Gideon Palace
Presently, lady Nersha a ruthless, arrogant, selfish queen of the kingdom of Gideon thrown the door wide open. Started with her feet inside, with a loud snapping bark. '' you better tell me where is your brother'' lady Nersha was impatient to receive a better reply than what she received
Unpleasantly surprised '' l don't know''
'' you better have a good explanation to ….''
Prince Micheal broke in '' if l may remember correctly, it's you mother who should have a better explanation of his where about''
'' what?'' verily, lady Nersha wasn't expecting that reply.
Michael was laughing inside. A wise men said you should be careful of what you say especially when you are angry.
The Queen had a big fight Simon with the first prince and Queen Angelina. His son ignores whatever she says but always listen to the crazy queen Angelina. In that fight she threatened to kills Simon and that ended the relationship of mother and son.
'' yes mother, aren't you not the one who threatened his life or l must say…..'' Michael was interrupted
'' excuse me, my lady the king wants to see you'' a female maid in white long dress and a gold belt just below her burst. Broke in before Michael and the queen, say whatever was on her dumb mind. Queen Nersha jump out of the room without another word.
EZRA
Hazel was still in her battle suit. Tamar sealed her mouth looking at Hazel with a regretful eyes, wide open. Hazel didn't have time to change what she was wearing, cause of late practise. Even though her father forbid her from presenting herself in improper clothes. She dare to do it.
As Hazel enters the dining hall. Tamar rolled up a chair next to his brother Ephraim. Hazel sit down still on a silent mode.
'' Lucy is that a ...….'' The king was stopped by the Queen
With fake smile as usual '' we are hosting a party for the royalties this week on Saturday. As tradition of the kingdoms for peace and harmony there is going to be many marriage proposal and I hope you say yes."
"I hope everyone got their cards to invite one or two friend'' with a golden cup of wine in her hand.'' But am sorry Lucy, there was a shortage of invitations cards, so, l thought you might not need it since your friend is no longer allowed to enter into the palace'' another fake smile '' isn't it Lucia''
"It's Hazel" she murmurs those words hoping his father did not hear her say that.
"Lucia, that's your name" Queen Dorah put on a fake smile as she looks into Hazel's eyes.
With a smirk Hazel '' yeah sure'' Hazel was boiling inside. That name Lucia. That name she hated the most. She didn't care about the invitation card but only that name.
While the Balams had a good time feasting a new mystery come into the palace. Yeah everyone was not going to be the same as before. Like l said a new mystery, it was.
The first prince,Ephraim added another steak in Hazel plate, and His actions always betrayed him. His other sister Victoria who was sitting opposite him, was dying of jealousy.
'' how was your training?'' Ephraim asked looking at Hazel
'' umm same as usual brother'' Lucia replied with a smile.
'' you can join Victoria, since she is better than you'' Lady Dorah added concentrating on her meal. If she is better why hide her inside a pit to train, or its not training only.
'' that won't be necessary, starting tomorrow she will be training with someone than Mr Shan''
'' sounds great, just curious about the party, is it a matching party, since majority invited are royalties and young's? '' Ephraim asked widening a faint smile
'' seems like it, are you afraid, atleast you will find someone smart not these dirty maids. Like what mother said many marriage proposal. am done here see you in the morning''
Victoria left the table with those words. Deep down she was happy, but the pressure was too much she has a deal that only herself and Queen Dorah knows
Hazel and Ephraim finished eating and leave the table. Hazel took an apple from a basket at the entrance of the dining hall.
'' can you just take a plate'' Ephraim
''but l...'' Hazel
''or you can ask Tamar to come with a plate of fruits. By the way you are not using her like that girl'' Ephraim hung his head aside with a lost look.
'' what was the name of that girl by the way' Ephraim asked
'ummm l don't know '' Hazel replied heading towards her room.
'' ooh come on sister''
'' seems like you forget your crush name bro'' with smirk on her face
'' what?'' Ephraim was not expecting that
'' my bad, my lord you still love her'' she continue to tease him
'' hmm?'' widening his eyes with shook.
'' good night my Prince "with that Hazel rushed to her chamber leaving her brother puzzled. Ephraim didn't realize that Hazel was able to notice the love seen in his eyes.
As Tamar opened the door for Hazel, Victoria was also getting inside her room which was next. Instead of taking a day off without picking a fight.
'' goodnight Lucia, l hope on Saturday you can put a good fight to win a big shark, right sis. And l think you don't even have to tell them about your old boyfriend story they already know'' with a smirk she added
'' a crazy, young princess from Ezra, commit suicide over an ordinary boy , what a shame little sis'Victoria chuckles
To avoid trouble Hazel and end up being punished she ignored Victoria.
After many attempts of suicide the king appoint a secret therapist, the witch doctor who refused to give her name to anyone. All, this was for her daughter Hazel, for her best interest to get better.
And that increase confusion. Sometimes her father the king is a good person tomorrow he is a wolf . So Hazel keeps puzzling his father. Not sure if he is good or bad .
Her therapist name was unknown and it remained that way. The lady was known by the king, Hazel and Kadesh, king's right hand.
''evening my lady'' Kadesh
'' evening'' Hazel was about to get inside'' can l have the order today''
'' of course my lady'' with that Kadesh bow with respect and left.
