~Kie Azholophased~
"Hey Handsome."
Shamaica teased him from the hanging cage next to his.
The both of them had been brought to the palace straight and King Wealene had had the best of Kie... having him flogged severally by the captain of his guards, Jaith.
And twas evening already, the time for judgement to be passed on the both of them. And all the people were gathered in the square, the gaurds stationed, the princess at the upper porch staring at Kie who was held up in a drooping cage.
Everyone was awaiting the arrival of King Wealene, who would pass the judgement.
The wooden cage in which the two of them were locked had iron doors. Kie's hands were tied as well as his legs. He could hardly move in peace in the tiny cage, tossed by the crashing wind, let alone break himself free.
And of all the pains and rage he was plying through, Shamaica had just gone out of the mark and line to tease him. The hell!
"You want to die, huh?"
He barked at her but she made a joke of it. Sniggering.
"You know too well, mortal that if I dim fit to leave here now, I would."
He pushed a frustrated sigh, looking away from her cage which was directly swinging slightly opposite his. He was somehow looking for his mother but all he saw were deranged group of folks who had been blinded by the undying thirst of blood as fashioned by their obnoxious ruler.
Many of the people, especially men, loathed King Wealene greatly but none of them had been able to make a move against him. And that was why Kie had isolated himself from all the cowards.
Even though he knew of some group of rebels who had raised a mob against the king. And on the day they had planned to attack the palace, they had all gotten to the Palace gate chanting and raving. But it'd turned out that the leader of the rebel was an infiltrator, King Wealene's spy amongst the group. A spy sent out to shun all tongues risen against the [Magnanimous Era] of his, according to his acclaimed facts. They were all burnt.
The thought of it was sickening. He tossed the thought aside. He remembered how he had called few men after the first tragic incident to form another group which would have no leader. But all of them feared.
He got weary of the thoughts.
"Why did you do that for? Why did you let us be caught by those--"
He held up the remaining words as he looked closely at the empty cage swinging rapidly before him.
"Where did she go just now?"
He quizzed, trying to stand up, but the cage wasn't so big. It allowed only one thing at a time.
He searched in vain and couldn't find her. And then suddenly, the chatters and noise of the populace died out as the king stepped out to the elevated porch; an elongated portion of the top palace floor.
"That dog."
He cussed. Since he couldn't stand, he knelt as he looked in the direction of the crazy King; the cage was like a dog's, with tiny intervals between the row of logs held together with nail.
King Wealene was dressed in his usual, Chinese King's robe. A sick ass who tossed aside his own culture and embraced all Cultures; a puppet of shame.
He'd said, he dressed like a Chinese Emperor, rule like a Roman Emperor, and act like an Egyptian Pharaoh.
"Greetings to you, lovable citizens of Agranah. What quirky and impromptu occasion brings us here!"
He started as a deafening silence paced the space,
"We've once gathered here because of this unbridled tongue and inconsequential youth who has no regards, neither for the gods for their king. Like me!"
No one dared make an exceptive reaction. He continued,
"Since we had once gathered here to have him beheaded, and he did escape by some act of sorcery. But now that we have him again, with that same sorcerer I believe. His punishment no longer carry the same weight. He shall no longer be beheaded. He shall be burnt at that stake."
He pointed at the stake in front of the square, behind Kie.
"Himself and the sorcerer!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he signalled Jaith who hurried with few of his men to Kie's cage and the other cage.
They grabbed Kie as soon as he was let out but they were stunned at Shamaica's empty cage.
"His Greatness, the sorceress is gone!!!"
Jaith called with a loud voice at the King. The crowd gasped but the king cackled.
"Be at ease, lovable citizens of Agranah. This is some other trick of the sorceress."
As the noise waned out, he continued,
"At first I was surprised when I heard that she was caught. Knowing what she was capable of. But now, her intent had been made known."
He paused and continued,
"She wants to cause a distraction for you all. And by that, her little pet shall be spared again. How diplomatic you would say."
He stepped forward, as though he was going to jump off the rails bordering the elevated porch.
"But shall we give to her what she wants?!"
"Never! Burn him!"
A man from the midst of the people called. And at that, others started chanting,
"Burn him!"
And at that, Kie was led towards the stake.
But suddenly, fire came out of nowhere and the stake where Kie was headed to was set ablaze. And in the twitch of an eye, a young Sorcerer, the same the Princess had visited, showed up tied to the stake, burning.
The Princess gasped at the sight and the people moved back. Even the king and his guards were moved.
The burning sorcerer started screaming on top of his voice, wailing and fighting to get off the position as though he'd been tied there.
But as the king considered closely, he discovered that neither the cloth, hair, nor skin of the sorcerer was stung by the flames. He was stirred at that to words,
"Sorcery. Lovable citizens, this is sorcery."
The people began to close in the pace, being themselves, as the king continued,
"What's this charade, Sorcerer? Who are you and what brings you here?"
"Wealene!"
The sorcerer started, in a rather thick and thunderous tone. Such voice which calls his age, stature and proportion into question.
"This shall not be me but you on the stake... your wail increasing and pain growing continuously. Set ablaze on the stake of the gods if you stand in the way of the lovers the gods have chosen for the land. The princess and the condemned."
The young sorcerer paused and threw his gaze at Kie who was wielding a recent ogle,
"Be warned, Wealene. For a sign lies at hand."
The sorcerer disappeared at that. The princess smiled at the view, her bedazzled father was an enough spectacle.
And while they were all still wrapped in the recent deliberation and mood, an unknown mob from the crowd, who had been pretending to be onlookers, advanced towards the guards and attacked them.
A great fight swelled in the square, and Kie found an excuse to escape.
"Catch him, catch him."
Wealene called, but no one was listening. Every guard fighting for his own life.

He knew the guards were still on him and could catch up with him anytime and any moment."The dungeon."He thought he heard someone say that to him. But it didn't matter. He hurried in the direction of the dungeon. He knew the path by heart even though it was once he had visited it."Mother?"He called as soon as he got to mouth of the pit, staring through the bars of rage beaten by wants, into the cold slightly gloomy pit."Are you there, mother? If you're there let me know please."He went on his knees, throwing his face into the bars to look into the far end of the pit. Then suddenly, he heard a movement in the pit. And soon, the silhouette first, then the frame of his mother came to view."What have they done to you mother. I will have the head of that foolish Wealene.

They were taking the early morning stroll as usual, and the path to which they were headed led to the final hut at the outskirt of the village, Kie's Hut."What say do we have over the wills of the gods?"Malisa came on, taking a quick glance at her. Then looked to the front,"My father, the king, could seem harsh and tough and ruthless. Which all best suit him. But he does have regards for the gods. And he wouldn't go out of his way to insult or ridicule their words."Samantha was quiet for a while, but responded eventually,"But what would you do with the hostler.

She was in the hut, but looking through the window at Kie, who was at the back of the hut trimming the hoofs of Talia, his horse.He allowed the distraction and looked up from the last hoof to his mother's face, poking out independently out of the window as though it had no neck supporting it."Depends on your definition of sense mother."He looked back at the hoof too quickly, hitting the handle of the narrow blade which looked like a modern chisel. Only that twas rustier and hardly plain. But it did cut through the hoof, sliding off the hard keratin.After that push, he took a pause and said to his mother again,"If getting married to that wench is what you call sense, I'd rather be senseless."His mother scoffed,"You call the princess of the land a wench?

Kie miraculously went on his knees and bowed with his forehead brushing the floor before Wealene. Twas pretty much hard to tell what that was for. Respect or -- whatever."What is this?"Wealene queried as Kie stood up tall before him."Didn't you say she's not worth your while? That you'd rather get married to a -- Jaith what did the lad say the previous day?"Jaith, who had hurried there, standing behind Kie for any quick ambush if necessary, mumbled incoherently. King Wealene dismissed his poor memory as Kie came on,"I guess I was wrong about her and spoke out of rage. The rage of the clashes we've had before now."Wealene chuckled softly, taking few steps closer to him as the rest of the royalties watched in surprise."Pardon my interruption

Kie was leaning back on a royal table which was placed in the middle of the princess' chamber. He kept a straight face when he said,"Am I a stain to the royal house? Oops. I forgot, I'm an Ostler who shouldn't be present when other kings are."Malisa shook her head softly, her face wielding an emotional gaze. She swept a sheet of courage and took two steps towards him, standing quite not far from him.She argued, yet delicately,"Of course not. That's not what I mean."She puffed and strayed to an end of the room by the East where there was a big drawer with mirror and traditional makeup kits lined on its deck.She turned to him, her backside pressed against the edge of the deck."I know my father too well. He loves taking an advantage of situations. Especially such situations as this. And you k

His lips were wet, eyes alive as he looked up at his daughter with a gentle smile,"I have seen father speak to their unborn babies through the stomach. But never seen any try it through the pussy. Have you imagined giving pleasure to the mother while talking to the son?"He paused and suddenly tucked in the weird smile eating up his old face, shooting up the grim counterpart. He strayed, softening his tone,"Isn't it good daughter -- how does it feel, the thought of expecting a younger brother?"Malisa shook her head in rage,"I always thought you were smart father, but it's just embarrassing that you could be fooled by a desperate woman who would even lie with a pig to keep her pl

The Arena. "Now that the King has been crowned and the Queens have been celebrated, it's now time to have the games. But first, we'd be starting with blood and gores... let all the women take caution now. If you cannot contain the emotions, you won't be held against your will to remain seated. But if surely you have nothing to fear, I shall then call in the gladiator!!!"Hannibal took a pause, looking away from the crowd who occupied the arena to every corner of its length. He looked at his back, at Kie who was elegantly dressed as a king, the gold crown sitting majestically upon his head. Beside him to the right was Malisa and to the left was Sam. The parents were behind them; that particular elevated spot of the arena had been consecrated for the royalty and family. Kie nodded him to continue and he did.

Through the woods of Agranah. "What if Malisa figures out that the both of us disappear a day before the coronation? Don't you think she'll have a lot of reasons to be jumpy?"Kie took a glance at Samantha whose horse was going gently beside his. She smiled at him,"Are you saying that she would think that we absconded again?"He nodded looking away,"Definitely. It's quite the thing to think about. And to think of it, we found our way back to each other after that sex. Now I know what I want and who I truly love.""And who's that?"She teased, intentionally avoiding his gaze. He chuckled and made his horse stop. He climbed off it and walked to hers which had stopped too. He got to her and turned her on the horse. He turned her to face himself then buried his face in her stomach. "Of course you, Samantha. You are the one I love genuinely."He looked up at her, his face soft and reflectiv

On a boat. A lagoon. "So I convinced her. She surely believed me."Shamaica said to Amani who was standing very close to the edge of the boat on the other end. Naturally, the boat should tilt and fall over but 'twas mysteriously stable on the water. You could call that magic. "Why do you make it sound like you have done something evil. All you did was tell the witch the truth. If I was a third party, I would think that you have an ulterior motive."Amani turned to her and the boat shook. Shamaica was seated at the extreme end, on a plank connected to both ends of the boat; six other planks like that made rows of seven seats. "Sorry, master. That wasn't the intention."Shamaica apologized. Amani huffed, then started walking back to her, jumping from one seat to the other till she got to the middle. "Why do you call master? It's reasonable to think that you chose to become my disciple in order to cultivate your p

Threesome
Night. The King's chamber. Agranah. "I don't think this is the right thing to do."Kie was reluctant to walk to the bed. His back was pressed to the door. His eyes traveling across the room. The room was lit in red candles, the floor clothed in beautiful flowers. Kie needed no soothsayer to tell him those were the efforts of Malisa. And Malisa was already in bed, half-naked, her white night gown was transparent and revealed every sensitive part of her body; especially her hard and standing nipples. "What do you think, Sam?"Kie decided to look away from Mal. That was the only way to counter the arousal he was having. Sam on the other hand was still wearing her gown. Though her cleavages were revealed, but her dresses were at the peak of modesty. "I don't know. I'm not sure I can stand it."She walked away from the bed, beside which she had been standing, heading towards the door. Malisa slid

"But for a fact, one must agree that Wealene is quite the genius. How could he had thought of creating such deadly shortcuts and traps. He must have a lot of things going on in that thick head of his.""I bet you can't say that it to his face."A feminine voice came from behind him. He was familiar with the voice, and therefore found no reason to turn to her. "After all, he's the father of a woman you love."She added, advancing towards him. "Go away, I don't want to talk to you."She halted few steps away from him. He kept on walking towards the pit. She followed. As soon as he got to the pit, he stopped then looked into it. 'Twas

Within the Palace walls. The dining hall. "Now let's talk about the king's coronation feast."Elonaise proposed over breakfast. Everyone of them was gathered at the table. Only Hannibal was missing: he hadn't arrived from the island yet. "Can't it wait until we finish dining?"Wealene had made an exception. He seemed to be in a better state now. For all that there was, he was seated and had his usual expression stalking his face. "There's no kid here. Why should we do that? Or do you fear to choke on the meat?"Elonaise trolled. Wealene glared at him for a while. Mara looked from one end to the other. Kie was seated between his wives. Mara between the two men, each set opposite each other over the table. "Kie, when do you want the feast to be?"Kie who had been enjoying his meal, paused for a while, then looked up at his mother. He could feel the eyes of the rest heating up his face.

Through the neighborhood of Agranah. "Where are you taking me to?"Kie was impatient now, and he wouldn't move anymore. He had been keeping his calm all this while but now that they were past the arena and were walking through the plain towards the East, he'd decided to stop his horse. Samantha who was leading ahead of him didn't stop. She wasn't going to give in to his threat. She was now a different person. Ever since Kie placed her as a second choice. Twas quite a wonder that he decided to come with her after she told him that there was someone who wanted to speak with him. "You think I'm joking? I'm turning around now!"He pushed the threat further and then she stopped. She turned on her horse and called at him,"Don't be a sucker and catch up. We are almost there.

He was on an unnamed spot between the woods behind and plains ahead.He resumed walking, his clothes dusty and dirty. His hair unkempt, face rough, lips cracked, shoes worn from the tiring journey. His heart was faint, but dropping dead or refusing to walk would do him nothing close to good. "Why are there no wandering warriors on patrol?"He remonstrated, advancing towards the plains. A realization dawned on him,"Even if many died in the war, but I left few back at home. Aren't they supposed to be worried about me?"He was now walking through the plains. "And there is no horse. What fate is this. Why do I fall into wrong hands over and over again."The view up ahead of him was blurry because of the hotness of the sun. He could hardly take a long s

He took a long gulp of it, not allowing the bitter taste to ruin his motivation. "Like shit. But it's a relief that I won't die. Let that choad just wait till I recover, he would wish he didn't know me."He tried to lie back down, after handing the cup back to his daughter. She looked inside the cup,"There's still some portion left. It'll work together.""Malisa?"Wealene called, after getting comfortable. "Yes father?"His face housed a thin smile,"How about you be a good daughter and take the remaining portion for me."She rolled her eyes at him,"Why would I ? Was I the one who was bitten by the dick of a God?"She tried to laugh stealthily but he caught her. "So, now you're against your only father?"
