'Clank...'
Wales continued hitting his hands against the wall as they began to bleed .
He didn't care about his bleeding hands but his love's pain .
Enough ...son enough ,Queen Marga said and pulled him in his embrace like a little boy .
Rubbing her hands in his long hair ,she cushioned him like a little baby .
'Ma..Mama ...Kry..Krys is in pain and it's all my fault .She wanted to end her life because of me ...all because of me Mama .
Queen Marga couldn't bear seeing her son being in such a debilitating pain as his knees fell to the ground in disdain .
While tears rolled around the corners of his almond red eyes ,he wondered if he got any life left .
It was as if he was breathing but basically the part that made him live and push on in life was cut off .
His body flushed nonchalantly when he thought about those who had caused his beloved such pain .
All he could think of was of exacting his revenge and he knew who he would take it on as he gathered some momentum and picked himself up from the floor .
He walked towards the exit door ...
'Son ,where are you going to ? Queen Marga who was so worried about her son"s state and at the same time ,Krystal's health condition asked with her round ball eyes .
Constantly ,she would wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her left hand just to assure her son that they would fight this trouble together .'
Mama ....he called in a sweet yet devastated and wicked smile .
With his eyes filled with so much rage ,he felt as if he would bleed into hemorrhage .
I'm going to make things right ,he said and exited the door .
'Buh...but son ,Queen Marga stretched forth her son towards him .
Though his voice was calm and relaxed ,it had a sense of threat in it and who better than his mother would know this since she raised him.
As she put out her legs forward to follow him ,a hand from behind held her wrist firmly .
'Let him go Marga ,Esther said from behind with her short messy hair and peach-red pinkish lips .
Her words were calm and appreciable and it managed to reach Queen Marga's ears .'
What happened to your hair ?
Queen Marga asked as she had now realized how messy and short her hair looked like .
She was surprised with the sudden change because Esther had this long grey hair which fell underneath her butt .
She would normally braid two sides and flung her hair since she appreciated it so much .
'I cut it ,she quickly answered and grabbed a hair brush from Queen Marga's dressing table and combed her hair nicely .
She looked good in short hair and her dimples were all exposed as she blushed taking a good look at herself and her blonde nature .'
...
Rhian took a good look at herself in the mirror .With her hands on her cheeks ,she felt a warm aura ran through her face .
The slaps she received earlier reflected in mind and she cursed Krystal inwardly however ,there was this smile on her face when she thought about Wales .
Her round rosy face ,snub nose ,her dark hair which was piled up in a chignon were finally released and they fell below her butt smoothly .
Applying more red paint on her pert lips ,she wore a nylon dress which almost exposed all her body parts yet ,nothing underneath .
Rubbing some oils into her skin ,flashbacks from earlier with Wales dropped in mind .
He had promised to be a loving husband to her so Rhian wasn't going to miss out this chance of making Wales hers forever .
Just by this thought ,she froze in place as she imagined what it would feel to be in Wales' arms and waking up by his side each morning with a glance of his broad chest and his smooth face which would blush each time he wore a smile unknowingly .
In an awe ,she thought and heard the door slam hardly behind her .
The sound of it could damage anyone's ears if heard twice .
Her heart pounced and took a second look at herself in the mirror .
'Perfect ...she grinned and decided to meet her husband .'
Wales ,you're back ....she cautiously called his name .There was a small smile on her clean face .
Nonetheless ,when she approached him ,he grabbed her arm and roughly threw her on the bed .
The joints of his fingers were distinct as he forcefully pinched her chin .
'Wa...Wales ,she quirked up the corners of her lips with her heart convulsing in pain .
She hardly breathed as his cold ,deep ,dark eyes were exuding a sharp ray of light like an eagle in the night .'
She always knew that Wales had a bad temperament and she witnessed it so many times but then ,it was different this time .
His temperament was a double dose of what she witnessed, however,in his current state ,she couldn't ignore his beauty .
How can a man be so beautiful ?
She asked as she wanted to gasp for air .Pushing Wales with all her strength ,she quickly got up from the bed and held her thin neck .
'Coughs ! ....she coughed from beneath her throat and leaned her hands against the dressing mirror .
Once she gasped some air after a while ,she decided to speak up .
'W....what has come over you Wales ?
You promised to be a good husband but why are you treating me like this ?
She held her neck firmly and still stood by the dressing mirror terrified of the man she was seeing now .
Stay away from me ,she cautioned with panic as her legs were shaking and her hands felt numb from picking up a weapon .
Rhian was a genius in sword fighting however ,in her current situation ,she couldn't even pick up a weapon as she was scared to death .
The sight of Wales alone could kill her at once so she didn't hesitate to run .
Pushing herself to run ,she bumped into the door which Wales had strongly locked .
There was no escape route now since all windows were closed .
She continued going back but consequently ,she made no progress either than bump into the door over and over .
Reaching out for a metal rod which was lying next to her on the right ,she picked it up firmly and cautioned Wales to stay away or else ,she would end his life .
As a princess ,she was trained perfectly in sword fighting and one outmost rule was that , 'the enemy 's life was not considerate as hers ' .
Bearing this thoughts of her father's teachings in mind ,she grabbed on to the metal rod firmly with both hands ready to attack if Wales ventured .
Wales who had waged and won many battles wasn't perturbed about the metal rod.
He kept on moving forward and Rhian who was scared as a rat ,stood there shakingly .
'I said stay away from me ,she shouted launching the metal rod directly at Wales .One thing was for sure ,she never missed her target but with Wales ,her efforts were in vein .
He caught the metal rod in his palms and pulled her closer with his hands on her waist and hers on her shoulders .
Rhian quickly dropped the rod as she was in his arms .She suddenly felt weak and succumb to his breath .
She liked his honeysuckle scent and even though moments ago ,Wales played a deadly game with her ,she couldn't care as she was now in his arms .
Wales leaned closely into her and passed his hands over her ; something Rhian felt over her body as a tickle .
She was breathing faster as he kissed her ; his kisses were hot and sweet but that dream ended as she felt the metallic taste of blood in her mouth.
She pulled away quickly from his arms and realized how soaked her mouth was with blood .
She felt nauseous and started vomiting blood .Wales had bitten her gum so badly that it felt like she was stabbed with a sword from behind .
Never in her entire life had she been treated like this before.
She didn't have time to even gasp for air when Wales threw her harshly on the bed .
He went closer to her and melted kisses on her shoulder .
His kisses were piercing and it felt as if fire had been lit in Rhian's body .
Her body was hurting with his kisses and she couldn't have him continue anymore .
Once more ,she pushed him away but Wales grabbed her hair from behind and threw her on the bed .
With her hands pinned by Wales ,Rhian was mainly a dummy .She was so vulnerable that she begged for mercy .
'Wales no ,she screamed on top of her voice as he ripped off her dress into two .'
Didn't you want this ?
Why are you rejecting it now Rhian ?
You kept pestering me all day long and now ,you are the one pushing me away .
How cheap are you willing to sell yourself to have me go to bed with you ,huh ?
'Any extent ,Rhian thought as she recalled what happened five years ago .
She was ready to stoop so low at a cheap state just to get Wales to love her .
She dazed him and decided to go to bed with him but fortunately ,Carmen appeared there on time and stopped Rhian from executing her cheap plans on her love .
'How dare you ?
Carmen landed a slap on her face .
How low would you stoop to take my man away from me ?
Haven't you and your mother done enough harm already ?
What more do you want ,Rhian ?
You are such a greedy ,selfish and envious bi*ch .
Knowing perfectly well that Wales and I love each other ,you have intentionally made up your mind to separate us .
Do you have a heart at all ,Rhian ?
Hehe ,Rhian gritted her teeth and folded her arms to her chest proudly .
You don't deserve Wales and he doesn't deserve you either because you are nothing compared to me .
I don't care if you both love each other to death but then ,as far as I have my eyes set on him,it means he 's mine .
He's my man ; she said pointing to herself in pride with her index finger firm to her chest .
'You have no shame Rhian .I don't think you have blood running through your veins. An inhumane person like you will never snatch my love away from me .
Just admit it that you have been jealous of me since childhood because I'm better than you .
Everyone loved me and I was Father's beloved ; something you always wished for and that's why you and your shameless mother did all you could to seduce and corrupt father's mind against my mother and I so that you could take our place in his heart and the kindgom .
'How dare you Carmen ? ,Rhian slapped her and Carmen didn't hesitate to doubly return her favour .
