Carmella’s face gradually broke into a grin exposing her white set of teeth, that feeling of fulfillment and accomplishment came rushing into her like a stream of many waters, she ran to her mother embracing her tightly while covering both of her cheeks with lots of kisses “you’re the best mother, I love you so… much” she said stressing the word ‘so’ which ended up making Zara laugh so hard, she haven’t heard Carmella talk like that in a long while and she was glad she was able to be the reason behind her smile.“You should get going now before it starts raining else I would be forced to revoke my permission” she threatened playfully while she watched Carmella quickly comb her hair, she picked up her veil from the bed afterwards covering her hair properly, she smiled at her mother.“How do I look mother?” She asked with a beautiful smile on her lips.Zara nodded “beautiful as always&h

Joshua continued drenching his throat in alcohol, he stood up facing the open window, he watched as it rained heavily, the water hitting rocks outside making loud noises, he could hear the thunder storm raging up in the sky, he hung his head in bitterness, sniffing over and over again, his eyes had turned blood shot and he could barely see clearly since alcohol had soaked deep into his body system, but what does he care? He just wanted to get that burning anger off his chest, he just wanted to get the fact that he had been betrayed by someone he trusted most of his chest and perhaps he would feel a lot more better afterwards, he squeezed his face feeling totally depressed, alcohol wasn’t making things better for him just like he believed it would, it was rather making things worse, he gradually moved over to a seat in the room, staggering left and right, he almost lost hold of the bottle which would have ended up shattering to pieces on the floor but he was fast enough to catch it on

For a couple of hours, queen Emma paced her room thinking of what she just saw, she felt excited about it and at the same she felt fulfilled though she couldn’t understand how it all started, she couldn’t understand why her son kept rejecting Carmella yet he wanted her badly, she sent for Maria at once who answered under few minutes, she turned to her.Maria bowed with her hands comfortably placed behind her “you sent for me my queen.”She nodded “early tomorrow morning, you would go to Zara’s house and send for her, the King’s wedding would be taking place in two days.”Maria’s eyes widened, she couldn’t believe her ears but she possibly couldn’t question the queen either, she only nodded her head.Leonna who was eavesdropping to their conversation standing at the queen’s door gasped and hurriedly tip toe back to her room, she covered her mouth with her palm shaking her head over and over again, she had seen Carmella walk into the palace earlier, for a lot of reasons she felt Carmell

“Well that isn’t for you to decide anymore, the traditions insists that you marry her, any woman that sees the nakedness of the king and sleeps with him must become his wife” she said without any sign of pity in between her voice.Joshua scoffed turning away, he ran his hands across his face feeling totally helpless, he finally turned back at his mother who seemed so ready for whatever answer she wanted to get from her “mother did you put Carmella up to this? You asked her to seduce me didn’t you?”The queen gaped “what the hell are you talking about?”“It’s obvious that you are so excited about what’s going on right now, I don’t understand what type of a mother would be overjoyed at the expense of her own son’s happiness and peace of mind, why would you send Carmella to my room? Why? How could you do this to me mother knowing fully well that I was drunk the previous night?” He cried out with a heavy heart.“Joshua I don’t understand you, why are you blaming me for your own mistake, t

She gnashed her teeth with so much aggression adding more pressure to it which each second that swept by, she pressed her hand backwards against the wall like it was possible to pull the wall backwards so she could find even a little space to run for her dear life but that was totally impossible, she took a quick glance around and then fixed her gaze on Joshua who looked totally different, Carmella could swear that she was seeing a beast standing right in front of her at that moment, never have she seen such look on Joshua’s face, he was always wearing this decent look and now she could understand why she got deceived by it, she also wondered how Diana was able to handle him if this is actually what he looks like when he is angry, at that second a full rush of regrets came wallowing within her, she wished she could move back the hands of time perhaps she could have thought things true and stopped any of this from happening, she bowed her head sadly knowing it was her fault, Joshua was
