Chapter 34
I nervously walked into the king’s chamber as I sighted knight, Empress and emperor all sitted, where they all looking for me?, Why where they looking for me.
I nervously bowed to them all not knowing what to do next, maybe to sit on the floor or just stand.
“So my Nobles I present to you pearl, my newest slave!” He announced me as my eyes frowned, how could he call me his slave!, I just wanted to denounce it at once I am not a slave and I will never accept that.
“She is a very beautiful one!, Where did you get her from?” An emperor asked as Theodore signed.
“Does that really matter?” Theodore asked in disgust.
“Yes it matters if we have to buy her!” The empress sitting by the side of the emperor said as my eyes shone in shock.
Why would he want to sell me all of a sudden!?, Selling me means that Archer will never find me because I might be going to a far far away Kingdom, I thought he wanted to use me as a bite to capture archer?, So why the change of mind, what’s his plan this time?.
“Well I ain’t selling her to you forever it’s just for a while” He said coldly as tears streamed down my cheeks, I am sure he has bad plans.
“I hope she is not stubborn?, Hope she is submissive” the emperor with two parts bald head said as he scanned my body from head to toe.
“Wait I know this lady!, She is a queen the wife of King Archer of Guham!” The knight announced in shock as King Theo stood from his throne in anger.
“What nonsense are you saying you old fool!” Theodore shouted in anger as his lips vibrated uncontrollably.
“Theodore I know what I am saying, I attended the engagement ceremony” the knight said looking closely at me, for some reasons I was happy at least I won’t be sold again.
“Theodore is this true because I Know that you’re enemy with the king of Guham” The emperor said as Theodore glared angrily at the knight.
“And yes!, There is a news going on about the missing Queen, young lady are you the wife of King Archer?” The empress asked softly as tears rolled down my cheeks not knowing if I should answer or not.
“Leave this place slave!!” Theodore yelled as I hurried out in tears.
Like seriously he planned on selling me off!, Can he be more ruthless.
“Theodore you know that what you were about doing is punishable by law!, Just imagine if the knight didn’t notice this we would have bought and enslaved a queen!” The empress yelled as king theodore ran his fingers through his hair a little bit scared that they might report him for violating a queen that isn’t his property… Thank God the slave wear covered her skin.
“Let’s just leave this place, Theodore this is the last time we are stepping out foots in this kingdom and if we find out that you haven’t released the innocent queen we will have to take strict actions trust me” The emperor spat in anger as they all left the castle.
There is no way King Theodore will release pearl when he hasn’t achieved his aims, this time he was ready to face any consequences, he can’t let archer go free after his father killed his father, he has planned to avenge his father’s death and take over Guham to make him more powerful and respected.
King Theodore angrily walked into his room to see his mistress Ciara lying sexily on the bed wearing a transparent yellow dress.
“My king what’s your plan with the queen you kidnapped or should I say took?” Ciara asked as she sat up worriedly staring at king theo who obviously didn’t want to talk “I don’t just want to lose you, I know the repercussions of what you’re doing and…”
“Shut up Ciara and leave my room immediately!, I don’t think I need you here I have a lot going on in my head!” King Theo yelled angrily as he pulled off his robe.
Ciara was already used to his yellings and anger issues so she didn’t flinch or get scared.
He bought her five years ago from a kingdom called Noviran were she served as a slave, she was happy at first when he bought her because she thought being a king’s Mistress means being treated as a queen expecially as he wasn’t married, but that was a different case entirely!.
She was more like a sex slave to him, yeah she was also a wife figure to him because she represents him in anything he needed a wife for but deep down she knew that he saw her as his dominant.
Ciara had a little pity for pearl because she knows that Pearl doesn’t deserve what she passed through as a slave coupled with the fact that Pearl was never present when the whole issue came up!, Pearl was married 5 months ago and she can’t be suffering because of what happened 4 years ago!.
Ciara also pitied her because she was pregnant and she rather needs to be pampered and not tortured.
Ciara walked down the hallway to the abandoned room pearl was kept as she opened the door to see her crying with her face facing the ceiling.
I noticed a presence as I turned to see a young beautiful Lady in a fancy transparent dress, she stared at me with pity as she walked up to me on my bed.
“Hey come on! You can’t be crying because of Theodore!” She muttered as she sat beside the bed, it was quite awkward because I didn’t know her and I have never seen her in this castle before, I looked down at her dress wondering how she wore such slutty outfit without being insecure.
“Who are you?” I asked softly as I wiped my tears.
“Oh! Quite weird you don’t know me, oh yeah you were brought to this castle yesterday so I get it… Well, I am king Theodore’s mistress” she replied in a smile, she is kind of goofy but seems nice.
“Ohhk nice meeting you”
“Well, I can see that you’re really being treated badly here but you shouldn’t be crying, you have to be strong because I am sure you already know that he is just doing all this to trap king archer… Look sweetheart, I am not also happy staying here with king theodore because I was bought to serve him!, I have dreams to achieve but I can’t achieve them because I am trapped but that doesn’t mean I will kill myself or cry all day!?” She said as she signed “I am not supposed to be telling you all this but I think you need to hear it to make you stronger, king Archer is sure coming for you and you have to be strong for him and your unborn baby at least” she said making me smile, she must also be going through a lot in her mind.
“I think you made me feel much better today, thanks a lot… May I please know your name?” I asked politely as she smiled inwardly.
“I am Ciara and you are Pearl, I will have to leave right now before I get caught” she said standing up as she rubbed my hair and left, she is just so lovely I think she is the only nice person in this castle.

“My king the soldiers are still awake and they won’t let us pass” Otis whispered to King Archer who signed expecting that.
“Give them the pounds in the little bag so that we can leave immediately, we have less time now” king archer replied as Otis walked back to his horse and brought out the money throwing it to them.
The soldiers turned to one another and suddenly brushed into laughter which got king archer and his guards confused.
“Do you really think you can bribe us with petty money king archer!?” The huge dark head soldiers asked walking closer to them.
If only it was right to just ride past them without permission he would he done that since.
“Otis give them more money” king archer said softly as Otis threw another bag to them.
“Well, this is a whole lot of money for I and my soldiers but we can’t still let you in, King Theodore has warned us strictly not to allow you come in if you’re with your guards” the head soldiers announced as the guards turned to King Archer to see his reaction even if they ain’t exactly seeing him clearly.
“Except you are going in alone to face king theodore” he completed as king archer wrinkled his nose.
He knows that Theodore was upto no good, him going in alone means that he will easily be killed and it would be unwise for him to go in without being guarded.
If he wants to get Pearl out of there then he really needs to be safe also, he can’t risk going into Theo’s den without his guards, he needed a plan.
“How about I send sluts to you all that will serve you for a whole week, I know that you people don’t get enough of women staying here” king archer said hoping they fall for it but unfortunately their minds where made up.
The thought of him going back to Guham and leaving his wife at Prussiate a little more longer ached his heart, he wasn’t ready to leave without getting his wife.
“My king the soldiers are falling one after the other!” Arlo muttered snapping king archer out of his thoughts.
He looked up to see all the soldiers lying on the floor unconsciously or maybe dead, he was shocked because they haven’t done anything to the soldiers that could cause that so what’s happening!.
“Hail thee the king of Guham” a feminine voice interrupted.
