Like a vulture Michael ate the remains of the cake. It was too delicious for him to leave it just at a slice. That was why he ate the whole thing. It was a cake meant for the king. His mother had baked it especially just for the king who she knew had a sweet tooth. Her son and the king had been best friends for a very long time. This gave the cunning woman to know everything she had to know about the great king. His dislikes and likes were in her memory. Even sleeping she would tell you how he liked his tea and how he hated his meat.

"Mother what did you put in this? It's really good", he complimented as he licked his fingers making sure there was no lingering taste. "No wonder Arthur loves it so much ."

His mother had not said a word just looked at her son. Observing him with her sharp eyes. He had not noticed this before. He had been too concerned in what he was eating than on his mother who was known of her unstoppable tongue. She could speak until you the one who was l

    Arthur smiled. Joking was allowed. People could play with things. Maybe Michael thought he could play about this too. "Mike let's go to sleep. You must be tired". Michael's face changed. "Sleep?! Arthur did you not hear me? I am pregnant! I am carrying your baby! And you're telling me about sleep. I'm not sleeping. I am going to stand here until you hear me.""Mike what are you saying? And why are you shouting? I have two ears. And I am here standing in front of you tell me calmly what is happening."Michael took Arthur's hand. Taking it to his stomach. "This is your child. You placed him there.""You are serious?" Arthur asked now taking this whole thing very seriously. "Mike you can't joke with things like this""Would I really joke with something like this?! Don't you know me Arthur?" He pushed the king away from him. Turning to walk away only to be stopped by Arthur who held him from behind. "I'm sorry. Sorry that I am stupid. Sorry that I didn't believe you. Everythi

    She was sure that her grandson was alright. He wouldn't be hurt by something so little. But she had to be sure. But even saw she had to check to make sure that truly everything was as it should with the little prince. She felt with her hands on Michael's stomach. Michael was biting at his finger nails. He bit his finger nails when he was nervous. As she had thought. Nothing was wrong with the baby. But she didn't say that to her son. "Do you see what you almost cost?!""What? Mom did I hurt him?" His eyes were blinking rapidly. His breathing going on overdrive. "Will he be okay? It's just been a week. ..will he-"Mona immediately regretted playing with her son like this. "Sorry dear. I was just making sure you won't do it again. You might not get this lucky next time. ""So he's fine?""Yes as healthy as can be."Michael threw a cookie to his mother's direction. "Mona don't do that! What if I had a heart attack here?" He brushed his not yet visible stomach. Glad th

    Michael heard the screams upstairs. The midwives were there with Riya. Arthur continued to wrap Michael into his arms as they cuddled on the bed. "Arthur your wife is in labour" he reminded. "So?""What do you mean so? She is your wife. She is giving birth to your son. Your heir. The heir to the kingdom. You should be there."Arthur kissed Michael's neck. "Too kind. "Michael did not understand people telling him this. He wasn't kind just sensitive to things that happened around him."That woman has midwives looking after her she is going to be fine. Plus I married her because she is strong enough not to die in childbirth."Michael breathed holding his stomach. "Auh..hn""What is wrong?" Arthur asked quickly. Worry on his features. He and Michael sat up on bed. Michael held his hand. "Arthur call my mother.""What is happening? Are you okay?"'Ahh!" Michael screamed again. Squeezing Arthur's hand. "Call my mom! "Mona was a midwife. Michael didn't want anyone else helping

    Two months later..."Garry my beautiful baby." Michael kissed the baby on his arms. As Arthur presented them to the crowd of people that came to witness this. "It's been long overdue. Too bad it took me almost dying and getting married to a sea witch to realize that I had everything I needed right next to me. My everything. My husband. And my co-king. I love you Michael." Yet again he made Michael blush without even trying. "I do not care about your opinions on the matter. All I wanted to address is that this man right here. This special gift that the gods have given me gave me a son. An heir. Your future king." The people went silent. Listening to their king's words. None spoke anything. Some had already accepted it. That this was how their kingdom would be now. It would be run by two kings. And that was that. But others were still stubborn stuck in the old ways as if they would help them move ahead in life. But nonetheless no one stopped the king's speech. "I give

    Bang! The beating now didn't even have feeling to Harty now. He was used to it. His father's leather belt was just like one of his own now. Every lash that used to make him cry out in pain now felt like a pain that would eventually go away. He endured some more of the lashes. Not really paying attention how many they were. His father Oscar Declan was upset because yet another wife left him. Now he was unleashing all his frustrations on his son like always. "It is your fault! It has always been your fault!" He threw out insults like this all the time. "If you hadn't killed your mother I would be happy now!"Harty's mother died during childbirth. His father has always blamed him for it. As if he was at fault. As if he had something to do with his birth. It was not his fault his mother couldn't live longer than a few hours after his birth. It is not his fault that his father had to raise him himself. It's not his fault that every marriage after that has been nothing but a n

    Harty looked at Justin. "I love you". He didn't plan this. He didn't even know that he would say it. But his mouth had just opened and it had just gotten him off guard by just saying one of his great desires like that. Just as if they weren't locked inside his heart for such a long time that even if he had to look for them to time to time. But today they escaped him so freely. They must have been tired of being suppressed and shut down every time they wanted to be let out. Now he had told the one he loved that he loved him. How would Justin take this? Justin didn't make any reactions. Making Harty continue. "I have loved you since a very long time now. Seeing Michael and the king has just made me angry that I can't have what they have. I'm jealous. I also want to-" he stopped himself from continuing. This was his best friend. The one who always had his back. How could he do this? How could he say such things. Right? No. This was wrong. Wrong to put Justin in such a situ

    Justin watched Harty as he slept. He seemed so peaceful even though he was sleeping on the floor. The cold floor that Justin wished he could replace with a bed. But he couldn't change anything now. It was already done.They had already joined. United in every way possible. Justin kissed Harty's sleeping forehead. "I love you so much." He wasn't kidding about not wanting him to go away from him. He wanted to keep Harty safe. With him. Forever. He wanted Oscar Declan to be permanently out of the picture. He wanted Harty to never be hurt by that man whether physically or emotionally. But of course Harty is stubborn. Justin does not know how many times he had asked him to just finally agree to live with him only for a little while. Every time he refused. Telling Justin that his father would always be his father no matter what. It infuriated Justin because every time Harty said that he looked like he had given up. As if he was believing his father's words more and

    Chapter 8 Baluthando I just kissed another guy! Well it was a peck but it still is a kiss! And the way he looked at me afterwards. Shit! Like he was mesmerised. Why would he look at me like that? I wasn't... I mean there was a moment, a moment where I kinda wanted to really kiss him. Especially when he licked at my lips. Trying to make me open my mouth but of course I refused him. I want look like a woman now but I know I'm not. The kingdom has a specific set of rules, the first in the line is No same sex couples. I for one had absolutely nothing against being gay. You can't choose who you fall in love with. But in this kingdom you can be killed for it. Especially if you're royality. Being the prince and gay would make my life pretty difficult. So no thank you. I love my life too much to just let myself be dead like that. “ You're silent for once.” Moli commented as we got inside the house. “ I just don't have anything to say that's all. ” He nodded. “ I'll go pl

    Chapter 7 Celiwe I walked into the house. Only to see my parents with too much black in their clothes. They looked like movie spies. I laughed making them to look at me. “ What are you guys doing?” “ Since your brother is making our lives difficult. We're going to go kidnap your husband to be. To go throw him in the arms of your brother. The sooner we do this the better for all of us” I smiled and swiped at my phone to the pic I took of both Moli and his girlfriend. Showing the both of them. Mom was first to gasp and snatched away my phone from my hands. “ Is this...?” I nodded, “ That's Moli,your son mom. He has a girlfriend and by the looks of it their pretty much happy. His eyes literally lit up the minute he saw her come in the room. Their in love.” “ If their in love then what's this about him wanting to get a night with the prince?” Father asked as he looked at the pic as well. I sighed. “ Well he just thinks I'm too young to get married. I think he just

    Chapter 5 Molitha The girl hit my hand off. “ What the hell!” I smiled at how cute she looked right now. “ Feisty little thing aren't you?” She opened her mouth as if to say something but quickly stopped herself. “ You hungry?” She nodded her head. Oh. The silent treatment. Okay guess that's fine too. I went to the kitchen to prepare something for the both of us. Since there was only butter and bread there wasn't any choice but the obvious. I took two plates for us and put four slices on each and then spread the butter on the bread. Then took out the juice from the fridge and poured it on two glasses. I managed to balance both plates and the glasses on a tray with one hand. Which was a horray! For me. When I got to the living room again I saw the girl trying to sit up but failing . I placed the plates on the coffee table along with the drinks. I then went to help her sit up but the stubborn girl tried to push me away. “ Do you want to eat? Or should I leave

    Chapter 4 Baluthando I was getting very annoyed right now. What was taking the ambulance so long? I seriously didn't want to stand one more second listening to this guy. He had the guts to think I'm a girl! That shit needs to stop! If only I could feel my legs and see! I would kick the living day lights out of him. Then he'd know better than to just insult royalty for his personal gain. “ Seeing that we're gonna stay here together for a while would you mind telling me how you got to the woods? Plus the blindness and cripple thing. Don't leave the being girl now part out. ” Is this guy serious?! Lord! If you could just give me my sight and only my left leg I would have killed this asshole now. “ Will you shut up! I've had enough of your voice. Please!” “ Heard enough of my voice? Now that's a new one. I'm usually the one who gets enough of the others' voices. Not too bad for a girl.” I am literally shaking from the inside right now. The anger this guy is giving me right now!

    Chapter 3Molitha I woke up feeling like a truck hit me. I really wasn't in the mood or the right mind to fight or talk to anyone right now. Who was I even kidding? No one talks to me. So this grumpy mood of mine is for myself and I. Might as well go for a run to at least get this bad mood out of my system before work. God knows if I do one more thing to get Mr Smith angry he's gonna fire me for sure. And the mood I'm having right now won't do any favours for me. I didn't bother to change from the clothes I now had just noticed I slept with. I blame that fucking ‘family meeting’ it's the one that's causing me to get so angry early in the morning now! Moli breathe. Getting worked up won't help you now. A run will. I'm totally messed up. I have to calm to myself to calm myself down. The hell is that! I put my earphones started jogging outside. About a mile away from the house I started to come back but as I reached the Tercab woods just close to my house I saw somet

    Chapter 2 Molitha I arrived home. Collapsed on the bed. What the heck did I do?! One night with the prince? Am I crazy?! Not only will that not happen but I'd be thrown to the hangers if the king or anyone else other than the family heard me say such a thing. Being gay in this kingdom is a serious offense. An offense that will be treated as if it were treason. We live in the twenty first century where anything is possible. Anyone can love anyone but not here. No such a thing will be found here. We are like dark ages except modern. What would I even do with the prince the whole night? Ugh! Moli! Why can't you just live through the grudge? Because I can't! I want to see those people suffer like they made me suffer. So declaring that you won't be part of your sister's wedding till you get one night with the prince is revenge? Yes! Because they'll never agree to it. Oh yeah? The same parents who do everything in they're power to get what they want are t

    Chapter 1 Molitha I got to the house. For some reason there was a family meeting that was called. Which surprisingly they added me as well. You see my family and I don't get along much. I stay at my own house and they stay at theirs. I felt nothing for the house that I once called home. The house that once was home. But now it just feels like a holder of all the bad memories of my life. All the memories I have tried so hard to suppress. Here I am now at same place I hate the most. "You made it" I looked up to see Celiwe,my little sister. She ran to me. I opened my arms for her. The hug was brief but it had all the emotions that we were feeling. I last saw her when she was sixteen now at eighteen she looks so grown and all woman. I almost didn't recognize her. "Do you know how much I missed you!" She screamed still clinging onto my jacket. "You know where my house is. "I replied with an emotionless voice. Even with her I knew I couldn't be free to talk as I p

When I love ZeusI was in my throne room attempting to drink my second glass of gkive( a strong dosage of alcohol that can be also described as whiskey but stronger) I wanted to just get get drunk already. I had no one. Arrow also had the responsibility of taking care his daughter not that he couldn't let the servants do it but I understand him. He just lost his wife and all he had left of her was their daughter. I wish at least my case was the same. I could have someone to kill the boredom with but I have no one. Just as I was going for a sip the throne room doors were opened by a guard. I stared at him waiting for explanation of the disturbance. “Your highness the queen has returned.”My head jerked up when my eyes connected with blue ones. Ones that I knew as Eva's. She wasn't the only one that surprised me with though. The baby in her arms also surprised the alcohol out of me. I stood up, looking at her. She only gave me a grim look. “Eva?”“No Evangeline now.” She correc

And what were those loud shouts?I pulled a servant out. “What the hell is happening?” I asked her. “ Um... mistress is in labour.” She answered. “I said tell me what hell is happening?! Don't fucking joke with things like that!”“Sire she is in your bed chambers this minute with the midwives.” What was she saying? “What?” I rushed to the stairs racing like my life depended on it. To my room where the shouts and screams were coming from. I pushed the door open. To see the shock of my life. My wife was truly giving birth. She was lying on the bed. Screaming at the top of her lungs as she kept on being told to push. “Lorinda.”“Arrow?” she gasped out. I didn't understand. How come I never knew my own wife was pregnant? She didn't show any signs of it. She had no baby bump in fact I don't even remember her mentioning any sicknesses. I was about to approach her but the midwives pushed me
