Galene was dumbstruck, she would never in a thousand years doubt Mariam's friendship.
If at all she was supposed to doubt someone among the three of them, I would have been luciana because she has always acted distance and talks as though she doesn't like like.
Maria was the least person she would ever believe would plan to harm her.
Tears streamed down her eyes. She never knew those they call friends were the ones stabbing their backs.
"How could they shoot her husband with a deadly arrow and take over the clan by manipulating the council leader," Galene thought, whimpering.
"How could people be so pretentious that you would never in a million year Know they are plotting against you" Galene muttered aloud.
Mariam laughed out loud, shaking her head in a mocking pity, "you should never trust anyone not even yourself because you migh
The next morning, Galene woke up and stared out of the window, the sun was out already and she needs to get out and look for what to do before they would barge in here to yell at her.She wasn't free anymore and to avoid punishments, she has to wake up on time.The room was empty and she figured out her friends had gone for their various duties.Walking into the bathroom, she stripped off her cloth and began brushing her teeth with the chewing stick she guessed Diana must have kept for her.Bathing water was also kept in a bucket for her. She smiled, thanking her gods for giving her such friends like Diana and Luciana.She finished brushing her teeth and scooped water from the bucket of water, rinsed her teeth thoroughly, and spit out the water.She took the sponge and applied a black soap to it, rubbed it thoroughly to produce foams then she started scrubbing her body with it.She soon finished scrubbing and rinsing her body than dri
Two weeks later...Galene woke up to commotion in the castle. There were noises everywhere and it was just as if a market was going on in the castle.She gently rose from the bed, glance at her side to see Diana still sleeping. Luciana was out of her bed already.She stood up and tapped Diana till she also got up. Diana stretched herself yawning."What happened Galene," Diana asked with a sleepy voice."I do not have an idea, can you hear the voices outside?" Galene questioned and Diana's eyes dilated."What could be going on?" Diana thought and properly stood up, wore her footwear, and signaled on Galene to follow her."We should go check out" Said Diana as she began walking out of the room.They got outside and guards could be seen loitering around the hallway.Every one of them seemed to
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.&
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
"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
"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
"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
"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
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.
