Jamila walked to the women that sat together in the common area. By their coloring, she knew that Tequila, the mother of Uthman's son was there. And also, there was a younger one. She had learnt from her time at the Palace that Amir was interested in her. Tequila's sister, her name was Dream. Jamila could not even understand why their names were so odd, they did not seem like names that normal people answered. It was good that she did not name the Prince with some of all those odd names.Jamila smiled as she walled towards them and they stood up. She could hear the younger white girl gasp in surprise.Jamila glowed because she knew the exact reason she gasped. She was clearly in awe of her beauty."My Queen," the two maids said and they bowed to her. Her threat had certainly gone round. Jamila smiled and looked at them."Why thank you," Jamila said to them."So your mistress is no longer the Queen, how sad," Jamila said and she touched the hair of one of the maids, and then she looked
Chapter 41- The Awoken Sleeping Lion.Tequila moved closer to Uthman as he held her and kissed her lips. Being so close to him reminded her of home. The stress of the past weeks was affecting Uthman and just being able to be with Tequila was like the solution to all of his problems. Tequila held him close and roamed her hand around his body, she just wanted to have a feel of him. Uthman's mouth left hers and began to nibble on her face and her neck.Tequila moaned as he bit on a particularly sensitive spot. She was getting more aroused and she wanted to touch him more when a knock sounded on Uthman's door. The both of them broke out of each other's embrace immediately out of shock.Uthman moved closer to her and whispered into her ear."Not now habibi, later, in my room," Uthman said to her. Tequila felt anticipation as she heard his words. She could not wait to go to his room later."Who is that?" Uthman said to the person that knocked then. Tequila cleared her throat and went to sit
Tequila was in the library when Aisha rushed in."Ms Tequila, something has happened. We need to go to the royal infirmary," Aisha said. The look on her face screamed panic and she was clearly worried about something."What is it? What is the problem?" Tequila asked she was already on her feet and ready to move."Let us go," Aisha said and dragged her out of the library. Tequila followed the maid and let her move the both of them to the infirmary.They both got to there and Tequila gasped at the sight that met her. She almost fell down.It was her son, Dream and Amir all lying down on the beds looking lifeless. They were all on drip and dressed in the white clothing."What happened?" Tequila asked. Tears gathered in her eyes and she moved close to her sister. She was sleeping and her eyes were not open."They took in poison. It was in their drinks. We have managed to remove all the poison from their system. They were brought here very quickly and so it was not fatal. They will be awa
Uthman walked down the hall with Tequila, holding her by the hand. They both went to the infirmary together. He was worried about his son, when he saw Uthman, he looked so lifeless and weak and that was why the King was angry at himself and started drinking.When they got into the room, Dream was awake and seated on the bed and Uthman jnr was beside her."Mama!" Uthman jnr said as he saw Tequila. His voice was not nearly as enthusiastic as it usually was, but Uthman was just grateful that he was talking."My baby," Tequila said and rushed to hold her child."Who was the maid that served the drinks? You should hold her and make her confess who gave her the poison," Amir said. He was on his feet and walking out of the bathroom. The man had clearly woken up with a vengeance."I will do that immediately," Uthman said, his mind had not gone to that area, and he was too busy wallowing in his own misery to think of how to solve the problem."You should. We have something to talk about," Ami
"The person that tried to poison Tequila was never caught, but the maid they delivered the drinks was sent out of the palace, and now the Sheikh wants to get engaged to someone else?" Dream asked Aliyah, and the maid nodded."You know all of this, you were there when they happened. Why are you still asking questions?" Aliyah asked."Oh I don't know. I am trying to wrap my head around this I guess. It is hard to imagine that all of this happened in this short period of time. I was so sure that Tequila and the Sheikh belonged to each other and that they would live happily ever after. I wanted them to live with their son and be happy, but there are so many complications. I can not even see a good ending in sight," Dream said with a sigh. She was quite tired of all the hurdles that they had to face."I can still see a happy ending for them. They fit each other so we'll you see. And the Sheikh is only getting engaged to Jamila because of the other Kings, he does not want to," Aliyah said a
Dream rushed with Aliyah to the party and she felt a thrill while she was there, she was scared that they would be caught and Tequila would be so disappointed in her, so would Amir.Aliyah and Dream mounted the buffet and she was able to watch the party from afar. It all looked so beautiful and nice. It did not look at all like a wedding that was not going to hold. Dream was not around for her own sister's engagement party but she saw how happy the people looked when her sister's engagement was called off, they would prefer Jamila. It will not be easy for the King to leave Jamila and come back for Tequila again. It will be quite hard for him to do that. Dream knew that it would take a while for the people to accept Tequila again, she just hoped that when the time eventually came, they would accept her."Princess Jamila does look very pretty today," Aliyah said and Dream's eyes landed on her. It was no question that she was a very beautiful woman, she had a wonderful fashion sense and
"She saw me Princess Jamila. I think she will tell the Prince, I will not be able to leave the palace as it is, people are all around searching for me," Abdul told Jamila and she rolled her eyes. He was one of the men that helped her in her plans. Her beneficiary made all of them available, and right now she was pissed by their inefficiency."Why did you have to show your face to her? You fucking moron!" Jamila shouted and the man cowered in front of her, good. She needed them all to respect her. She needed them to fear her so that they would do all that she wanted and so that she would be Queen, she would have all the attention that she desired, and if all things worked well, she would be the most feared Queen in the Middle East."I am sorry Ma, I am so sorry," Abdul begged. He was on his knees and his head was touching the ground.Jamila tutted in disapproval."Well you have to do something to fix that. How many people saw you?" Jamila asked him."Well, Amir and the American girl th
Jamila was not at ease, she would not be at ease until Abdul was out of the palace for good. She had a very terrible feeling that Abdul would be caught and things would go south for her. Delilah only managed to calm her down at the moment but her anxiety was back again, she could not lose, she could not afford to be caught, she needed to be Queen by all means necessary. She was going to be the Queen, nothing would stop her, not the careless servant that did not remember to cover his face, not Uthman's little son, and certainly not the American mistress, she would be Queen."Are you done yet?" Jamila asked Delilah as she came out of the room. She had previously been pacing back and forth the corridors as Delilah and another of her trusted maids had been getting Abdul ready to leave."Yes Princess Jamila, I am done," Delilah said with a smile and stepped away from the door for Jamila to enter into the room. Jamila looked at Delilah's eyes, she looked very confident. It was something tha
