We followed the maids through the corridors and down the path, the palace interior was surprisingly beautiful, every wall and floors had a unique texture, colours and materialisation, the marble floor grounds, glimmered with the reflection of the surrounding, the sound of our shoes hitting the marble grounds, echoed through the corridors, at each doors, an eunuch is situated dressed in simple light turquoises garment, competed with a turquoise garment hat, as they stood head bowed to the ground, not once they looked up as we passed through the hallways.

The walls were decorated with gold Plated fire torches that lighted the hallways and corridors as we passed through, we suddenly entered a large open space, where ladies dressed in beautiful colourful dress garments, completed with ruby jewellery matched there dresses, as they walk passed us. We came to a sudden stop in- front of two large doors, beautiful decorated in gold, black, white and dark bus patterns. The maid lady nodded to the eunuchs that were standing in front of the doors, with one nod they slowly opened the doors.

The space was beautiful decorated with more beautiful textured floors, and walls, rose pink curtains fall to the ground hang at each space, floor lounge sitting areas at each area, the room was filled with beautiful ladies, all dressed in the most beautiful colourful garment dresses that I have ever seen, finished with beautiful diamond stone, buttons and finishes, each girl wore stunningly beautiful jewellery. I was completely shock by all of this, " ladies ladies, in a straight line", shouts the lady that grabbed my face earlier, motioning for all the girls, forcing them to stop what they were doing and stand in a line, we slowly walked in and stood in a line in the middle of them, I heard whispers coming from the girls that were dressed so beautiful, as they laughed and pointed towards us, i grip my dress righty in my hands, trying to control my anger,

" alright ladies, meet your new concubines, from now on they will be living here and abiding to the rules of the palace", says the lady, that seemed like she's the one in charge of the place, " for the new concubines, I'm madam Fehmi, the chief treasurer of the concubines, I will be the one in charge of everything thing that goes on here, I'm also in charge of every single concubine that walks into this palace", madam Fehmi states, as she paces once again back and forth between the girls, I was right the whole time, she definitely was someone in a higher position,

" the new concubines will be taught all the new rules by the book, you all will be sent to the palace schools to learn and be taught of the palace education traditions and politics, you will learn how to read and write since that will be the most important essential in sultan Jeon Jung-kook Palace", she exclaims motioning her fingers as she talks, " like I said, every new concubine will abide to those rules, any rules broken such fighting of being problematic, will serve such severe consequences or even be thrown out of the palace", she states, her eyes suddenly meeting my, as she glares directly into my soul, why do I feel like what she just said is aiming at me, I break her eye contact and look at the ground, " every concubine has her own set of task and orders to do, which you must complete, now am I clear with the instructions", madam Fehmi, states , " yes, madam", we reply abruptly, " now just remember, you can make this palace your living hell, or your loving heaven, you choose", she notes, before turning around and walking out the doors, with two girl maids following her,

Yasmine looks at me, smiles softly motioning that every thing is going be ok, " alight girls, go pick your beds, and get ready for supper", one of the maids indicates as she claps her hands, yasmine walks towards me, " look how beautiful those girls are dressed", she whispers, tugging on my arm, " why are we dresses in white and brown garment dressed", she questions, tugging on her dress", she asks in frustration, " I'm not sure, I don't really care", I whisper, walking to one of the floor made beds, I slowly sit down, I guess this one is mine now, I slowly breath out, trying to collect my thoughts out. " I will take this bed next to yours", yasmine happily says as she sits down on her bed, how is she in such an happy mood, as she plucks one of the grapes from a bowl of fruits that was placed on a table next to her beds, she motions for me to take some, and I shake my head softly as I pull my legs together and rest my head, I continue to examine the room, as I see the other concubines girls that are better dressed then us giggling and laughing with another as they play with there hair, how can they be happy being in a space like this, everyone must be crazy on this room.

 " I will take this bed next to yours", yasmine happily says as she sits down on her bed, how is she in such an happy mood, as she plucks one of the grapes from a bowl of fruits that was placed on a table next to her beds, she motions for me to ta...
