HIS OBSESSION?
(The royal second wife?
Episode eight
“That’s in your bedroom lady. Apart from bragging around like a useless chick, given orders without doing anything. Unable to conceive, What’s next can you brag about!” Princess Avalon asked coming behind her.
WOW! I thought she would be on her side but no, it was the opposite. Guess they aren’t on good side’s.
“Hey! how dare you,!”She charged towards her and wanted to slapped her. She held her hand right in the air. She jerks it away and moved closer to her. She put her mouth beside her left ear..
“Don’t dare try this again, if not”A smirk played by the corner of her mouth.
“Don’t think you can threatened me. Better stop this right now, how could you keep insulting me? What was my offense? An I the one who gives child”She asked with teary eyes. “Crocodile tears that’s what I hate must, so be aware. Pretender” She yelled with a grin.
I feel some pity for her, but why did I feel there’s something I rebel about her. I don’t always feel hatred for someone from the beginning unless you treated me badly, but I hate her already, where is the strange feeling coming from?
“Stop all this if not”She wailed.
“If not what? For your information I will stop the day you decide to leave my brother for good and not to return, barren lady” She make a Mockery of her.
“I hate you” She cried and rushed out of the room, her maid following her behind. Princess Avalon makes a wicked smile.
“Why would you say such thing to her when you are a lady? that’s too harsh. You shouldn’t insulted her because she’s unable to give birth. She’s not the one who gives children. Well I don’t know the riff between you guys but I think that’s so bad”I try advising her.
“Don’t mind her, she’s so Silly for trying to give you rules In your palace. Your husband owns here and no one should give you orders.
I was just trying to cautioned her. Common lets me call those who will make you up” She said smiling.
“All I am saying is that what you did was bad”I insisted. She stay silence for sometimes.
“Well, I don’t need to convince you about how evil that lady was. Don’t worry I can handle things, let’s do your makeup” She said.
” I don’t do makeup. Your brother already forced me to dress the way he wanted yesterday, not you again today” I said and cover my mouth, but it was too late.
“Don’t be shy, His Majesty already told me you are a tomboy, is that why you are shy?
Don’t mind, everyone as a pass. Common sister-in-law, you should get ready. It’s has been a while since we’ve partied “She said holding my shoulder.
I could not tell if she was real or fake! I just need to watch out.
I am only here because of my mother, and all this will be over in due time.
“You look sad about this, but it wasn’t my brother’s fault. It was his destiny She said with a pout.
“Destiny I don’t understand, what do you mean? And why does everyone keeps saying this?”I asked.
“I am sorry only the king can tell you this. I am not in the position to tell you. Common let’s get started.
I am sure he will be waiting. And it will be fun tonight. You should understand when uou and your husband are in a room together, It will be fun.
I will have known what wedding night looks like after marriage, buy if I called off my marriage “She said feigning a smile. She looks unhappy.
“Why do you called it off? it seems like you are excited to get married but calling it off makes you unhappy”I assumed glaring at her.
She walks closer to the mirror.
“I am very sad I called off the marriage, but it was for the best. I know everything will be okay soon.
I know I won’t failed in what makes me stopped. Please sis my brother will go through pains being with you but at least always try to make him happy.
He’s the only one I have in this palace that care so much about me, Please, Will you promise me that “She walked up to me and coeled me into a hug.
“I am sorry, I can’t promise you that. I don’t like to make promises that I can’t fulfill”I said and she disengage the hug.
“No problem, I will do that” I said because I have no other option that to say yes even though I know that can’t be possible..
“Thanks. Let’s get ready for the ceremony”She smiled.

Authoress POV
“Stop crying Dylan you should have known Avalon by now. You know she doesn’t like you. So don’t be bothered about her “King Aiden cuddles her wife.
“Why should it be only me, imagine, she even said that in front of my maids and a total stranger.
Is it my fault I am not able to conceived?”She cried.
“Who are you referring to as a stranger!” The king asked.
“She, of course, Twinkle or whatever”She shouted.
“You should calm down and shouldn’t refer to her as a stranger. She’s now a part of this family and you need to accept her as the second wife.
I will deal with Avalon myself, so don’t involve her in this. You are aware of this from the beginning and I told you everything you need to know.
So you shouldn’t be like this, I married her against her wish. She doesn’t even like me” The king cajoled and made sure he didn’t utter any offensive statements.
“I know this will happen, she’s now the talk of the town. THE ROYAL SECOND WIFE right? Now my present won’t be noticed.
Tell me are you in love with her?”She asked glaring at the king.
“What sort of question are you asking me? I am a king and my love is shared between many people. I love everyone equally that’s it. This is the time I needed you most, why are you getting it wrong”He try to make her understand”
“But you are making it looks like is too much to ask. I will leave now “The king stood in annoyance.
She stood up and dragged him back, she hugged him.
“I am sorry, I am scared of losing you to her. She’s Destiny to fight your battle, beautiful, powerful, white witch. All this is enough to take you away from me.
I am scared that I will lose you, I couldn’t even give birth to a child. I am so jealous of her. Please promise you won’t leave me alone” She cried on his chest.
The king hugged and patted her. He makes her sit down.
“I understand your pain and grief. It’s normal, but don’t you know me well? I won’t betray you because you are dear to my heart.
You know I kept her mother from her, but she’s now in a critical condition, I am very scared if anything happens to her then she won’t be able to save us again.
We shouldn’t be selfish. And about being a white witch, that’s a lie. It doesn’t matter. Don’t forget my mother was a white witch but was banished from this palace because of her bad ways. She Killed my stepbrother, my stepmother was a black witch but has a heart of gold. Did you forget all that?
So don’t be baffled, you are a black witch with a heart of gold. Just take her as your younger sister.
Maybe through her, you and Avalon can sort things out. You know she’s a big mouth lady. Don’t be bothered about that” King Aiden consoled her holding her hands while on his knees.
“Thank you so much, you’ve just made my mind be at rest. I promised I won’t be moved again by her words and I will always be by your side” She said smiling, and kissed his lips.

Princess Avalon POV
I never believed she will try to bring the king closer to herself. I hate her with Passion.
How I wish this was Twinkle instead of her. I hate black witches, they are evil, I can’t just stand here.
Everyone is ready. He’s supposed to be there with Twinkle because soon they will be pronounce as husband and wife but he’s here spending time with this idiot.
I can’t just stand here again and watch their stupid scene.
I knocked on the door and barged in without permission.
“When you know you are going to barged In why knock in the first place?”King Aiden asked.
“Because I feel like hitting both of you for the stupidity that’s going on here. The Lady that will save everyone is there waiting and you are here with a mere woman” I thought fuming, how I wish I could say this to his face.
“I am sorry, can you come now. Everyone is waiting including the ROYAL SECOND WIFE, how can you keep her waiting?” I asked with a pout.
“Let’s go, he’s ready,” Dylan said.
“Did I speak to you, senior wife? At least behave like one. You’ve already spent five years wasting our sp*rm, aren’t you tired?
My darling loving brother, please I want you to handle Twinkle softly tonight because I don’t think it will be good if she didn’t enjoy her wedding night.
Mum once told me how wedding night used to be very great. You know this is also how she’s going to gain her powers.
Awww please handle her softly and better, so she can be energized to fight the battle well” I said smiling.
I saw her change of expression.
“Why are you so worried? you’ve had your wedding night before so just shift for another person to enjoy hers “I smiled.
“Shush Avalon, what’s your problem. I will think of what to do with you after the wedding”He Thundered and went out angrily.
“Hey senior wife, how was it? Do you enjoy me pissing you off”I winked and pulled out my tongue in a mocking manner? I went out of the room.

At night
Authoress POV
Avalon rushed into Twinkle’s room.
“Queen Twinkle why are you still here when you are supposed to be in the Majesty’s room? Tonight is your wedding night” Princess Avalon shouted.
Twinkle who was so scared with the way she shouted her name breathed out.
” Stop being silly, I don’t want to, I am very tired. Moreover, why are you referring to me as a Queen? I am Twinkle that’s all “She corrected.
Avalon tries all her possible best to persuade her to change her mind but all proved abortive. She rushed and come back with Queen Dylan.
“Queen Twinkle, you should go and meet the king Inside, he’s waiting,” Queen Dylan said Calmly.
Twinkle looks at her and smirks.
“Don’t Tell me Avalon came to call you and you answered?”Twinkle asked.
“Was that bad, she’s my sister and she came to tell me to do the right thing. And that’s what I am doing”Queen Dylan replied.
“Yes, You must go. My sister Queen Dylan wants you in her husband’s room. Don’t you hear, how dare you try to go against the senior wife’s order?”Princess Avalon asked pretending to be in support of Queen Dylan.
Twinkle watched them and smirked.
” if she’s not ready to we should use our power “Queen Dylan suggested.
She and Avalon used their power and they found themselves with Twinkle in front of the king’s door.
Avalon used her power to open the door while Dylan used hers to pushed her inside.
Avalon closed the door immediately
“It’s cool you called me sister today even after many insults “Queen Dylan smiled.
“Stop daydreaming, you can never be my sister. That’s the only way I could get you to do that for me. I know you will be willing to help.
What a WOW! An infertile lady sent her junior wife to her husband. Great story to write. Bye, senior wife. You are really good to be ordered around” Princess Avalon said with an eyeroll, she laughed and vanished.
“Jeez” She shouted angrily and wanted to forced the door to open but couldn’t.
“Did you forget I locked it? I know you might want to an open the door, but I’m smarter. And one more thing don’t try to appear in his room.
You know his Majesty hates that”Avalon appears and vanished again.
Queen Dylan left angrily.
Avalon appeared and unlocked the power she used in locking the door.
Inside king Aiden’s room
King Aiden was sitting on his swivel chair when Twinkle entered.
She was looking around as everywhere was sparkling just like glitters.
“Seems like here is made of gold?”She thought.
“Have you changed your mind to have decided to show up in my room” The aura in King Aiden’s voice filled the air?
