The Warrior’s Bride.
Prince Amir felt as if a breath had been stolen from his throat before he turned. Azim was his cousin. They were close in age, but he was older and he lived in his mother’s tribe.
“Father, you cannot do that. “ Prince Amir said, covering the distance to his father’s throne.
“I can do what I see fit. Amir, I am not punishing you but as a King you will need to learn how to defend yourself. There are enemies in every corner. I will watch the head of warriors train with the warriors and Bashir’s men. I will decide which is better for you. “ King Aladdin said and his son knew not to argue with him.
“If anything you should blame your mother for making you this way. Sh
The Warrior’s Bride chapter 5“I will not steal that from the Prince. It will kill him to see me rule with Fareeda beside me. “ Alexander added. “That is not for you to decide. “ The King said, looking at his son. It took his breath away. He knew without a doubt that this was his son. So brave. “You will make a fine ruler. ““That role is already reserved for the Prince. I will not put myself, my mother, or my wife in danger. “ Alexander said. “Or you. “ King Aladdin only covered the distance between them and pulled his son in a firm hug. He was too happy to even argue with the boy. Alexander returned
The Warrior’s Bride Fareeda yawned as she rolled on the bed. The first thing she realised when she opened her eyes was that she wasn’t in her room. She was naked under the sheets. She never slept without any clothes on. She sat up as she realised everything that happened yesterday. She was now Alexander’s wife. A smile made its way to her face as she remembered what took place at night. She would have never guessed that was what husbands and wives do. He had kissed every single part of her body and she loved it. A gasp left her lips as Anna walked into the room. Fareeda brought the sheets up all the way to her chin. “I was going to say you have been asleep for a while. “ Anna said, smiling at the
The Warrior’s Bride. Fareeda walked out of the room slamming the door so it made a loud sound. She passed the back door and sat outside as she tried to stop her tears. This was the first time Alexander had ever raised his voice. Why was it so hard for him to understand where she was coming from?Once she was done, she met Anna in the kitchen staring at her sadly. She had heard them arguing. Anna smiled sadly at the girl before she pulled her into her arms. “It will be fine dear. “ Anna whispered into her ear. “He will not let me see my father and my father will die alone. He is the only parent I have. “ Fareeda explained herself.
The Warrior’s Bride. King Aladdin looked at his son. The Prince. Each day that passed his son was getting better and better. He watched how they trained. He could see the tension between both his sons, but he was glad Alexander was ignoring his spoiled son. They were a few months apart, but Alexander still showed signs of being the older one. King Aladdin was glad when he saw they went on break. He called for Amir. “Father, I didn’t see you there. You have been here everyday. “ Amir said, looking at his father. He had realised overtime that working on the field was not anything like he thought. “Yes. I am here to watch you. I’m very glad you’re doing well. “ King Aladdin said, looking proudly at his son.
The Warrior’s BrideFareeda stared at her father. He was doing well now. He woke up late in the afternoon and he was able to lift himself off the bed. He was even talking to her and he was being his rude self again. Some things could not just change. She had not returned home since Alexander left her here and she was even afraid to do so. She wondered what Anna would think of her now. She was a bad excuse of a wife and she knew it. “Have you finally decided to leave that poor excuse of a husband?” Bakir asked his daughter from where he sat. He was still angry at her. He had lost some money by paying people he was owing and he had more people he was owing. “Father, don’t speak about him that way. He has done nothing, but help u
The Warrior’s Bride. Fareeda stared at her mother in law. She had been awake since the seventh hour in the morning, and it was shocked her that her mother in law who always managed to wake up when the day was still dark, slept until it was almost noon. Fareeda was just preparing to visit her husband at the training grounds. She had made his favorite drink and she decided she would take it to him. It was not common for women to visit the training grounds, but she was missing him more than normal today. “Fareeda! You are back! Oh I missed you that night you spent away. Alexander was just too gloomy to be around. Tell me how does your father fair?” Anna said in a rush as she took in her daughter in law. She
The Warrior’s Bride chapter 11The walk home was not long for Fareeda. Her father’s words left her confused. She knew he was only saying that because she ended up with Alexander, but deep down she knew he felt like she was the reason her mother died. Sometimes she thought he was always so harsh towards because of her mother. She knew she should not be giving any excuses for her father being right, but today he sounded unlike himself. He sounded like a sad man, someone who was in mourning. It hurt to hear him that way. She wondered if her father ever loved her. Fareeda pushed those thoughts away from her mind. She wanted her home- she and Alexander’s home- to be her happy place. She didn’t want to have any sad or bothersome thoughts there. She was not entirely exhausted after the day’s work, but she was feeling a bit tired.
