FENUGREEK:

I have seen fenugreek being consumed the most when a girl get's her first period or when she becomes a new mom. It's soaked in the water overnight and drunk or a medicine is prepared where fenugreek is the main ingredient. The reason behind this is that it reduces period pain and it's given to nursing women after they had a baby because studies have shown that it enhances milk production in new mothers.

Fenugreek has also got antidiabetic properties that control blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity. As a pain reliver it helps in soothing muscle pain and childbirth pains.

Since it reduces blood sugar level, we have to be cautious as we do not want it to dip too low.

CHAPTER 12 – THE CHILDREN


"What are you going to do about her?" Brody demanded, watching her. Aware of his gaze, Cyane pretended to study the graffiti art on the wall.

It took her a moment to understand what was the art about. Until she made out the words which read 'FUCK ROYALTY.' To give further emphasis to their thoughts, there was an artwork of throne-like seat, which was set on fire!

She was a royal and she knew it was offensive but if the photo was done for the reigning royal family of Aelius, then Cyane completely agreed with their thoughts.

"I have got a call from Sire. He wants me and Grayson to come to his office now. I have to leave. Can you take care of her until then?" Xanthos asked Brody.

"Umm... I am going to the gym and later to the arena. You want me to take her there with me?" Brody looked stunned.

Through the corner of her eyes, Cyane watched Xanthos shrug as a reply and then say, "Try contacting her brother."

"Yeah. Okay. Hey, you have got any idea what the meeting is about?" Brody enquired.

"None as of now" Grayson replied, before asking, "Where's Miki?"

"No idea. He said he had some work and just left. He wouldn't say anything else" Brody frowned. "Are you sure about me taking her to the gym? Guys would be staring at her" Brody murmured lowly, but Cyane could hear him loud and clear.

"Then give them a reason why they shouldn't!" With that said, Xanthos left while Grayson and Brody chuckled.

"See you later" Grayson slapped Brody's arm and turned to leave. However, when he saw Cyane on the stairs, he waved at her.

When he walked off, Cyane descended the stairs and saw him getting into an SUV. Xanthos was already in the driver's seat and Cyane furrowed her brows, disliking the thought of him leaving her here alone.

He was going to meet the king. Why was King so important to him? Didn't he realize the King was a bad man?

Lowering the window, Xanthos turned to look at her. His face remained expressionless while Cyane openly scowled at him. His eyes then flickered towards Brody and after nodding once at his friend, he drove off.
