" Robert" A voice called out softly to him. He looked up as he wondered who called. The voice was tender, loving but bold enough to shake him up.
He sat upon his bed, his eyes scanning the dim room as a candle gave him light, his body endowed with so much guilt.
"Robert" The voice called out softly again, soft and gently this time as its sound brought pleasure to his ears.
He surveyed around again, his body so tense that his eyes flickered around, the darkroom so difficult to see through.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps approaching him as he laid on the bed. Robert narrowed his eyes as he stirred to see the figure approaching him. A cold sensation suddenly filled his room as an unimaginable wonderful fragrance compressed his room, that scent that he felt deep in
Diala stared at her reflection, replenished with smiles as her eyes blazed dreamy, her dimples so obvious that her face flushed in red. She sat still, the maids carefully adorning her head with beautiful jewelry benefitting for royalties.Today she will be handed over to Robert as his wife. Beaming with smiles, she glanced out of her window as she waited for his arrival. Her hair was beautifully combed in a lovely way. She wore a beautiful red gown with lovely rose designs and lace on it, her face made so charming as one of the maids applied lipstick on it making her lips shine red in charisma."My lady, you look so beautiful" Berta complimented as she smiled at the beautiful princess before her."Berta is right my lady, King Robert won't be able to let his eyes off you the moment h
A powerful fragrance filled his nostrils as he opened the door to his room. He looked around as the intended fragrance crammed him, a dim light stood on the table along with another candlestick. Robert stepped into his chamber, slowly, he closed the door behind him, his eyes surveying the beautifully adorned room. He looked further and sighted Diala who sat on the bed waiting patiently for him. His hazel eyes pierce her body, she wore a silk robe which made her stunning to look at. Her hair let loose as it flew down her shoulders, she sat still, looking so quiet and vulnerable. Indeed she loomed so beautifully enough to tempt any man and she isn't just anybody but his wife. Tonight is the night of their wedding, the night every man is destined to deflower his wife. Make love as they await the birth of their child, in every possible way they can.
Taking his horse, Robert galloped out of the kingdom that night, the moon giving him utterance to see through. He must find this lady tonight so that he can understand himself perfectly. He rode deeper, leaving touching his cloak as they moved to the touch of the gentle night breeze. Lubricating his wet lips, Robert rode further, his eyes scanning around as the path became clearer and easy for him to go through.The chirping sound of birds echoed, as the night birds made creepy noises that made the atmosphere so tense that it made Robert alert, the whine of his horses mixing with the night sounds.As he got deeper, surprisingly, the woods became familiar to him, unlike the last time. His horse curtailed its pace as Robert glanced around with wonders in his heart. Getting towards a huge tree, his horse halted, Robert got down from it, his clo
The cold night breeze blew around him as he looked out of his window with an aggravated expression, his forehead twisted in resentment.Fabian glanced to the open palace, his hand over his chin as he stroked his beards slowly with narrowed eyes, thoughts going through his mind.With a stuffed vision, he turned away from the window and began to pace around the room, his hand still on his chin."No!" He exclaimed to himself, his face solidified in anger as fury began to rise in him.The thought of his half-brother Robert filled his mind. He so much hated him with every vein in him, his sight was like a poisonous stare to him as he wanted nothing but to get rid of him by all means.Fabian wa
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.
Heavy footsteps were heard approaching the throne room, a cold sensation filled the atmosphere, the ray of sunlight penetrate through a window nearby causing brightness in the room. Fabian was seen seated on his throne, a hand on his beard as he stroked gently, his eyebrows squeezed in a frown as his other hand tapped the edge of his throne in an uneasy nature. Nicholas appeared alongside four other soldiers, in each hand were swords sharp enough to slice through any mortal, young or old. They had a stern expression on their face, their second hand clenched into a fist. "Any news Nicholas?" Fabian asked in a harsh tone, impatience in his voice. The huge soldier stepped c
Louis enlarged eyes fixed on the rumored dead king as he could not believe that he was present gazing at him. Robert quickly put on his disguise and walked towards him giving him a sign not to say a word, "It is I Louis, I am alive, not dead and I need your help" He said to the bewildered soldier who couldn't get his eyes off him. "But" Louis managed to say, his eyes scanning Robert in deep surprise, "King Robert if you are alive, why did your kingdom declare you dead?" He inquired with a confused expression. "There is no time to explain Louis, I need you to go over to my Kingdom as a spy and get every information necessary, I need to take back the throne from my brother at all means, and having my identity kept a secret is what I want from you" Robert ket out to the confused soldier
The sound of shattered glass drew her as she walked into the house, her eyes broadened in surprise as her eyes caught Robert standing firmly beside the table pouring himself a cup of tea, the smell of mint evaporated all over the room.Robert turned to her, a smile on his face as he handed her a cup, "Good to see you again Merga" he confessed with a smile still on his face.Merga stood still in surprise, she looked at his body with massive eyes, shocked at how fast he was recovering more than ever. Slowly, she glanced up at him, his face was a bit brightened, unlike the last night, his weak eyes, stronger than before and his smile so lovely that it made his appearance so stunning that a huge wave swept through Merga."You are getting stronger than I ever imagined" She confessed taking the cup from him.
The sound of music was heard from afar mixed with the roar of men in merry.The palace of Linerdo was filled with boisterous jingle and laughter of men as servants outside the palace whispered to themselves in clear disbelief as the death of the past king baffled them.Inside the throne room sat Fabian on the throne along with king Lionel and King Alexandra as they replenish themselves with intoxicated wine and food of all kinds as they celebrate in unity."Helping you get charge of the throne was the perfect idea we have ever done in a long time. You are a man of your word King Fabian, you can't imagine how much profits and money I have embelleze within this period" King Lionel exclaimed in a loud voice, a golden glass of wine in his hand as he revealed his set of yellow teeth laughing cowardly.
Mother Elanor sat softly with a ball of knitting wool and its pin in her hands, her eyes fixed on it as she looked up at the window nearby.The door behind her opened, Merga proceeded out with a bag hung over her shoulder, the chirping sound of birds filling her ears."I have to go now Mother, i will be back soon," she said walking towards the door, her hair tied tenderly as it touched her waist, she wore a pair of long pants and a white shirt along with a boot, her footstep filling the house as she rested her hand on the doorknob."Merga" Mother Elanor called out to her.Mega turned to the older woman wondering what she had on her mind, "Yes mother?" She implored, raising an eyebrow.
The morning sun-scorched on Merga, her red hair twinkling to the ray of the sun. She looked forward, her eyes fixed on the door of the wood house before her, she walked closer, opened it, and stepped into the silent house.Entering, she turned her gaze to Robert who was still asleep, his eyes closed as he slept peacefully. She scanned him curiously as she walked closer to him, holding a bag hung over her shoulder. Her eyes softened, her stare fixed on the stunning king before her. She can't deny the fact that even with the bruises on his skin, he still looked handsome, his thick eyebrows, dazzling eyelashes, and cheekbones perfectly created, indeed he was a masterpiece of nature.She couldn't explain why she felt this force drawing him closer to her, she has tried getting this weird feeling off her but she seems not to know what they are or how she
Sweat trickled down his face as he glanced around, his heart beating faster than ever, his enlarged eyes scanning the darkroom as the sounds of crickets filled his ears.Robert breathed deeply, the images in his dream kept flashing in his mind. He laid still as his heart couldn't decide on what's happening, the beaten man in his dream is him. The sight of it was so terrifying that his body exploded in great pain, "what's wrong?" He asked himself, his eyes flickered around looking puzzled.The unknown men in his dreams were his main concern, who are those men? What do they want from him? Why were they all covered in black? Why is the beaten man's face just like his? Why couldn’t we see the faces of the attackers?All these questions passed through his mind as more sweat dripped down touching
Darkness overshadowed everywhere as the sound of a mighty waterfall was heard roaring down with full force and speed. A chirping sound of a bird was heeded from the distance, suddenly, it became louder as a thousand birds came together pouring out their wrath. A tremendous roar of a raging beast echoed, its body jerking in utmost power.Suddenly, the cloud became dark, thick black smoke covering it as a bolt of fierce lightning passed through the sky accompanied by a powerful thunder which shook the ground in utmost sovereignty, the chirping sound of the birds became louder, the waterfall intense as the roaring sound of the angry beast became terrible mixed with the mighty growl made by the flaring thunder. Each sound became boisterous and so severe as the ground exploded with fierce power, raw liquid fire emitted from it, instantly a horrendous pain cut through the chest as thousands of anguish erup
The smell of rotten rats filled the air, light emitted from a little window of the dungeon as Diala is seen pacing around, her mind filled with thoughts. The cry of the older queen alerted her, she glanced at the crying queen as she stuck her face with a napkin, more years pouring out.With a heavy heart, Diala walked towards her, a tear dropped from her eye, quickly she cleaned it so as not to appear weak in front of the queen. She bent down towards Queen Arundel who looked up at her with a face soaked in tears." My queen, please be strong, '' Diala let out with pain in her voice, her eyes fixed on the older queen.Queen Arundel trembled around, her body still in shock at the mention of her son's death, she looked up at Diala whose sad eyes held so much sorrow.
