Royal Madness

Chapter 8 In Captivity

Wang Yu Yan was dressed in a red marriage robe with her face covered with a veil. Her personal attendant Mo Ru Shi helped her prepare to make sure the princess looked proper. "Your Highness, we must hurry we can't allow the groom to wait for you any longer",

"You are right, Ru Shi. Time is not our side. Let's hurry", the princess lifted herself from the chair and rushed towards the main palace. Her dress occasionally got caught in her shoes as her pace was speedy.

Arriving at the hall everyone awaited her. She poised herself breaking into a slow step. Rows of people stood on both sides.

She recognized her sister, the 1st princess. She had a look of disdain on her face as their gazes both met. Then she saw her mother, the Queen. Her heart was eager to see her smiling at her but Wang Yu Yan was disappointed to see the anger radiating from where the Queen stood. Wang Yu Yan felt one cold tear, rolling down one of her cheeks.

She continued and saw three blurry faces all standing side by side. She tried to focus on her pupils to no success. Just before the end of the aisle, her heart warmed as she saw Han Mey, the head maidservant.

She had a proud look of joy as Wang Yu Yan couldn't help but smile when she saw her. All that remained was the man standing on the end of the aisle waiting for her. He was not dressed in a traditional male wedding robe. Instead, he wore a black garment. It was divided at the torso to make two different pieces for the upper body and the lower body.

The clothing at the bottom was further unusual as it was split in between the legs. The cloth wrapped tightly around his legs making it easy to see his body shape underneath.

Standing right before the man Wang Yu Yan felt her heart racing. She was scared but at the same joy filled her heart. Before he could lift her veil she saw his face.

Then her eyes immediately flew open. It took a while for her to grasp what was going on around her.

But then she finally took notice of the unfamiliar setting. Everything around her was white, and strange things were hooked to her face. Something cupped around her mouth and her hand had a series of tubes that bore into her.

What was going on?

Was she being held against her will?

Wang Yu Yan remembered the events of the previous night. A rush of fear consumed her being recalling the feeling of being lost once again. The floodgates opened in her eye sockets.

She frantically started removing the objects attached to her arm. The pain shot to her heart immediately as she removed the needle inside her. Wang Yu Yan winced in severe agony.

As soon as she screamed, she saw two ladies dressed in similar clothing enter the room.

"What are you doing miss? That was not supposed to be removed now. Besides you cant do that yourself. You are endangering yourself as our patient ",

The other one spoke more aggressively, "Are you nuts, you shouldn't mess with hospital equipment",

Wang Yu Yan looked at them in horror as they approached her.

"Hey, you should be careful how you talk to her. You know how rich people can get",

The other nurse glared at her colleague then quickly forced a smile as she talked to the patient this time, "Miss, what is the matter. Is there something you need? Would you please calm down.", she tried to take a hold of the patient's arms but was met by retaliation as the patient plastered herself into the wall, her feet were at the head of the bed.

"Mam, please calm down. We are not going to hurt you. We are here to help you", the first nurse had her hands up in the open to try and reassure the madam. Wang Yu Yan increased in her distrust as she searched for Ru Shi's sword.

If they had good intentions then why would they take her only defense?

"Bring me my sword", she commanded

"I told you she was a nut", the other nurse exclaimed as she turned around and walked away in defeat.

"Where are you going?", the nurse felt abandoned as she was left alone with the patient. Who knew that the girl who woke up from a 3-day coma would be this energetic upon her recovery.

The nurse pressed the buzzer next to the patient's bed. Calling for backup. If only the crazy didn't rip off her IV she would've been able to easily calm her down with some sleep medication.

Now it was impossible to catch her as she ran all over the hospital room not letting the nurse get close enough. She was like a wild monkey jumping up and down the bed and furniture in the room,

Three men approached her after entering the room. Wang Yu Yan was very active and well trained as she had to be, as a princess. The three men and woman could not catch her even with an hour gone in their pursuit.

After a tiresome struggle to catch the patient, the nurse decided to take a breather and opted to leave the hospital room. She should've followed her fellow nurse when she left an hour ago, she thought to herself. The three men had still not given up as the nurse looked at them with pity.

Upon her opening of the door, she met a very handsome man dressed in a custom-fit suit. He towered over her as she had to raise her head to get a full view of him in such proximity, "Out of my way", his voice commanded. The nurse didn't know if she moved because of fear or because she was in a trance.

Wang Yu Yan had tried with all her might to avoid being caught by the bad guys. She knew the two women weren't to be trusted. Not even a few minutes later they proceeded to bring more of their men.

Surely they couldn't hide their true colors for long. Wang Yu Yan however was growing tired of being chased and no matter how much she planned it. She didn't see a way for her to escape.

Even if she succeeded to leave the room she didn't know what awaited her outside this wall.

It's him! Wang Yu Yan froze as another man walked through the door.

Her moment of distraction gave the three-man an advantage as they all simultaneously pounced on her.

Wang Yu Yan quickly got out of their way jumping from the soft chair she stood on, stepping on the back of one of the currently hunched-backed pursuers.

After she landed she raced all the way to the other side of the room. She wrapped her arms around the waist of the man and hid behind him. Like a child hiding behind their parent's back.
