Queen Annabelle _ J.JK
The girl walked back and forth in the house a three-year boy in her embrace as she softly patted his back and he slept peacefully in his mother's embrace. I gently hummed music as my son slept peacefully and suddenly I heard a lot of horseshoes receding. I sighed as they all turned quiet before I heard loud banging on my door which I fear would disrupt my son's sleep.
Before I could go and open the door it was broken and several armed men came around me with red coats on. They were the soldiers of the Sapphire kingdom. They were the army of king Jeon Jungguk.
Yes, Jeon Jungguk.
He is-was my husband now you could say, ex-husband. I was his queen and wife. He was my king and husband. I was the princess of Jade kingdom and to maintain peace between the two neighboring lands we married and tied ourselves down in matrimony. We were like strangers living under one roof until a heavy storm came and I was afraid of thunders. He sat awake all night so that he could comfort me and I could sleep peacefully while he sacrificed his.
Soon we became close and our love blossomed. But every kingdom has sorrows. My step-sister -Lillian jealous of me since childhood wanted everything that I had. My clothes, my jewelry, my position even my husband. She came to visit me on our one-year anniversary and purposely framed me in a compromising position with a guard and accused me of infidelity.
My husband, of course, devastated and blinded by her sweet lies banished me away from the kingdom, the continent I would say, and asked me to never return or to show my face or else I would be executed. He never gave me the chance to speak rather looked at me with disgust as if I was a filthy thing. I still remember the day he was announcing to me the consequences of my actions.
"I hereby declare you Annabelle no longer be considered the queen of the sapphire kingdom, I rip you off my title of being my wife and banish you away from the kingdom--not the kingdom but the entire continent if you are ever found again associated by any one of our kingdoms you are to be executed !"
With shackles around my neck, hands, and feet I was escorted out of the continent, and the people who once respected me as the queen threw rocks and mud at me. I was humiliated to the very peak and my dignity was thrown away.
Present.
Numerous swords were pointed at me as two figures approached.
"It is indeed our queen your royal highness." The Grand Duke said. I looked around myself before my eyes went on the person whom once I loved a lot. My king. He was quite old now were meeting after 3 years ever since my banishment. He looked ever so charming while I looked like a maiden. I wore a dusty dress with a white apron. My hair was straight and combed. My face was not as appealing as before because motherhood and pregnancy took a toll on my health and body.
"My queen is that the crown prince? " The duke asked as the tiny man on my shoulder woke up due to commotion and looked around. As soon as everyone saw his face they gasped. He was a wonderful, beautiful little child who inherited all of his father's traits and looked like his mini version but had none of my features except his habits.
I looked into my ex-husband's eyes. I could see guilt and liability in his eyes. He tried to sense the emotion in my eyes for tears and sadness but found none. All he could see was cold, rigidity, and glacial expressions from my end.
That was right three years away in nowhere and all alone turned me wooden and reserved. He came forward to hold my son or our son you could say Anthony but all he got was refusal. Anthony was a 3 year old it was the first time he was seeing so many people, humans, in fact as I was the only one he knew and his mother. We lived in a small cottage in Wolfeboro New Hampshire. It was an isolated place away from the world.
"I would like to have a word with, Miss Annabelle "The so-called king announced as everyone bowed and stepped out of the cottage and I was left alone with him and my son.
"Anna ...." He called out his eyes tearing up as he was on the verge of crying.
"Yes your royal highness, how can I help you ?"
"Forgive me."
"I'm afraid I cannot do that, your majesty ......I'm not entitled to do so." I said and Anthony began playing with my hair.
"I'm an announced adulterer by the king. I'm a commoner who is by no rank in the match or in equal status with the king therefore I'm not someone the king would ever ask for forgiveness from. I would rather say that the king has lost his steps and came to the wrong place and adulterer's place so I request him to leave since there is no queen of his here or his wife "
I said in an ice-cold voice as his tears rolled down.
"Anna please-" He tried to step closer to me and I stepped back.
"I request the king not to tarnish his image by coming close to an unloyal person." His heart broke as she spoke those words unthinkingly.
"Just let me hold my son once-"
"How can you be so sure if he is your son? After finding me in a very very compromising position with-"
"By looking at him. Please I beg you just once." He could see the emotions on her face appear as she hesitantly brought Anthony forward and he held the boy with complete ease and utmost care.
"His name is ...."
"Anthony ."
"After your great grandfather."
"Yes, your majesty." She replied with no affection respecting in her voice as she stared at the ground.
"I want you to come back with me-"
"And to the kingdom, I was banished from three years ago. I cannot and won't do that your majesty it will be breaking the law of my punishment."
"You have already committed a punishment. Keeping my son away from me."
Anthony sobbed softly at that very moment as he tried to calm him down but couldn't. Her motherly instincts lit up as she took him from his arms and patted his back kissing his head multiple times.
"I've committed any wrong sin. I was banished and if I tried to associate I would have been executed and my son would have been orphaned."
"He is the heir of my throne, my son!"
"He was no longer your son the day I was ripped of the title and position of your consort and wife. He is my son and my son only."
He could see the fire and the blaze in her eyes. He knew the gravity of the situation and his fault.
"So you won't be willingly coming back with me to Sapphire Kingdom ."
"No sir. I won't -"
"Not even if I order you ?"
