BETROTHED TO THE ALPHA

“But how could you all be careless to allow snakes inside the dungeon what if they harmed her which I’m they did!” King Archer yelled angrily at his guards who knelt down in shame for not protecting their queen.

“My king we are sorry and we know that we deserved to be punished badly but still my king, I left the queen in there without any sign of snakes, this is the first time we are encountering snakes in this castle and I am shocked to my bone marrow” Otis pleaded to the Very angry King whose veins where already popped out in anger.

Indeed this is the first time, the castle is so secured that no wild animal or parasite can come in, they wondered how the snakes had come in and why it must be inside the dungeon where the queen lay.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Agent fox was behind the snakes attacking the dungeon, it was a plan between him and Queen Zinnia with the motive to hurt queen pearl.

Fox passed through the passage leading to the dungeon as he knew that all the guards in charge of discipline where eating, went through the passage with the box he kept the snakes in and a lamb.

He got to the dungeon and noticed that it was tightly locked, lucky enough there was a space under where he made the snakes snake through, he had been bitten by one but he already made an antidote available.

That was how the snakes got into the dungeon, Fox stood by the side of the king acting as if nothing had happened, he was angry noticing that the snakes hadn’t harmed pearl as he wanted.

The poison in the snake could terminate the pregnancy if it had bitten her but it didn’t still work.

Soon the doctor came in…

“Has she been sleeping since?” The doctor asked as he scanned through Pearls body.

“She has been like this, I think the snake bite her” Archer said as he ran his hands through his thick dark hair in frustration as he tried pulling his side cut back which still came back to it’s position.

“There is nothing wrong with the queen only that one of the snakes might have passed her laps causing this mark” the doctor said as he pointed at the red mark on her laps “but that isn’t a problem King Archer, I will drop a cream that will heal it fast… The queen seems too weak and that’s the main reason she hasn’t woken up, has she eaten anything?” He asked as everyone shaked their heads.

King Archer suddenly felt guilty for throwing Pearl into the dungeon, he would have punished her in a different way all together maybe this wouldn’t have happened, what if she lost her baby?… That would be the worst.

“Get her a lemonade to drink so that she can regain her strength first then make her food ready, that all she needs now” the doctor said as King Archer threw a bag of pounds to him which he smiled at.

“Thank you my king, I will be leaving now” the doctor bowed and made to the door.

“No doctor you can’t go, it’s too late the guards will prepare a room for you” the doctor nodded.

The king turned to the guards and gave them a hard glare.

“Are you all still here!!” He yelled as they all ran out to go message the maids, it was late in the night and the maids were probably asleep.

“Fox do you think what I did was wrong?” The king asked Agent fox who shrugged.

“Not exactly my king, she did something bad and deserves to be punished, maybe you went too hard on her” Agent fox had to say that in other not to sound suspicious or as if he indeed hated the queen.

“Yeah I went too far in punishing her” the king said coldly in frustration as a maid walked in with a glass of lemonade.

“My king should I feed her the drink?” The maid asked as Archer walked to the bed where pearl lay.

“I will take care of her, just go get her meal” he said and sat down at the corner of the bed and placed pearls head on his laps.

Another maid came in with the food and kept it on the table.

“You all should go, I will take care of my wife even you Fox” the way he mentioned the word WIFE sounded possessive.

Just as they where leaving, Zinnia walked in to see the King doing to Pearl what he has never done for her and that got her heart burning in range, she couldn’t just watch the king treat Pearl in such a nice way when she has never had a sweet moment with the king.

“My king there is no need doing all this when we have hundreds of maids in this castle, you are literally taking your crown off to serve her!” Zinnia muttered in a jealous tone as the king kept on trying to get a good amount of lemonade into pearls mouth.

“Zinnia I see nothing wrong in taking care of my wife, by the way you caused this” the king said coldly not looking at zinnia.

“My king I am your wife and you have other wives but you haven’t treated any of us in such a nice way but here you are doing just that for your new wife!” Zinnia muttered as tears streamed down her eyes.

“Zinnia leave this room or I will call the guards to help you out” the king warned now glaring at Zinnia with his burning hazel eyes that was filled with fury, he was already getting disgusted by the words zinnia said but yet he was surprised for what he was doing.

Was he really caring for his wife, he never had such time to care or love any of his wife’s but here he is treating Pearl like his queen, he didn’t know the feeling he was having for pearl but he could swear that he doesn’t like the feeling and he wouldn’t let the feeling take a better part of him.

Zinnia ran back into her room in tears, just when she thought she has won the king’s heart back and made pearl suffer the worst happened!, It was just as if the more she tries the hurt Pearl the more she get closer to the king’s heart.

Pearl was literally laying on the king’s bed peaceful and the king taking care of her, none of the Queen’s has experience such sweet side of king archer, they only lay on his bed during sex or should we call it fvck as it wasn’t love making and once the king is done pleasuring himself he would ask them to leave immediately in an unpleasant manner.

None of the Queen’s has experienced love from the king but here Pearl is enjoying the feel of Archer’s good treat.

But you can’t blame the king anyways, Pearl is his only wife that was betrothed to him which means his legal wife, she was betrothed to him right from when they where young but the rest of them where married out if lust.

I woke up hungry and weak, I had slept hungry in that cold dungeon floor but woke up to find myself in the red velvet room which clicked to me that I was in the king’s room.

I expected to wake up still in the dungeon but I rather woke up in the king’s room why is that?.

I stretched my body tiredly as I noticed that my previous dress has been changed into a comfortable night garment, I tried remembering what happened in the night but I couldn’t remember anything all I could remember was sleeping over in the dark dungeon.

I hope the king isn’t the one that changed my dress though… No way he will change my clothe without fvcking me, I wasn’t fvcked as I don’t feel heavy underneath.

But then what am I doing here?…

My eyes drifted to the covered food on the table which made my hunger appetite increase.

I drew the food closer as I dug into it, soon I was done eating and made my way out of the room to see the king sitting on his throne and addressing two guards.

“Ohh… You’re awake” the king muttered as a slight smile curved his lips, this is the second time of seeing him smile so beautifully.

“Yes and I will be heading back to my room” I said as I bowed.

” You won’t be going back to your room until I am sure you are fine” he said as I wrinkled my forehead puzzled.

“Of course I am fine” I said in a question manner, I was confused by what he meant by that because I am okay and I sure if that.

“A maid will be bringing a dress for you, and get prepared tomorrow we are traveling to Prussiate” he said and turned back to his guards.

I walked back to his room as it was clear that I wasn’t going back to my room anytime soon, I will have to stay with him here and that means I won’t escape him, he will fvck me anytime any day.

And now another news, I can’t just stay a day in this castle without one meeting or outing or the other, what is the reason for traveling to Prussiate.

Prussiate is a bad kingdom and they enemies with Guham kingdom, I have a bad feeling about going to that kingdom.
