The Kingdom of Maghada and Colchis were headed by two Kings. King Frederick and a relative of his, King Hammurabi. Though the two kingdoms were related by blood. There was no mutuality of any sort. The king of Maghada, King Frederick. Always felt the King of Colchis had despision for his regality. But he was just using this to cover up his confined jealousy for the more successful state of The Kingdom of Colchis. Frederick's Ego grew and He decided to attack and take over Colchis. The attack was a surprise to Colchis and on that fateful day, Many great men of Colchis fell by the blade of the great men of Maghada. The King and queen were not left out of the heart wrenching slaughter. Everyone else that survived the conflict were taking as slaves into Maghada, leaving their land in ruffles.. Days turned into weeks, Weeks into months.. Months to years, and years to three decades. And the tales of King Frederick and his Relative was passed from the old generation to the new ones. It remained the classic story in the Empire. It has been thirty years since King's Frederick take over and the people of Colchis..or perhaps what was left of them, were still slaves working out their lives for him. The People of Colchis had completely loose hope on any way of escaping slavery. Many of them had passed away and the new generations had take over the jobs mostly. Ad they had little or no knowledge about the tales of King Frederick. Three of the old slaves, who were once princes of Colchis managed to escape slavery alongside some courageous slaves. They went into hiding and ameliorated. It took them years to gather up enough strength to ambush and attack Maghada. King Frederick fell alongside his Empire and the princes took back what was lost. The princes of Colchis brought up King Frederick's family and slaughtered them all. The army cheered and their noise Reverberated throughout the Empire. The Eldest Son of Colchis was about to give a speech to their well deserved victory when some of his men came up dragging a young lady. "My Lord, This their princess. We found her hiding in one of the rooms. What should we do with her" the men dropped her in front of the Princes. " we'll just do the same thing that was done to my little sister!" The youngest Prince pulled his sword instantly to slay her. "Wait, we can't kill her now. " The eldest Son stopped him. The youngest Prince pulled back. His eye had quickly turned tormented and he had to walk away from the scene. " I will not kill you yet..ill make you suff.." "Where is my Father, what have you done to everyone you dimwits!" The princess Curt words came. The eldest son was spooked for a moment, He was shocked at her audacity to question his Regality. His brow arched and he sighed. He walked over to her and tilted her chin up, with his humongous and painful hands. "You will suffer in folds what your father did to us!"
Chapter 1:
Boudica, The eldest son of the Colchis. Walked into the palace of The slain king Frederick. He stared around at the well decorated Palace. The air of the palace interior was filled with fragance from expensive perfumes and sprays.
The fabrications and every single vase and tables in the palace hall seemed imported. It was the first time Boudica would step his feet in King Frederick's Palace. All these was his now..
He arched his eyebrow and took a deep sigh.
Boudica walked to the throne and stared at it for a while. He summoned courage and climbed the staircase slowly.
He reached the throne and stared at it again. "Father.." Boudica Remembered the little time he spent with his father again. He sank in the throne and stared around. The throne felt obnoxious.
"I see you're testing out your new seat" The second son walked in. "Louis. How are you doing my dear brother" Boudica smiled at him.
" We've done everything you asked. The men are cleaning up everything else and she has been kept in one of cells" Louis said.
"Good. I'll address my new people tommorow. But first I need to find someone who would help announce this to the people. I'm guessing you killed their town criers already.." Louis nodded in affirmation
Boudica smirked. "You all did a great job today. Help me pass the message to the people. I'll address them tomorrow"
""Alright brother. I'll do as you say. But, you haven't forgotten our conversation before we did this right?"
"Of course I haven't forgotten silly. Let's do what's important first. We'll resolve everything else later" Boudica said curtly.
Louis bowed and left.
"This seat is so uncomfortable" Boudica grumbled.
Aurora fell unconscious as she was been dragged into her cell. They yanked her in and chained her to wall. One of the men tilted her chin and spat on her face. They all let out a reverberating laughter.
"Wait..is she dead?" One of the men nudged her.
"Who cares!" They all bursted out laughing again. The men exited the cell, locked it up and left.
Many hours passed and Aurora was still in her dream world. She dreamt of her father and family. She saw all of them eating in a big table and some hefty men holding Daggers and blades walked in and killed all of them.
Aurora woke with a yell and stared around lost. "Where..where am I?" she continued staring. The memory of what happened all rushed into her memory at once causing her to scream out.
"father..father!" Aurora tried to stand up. It was then she realized she was chained to the wall. "You murderers!. Release me right now!. Right now!" Her voice echoed through the cells and no reply came.
The cells used to be filled with the People of Colchis but now, it has all been emptied. Aurora Didn't stop yelling and her screams soon reached some men who were passing by.
Three men walked in and walked up to her cell. " You shouldn't scream. It will do you no good.." one of the men said to her.
"Let me go you dim wits. I am Aurora, the princess of Maghada and you peasants have no audacity here. How dare you put me in chains and confine me!?" Aurora continued pulling herself from the chains and they only hurt the more she pull.
"you are only reaping a fruit your father planted. I really hope my Lord deals with you very.. " The Man paused as a figure appeared.
Boudica Fearful face walked into the Cell room. With just a nod, The men all left instantly without uttering another word.
Aurora stopped screaming the instance he walked in. She stared at his eyes that semmignly were filled with rage. Her heart was pounding now as he drew closer to the door.
He pulled up a key and unlocked the door..
Boudica walked and approached her. His monster-like body stopped in front of her and he bent slowly. Aurora could feel her heart fly out of her heart now.
He grabbed her Chin and tilted it up. "You have no right to make a single noise in my Palace" His masculine voice came. Aurora mustered courage and freed her chin from her grasp.
"This is not and will never be your palace. You are nothing but a slave and a thief who came to steal what does not belong to you!" She said bluntly.Boudica grabbed her by the neck and pinned her to the wall.
"Your father killed my father, mother and three of my sisters. He did not stop there, He killed hundred of innocent people too"
" I have chosen not to kill you so I'll not forget about what happened easily. You'll suffer so much that you'll pray for death but sadly death will not come until I say so!"
Aurora gasped for air and held his strong hands as they clinged to her neck firmly and tightly. "You have not started suffering yet. I'll make you my sex slave and slaves do to you what you what your father did to our women. You'll suffer so much pain" Boudica finally let go of Aurora and she fell with a great thud.
She laid on the floor trying to get back her breathe. Her eyes had turned tormented and tears burned in them
She slowly regained herself and stared around. He had left and the cell had been locked again. Aurora managed to take her seat again and rested her back on the wall.
Tears rolled down her eyes as she thought off the ill-treatment she just got from the new king. Noises were soon heard outside. The man seemed to be partying and celebrating their defeat over her father's land.
"you have your victory over my father today you monster..but I'll revenge and take back the throne from you no matter what it takes. I promise you this with my life" Aurora broke down in tears.
