Chapter 21 I want the king, and you took him
Valerie pov
Wait was going on ,I tried my best to understand everything but it all seems like a dream to me ,Can someone please wake me up from this nightmare What the heck is going on .
We arrived at a door and one of the guards opened it and I walked into the room ,I agree the room was well decorated but this was not what I wanted ,I want my life back what's going on here.
I was about to speak to one of the guards, When I heard the door closed ,I wasn't comfortable ,I walked to and fro but still I couldn't find a way of escape .
I was getting depressed with the fact that I wasn't going to see my family again not even my boyfriend Eric , finally I heard someone knocking on the door, At first I thought it was the king but I was surprised that it was one of the servants at the palace .
" The king sent this to you , He instructed that I should help you get dressed for the dinner tonight "
" Tell him am not interested "
I was about to close the door but she blocked it with her hand .
" My lady please ,I don't think you understand what's going on here. If you don't get dress and come join the king for dinner my job will be at stake here Please I beg off you "
" Am sorry too, But I can't do thing against my wish ,Go back to the king and tell him to go fk himself , Am not interested in having dinner with him I hope am clear on this matter "
" Yes my lady "
" Please stop calling me that am not your lady I beg of you "
She quickly ran out of the room ,I sat on the bed angry and tried ,I just want to go home to my family why can't he just understand , I was murmuring to Myself when the door opened .
"I believe you are not deaf go and tell the king am not having dinner with him "
" I don't think there is any need for that val "
I raised my head up to see who it was lo and behold it was the king .
" Let me go ,Let me out of here I don't love you please let me "
" I asked to have dinner with you but you rejected me so I decided to bring the dinner to you "
" What "
I was still trying to process everything, When some servants walked into the room with a table and two chair in less than ten seconds the table was set ,I was speechless .
" Please my Lord, Let me go please "
" Sorry I can't "
" Why , What have I done to you "
" I like you , Trust me it's very rare for me to like something but when I do I hardly let go of that thing "
" I am not a thing for Zeus sakes am a human and not a thing please let me go I beg of you no matter what you do I can't fall in love with you let me go "
" That's the problem I can't let you go infact you are not going anywhere , The earlier you learn the better for us "
" Let me go "
" I can't "
" Please "
" Sit dinner is served "
I was so hungry, But I really don't want to eat anything with this person sitting in front of me .
" Am not hungry "
" No problems you can watch me eat "
" Ah why are you so unreasonable I don't want to be here ,I don't want this kind of life this riches ,power , wealth I don't want it ,I want a simple life I want peace that's all "
" Peace I will give you , All I want is you ,I want you to be my wife , My queen and the mother of my children "
" Why can't you just understand ,I don't want you infact am in love with someone else "
" Boom!!"
I heard a loud sound on the table that almost frightened life out of me .
" I forbid you to ever mention anything about that man again in my presence ,I believe you know what I can do ,just a snap of my finger and his a dead man , Don't push me val ,don't push "
" And if I do what will happen "
" I bet you won't like to know , Please let's eat in peace the food is getting cold , tyomorrow the Royal Tailor will come to measure you for your wedding dress so get ready I wouldn't like them to make any mistakes I simple want a perfect dress for my beautiful wife "
" Please let me go "
" Don't make me repeat myself again, I can't let you go , You are mine now the thought of sharing you with someone else is like a taboo to me val I want you so I will advice you to accept me wholeheartedly "
" Never I wouldn't "
" No problems then "
" Please, I have a request to make "
" Go ahead "
" Can I have a word with my sister please I beg of you "
" That can be arranged but don't try to play smart or try to escape you can escape the four walls of this castle even if you try "
He didn't even finish his food he got up and left my room ,I couldn't sleep all through the night I was waiting patiently for bethel to come .
Finally morning came I already took a shower, And I was waiting in my room just then I heard a knock on the door I quickly got up to see who it was, I was so happy when I saw bethel but I couldn't say order wise for her , She had this anger look on her face but managed to masked it up with a smile .
" Bethel thank God you came "
She came into the room and was busy looking round the room .
" Bethel you need to get me out of here "
" So this is it , I should have known that this is what you wanted , You pretend never to care about wanting the king finally you got him "
" Huh, Bethel what are talking about you know I never wanted this kind of life I simply wanted to be Eric please bethel don't talk like this "
" lies !!lies lies lies just stop the pretence you wanted to have the king to yourself and you have succeeded ,I should have known but I was so blind that I couldn't see through you Valerie "
" Bethel stop "
" No why should I stop tell me why should I stop , You are nothing but a fox I hate you Valerie ,I hate you so much . But let me make something clear we are now enemies, When you see me outside don't have mercy on me because I wont have pity on you , You will pay deceiving me I hate you "
With that she walked out of the room I was left speechless , How cruel can it be to someone who you once love now became your enemy tears started flowing down my eyes.
