Princess Alesa felt all her problem had been solved at that moment she meet his gaze, his enchanting eyes drew her desire and she wasn't irritated to have to handsome deflowered her, but how. She remembered how she stripped and command him to take her. "Was I truly a witch?" Princess Alesa asked herself. Turning to look at the two maids whom stood she ask them, "Why are you still here?".
Frightened the maids bowed their head, "Queen Mahama sent us to look after you as she had called the Royal physician" One of the maids said.
"Hmph.. As the prince woken up?" Princess Alesa asked with puppy eyes,
"No!" The both maids answered and she frowned.
"Okay I will like to take my bath and change into something else can you help me with any clothes even if it your clothes?" Princess Alesa asked them pleadingly.
"Okay," The two maids replied and one o them left the chamber and went to bring some clothes for Princess Alesa, it was also a maid cloth, Although they knew Prince Ali was the one whom had brought the princess into the palace, but the princess wasn't dressed like a princess either, so they assumed she can wear the maids clothes since they're not yet sure if she was truly a princess, wondering maybe she had fainted due to the recent Witches attack and probably that was why their kind Prince Ali saw her and brought her to the palace.
Returning into the chamber the maid brought the clothes she had selected forward to show the lady whom had claimed to be a princess they are not sure off, if not long that she really looks beautiful, an alluring on at that, the maid has never seen a magnificent beauty as the lady standing in front of her before, she had told the maids downstairs as they were in the second floor, that the woman the prince brought is too beautiful to be an ordinary woman, she could truly be a princess from her beautiful skin.
"Do you like the dress?" The palace maid name Chika asked.
"Yes, I can manage them" Princess Alesa replied while she turned and ask, "Where's the bathroom?"
The two maids stared at themselves with mouth agape, then Chika spoke, "Mr Princess we don't have bathroom here"
"What do you mean by that?" Princess Alesa asked, "Where do you people take your own bathe?" She questioned them folding her arms around her chest.
"My princess we have our own bathroom, but these to doesn't have a bathroom except we take you to the guest room downstairs.
The maids really wanted to take her out to show her to the rest of the palace maids whom were eager to see her.
"Oh, Am I allowed to use another room apart from these, where is the Queen or King I haven't seen anyone of them yet, or is it only Prince Ali that lives in these castle?" Princess Alesa asked , just then she went to the window to stare out, to see some elderly men murmuring as they left the palace.
Princess Alesa has always had the ability to hear whatever anyone was saying even though the person as far from her, So she focused her gaze on the elderly men whom were murmuring what the chief priest had said, she didn't see any chief priest, so she assumed the Royal chief priest might have left the palace before she got to look at the window. She sighed and turned back to look at the two maids.
"So where can I take my bath?" She asked them as she had not had a proper bath since the day she was brought to the palace, she wondered how they clean her up, as she was certain she had not have a proper bath since her last encounter with Prince Ali.
----
King Kande The Second of Kande kingdom was rushed into his secret chamber for treatment, no guards, maid or anyone is allowed into the room, not even Princess Ella or Prince Ali assuming Prince Ali was awake.
The Royal physician and the doctor on board did all they could to save the life of the king but the lost him. King Kande died that afternoon while his son Prince Ali woke up from his deep sleep.
"Am sorry your majesty but we lost his majesty" The doctor spoked while the Royal physician bowed his head, not being able to look at Queen Mahama.
"No these can't be thru!" Queen Mahama rushed into the secret chamber only to see that truly her husband was gone, someone whom was hail and healthy in the morning, has suddenly given up life, "No!!!" Queen Mahama screamed and fainted, Quickly the Royal physician rushed up to her to carry her up..
They supported the Queen and took her out to another room while they begin treatment on her.
Prince Ali heard his mother screamed and wanted to rush out, but he was weak and couldn't even support himself to stand up from the bed, he seem useless at the moment, what was going on?, he wondered, just then he remembered to call his guards.
"Guards!!" Prince Ali yelled with his coarsed voice, as his voice sounded weak, but the guard standing at the door immediately rushed hearing Prince Ali voice, and bowed before the prince.
"Greetings My Prince, You are awake!" The guard said happily as he lowered his head hiding his excitement, as he was Prince Ali shadow and most trusted guard.
"What's going on Brown?' Prince Ali asked as he manage to sit up, his head was still throbbing in pain, so he held it as he sat up properly.
"I heard My mother's voice, what's wrong?" Prince Ali asked as he look up to his Shadow guard, whom was standing straight not wanting to deliver any troubling news to his prince whom had just woke up.
"I don't know about that yet my prince as I could not leave my guarding position but I have asked someone to go check" Brown spoked
"Hmph.." Prince Ali sighed, "Get me a glass of water" he told his guard.
"Okay my Prince!" Brown immediately responded as he hurriedly, fetch a clean drinking water from the drum that was kept in Prince Ali chamber, and serve it to Prince Ali, "Here's it My Prince."
Prince Ali collected the cup of water from his shadow guard and asked him to serve another one, After gulping down three glasses he regain a little strength and he turned to look at his shadow guard.
"For how long have I been asleep?" Prince Ali asked, looking. at his shadow guard for answers.
"Today is the forth day my prince, You have been totally asleep for three day" Brown said, as he kept his gaze lower not looking into Prince Ali face as he spoked.
"Hmph" Prince Ali sighed, "You may leave me alone for now."
"Okay My Prince!" Brown turned and exit Prince Ali's chamber. Just then the guard whom he had sent to go check on Queen Mahama returned, "What happened he asked?"
Just then the Warning bell was beaten and it rang thru out the palace and down to the outside palace, The warning bell rang three time indicating that the current King of Kande is dead.
"No!" Prince Ali screamed as he tried to stand up and go check on his father, but his body failed him. Hearing Prince Ali screamed again Brown panickly rushed in.
"What is it My Prince?" Brown asked as he stood in front of Prince Ali looking concerned
"Tell me it not true, what happened to my father, is the king dead?" Prince Ali asked cursing as to why his body failed to cooperate with him and stand up.
"Am sorry my prince, but am not allowed to tell you anything until you have fully recovered" Brown lowered is head as he spoked.
"What nonsense are you saying Brown, who gave you such stupid orders, Tell me the truth right now, what going on?!" Prince Ali yelled, "I command you to tell me the truth?" Prince Ali demanded but Brown shook his head.
Queen Mahama had warn Brown before leaving Prince Ali chamber that he should not tell Prince Ali anything when his awake, to avoid him passing out from shock, that was when King Kande, was immediately rushed in to his Private ward for treatment, no one is allowed to tell both Princess Ella and Prince Ali anything until the Queen decides and now the Queen has also fainted, Brown shook his head hesitating to speak.
Prince Ali cursed and ask Brown to get out, "Get out!" Prince Ali screamed Then he break down in sobs, His father was no more, what's happening, why has the witches from Jalin decided to attack his kingdom and kill his father. First it was him been in deep sleep for three days only that he was breathing fine, and now they had took his father away, "What's happening!" Prince Ali thundered as tears began to flow out from his eyes
