Chapter 8
The King stared into my eyes with so many expressions written on his face I couldn’t point out, I was scared and at the same time eager to know his final decision.
“We are keeping the child” he finally said as all the Queen’s gasped in Surprise while prince Ray smiled.
I was wondering why prince Ray wanted the baby, why he was supporting my interest.
“No my king you can’t accept the baby!, She and her baby will be a distraction to your territory” Zinnia yelled.
I could see the jealousy in her eyes and anger in her voice, none of them has given the king a child and here I am barely stayed but I am already pregnant, I understood her fear, I am sure she is scared of losing the king’s attention.
The King glared at her with his flaming hazel eyes as he dimmed his gaze obviously burning in anger again.
“Zinnia how dare you try to question my order huh!?” The kind yelled as he walked towards her and held her neck so tight that I thought she would die.
Prince Ray stood up from the couch, I thought he was going to help her out but sadly he left the room.
None of the Queen’s could say a word instead they started tropping out of my room.
“Y…yo.. you’re hurting me my king, please I’m sorry!” She coughed in pains as the king suddenly released her and turned to as he gave me that last scornfully gaze and left the room leaving me to face Zinnia.
I have only stayed here for 26 hours but I have got an enemy, Zinnia doesn’t seem to like me one bit as she doesn’t stay without saying bad words to me.
“Now you see what your presence is causing?, You have really ruined our happiness here” she said as she coughed ” I know what your plan is, but you know what?, You can never be loved by the king even if you’re carrying his child, just do well to stay far from the king because you’re not welcomed in this castle” She spat out and left.
Why does she keep repeating that word!, It disgusts me to think that she sees me as a competitor, I hate the king so much that I don’t even want to make eye contacts with him not to talk of sleeping with him.
He made my situation here worst by raping me!, He took advantage of my unconsciousness and disvirgined me!. I have always wanted to feel that pain that Rosamund and Seren always talked about but he ruined it!!.
“Gosh I hate him!” I cursed with my gaze with to the ceiling.
“My Queen, I was asked to make you some coffee by the doctor to keep you and your baby strong, there are some good roots I added inside” sage’s voice came interrupting my thoughts.
“Why did you come in without knocking?” I asked harshly as she bowed.
” I am sorry my queen but I knocked on the door twice”
I probably didn’t here it because of my endless thoughts, I was so lost in thought that I didn’t take notice of anything around me.
“Why didn’t you just make it three times, maybe I would have heard” I said suddenly disgusted “Anyways take your coffee away, I don’t need it” I said facing the wall.
“My Queen please take it, it’s a prescription from the doctor and the king has ordered that I watch you drink it” she insisted which got me mad.
” Are you dumb!!, I said I don’t need it or do you want to force me!!” I yelled
I wondered why I was getting suddenly pissed off, I am not the type to get angry unnecessarily but here I am yelling at my personal maid that I like.
The door cracked open revealing prince ray who walked in smiling.
“Don’t worry about her, I will take care of her” he said in a smile making me confused of why he is being kind to be.
“My prince, the King has ordered that I watch her drink the coffee” sage said with her face bowed.
” Don’t worry, I will make her drink it just leave” said softly as sage bowed and left.
Why was he different from his younger brother, he is obviously a kind and responsible person and would make a better king so why isn’t he the king when he is the first son?.
“You seem to be quite stubborn pearl” he said softly as he steered the tea gently, why did he say that “will you please drink the coffee?” He said bringing the coffee close to my mouth as I shook my head.
There is no need caring for a monsters child, am I right?.
“Just drink, I Know that you have a lot of questions to ask about your husband, his wives and all, I promise to answer all if you drink this coffee and finish all the contents in it” he said as my eyes shone, indeed I had lots of unanswered questions in my head that definitely want answers to… Should I drink it?, Maybe I should, the baby is also mine.
I pouted childishly as I took the coffee and finish the content, the coffee tastes so plain… I wonder what roots were added inside of it.
“Good!!, So let’s get started Queen pearl” he said in a slight smile.
He is just as handsome as king Archer, he is tall and chubby with his slight pot belly, he has a dark brown hair color thar was trimmed neatly in pixie cut, his hair matched with his honey brown hair color and his smile was perfect with his beautiful white set of teeth’s.
If only the lady’s man smiles it would have been a lot better at least.
I didn’t know where to start from, I had lots of questions to ask but the problem was how to start asking.
“I know that you have being here, you also hate my brother I can tell but you have to accept him as your husband because you can’t change that” he paused as he swallowed whatever it was.
He was right, no matter what I try to do, no matter how bad I hate Archer he still is my husband and he doesn’t care if I love him or not.
“Archer has always been cruel all his life because he spent time more with my dad, I didn’t grow up here in Guham, I stayed half of my life with my uncle abroad to go to school… If Archer is a womanizer and a cruel being you can help him out, by the way you’re his wife now, I don’t mean that I support him for killing your family and sleeping with you in coma but…” He paused.
I wondered what he meant by changing King Archer, King Archer has always been a ruthless King all my life of hearing about him and changing him for good would be hard.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Even if anyone should change him it can’t be me because I hate him, what good will it be if I try changing him.
Once a ruthless womanizer, always a ruthless womanizer. He can’t be changed.
“If you’re not in support of his ruthless behavior then why did you support your father getting him drunk to rape me?” I asked sitting up.
” My father is a king and I don’t have the right to question his order, I had to go with his decisions in other not to get punished” I understood him but I wasn’t still satisfied.
“You’re the first son so why ain’t you the king?, I mean you’d make a better king than King Archer” I said eager to hear a meaningful reply.
“I was never after the throne, being king will make me lose attention from my family and profession as a chemist” he replied as I nodded slowly.
He was making sense, being king isn’t an easy task, you might have all the powers and authority but you will gain lots of enemies too.
“Come in!” I called out after hearing a knock from the door as a guard entered and bowed.
“My prince, The king wants to see you he is at his chamber” the guard bowed and left.
I am sure sage told them he is here with me, I really enjoyed my dialogue with him even if I had more questions.
“I will be leaving now, please stay safe” he said as he took my hands and gave it a soft quick Peck.
He was so humble, So sweet! I’d say his wife is lucky to have him as a husband, if only King Archer was half sweet like him my stay here would have been better.
The prince has left leaving me alone with my thoughts, I had forgotten about my little trauma but now they where coming back finding room in my head.
I swung my legs down from my bed forgetting about the cup on the table as my legs hit hard on it breaking it and making my legs bleed uncontrollably.
