2022-09-30 20:15:06Meela was the one who had informed the witch a few years ago that the King had put a price on her head in an effort to put an end to her evil practices.
She slowly began her journey to the black forest while being careful not to be seen by anyone. She arrived at the black witch's den and told her about the news that had been brought to the king.She reminded the witch that she owed her a favor so she wanted her to make her own daughter enjoy the life that was meant for the unborn Princess.After some incantations, the witch gave her a concoction to drink and instructed her to wait until both her child and the princess had been born.After their birth, she was to take her child to the room where the princess would be kept and lay her on the same bed as the princess.She should leave the both of them there and wait for when the queen would ask her to take her child and leave.At this time, she would pick up the princess and leave with her. The queen would see Meela's child as the princess and so will everyone else.This will make her child to live as the princess while the princess would live as a slave. She would look ugly before anyone who sees her and be hated for no reason.But the witch warned her. While living as a slave, the princess should never be allowed to leave the kingdom. The moment she went out of the kingdom, she would be freed from the curse and the truth would be exposed to everyone.Meela thanked the witch and left. She felt very happy and looked forward to seeing her daughter live as the princess.A few days later, Meela gave birth to a baby girl. She kept her hidden inside while waiting for the queen to give birth to her own child.The queen gave birth two days later, much to Meela's delight. She had not named her child because she wanted the queen and king to be the ones to do so.It was customary for daughters to be named on the third day after their birth. Her daughter would already be five days old by that time. She decided to exchange the girls a day before the princess was named.On the day that she wanted to exchange the girls, Meela waited throughout the day and when it was about to get dark, she took her daughter to the palace. When the queen saw her, she wasn't happy because she expected Meela to be resting just as she was.However, Meela told the queen that she couldn't rest because she wanted to behold the face of the beautiful princess and wanted to introduce her daughter to her because she would like her daughter to be the princess's waiting made when she grew up.Without suspecting her intentions, the queen took her to the princess's room. There was another maid there who was watching over the princess.Meela held her daughter and walked over to the little bed where the princess was kept. Looking at the princess, she said, "you will serve her for the rest of your life and be her waiting maid in this kingdom."The queen thought that Meela was talking about her daughter serving the princess whereas, Meela was saying that the princess would serve her daughter.She suddenly pretended to be in pain and quickly dropped her daughter on the princess's bed.The maid stood up to take Meela's daughter away from the bed but as she got closer, Meela held her hands and fell on the floor as if her stomach were in pain, causing the maid to fall with her in the process.When the queen walked to the bed and looked at the girls, she saw Meela's daughter as the princess and saw the princess as Meela's daughter.She kept staring at the two girls until Meela stood up and quickly apologized, explaining that she had just experienced a sudden sharp pain in her stomach but was fine now.The queen then told her, "take your daughter, go back home and be sure to get a lot of rest. I don't want anything to happen to you. If you feel pain at anytime, don't hesitate to send someone to inform me so I can quickly send help for you."Meela thanked the queen, telling her that she was too kind. As she walked to the princess's bed, she felt her heart beating fast because she knew that she would be in trouble if what the witch did was not successful.She picked up the princess and noticed that the queen did not say anything. She heaved a sigh of relief and began to walk away but the queen stopped her and said,"you know the princess will be named tomorrow. Your daughter is already four days old so I presume you have named her. What is her name?"Meela breathed a sigh of relief again. She thought the queen had discovered her. Turning to look at the queen, she said, "her name is Katherine. Kathy for short.""Nice name" the queen replied before saying goodnight to Meela.When Meela got back home, she placed the princess on her bed and stared at her happily. She couldn't believe that her plan had been successful.Now, all she needed to do was to ensure that the princess never left the kingdom until the day she died.At first, she thought of killing the princess so her mind would be at rest and she would never have to worry about being discovered.But, she was afraid of the repercussions. She didn't know if killing the princess would lift the curse and she wasn't in a condition to go back to the forest and ask the witch because it was really dangerous and against the law.After thinking for a while, she decided to let things be the way they were. She would be so involved in the life of the princess from henceforth in order to ensure that her plans were successful to the very end.Related chapters
THE CURSED PRINCESS UGLY
Twenty years laterKathy woke up while it was still dark because she needed to get Athena's favorite flowers from the forest.Athena liked to smell them first thing after she woke up and each time Kathy delayed in bringing them, Athena would give her so many slaps across her face.She had noticed that Athena wasn't like that with everyone. She was the only one Athena always treated with so much anger and hatred.She didn't know why Athena hated her. She had once told her mother Meela that princess Athena was extremely mean to her but her mother had slapped her hard across the face and accused her of being jealous of the princess.In her own words, "a lowly and disgusting slave like you should feel lucky that you are at the princess's beck and call.So many people would die for the privilege of beholding the princess's beautiful face everyday but because you were born as an extremely ugly child, you cannot hide your jealousy for our noble princess."Sometimes she wondered if Meela was

Katherine had a feeling that princess Athena wanted her to get devoured by wild animals which was why she kept sending her to get flowers from the forest everyday.Each time she brought the flowers to princess Athena, all she did was smell them and throw them in the trash.Going to the forest and coming back took her approximately five hours but no one cared about her efforts. She had never gotten any form of appreciation from the princess but sometimes ended up being starved throughout the day.Just like other days, she silently prayed to go into the forest and come back unscathed because she took a huge risk each time she went into the forest.After walking for a very long time, Kathy finally arrived at the spot which housed all of the princess's favourite flowers.She plucked as much as she knew the princess always needed for the day but when she was going back home, she heard the voices of different men.She felt so afraid that she ran and hid herself by a tree. She began to sweat

The warrior Mason felt as if a bucket of cold water was splashed on his body and quickly broke away from Katherine. He moved backwards and stared at her in surprise especially since she was the ugliest girl he had ever seen.Kathy was completely flustered, she couldn't understand what had just happened to her and why she had allowed this strange warrior to get so close to her.She knew she was very ugly as everyone always told her that. Even Meela had told her many times that she would never get married and no man would ever desire her because she was the ugliest girl in the world.Mason stared at his friend Jackson without being able to utter a word. He really didn't know what had come over him. He didn't even act this way around beautiful girls so why would he kiss an ugly girl he met for the first time?Seeing the disgusting look Mason gave her suddenly made Kathy afraid. She had seen that look in the eyes of so many people and most times it always led to them spitting on her or ca

Damian stared at the flowers that had been ruined by Mason and asked Kathy, "are these the flowers that the princess likes?" Kathy nodded her head in reply. "Do not worry, I'll go get a new bunch for you, just wait right here," Damian offered. Kathy said "no, please let me come with you" but he said "don't worry, I'll go get it alone so it will be quicker. Didn't you say you don't have enough time?"Turning to Jackson, Damian said, "take good care of her and remember that if anything happens to her, the princess will hold you responsible." "Of course, I will take good care of her" Jackson replied and went to stand beside Kathy. He stared at Mason angrily and warned, "stay away from her because she is the maid of my princess."Mason shook his head and folded his arms as he stared at both Damian and Jackson whom he believed were being foolish.Damian hurried back into the forest to get the flowers and came back in less than ten minutes.He handed the bunch of fresh flowers to Kathy

Mason, Jackson, and Damien arrived at the palace and the first thing that caught their attention was Kathy who was standing under the sun in front of the palace. Jackson who was in front, barely paid Kathy any attention as his eyes caught a whiff of the princess who briefly looked out the window from her room to see the warriors.He hurried into the palace as the servants stood by the wide double doors, waiting for them to approach.Mason walked behind him, his attention was caught by the design of the palace. He smiled as he took in the beautiful surroundings but the smile on his face disappeared when he made eye contact with Kathy.Kathy quickly looked down, afraid that Mason was going to accuse her of being a witch or hurt her once again. He ignored her and followed behind Jackson as he approached the palace doors.Damian on the other hand gazed at Kathy with sympathy. He could see that she was sweating profusely and the look on her face convinced him that she was very uncomfortab

Jackson felt his heart break when he saw the way Mason stared at the princess. They were not even ashamed that everyone was staring at them. He had insisted that they came to the palace because he was dying to behold the princess's beauty but in the end, he had only done the job of a matchmaker.He suddenly lost interest in being in the palace. He wanted to be everywhere else but there, however, he knew that he couldn't just up and leave. Although all three of them were friends, Mason was their leader and called the shots.He taught them everything they knew about surviving on the battlefield since he was a naturally gifted warrior who was swift with weapons and unbeatable in a brawl from when he was a boy.What surprised Jackson the most was the reaction of the king and queen. They seemed to be pleased with what was going on between Mason and the princess. He became more surprised when the king said, "Athena, why don't you take Mason to your bedroom so you both can talk since he seem
Last Updated : 2022-11-08THE CURSED PRINCESS WHAT DO YOU SAY?
As Athena stared at Mason from her room, she recalled the conversation she had shared with Meela when she clocked eighteen.Meela had told her the truth about her birth. In her exact words, "you are my true daughter, the one who sprang from me while Kathy is the queen's daughter. I swapped you both at birth after making a powerful witch place a curse on Kathy. The reason is that I want you to live the best life and I will do it all over again if given the chance."Athena had been quite shocked at the revelation. She had wanted to doubt Meela but couldn't do so because Meela had always shown her so much love and hated Kathy.There were times when she had wondered why Meela treated her own daughter so badly but after Meela told her everything, it made sense to her. She came to understand why Kathy was so ugly and why everyone hated her so much.Her hatred for Kathy also doubled because if Meela had not done what she did, Kathy would have been living the life of a princess and she would

Kathy stared at Damian in surprise. She had never thought of leaving the kingdom before but it was also true that she was fed up with the life she was living. She hoped for a better life and had always thought that someday someone will make her life better. Perhaps this was the time. Perhaps Damian was the answer to her prayers. She smiled happily at him, "I am willing to leave with you anywhere as long as it is better than living here. If I have to work hard on a farm or even as your maid, I am willing to do it. I just want to live as a human being. I want to live without being hated by everyone. "You will surely get the life that you want" Damian assured her. "I promise you, Kathy.What will happen is that I will leave alone first thing tomorrow. Since Mason and the princess have agreed to get married, we will be here for a while so, I'll go back home and get everything ready for you, and then I'll be back in two days. Once I'm back, I will secretly take you out of here without l

THE CURSED PRINCESS LET'S GO GET MARRIED
Gavin wiped Elsa's tears and said, "Silly girl, why would you think I would be happy when you are miserable? Does Caden know that you are carrying his child?"Elsa shook her head and said, "I just found out about it today. I haven't had the opportunity to tell him and he is in his clan which is far from here."Gavin thought for a while and said, "Take my horse and go to Caden. Tell him about this pregnancy and don't worry about things here.You don't need to marry Jesse if you are miserable about it. I will still be happy because your happiness matters a lot to me.""But if I take your horse, how will you get back home?" Elsa asked.Gavin smiled, "I will find my way my dear so don't worry about me."Elsa thanked Gavin Blake and hugged him. She ran into the house and told Becky that she was going to meet Caden before running out again. Gavin helped her get on his horse and watched as she quickly disappeared from his sight.He went to a friend's house and asked him for his help to get t
THE CURSED PRINCESS I DON'T HATE HIM
Eric Jett tried to plead with Elsa to give him an opportunity to make up for lost time but Elsa said that she didn't want to have a relationship with any of them. She pleaded with them to leave because she wanted to go back inside.They all thanked her for her forgiveness and left but Eric Jett told himself that this was progress. He wasn't going to give up because he knew that even though Elsa had acknowledged him as her father, she still had grudges against him.He decided that he was going to keep on trying until Elsa got rid of the anger in her heart.Jesse's mother came back from the market with so many bags containing foodstuffs. Gavin Blake was surprised and asked her where she got all the items from.She told him that the women in the market were all trying to curry favor with her because she was about to become the supreme Ruler's mother in-law.Gavin warned her to be careful and not accept things from such people because their motives were selfish but she told him that he wa
THE CURSED PRINCESS FORGIVE ME
Eric Jett arrived at Khumalo and went into the palace. He saw Riley and Miguel leaving with their luggage. They both looked at him sadly and turned their faces away from him. Eric Jett stared at the both of them quietly but just as Riley was about to leave he stopped her. He told her that he still regarded her as his wife and Miguel was still his son but they had all treated Elsa very badly and needed to seek her forgiveness.Riley began to cry and promise that she would do whatever Eric Jett wanted as long as he allowed her to keep her position beside him and take back their son Miguel.Elsa ran outside the viewing centre but Caden was already gone. She searched around for him and couldn't find him but finally recalled that he said he was going back to his clan.She realized that she didn't know which clan Caden belonged to but she recalled that he had once told her that he was from the same clan as Ruler Kaiden Arlo.She stopped a passer-by and asked him the name of Ruler Kaiden's
THE CURSED PRINCESS I WILL DO IT
Elsa stared at Gavin Blake in surprise. "Do you have another son that I am not aware of or are you talking about Jesse? Because I am very much aware that Jesse has a girlfriend."Gavin bent his head. "Jesse is single now Elsa but it's fine. I have always wanted you to be a member of my family from when you were just a little girl but I also want you to be happy.Forget about what I have just said. When you have found the man you wish to get married to, please do not hesitate to tell me. I should get going now. Take care of yourself my child and look after your mother as always."Gavin turned and walked toward his horse but Elsa felt really troubled seeing him walk away. "Hold on Gavin." She ran after him and held his hands. "I will do it, Gavin. I've known for a very long time about this desire of yours and I cannot bear to see it make you so unhappy. I will get married to Jesse and I will become your daughter-in-law. Gavin, if you ever feel troubled about anything or need my help i
THE CURSED PRINCESS CONSIDER IT DONE
Becky thought for a while and asked Elsa, "Forget about who you love for a moment, can you see yourself getting married to Dawson?" Elsa shook her head and said, "I feel really disturbed just thinking about it." "Then, that's your answer, my child. If it makes you so uncomfortable, then I wouldn't advise you to marry him. Remember what I said to you earlier? What matters is what you really want. As long as you feel happy in your heart, I will support whatever decision you take." Elsa thanked her mother with a hug before finally retiring for the night.The following morning, Elsa got ready to meet with Bentley as was customary. When she came out of the winners' palace, she was surprised to see Zayden, the young man who was formerly her fan and now her friend. She smiled warmly at him and Zayden felt as if his heart was going to explode."Are you here to see me or someone else? I am going to the Ruler's palace for something important so I don't really have much time," Elsa said.Zayd
THE CURSED PRINCESS WILL YOU BE MY QUEEN?
Dawson breathed a sigh of relief. Elsa waited for him to go on but he kept staring at her instead so she said, "I am quite busy Dawson so you might want to hurry up. He nodded his head and said, "Elsa, I like you. The truth is that I have loved you ever since we were at the Ulundi forest but I didn't want to tell you until we got out. I wanted you to be focused and not get distracted by anything. Elsa, will you be my queen?"Elsa looked at Dawson in surprise. She could not believe that he held such feelings for her. She tried to recall if there was any time he did anything for her in the forest that may have revealed how he felt about her. She suddenly remembered how he had resuscitated her when she lost consciousness after the crabbing game.But he had done the same for Miguel too, so did that mean he loved Miguel? She smiled at him and said, "I sincerely appreciate your feelings for me Miguel. I promise that I really do but I can't marry you. To be very honest, right now my mind i
THE CURSED PRINCESS WHAT A FOOLISH MAN
Elsa said goodbye to the young man and his friends before walking over to where her mother and Gavin Blake stood. She noticed Jesse's mother standing beside Gavin Blake but acted like she was invisible. Jesse's mother greeted her with an enthusiastic smile and Elsa replied to her without bothering to spare her a glance.Elsa led her mother to the palace where she was encouraged to stay until the day of her coronation. Gavin Blake followed behind them with Jesse and his wife beside him. Jesse's mother felt really happy about her husband's relationship with Elsa. Now that it had gotten to this point, she needed to do a very convincing drama before Gavin in order to get her wishes fulfilled. When they got to the palace, Elsa escorted her mother into the house to rest. She washed the Guampe fruits and gave them to her before coming out to bid Gavin Blake goodbye.She took him to the side and asked, "Gavin Blake, do you remember what I had said before joining the Ulundi contest?"Please d
THE CURSED PRINCESS AN ORDER FROM THE SUPREME RULER
Elsa stared at Eric Jett for a while. He seemed to plead with his eyes for her to accept him as her father. She turned her face back to Ruler Bentley Buthelezi and smiled before saying, "But how can that be? Is it possible for me to have a father and not be aware? As I said before, I have known only one parent all my life and that's my beloved mother, Becky. I have no idea what Eric Jett is talking about but you can ask my mother, perhaps she would know better."Caden and Dawson stood by the side watching the drama unfold. The crowd below the stage was wondering what was going on while Miguel searched around for his mother. He knew exactly what was going on atop the stage even without being there. He also knew that his mother must be going through a hard time right now, all thanks to his incompetence and his father's shameless greed. He finally found his mother sitting by a corner sulking with a tear-streaked face. He ran to her side and immediately hugged her. She cried some more a
THE CURSED PRINCESS THIS IS FOR YOU, MOTHER
Eric Jett kept staring at Elsa on the screen as it was apparent that she was going to return as a second Ruler even if she failed. Across the various viewing centers in Lockwood, the viewers who were in support of Elsa began jubilating loudly because Elsa had become a second Ruler.The gong sounded again at the forest and Caden quickly began climbing the hill. Like the other two contestants, he had never climbed the Guampe tree before. Although he had been involved in so many activities while growing up, he had never bothered with the Guampe tree because he never thought that one day it would matter.When he finally stood in front of the tree, he used his fingers to touch the viscous liquid on the body of the tree. He now understood why they were all falling. He wished he could be allowed to use a weapon, he would have climbed it effortlessly but the eldest council member had clearly said that they were to use only their hands.Left with no other choice, he circled his arms around the
