BETROTHED TO THE ALPHA

King Archer and his guards turned in fright as they saw a feminine figure covered in black clothe, they couldn’t see her face even a bit and that got king archer scared.

“Who are you and what are you doing here?” King Archer asked trying not to be scared as she giggled in the weirdest way ever heard.

“I am someone no one knows, I belong everywhere my king, I don’t have a home” that sounded very creepy to the king who was already losing his mind, he has never been so scared before.

“What do you want miss?” He managed to say as the lady walked closer making the guards slide their swords out.

“Come on!, You shouldn’t be scared I can’t hurt you because I am here to help you even the knife you brought out can’t kill me” she said sounding cold as if she wasn’t moving her mouth.

“What do you mean by you want to help us, I don’t think we need your help” kind archer wished he could see the face of the woman making him scared.

“You need my help but you wouldn’t know, but hence you don’t need my help then I won’t help you” the lady said walking away.

King Archer turned back to see the soldiers all awake standing up and that was when it dawned to him that the mysterious lady had helped them and would have been more helpful.

They all turned back but noticed that she had gone, how possible was that!?.

“Let’s go guard’s!” King Archer said as they rode away, king archer was so angry with him self for missing that opportunity, he would have saved his wife instead of letting her spend another day with king theodore.

TWO DAYS LATER

I woke up after crying all night long thinking of a way to escape but nothing intelligent came up, I swung my legs down my bed as I squealed in pains, at times I forget that I am pregnant and that’s crazy.

I wish I was still in Guham, by now sage would have served my coffee and prepared my bath.

I made my way out of the room not knowing exactly where to go or what to do, I just walked down the hallway.

“Where are you going to slave!” That hard voice came from behind as I turned to see the aggressive Ezra’s face, he never had a good look.

“I…I…I was…” I don’t know the reason I’m stuttering because I haven’t commited any crime that would warrant punishment.

“Come with me, you have a chore to do” he said as he led me down the stairs, he shouldn’t be calling it a chore when he knows that he wants to punish me.

I followed him with different thoughts racing through my mind, I was still recovering from his touture and he still wants to continue!.

We got to the garden, a beautiful one but with lots of over grown plants, maybe no one actually visits the garden.

If this is my work for the morning then I am okay, with it at least I get a me time.

“So this is your chore for this morning, make sure you trim the flowers to a beautiful shape, I won’t like it if you mess this up like you did to the Lilies… The tools are here” he pointed at the back of a daffodil and made his way out ” you have only an hour to finish this work!” He called out as he exited.

Now I was alone, me and my thoughts!

I took the trimming tools out as I started with the daffodils, I trimmed it carefully in other not to make any funny mistakes.

I was so focused on my work until I heard a footstep but immediately I tried peeping the person ran into the flowers, that was really creepy , I was scared to go check who ever it was but still decided to defeat my fear and go check who it was.

“Hey!!, Slave queeeen! The king said you should come in for your medications!” A very young maid had the guts to interrupt me and also called me a slave!, I didn’t just want to put my mind to what she called me all I wanted to see was the person hiding behind the hibiscus flower.

“Now!” She added as I signed and followed her without seeing the person.

Zinnia sat on her bed worriedly, king archer was back and she was scared that she might be exposed soon!, She hasn’t been able to see fox out of pride, she knew that he must have a plan.

She pulled off her crown and threw it to the floor angrily.

“I don’t think I deserve this again!, How could mere commoners make me this scared!” She muttered angrily with a tightened fist as her door swung open revealing agent fox who had a smile on his face.

“Why is my queen looking this stressed out!” He said as he sat beside her on the bed ” I really have missed you” Fox said caressing her hair.

“We are in trouble fox!, What are you doing about it!?” Zinnia faced him worriedly.

“We are not in trouble zinnia, I have got everything covered” zinnia stared at him curiously expecting him to tell her his plans.

“What’s your plan?”

“Just watch out Zinnia, trust me on this” Fox said standing up ” I will leave now, I don’t want to get caught with you because even the guards now suspects us” Fox said as he took her hands and pecked her nuckles as he exited.

The guards suspecting them means that they are no longer safe!, Soon their affair would be heard by the king.

Sage stood by the pillar as she watched fox walked out of Zinnia’s room, she wasn’t surprised anyways but she was surprise that he had the guts to go in when the king was around.

She watched fox leave the hallway as she came out and continued her Journey to the king’s chamber as she was sent to massage him.

I got to my room to see the coffee sitting on my table and some yummy dessert, I didn’t really expect a proper meal from them.

I hurried and sat down ready to devour my meal as thoughts of the unseen person at the garden reoccurred in my head, that was creepy and I really wanted to see the person.

“Hey what are you thinking about!” King Theodore said snapping me out of my thoughts as he nobly sat on the couch staring closely at me “I heard that Archer tried crossing the border two days ago” what!, That was dangerous!, Hope he didn’t get into a fight!, Hope he is safe also “I think he is scared of coming in alone, I told my soldiers not to allow him come in with guards, he is too scared to come in alone!” He laughed out with a smirk on his face.

Why is he just so Trickish, Archer coming in here without his guards means that he would die and I will her leave this place, that can’t happen!.

“Archer can ne…”

“You don’t have the right to talk!, You remain silent until I ask for your opinions!” He yelled making me flinch.

I watched him leave the room with a frown on his face, is this really why he came to this room?… He doesn’t seize a chance of upsetting me!.

I finished up my coffee and the dessert quickly and lay back on the bed, really needed to utilize my little opportunity to rest I might not get this opportunity again.

I curled up on the bed as flashes of how my parents got burnt and how I was forced to get married came crawling into my head, my first sex and torture, the news of getting married too! All this where all dramatic!.

My mind drifted back to when I hated king archer so much that I nearly cursed the baby he planted in me but now I am missing him!, I suddenly wanted to hug and kiss him, I wanted the aggressive sex that would end up with him pampering me.

Yeah he never admitted it but I think staying here made me realize his love for me, I never expected him to come looking for me, I thought he didn’t care about me.

The thought of him getting jealous when King Theodore took me in the mask party got me smiling, he really looked like an insecure teenage boy.

He never wanted to admit his love for me because he felt like a softy maybe, he wanted me to fear him but after the months of getting scared of his yellings and freaking out, I got used to it.

I can’t just wait to go back to Guham and have a nice rest and meet my loved ones, Seren and Rosamund will really be worried and sage sure will be feeling guilty, she worries a lot.

“Why is my queen smiling when she is in danger” a sweet feminine voice interrupted my thoughts as I turned out to see…

Wait what!!, My look alike!, How is that possible! She looked exactly like me as if she was my twin sister!.
