Caught

When Lucy saw there was no any other way again to gain freedom cos she has been caught, she tried playing trick on the man by running away without noticing another guard was behind her.

"Hey who you looking at huh!!!".

Lucy yelled looking innocent as she watched both her left and right sides if someone was watching, as she glance her surroundings for the perfect time to break into a run.

The guard said nothing and just smiled mischievously at her like he was ready to snap her head away from her body.

When she had step a foot to swing away from the guard's view, the guard she hadn't noticed grabbed her from behind to her utmost surprise and fear.

"Ahhh!!!".

She screamed in terror.

 

He dragged her by her hair on the ground roughly like an animal to the queen in front of the crowd who watched the scene but couldn't comprehend  what was happening.

When the queen saw Lucy, she smiled with an evil glint in her eyes. 

"Bring her in for questioning".

She ordered the guard to bring her into her chamber for questioning while she dismissed the crowd to their various houses and to continue from their various duties.

Chapter 2

Lucy was tied hand clasp together at the back of a chair by the guards as the queen orders.

Queen sekina dismissed the guards to be left alone with the maid, Lucy.

Queen sekina stood up from where she had sat on her lion like wooden caved seat in her chamber. She approached Lucy with boiling countenance while Lucy sat hands tied shivering in fear and her face down without daring to look at the burning eyes of the queen.

"Why did you have to steal from me Lucy!!!" She roared.

"I trusted you as a personal maid in my palace, I never even make you feel like a maid but all you had to do was to steal my personal belonging to give to the enemies".

Queen sekina yelled at of her voice pacing down for left to right, right to left around Lucy.

"Lucy I loved you but you made me believe my love was in vain, you took it for granted and look me in the eye like you cared , Lucy why!!?

She thundered looking bitter.

Queen sekina pretending was in pretence as she hid the part where she had seen Lucy disguising herself to be a maid at her palace.

However, for the past three years that Lucy has been in disguise as a maid and a orphaned girl that she had declared herself to be. Queen sekina saw how pretty she was and found love in her eyes, they had been having intimate affairs with each other, and queen sekina had loved her whole heartedly but with what Lucy had done, the queen felt unsafe with her anymore.

"Your majesty my love, I'm so sorry for stealing it but I came to love it because I saw how pretty it was and saw how precious you kept it safe with you. it just a mirror you know and I -- am -- surprised on how you molested me in front of the people cos of that minor thing".

Lucy starmmered as she spoke in lies pretending sh doesn't know what the mirror stands for. Lucy watched queen sekina closely through the rear corner of her eyes and thought of what the queen will say to her lies.

"Really! Lucy let's be frank here. I've I hurt you in anyway before or made you look like a slave with me?huh tell me. I've I even stopped you from not entering my chamber when you wanted cleaning it? Huh".

Queen sekina questioned Lucy in an authorative tone as she stood observing Lucy for a very long time.

"No your majesty".

Lucy nodded in agreement to what the queen said.

"Fine. Then why did you do that? I need answers from you cos I know it was not the prettiness of the mirror that made you steal it you wanted it for yourself, you just became so selfish even after everything I had shared with you both in bed and ...." Queen sekina held herself from breaking down in front of Lucy.

"I need answers from you now or I do what in my mind to you. I don't fucking care if we've shared anything in common together or not?".

Lucy raised her head closely and was met with the dangerous peering eyes of the queen, she saw the fire in her eyes then her eyes locked together with the queen she swallowed hard unable to get the right words to answer the queen. 

She contemplated if she should just spill out the truth or not, but the queen already knows what she was thinking even before she could do anything.

Queen sekina's eyes never left that of Lucy's. Immediately, the queen's eyes blackened and Lucy was spelled that instant.

Lucy was hypnotized and she began spilling every truth to queen sekina's amazement.

She told her about her agenda to possess the magical mirror and told the queen of how she disguise herself just to get into the palace to become a maid in able for her to steal the mirror cause it a passage way for her father the king of olor to reawake their warlord so they could over her.

Lucy told the queen everything and detailed every information the queen wanted to hear.

The Queen's spell which was the spell of truth cleared off from Lucy's eyes like she just woke up from sleep.

Lucy who is a witch knows that she had been spelled by the queen. What would she do now she was done for for good she thought.

Her father might kill her if he gets to know she has told all their plans to queen Sekina.

    Lucy begs the queen not to expose her cos she knew the penalty of lies if the queen caught anyone lying.

However, since she has been living in the palace for three years looking for the perfect time to steal from the queen but now, everything was useless. All the plan she had made for those years had vanished into thin air just like the way she they had come.

She was caught and the mirror was collected from her by the queen. 

"Guards!!?.

Queen sekina yelled at the guards who came running from where they had stood outside the door of her chamber.

"Take her away. I don't want to see her now, lock her in the cell away from the prisoners".

Queen sekina called her guards to take Lucy away and told them strictly to lock her in a dungeon.
