24 Twenty (2/2)

”The thunder strikes and the sun smiling at me, I hope am I not going crazy” I laughed nervously, rubbing the back of my neck.

”You aren't going crazy my sugarcrush” he smiled knowingly at me, looking at the sky while his brows knitted in worries.

”What happened to made him lose control?” I heard Zeke mumbled as I wanted to ask him what he meant, he tugged my hand abruptly making me stumbled on my steps.

”Let's go quickly,” he said hurriedly as his voice lace with fear.

We walked through many corridors before we stopped at a big mahogany door which had a blazing fire craved on it. I stared at the design in perspectively trying to understand what the blazing fire that surrounded the wolf head meant.

”Enter” I heard his voice commanded on the other side. The pain in my heart ease as if it wasn't there. I was nervous to enter yet excited to see him. I didn't know what was wrong with me, I tended to lose my common sense which was not common whenever I was around him.

The door is as opened widely as my gaze found him, it was like everything stopped working. My breath hitched as I took in his Adonis's face. I couldn't get enough of it even though I met him last night. His blue eyes swirled with emotions that were too suffocating for my beating heart. He stood from his seat and strode to me quickly yet slowly, I was sure that he could hear how he was affecting me. He pulled me in a tight hug as he sniffed my hair and sighed in content, mumbling how he missed me. I giggled lightly when he bit me softly at the crook of my neck.

”Sorry to interrupt you lovebirds but we need to see the Queen” I heard a teasing man voice in the room which made me raised my head abruptly in shocked seeing a big man behind him.

I didn't notice anyone inside, all my focus were on Zaccheus that I'd forget about everyone even Zeke.

I hid my flaming face on his perfect chest embarrassingly.

He took a step back which made me raised my head as he touched my cheeks softly before he pecked my forehead.

”I want to introduce you to someone” his gaze never left mine as he smiled, showing his prominent dimples. I nearly drool at his perfect face.

”Okay” I nodded slowly while he held my tiny hand in his big hand which engulfed it.

”Awwwwwn” I didn't know where this sound came from.

The man stepped forward, smiling at me while his eyes gave nothing only knowledge, wisdom and experience.

”I'm Alec knight, the decedent of King Solomon” he bowed his head a little while I stared at him dumbfounded because I didn't understand what was happening.

A descendant of King is bowing to you, my common sense filled me in while my eyes widen in horror.

A descendant bowing!

Holy amino of protein!

I crouched on the floor, with my head down, ”it is an honour meeting a descendant of the King. This poor ser...” my rambling were interrupted as Zaccheus pulled me up.

”You don't bow to anyone because everyone would bow to you dear, ” Zaccheus said softly as he glared at the man heatedly and the man mouth twitched.

”He's a...” I tried to defend my actions but the booming sounds of someone or people laughter made me scout closer to Zaccheus for protection. When the man noticed my movement, his eyes twinkled with understanding.

”I'm sorry for their inappropriate behaviour my Queen” the man pointed to his side while bowing his head again.

I followed his pointed fingers and saw three identical beings in cloaks, their eyes were hidden behind the hoods.

They moved forward simultaneously at a normal pace when they were a foot away from me, they bowed and said in unison, ”Queen”.

I didn't understand a thing that was happening. It was impossible for me to be a queen! Talk less of a lady in waiting.

”Time, Fate and Destiny are at your service,” they said together as their glowing colourful eyes revealed behind the hood.
