Ramses,
The king looked at the naked sleeping figure beside him. He kissed her shaved head before walking to his balcony that overlooked the Nile and the city of Thebes.
He couldn't sleep last night as he thought about Akila and what had happened to her hair.
And when he was certain that his lover was asleep, he sent a servant to fetish Omari to seek the truth.
But it was more confusing to him when he didn't get any answers. His advisor came back empty-handed.
So he spent the night thinking about it and why did Akila lie? Ramses was certain that there was something else.
Not just that pitiful excuse she gave him. And he knew that his sister had a hand in it.
But he will respect Akila's unspoken wishes and won't interfere in the matter. It is the time for her to build her own path.
The palace's life is vicious and he can't be around her all the time to guard or protect her fragile mind and body.
