ARE YOU MY HUSBAND?

The room where Claire was kept was painted black, in fact, the bed, the wardrobe, everything about the room was black, when she thought she could finally get over the black colour,

Boom, her dresses are all black.

" am not a widow for heaven sake" Claire lamented, she hates now, she never had any preference for colours before but now she hates black with passion.

she sat down on the Queen sized bed , as different thought run through her mind, just then the door cracked open and an unknown man who she hasn't met before walked in.

" Hi, sorry to disturb your beautiful evening, am Ezekiel" the handsome young man said standing across the room. the name Ezekiel click on Claire's memory, as she remembered the king asking Arthur about Dwight and Ezekiel.

" am Claire.. Claire Layton " Claire said standing up.

" nice to meet you Claire"

" same here" Claire responded before sitting.

" so have you had anything to eat or drink" at the thought of it Claire suddenly realised that since yesterday, she hasn't eaten anything and she's not even feeling hungry, maybe it's because of her heavy heart. she looked up to Ezekiel who was waiting for her answer and then shook her head.

" What's!, you mean you have not eaten anything?" Claire was suddenly taken back by his rage, why does he care?.

" Servants" Ezekiel shouted and within few seconds more than ten girls probably the maids rushed in.

" you called my prince?" the maids asked in Union, while bowing their heads.

" why haven't she had anything to eat?" Ezekiel asked, the maids looked at each other, before one of them answered.

" we were waiting for the king's order"

" the king's order?, don't you know she's married to a prince of this kingdom? she's your princess now, now get lost and get something for her this instance" Ezekiel shouted at the maids didn't hesitate, every single one of them ran out.

" sorry for their misbehaviour" Ezekiel said turning back to face Claire who was now confused, he treated the maids like they are nothing and now he's caring for her.

" it's okay" Claire brushed it off.

" okay then, I will be back once you're fully dressed and eaten something" Ezekiel said, before Claire could even think, he was out of the room then a maid entered.

" am Sara and I will be your personal maid" the girl said, she has red hair which was long and reaching her hip, her skin was just as white as snow and she has Hazel eyes, all in all she looks extraordinary beautiful, speaking of being beautiful, everyone she has met so far in this kingdom are just super when it comes to beauty, although Arthur might be expressionless, he still looks amazing including Ezekiel, now the third person she hasn't seen, happens to be Dwight which made her wonder how he will look like

" okay, what do I do?" Claire asked Sara.

" first you will take a bath, dress up and then eat your dinner" Sara explained while Claire nod her head in understanding. Sara clapped her hands twice and three more maids walked in causing Claire to cess her brow.

" Mona and Irene, you two are incharged of her feeding, Vera and I will take care of other things understood?" Sara said, the three maids nod , Mona and Irene left the room leaving Claire with only Vera and Sara.

" m'lady, it's time for you to take your bath" Sara said walking over to a door which she opened, Claire stood from the bed and followed her into the bathroom.

when they got into the bathroom, Claire was frozen, a simple bathroom now looks like her entire house, the bathroom was huge and wide, a bathtub was at the extreme end of the bathroom and looking at the right was the shower, at lease this castle has some Morden suite in it.

the girls helped Claire strip, although she was shy, still yet she allowed them since she doesn't know the custom of this kingdom. the moment Claire stepped into the bathtub all her worries were encaved in the water.

*****************

" I love your hair m'lady" Sara said , she stare at Claire from the mirror.

" thank you" Claire responded, she is now fully dressed in black as usual while Sara make her hair, Vera is currently not with them.

" don't worry m'lady, you will like it here" Sara said trying to encourage Claire but Claire knew she will never like it here not without Chris.

" do you know who am married to?" Claire couldn't help herself but to ask, Sara tried to avoid her gaze from the mirror but it was already late.

" uhmm...." she tried to find the word to use because she knew that she isn't in the right position to tell her anything.

As if lady luck was on Sara side a knock came on the door.

" I'll get that" Sara said , leaving Claire, she walked towards the door and open it.

" your Highness" Sara said while bowing.

" are you done?" Ezekiel asked her.

" yes my prince" Sara replied, to her it will be nice to leave Claire's questions for prince Ezekiel to answer.

" you can leave" Ezekiel said, Sara didn't hesitate, she walked out of the room.

„ how are you?" Ezekiel asked while making his way into the room.

" fine" Claire gave a straight answer, she turned to face Ezekiel who was still standing, Mona and Irene walked in , bow to both of them, both girls were carrying a tray of food which they place on the table before leaving.

" you should eat and rest " Ezekiel said.

" are you my husband?" Claire finally asked, Ezekiel chuckled at her question.

looking at him, Claire was mesmerised, he looks just as handsome as Arthur although younger, his ocean deep blue eyes were indeed captivating, it was obvious he tinted his hair, he was putting on a pair of white t-shirt with blue rip Jean with sneakers, if he's a collage boy, he will sure be the hottest on campus, cos he gives out the bad boy Vibe.

" am not" Ezekiel replied, he walked over to the bed and sat down on it, Claire narrowed her brows.

" I'm prince Ezekiel Penticton, third prince of Vamlan and the third son of King Roland Penticton" Ezekiel said smiling at her.

" then who is my husband?"

" prince Dwight Penticton, crown prince of Vamlan and first son of King Roland Penticton"

Claire almost fainted, she's married to a crown prince?

this is going to be the worst mistake she has ever made.
