Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Burning the corpses

"Niaaaa…." Ona trembles in her hysterical

cry when she encounters Nia after being pushed by Kalus into the living room.

Her legs held no strength from how she was

roughly fucked against the floor.

Nia had a grimacing look with a pinch of

pissed and was ready to kill Kalus and Gideon. She caught Ona's body before she

fell on the floor.

Ona quickly shifted her head when she heard

a few sobs from female voices approaching. Her jaws dropped when she saw blood

stains on two of the three servants walking afront Gideon who had a long wooden

stick.

Her eyes painted with hurt and sorrow and

tears running out of her eyes and darted them to Nia's face. Nia shook her head

and caressed her cheeks.

One could see hurt looming in Nia's eyes

and body but her face exuded grimace in a way that Ona never saw that before.

"I didn't bring all of you here to

re-unite, no," Kalus said as he walked forward. "Follow me, you five have more

work to do."

"Go…" Gideon shouted from Ona and Nia's

behind, shouting to the three servants.

Nia held Ona by her arm, because her legs

were waggling and the thought of Kalus taking advantage of Ona it was erupting

something dangerous in her, and the fact that she was the one who persuaded Ona

to give Kalus a chance was making her beat herself up.

"Leave her arm," Kalus ordered after he

came to a halt by the main door, turned, and with that wry smile, he opened the

door. "Now, burn your people." He stretched his lips even more.

Ona's heart dropped. She wasn't ready to

see her dead parents again, her people and the children and now she has to burn

them. How evil Kalus is?

Nia held her tears for far too long, hoping

that her husband managed to escape somehow and seek help, but…. Her tears ran

out as fast to the floor when her eyes caught Kael by the floor, arms stretched

wide while facing up with a dry black stain on the corner of his lip to his

ear.

Kalus stepped forward to Ona, grasped her

hand, and yanked her out of the door.

Ona fell and rolled with cries and tried so

hard not to stare at her parents. But she knew that she had to. She's the only

one who has to burn her parents.

"Now, drag all these dead bodies to the

fire pit, there, and drop them," Kalus pointed at the fire pit's that was on

the left direction. "All of them and all the shitty decoration. In few hours, I

want to see this Kingdom sparkling clean."

The princess crawled, to her parents with

her eyes burning from how she had been crying for hours.

"Princess, there's a roller carrier where

we can put a few inside and roll it to the pit," one of the servants said.

"Where is it?" Nia quickly asked whilst

beside her dead husband.

"Near the cottage," the servant answered.

Nia got up quickly but she was stopped by,

"Where do you think you're going? Are you trying to run away?" Gideon asked

with his silly walks to Nia.

"To fetch a roll carrier by the cottage

house. It will make things quicker," Nia had her head bowed down while

speaking, well she received a chortle instead of a permission.

Gideon walked closer, and with his stick,

he whipped Nia's left leg and said, "You pull and drag with hands Princess

servant."

Nia's nostrils flared, her heart beating so

fast and her hands itching so bad. Her husband taught her how to fight as he

was the leader of the warriors, but she knew that she had to hold her inner

warrior to herself because even though she can fight, Gideon he's a man with a

stick in his hands and has more strength than her.

"Start with your husband, and you princess,

drag both your parents to the pit and now and stop those tears from running

out, they're disgusting," Gideon said and turned to the door to watch them.

"One mistake of you trying to run away, you will not meet your ancestors but

receive more painful punishment than this."

Ona obeyed. She saw that crying didn't

help. She tried to regain strength, but she never ate the whole day, and again

she was bruised and in her heart and mind in pain.

Her teeth gritted when she grasped both her

parents' arms and tried to drag them. But corpses are heavy, her father is

heavy, and she can't do that alone.

She heard Gideon give out a harsh sigh and

said, "Drag one first."

Nia wished to help Ona and she felt

relieved hearing Gideon's words so she slightly dragged Kael to wait for Ona.

When Ona reached her side she said, "I'm

sorry Ona, if I didn't persuade you to give that ill evil man a chance - if I'd

known I would-," Nia was cut off by Ona.

Ona sniffled then said, "Kalus fooled

everyone. The two fooled everyone, if they managed to fool the King and Queen,

then who are we?"

"But I'm sorry Ona," Nia repeated and this

time, she was crying so hard.

"There's something I've never told anyone,

I used to have this recurring dream about a man, but in the dream, I can't see

his face and we both fell madly in love with each other," Ona's voice was

becoming rough and faint, with how the pressure and weight by dragging her

mother it was overcoming her last strength.

The night was slowly engulfing the kingdom

and Nia saw that Gideon was far away from them, so she grasped Ona's dead

mother by the arm and helped her while she was also dragging her dead husband.

"Tell me more about the dream," Nia said.

"It was like I'm fated to be in love with

that man, everything felt so right but he was hurt, emotionally and physically

and I could feel all his sorrows and feelings, the dream kept on till Kalus

came and they stopped, so I gave Kalus a chance because I thought he was the

man in my dream, clearly I was wrong."

"It's understandable and don't beat

yourself up, okay…. I will protect you no matter what, you have me," Nia said

with an assurance tone.

They reached the pit. Nia rolled her dead

husband as Ona did the same to her mother and pushed them inside the pit. They

both could hear the bodies hitting the rocks. It gave them strong knots in

their bodies and both vomited. Something crawled in their stomachs.

Ona started crying, Nia stretched her arms

to welcome her but the loud shout of, "Heyyyyy…." Distorted them. "Where do you

think you two you're going?" Gideon was fuming walking to the two servants who

were trying to escape to the gates.

"S… s… sorry," One of the servants was

trying to apologize but she received a whip on her butt and there goes for the

other one.

They whimpered in pain and there was

nothing Ona and Nia could do.

"Carry on, it's getting late," Gideon said

and didn't leave their side.

Ona and Nia didn't even get the chance to

say their goodbyes to their loved ones when rolling them into the pit.

Hours went by while the ladies were

dragging all the dead bodies to the pit. Strength was no longer in their bodies

when all of them finished.

Gideon walked to the two who tried to

escape and harshly pushed them into the pit and said, "This is your punishment

for disobeying me."

He pushed them inside the pit fire alive.

Their hard screams disappeared the moment

they hit the ground.

Ona made a scream but Nia covered her mouth

and eyes to her shoulder.

Gideon walked the three ladies into the

house where they found Kalus neat and eating food by the dinner table.

"Grab food and eat on the floor, and be

quick," Kalus said finishing up his food inside the silver-gray metal plate.

Nia could feel Ona stiffen her body and

whispered, "This is no time to be stubborn Ona, you have to eat to gain

strength, please. Eat as many as you can."

The ladies trotted to the table filled with

various food and started grabbing the metal plates and filling the plates with

all the food they could grab and trotted to the floor and started shoving them

inside their mouths.

The ladies got smudged by dirt and ashes

all over their faces and hair. Ona's black hair was a total mess, along with

Nia's red hair and the other servant, her hair it was blonde more like Kalus's.

Damn…. Ona ate like she had never been a

princess. A slave in her kingdom.

A tear dropped as she stole a glance at

Kalus who stood up and looked so radish, in his blonde hair, long nose, glowing

white skin, and in his white sleeping clothes while wearing dark brown sandal

shoes.

"Eat quickly princess and come upstairs and

take a good shower, you know your duty, and I don't want to come here…. I want

to find you on your bed, naked, squeakily clean, and ready for me," Kalus said

before ascending the stairs.

Ona ate as quickly as she could and took a

glance at Nia then jogged to the stairs and her bedroom - poured her healing

salt in the bathtub and started scrubbing her body with soup and rough

scrubbing sponge and trying so hard not to even think about anything because

she didn't want to delay herself.

In the meanwhile, Gideon was done eating.

He stood up and said, "You two follow me."

Nia and the servant dropped their food and

followed Gideon.

Gideon took them to the King and Queen's

bedroom and threw the bags to them.

"Pack everything valuable and you know not

to mess with me," his voice was a bit calmer, and watched every movement of

them.

****

Kalus walked inside Ona's bedroom and found

her exactly as he ordered with changed sheets to the soft royal blue duvet.

He smirked at her and said, "I love good

girls who obey. This is what princesses do, they serve."

Kalus caught something by the wall. He

walks and passes the bed and comes to a halt.

"Is this piece of shit you were telling me

about? This is shit." He pointed at the painting. The first painting Ona

painted when she was young. "This is shit princess and not valuable." He turned

his vicious snake eyes to Ona and started walking again. "Now face up and have

your knees up high and open those chocolate brown thighs for me princess. Wider

princess."

Ona felt her heart thud and felt like tears

were falling down in her insides and burning her heart with something hard

forming in her throat making her to keep gulping the unknown.

"Don't start with those fucking tears

again. Your face has to be dry, not damp like your hair," fuck.

If only I had the strength or magic to

twist his neck with my eyes. I was going to twist the evil soul out of him. And

enjoy watching him taking his last breath.

Ona watched Kalus stripping himself while

his vicious eyes were on Ona's pussy. So this is what Kalus is interested at.

Kalus don't like kisses, if only I could find a poison flower or herb and put

it inside – I don't care if we both die.
