Roza
"Welcome back" the former queen smiles hugging her younger son the prince Zhang
The royal family shares their greeting before proceeds towards the dinning table
I sigh in relief my shift had already ended therefore there was no need to stay here any longer moreover l was avoiding the king since that moment we occurred. memories swam delightful through my mind as soon the hand traces through the lips
A smile creeps at the corner of my before the reality hits me like a brick a
a frown appears
"Who is the cause of thy frown" another guard Ruth approaches me
"Nothing you should worry about" walking away
"I mean no harm"
"Yet l do please don't step any closer"
"Reason with me"
"Ruth"
"Roza "
"The palace has eyes that won't hesitate to distinguish your life"
"I beg to disagree"
"l have no interest at your romantic gestures "
"Roza no one cares but goes around the palace"
"But this is no place for that" l demand
"Who would have the time to interfere into personal relationships"
The king my mind utter l fear his word held darkness
"Pardon me l must go"
"Right your shift has ended shall l escort you-"
"No! please don't bother"
He nods
I hoped he hadn't seen that.
The cold air welcomes me strolling my way out the royal premises my muscles relaxes however the air felt intense waiting to be unraveled
A cap awaits for me however a cloth covers me inhaling the unpleasant smell in shock unable to fight back my throat remains dry
My body weakness, unable to fight the impostor but makes me inhale further more yet l wondered why wasn't there guards around as l soon drown into darkness.
My head thuds painfully as l slightly waken my eyes only to be found in what look like the dungeon my heart raced in fear
I wasn't tied up but guards were on each side guarding my brow knit in confusion but soon turned into gasps seeing Routh tied up in chains
Everything now made sense
"Darling your awake"stroking my cheeks gently
"Your highness"
He face hardens
"Zion what are you doing"
"Darling l only speak once yet you seem to underestimate me"
"please he had nothing to with this" gaze upon he's unconscious body
"You dared to disobey me Darling"
"Then punish me instead "
"I wouldn't dare hurt you "he kneels "but your actions will affect people lives"
I cupped his face gazing deeply into his blue eyes please "Zion let him go, for me"
He hums walking towards the cell unlocking his chains before walking back to me lifting me up
"Zion"
"Harsh now you must be tired "
I nod holding his shirt for support feeling dizzy
"No need to fear Darling your safe in my my embrace"
My eyelids betray me as l fall into a deep slumper.
