The apartment slowly became silent as the king rushed out locking the door behind him
I inhaled deep before beginning to explore his home he's scent lingered through the apartment hypnotizing my sense leading me towards his bedroom
"Should l" debating to go in
His words echoed through my head however l couldn't just go into his room it was wrong l sighed retreating back to my room
My gaze wonder upon his picture frame Zion looked daring gracing everything he was meant to be king my fingers trailed upon his features the painting was incredible l arched for his presence
"Marvelous is in it" a Sudden voice echo's behind me
The hairs immediately stands on my skin, lungs begging for air. fear creeps through my neck trembling at the voice it could not be her right?
"Surprised? , so am l peasant"
I gulp meeting her gaze the queen herself looked perfect as always she smiled freely slowly proceeding forward the room became smaller with each step she took
"Your majesty "l whispered averting my steps
"My, my , lm glad you haven't forgotten the title l hold since you are warming my husband's bed"
"I-"
"Was it fun? , the sex"
"I never slept with the king "
"Don't dare lie to me little girl ,l know my husband is splendid in bed"
I cringe continuing to avert my step
"Stop!" the queen raised her voice demanding me
"I do not intend to know how long but it shall end today" gripping my chin forcefully "speak peasant"
However my throat dried
She smirked" you don't even have the guts to stand up to me" suddenly pushing harshly towards the door widening it
I groan in pain afraid to meet the queen green orbs "stay away from me"
She chuckled closing the door behind "how hilarious , you couldn't even stay away from a married man" the queen slapped me
Pain rushes through me however she wasn't done
"What is it that you desire little girl, money ?"
"Zion" l whispered
She smirks "foolish little girl"
"The king does not love you, you know that, he's yet to set his eyes upon you-"
"Silence!, Little girl you don't know me or the power l hold" gripping my neck
My body trys yet to no veil her grip only tighten" leave me!"
"Never ,l won't let you destroy the kingdom reputation, perhaps my husband needed fresh meat, l'll forgive him when your eliminated "
"Please" begging for air "please s-show mercy "feeling my body become numb
"Why should l''
"I'll stay away please stop" l pead for my life
The Queens grip loosen causing me to immediately gasp for air my body yelp in pain, trembling harshly she smiled genuinely towering over me ,l never stood a chance and she made sure to remind me
Tears escape unwillingly what did l intend would happen, l was so stupid to think l would stay in the king's embrace forever it pained me more that my heart continued to seek for him
Zion he wasn't mine to begin with l had no obligation to fight for him he was hers always hers
"Disappear and l'll show mercy" the queens voice echoed harshly through me
"I will Disappear" l whispered
