" Welcome Your Majesty. "
" Welcome My King. "
Were the greetings Charles received as he Walked through the Hallway.He was visibly Angry at everything.Just everything Starting from when his Staff and Robe got missing and the part that he haven't gotten Marked child yet. And the silence of the gods. Like,it's so tiring....
It triggers all anger in him.And luckily all his servants aviod him like a Fly. They made sure they were feets away from him. Except from Kai and Tiger.Who have the right to be close to him
"Get Me Kai!". Charles ordered,not minding Who will deliver his message for him.
He was so annoyed,angry and Vexed up.
Like he was totally boiling inside of him as he entered his Chamber.
One of the Guards quickly carried out his order. He went to the training and called Kai.
Who didn't waste a Bit of time to answer his king.

THE KING'S CHAMBERLAIN
Kai got the message of the King requesting for his presence and didn't hesitate to answer him. He entered the king's chamber and somehow find it empty.Only the sound of water from.the bathroom,made him believe that His Majesty is having a Night shower.
"Come Here Kai!". Charles Cold voice called out.Of course Charles have a sharp sense of hearing. He heard when Kai got into his room.
Kai of course went to the large Gigantic Bathroom.His Majesty was resting on his Jacuzzi filled with Steamy soapy water.
He's eyes were closed,and his finger tapping impatiently on his Golden Jacuzzi.
"Your Highness,,You sent for me". Kai Bowed when he came in.
"Hmm!". Charles Hummed and silence reigned.
"How was it,, Your Highness... ". Kai asked worriedly.
Charles hissed before replying him.
"Just like before... No answers. And the little one he saw,he screamed ABOMINATION and Disappear?". Charles answered absentmindedly..
He's minds are still in the reason Idon just screamed ABOMINATION and Disappear.
What exactly did he saw.
Was he that scared of telling him???.
Damn!!!!. Who should be the reason of that word ABOMINATION!.
It doesn't relate to his inhabitants,, Charles got a feelings that Idon's word was clearly for him.
Kai who was surprised at his word had so many questions to ask..But don't know how to start.He don't want to ask a question that will trigger his Majesty.He's face still hurt from his previous blow He simply hummed and kept shut.
"Where's Tiger". Charles asked after some Minutes of silence.
"He's with the Trainees,,Your Highness!". Kai Answered immediately.
"Go Get me that slave Girl.". Charles ordered with a Tone of finality.
"Sure!". Kai Bowed a little before leaving to carry out his order.
Charles eye went open.He grumpily came out of his Jacuzzi Nakedly. And went straight to the shower,,to refresh completely.

THE MISTRESSES CONSORTIUM
Maria Giggled deeply inside of her as she stare at her fellow Mistresses and concubines. No one has been able to Conceive for the King not to talk of winning his heart, except her.Like,,it ain't Bad to Give them a little Heartbreaking Mockery.
It's a win win for her,, and Loosed Game.for them.
Getting the king's attention to be in charge of his slave is mostly second to requesting to be his crown Queen and Partner.And after becoming the Crown Queen,,she can't wait to kick their silly Asses out of this Dynasty.
Cos their Service Ain't needed anymore.
Who want to be with a fruitless Damsels.
"Ouch!!. That really hurt". She uttered and giggles again. Flashing her glassy nails at her competitors. SORRY.... Loosers.
"Can you just tell us the Main reason you choose to summon us here at this late hour?!". Lia choose to speak out.
Like her childish Giggles are becoming so annoying.
"Thank you for Adding the word LATE HOUR.. cos I think she's DUMB to know of such". Dora Fired and Maria narrowed her eye at her.
"Mind your Words... Dora!". She warned.
"And what will you do,,if I don't Mind my words???". Dora Questioned with a Raised brows.
Maria chuckled and pouted childishly.
"Yunno!?. Exchanging words with a Fruitless Damsel issa No No for me!." Maria uttered in a Mocking Tone.
Just to trigger Dora,,but the latter didn't care one a a bit.
"At least,,I'm a fruitless Damsel.. not to compare a High way Prostitute that can't even produce and Actual Marked child for His Majesty. What you know is to Birth children as useless and stupid as you're?!". Dora Clapped back at her. And Maria's face changed.
"Awwnn ... That was Awesome Dora!!". Lia and Mandy stated in unison. "I love that!".
The other Concubines dare not involved in the rising hot matter. To aviod being punished by the King. They just have to sit and watch what's being displayed before them. But for sure,, they all Hate Maria.
"At least,,my Gracious Womb is So Capable and Strong enough to Carry the Royal Child .... Unlike yours that Can't even carry a fly?!". Maria Clapped back at them and the long awaited quarrel began.
"You haven't bear a Royal Child Yet Maria!!!. So stop praising yourself. You just birthed 2 Useless flies".. Mandy Explain in a Calm tone.
"Yep.. 2 Useless flies that the King not only rejected...". Lia supported.
"But chased away... I mean,, those flies are actually Disgusting to keep in a Sacred place like this?".Dora completed Lia's word.
Those words alone hit Maria Hard at her Brain. And the little laughter from the concubines triggered her Anger the Most.
"My kids aren't a fly... So far they Bear the Royal blood. They're surely a Member of this Dynasty".
"And you think a child with the Royal blood will last with it... No!!. It won't happen". Lia uttered.
"Once the Royal Child with the Royal Mark is Born,, those flies of yours will become a Citizen of the MUMBAI. Just enjoy yourself when you have the chance". Dora snarled.
"Of course... Of course... Then the Main Question is??. Who will bear the Marked child. Is it you???". Maria point at Dora. "Or you". She point at Lia. "Or you" she point at Mandy. "What about you". She points at Monica who has been silent all the while.
"Yh!!. No one is capable enough to Carry the Kings Child. You all do end up with the story that Touches the heart. Miscarriage... Miscarriage.. and Miscarriage.. And More More Miscarriages to come. No one of you is Capable of birthing the Marked Child. Just leave it up to me. I will Birth the Marked Child and when Such Happens.. what next Babysss.. I will become the Next Queen and of course. Kick your silly A** out of my House!."
Clap. Clap. Clap.
Monica began clapping for Maria.
"What you just said is just like a Story... TYPICAL STORY...".
"Exactly... She's has been daydreaming for long that she had to summon us to daydream with her".
"More stories for the gods... Like I don't understand . Are you so Foolish to wish your fellow woman Miscarriage???. Oh. Oh. Oh. I get it. You rejoice at our back once we have miscarriage and pretend to sympathize with us?." Dora asked feeling a little bit hurt at Maria's statement.
"What else do you expect from a Black sheep.. she wants everything to herself. And I promise, you won't ever birth the marked child..".Lia Flared.
"You won't Maria,,, And it's A cursee word from us. You will also Have a Miscarriage like us, And your Womb won't ever bear a Mark child for our King". Monica Cursed Maria.
Which Maria Caredless.
"I don't care Whatever you guys say... Don't worry,,I'm already your queen. Just a word and my King will make me his Queen. Can't you see?. I'm now incharge of his slaves,,or do you think I'm playing???".
"That's doesn't make you A Queen Maria... It makes you look like a desperate B*tch".
"Or do you think our King is as stupid and dumb as you're. You think he will ever stoop so low to crown you his Queen. ".
"The Queen's crown can't even fit in that empty skull of yours. That crown needs a Matured well Behaved Girl from a Royal family. We might be the one or they" Mandy points at the concubines." Might be the lucky ones. So Mind you Maria,, That crown ain't for you. Get that into yha Skull". Mandy Castigated.
Maria laughed heartily and stick her tongue to them
"Well,,,My own story won't touch your Heart as Yours do... You will sit and watch as the drama unfolds. No one will sit on that Queen's throne if not me!. I .... Maria is the Next Queen of MUMBAI DYNASTY . Go and Argue with you Keyboards?".
Mandy,Lia,Dora and Monica stared at each other before looking at her. "You're obsessed Maria and someone with a High Obsession for the throne won't get it. BET ME" Dora dared.
"I rather die than Have you as My Queen. You Filthy thing!'. Lia spat at Maria.
"Well,, I don't have much to say. Since you called us to mock us. Thanks for the Mockery,he who laugh first,,cry at last. Write this down Maria... Mark today's date,that throne won't be yours". Monica dared and stood up.
" I'm out of Here..". She said before walking out.
Mandy,Lia and Dora all stood up.
"Mark today's date in your calendar Maria.. you laughed heartily today,, I will do the same to you on the D-Day.".
"I will Make.sure you cry a River!".
"Stupid witch... You will Have dozens of Miscarriages".
And with that,,, they all stomp out.
Leaving the concubines behind.
Maria Chucked at their empty threats
She's the next queen and no one,not even them will oppose it.
"Get out of my sight.. FOOLS!!!". She snapped at the concubines who hurriedly rushed out of the consortium.
Maria laughed and laughed and laughed.
It's so sweet annoying her competitors.
And she can't wait to see the surprise look on their faces when she birth the Marked child.
And.
Become the queen of MUMBAI DYNASTY ....

THE SLAVE HOUSE
"Where's she... Where is the Kings slave??". Kai Thundered at the slaves who all panicked in response.
" She's here. " One of the slave who was quick to get Sonia out of where they locked her.
Quickly pushed her forward. The other slowly let out the Breath they were holding.
Sonia staggered and fell on the floor.
She wasn't done washing the plates before one of them came with a threat. Before dragging her out.
"Why are you not in your room?". Kai asked with a Narrowed eye. He knows what happened but wants to hear it from her mouth before taking action.
"I... I...I... Went... to.. check.on.. something". She stammered with a Hoarse voice.
That slave that brought her out smiled .
She should have spilled the truth and faced their wrath.
"You went to check on what??". Kai knew she actually lied but want to flow with her lies.
".. I...I...." Sonia became tongue tie.
She don't know how to lie. Kai glared at the Slaves before dragging Sonia up.
"Follow me... The King sent for you".Kai ordered and began dragging her out.
Sonia's heart plapitated as she was being dragged out. But have no right to Question.
She felt so weak,cheap, tired and used.
No other words to use and explain her feelings
Just when will all this end!.
