“What did i do to deserve this?I love him so much.
“Let’s go inside.
They went inside, the queen ordered the maids to get her something to eat, her meal was brought to her but she refused to eat, the queen has to force her to eat, she later slept off after crying so much.
The queen and chain left her chamber

“Can you just hear yourself speak, you are going to leave Morgana for that thing you called a mate.
“Don’t you dare call her a thing, she is my mate, you have to respect her .
Chain laugh at the king’s word
“Did you just say I should respect that thing??, Why should I?, she is no match compair to Morgana, she is classless.
“She is the daughter of one of the elders.
“I see, then her father needs to be punished for sending his harlot of a daughter into seducing the king.
The king was angry at his words,he held the collar of his shirt.
“You are crossing your limit chain,i have made a decision and I espect you to respect my decision.
“I have always respect all your decision but this one i won’t, Morgana is really hurt, that girl really loves you.
“She can be my concubine if she wants,i wants a strong queen, the one that can stand on her own and also satisfy me.
“And you think that b**tch can do all of that.
“Watch what you say, you loved Morgana don’t you or you think i don’t know,i see the way you looks at her and the attention you gave to her.
“My love for her has nothing to do with our discussion.
“Since you love her why don’t you have her and let me be with the woman I love.
“I see now, you love Ashley because she satisfied your sexual desire not knowing who she really is, some day when you realize her true colors it’s will be too late, you want me to have Morgana I will do just that, it’s will be an honor having a goddess as my mate and woman,i will make her the envy of all women.i will let you know that an Omega can be the best woman you can ever have,both in bed and in comfort.
“Wish you luck then,in two days time i will crown Ashley as my queen.
“Suit yourself, but just know that I won’t be attending the coronation,i have got a heart to win.
The king smirked at chain as he went out.
“He is such a fool, the almighty general chain falling for an Omega,i think something is wrong with him, let’s see who will regret his actions,i bet she can even last for five minutes on bed not to talk of an hour.
Chain went out and met Ashley by the door way,he looks at her with disgusts.
“I know your plans with those pathetic old fools of a elders, but let me tell you the same way you entered this palace you shall be Chase out that same way, enjoy the moment but it’s won’t last long, and thanks to you i can have what I have always desired.
He walked away smiling, Ashley wondered what he meant by he has got what he has always wanted, she cared less and went in to see the king
“Your majesty is everything ok.
“Everything is fine Ashley, get ready in two days time you will be crown as queen.
Ashley hugged him and kissed him smiling devishly.
“I love you my king.
“I love you more Ashley.
He carried her to his bed, she smiled knowing what he wanted at that moment.
Chapter 17 & 18 : Anger and Determination for Revenge
Two days later as the king has plan he got married to Ashley and made her his queen, the queen, Morgana and chain were absent at both the wedding and coronation, the elders and other other Noble family were the ones that attended the wedding, the queen was so furious and shattered by her son choice.
She regretted ever having a son like him,his brothers has all left the palace after their father death in search of an adventure since they have no business with the throne or politics.
Morgana wasn’t left out, she cried all day long and refused to be console by anyone.
She eventually accepted the fact that the king is no longer her and decided to move on, she was heading towards the queen Chambers to check up on her when she met with Ashley on the way.
“Hi princess or should I say Morgana, Ashley smile devishly while staring at Morgana, Morgana said nothing she wanted to walk pass her but she held her back.
“How dare you Walk out on me, maybe you are forgetting that am the queen and therefore you must respect me.
“The fact that you are now the queen doesn’t mean I should respect you, you are just a cheep slt who uses her body to enter the palace. “You b*tch, have you lost it,i will make your life a living hell in this palace, you will have no choice but to leave this palace and run away, your kind is not welcome here.
Ashley sighted the king coming towards a direction, she wanted the king to punish Morgana so she came up with an idea.
“You know what I will make the queen my slave and palace dog.
Morgana was furious at what she said, she didn’t know that the king was coming so she slap Ashley, this way what Ashley wanted she fell down on her knees crying.
“Am sorry princess,it was never my intention to to take the king away from you,he chose me and there is nothing I can do, please have mercy on me and spare my family, don’t harm them as you said you would.
Morgana was confused at her sudden behavior, she was speechless not knowing what to do, suddenly she saw the king and she froze at that spot seeing how furious his eyes were, the king came closer to her without asking what the problem was he slapped her hard on her cheeks that took her to the ground.
“How dare you lay those filty hands of yours on my queen, have you lost it Morgana.
“She said she will make mother a slave and a palace dog, she also threatened to make my life a living hell.
“She is lying your majesty i only greeted her and the next thing she began abusing me, calling me a sl*t, that I took you away from her and that she will kill my entire family,i wanted to plead with her but she slap me.
The king was more furious after hearing Ashley side of the story, he believed what Ashley told him and held Morgana’s hand causing her so much pain.
“You think you can disrespect my queen and go Scott free,i will make you fear and respect her.
She pushed Morgana on the floor, brought out his long whip and began lashing her with it mercilessly, the guards and maids could not stand the torture he is inflicting on her, a maid hurryly ran to inform the queen.
The queen came immediately she received the news and was shock at the site before her, Morgana was bleeding profusely but the king care less, he continue lashing her the more.
“Stop this son,do you want to kill her?
Morgana was crying and was very weak, she could hardly move her body .
“What has come over you,stop lashing her.
The king didn’t even looked at his mother he continue lashing Morgana without showing mercy, the queen couldn’t stand it she fell on Morgana body, the king stop after the his whip landed on his mother’s body.
“You are a devil Jerome, you are not worthy to be called my son.
The king left holding Ashley hand, Ashley kept smiling enjoying the whole show.
The queen held Morgana crying.
“Am sorry child i should have been with you, please forgive me.
Morgana was too weak to reply her back, she fainted while the queen ordered the guards to take her to her room.
The doctor came and attended to her, she was still unconscious, chain was out of the empire attending to an incident that occurred so he wasn’t aware of what was happening.
Morgana finally opened her eyes, the queen was excited seeing her opened her eyes
“Am glad you are awake,are you hungry should?? I get you something to eat?.
Morgana said nothing, she just kept quiet crying silently.
“Mother please i want to be left alone,i need space please mother.
The queen felt her pain, she ordered everyone out covered her with the bedsheets, she kissed her on her forehead and left her room.
Chain got back very late, he was so tired from the day stress, it’s was raining heavily outside, from his room chain sighted a figure outside the castle,he wondered who it’s was, from the looks of it it was a woman,he held his sword in his hands and went down heading towards the gate.
“Who is there, reveal yourself this instance.
He got no response and this made him even more pissed.
“You better reveal yourself or you pay the concequences ,” chain threatens,his men were also behind him fully armed.
He opened the gate and the figure fell at him,he held her and removed her veil.
“My lady”, he exclaimed.
“What are you doing here at this hour.
