Sold to the Cold-Hearted King

ASSYRIA ROYAL CASTLE

*****

The maids were arranging the room King Zain asked them to tidy up. Princess Tessa and Princess Royalty sat down on the soft bed touching their forehead.

“I feel like throwing up,”The two of them said at the same time.

“Ahhh!”Promise shouted.

“I don’t know why I am feeling restless, I feel like staying under a pool of water”Tessa uttered.

“Don’t worry you will get those things very soon.”Royalty uttered, petting her softly.

King Zain walked in shortly. Everyone stood up on their feet immediately as he stepped in.

“Your Highness”they greeted.

“I called a general meeting with the ministers ,,, I will be right back. So for the meantime, take care of them”He said and left quickly.

“Take care of them”His guards murmured.

“What’s he trying to say, should we take care of them by giving them food, fruit and shelter or we should take care of them by torturing them? ” A guard said, confused.

“What did they mean by torturing?” Tessa thought, looking at their faces one after the other.

“Didn’t you get what your highness just said?”Raine muttered angrily, walking inside the room.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“Lady Raine”The guards greeted with their heads bowed.

“Torture them”Raine commanded.

“As you say Lady Raine”They bowed.

“What are you doing??,, Is that not your highness that just left?”Royalty asked, burning in fury.

“Yes! He is, any problem?”A guard asked.

“Oh I see, your hearing has been damaged. He said take care of them till I come back so where did you hear torture them until I come back.”Royalty yelled.

“Who is this trashy broom?”Raine scoffed.

“Take the eldest and torture her in the torturing room. I will take care of this spoiled rat.”Raine muttered walking closer to Royalty.

“Don’t touch my sister’s, I will take the beating” Tessa uttered, struggling to get free from the guards.

Raine scoffed”Take her away”Raine shouted. Royalty couldn’t hold her anger any more. She took a few steps closer to Raine and slapped her on the face.

“Touch my sister and see the real me”She muttered, gritting her teeth.

Tessa was astonished by her sudden anger.” Oh she’s pregnant” she murmurs.

“How dare you touch my face,”Raine growled loudly.

“You feel that”Royalty laughed, heretically.

“What are you still waiting for, go and torture that bastard”Raine roared angrily.

“I will be fine Royalty”Tessa screamed, while being dragged away.

“You this Rotten Monster”Royalty cursed, pulling her hair angrily.

Royalty was about to hit Raine again but Tessa’s loud scream of pain made her stop. Princess Promise looked traumatized by the whole situation, she could be spotted sitting alone at the edge right angle of the room.

Tessa’s loud scream could be heard for the fifth time, Royalty looked shocked. She looked bittered.

“Tessa is innocent and nice,”Royalty cried. Tessa screamed came up again. Which is really running royalty mad already.

“This is one of my paybacks”Raine thought, with an evil smirk curved up her lips. Zain falling in love with you just by staring at your portrait is really driving me mad”She thought.

“Stop this nonsense, stop torturing my sister. Please”princess promise ran and knee in front of Raine. Royalty shed more tears, in light of the fact that promise has never begged anyone in her entire life.

“Please, let my sister go” Royalty begged. On her knees with her hands joined together.

“Wow! So you can beg “Raine laugh heretically. Royalty panicked when she couldn’t hear Tessa’s screams but the lashes could be heard.

“Please, please!!, Please!!!. Let my sister go please”Royalty cried.

King Zain opened the door shortly and lightly. Promise ran to hold his leg immediately he stepped his foot in.

“Please, Save my sister please… “She cried.

“What do you mean?, and what are you doing here Raine?”He asked.

“What’s she talking about?”He asked another question.

“She has my sister being tortured “Royalty uttered miserably.

“What??,,”King Zain exclaimed dumbfounded.

“You did what Raine”King Zain asked.

Raine ignored his words and stormed out of the room in tears. King Zain ran to the torturing room and barged in. His heart ached after seeing Tessa’s condition.

“You fools”King Zain roared, rushing to touch Tessa.

“She passed out,”Royalty murmured.

“Tessa! Tessa!!”… King Zain turned around in anger.

“Untie her Samuel, go and get the castle physician… Tell him to come to my chamber within five minutes”King Zain screamed.

“Why are you sluggish Samuel?”He screamed.

“Why is he acting as if he knows her before, he’s even acting as if he loves her”Samuel and Royalty thought. Promise couldn’t think of anything but seeing Tessa in such a situation made her heart heavy, she cried heavily.

“Please don’t leave me Tessa”King Zain murmured, carrying her in a bridal style.

King Zain couldn’t get himself anymore,,, ordering Raine to be put in the dungeon is the best thing he did. He really wished he could just stay in with the person he loves and share her pain. He smiled after remembering his younger sister(Fiona) words when he didn’t accept Levi because he was not from a royal family.

“By the time you fall in love, you will feel the same pain and heart aches I felt for torturing Levi,,, Your pain will be worse than mine” . Actually, he tortured Levi out of frustration, That’s the main reason why she uttered such a statement.

Seeing Tessa in such a situation made him mad, his heart felt as if a sharped needle was stuck in. He kept pacing to and fro outside his chamber. The door opened shortly and the physician came out with a smile at the corner of his lips.

“How is she?”King Zain asked him a question.

The physician smiled again”congratulations your highness she’s fine and the babies are fine”The physician uttered, smiling widely.

King Zain’s brain widened in shock, his immune system widened in shock. Every part of his body widened in shock”BABIES”He murmured falling on his knees.

“She’s married”He murmured again, touching his chest in pain.

“Arrgggh”he screamed out loud. A single tear rolled down his cheek.
