All the general offer was received Local Ibex army leader Surman and the Ibex army..
The lesser quality made them unhappy and equal punishment was paid accordingly..
Like whenever a farmer brought the grains were small or have lesser quality Surman and the army gave them hard beating as per until it made them happy..
Hakim enjoyed the punishments very much …. even he made sure each punishments must be cruel and hard..
Like once a merchant's gift looked bit old and rusty so Hakim told his wife to hit him until a jar fills up with his husband's blood..
The women could hardly beat her husband hard… so Hakim told her if she can not fill the jar the blood will be filled with her children's…
So the women started to hit her husband crying for mercy…
Hakim laughed hard…. He enjoys those punishments…
Seeing those horrifying and terrifying scenes people was very scared.. some even tried to run for their lives.. But wild dogs were send them to be killed till death takes their soul..
Seeing this the Black Shadow eye's was filled with rage.. but he knew he must keep quiet.. until the right moments will come....calmness is required …
Patience! Patience! Patience!
As the sun began to set down…the performance was ended for the day….
The night passed with grief and crying of women and family members of the departed ones..
The members were thrown out of the gate…
The performers had to wait and take rest in the huts were built to the nearest side of the stage…
The food and the arrangement was not adequate..
Only the Lords and the masters from different regions had plentiful of foods and had proper arrangements..
The Black Shadow had to share a room with four more man. These men came from China. They knew martial arts.. They were speaking mandarin among themselves but the Black Shadow could easily understand them although he pretend not to.
" Lets be clever.. form groups if were are in same side otherwise if we are single wait for the others top reveal their strength. Yes, you are right Chan Yuan the other one said. Listen Xuan Taun you are younger than all of us, but don't be afraid always use your senses.. listen and observe your opponents carefully.. It will make you win he said.''
The Black Shadow knew these are the men with expert skills.. but he has only one aim.. to kill the monster.. kill Hakim Al Tawa..
Next day more and more wealthy man came with more and more expensive offerings and beautiful gifts….
After the offering ceremony other different performance was happening.
The performance kept continuing…. Some performance was good .. some were average but some performance was mind-blowing…
Whenever anyone performed worst by the likes of Prince or the princess the performers were thrown to the snake pits…
The snake pit was by the side of stages or to the cages of the lions ...
There were thousands of snakes crawling in the snake pits and lions cages were filled with big and hungry lions…
Then the dance performance started…
The Black Shadow was mesmerized when he looked at Amina..
She is wearing a pink Pajama and a short blue blouse type dress (like Princess Jasmin…)
She has a pink vail in her face..
But her soft beautiful eyes are so magical… He can feel that he is going deep in her eyes..
While she is dancing her belly looks so attractive .. those bellybutton.. her carves.. moving like a snake..
(What is happening to him.. is he falling for her… why he can not take her eyes of her.. there are other dancers.. some of them were very attractive .. but not like Amina.. why she is looking so special.. Does it me he is falling for her!!!)
The dancers began performing..
Each dancers were wearing beautify costumes and outfits that were unique and looked beautiful…
The dresses were very expensive and colorful..
And dancers were performing vey well..
The dance of Amina seemed to catch the eyes of The Prince Abu Taleb.. So, the prince said to Amina.. excellent.. you are mind blowing…..Who is your owner?
Benjir stood up and said.. My name is Musa Al Sadi… I am the lord of eastern province one thousand miles north....
Ok.. ok .. no more … I am very happy with your dancer.. She deserves a reward for this …
You must meet me in my room at evening..
The prince looked very happy.. tonight you are mine.. you snake charmer.. you beauty…
Benjir said.. yes my highness.. she will attend you at evening..
After the performances Amina was heading towards the restroom.. The Black Shadow meet him and said quietly.. Don't do anything Stupid…You don't need to go alone… I will be there with you..
You don't have to worry about me.. I can take care of myself Amina told the Black Shadow and rushed away..
(Why on earth she is avoiding The Black Shadow.. has she became too weak for him.. she could not understand why even she was rude with him…)
At evening Amina came to meet Prince Abu Taleb.. The Ibex Guards were not happy to see her..
Wait you can not meet the prince.. But I have to otherwise the prince will give you punishment Amina said to the guards.. But the Prince does not wants to be disturbed this time.. He is busy with other girls..
I have to go inside.. The prince wanted me or he will kill you..
Ok wait.. One of the guards said to Amina.. Faisal you search her …
After searching the get let go Amina through…
Wow.. its simply amazing inside. This part of the side has statue made our of the King.. There are well decorated and well protected. There were few rooms. First couple rooms servant were preparing feast rather meal.. these rooms had plentiful food and fruits to eat for probably fifty or more people.. The other rooms were full of different expensive gifts and dresses. Probably clothes and foods for the VIP guest or the Prince. But so many arrangements but not much people in here-Amina wondered.
There were a room which looked very big it had small wooden and stone sculptures. The next room was nice arranged with different types of wooden crafted furniture's with jewelries. There Amina found the prince in between full of half-naked girls. The prince was having fun with the girls were all around him.
The prince looked at him Amina…
Oh my sweet beauty.. I had completely forgotten about you .. Don't worry tomorrow I will be only yours.. But tonight you please come here sit with these amazing girls.. You make aquatics with them. I have to need to sleep tonight. I am too tired now.
Amina turned around to go back.
Wait! Wait my dear!
The prince instantly threw a ruby necklace at Amina.. This is for you.. please come tomorrow evening.. I will be all yours…
Amina picked up the necklace took it her hands and went back…
