2024-10-29 19:42:56The sweat on him, from his face dropped on her cleavage as he went on, his feet shaking and a sensation running through his brain. He jerked and she moaned, held him tighter with her feet and her hands, eyes closed. He was relieved and sank on the bed beside her, both panting like lizards that fell from a high tree.
"You have always been a sweet lady" King Zakiza told his newly found love Lume.
"I don't know, but I feel your people will not like me" Lume worriedly said but the king wouldn't have her spoil the moment as he chuckled, grabbing her by the waist. "And why is that?" he asked.
"I'm from Okute, a neighboring land in dispute with your land. How can two enemies come together to agree? My father will hate me and the King of Okute will kill me" She appeared disturbed and wanted to climb off the bed but the king held her back and laughed, "I know how worried you are but I like it if people see the bright side of everything; I mean this might be a way the gods want us to bring our lands together in agreement. If I show my interest to get married to you and my people frown at it I will then be forced to have a meeting with your King, through that meeting our conflicts will be resolved. I have nothing against the King of Okute and having seen what I admire in his land I'm going for it" The king kept smiling.
"You are confident in yourself. Too much confidence in oneself can be dangerous" she advised.
"Not when one is willing to risk it all for what they love. I love you and I want you, not just to warm my bed but to be my wife and sit beside me on the throne as my Queen and co-leader of this great Kingdom" The King got off the bed and she sat up, watching him as he walked straight to the wall and unhung a sword, swung it twice and walked back to occupy a space on the bed, seated beside her he allowed her feel the sharpness of the sword.
"This is a Chaka sword, it's rare" she said while running her fingers on it. The King was surprised at her level of exposure and he held her hand, looking into her eyes.
"That's why I love you Lume, you are intelligent, smart, kind and loving. I would do anything to keep you beside me forever. This sword was given to my late father as a present by his own wife the night that he was killed by the same wife. Each time I look at it it reminds me that I shouldn't give room to peace in my heart until I bring that woman down. She must pay with her own life""According to my people they believe your step mother was right in killing your father. They believe her son Akiza, as he was called should have taken the throne of your father, not you" said Lume.
"I'm the first son!!!" shouted the King and Lume covered her face with her palm. One thing she knew him with was his temper. He apologized immediately and couldn't find words to express himself further.
"You need to allow peace into your heart" said Lume while removing her hand from her face, "You need to accept what happened and learn to be happy Zakiza. I'm here for you. I should be enough to make you completely happy" She allowed herself to sob.
That same night King Zakiza of Akozo invited his late father's adviser and when he arrived he told him his mind to marry Lume..When his late father's adviser heard of the one the King wanted to get married to and where she came from he was moved aback and he wanted to know why the King would want to bring disgrace upon his land by marrying a lady from their enemy Kingdom Okute but the King had finality in his voice as he continued to insist he was getting married to her. The Adviser had no choice but to bow to the King's decision.
When Lume was on her way to her Kingdom the next day she went missing. The King of Okute would not have it so; he had been told in the past of the ongoing relationship between a daughter of the land of Okute and the King of the land of Akozo and he had sworn to do the unimaginable if the rumor was true and when he found out the truth he sent men to kidnap Lume but to do that in the land of Akozo; yes, let the accusing finger be pointed at the King of Akozo. When King Zakiza heard that his woman had been abducted right in his Kingdom he knew at once that it was the King of Okute who did it but he wasn't going to reply his threatening letter with an insult and so he wrote back to him, assuring him that his subject, Lume would be found. Then the King of Akozo said to his commander of one of the units of the army of Akozo, "We all know who did this"
"Yes my lord" nodded the commander. King Zakiza retook his seat and sighed deeply. "The King of Okute wants to play with me. I have been hurt enough not to keep calm in this life. He will not see what will be coming to him and so instead of looking for my woman I will take war to the King of Okute, strip him off all his powers and force him to provide my woman. He has never held any love for me and had been supportive of the actions of my step mother and what she did many years ago before she escaped from this land. I'm no longer going to fold my hands and watch my enemies play with those I love. Enough is enough, get the rest of the commanders of the army and ready the army. We will travel to the land of Okute in two days time" The commander saluted the King.

Inside the Chambers of Aromo, friend to the mother of Akiza, in the land of Dodo, Akiza could still not grasp the reason behind his dizziness; what he had done with Aromo wasn't his first time but immediately he got down from her bed he staggered and nearly fell. The woman had stood up from the bed half naked and walked up to him where he was holding the wall of her room and in his mind full of thoughts. It was in the middle of the same night Akiza's mother left on a horse. "Come back to bed, let me ease your mind" she spoke softly, holding him by the hand but Akiza withdrew his hand, "What have you done to me?" he asked hoarsely but it seemed the woman wasn't ready to open up to him. He went for her neck and grabbed it with his strong arm. The woman tried to struggle but he pinned her against the wall and brought his face closer to hers, "Even in my weakness I can still knock you off. You tell me right away, what have you done to me?!" He squeezed her neck and the woman couldn't utt

In the Chambers of Aromo, friend of Akiza's mother she rose on her feet where she had knelt, coughing and recovering from the grip on her neck from Akiza. When she had stood upright her eyes turned red with fury. Akiza had never seen her in that state ever since he knew her to be one of his mother's Witch friends and it terrified him. He took few steps backward, made to move out of the room but the door banged shut by itself and he knew at once that he was in danger."You shouldn't have done that". Aromo began, "It should have remained a privilege for you to taste what is in-between the legs of a Witch but you have spoiled our moment. You have tasted the sweetness of my body, now taste the strength of my powers" Few moments later Akiza was seated inside a cage in one of the rooms of the house of Aromo.******In the palace of the King of Dodo he was seated on his throne, knowing fully well that his army had surrendered to the creature of magic; the dragon and Akiza's mother. He was w

Inside the room where Akiza was locked inside an old cage Aromo walked in with one of her security men and asked him to leave them alone. the security man left the room and Aromo walked round the iron cage until she finally stood infront of it. Akiza raised up his weary head and his gloomy face and spoke;"Your mind tells you that my mother is going to abandon me? You make a terrible mistake but you wouldn't know now would you? No you wouldn't, not until your sins are presented before you to see and the consequences of your actions...""Keep your mouth shut" Aromo began "I have nothing against your mother but I'm a religious person and..." Akiza chuckled and the woman paused before she continued, "Very well, since you want to hear it; I'm a Witch like your mother but she hasn't been a generous friend. You know what I'm talking about; she alone gets the good stuffs, she alone secured the favours of the King of Dodo. I am a born daughter of Dodo land but my people don't respect me, they

"Kiss me" She begged. Lume could feel the wind from his nostrils blowing on her temple but King Zakiza wanted her to long for it the more, so he went on, using his tongue to tickle her left ear. She could feel the aroma of his presence, his strong arms and his hairy chest. She wanted him closer and he wanted her to show it. That night was accompanied with a calm breeze and a cold outside. The night moon was glowing and the birds outside, perching on the window frames of the room of the King looked and chipping like they were being entertained by the two lovebirds inside."I want you" Lume held him tighter."I have a meeting to attend to tonight; council meetings" he said, holding his breath."Meeting must wait" she insisted. Just then there was a knock at the door and the person was the Chief Gaurd."Your presence is needed at the throne room my lord" spoke the man. The moment was ruined and Lume fell back on the bed and chuckled disappointedly. The King smiled and put back his robe.

Princess Damina of Dodo Kingdom was now in another land called Abumu where she ran off to during the invasion of the Witch, the mother to a man she had always loved. She hissed as she remained seated near the window of the bar she was inside with a bartender standing before her. She could not possibly call what happened two years back in her father's palace a war, no, that was not a war but a disgrace. She had never seen a dragon until that day and having heard that her father was dead she had imagined many ways Samata must have used the dragon to kill her father, the King of Dodo. The bartender was now impatient and he wanted to leave then she regained herself and asked for a cup of drink. She was offered one and it tasted strange. She sighed again, not sure if where she had been all these while was where she was meant to be. She had been hiding her identity the very day she set her feet in the land of Abumu because she knew that many who hated her father in the land of Abumu would

"Sex?" Princess Damina wasn't pleased with that request from the woman seated before her inside her hut. She got up and walked towards the small pot seated on fire and brought it down. She was preparing some eatable leafs and Aromo wondered if that was all she got. "I mean what I said; I saw handsome and tall young men as I toured the market of this land and I can tell I long to have one of those men slid himself in-between my thighs" Aromo was saying, while demonstrating with her hands. Princess Damina turned to her and angrily spoke to her."You Sisters of Magic in the land where we come from are good at that, one of the evil things you are good at. Now you want to have a man here just recently you arrived and tell me again, what it is your kind are good at doing to men when they have sex with them, trap them, take their will away from them and turn them into your slaves?""You speak as if your mother in-law isn't one of us?" said Aromo and those words got Damina irritated.

In the land of Abumu, Aromo who had left the hut where she had induced Princess Damina to sleep headed straight to the same bar where Damina had been and was nearly molested by one of the bandits that terrorised the town of Abumu. when she had gotten there she took her seat and waited for a bit. She no longer had any money with her and this made her really sad. She had never thought for a second that a day would come when it would appear that Samata would be the reason why she looses everything. That day had come and she had to accept the reality, the reality which implied she was no longer worth a dime and that she would have to start life afresh, meanwhile one thing she was not ready to do was to adapt and identify with her current condition. she was not sure she was ready to become a beggar. She waited for the waiter and suddenly someone hit his hands infront of her and she slowly raised her head up to look at his face. She didn't know the person but that was the same ugly man that

In the land of Akozo, the ruins caused by the dragon were still fresh but already Samata was seated on the throne which stood in the throne room with no roof to cover it. There she sat until she began to hear the footsteps coming towards the hall. Standing by her sides were her most trusted soldiers whereas outside the dragon was flying about. She looked up and saw that the person coming in was her son Akiza. She sighed. It still disturbed her greatly whenever she set her eyes on her son, her slave whose will was no longer his but here. "Mother" he bent with one knee before her and rose only when he heard her ask him to. While he stood before her he said, "I am sorry that I failed to capture his wife and some of the palace officials who sneaked her out of this palace""You do not need to blame yourself son. We were at war and everything happened so fast. You did exactly what I told you to do and you led the army of Dodo well. They will always remember you for this" The mother then st

"The dragon rained fire in every corners of the earth" boasted Samata but Aromo raised her head and spoke, "In Ngiga it didn't rain, fire didn't rain my mistress" Samata then looked at Lume, "And you, you who married my mortal enemy""My husband wasn't your mortal enemy, your mortal enemy is the one kneeling before your side. I mean wasn't because of her your only son died? You stand to accuse me" Lume then stood up. "Are you insane? How dare you?" Samata slapped Lume across the face and she stood up in anger. "Go ahead and kill me, isn't that what you are known for? You only but kill, you kill and your dragon kill, that ancient evil creature that breathed fire on the innocent children of the earth.

Seated on the throne Samata was moved to think again, the very day that Aromo challenged someone in her presence. She didn't know the person was a Prophetess of Dodo and that day they saw hell. Seated on the throne of Akozo she kept thinking so hard about everything and how far she had gone with Aromo. She knew without being told that things weren't the same again between them, with Aromo being responsible for the death of her son Akiza. At this thought once again she stood up and went outside. She was approached by one of the officials who stood before him and asked, "We are being told that things aren't the same again by the other officials who are no longer near us but stays outside the city. They say we do not have an army again and we do not know what else to do. Is it not a thing of pain that most times we neglect the things that matter most.

When it was evening the two arrived in the godscave and the mother of magic looked up to her face, the face of Samata and then spoke to her after sometimes. "You are not just a person from the land of Akozo but you are royalty and the child you carry is royalty too. At this Aromo looked at Samata and wondered what else she hid from her. The mother of magic continued, "You are a Queen from the royal home of Akozo. How true is this?" "You are right mother of magic. I came straight to Dodo from the palace of Akozo" admitted Samata and this touched Aromo who was forced to ask, "What else are you hiding from me Samata?""I never hid the part where I'm the Queen of Akozo or where I was the Queen for I'm no longer a Queen, but you remember you never gave me the opportunity to speak further as you asked me to leave your house immediately. What else would you have me do, force myself to stay and have you throw me out by force?"That night Aromo and Samata went to Aromo's house and while they

Having left the place of Aromo Samata headed towards the next village in the same land of Dodo. She planned to find a way to stay where no one would be able to question her about herself so deep or be able to read her mind and suspect her. On the other hand Aromo headed to the godscave in the land of Dodo. In the godscave was where the mother of magic was staying and there she has disciples whose duties were to carry important messages across to the sisters of magic across the world. When Aromo arrived the godscave she met the mother of magic already seated and expecting her."I knew you were coming. It already reached my ears before you arrived. Is it not a new thing that you came on a day like this? You hardly come at a time like this" The mother of magic was saying."I'm sorry but coming over here to see you all I wanted to do is to ensure that I'm doing the right thing.

"You believe in the earth god and also in your mother but between these two whom do you believe in more?""Of ourselves our mother. She founded the sisterhood and it was only when she found it and initiated us that we began to know what it means to have freedom. We were before those who were broken, with some of us made to suffer in the hands of the officials of the King of Dodo. Even though the King isn't a bad one his governors and commanders of his armies are bad and did unspeakable things to those of us that found solace in the sisterhood. We hadn't joined then and it was when we came together, each of us with her own story of how she suffered in the hands of the governors, commanders and other officials of the palace of the King. We then decided that we had to join our mother whom through we had seen raw display of power.

The next day after she had buried the dead bodies she found herself thinking of what next to do. She stood up once and paced and then in that same morning, very early in the morning she saw a great number of young men and women with clubs and with other weapons troop into the compound because they had been told that the owner of the house had been killed. Samata did not know how they got the information. They went into the house and dragged her out. One of them said it would be a waste of spectator if they killed her in the house instead it would be worth what she committed if they could drag her to the open market where the whole people would witness her death. The rest agreed to this and then they dragged her out of the house and headed with her to the market square where they intended to have her stoned to death.When the people had gotten to the market with Samata and her baby they pushed them to the ground and were getting stoned to stone her death when a voice of someone was hea

Meanwhile where Lume was with Aromo she had begged her not to do what she had decided to do, begged her to please spare her life and not enter the land of Akozo with her but then it wasn't what was expected by Lume because Arome had made up her mind and nothing was going to stop her."Don't tell me not to take you to Akozo Queen..If you are left here or with your daughter and those with her who claim to be doing the right thing what good will you do for her or for anyone.

There was total hatred from Samata to the rest of those in the palace. She began to see everyone in the palace as the problem she had had. First she hated the King and vowed she wasn't going to have anything to do with him again, then she hated his advisers believing it was they who led him astray and then he hated Rimma whom she believed was responsible for the King's coldness towards her. As days passed by, days turned to weeks, weeks to months and after Samata gave birth to Akiza she decided she was going to kill the King by herself and upon killing him she would instill her son Akiza on the throne as crown Prince but she planned to kill him secretively, then kill Zakiza after some months or years and then install her son as crown Prince.The day she planned this she went to the King's room to inspect it before the night came.
