“My queen…” Leonna tried to say when the queen cut in at once.“Have you lost your mind Leonna? Are you crazy? How dare you speak when I haven’t told you to? What makes you think I was referring to you?” She asked.Leonna looked away, she just felt even more confused than she already was, she actually thought that the queen was referring to her little did she know that it was actually Carmella here who have set fire on her cheeks with just a slap, she didn’t even know if she should scream or just sob quietly cause she just didn’t understand what exactly she did to deserve such treatment, she could recall that she greeted her in the most polite way possible, why is she so suddenly concerned about been addressed as a princess or a queen when she isn’t even married to the king yet “I am sorry my queen” she bowed her head hoping she would be asked to leave at once cause she was so tired of standing there and watch Carmella insult her nonstop, she just hoped that the queen wouldn’t side he
The king had stepped out of Leonna’s room looking so ready to confront Carmella, he just couldn’t believe that he wasn’t even married to her yet and she is already making the palace uncomfortable for the maidens that lived within, that was certainly what he would never tolerate no matter what, he was almost at the throne room when he bumped into Terry who looked eager to see him, he looked up at him and shrugged wondering what was going on with him “why are you here?” He asked.“Greeting my king, I went to check our trap and it caught something huge, praise be to the gods, I equally checked on Diana and…” he tried to say when the king quickly placed his finger over his lips as a sign that he shouldn’t say another word, he took a glance at his left and right, quickly he yanked Terry by the arm and dragged him out of the hallway down to his room, Terry did not expect any of that but he had no other choice but to cooperate. They got to his room, the king pointed to a chair “sit down Terr
The day was gradually looking brighter with every second that sweeps by, the palace maidens went about their various suitors, the pots in the kitchen were smoking hot as the maidens in the kitchen were busy preparing breakfast. Birds could be heard chirping from the tree tops, the chimneys were burning gradually making the whole house warmQueen Emma nodded looking away, she didn’t have anything else to say other than to listen and wait for Carmella to tell her the reason why she came after her just immediately she left their house though she didn’t leave on a good note, she readjusted on her throne looking a little impatient, she took a glance at Carmella who took more sips from the cup of juice from the look on her face it was obvious that she was enjoying every taste of it, she looked up at the queen whim seemed a little lost in thoughts, she sighed out loud clearing her voice while thinking of a way to start saying what she wanted to say “my queen…” she began putting up a warm smi
Truly, there was nothing more painful than seeing the man you love, the one whom you have spent your entire childhood and teenage days fantasizing about glare at you with so much disgust written in his eyes, there was nothing more painful than watching him hate you helplessly, most times she wonders if her sister had casted a spell on him making it so impossible for him to honestly love another, she believed confidently that getting rid of Diana was her only available ticket in getting the king to herself little did she know that her plan have failed and right now reality is honestly staring her at the face and she is scared that she might end up being exposed if her would be husband eventually brings Diana back, she could see her doom watching her from beneath its brow getting ready to swallow her if an opportunity to do so comes knocking at her door, she couldn’t deny how excited her marriage to Joshua have made her, finally she would be addressed as royalty and possibly the next qu
‘Are you really that horrible Carmella?’ he asked looking disgusted by her presence.She gasped ‘I beg your pardon my king.’‘No! don’t even beg my pardon yet you whore, as if the one you have done isn’t enough, you have the guts to do another’ he said in anger.Carmella was totally thrown into confusion by his words, she just couldn’t understand what she have done and why he isn’t going straight to the point already, but how would she dare to tell the king that he was wasting her time, being on his good side is all she wants at this moment and provoking him more than he already is, that’s certainly the very last thing at the back of her mind ‘your majesty? What exactly have I done wrong this time around? Tell me what it is and I would humbly apologize’ she said wearing a long face.He chortled “save me that horrible acting skills and tell me exactly why you have sworn to be so cruel’ he yelled with rage burning through his eyes.She shook her head in confusion ‘in all honesty my king
How dare you accuse me of having something to do with my maid? Have you lost your mind Carmella?’ he yelled angrily.‘Trust me my king, you gave me no choice otherwise why would you choose to embarrass me in front of the palace just to make her happy?’ she asked raising both brows.‘It’s obvious that you have lost both your mind and sense of reasoning else you would never say such thing to me, did you see her face? Did you at all feel any remorse after realizing that you ended up bruising her face so badly? You aren’t even my wife yet and you are already unleashing terror on the palace maidens, what would eventually happen after tomorrow? You would surely pull down the heavens I guess.’‘I did not hit her, that maiden is lying against me’ she said sounding so innocent.He walked closer wagging his forefinger at her ‘now let me warn you Carmella, the very next time something like this happens, the very next time you hit any of the maidens, I would have the guards lash you badly, I don
Denying that her chest is heavy with pain and her eyes bloodshot and clouded with tears was inevitable, she placed both of her hands on her chest walking like a mother who have just lost her child to the whirlwind, describing what she felt at that moment was impossible but she was sure that she was totally unhappy, she grieved silently while she walked deep into the woods trying to find her way home, she stopped moved closer to a tall coconut tree and rested her back on it and without restriction she burst into tears crying her heart out, should she actually regret starting this journey of having Joshua when it’s obvious that he would never treat her like a man should treat his wife? She covered her face with both of her hands sobbing nonstop into them, wetting them with her unending tears, she felt heartbroken that he could speak to her with so much rudeness without caring about her feelings, she wondered if she shouldn’t have dared dreamt of becoming Joshua’s wife not to talk of try
Charles parked his car at the almost empty garage of a complex, he looked excited and at the same time nervous, his hands shook slightly and Melanie couldn’t deny noticing them? But what could she say other than watch silently and pray that her plans come into ultimate perfection, she took a deep sigh watching Charles moved his hands gently on the car’s steering and finally bringing the car to a halt after he had parked it gently, he took a glance at Melanie and smiled with so much delight bubbling in his heart, he moved his hands gently towards her, with so much kindness sparking from his eyes, he moved her hairs gently placing them perfectly behind her ears, he reached even more closer planting a soft Kiss on her pink looking lips, Melanie couldn’t deny that she almost gave herself up to being caught by Charles but good enough she was smart to hide her shock and surprise behind a deceitful smile “you look so beautiful today…” she heard him say passionately, anyone who would over hea
Carmella left the room angrily, she walked into her room and met Leonna cleaning it, she went straight to her and grabbed her by the hair "you little bitch, you really want to reap where you did not sow huh?"Leonna groaned in pain totally unaware of what Carmella was talking about "what have I done?" She cried out."You want to become queen huh? You want me to bow at your feet?" She yelled pushing her to the wall.Leonna hit her head on the wall turning around slowly with her forehead bleeding slightly, their were equally blood stains on the wall, she could feel heavy headache on her head too, Carmella cared less about that her bleeding forehead "it would be over my dead body that I would allow you marry Terry, listen to me, you won't and would never marry him, he belongs to me and me alone, I have always been the one he loved, not some low life like you" she said wagging her finger at her.She shook her head sadly, she just couldn't believe that all the yelling was just because of T
The day was gradually coming to an end, Terry retired to his room, he had actually started occupying Joshua's chambers, he had sent for Leonna who arrived few minutes later standing by the door."Come in and shut the door..." He said on seeing her.Leonna was scared, she just didn't want to come anywhere close to him, never have she imagined that Terry was evil but today she witnessed him treat a wolf who have loved him like a brother like an enemy and that was something she wouldn't forget in a hurry, she shut the door and stood by it with her hands properly folded."Please sit,I want us to talk" he said."I don't want to, whatever you want to say, please say it now, I was busy before you sent for me" she said looking away.Terry sighed walking closer to her, he knew that she was angry with him, he cleared his throat "we have always liked each other alot and because of the rules guarding the palace, we couldn't show our feelings properly nor have a good relationship, when I said that
"What... What did you just say Azora?" Zara asked standing to her feet.Azora laughed "you haven't told them yet? How you were so jealous of your kid sister cause she married the man of your dreams and you decided to end her life just to have him all to yourself yet it took you so many years to get married to him, did you also tell them how you asked me for powers to get rid of her when she found out that she was still alive, how you went to poison her but ended up poisoning yourself, how you went the second time but disgraced yourself and showed your real face cause you always take the form of her human husband's personal assistant's face? She never eloped with a human just like she always claims, Diana is a survival of attempted murder by her own sister! and did you also tell them that you have pushed her off the cliff the second time? poor girl.. I doubt if she would survive this time around.""I survived...." Diana said walking into the throne room, her hands were dripping of blo
By the time he got to the palace, what he saw was what he didn't expect, someone else was sitting on her mother's throne and Terry sitting on his, could this be a dream or what?" He thought "what are you doing Terry? Why are you sitting on my throne?" He asked turning to see his mother, the queen, Zara,Maria and Leonna sitting on the floor."I don't get this Azora, this is not our agreement, why the hell would you ask a servant to sit on my husband's throne?" She yelled in anger."He has equal rights as your so called husband does and therefore deserves this throne better" Azora said with a proud smirk on her face.Joshua was shocked "and what is that supposed to mean? Would you get off that throne this minute!" He yelled at Joshua trying to grab him."If you dare touch me, trust me brother you wouldn't like what I would do to you, I have every right to be on this throne and if you're still so confused, maybe you should ask your beloved mother here" Terry said pointing at pointing at
Zara left her house at once without saying another word to Joshua, Leonna followed her at once,the king looked totally speechless, he turned to Diana "stay here, I would be right back."Diana shook her head in disapproval "I can't, I must go with you.""But it might be dangerous" he explained."I don't care, I am going with you" she said sadly grabbing his hand.The king sighed, it was truly obvious that he had no other choice but to allow her follow him just like she wants, few minutes after they left the palace, Joshua was feeling really pressed, so he asked Diana to wait for him under a tree while he goes to ease himself, while he was doing so Carmella crept from behind, she was actually on her way to her mother's house when she saw the king walking side by side with Diana holding her hands, he didn't notice her presence as he was backing her, Carmella grabbed a log of wood which was lying on the floor and hit it behind his head, Joshua fell on the floor and passed out at once, she
She arrived the palace and fear gripped everyone at once but before the guards in the palace could attack her, she bewitched them and made them bow at her feet while she grinned with so much delight feeling so fulfilled. Leonna was just done massaging Carmella's leg and had walked out of her room in tears when she noticed something awkward going on in front of the palace, she noticed a strange woman on a black rope chanting some words and making everyone bow at her feet, fear took grip of her and she fled at once to the back of the house running as fast as she could to inform the king of what was going on since she had seen him leave earlier and was so sure he had gone to see Diana and her mother.Carmella noticed a weird kind of silence and walked out of her room looking at each corner of the palace in fright, she could tell that something was wrong, she walked into the throne room and saw Azora standing there,she gasped and at the same time smiled walking majestically to stand in fr
At once he left his room to meet his mother and Carmella in the throne room, he tried greeting her to release him but she bluntly refused, for the first time he witnessed his mother swear over and over again to deal with Terry, she stood up pointing fiercely at her son “he brought that woman into this palace, she is not and will not be accepted here, I might spare her life and pardon her for what she did to the royal family, after all we have her elder sister here with us now to take her place but I would never accept her into this palace.”The king chortled “then get ready to loose your son and the king of this land” he said walking out on them.Queen Emma gasped in confusion.Carmella stood up and ran straight to her room shutting the door behind, she looked so upset, she turned the mirror and started summoning Azora and in no time she could see her image in the mirror , with so much bitterness behind her voice she told her all that was happening at that moment and Azora told her wh
Few hours later, they arrived the village and the palace in particular, the wedding ceremony have been conducted as people could be seen dancing and eating, Zara whose face was covered with sadness was about leaving the palace when she sighted Diana in the company of Terry, she gasped in shock “Diana!” She called out in a loud tone.That instant every where was silent, the music stopped, everyone turned around staring at Diana who looked totally confused, a palace guard ran into the palace building, the king, queen and Carmela were in the throne room when he came to inform them of the latest development, Carmella was the first to run out of the throne room to confirm what the guard had said, on stepping out she saw Diana standing beside Terry, it was obvious that he was the one that brought her back home “I knew it that he would do whatsoever it takes to ensure that my happiness is completely snatched away from me” she muttered feeling so upset, the queen and the king were soon outsid
Melanie had slept off in the hospital after having a good time with her daughter the previous day, she actually spent the night on the couch pondering over what Joshua had told her that evening especially about the wedding, she felt irritated and upset and wondered how many more evil people existed in the world if her own sister could go as far as wanting to marry her husband, her eyes gently went open when she heard footsteps approaching the ward, she felt really weak and her body ached a lot, she looked up and there stood the female doctor who have been taking care of her daughter, she smiled at her “good morning…” she greeted almost in a faint tone. The doctor smiled at her in response as they both stepped outside few minutes later to have a conversation after she was done checking on Brenda who was still very much asleep.Melanie cleared her voice “so when can we go home doctor?” She asked politely.“You’re free to go today, she’s okay, the least you can do is bring her twice ever
