Chapter 27 THE SLAVE PRINCESS
Chapter 27
“The Princess condition was serious then and Queen Cleopatra thought she was going to die so she decided to leave her own child and brought my child to be introduced as Princess Bonya in your Kingdom," said the woman as she groaned because of the extreme longing for her real daughter.
“Queen Cleopatra is really heartless!” the king ranted as he looked around and seemed to be looking for someone.
“Where is the Princess? I want to see her," asked the king who was obviously longing for his daughter.
“Your Majesty, just a moment and I will introduce her to you," the woman replied as she hurriedly left to go to the real Princess.
After a few minutes.
A beautiful young lady accompanied by the slave appeared in front of King Zuper’s eyes.
“Your Majesty, she is the real Princess Bonya," the slave introduced while holding the young lady’s hands.
“Princess Bonya!” the King sniveled while tears were streaming down his eyes.
“I told her the truth a few days after a soldier came here to investigate Queen Cleopatra," said the woman as she remained holding the hands of the howling Princess.
“Your Majesty," the young lady mewled as she approached the King and embraced him.
The King hugged her too.
“Princess Bonya, forgive me for not protecting you against your Queen mother," said the King while also reciprocating a hug to the Princess.
The Princess did not utter a word but suddenly burst into tears and sobbed.
“Forgive me but I want to see her red birthmark on her back as a sign that she is indeed the real Princess," said the King in his reassuring tone.
The servant immediately opened the young lady’s back and the King saw that the Princess had a red birthmark on her back.
“You are indeed the real Princess Bonya and there is no doubt because of your red birthmark," the King exclaimed.
"Your Majesty, I never thought even in my dream that I was a Princess," Princess Bonya burst into tears because of the sheer happiness she felt.
"I want to indulge you in the life you have never tasted as a Princess so come with me when I return to our Palace," the King suggested to his Princess.
“Your Majesty, she is Darla, the real mother of Sahara," said the young lady while pointing at the slave.
“Darla, if you want to see your daughter come with me. I don’t know what Queen Bonya’s reaction will be if she finds out her true identity and especially if she finds out that her mother is just a slave," the King sighed.
"Hopefully my daughter will learn to accept me and she will recognize me as her mother," Darla wept.
King Zuper took Darla and Princess Bonya to the Kingdom of Gazu but as they arrived a soldier approached them to convey the bad news about Queen Bonya.
After King Zuper heard the bad news, he sent a soldier to fetch Queen Cleopatra and Queen Sasa to take them to the Gazu Kingdom.
He hid Darla and the real Princess Bonya in a safe place.
King Zuper immediately went to King Gab to find out the news about Queen Bonya.
A large gathering was agreed upon by the two Kings and Queen Bonya was ushered out of her room.
“Where will you take me? Release me!” Queen Bonya swaggered while trying to get away from those who were holding her.
The soldier remained silent and took Queen Bonya to the courtyard of the Palace.
‘’Why there are so many People in the courtyard of the Palace?” Queen Bonya asked in astonishment.
“Because there is a big revelation to be announced today," the soldier responded while holding the Queen's hands tightly.
Queen Bonya noticed that the soldier took a tie and held her hands.
“Let go my hands!’’ Queen Bonya angrily ordered.
The soldier took her hands and tied them tightly behind her back.
“Let me go!’’ Queen Bonya screamed as she stiffened and pulled her hands away.
The soldiers carried her away in front of a crowd and Queen Bonya felt ashamed of herself she could not bear to be seen by the Palace staff in such a miserable manner.
Queen Bonya saw that she was surrounded by many people, she was so embarassed, she rolled her eyes and she saw King Gab and King Zuper walking together towards her direction.
“Your Majesty, help me!" she meant to raise her voice so that King Zuper would notice her.
Queen Bonya saw King Zuper glance at her but he didn’t seem surprised to see her pitiful appearance.
“Your Majesy, release me here! Please defend me from them," Queen Bonya requested to King Zuper in a pleading voice.
“Forgive me Bonya but I have no right to interfere with King Gab’s order within his Kingdom," King Zuper replied to Queen Bonya.
Queen Bonya noticed that she was no longer called Queen or Princess by King Zuper.
“What does this mean? Am I stripped of my name and rights as a Queen or Princess in the Palace?’’ Queen Bonya wondered.
Queen Bonya suddenly felt nervous.
“ Is this what the soldier said earlier as a big revelation?” Queen Bonya mumbled to herself with a doubt.
Queen Bonya’s heart was beating fast so she rolled her eyes to look for Queen Cleopatra and ask for help from her Queen mother but she couldn’t find her.
‘’Because of the felony that Queen Bonya has committed, she will be punished by whipping her twenty times," King Gab announced in a loud voice.
Queen Bonya panicked and struggled to escape because she was afraid of the punishment that would be imposed to her.
She was held tightly by the soldiers and was positioned in the middle and they were surrounded by many people in the palace.
Two soldiers gripped her arms tightly and the third soldier held a whip and waited for the King’s command.
“Whip her!” King Gab commanded the soldier with an angry voice.
The soldier raised the whip and slapped Queen Bonya hard on her back.
“Ahhgh!’’ Queen Bonya cried out loud because of the pain she felt.
Queen Purity felt pity as she stared at Bonya but she could do nothing and she also wanted Bonya to learned a lesson.
‘’ Whip her again!” King Gab growled in anger.
‘’Ahhgh!” Queen Bonya cried out in pain.
King Zuper closes his eyes and seems to feel sorry for Queen Bonya.
King Gab signals the soldier to whip Queen Bonya again for the third time.
“Ahhgh!” Queen Bonya let out a louder scream due to the pain she felt.
Queen Sasa and Queen Cleopatra suddenly appeared.
Queen Cleopatra was shocked as she saw Queen Bonya so she immediately approached her.
“Why are you punishing Queen Bonya?’’ asked Queen Cleopatra as she hugged Queen Bonya tightly.
‘’Stop it! Such a sever punishment should not be imposed to her because she is a Queen!" Queen Cleopatra said angrily as she tried to block the soldier who was holding a whip.
“King Zuper, why are you letting the Queen be punished with such a violent punishment?” Queen Cleopatra angrily asked.
‘’Bonya is pathetic because you raised her as bad as you!” King Zuper replied with anger in his tone.
“You taught her evil, so she grew up accustomed to evil deeds!” King Zuper scolded Queen Cleopatra.
Queen Cleopatra could not answer and she felt as if something was blocking her throat.
“What are your basis and why did you say these words to me?” asked Queen Cleopatra while being suspicious of the King's actions.
“I know all the foolishness you did, you were the one who ordered to drown Princess Purity at the man made lake and you threw the blame to Sanya’s father!" King Zuper blushed in anger.
“You also ordered Heidi to poison Queen Purity and you heaped the blame to slave Sanya!" he shouted at Queen Cleopatra as he shot her a sharp stare.
“You ordered Princess Bonya to poisoned herself to accused Heidi so that you would not be exposed for your stupidity, you are a worst wicked Queen!’’ King Zuper bit his lip in frustration with the Queen.
“Your Majesty, everything you said is baseless and untrue!" Queen Cleopatra groaned while defending herself.
Heidi suddenly appeared.
“Everything King Zuper said was true!" Heidi announced in a loud voice.
People of the Palace were confused by what they heard and were shocked.
‘’You threatened me to kill my whole family so I would admit that I was the one who planned the poisoning of Queen Purity!"
Heidi revealed as he glared at Queen Cleopatra.
Queen Cleopatra was silent for a moment and was obviously embarrassed.
“ You even managed to leave your own daughter because of your greed for power!’’ The King’s eyes glazed over with rage.
Queen Cleopatra’s face suddenly turned pale at what she heard.
‘’Your Majesty, do not speak nonsense and without sufficient basis," Queen Cleopatra responded with a blushing face.
‘’Why did you let our Princess live as a slave?’’ King Zuper glowered.
‘’Your Majesty, what are you saying? I don’t understand you?’’ said Queen Cleopatra who was obviously skeptical of the words spoken by the King.
“Don’t pretend because I already know the whole truth!" said the King in a raspy voice.
Queen Bonya was nervous at what she heard and very confused.
“What does this mean?’’ Queen Bonya asked herself while writhing in back pain.
Darla and the real Princess Bonya suddenly appeared in front of them.
Queen Cleopatra’s eyes widened and even Queen Bonya was surprised as well.
‘’Darla why are you here?’’ Queen Cleopatra asked confused and slightly scared.
“Queen Cleopatra, give me back my real daughter," Darla pleaded as she held the real Princess in her hand.
Queen Cleopatra was speechless as she focused her gaze on Darla’s companion.
Queen Bonya was stunned by what she saw and she felt her heart beat faster.
‘’Queen Cleopatra, don’t you know her anymore? She is Princess Bonya the child you thought was going to die due to serious illness," Darla introduced Princess Bonya to Queen Cleopatra.
Queen Cleopatra’s face suddenly turned red and she was sweating.
Her hands trembled and she immediately grabbed the Princess arm.
‘’Princess Bonya, forgive me," said Queen Cleopatra who suddenly knelt down as she caressed the Princess’s hands.
‘’Forgive me because I was carried away by so much greed for power, I thought then that you were going to die so I took Darla’s daughter to pretend to be you, in your father's Kingdom so I could carry out my plans," confessed Queen Cleopatra as she remained on her knees.
“ What does this mean?’’ Queen Bonya interrogated after hearing what Queen Cleopatra said to the lady.
Darla approached Queen Bonya.
‘’My daughter," Darla said to Queen Bonya as she caressed Queen Bonya’s tied hands behind her back.
“Hey slave don’t touch me!’’ Queen Bonya shrugged.
‘’Sahara, don’t you remember me? I am your real mother," Darla introduced herself to Queen Bonya.
‘’What does this mean? I am a child of a slave!" Queen Bonya howled.
‘’Get out of my sight! My mother is a Queen and not a slave!’’ she scoffed.
Queen Cleopatra let go of the Princess’s hand and turned her gazed to Queen Bonya.
‘’I’m sorry Bonya, I mean Sahara but you’re not the real Princess Bonya," Queen Cleopatra revealed as her tears flowed unceasingly.
‘’This is a big lie!’’ Sahara screamed as tears streamed down her cheeks.
‘’I thought I was a Princess but I turned out to be a slave," she sobbed.
Tears are flowing in her eyes.
"I am a slave!"
‘’I thought I was Princess Bonya but I turned out to be Sahara who was just a slave, I can't accept it!" she groaned.
‘’I am a slave Princess!’’ Sahara said incredulously.Download Novelah App
