Queen Adaze walked elegantly into his daughter’s chamber, she met Princess Nneka on a seat, with her maid dressing her hair.“ Greetings, your highness,” the maid said, immediately she sighted the queen and lowered her head.“Excuse us,” she said in an authoritative tone to the maid, in a jiffy, the maid was out of the room.“Queen Mother, what is the secret of today’s excitement?” Princess Daisy and Nneka asked simultaneously.“Won’t you offer me a seat first?’’ she said, instantly Princess Daisy stood up and brought a stool out for her mother to sit on.The queen mother settled on the stool, teasing her princess for a while with her silence, she didn’t let out the reason behind her visit, imposing the princess into a suspect.Princess Nneka is not a patient type, she looked at her mother intently, waiting for her to speak-Princess Daisy smiled slightly, waiting for her mother to speak, she’s a reserved type.Princess Nneka spilled out she got tired of the silence“Queen mother, tell
Alpha Malik looked intently at Aurora, whose eyes were closed, he withdrew his arrow and shot the target tree instead.A chorused excitement escaped the mouths of the stand-by guards, while some were bittered that the king didn’t shoot Aurora.“Bull eyes” they chorused cheerfully.“Tie her to the target tree,” Alpha Malik said in his icy tone, neglecting their appraisal.Aurora blinked her eyes slowly as she opened wide, her heart raced nervously, and as Evans dragged her to the tree, Aurora found her leg too heavy to move, though Evans was dragging her to the target tree.He’s going to do awful things to her, he might kill her, as much as Aurora wished to, but she still feared this near death. She couldn’t take the fear out of her bones right now, It crept her out.She wished she could die without her knowing she was going to die, knowing she wanted to die is tortured.She raised her eyebrows and looked stylishly at Alpha Malik, she lowered her eyes immediately, she was unable to with
He moved closer and checked her breathing, Then he confirmed she was still alive, and he looked around if he will spot a maid or guard to carry her in. He bent down and lifted her fragile body when he couldn't find anyone, he glanced at Aurora's beautiful face, and her lips, it looked alluring to Alpha Malik, and he quickly looked away, looking at her face inconvenient to his thought. Likewise, he carried her into the physician's chamber, the physician rose immediately after she sighted Alpha. “Greetings my king,” she said and lowered her head, she was shocked to see Aurora in the hand of Alpha, she knew how much he hated her.“Where will I drop her?” Alpha's icy voice brought the physician out of her thoughts.“Here my King,” she said and directed the king to a bed, she has many beds in her chamber where she admitted the sick, she is the physician of the palace, a woman whom King Alpha trusted her.“What happened to her?” she asked the king in a humbled tone as much as possible not
Xena stood at the door of Alpha Malik's bedroom, afterward, Evans opened the door for her, and she entered, her eyes filled with craving and carnal lust, she watched Alpha Malik scribble on the scroll.She took slow and deliberate steps towards him, her heart beating hard in anticipation, licking her lips seductively.Alpha Malik, didn't raise his eyes to look at her side, his focus was on the scribbling, after a brief silence, he broke the silence.“Get on the bed” Alpha Malik ordered in an icy tone, he likes to dominate on the bed.“Yes Master,” she said seductively, trying to please Alpha Malik, who likes to dominate during sex.He has only eyes for Xena, she's the only one who was able to pleasure him, and able to absorb his massive rod.He called Xena because he got angry at himself for carrying Aurora, he needed sex to release the burden on him, and Xena is the only one good at doing that with him, he has not touched his other concubine since they got married to him.She removed
Alpha Malik and Jericho walked to the throne room, there was a silent ambiance In the room as they stepped in.The Alpha's irresistible, cold aura could be felt around him as he walked into the throne room, his hands crossed behind his back. The aura clung tight around him, making everyone fear him.Minister of a warrior, Lucas from the Gigal community, stood up immediately he sighted Alpha Malik, including the minister of finance of the Uruk community, minister Berlin, he sprang up from his seat and lowered his head to pay their obeisance to the king.“Greetings my king” they greeted, lowering their heads simultaneously.Jericho went to stand at the end of the line, while Alpha Malik walked to the throne seat, and stumbled on.He didn't bother to acknowledge their greetings, instead, he spoke in his usual icy tone.“To what do I hold this greeting?” Alpha Malik said in his expressionless looked, directing his question to minister Lucas.“My lord, I'm sent here by my king, King Louis t
Alpha Malik was in his chamber sharpening his sword, his head was filled with worries and anxiety, and he didn't know whether he should send Aurora to the visitor. He contemplated not because he cared, but because she was sick, and he didn't want her to die under the thrusting of the old man.He wants her to die under his torture, he wants to avenge his father's death himself.Likewise, he knows how brutal the affluent behave harshly to the less, he might hate Aurora, but he didn't want other people who are not his subject to treat her brutally, since they hold no grudges against her.Likewise, he alone and his subject are the ones to inflict pain on her, yet he is a king who can't go against his words.Likewise, he marched out of his chamber with his sword to the veranda, he met his right man Jaguar on the way.“My lord,” Jaguar said, staring at the sharp sword in his hand.“My lord, should I follow you?” He asked in a gentle tone.“I would have told you to follow me if I wanted you t
Jeanne scurried back into Xena's chamber, to tell her what she heard. Her heart raced heavily as she entered the chamber., Xena who lay on the bed sprang up due to the force Jeanne used to open the door. ''Any issue”, Xena asked with a heart breathing faster due to how startled she was, due to the force. Instead of Jeanne replying, she breathed deeply before she put on an explanation looked. “I was about to get your water when I heard the maids discussing Aurora.......” “And so, is it not normal? Is that why you want to give me high blood pressure? I have to spring up, and you know how my thighs hurt”, Xena interrupted her angrily, she was angry because she didn't see the hot water in her hand. “I do apologize for that, but it involves your man, that is why I rushed down here” Jeanne pouted. Xena's angry countenance changed instantly, her mood was for Jeanne to explain what she heard to her. “What did you hear?” She asked with a calm voice, trying not to sound pissed off. “I wa
Xena intentionally wants Morena to confess, protecting Aurora, and she wants to discipline her for siding with Aurora—She can't discipline her until Alpha Malik sanctions it. She needs evidence to present in the presence of Alpha Malik before he can approve the sanction. “Your highness, what I meant is that......” Evans knocked gently on the door, which makes Morena stop what she was trying to say, though she knows Concubine Xena so well, her cunning and obsessive nature, she won't dare to offend her knowing fully well, the king adores her. “And what are you doing here” Xena snapped at Evans rudely. “The king sent me here to deliver a message to Morena" Evans stuttered, seeing the frowned glanced in Xena's eyes. Jeanne moved behind Xena's ears and whispered. “Didn't I tell you, the king address her, he sent him here to see how she's faring” Jeanne whispered behind Xena. Instead of Xena replying to her, her angry glance fell on her. “What for?” Xena asked. “He sent me to Morena
In the hall, whispers filled the air, mixing with anxiety. Ministers stood in their places, tension evident. Those backing Jericho couldn't muster their usual confidence; sweat beaded on their foreheads, a visible sign of their nerves.Despite the cool breeze, Jericho's supporters felt the heat of fear. They dreaded what this meeting might bring.The night before, Jericho had convinced a guard to take the blame for killing an assassin. He'd warned his followers not to support the ministers from the accounting and finance departments, suspecting a trap set by his brother, Alpha Malik.Suddenly, Jericho entered the hall, his usual regal manner intact. His face betrayed no guilt or fear, surprising his followers. Though they knew him to be cruel and wicked, they still expected a hint of fear in his eyes."Welcome, your Majesty," his followers bowed, paying homage to him as the royalty he was.Meanwhile, only hearing the greetings from his supporters, Jericho turned to see the faction aga
The morning unfolded, rural melodies danced through the air: the crowing roosters, the gentle clucking of hens, all harmonizing with the breaking dawn, rousing Alpha's Malik from his slumber.Gently, he opened his eyes to behold Aurora, still immersed in peaceful sleep. Time itself seemed to pause as he gazed upon her, his heart stirring with inexplicable warmth.In the quiet of the moment, he pondered the tranquil essence she brought to his life, marveling at how her presence could lull even the most restless soul into deep repose.Lost in contemplation, Alpha Malik found himself drawn to Aurora's forehead, his lips instinctively seeking connection. With each tender kiss, he expressed a silent devotion, each angle conveying a depth of emotion words could not capture.Last night, Alpha Malik had pushed aside thoughts of Aurora's deception as the masked girl, embracing her and embracing the moment, setting aside their differences.With gentle care, he eased Aurora's head from his shou
Shastina tightly clasped Aurora's hand, her eyes fixed on the delicate features of her face. Pain gripped her heart, an unbearable ache that whispered accusations against her own actions, blaming herself for Aurora's tragic end.The relentless thought echoed within her, a haunting refrain:"I could have confessed to the king, revealed that I, not Aurora, was the one who killed the late King."Grief overwhelmed Shastina, erasing the memory of the times when she callously told Aurora that she didn't care if she lived or died. The realization now hit her with a cruel force, a revelation of her true feelings."So you care this much about me," Aurora's voice cut through the heavy silence.Startled, Shastina and Morena leaped to their feet. The sudden realization that it was Morena's voice shattered the tension. Shastina moved closer to Aurora, and a groan escaped from Aurora's lips as Shastina inadvertently bounced on her hand."Why did you play that prank on us?" Shastina exclaimed, her e
Doubt coursed through Xena's mind as she watched the hulking man, hoping against hope for a shred of mercy. But alas, mercy was a stranger in his eyes, replaced instead by a seething anger that simmered beneath his burly exterior.With a thunderous rise, he towered over her, his gaze landing on the unfortunate canvas of clothes stained with vomit. At that moment, his anger exploded into a deafening cacophony that reverberated through the entire room, sending shivers down the spine of all who bore witness.The very walls seemed to tremble in response to his enraged bellow, rousing the other men within the prison from their slumber. As their master's voice boomed, they snapped to attention, their eyes darting around the room. Their collective focus then shifted to the source of their leader's fury, and they locked onto the telltale evidence of Xena's transgression."Kapoor!" They roared in unison, their feet slamming onto the ground in a synchronized display of loyalty. Yet, in that sam
Dread washed over Xena like a cold wave when one of the guards hurriedly went to fetch the King's Concubine, Xena knew that if none of the king's women came, she knew that if Sheba and Nneka would come, and if they got involved, things would take a dark turn.Her anxiety was palpable as they escorted her down to the dungeon. At this moment, she longed for Jeanne's presence more than ever. However, Jeanne had fallen for one of the guards and had left with him. Xena held onto the hope that Jeanne would return, though it seemed like a distant dream.It was too late for anyone to persuade the King to honor the promise he had made to his mother, the vow to protect. Yet, Xena clung to that promise, despite the risk of the King discovering her involvement. Memories of the kindness she had shown to the King's mother weighed heavily on her conscience.As they reached the cell and the guard swung open the door, a putrid stench overwhelmed Xena's senses, causing her to instinctively cover her no
Xena's body trembled with fear as she stood there, as Minster still held the document in his hand. The king's eyes scrutinized the scroll as he turned his gaze toward the minister of accounting. She felt her whole world collapse, trapped in a nightmare."What are you doing here?" The king's voice was icy, jolting her back to reality."I... I..." Xena stammered, feeling utterly helpless as Jaguar approached the minister and gently took the scroll from her shaking hands."Your Highness, the scroll..." Xena's heart sank as she grasped the gravity of her situation. The consequences would be dire if the document contained what they suspected. She wished she could vanish, but the king's words reverberated through the hall, freezing her in place."Jaguar, read the scroll's contents. Evans, send guards to find the criminal hiding in town. And when you locate the assassin, eliminate him immediately. Someone dared to set him free from prison." The king's tone brooked no argument, sending shiver
Aurora's eyes widened in awe as she found herself in an enchanting realm, surrounded by colors dancing in the sky. It was a place of breathtaking beauty that seemed almost otherworldly. As she explored this magical space, she was captivated by the sight of a stunning woman with eyes that sparkled like stars and a handsome man whose warm smile radiated kindness.Curiosity overwhelmed her, and she approached them with wonder in her eyes. "Why is this place so incredibly beautiful? And why do both of you look so lovely?" she asked, her voice filled with awe.The woman's response was soft and soothing, "This place is special, Aurora. It's where beauty and love intertwine."Aurora was taken aback, unsure of where she was or how she had arrived there. "Am I dreaming?" she questioned, a hint of uncertainty in her voice.The man's gentle laughter resonated through the air as he replied, "You're not dreaming, but you're not entirely awake either. This realm exists between realities, where the
Alpha stormed into Morena's chamber, his presence filling the room with an air of authority. His eyes widened in shock as he beheld Aurora, blood trickling from her nose. The sight sent a jolt of panic through his veins, and his voice thundered, overpowering every other sound in the room."What is going on here?!" he demanded, his voice reverberating with urgency and concern.The force of his voice made Morena snap her head in his direction, her eyes filled with worry. Evans, Shastina, and the other maid present in the physician's chamber followed suit, their gazes dropping in deference.Their murmured response of "Your Highness" barely registered as Alpha's attention remained fixed on Aurora's ailing form. He spoke again, the urgency in his voice demanding an immediate answer."I need to know what is happening here," he pressed, his tone filled with a mix of fear and determination.Morena, realizing the weight of the moment, turned to face the king. She spoke softly, her voice betray
As Alpha Malik made his way back inside the palace, a heavy cloud of hurt and betrayal engulfed him, obscuring the warmth and love Aurora had once ignited within his heart. With each step, his pain deepened, casting shadows on the memories of their shared moments.Unknown to him, a sense of urgency tugged at his soul, compelling him to seek out Aurora. He couldn't fathom the reason behind this inexplicable need, but he was certain that when she woke up, she would face the consequences of her deception. And as for Evans, Alpha's blood boiled with disbelief at the thought of his supposed ally supporting Aurora in fooling him. The mere idea was unfathomable, and he vowed that Evans would pay dearly for his betrayal.Yet, amidst his wild thoughts, Alpha brushed away the intrusive doubts, focusing on his path ahead. Determined, he walked with measured steps, the imposing presence of the palace surrounding him like a symphony of grandeur and deceit. As he advanced, his attention was drawn t
