Diala smiled dreamily as the thoughts of last night filled her, she was so involved by his sudden loving act towards her. She glanced at the bed beside her, her lips stretched into a brighter smile, the way he made love to her was so tender as her emotions went wild with passion, every breath of ber wanted to seize at that moment, a wave of ecstasy rushed through her as his lips on her made her feel so alive. Finally, she is a woman, a woman fit enough to beat his child and the heir of the kingdom. The way he touched her, held her tightly to himself, whispered words to her ears was so surprising to her. Does he love her now? Is he attracted to her physics, does he think about her the way she does? Everything was so baffling to her. She looked up at Berta who dressed her hair tenderly as she applied flower oil on it, her dark hair glowing in its beauty.
"You look so happy my queen" Berta
The cricketing sound of the night filled his ears as sleep stood far away from him. It's been a week since his last encounter with the strange lady in the woods. He glanced at his empty bed, Diala had moved to her chamber so he had enough time to himself. He tossed around the bed unable to sleep, the thought of the lady filled his mind. He still has unanswered questions which he badly needs a response, he glanced out of the window, the moon shone at Its highest crest.Unable to withstand this anymore, he got out of his bed, wore his cloak and walked out of the palace, climbed his horse as he galloped deep into the woods, the cries of night birds filling his ears.He rode deeper, his long hair flowing to the touch of the night breeze. After a whole ride, he got to the place they met the last time, his eyes scanning around as he looked for her. Robert got down fr
The noise of roaring feet stamped out of the kingdom heading north with full force. Robert rode faster as the sun shone triumphantly scorching him with intense heat, the sound of birds filled his ears as he rode faster heading towards the kingdom of Nema.Leaving the palace, he made sure that no one except his mother knew of his journey. Although he didn't tell her his purpose for the mission, Robert assured her that he will discuss it all with her once he returns. Ever since Louis and his men left his palace yesterday, he couldn't get the thought off his mind. a traitor in the palace? he couldn't believe that someone is plotting his downfall and he must do everything within to hold onto what belongs to him. Never will he let go of his kingdom to another, Never!.His horse galloped faster as his cloak flew behind him in dismay. He wore a cape over
Robert's vision broadened in shock, an image flashed through his mind as his whole body shook in anxiety. The image Of the girl deep in the woods flared through his head, her sparkling green eyes which held so much stiffness when she talked, her red lips moved to the rhythm of the heartbeat.His hazel eyes flickered with so much shock as he stared at the old woman, "A witch?" He mumbled with indecisive emotions.Mother Wakilimati nodded in affirmative, "Yes a witch, meet her and she will help you because a great war is coming your way. That is all I can say to you, there is no other one to help you apart from her" she stated stiffly, slowly she stood up, the stick in her hand for support. A gentle breeze came into the room through the small window beside them, adding more sensation into Robert who stood up facing the old woman.
Merga's eyes ossify as she glared at Robert with malignant eyes, her hair swinging to the touch of the wind as each vein in her exploded in huge anger. Quickly, she tried redrawing her hand from his grip but couldn't, a frown appearing on her face. She drew her face closer to his, their nose almost touching, her eyes blazing in fury, "Help you?" She asked, raising an eyebrow as her forehead squeezed in outrage, "Never will I do such nonsense!" She growled in fervor, " After what your father did to my people, you come to me asking for help and you think I will help you? Answer me!" She howled, her green eyes blazing in so much anger."Your people do not deserve any help from me and least before you forget" her eyes lessened but a frown overwhelmed her face, "Witches have nothing to do with humans. Your father classified us as evil, blood-sucking monsters,s and descendants of the devil!" She let out with so
The sound of approaching feet filled the huge room as the sound came nearer drawing attention.King Lionel frowned as the figure became clearer, his mustache added more to his aggressive look."Prince Fabian, what do I owe this unannounced visit? Did your brother send you to me?" King Lionel inquired with irritation in his voice.Fabian grinned as he approached the King who sat on his throne surrounded by beautiful half-naked ladies danced around him in delight as they fed him grapes and strawberries from the golden plate."It's an honor seeing you King Lionel" Fabian let out with a grin, his two hands parted as a sign of peace, his eyes fixed on the King."I came here f
Robert sat still In his chamber, his head occupied by different thoughts. He glanced at the scrolls on his table as he breathed heavily. It has been 7 days since his last encounter with Merga who refused to help him with his task, he hasn't heard from her and has also refused to summon her, he must find a way to solve this himself. A rumor about him trying to make life unbearable for the masses by increasing the rate of taxes flared up like wildfire as his officials came to him complaining about the noble's outburst towards his reign as king.This thought and the invasion of a traitor filled his mind and his head spinning around in worry.He picked up a scroll, opened it, and realized it was a message from King Rison of Layna. As he read through it, he remembered he sent words across to the king days ago stating his interest in trading in his king
Robert narrowed in deep shock, his eyes still fixed on Nicholas who gazed at him with a harsh expression. Still overwhelmed, he slowly turned back to Fabian who stood, his face showing no sign of pity. Embodied with awe, Robert looked around at the men who surrounded him with weapons in their hands, ready to attack. Gradually he turned back to Fabian as he realized what had happened, he needed no one to tell him, the words of the old woman at Nema are true including the observations made by Louis and his men."Why are you doing this Fabian?" He inquired, his eyes softened as a deep pain pierced his heart, he was betrayed by the ones he trusted the most.A wicked laugh escaped from Fabian, he walked towards Robert who sat on his horse not able to remove his stare from his bim."Why a
Fabian stared at the dead body of Robert which was covered in thick blood, a look of disgust crept through his face. He turned to the soldiers who looked at each other with fulfilledeyes.Fabian walked back to his horse as he placed his sword by his side, he stood still scanning the area, his eyes shining nothing but pure wickedness.His gaze settled on a spot a few feet away and an assuring thought settled on his mind."Nicholas!" He called out to the huge black man.Turning to Fabian with his hands soaked with blood, Nicholas stepped closer to the prince, "My lordship" he bowed in reference.Fabian looked at the other men beside him, "Take his body and bury
