~~~~~~~~GIDA CLAN OF THE CARRAN COMMUNITY******
"Galene hurry up we would be late to the stream if you keep wasting time" Diana called out to her friend placing her pot on the floor.
"I would soon be out Diana just a few more minutes to get all the water out from the pot" A meek voice replied from inside.
"Ok just be quick"
"Let's go" Galene said tapping her friend who was lost in her gaze. She blinked and stood up adjusting her corset.
" You are so beautiful Galene that at times I wonder if you were created by the goddess of beauty herself" Diana retorted and Galene gave out a soft Chuckle.
"Don't tell me you were fantasizing of me moments ago Diana" she laughed lightly
"Of course I was, I mean who wouldn't? Your beauty has no comparison and no lady could measure up to you; I'm really grateful you were my friend and I get to be seen with such a beauty as yours" she replied with a big smile plastered on her face.
"Common Diana you know you are as beautiful as the gods created you too. you shouldn't compare yourself to anyone" Galene muttered looking at her friend in disbelief.
She couldn't believe Diana could be comparing her to herself of course Diana is also beautiful.
Everyone is beautiful just the way they were created but her dearest Diana would never understand.
She would rather insist that Galene's beauty should not be considered as mere beauty but a work of art.
"The sun would soon be out, let's hurry up before the stream becomes stuffy" Galene said to her friend Diana who nodded in agreement.
"Look Galene, it's Zach" Diana chipped smiling at her friend as they both looked up at boy who was running towards them.
"Why are you smiling like that Diana? What are you thinking in that small brain of yours?" Galene asked staring suspiciously at her friend.
"Galene" he called immediately he reached their presence. "I heard from your mother that you had already left for the stream so I came running after you" he said breathing heavily.
"Yes the sun would be up soon so we have to be on our way now," she said and tried to leave but Zach held her back.
"Wait for Galene, I brought you this" he smiled and brought out a beautiful blue wristband "I saw it at the market yesterday and decided to buy it for you considering the color-matched your eyes" he grinned and she smiled collecting it from him.
"Thank you, Zach, but you didn't have to go that far to get me this," she said touching the wristband.
"It's nothing really, I just wanted to buy it for you; See it suits your skin as if the maker thought of you while making it" he said and I smiled. "I like it too," I said and he blushed
"We would be on our way now" Galene said and he nodded, turned to wave at Diana and walked off.
"Let me see" Diana shrieked clutching her hands and checking out the blue wristband. "Awwwww!!!!! Galene can't you see he likes you" she chipped and Galene frowned.
"Stop with your silliness Diana he just said he saw the wristband and thought it would suit me so he got it; when did you hear like from him," Galene said frowning.
"How would you explain a man who went to the market and bought a wristband for a lady who is not his sister" I keep telling you this but you wouldn't want to listen to me.
This guy loves you so much but he might be very shy to admit to you. I don't know why you would not listen to me and I keep explaining to you" she groaned.
"I don't know what you are talking about so can we go now? Galene asked walking and Diana shrugged and followed her.
They reached the stream and were grateful to have met it empty except for two ladies washing their clothes.
They seemed to be too engrossed in their talk as their hadn't noticed the presence standing few metres away from them as they come continued their gossip.
"She always carried herself as though she's more beautiful than everyone in this kingdom when she can't even afford a good dress like the rest of the maidens" One of the girl muttered.
"Her father even beats up her mother," the other girl said and they both laughed.
"The other day, I had seen her father falling around after drinking himself to stupor".
"Why so pathetic; was it her fault that you were born ugly or was it her fault no man looked at you and no one praised you," Diana said out loud and dragged out the girl who insulted her friend's mother.
"I would love to show you how to become beautiful," she said and the girl widened her eyes quickly nodded her head.
"You mean you will show me how she became beautiful?" The girl asked and Diana nodded.
"Do you not want to be beautiful just like my Galene?" Diana asked with a smirk.
Of course, I would love to be as beautiful as she looks even more than that" the girl said with a wide grin.
Galene tried to hold her laugh but couldn't, how foolish could she be to think Diana could make her beautiful.
"But why would you want to make me as beautiful as she is when you yourself aren't as beautiful as she is?" The girl asked staring suspiciously at Diana.
"You are the one who said you wanted to be as beautiful as Galene, not me. If I want to be then I would but since I do not want then I could make you so.
Do you not know I am gifted with some powers to enhance someone's beauty?" Diana bragged and Galene chuckled clamping her hands over her mouth to stop her from laughing out loud.
"Ok make me beautiful" the girl said and walked to Diana who in turn nodded and took her hands then began walking towards the water.
Diana smirked and suddenly pushed her into the middle of the stream "Take your bath,that is how to become beautiful" she said and collected Galene's pot and fetched water for the both of them. She turned to the other girl who immediately shifted back, "Mind your business and while you are at it, brush your teeth; you wouldn't want to know how badly It stinks she scrunched up her nose and Galene laughed out loud. "Let's get out of here before they infect us with their ugliness" Diana breathe out and the other girl who was pushed into the water wailed. "Stupid girl" keep on following her around like a puppet" she muttered and Diana turned glaring daggers at her. "One more silly word from you, and you will have yourself to blame" She howled and they immediately kept mute. "Leave them alone Daina, they are not worth our time" Galene retorted holding her friend and walking out of the stream. Galene walked into their compound with her
"They wouldn't lend me money, they said I had come to borrow for my drunk husband that even if they gave me as little as a shekel, I wouldn't be able to pay back," she said weeping. "The one who the husband had tried to borrow me, his wife had accused me of trying to take away her husband from her by collecting money from him. I had to leave before she calls the villagers" her mother said with more tears rushing down her eyes. "You see mother, you shouldn't have gone to them. Even though I only had two dresses, I would wear them happily till I save up enough" she said comforting her mother who continued weeping. "We would not die out of hunger, as long as we are alive, the gods would provide food for us" Galene assured her mother. "But am not happy Galene, I am not. My only daughter couldn't dress like her fellow maidens, if not for your god's given beauty, I wonder who would look at you" she said and Galene smiled. "You just said it mother, t
"No they would definitely catch me and even if they don't, they would go back and slay my poor mother because Master Damien is someone who doesn't hesitate to kill as I heard". "If all the stories said about him were all true, then I better keep to my self" she mumbled and sat still looking out of the carriage windows. She could not believe she had always prayed to get onto a carriage and rode round the village and the first carriage she would ever get on was the one taking her to her doom. A place she would work and suffer for the gods knows when and probably would never ever lay eyes on her mother and clan again. "Oh father what have you done" she muttered in pain. She would never forgive him and hope nemesis catches up with him. She sighed as the carriage came to a stop and she got down. She wouldn't deny that the castle was breath taking. Of what use was it to her when she came here as a slave. She preferred her rickety cottage to
"I mean what was your crime to be here" she asked and Galene sighed tears tricking down her eyes. "My father sold me out to Master Damien" she said sniffing and wiping off her tears. "Oh poor girl, How could your family be so heartless to give out his daughter to become a sex slave" she exclaimed pity written all over her face. "Wait you mean I would become a sex slave? Galene asked sitting up. "Yes that was the only thing you would be as a young lady in Master Damien's castle. Other servants and slaves were either married or older" she replied and Galene fell to the floor weeping uncontrollably. "How could you father, how could you be so cruel to your only daughter? What was my offend to you that you decided to treat me like an outcast father?" Galene wailed her voice rosing and filling the room. "Sshhh!!!! Lower your voice, if they get to hear your voice, they wouldn't hesitate to slay you" she said and
"Wait" one of the guard standing there howled at her and she abruptly stopped. The guard that brought her left and one of the guard standing by the door walked into the room. She stood there looking down at the floor, her chest hammering and her hand shaking. She took several intakes of breath to calm her nerves. Soon the guard came out and signalled the other own who inturned, searched her before he allowed her in. She walked into the room and glanced around but couldn't find where the master was so she stood still looking down. Come forward he ordered and her heart flew into her mouth and she quickly took her hands to hide her almost exposed boobs. She breathe out and dragged her legs towards him. She stood at his front and looked down "Good day master she greeted but he ignored her and cupped her left bre*st. She Frozed at the spot and her heart hammered. "Look at me he said and she looked up.
"Just ignore her" Mariam said and Galene nodded. Master Damien sat down on a raised chair sipping red wine from a cup while watching as his guards as they hit a man repeatedly. The man's scream echoed through the room and extended out sounding through the hallway. "What are you doing Duru? Is that how to you hit or your hands are too heavy to lift a strip" He shrieked, glaring daggers at a guard who was hitting with all his strength. He poured more wine into his royal cup enjoying the wail coming out from the man's throat. Hearing wails and cries made him happy, He enjoyed it as much as he enjoyed sex. He got tired of hearing the man's wail and stood up picking up his sword. "Splash" the man's head came rolling off his neck and he smiled, placing back the sword on the gilt. "You know what to do Duru" he said and Duru nodded. "Robin get me the new Slave" he ordered and took his wine bottle existing t
Gathering the remaining strength in her, She whimpered as she grabbed her dress from the floor and slipped it through her head. She stood at a spot and tried not to look at him and using a lot of efforts, she dragged her feet towards the door. She could fell his gaze on her back but didn't dare look back at him. Trying not to show weakness, she opened the door and left his room. She got to their room entrance and crashed to the floor wailing out loud. "What has she done to her father to deserve these punishments? Shouldn't they just kill her so she could rest. "gods and goddess weren't they looking down on her while she suffers in the hands of master Damien. Her inner legs hurts so bad. She couldn't endure the pain. These were more than torture to her, she weeped crouching on four. * * Lydia who had been pacing tho and fro the hallway, worriedly waiting to know w
"I could see that, I had been wondering around this whole place for minutes now and my legs are beginning to ache me" the lady laughed softly. "I see you are one of us and you are probably new here" The lady said and Galene nodded. "I got here a week ago" she answered and the lady nodded. "Now I understand perfectly" My dear slaves are not allowed to the master's personal kitchen and that was where u were headed" The lady pointed out. "Follow me for I would show you where the slaves kitchen are located, she said and Galene followed her. They soon arrived the kitchen entrance and the lady stopped. "I would leave you now, you can go in she said and turned to go but Galene called her back. "Please can I know your name she said and the lady smiled. "Amaya" she said smiling and Galene nodded and also smiled back. "My name is Galene" she said and Amaya beamed. "Peace" I love it and it reflects on you" she said and Galene blus
Five years later...A little boy of five ran out of a room pursued by a girl of same age.The boy ran straight to a door, opened it and ran going straight to hide at a beautiful radiating woman's back."What again Jax? What have you done to my princess this time around?" A man who looked alot like the little boy asked, his gaze fixed at the boy."You should ask your princess why she was pursuing her twin that he had to run from their chambers down here" The mother said."He ate all the candy aunt Diana brought for us without leaving any for me" the little muttered and busted out in tears."Jax why would you do such a thing to your sister? Haven't I warned you to always share things with your sister? Do you have to behave like your father all the time?" Their mother scolded dragging out the little boy who instead of being remorseful, he was busy drawing circle
"You have no right to question my whereabouts, this is my husband's castle and wherever I go should be none of your business, if you would excuse me, I have importants things to do."Hm. You are beginning to become fiesty and I love it" Master Robin said."I can see you have nothing to say so I beg to take my leave" Galene said and turned around to go but Master Robin dragged her back when she took the first step."You look so beautiful to night that I could not take my eyes off you" Master Robin said breathing on Galene's face, his hands tracing lines on her neck.He was too close to her but she couldn't do anything to push him off because he was in many ways stronger than her."You do not know what you are putting yourself into, of only you know you would get your filty hands off me right away" Galene barked trying to get his hands off her.She wondered wha
"I missed you and your wife missed you too. Your people missed you and your clan is not in good hands, please come back" he said now weeping hard."Damien please come back to us. I know you are hearing us and we plead you to return back to where you belong" Galene added, her voice harsh as though she was scolding him.After a few minutes and Damien still didn't move, Galene angrily stood up grabbing the sword."Okay Damien, that's enough. We have begged you enough and I would not take it lightly with you again.I would count to three and if you still didn't wake up then I will end everything. I will kill myself right now and I would never forgive you" Galene yelled."One.. she counted and paused, her eyes fixed on him."Two... She counted raising the sword above her head.Damien you don't want to come back right? You do not love me enough
"You should thank me for that" Diana rolled her eyes shutting the door on his face.She turned and busted out laughing with Luciana. "Such fools" Luciana sneered as they both continue laughing."Okay master Robin, it's quite getting late and I would be on my way now and would come back tomorrow noon to finalize the deal" Arnold said and master Robin smiled widely.He never knew that boundary was worth so much money and now that he knew, he was going to sell it off and make fortunes from it.Smiling widely, Master Robin walked back to his chambers. "Call back the mistresses" he said to the guards and walked into the room.*****Galene got out of the woods and waited for Arnold. Few minutes later he came out of the castle."You have it?" Arnold asked and Galene nodded showing the sword to him.He smiled and collected th
"What are you still doing in that room? Don't you have things to do this morning?" A guard called out to Mariam the next day.She was still curled up on her bed, her eyes swollen from crying throughout the night."Am I supposed to also work?" She asked the guard in surprise. She thought master Robin only cast her out of his chambers and not for her to return being a slave."What do you think? That you are only meant to eat and sleep all day? The guard asked staring disdainfully at Mariam"Will you get up from there and follow me before I drag you myself" the guard shouted when Mariam made no effort of moving.Mariam sniffed and stood up, this was too much disgrace to her, master Robin would have simply told her he wasn't going to marry her so she wouldn't have to maltreat the servants.Now that she's back to being one of them, they would never spare her
"Does he show any sign of waking?" an old woman asked a young girl who was applying herbs on a body."No mother. I wonder who had such hearts to use the dead grass on him" the young girl said with a sigh and stared at the young man her brother had brought up and pleaded they look after.Her brother had refused to tell them who he was but insisted they take care of him and since her mother was the daughter of a medicine man, she knew the herbs to apply on him.The girl's eyes remained on the sick man's handsome face. Even in his pale state, he still looked like a war god.She roamed her eyes all over his body and noticed his fingers slightly move.She was sure she didn't touch him, meaning he moved his fingers by himself."Mother!!!!!" She scream aloud and her mother rushed out of the cottage."What is it, Rosan
"First, let me introduce myself before I begin," the old man said and Galene nodded."My name is Arnold and you would get to know who I am later on," He said and Galene nodded curtly eager to hear the story."Years ago, this castle was once lively and filled with life. Then, the community had not been divided into clans.We were under one King, king Archer. He got married to four wives but none of them was able to produce a male child to take over the throne and rule after him.After many years of being childless, the book of his wife became pregnant at the same time and both gave birth to boys.The only thing wrong was that the third wife give birth ten minutes before the first.When the boys came of age, they started dragging one as the first child amongst others.The first wife's son insisted he was the heir because his mother was the
She got to the farm yard and was told to pack the harvested fruits to the store room.She collected the big bowl and began packing the fruits into them.The bowel got filled up and one of the guard helped her lift it to her head. She took the fruits to the store and arranged them on the racks then walked back to the farm to pack another one.She kept on going from the farmyard to the store, her waists were threatening to fall off but she persisted.She wouldn't be able to retire to her bed if she doesn't finish the work assigned to her.It was already midnight when she finished and a guard approved her work before she retired to her room.Diana wiped off her tears when the door opened and her friend staggered in tiredly.She had been up waiting for her, she knew Mariam and master Robin are frustrating her life and would have given her workloads."Why are you crying?" Galene asked staring at her weeping frien
Two months later...Master Robin sat on a chair writing on a scroll. His eyes were fixated on the scroll as he constantly dip the feather into the ink pad.The door opened and Mariam walked in. Master Robin looked up and sighed seeing who it was.He knew what she came to do again. Disturb and query him about his promise, something she had constantly done for the past two months.He took his eye back to the scroll ignoring her present.Mariam furiously Walked towards him, drops of tears visible in her eyes.She got to his front and began wailing loudly, her painted cheek getting stained with her tears."This woman!" Master Robin mentally yelled in frustration. He hated the fact that he cannot cast her out just yet.He still needs to be sure Damien is dead or at least get Galene to become his.&
