Captured For The Sultan’s Pleasure

Roksolana stood up the moment she heard someone clear their throat, and saw Jamal standing close to her. Her first thought was to take out the knife and kill him with it, but her rational mind reminded her that it was a small knife and it wouldn’t do much damage if she intended to kill the man in one go. Besides, the man seemed to be looking at her intently, like he was searching her thoughts. Roksolana decided that it would be better not to alert the man about her motive, she needed to succeed on her first try.

Jamal looked at Roksolana and wondered why she was so lost in thoughts, even though he was standing in front of her. She would have slapped him or stabbed him every other day, so why not today? If he was to look deep into her soul, he might find that she still wanted to kill him. She was probably just thinking about a much more gruesome way to do it. Jamal decided that it would be better to leave her alone right now since he wasn’t in the mood to fight with her.

“Do not leave this room without my permission.” He instructed her, then walked out.

Jamal walked back to Sodeeq’s house but was surprised not to find the man in the room. He sat down and waited for him, thinking that he might have gone to make arrangements for the plan. The man came in about thirty minutes later, looking surprised to find Jamal in his house.

“Sultan,” Sodeeq said in greeting.

“Where did you go?” Jamal asked.

“I went to make arrangements. By the way, I think it is almost time,” Sodeeq said.

They went over the plans again. When Jamal was sure that everything was in place, they moved out. When they got to where Lady Miriam lives, Sodeeq stood by the door while Jamal walked into the house without knocking. He looked around and saw everything intact. He walked to Lady Miriam’s room and opened the door, he was surprised to find the woman sleeping soundly. He looked around but didn’t find any suspicious activity or things. He was about to leave when he heard Miriam speak.

“My Sultan. What are you doing here? Did you change your mind?” She asked him.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Jamal didn’t know what to say or do. He possibly couldn’t tell her he was there to arrest her and her supposed lover and he couldn’t lie that he had come to be with her when he wasn’t even in the mood for sex. Jamal knew she would want to have sex with him if he stayed. He was still thinking about how to get out of the mess Roksolana had put him in when a voice spoke behind him.

“There was an intruder in the surrounding area. So the Sultan was worried about your safety, so he came to check on you.”

Jamal breathed a sigh of relief, thanking Allah that Sodeeq had bailed him out of the mess. He watched as Miriam eyed Sodeeq and hissed at him.

“And what are you doing in my room? What if I was naked? Get out,” Miriam commanded the general.

Jamal turned to Sodeeq who looked furious and ready to strike Miriam. Jamal signaled for the man to calm down and leave them alone, which Sodeeq obeyed immediately. Jamal grimaced at how hard Sodeeq had slammed the door when he was out. He had never understood why the two never got along with each other. The moment Sodeeq was out of the house, Miriam hugged him. Jamal moved her away from him gently. He moved to the door to get away from her.

“Don’t go. I won’t be able to sleep, knowing that there is an intruder around,” Miriam told him.

Jamal felt guilty, knowing that he was responsible for her feeling scared. And if there was anyone who needed to be blamed, it was Roksolana. Why had he listened to her in the first place? He should have known better that she would do anything to be free from being a maid to Miriam. She must have also thought of him as a stupid person who believes in anything he was told, and he had acted like such.

“Please stay. We don’t have to do anything,” Miriam spoke again.

Jamal looked at her and saw that she was shivering. Deciding that he would probably kill Roksolana if he went back to his house now, he walked back to Miriam. He held her by the hand and sat her down by the bed, motioning for her to lie down. He watched as she obeyed.

“Aren’t you sleeping?” Miriam asked.

“It’s okay. I’ll just watch you sleep.” He told her.

“But you need to rest too,” Miriam told him.

After much argument from her, he undressed and got into bed with her. He made sure to stay at the side of the bed so that his body would not have to touch Miriam’s. It was the first time he would spend the night with a woman or even sleep on the same bed with a woman. Whenever he was done having sex with a woman, he left them and go back to his house no matter how late it was. But all thanks to Roksolana, he was forced to spend the night with a woman. And that too, it was someone who really wanted sex with him.

When Jamal was sure that Miriam was fast asleep, he got out of bed. He thought it should be alright since she was sleeping already, so he left. He closed the door and picked only two guards to escort him home, leaving the rest of them to guard Lady Miriam. As he walked away from the house, he didn’t notice the dark figure trying to get into the house.
