then attacked him by wing his face, Maximus let her.


    Blood oozed out from the wound, yet the king said nothing, he simply stared at her gently. “If hurting me can ease your pain, do it. Do whatever you want with me, Rania. Even if you give me poison, I will dly drink it.”


    He knew that he was hopeless. He couldn’t bring himself to hurt her. When he learned she had betrayed him by giving him poison, he had punished her.


    However, it felt like he punished himself more.


    And with the death of their unborn child, Maximus knew it was a regret that was worse than anything else


    that he had ever done.


    This time Rania wrapped her fingers around his neck, she wanted to strangle him, and Maximus was sitting there, epting his fate.


    Unfortunately for Rania, shecked of strength. Her energy had been depleted after she was in unconscious state for so long.


    Therefore, no matter how hard she was trying to strangle him, she couldn’t do it.


    And right in that time, Karin walked into the room, she gasped in shock and immediately pulled Rania away from the king.


    “My king, are you alright?” Karin asked worriedly.


    “Check on her, don’t let her to get out of the bed before someone clean up this mess<b>,</b>” Maximus said calmly, he wiped the blood from his face, as his wound had healed and then got up.


    He wanted her to wake up, but he also knew that Rania might not want to see him when she finally regained her consciousness<b>. </b>

    Therefore, her strong reaction was expected.


    However, when Maximus stood up and was about to leave, Rania suddenly moved forward to yank him back. She had not yet done. She wanted to kill him.


    Rania was no longer care whether she would be punished for what she was doing or not, because she wanted Maximus to die.


    She wanted him to die so badly, just like how he had killed their unborn child.


    “Mydy, no!” Karin was panic, she tried to pull Rania back, but she was too fast, as she was already on Maximus’s face, and hit his face.


    The hit itself was not that hard, because she didn’t have the strength to deliver a harsh punch, but her body lost her bnce, and almost fell off the bed if it was not for the king, who caught her in time.


    The floor was still covered in sharp sses, and Rania would only hurt herself if she fell on top of them.


    “Don’t fight me, Rania, you will only hurt yourself,” Maximus said gently, as if the woman in his arms didn’t try to hurt him.


    This must be the first time for Maximus to be very considerate. He was well known of not having a patient. He wouldn’t be so calm when someone tried to punch him.


    But, he was being very calm and collected when he dealt with his angry mate.


    “I will take her to my room, ask someone to clean this up and thene with me to check on her.” Maximus then lifted Rania’s body easily.


    He furrowed his brows slightly because of how light she was. Her weight was already concerning when she came here for the first time.


    But, at this moment, Maximus finally grasped how everything had taken toll on her, whether it was physically or mentally.


    “Don’t fight me, Rania, Maximus said, as he carried her in his arms. “You will get yourself hurt.”


    Rania struggled in his arms, but she didn’t make any sound, and by this time Maximus understood. She shut herself down again.


    Whenever her emotions overwhelmed her, she wouldn’t be able to speak.


    Eiten had told him about what happened, and Maximus had asked ire toe over and asked the woman himself.


    She apologized for not saying anything sooner, and Maximus had the urge to punish her, but then he knew it wouldn’t solve his problem.


    It was his fault.<fn93c9> Chapters first released on fin?novel</fn93c9>


    As a king, he shouldn’t have admitted that he had made a mistake, but for his mate, he didn’t care about being

    a king


    Maximus ced Rania gently on his bed, and Karin followed closely behind them. She came in time when Rania pped the king.


    The sound of it was very weak, but it was still a p nheless.


    Seeing this, Karin was scared for Rania’s life.


    But, the king didn’t show any reaction, he simply caressed her cheek. “I will leave you with Karin. Get more rest.” Maximus said before he left the room.


    Meanwhile, Karin immediately checked on Rania. She was too work up, thus her blood pressure spiked.


    “Mydy, you need to calm down, please…” Karin tried to hold her back from leaving this room.


    Rania didn’t want to be here. This room smelled like Maximus and it confused her anger. She hated him. She didn’t want to be surrounded by his scent.
