"Would you stop walking woman!" Hakeem said irritably and I slowed down
"What? Can't keep up?"I teased and he glared at me.
"I'll take you, you'll be by my side during the ceremony ".he said to me
"And my rejection? "I asked with a raised eyebrow and he frowned.
"Fine, I'll accept you but know that it's only in words "he said and turned then walked away.
At least that was not start, a start which Amina wasn't too happy about but she had no say in the matter. At the ceremony she was just glaring at me as she walked behind us and then she started complaining that it was taking too long. Hakeem held her hand and smiled at her, assuring her that it would soon be over and I felt like he was stabbing me in the heart ,I looked away from them and concentrated on the vegetables laid out in front of me. How did the Queen survive so long and still maintain her sanity? She was the first wife and there were two more wives and a mistress on the side, a mistress who stayed in separate quarters with her children right there at the palace. Was that the future I was fated to?? But at least for the Queen her husband did not take a second wife until after Hakeem was even born but my husband had tossed me aside before the marriage even begun.
When we arrived at the palace in the late afternoon I went straight to the bedroom then entered my private bathroom where Kiki prepared a jasmine scented bath for me. I got in the tub, leaned back my head and closed my eyes as I tried to relax .I was so lost in my own thoughts I didn't even hear the bedroom door open, I only heard the bathroom door and didn't even bother to open my eyes because I thought it was Kiki coming to check on me .
"You did good today, father is happy "I heard a voice which did not belong to Kiki, startled I opened my eyes and covered my breasts with my hands, at least the rest of me was covered by water and bubbles. "Why are you hiding?? Am your husband and I have every right to look at you however I want "said Hakeem, I didn't speak or move my hands, I just sat staring at him until he squatted down, his hands resting on the tub.
"Move them "he ordered but I didn't flinch or move, he looked into my eyes and rolled up his sleeves then put his hand inside the tub. I felt his hand touch my thigh and an electric sensation ran up my spine as I tried not to make a sound. His hand went further up but as he was about to reach my center I closed my legs, trapping his hand.
"Open them "he demanded fiercely, his eyes still locked on mine, when I didn't obey the brought his face closer to mine and my heart started racing, I was suddenly weak and nervous.
"I said open them!"he repeated and I found myself obeying like his puppy. Slowly I parted my legs and he grinned wickedly at me then his hand went further up until he touched my entrance and a gasp involuntarily escaped my mouth.
Hakeem seemed pleased by this because his smile widened as he started rubbing my fold and teasing around my clit. My breathing was rapidly changing as the rubbed faster then put his finger inside me and I moaned in pleasure then arched my back and closed my eyes, feeling his finger curl inside and start massaging was unbelievable, I had never felt like that before and I couldn't help moaning as I grinded against his now two fingers inside me. He was jamming deeper and faster and I was now screaming and hoping I wasn't too loud ,I felt the pressure mounting and my body tightening as if I was about to explode then suddenly he stopped. I opened my eyes and looked at him in bewilderment as he stood up, his face smiling as he grabbed a towel wiped his hand and walked out of the bathroom.
What just happened??? And how could he stop at such a moment?? I had been so close, so damn close, and now I lay weak and frustrated in the tub.

As the sun was about to set I decided to go for a walk, the river was always peaceful in the early evenings and I would sometimes go there to clear my head. Of course I wouldn't be allowed to go alone so Kiki and Joshua followed, even though he was the chief of security I had found that he was the one guarding me most of the time, I had no permanent body guard yet because I always chased the ones appointed to me, I just hated being followed around. Kiki I couldn't chase because she was like a sister and a friend.
We reached the river and the water looked so wonderful
"I want to swim "I said as I started untying my hair
"That's not a good idea princess" said Joshua but I ignored him
"Kiki please untie my dress, Joshua you can stay and watch if you want "I said daring him and he quickly disappeared but I knew he was nearby.
Taking off my dress I stepped into the river and started bathing myself in the cool water, I even washed my hair.
"Princess, it's getting chilly, you might catch a cold "Kiki said to me and with a sigh I stepped out of the river, dressed up and we started heading back, shortly Joshua reappeared and started following behind. Upon reaching home I found that Amina had already told the chefs what to prepare and they had started. I really didn't mind and just walked to my room then picked up a book to read until I was called for dinner which was awkward and uncomfortable for me as I found myself unable to look Hakeem in the eyes and he seemed to be enjoying how uncomfortable his presence and his stares were making me. I was still wondering why he had touched me like that when he had made it clear that he didn't want me and was content with Amina.
The moment the King and Queen left the table I also left and practically ran to my room. I really had to get it together, I shouldn't be allowing him get to me like this.
Two days later I was in the garden when Joshua appeared before me, the weird part was that he seemed nervous.
"Spit it out Joshua ".I said and he slowly revealed a novel from behind his back, it was my novel and I had misplaced it a few days earlier "you found my novel! "I smiled and accepted it "where did I leave it? ".
"Ah, am so sorry.. My sister came to visit, you had left the book right here in the garden and she took it, she loves to read but doesn't have many books. Please do not punish her he said and got down on one knee
Stealing was a very serious offence, especially stealing from the palace but Joshua was a good man .
"Get up, I will not report this incident but your sister should be asking.. "I said and handed back the book "tell her she can keep it ".
"No no, that's not necessary... "
"I insist "I said with a reassuring smile
"Thank you my princess "he said and accepted the book.
"Now sit and tell me more about this sister of yours "I told him and he hesitantly followed my instruction and sat down.
Hearing about his family was really nice and I found myself laughing at some of the stories he was telling me. After a while I went back inside and the moment I stepped in I was yanked and pinned against the wall, Hakeem's face just inches away from mine.
