A hundred and one thoughts ran through his mind. There was no telling what would happen if anyone was to come into his room now. Quickly,he dashed to his door and making sure that he had locked it properly,he returned to the dead body on the floor.Felix definitely did not die that night. His skin had turned dark with his tissues shrunk as it was so evident by how his face looked. The odour that emanated from his body was so bad that the chief guard placed his palms firmly over his nose. He was still caught up in the web of fear that had made him unable to move. Beads of sweat were beginning to run down his face.He had wanted Felix dead but going by the turn out of event,he did not know if it was something he wanted to happen.One thing was for sure, someone else wanted him dead and the person had succeeded but what he could not understand was why the person had placed the corpse on the floor of his room.The chief guard was so confused that he could not think of what to do. His thro
The nights that had followed after Elsa went with Felix to see the mysterious mam with the sweet smelling cologne had become warmer and they didn't have to worry about going out with cloaks to see him or rather,she didn't have to. A day had passed after their last meeting with him and she was still trying to get him off her mind.He had established body contacts with her by marely brushing his hands over her back and coming so close to her that she could hear him breath. Felix had frowned at it but this man kept insisting that he came with her.Every night when they returned to the palace,she found her self restless moving from one side to the other of her bed as she fantasized and dreamt dreams about her and the mysterious man.Elsa's fantasy where going to come to pass. That was what he made her think. In one of the meetings when Felix h
"Why did you make me witness his death?" she said to him amidst her weeping. She expected him to give her a response or at least do something but he stood there as if he had not heard her speak."Why did you betray my trust? I gave you everything you asked for. I gave you my self too" she said to him with a voice that was now cracked as a result of her crying."I need to do away with you as soon as possible" was the only thing he finally said to her ."You cannot be so cruel" she said to him." It is obvious that you do not know the man in front of you."he said with a grin." What are you going to do with me?" She asked in fear as she saw him bring out a piece of cloth from his pocket."I am definitely going to end you. Your time is up"
Cosmo tried to comport himself but the smile on the council man's made him uneasy."Why have I been summoned!" He inquired from the guards." All information will be made known to you once you see the king"replied the council man." You must learn to know your place. I did not direct any question to you"said Cosmo giving the council man a hostile look." You shouldn't keep the king waiting" said the council man.Cosmo gave him a mean stare before he shut his door and left for the court room. They followed from behind with no one uttering any word.As they walked down the hall ways, Cosmo's mind wandered off. He was lost in his thoughts. The fear that he had been disc
A guard rushed into the court panting. He handed a scroll to the advisor after paying his respect to everyone in the council and then be left.The king's advisor went through it carefully ignoring the piercing eyes of the council men who were eager to know what was contained in the scroll. The advisor sighed before he finally declared."The kingdom is under attack!" The noise intensified and it made the king gnash his teeth."What is becoming of this kingdom" yelled one of the council men and it made the noise more intensified. "There is trouble even in the palace" screamed a young council man much younger than the one that had been taunting Cosmo."Silence every one. There is no time for this. We will need to mobilize the troops as soon as possible. The Gefta clan has given us a big blow and the time is righ
"You work too much,in few weeks time you will be due for delivery. You should consider taking a break to prepare" said one of the nicest customers who bought materials from the shop where Yennifer worked.She was a middle aged woman with the nicest of smiles and kindest of attitudes. She would drop by sometimes even when she did not need any supplies to spend sometime with Yennifer. She knew how boring it was to work all alone in a shop. In their discuss,they talked about parenting,weening and other similar things. She never bothered Yennifer with the question of who was responsible for her pregnancy because she found it quite appropriate. To the best of her knowledge,Yennifer was a nice girl and that was enough for her to be kind to her. There was also a Mrs Bee. She was the young mistress to one of the most influential men in the kingdom. She loved the materials from John's shop and so she stoppe
"What do you want from me" I asked him as i quickly picked up the things that were on the ground."Dear Yennifer,it is wrong to think that you can hide from me. I must commend that you are a smart woman. No wonder the king was at ease when you were with him".When he said this,it made my heart skip. His words also flattered me. This man knew more than I thought he knew and the fact that he did not want me out of his sight made me begin to think. There were chances that he was sent by the king or he could be here for his selfish motives."Who are you?" I questioned trying to keep up a brave countenance."A brave woman indeed. You are everything any king would need
I wanted to move away from the door but fear had gotten strong hold of my legs. It was as if my feet were glued to the entrance of John's house. Goose bumbs took dominion over my fragile soft skin. I could not imagine what was going on inside the house. Whoever the lady was,I hoped that she was safe and no harm had come to John as well.The footsteps became much closer and I could hear my heart beat. It was as if it had an amplifier connected to it. Shadows could be seen appearing larger and larger thanks to the dimly lit lights from John's living room.I could see another shadow emanate from behind the one which was coming close to the door. There were muffing sounds as it was clear that the lady was gasping for air. One minute I had thought that it had something to do with John but then a thought came to my mind. It could have been the mysterious man. He might have lost patience and had come for John. The thought scared me but it still could not explain why there was a woman in t
