JOAN’S POVStephen was working about in the kitchen, cleaning the floor while chatting freely with some of the maids. She does not work in the kitchen but sometimes they are requested to sweep and clean it when the kitchen is short of staffs.Seeing her freely chatting with others when she was vehemently angry at me really pulled a string from my heart. I wanted everything to be back to normal but she was been so difficult and childish if you ask me. Anger was starting ti boil up in me but I tried as much as I could to press it down before stepping into the kitchen.“Hey” I greeted the head chef who was the first to see me and then everyone else. I noticed how everyone threw a small hi and hellos except Stephen who faced her work with much more concentration after she realised I was the one who walked into the kitchen.I dropped the cups where a few maids were washing some cutleries and made my way to where the head maid stood. “Good morning” she greeted giddily, swaying her hip and h

JOAN’S POVWhat was I thinking? Why on earth do I have to show him I care. Now I have make a total fool of myself in front of him. I honestly couldn’t deny the fact that the food taste like heaven. It’s been so long I tasted something as richly made as this. I have resisted the urge to moan in total bliss for quite a number of times when he was seated in front of me. How I wish I could savor that taste forever. Immediately he left the room, I continued eating, now my previous thought of how in hell he manage to finish this lot of food clarified. The food is just so delicious and tasty you could get lost in it. I really need to give that head chef a thump up for her blessed hands.I did not finished the food but I sure as heck are more than half of it. When I was done, I had to struggle with my filled up stomach before I could get up from the seat. I made a few trip around the room just to get myself to be comfortable enough to get back on my work track. After a few to and fro betw

JOAN’S POVNight time came in a jiffy and when I was finally done with the work I called upon myself, the moon is high up in the sky with the stars sprinkled around it.Surprisingly, nothing around the room pointed out to me who the owner of the room was. Apart from the dresses here and there, and some jewelries. Nothing personal was in the room. I even tried opening all the drawers, toilet, closet, nothing. Nothing point out who once lived in this room.I gave up my search when it became progressively tiring, instead, I focused on cleaning and leave when I was done. Not before trying to open up the other room of course. But for my own good, it was locked.After returning the cleaning supplies back to the supply room. I stopped by the kitchen hoping to get me dinner before going to bed. I thought that probably all the workers had long gone and I will have to fix something myself, but surprisingly a few workers were still around.Some watching dishes, others cleaning surfaces and putt

JOAN’S POVI ended up falling asleep that night with so many things going on through my mind. Someone else would have not easily understood his problem but I was his mate so it was easy for him to point that out.I stood outside his door for more than half an hour and he made no move to go to bed, I concluded my answer. He neither does not sleep at night or he was currently going through a hard faze in life or both.Due to the fact that I slept late, i woke up late, finding him to have already bath and was just casually sitting in his room. The bags under his eyes are still there and so was his tiredness. The bed too was still as well made as new.“You took your time” he said immediately I stepped into the room.“yes of course or you want me to take yours” I sarcastically answered in my head but in reality I said.“I deeply apologise for the lateness your highness. I seemed to have lost track of time” I curtsied.He was taken aback by my polite reply but he quickly masked it up with h

“I want you to tell your mate that you are sterile” my mother’s words had taken most part of my reasons even though it has been hours since she uttered them.Like always I tried to wiggle my way out of her demands but this time around she was adamant and not ready to consider any of my excuses. She was hell bend in seeing that I informed Joan of my condition or rather the curse inflicted on me.I also wanted to tell her about it and lift the weight off my shoulder but I just couldn’t bring myself to tell her. I would never admit this out loud, not even to my mother but I was scared. Scared she might run off forever if she found out I won’t be able to make her pregnant. I am scared she might flee just like my ex Luna if I told her she will be childless for the rest of her life if she stayed with me.I know that I will have to tell her the truth one day but just not now. In other to, I will have to be ready and brace myself for any action she was going to take but my mother wasn’t going
