"Get the fuck off me."
Tzu said, meaning to hurl Jim away from him if twas possible.
Jim fought himself free. He started pressing his hands to his robe as though he had lost something.
Few of the market fellows took interest in them in the first place, but seemed to had lost it.
"Do they have a thing for strangers too?"
Tzu asked Jim. Jim wore him out with the how-would-you-expect-me-to-know kinda ogle.
"Aiiieee"
They heard from behind them. A man was pushing a wooden barrow behind them trying to pass through. They hopped off the road.
Jim to the right, Tzu to the left.
They had been standing in the middle of the road. They could see the huge gate of the city several metres away from them.

Still Havila. "Get the fuck off me." Jim struggled in vain as some guards from nowhere grabbed to restrain him. He was quite strong enough and was able to yank himself off the two. He had no idea where the strength came from. But then he heard Tzu calling, "Is that what you want? Is this how you want to get the revenge?" Jim slowed down and stood before Lailah. He was fueling but what Tzu had said seemed to have the best of him. Tzu hurried to where Jim was and whispered into his ear, "Amongst what you heard deep in your consciousness, was there such thing as ambush?" Jim shook his head free and eyed Tzu with detest. He hated Tzu. Tzu was always the coward in the name of observing some godforsaken rules and probably ethics. Ethics for such crazy lady.<
Lailah: The Milestone The Emperor of Rome knows about Lailah?
"Who are you three?" The Roman Emperor's voice was husky, refined and polished. His accent wasn't all well spoken of, but at least, even the deaf could make a meaning of it. Jim looked at his two brothers who were by his right and left. The three of them were kneeling before the throne. Jim thought that one of them should speak to the Emperor. Even though he knew not what to say. "I'm sure you do not want that repeated?" The Emperor's voice came again. Ja cleared his throat of the lumps of confusion. He was going to speak when Jim snatched the medium, "Nymph hunters." He said. Ja looked at him. More of a are-you-insane kinda of gaze. Tzu had his eyes all glued to the Emperor on the throne. Behind the three of them were numerous chiefs who had come
Lailah: The Milestone Poseidon?
"Is it Lailah?" Ja called at Loe who was quite faster than the three of them. Loe had caught up with the warriors as soon as they all alighted from the chariot. There were few other warriors already circling the lady who was threatening to hurl the Helmet of Jin inside the water. She was quite close to the lapping waves. Majority of the warriors had their legs dipped into the waves without looking behind. Even if the crazy lady hurl the helmet, some of them would make sure to catch. Ja and his siblings, alongside the other fellows got to Loe who was staring blankly at the lady. Ja looked at Loe's face before looking away to the lady. Twas the look of surprise on his face. He looked towards the lady, twasnt Lailah. That was a relief, but twas that lady Loe had been betrothed to in Ikpala. Twas
Lailah: The Milestone Poseidon and the three Warriors
Somewhere in the depth of the ocean. "Hui hak hajan a" That was the gibberish one of the three guys heard. He wasn't sure if the two others rolling alongside him in the hollow meant to say something. They had been like that since goodness knew when. They had been rolling and screaming down the hollow. The torrent of the depth of the ocean was tuning and twas becoming suicidal. The warrior who thought he had heard a thing tried to hold unto the person next to him, but he couldn't. He missed the catch. It seemed as though his hand came out at the other side in the fellow's body. Then suddenly, the turmoil began to subside. The tumbling and rolloing hollow which seemed to had been crashing against huge rocks knew sanity. There was peace and quiet. But the h
Lailah: The Milestone The Raven
"We've searched all through the waters as much as we could, yet nothing to show for." The leader of the warriors who was bowing before the Emperor said. His face was down, but you could tell that he was very sensitive to any call about to be made by the ruler. "To what depth of the waters did you delve?" The Emperor asked. The fellow hesitated for a while then said, "I can't be sure. We didn't have a means of measuring it, but we did all we could." He kept emphasizing that point. He knew quite well that the Emperor was never satisfied. He always would find an excuse to owe their incompetence to. Well, they weren't incompetent, twas simply that, the Emperor was never satisfied. "Did you go over to the other side of the sea? That which we came through?" The Emperor's voice was becoming stiffen
Lailah: The Milestone Poseidon recruits the three Warriors against Ja Lai
In the depth of the ocean. "When the mortals and the immortal meet, to what do we owe that." A very husky but quite rich voice came from ahead of them. The warriors couldn't figure out whose voice twas. Who was to blame that they were caught in such claws? Of course Aojen. Three ladies remove the sacks covering the heads of the three warriors. They looked up at the ladies. They were extraordinarily beautiful. They hadn't seen any sort of ladies ever. "Who are you and where are we?" Aojen shot at the lady standing beside him. The lady didn't say a word. He looked up at her. She was barely naked. What she had on was a strap of linen reaching across the two shoulders down the path of the boobs. The linen cupped the boobs, but left every other parts open. Of course the waist down to the rise of the t
Lailah: The Milestone The Wierd man
"What's this place?" Ja Lia muttered. Twas more of a statement than a question. He had been there before, some whiles ago. Okay! Probably some weeks or probably month back. That was where he had met Loe in the first place. That same place had the Raven led him too. Since he didn't have the guts to return empty handed to the Emperor, thus had the persistence been supplanted. He either got the bird or remained a wanderer. Though the fear of being killed immediately by the strange Emperor who surely had no regards for life, prevented him from manning up to go and tell the Emperor that he couldn't catch the bird. "Okay, now! Raven, enough of the hide and seek. Come out already. I do not have the strength for this drama." He said, standing few metres away from the door of the hut. The hut was in no good shape. But that wasn't really the point. The point was
Lailah: The Milestone Misplaced Priority
The Palace. Kingdom of Havila. "Who's he?" The Monarch said standing up as the tattered man walked briskly towards the throne to lay his hands on Ja Lia who was being resrained by guards. Ja had wanted to run to the throne and hug the Emperor for safety. "Hold him back." The husky voice of the Emperor. A stern order. At that, two attendants ran towards the man to hold him back, but he was much more stronger than they were. He flung them away and kept on walking towards the throne. The more guards who went to restrain him, the easier he threw them off. What he kept muttering was the, "Where is Lailah?" Ja had no faintest idea where the bird was at that moment. One thing he was sure of was the fact that the bird didn't enter the palac

2 Weeks Later.
2 Weeks later. By the Sea. "What's the beauty of being a king if the queen is nowhere to be found?" Ja shot without looking at her. His face was glued to the hankering horizon and the lapping waves up ahead of him. He could hear the whimpering of the coral reefs and the wandering winds. Probably he was hallucinating. "I won't be gone forever, Ja. I couldn't possibly forget about you. I just have some scores to settle with Poseidon and I'll be back into the warmth of your trained arms. I tell you, it'll only be like a night sleep before I'll be back." Her arms were tucked into each other, folded over her ample bosom. She was also looking towards the sea, probably counting the strokes of the waves. "How about if you failed and that dickhead gains his control on you? What if he subjects you again and then locks

Eat me up!
Inside a tree. "Oh well, there. Look who we have here. The king of Havila spending his last day in the tree." She said and closed in the space between the two of them. She was all over him at that moment. Then at once, she hugged him tightly. Like a bone crushing hug. Such hug he'd never received in his entire life. The consequence of such hug was the fact that, those two bounty boobs were pressed tightly on his chest and her nipples were about to slit his chest. He tried to put one of his legs on the bed like the lady so he could assume the right position. He did. He held her tighter than she held him. He was dragging her closer. He wanted his cock to fight its way into her pussy. But he couldn't achieve that. She felt warm under his touch. Her scent was glorious and the urge

Ja is crowned, then a Revelation
The palace. Havila. "I know that several of you are bitter and sad because this stranger had been crowned as your king." Lailah started, pointing at Ja Lia as a reference to the word 'stranger' she had mentioned. Ja didn't bat an eye. He knew he could trust her on such stance. He just stood beside her. His eyes occasionally leaving the converged citizens for Lailah. "But there are few things you do not know that I'm very willing to let you know before I leave your midst for as long as possible." She continued, avoiding Ja Lia's gaze. Ja had shot an ogle at her because of the last phrase she had referenced. She hadn't told him that she would be leaving Havila, though he remembered her making some allusions several days back. Plus twould be quite illogical of her to leave Havila after he had just been recently crow

Ja Lia's Coronation: Questioning
In the Palace. Havila. "We'll be asking you three questions." One of the chiefs threw at Ja. The chief's expression was betraying and by extension demeaning. Probably his own way of threatening Ja to give up before the time. Ja looked at Lailah who was seated by him. In only her face did he find his comfort. Several other faces betrayed his guts. His will to survive was always shallow whenever he gave them such stare. Or vice versa. Lailah nodded at him and he looked back at the chief and nodded. Not that he couldn't make decisions of his own but... whatever. What was the point of explanation? "Shall we get started?" Another of the chiefs asked him. That was the same question he was asked yesterday before everything went rogue and some of the conspirators broke into the square to ruin him. He didn't want to bring back th

Ja Lia's Coronation: Day 1
The coronation. Havila. "I'm not ready for this." Ja whispered into Lailah's ear. He wished he could whisper into her mind and heart and every other parts of her body that would make her take him seriously. She's just too playful and daring. Those should be cute and sweet qualities, but not at that moment. Not on a day, which was called his coronation day. "Are you really sure about this?" She asked to his dismay. He looked at her. He wanted to dismiss the urge to listen to her but he was moved instead. Was she really being considerate? Unusual as it seemed. He stuttered, "Yes. I'm not ready for it. Not today, maybe some other day. I appreciate your effort but I don't have the resources from their tests. Even though I'm yet to know what they are." She smiled and replied, peace splattered on

The sudden peace
Inside a tree. Havila. "What were you thinking?" Ja Lia was eating her up with an odd ogle. He wished he could do more than that. If twere possible to scold someone with looks, he would had done exactly that. But she only sat on the bed smiling, probably making a joke of him. He wasn't vexed. He was acquainted with her nuances. "You could had gotten the both of us killed. I'm sure you knew that." He shot. He saw seated on the chair opposite the bed. The room was illuminated with blue rays that day. He sure didn't know how she came up with the tricks. "It's a slap in my face that you still fear whenever you're around me." Her countenance had fallen. Well, you might think she was sad or something close to that, but in no time she could burst out laughing again. Such was her art.

Public announcement
Before the palace. Havila. "Citizens of Havila." Lailah said for the hundredth time, trying to fight her way around words. Yet the vociferation of the lots kept outweighing her voice, swelling in size and number. All she kept hearing was, "Fuck off bitch!" "We deserve justice!" "Lailah must die!" "All the strangers must go." Lailah at a point was forced to resort to her dark magic but she didn't want to. She wanted everyone to have a shot. A chance of lending his or her voice. The days of anarchy and coercion were gone. But the only thing which could steer the beast in her was if anyone lay their hands on Ja. She might set the fellow on fire. "Die, Lailah, Die!" One of the men hurled stone at h

The proposal
The Palace. Havila. "This is just ridiculous." Jim gave up on trying to get to Lailah. He didn't know why Ja was so protective of her. The bitch who had caused all of them such great harm. He wished he could just hold her in his hand, that her blood may be dried. "Let her be." Tzu called at him, but he shot him an odd ogle. He couldn't hold back the cuss, "Have you ever had a choice? You're just being turned about and tossed around as though you don't have brains. Or probably they don't work." Tzu stood up at that. He wouldn't take such insult from his insolent younger brother. "Now let's trade fist. You think you're now a man and can say whatever you want?" Tzu was walking closer to Jim with such long face assorted with determination. &nbs

Welcome Lailah, thou Havila!
Before a tree. Havila. "How soothing it is to feel the caresses of the cruel nature again." Ja praised, his face washed by the bellowing breeze sent by the wandering winds. He had his left hand in Lailah's right. Both of them were standing before that tree. "You never left the comfort of nature. You only travelled through channels." She corrected, squeezing his palm gently. She looked at him and he brought his face close. He kissed her. Quite the brief one. "Comes the time to know of few of my arts when I was gone from the tree. Your cherished question." She said. He felt excited at that. But soon, concern splattered across his face. He didn't leave her wondering, "What of the people of Havila? They sure know the both of us and wouldn't be pleased seeing us together." She smiled
