Episode 1
Many years ago when I was just a child, my father worked in the palace as a warrior and my mother a maiden, life was a bit better. My father fought soo many wars and came back victorious. As a little girl I’ve always wanted to be part of the royal family but no! I wasn’t a princess, i was referred to as the warriors daughter, it was a pride to me…. My father was soo powerful that he served the king all his life..
One faithful day out city was invaded, it was an ambush, many lives were lost… my father took it upon himself to protect the king and his family..
He called for the other knight and they went to the war front, my mother being naive was panicking, she initially told my dad never to fight again.. but it was too late. Dad was already gone.
She took one of the queens horse, gave me a necklace and a pendant for rememberance of her incase anything happens to her,,,she pursued my father…. Before then, she had earlier informed my auntie to take care of me if peradventure she didn’t return..
Everyone in the city were trying to save their lives….
Hours later the war ended… the king ordered some men to retrieve some dead bodies in other for families to identify them before giving them a befitting burial..
Before then the king has ordered his two sons and his only daughter to leave the city to another till further notice..
My father and mother’s body were retrieved, they died, alongside with others..
It rained tears, mothers weep for their sons , wives weep for their husbands….
I was the only child that lost both parents in a day,, I didn’t know if I should weep or kill my self..
They fought for all of us, they will be honored and their names written down in tablets, their stories will be told and passed from generation to generation..these were the words of the King “King George”.
I will never forget today…the war has ended and there shall be no more war henceforth.. the queen added “Queen Helen”
You mean my parents died today leaving me alone?? I asked my aunt
Crying will not bring them back Naomi, I’ll try my best to care for you.. you have to be strong.. she said using her wash cloth to clean my tears..
That same day people who lost their lives in the battle field including my parents were given a mass burial.. my parents were buried separately..
I became my mother sisters daughter…
Months later The Queen began to recruit workers in the palace.
You should apply for it..I told my Aunt
Naomi! I’m not ready to work for the queen.. she’s too arrogant..
I’ve never seen her behave in a bad way before, why?
Your mother always tell me how controlling she is… I am not patient enough my child..
I heard the princess and prince had fled out of the city..
Yeah!! It’s like a traditional, the sons of the king cannot fight now as their still young, they need to be safe just incase their father dies they can inherit the throne..
They many stay for months, years, who knows… I just wish never to experience any war again, we’ve lost soo many lives already.
Take! Eat!! You’ll be needing your strength to do the dishes..
Months passed, and I miss my parents, my aunt tried her best to raise me right..she was there for me.. my surprise is why she never got married or even have kids..
But then I decided to ask her why she choose to remain single.
The only man I’ve ever loved left me for someone else.. I’ve not been able to love again..but, maybe someday I will..
Years passed and I grew up to be a very beautiful lady… I was praying to the spirits to give me a job in the palace..
Luckily! The spirits answered my prayers..
Naomi! The queen is recruiting again… do you want to try it out??
Why are you telling me??
I know it’s your dream to work in the palace, probably you want to see how it really looks like… who knows.. you may probably get married to the prince..
Oh! Really?
I’m just kidding Naomi, the sons of the king are already betrothed… they’re not liable to marry a person who’s not royalty. 👸 in other word they can only marry a princess..
I haven’t seen them though.. I may have seen them but I think that’s when I was still a baby
I remember my mother taking me to the palace, honestly, I cannot remember them..
Don’t you think the king and his wife are being selfish?
How??
Their children fled the city for soo many years, why is their safety more important than ours??
Naomi, they’re royalty, and we the people needs to protect them for the future..
Tomorrow is the screening, I hope you get your dream job..
I wonder why you want this job soo bad, we’re not suffering Naomi, we’re comfortable..
I know aunt.. I just want to work for them, my parents worked for them so I think it’s right I continue with their legacy..
You should get some sleep.. tomorrow is the day, may the spirit of your parents guide you..
I didn’t sleep, I kept staring at the moon and stars from my window… I couldn’t wait to get to the palace..
It was a new dawn, I woke up early to get myself prepared..
I got to the palace and met other girls above my age waiting to be employed either as a maid or a cook..
I was tensed, when the time drew closer.
The Queen stepped out in her royal apparel and began questioning us..
She got to where I was asked me some few questions which I answered correctly..
Your necklace and pendant looks familiar.. who are your parents? She asked
I told her who my parents were.
Oh!! Your mother was a noble woman, she did her job with love… I’m sorry, you were just a child when you lost them.. I’d want you to take your mothers position, but there are older women here, so I’ll consider employing you to be the cook, and cleaner also
She made us cook tasty meal in order to choose who she wants.
Two persons were evicted.. i and the rest survived eviction. I got the job.. my parents would be soo proud of me, my aunt too..
I communicated with the old staffs, they told me few things..
I think you should show them around the palace, the Queen said to the oldest cook… Mrs celina.
How king have you been here I asked her.
I’ve been working here all my life.. I know your parents…
Don’t you think you should retire and rest??
I wanted to, but the queen refused.. I know your parents Naomi, I’m sorry you lost them at a young age.. it must be really hard for you my dear….
You all will have to come back tomorrow and clean this palace.. we’ll be having some special visitors soon..
Who are the visitors?? I asked Mrs celina..
I think her children is returning after soo many years…. It will be nice to see them again… she said
I don’t think so…. You know the two princess of Deemah?? The girl they’ve been grooming to be the wives of the queens sons?? Her parents will be coming. Another added.
When will this tour be over?? I need to go back to my aunt….
Naomi, have it in mind that here is your new place now.. go arrange your stuffs.. see you tomorrow.
Episode 2
I ran home with excitement, who would have thought??? My aunt needs to hear this.
I started screaming her name from outside before going inside. I called her more than four times, aunt Maria where are you??? I called out
I’m here Naomi, she answered with a weak tone
What’s wrong?? Your voice is faint, why??
I’ve been sleeping since you left, how was it??
I got the job, she picked me cause of this pendant I am wearing, she recognized it was mums…
I’m happy for you Naomi, you can save your money and become a very wealthy woman.
Sit let me talk to you.
I sat down, crossed my legs waiting to hear what she wants to say to me, Naomi, I do not have much words to tell you, you’ve grown now, I want you to be extremely careful in the palace, you know you’ll have to sleep there most times, the palace is now your second home and I do not want to hear any complain form the king or the Queen..
Do not go there and start misbehaving…. Do not let any man get into you…
I don’t understand aunt. What do you mean?
The male workers in the palace.. they can deceive you.
The prince have the ability to take you to bed without anyone questioning them… do not be deceived… keep yourself till you get married..
I can’t have anything to with any of the prince aunt, like you said, they’re betrothed..
Anyone who has or have an affair with them is just wasting their time…
The royal family is a very strict family.
Naomi, Naomi! A voice I recognized was calling me
Who’s that?
You do not recognize his voice?? My aunt said laughing
No, I don’t..
It’s Kelvin, the man you’ll definitely end up with.
Haha, his my childhood friend aunt.. I like him no doubt, growing up with kelvin has been amazing, he still looks out for me.. I responded to her.
Kelvin walked in, gave me a hug a peck on my cheek..
I miss you Naomi, I heard you applied for the job in the palace and you’ve been given the job. Congratulations love.
Thank you Kelvin..
I applied too Naomi, I want to be close to you and still look out for you as usual, I got the job. He said with excitement..
I want to make lots of money from my pay and marry you..
Are you guys in a relationship already? Naomi you didn’t tell me you’ve been dating Kelvin.. my aunt said giving me a soft slap on my cheek.
Aunt, it’s not like that, I wanted to tell you that I’ll say yes to kelvin today when he comes
What? Kelvin expressed his shocked with happiness.
Yes Kelvin, I know how hard you’ve tried to make us comfortable, when my parents died, you were still young but you took my burden as yours.. I love you now and always. I’m soo excited we get to work in same palace..
Kelvin, do not touch Naomi till you marry her..
Deal.. I won’t cross my boundaries…
We’re going back there tomorrow, I can help you arrange your stuffs.. what do you think Naomi?
Fine!! Let’s go to my room! I said holding his hand to my room.
We arranged everything, ate together and slept in same bed together, just like we used to when we were growing up
My childhood wasn’t complete without you, I said smiling at him..
Naomi, you really meant what you said earlier? Kelvin asked
Yes. I know you love me kelvin, I love you too..
I was scared, I thought you’d say no if I ask you to be my woman…. I’ll never leave you, it’s a promise..
He kissed me for 40 seconds.. it was my first kiss with a man..
I allowed him kiss me cause I feel something for him, he stopped and continued to kiss me
I had to tell him to stop…
I wasn’t going to do anything stupid Naomi, I know you’re still a Virgin, I already promised your aunt never to pass my boundaries.. keep yourself for me…
I smiled at him and kissed him myself..
Kelvin is a very cool and intelligent person, i promised to wait for him..
He left that night by 9pm, he promised to come back so we can go to the palace together
Do you love kelvin?? My aunt asked
Yes..why??
Keep your word Naomi.. do not hurt Kelvin..I’ve always wanted him to marry you, I’m glad you made the right choice. Goodnight
We got to the palace the next day, there were lots of work to do, we swept, cooked and clean. The palace is very big that even 5 persons cannot sweep it in a day..
They were lots of abandoned rooms that were opened for cleaning..
I and the other workers went to one of the prince room and found their childhood pictures…
I cleaned them one after the other, stared at the pictures for a while and arranged them properly.
Naomi, have you met them before? Juliet asked.
I can’t remember if I have… why?
Nothing actually, I heard they are coming soon.. And soon we will know who inherits the throne after the king dies
The first son is always the heir to the throne Juliet, nothing changes it.. let’s keep cleaning
We finished cleaning and I was searching for Kelvin.. I met the queen, she asked me to join Mrs celina in the kitchen..
I thought our visitors will be coming next week, they’re in their way.. she said
I quickly joined them in cooking, hours later they arrived.
It was the two Princesses of deemah, the two wives of the kings sons.. wow! They are very beautiful.. I said
Yes they are.. that one.. Mrs celina pointing to the youngest one, is the wife of the kings youngest son, the eldest one is the wife of the first son of the queen.
This means only one thing..
What?? The kings children will arrive soon..
We served them, washed their hands..they ate and had discussions with the king and his wife
They stayed for a while and left..
Days later we got a message from the Queen…
My children will be coming back to their fathers land tomorrow.. I want everything on check
Naomi.. she called me
Yes my queen!
Make sure every room is clean and well kept, I already sent someone to make the announcement,
We are welcoming our future king (my sons and my only daughter the princess tomorrow).
There will be a huge celebration and a house welcoming party tomorrow..
No one should go home today. We have lots of work to do..
I ran towards the corridor where I met kelvin,
I’ve been looking for you kelvin.. where have you been?
I’ve been putting things in order for the king, I miss you Naomi..
Me too..
Couldn’t stop thinking about yesterday, I want you kiss you everyday.
Let’s go to one of the empty rooms, if we’re caught I’ll blame it on you. I told kelvin
We sneaked into the room and kissed for minutes…. Kelvin refused let go of me.. I was carried away that I forgot what I was supposed to do. I wanted more.
I love you Naomi.. kelvin said pushing me against the wall as he kissed me uncontrollably…
I heard my name from a distance and quickly ran out leaving kelvin…
Where have you been Naomi?? Juliet asked
I was outside… I …. I…
Don’t bother saying anything,, help do the dishes..
I kept smiling thinking of Kelvin..
We finished with the chores, I was soo tired and exhausted, we had just two hours sleep.
We woke up very early, had our bath and began to prepare different varieties of food, it was a huge welcoming party..
The king sons are grown now, I miss the youngest son, I used to prepare his favorite meal.. he always asked what it’s like to be a servant..
Why are you telling me Mrs Celina?
I’m not telling you, I am letting you know..
Know what exactly?? I asked
You’ll soon know, just get yourself prepared..
Prepared?How? I don’t understand
Have you heard of the witch doctor that sees whatever happens here??
I’ve heard about her.
She’ll be coming today…
How does that has to do with me??
I had a dream about you Naomi. I’ll tell you later
I can hear the sound of the music, the drums 🪘 and the trumpet..
Call the others Naomi,, Let’s go welcome our Prince. Including their wives.. They’re here..
Episode 3
Finally the day has come to see and know the two prince and their sister.. I wasn’t over excited cause their return made me remember the day they left, they left cause they needed to be alive, while many families lost their loved ones.
It was an hour of music, dance, the crowd were cheering, it has been soo many years without them in the kingdom. Most of us got to see their faces and what they actually look like..
The king stepped up and made his statement
“We’re gathered here today to welcome the future rulers of this kingdom, they were not lost, they were sent away when the war started.. but now they’re back and never returning back,, sitted close to them are their betrothed”” let the party begin..
I kept staring at them, they are far from what I’ve imagined so far..
The party went on for hours, I went in search for Kelvin again’. I couldn’t find him… I called his name but no response..
I was already running out from the palace to check if my aunt came when I ran into one of the prince.
Hey! Stop..He shouted.
I stopped, turned and saw him.
He walked towards me and asked what I was doing inside all alone..
I came to drink water your highness.. I said bowing down my head with respect
Lots of water are outside and your uniform looks like the one the workers are putting on..
You’re right your highness 🙇♀️ I needed to urinate, I’m sorry for lying to you
It’s fine! I understand you need to relieve yourself of the stress too… what’s your name?
NAOMI..!
I’m NATHAN..
I know you’re the kings son.
We were talking when one of the princess walked in, princess Susan.
I’ve been looking for you Nathan, you shouldn’t leave your queen sitting alone for minutes..
You’re not my queen yet Susan. Nathan said.
But soon I will be..We’re betrothed and I’ve been waiting for this day to finally see you again and be with you.. I’ve kept my promise and I’ve waited for soo long.. Susan said.
you should join them outside Naomi, you don’t Have to listen to our conversation as it is private…
I left them , went back outside and continued helping Mrs celina and others to make sure everyone eats.
The party was over… we all went back to our duty post..
Have you seen Nathan? He is the last son of the king, soo handsome. Juliet said.
I’d be soo glad if I can get to him or his brother and at least have an encounter with any of them..
Let’s arrange the tables before you girls fantasize about the prince.. you all know you can only imagine things that doesn’t come true…I said to them
We set the tables and waited for the queen to give her order.
Naomi!
Yes my Queen…
Go to the 6th room by your left and call Nathan and his Brother Henry.. tell them the table is set I’ll send someone to call the princes and the soon to be wives of my sons.
I went to his room without knocking,and found him staring at his own pictures.
You should knock before coming in Naomi, that’s disrespect.
I am sorry Prince Nathan, your mother sent for you and your brother, prince Henry..
Tell her, I’ll join them soon..
I passed his message and he was waited for like he was the next king.
I brought another meal, due to the fact that I didn’t get enough sleep, I was soo tired.
I carried the food and wanted to drop it on the table when I unintentionally stepped on princes Susan toes.
She screamed, and she slapped me.. that wasn’t enough she poured the hot water on the table meant for coffe on myhand.
Are you blind? You’re just a maid and you’re trying to hurt me? I demand an apology from you.. be careful next time, if you’re tired of the job then you can go home.. Susan said.
I’m soo sorry . I didn’t know when I steeped on you..
You shouldn’t talk to her in that manner Susan.. you have no idea what they’ve been through’ they’ve been awake trying to make all of us comfortable. Prince Henry said..
I was already in pains as I felt my skin glued to the long sleeve I wore..
Nathan was just staring at me and Susan, he didn’t say anything..
Please, someone should tell her to leave this minute. Susan said
Why do you want her to leave? Nathan asked Susan?
You slapped her and poured water on her Susan, ain’t you suppose to behave like the princess that you are? Do all the maid in your palace go through this?? No remorse?
Nathan, don’t talk to your queen like that.. the Queen said..
She’s not my queen yet mum..
Nathan, get on with it, she’s a maid and Susan have the right to correct her when she goes wrong.. Henry said
Naomi! You can leave now. Just go to your room. Change your clothes and come back they’re wet already… The King said
I went to my room and met Kelvin, he was waiting for me..
Have you been crying Naomi?? He asked.
No… I’m just tired..
Why are you soaked in water?? Who poured you water??
I explained to him what happened, he hugged me and said “ everything will be fine”.
I saw your aunt.. she was searching for you.. she extends her greetings..
I miss home.. here is like a prison, work! Work!! Work!!!
Sorry, you’ll be used to it..
I miss you Kelvin… I want to really spend some time with you alone.. I imagine so many things on my head..
Naomi, don’t imagine things.. you remember our deal??
I remember, but we can do others right?? Can we meet later this night, at the balcony? The one downstairs, no one goes there at night..I’ll meet you there.. it’s time to go now kelvin.
Kelvin left, I removed my clothes and discovered the water hot water Susan poured me damaged my skin by peeling it..
It was a bit painful, I had no herbs to treat it and I cannot tell them. I wore another sleeve to cover it up..
I went back to where the the king and his family was.. they were still eating. We were made to stand and watch them for hours…
Naomi,, the king called.
Your highness!
Aside cooking what else do you do here?
I clean too.
I’m assigning you to be Nathan’s maid.. Make sure you clean his room every morning and evening..
Juliet, you’ll clean Prince Henry’s room..I want their stay to be a wonderful one..
Minutes later the witch that oversees the future came.
She brought her stuffs and a mirror. Sat on the ground and began to pray to all the ancestors.. she asked to know the fate of the kingdom as the prince has arrived.
She kept on speaking in an unknown language, pleading to the spirits to reveal the future to her..
Something appeared in her mirror.. she looked at it privately and said
She saw a woman trying to change everything but she doesn’t know what the woman is trying to change
Did you see her face?? The king asked.
Her face wasn’t revealed.. just her body.. it is hard to detect who she is..
She turned and walked round the dinning, she looked at every one of us..
She prayed again to the spirits to reveal who will try to change the kingdom.. the same woman appeared but without a face and without a Concrete answer..
Let me go and come back in a month time.. I will appease them for them to reveal her to me..
She left..
You all can go back to your duty..
Did you notice anything Naomi? Mrs celina asked
Noo.. why?
Don’t worry.. it’s almost evening, you’ll go to clean Prince Nathan’s room.. she said smiling at me
You’re acting weird.. I told her while trying to get my stuffs for cleaning ready, I wanted it to be fast so I can meet Kelvin..
Exactly 5pm I went down to his room and knocked on his door.
He opened.
Good evening your highness..
I wasn’t expecting you too soon Naomi.. well go ahead.
I took my time to arrange the room again… I noticed he was staring at me, I tried to avoid eye contact with him..
He came closer to me, I moved backwards he kept coming close, he held my hand.
Arrgh..
He removed his hand and asked me to take off the shirt I was wearing.
I can’t.. I’m sorry.
You’re wearin two shirt, a short and long sleeve, take off the first one.. don’t be scared.
I took it off.
I noticed the way you were cleaning.. princess Susan did this to you..
I never knew the water was that hot..
Let me help you treat it..
Naomi, I’m sorry for what happened earlier today…
No, Thanks. I’ll treat it when I am done cleaning..
I insist Naomi.
No please..Thank you.
I hurriedly finished cleaning, and went to wait for kelvin..
I waited for few minutes before he came.. I smiled at him. We sneaked to a very dark place to do what we normally do..
This time I wanted something different.. I just asked him to touch me without removing my clothes.
He did, it was love as I felt every bit of his touch, I kissed him with love and passion.
I wish we were home Kelvin.. I keep loving you each day..
I’ve always loved you Naomi.. keep yourself for me..
I will.You’ll the first and last man to break me..
I will marry you Naomi… It’s a promise..
We continued kissing when we heard footsteps coming towards us
Who’s there? Who’s there? The person said
I and kelvin fled..
Episode 4
My heart was pounding, I do no want anyone to see me, I hid myself in one of the pillars, the lights were soo dim that I could barely see..
I panicked as I ran towards my room..
Naomi! Where have you been?? Juliet asked.
What are you doing in my room?? I responded with shock.
I needed to talk to you Naomi… Prince Nathan was looking for you.. I didn’t know why he was acting weird when he came to the kitchen and discovered you weren’t there.
Prince Nathan?? Looking for me? For what? I already finished cleaning his room before I stepped out..
He had issues with princess Susan.. I didn’t get to hear what they were saying that he was scolding her.
Juliet please, I really need to sleep, have you seen Mrs celina.
Yes, she’s sleeping already, allow me sleep here tonight. Ehen, how did it go? Did he talk to you while you cleaned his room??
No, why?
Prince Henry was telling me about so many things, but I really would have preferred To be Nathan’s Maid
Goodnight Juliet, I’m not in for gossip today, tomorrow is another day…
I was busy thinking about Kelvin, I flashed back to the way he touched me and imagine what would really happen if we have s*x. It would be awesome.. I slept off thinking of Kelvin.
Woke up late, rushed to freshen up before going to Clean Nathan’s room.
You’re late Naomi.
I’m sorry, I woke up late your highness.. it won’t happen again..
Where were you last night? He asked facing his window. His back was facing me and I didn’t understand why he asked such question
Naomi! Where were you last night? He stood up, sat on his chair.. and looked at me
I took a stroll outside.. I’m sorry, I never knew you’ll be needing anything, I would have stayed. Forgive me your majesty.. I bowed my head
I can need you at anytime, you’re assigned to me as my personal maid.. even if you have other things to do you should always be available.. I do not want to look for you again..
Ontop my table is the herbs I squeezed for your treatment, I do not want my room cleaned now, take the medicine and go apply it. Come back in the evening..
I was about leaving when Susan walked in again… always a coincidence..
Good morning my princess.
She ignored and said, have you taken your bath this morning? You stink Naomi. I hope you cleaned my husband’s room very well? You can leave now..
She was already leaving Susan, what is it?
I wanted to talk to you about yesterday..Susan said
Nathan. You arrived yesterday and you’ve been acting cold towards me.. you refused me from sleeping in same bed with you, my sister slept with Your brother.. they’re getting to know each other..
Nathan, please my love, I love you.. I’ve been groomed for you and I’ve been waiting for you to finally let me into your life..
Susan, you’re beautiful, elegant and smart but I need time to think about this, I really do not understand what my parents mean when they say I am already betrothed.
It’s tradition Nathan…. A king must marry a queen
But I am not a King, my brother Henry is next inline for the throne, he is the future king..
You can take over from my father as he doesn’t have a male child, we’re supposed to get married and move to my kingdom so we can rule the people together Nathan.
Susan, I’ve heard you…
Can I give you a hug?? Susan asked
Yeah…
Can I sleep in your room tonight??
Yeah, you can..
Naomi, what happend to your hand and what’s this?? Mrs celina asked
Oh! The hot water princess Susan poured on me, and prince Nathan gave me this to treat it..
Prince Nathan gave you herbs to treat this injury?? Juliet surprisingly asked
Yeah, he did, I mean, he saw it and apologized on his wife’s behalf, I wasn’t actually expecting him to do this.
Naomi!!
What?? Why are you guys shocked?? He’s just being remorseful, that’s all, he’s human right? He had sympathy on me that’s all.. I wonder why you keep making those face..
Is there anything else to do here??
No Naomi, we’re done, you just have to rest a little before going back to clean prince Nathan’s room.
I really want to visit my aunt, can I talk to the queen??
No Naomi. You just started to work here, they will ask you to rest soon, do not ask for leave.
Okay..Time is running fast, the weather is already changing, I think it’s time already to go do my personal Job
On my way to Nathan’s room for cleaning I met Prince Henry.
Hello Naomi.
Good day your highness.
Can you go clean up my room? It’s messed up,
But my prince, Juliet is the one assigned to clean your room.
You dare not question me Naomi, go clean my room. I do not care who my parents assigned to clean up my room, I choose whoever I want to tidy it.
Now go!
I’m sorry..
I went to his room and discovered his room has been sexually messed up, I couldn’t guess who he slept with, it can be his future wife of one of the maidens.
I arranged everything, changed the bed sheet and properly cleaned the room, I spent an hour plus trying to put the room in order..
I soaked the previous bed sheet..
On my way out from the room I met Juliet..
What’s going on? You’re supposed to clean Prince Nathan’s room Naomi
I know, prince Henry gave an order.. I love my job Juliet, see you later, let me go clean prince Nathan’s room
It’s fine Naomi, help me tell Nathan that dinner is served.
I got there in minutes, met Susan writing on a book and Nathan sitting on his bed playing with his hair/
I greeted them both and began to arrange the room..
Where have you been Naomi? It’s already late.
I’ve been cleaning your brothers room..
What? Why?
He requested I clean it. I’m sorry I am late again.
Don’t you dare do that without my permission, okay??
Okay..Dinner is served.. You and your wife are needed.
Susan, you can leave now, I’ll join later.. Nathan said
Let’s go together my love.. she responded
I said I’ll join you and the rest later..
I continued with what I was doing when Susan left.
Come here Naomi..
I went close to him and he dragged my ear..
The next time you’ll clean my brothers room without my order again I’ll deal with you.. do you understand??
Yeee… yes. Yes.. I understand you, im sorry
Good.. now leave..
But I’m not done cleaning your room, your highness
I said leave..are you dumb??
I carried everything and left,
Two days later I had a dream, Henry wasn’t crowned the king, Nathan became the king, I saw myself crying, I couldn’t figure out what was the cause of my tears..
I prayed to my parents to guide and lead me..
On the third day I had same dream..
I walked up to Mrs celina and please with her to tell me about her dream, she told me once that she saw me in her dreams
Naomi, there are two roads and you were confused on which path to take, you refused to take any path before I woke up..
What does it mean? I asked her.
I cannot tell you Naomi.. you have to be careful so you will not live your life in regret..
I took a deep breath and said Nathan is the next king..
How did you know Naomi? He asked me.
I saw it in my dream twice..
Your dream is correct but how will it be possible? Henry is the sole owner of the crown, he is the first seed of his parents.. it will only cause disagreement between them..
Naomi, you’re needed..Juliet said.
I am always needed, feels I am the only one living and working here. I grumbled.
I went outside and saw it was Kelvin.
The excitement on my face says it all.
Naomi, the king asked me to go home and rest for two days, I want to spend the two days with you alone please.
I’ll talk to the queen about it, I’ll just tell her my aunt is sick and I need to go home okay?? I’ll see you Tomorow..
I wrote a letter to the queen asking her to permit me to go home and care for my sick aunt..
She called me for questioning and granted my request..
I got home and told my aunt about the lie I told in other to be with Kelvin..
I’ll be back tomorrow aunt, I have lots of things to tell you.. I rushed down to Kelvin’s place.
He wasn’t expecting me too soon.
How did you do it Naomi?
It’s magic, I lied too.. I sleeping Over kelvin… it’s very hard to see you in the palace..
We spent many hours talking about old times and our last encounter when we ran out from the balcony cause we heard footsteps
We ate together… and went to bed together..
I woke up in the middle of the night, asked for cuddles, cuddles turned to soft kisses.. I wanted us to have sx but kelvin said No.. We’ll do that when we get married… I removed my clothes and his, he helped me tie my hair, kissed me on my neck as he held me soo tight, he grabbed my buttocks and felt the flowing river, I wanted more than just romance or foreplay, but his self control was 100%, Your river is still flowing and not drying soon.. he said. Can we have sx? I want to experience more with you.. I interrupted
No, Naomi, you’re still very innocent..
I love you Kelvin..
I love you too..we slept after hours of intense pleasure
At 3am Nathan went to meet Mrs celina,
Mrs celina where’s Naomi? Nathan asked
My prince, it’s midnight, you should be sleeping.
I couldn’t sleep. Where’s she? I’ve searched everywhere for her
She left to meet her sick aunt..
Who permitted her?
The Queen..
Episode 5
You mean my mother permitted her to leave Without my consent?? Nathan said.
I’m sorry, your mother gave her the permission.
I’ll just have to wait till morning before meeting my mother, you can go to sleep.
It was already morning when Nathan went to meet his mother.
Mum why did you allow her leave without informing me??
Who?? The Queen asked.
Naomi…
I do not understand Nathan, are you questioning me??
No mum, she’s my maid and I should know when she’s on break or going for a visit right??
What’s wrong with you and Naomi? The other day you confronted me and told me to tell your elder brother not to order her around, now this? I employed her here and I made her your maid.
I don’t need to seek your consent before allowing her go meet her sick aunt.
I gave her this job and I can withdraw it from her..
Who’ll clean up my room??
We have lots of maidens here in the palace, call anyone to tidy up your room.. I am getting tired of your constant complain, you should be concerned about princess susan your wife to be not some maid..
You’re right mum, I should be concerned and more worried about the princess.
A woman you kept for me to marry cause she’s royalty. What if I don’t love her??
I think you should focus more on Henry and his wife to be, after all Henry is the one taking over after dad, so why is the pressure more on me?
The pressure is on you cause you need to marry her and become the king in her fathers land… she’s your betrothed.,
Nathan, it’s tradition’ and you cannot change it, you’re royalty and princess Susan is also royalty..
I wanted to ask you, when is she leaving??
How do you mean?
When are they going back to their parents house?
When both of you start loving yourselfs, Henry and Susan’s sister Martha have been flowing together ever since.. Susan complain of how you scold her and not let her sleep in your room..
But I let her sleep there once mum.. what am I supposed to do with her??
Talk to her, make her feel wanted, make her feel loved. She’s your wife Nathan and she’s here because of you.. you just arrived and you’re trying to be difficult…
Oh wow! I’ll do as you say mum.. I’ll make princess Susan feel loved….let me talk to Mrs celina..
Mrs celina.
Yes your highness!
Do you know where Naomi stays??
Yes I do.
Take me to Naomi’s place now.
I’m sorry prince Nathan, your father wants me to go somewhere with him.. I also have to attend to your mother..
Does anyone knows where she live?? Nathan asked.
I’m not sure my prince…
How can I get to her??
Why are you soo concerned about Naomi? She just left to care for her sick aunt, she’ll be back.. you look worried
I am just trying to look out for her, I need to know when she leaves and when she returns but it’s Fine!! I’ll just wait for her till she returns tomorrow then..
Kelvin, I’ll be going to meet my aunt soon..
Why?
I haven’t been with her for some time now ,I need to just spend some time with her before I go back to the palace.
I thought we’re supposed to go together..
No kelvin, it will be suspicious.. I will go before you okay?
I’ll come see you later today..
Hours later I got to my aunt place..
Naomi, I thought you’re not coming back.
Noo, I needed to come back and help you with some stuffs, also spend some time with you before I leave.
How’s life in the palace?
Horrible..
How??
It was better at first but as soon as the king sons arrived everything changed, I was actually looking for you the day of their arrival.
I was looking for you too, how do you mean everything changed as soon as they arrived? Maria asked.
Nathan the prince is trying to frustrate me, his wife to be is always getting on my nerves and I do not know why, the last time she poured me hot water cause I stepped on her toes, it wasn’t intentional aunt.
And how is Nathan trying to frustrate you??
He’s always looking for me, scolded me cause I cleaned up his brothers room..
I don’t understand you Naomi..
Aunt look! The queen assigned to me her son Nathan as his personal maid.
Oh!! I just hope he doesn’t eat from the tree he never planted..
I don’t understand you.. you’re speaking in parables.
Naomi… I am listening to you..I hope you are very careful dealing with the royal family…
Mrs celina had a dream about me, she told me she saw two path and I was confused on which way to go.
Did you later go right or left?
I didn’t go any way, she said I stood there thinking and confused till she woke up.. I also had a dream twice where I was crying..
Is anyone in the palace trying to ask you out? Aside kelvin is there anyone you have feelings for?
Not at all.. I love kelvin and I can’t cheat on him..
Kelvin has been there for you , he grew up loving you, don’t hurt him.. he applied for a job in the palace to be close to you.
I lied to the Queen to come be with him aunt. Kelvin refused to take me to bed last night, he’s trying to keep me till he marries me, I can’t take his love for granted..
Do not rush Kelvin into taking you to bed, you have to think with your brain… s*x is not everything, kelvin has proven that to you countless times.. take it slow with him.. do not rush him.
Then, do not let anyone distract you..Remember the two prince can take to bed any woman they desire, one thing is for sure,, They cannot be with someone who is not from a royal family.. it is tradition.. don’t follow the other maidens, don’t lose your dignity for someone who’s not worth it..
Be careful Naomi.. You’ll be fine..
Kelvin came back..We stayed together for a while , I made sure every moment with him count before he left..
My stay was over and I went back to work, I left before kelvin in other for the Queen not to suspect a thing..
I got inside and went to my room to change my wears to my uniform, I finished changing, on my way to look for my colleagues, I met Mrs Celina
Naomi, how’s your aunt?
She’s fine now.. how’s everything here??
Fine, did you inform Prince Nathan you were leaving??
No, I didn’t.
Why didn’t you?
Why would I inform him? He wasn’t the one that gave me this job, I’ve been working here before he came back and the Queen was the one that assigned me to him. So the queen has the right to approve my visit or not. She’s the head just like the King.
Wow! Naomi. Nathan has been looking for you..
Prince Nathan is always looking for me…
You should go see him…
I need to first meet the Queen and tell her I am back..Thank you.
I met the Queen, she asked about ny aunt and I told her she’s getting better..
It’s fine, you can resume your duties
I went to Nathan’s room…
I knocked and he opened..
You didn’t tell me you were leaving Naomi.
Why would you leave without informing me?
I’m sorry, I needed to go and your mother permitted me.
Your aunt was sick and you didn’t tell me?? Do not leave this palace without my permission..
I respect you as the prince and I honor you, but I owe my service in this palace to your Parents,especially your mother the Queen..Inasmuch as I’ll inform you next time before leaving, I’ll still inform them..
I’m sorry your highness, it won’t happen again
My room is already cleaned you can go.. call me princess Susan..
