The king of Moza continued to stare at his wife who had been brought to stand before him from the cell. He went closer to her and held her face. "My precious wife. The woman that beats in my chest. The Queen of the whole universe. The golden...
"Are you going to spend the whole day flattering me" the Queen was angry but she tried to hide it.
"I'm sorry for putting you off in the first place" the King said and knelt. "Pretty wife, the ally I called have betrayed me and have headed to Akere to support their leader in the war against our kingdom. Could you send word to your father to come to our aid?"
"Now you need me?" the Queen cried.
"I'm sorry" the king begged.
"You are asking me to send word to my father to send an army that will help you destroy Akere and my son?" I know who you are. If you win Akere you will kill our son too but if the revise is the case Kendrick that I carried in my womb for nine months will not lay hands on his own parents. Now you want to know what I think? I think Kendrick should win you. So put me back into my cell" The Queen spoke to the king's shock.
In Akere, the twins secretly paid a visit to their parents in their huts. They all agreed to keep the twins' real identity from the army that came to support them until the war was won.
Mira came out and saw Manda carrying a basket of fruits and heading to the field. "Stop there!" she called.
"My lady?" The lady bowed.
"Where are you heading to with that?" Mira asked.
"To the field. Prince Kendrick requested that I get them for him" the lady said.
"He asked you to get them for him himself?" Mira wanted to know.
"Yes" the lady answered.
"Give that to me. Seems you have forgotten who you are. Let me remind you. You are a p********e, a thief and a killer. Stay away from Kendrick or I kill you" Mira threatened.
The Lady gave the fruits to her, bowed and went to a corner and sat to cry while Mira walked to the field with the fruits.
The wife of the leader of Akere who had been looking at the two ladies stepped close to the Lady and she wiped her tears off as she greeted her.
"My daughter's words hurt you right? But the truth is that you are special. The prince likes you and when all this is over he might take you as his future Queen" the woman said.
The Lady wiped her tears saying, "the prince will never like me. I'm just a p********e"
"Yes I agree. A p********e that has captured the heart of a Prince. Do you have a mother?" The woman asked.
"No mam" the Lady responded.
"I will be your mother" the woman said and left as tears of joy mixed with sorrow filled the Lady's eyes.
