L-J-L 76 Yes Liz, did learn how bad she really was treated in prison. She knew she had been beaten, just couldn't remember how bad it was. Her check up when well. The Doctor, Kara just put her finding on Liz's health in her file much like any doctor would.
keepsmiling7 Carolyn, yes Liz was in bad shape. Max may or may not be aware of how bad she really was. As for Kara and Zane being Liz's friends....it's possible though Kara is her doctor and Zane is going to have a very special roll in Liz's life later.
Part 24
Isabel watched Alex from the door of the library. He was studying. He had a lot to learn. He would act as an adviser once Max became King. She wanted to get to know him. But was unsure if he would want to get to know her.
"You can come in anytime you are ready Princess." Said Alex without looking up.
"How did you know I was there?"
"Well, I was bullied in school. So I kind of learned to be more aware of what is going on around me."
"Alex?"
"Yes?"
"Would you like to take a walk in the garden with me later?"
"Yeah. I would like that Princess."
"Isabel."
"What?"
"Call me Isabel."
"OK."
Isabel smiled and left the room.

Liz was in the garden when Zane found her. He had done his best to avoid her since that night Kivar got close to her. But he had no choice. The King had ordered him to bring her to him. He took a deep breath and walked up to her.
"Liz?"
"Oh hi Zane."
"The King has requested I bring you to his office."
"More like ordered."
"Right."
"Zane I never blamed you for what happened with Kivar. You really should forgive yourself."
"I can't. Liz, I know that you are to be the next Queen. I failed at keeping you safe."
"Zane, in a way what happened helped me. It made me realize that I didn't want to be alone. That I want to love and be loved in returned. I became closer to Max since that night then I have been to anyone in my life."
"You know Kara my, girlfriend likes to tell me I'm being a butthead."
"Yeah I believe that. I met her. She is the doctor I when to today."
"As long as she is on Antar she is your doctor. Now please come with me."
Liz got up and followed the guard to Philip's office. Zane knocked on the door and after hearing Philip tell them to come in they entered.
"Thank you Zane. You are dismissed." Said Philip
"Yes sire." Said Zane and left the room.
Liz stood nervously biting her lip. This was the first time she had ever been alone with the King. Philip gave her a warm smile.
"Liz please sit down so we can talk." Said Philip leading her over to the sofa.
Liz sat down and Philip sat next to her. He took her hand and held it.
"Liz, I asked you here because you need to go before the council. You need to tell them what happened the night of the state dinner."
"I don't like to talk about it."
"I know honey. But if we want to stop Kivar hurting those girls, then I need you to do this. Liz, some of the members of the council are unsure of you. They don't believe that you have that inner strength needed to be queen."
"I won't like it. But I'll do it."
"Thank you."
"If this can stop Kivar then it has to be done."
"It's not always pleasant being a leader Liz."
"No it's not Philip."
Philip leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on Liz's check.
"You may go. I'll see you at dinner."
"Yeah. See you at dinner."
Liz got up and headed for her room to get ready for dinner.
