LOVE AT FIRST BITE

Love at first bite Tagged as an adulterous woman, Branded as a slut, Stripped of her heirloom, Bereaved of her child.. Sapphire felt the earth repelled her existence, people laughed, mocked and ridiculed her "A one time slut"They sang Alone between the heavens and the embers,All that Revolved when she had a Bite Of The Notorious Lord!!!!!... "Take me with you" With a cynical laugh he asked "Why should I?" "Milord, I can be of help to you, you have no child" she gathered courage to say as she watched the look in his eyes change for a brief second before he narrowed his eyes at her. "Woman you are in no position to bargain with me, go home" his reply was curt "Home! She scoffed "I've no home, No family waiting for me"Sapphire lips quivered as she spoke, she fought the tears that threatened to roll down her eyes, she had to be strong for her son.. She was in a sorry shape, she had taken a ferocious whip to her back and her skin had been shredded into bloody fibres, her legs and the bottom of her feet had also taken a beating as blood dripped from the deep gash on her right leg . He clasped his hands behind his back "I feel offended woman, are you so desperate to climb to the top" Sapphire could not argue with his conclusion, she needed his protection for her son's future, even though for a temporary abode. She had made up her mind. "My apologies milord----" she began "But if worth it, I'll use every fiber in my body to protect my son". Lord Typhon wasn't certain how to proceed, in truth he was astonished that she would turn to him for protection. Didn't the daft woman realize what she was getting herself into? He decided to enlighten her. "You won't survive for so long even with my protection, if words got out not only you would pay the price even your son will be tinted, even the Esporio's family can't protect him" She attempted a smile and said "I have thought of all the possibilities that could happen and I'll use it as an advantage to climb to the top with your help milord" This craze woman wasn't embracing reality, he looked at her eyes which held emptiness, death, she wasn't far from it.. her resilience preyed him to lend a digit, he was a man of reasons and she gave him one. After a moments thought, Lord Typhon finally considered her request "It'll be thrilling to see that resilience of yours been trampled to the ground Woman...." She gave him a reason..... The love of a MOTHER!!!!...

"Milady it's time"Ancila, the leader of the peasant called out as she coaxed her to enter by giving her a gentle tap between her shoulder blades.

Sapphire held unto her child tightly encroached in between her bosom, she turned around with a smile 

"One more minute Ancila, young sire volt is half asleep"

"But milady, keeping the court waiting could attract much more punishment "

Sapphire nodded in agreement as she softly caressed the sleeping child, earlier in the day, an envoy from the king summoned her to the court room, through reliable sources Sapphire knew that the king of 'Creedom' had something on his sleeves and she was his pawn.

King Kai was in the habit of taking what he wanted when he wanted it. His reputation for lechery was well known. It was unusual for him to seduce the willing and unwilling wives and mistresses of his barons and then the morning after, boast of his conquest.

"Shall we?"

Ancila followed lady sapphire into the great court as a guard rushed ahead to the tall door made of oak timbers and thrust it open. Sapphire thanked him as she walked past, but she came to a quick stop on the threshold, it was so dark inside, she couldn't see her way

As her eyes adjusted to the darkness she made a room with at least fifty barons, viscounts and marquess with his majesty King Kai the fifth.

"Greetings to your majesty, the supreme being of Creedom and all through out the land"Lady Sapphire bowed and then knelt before him.

The room was immediately lit up as it boasted two fire places one on each end .

"Lady sapphire arise"King Kai motioned for her to stand .

His highness wore scarlet robes, identical to the color of wines he spilled on the white cloth of the side stool when he slammed the goblet down and stood 

King Kai was not a handsome man, he was of average size with a protruding stomach, but to sapphire she believed him to be a ferocious soul after all he raised her as his own

"My condolences I couldn't make it to sire volts celebration" The king spoke, he picked up his goblet and took a long swallow, wine dripped into his beard and he used the back of his arm to wipe his chin as he sat.

Sapphire was no fool, that wasn't the reason she was summoned in here, she simply looked at him and waited for him to explain the purpose of the meeting 

The Royal Viscounts broke the silence 

"Lady sapphire, your presence was summoned by the court cause of treacherous rumors that seemed to be surfacing, the court has considered and decided before judgment you would be given a chance to clarify the issue before punishment"

Sapphire knew better than to ask him who was behind all this atrocity as she searched the room and when she happened to look to her right, her breathe caught in her throat and she nearly lost her balance. Baron Albert, her husband and young sire volt father stood, looking venomously at her as she met his gaze.

"There seems to be some confusion here" she began "as I'm unaware of these rumors"

"Lies" someone from the crowd shouted.

She turned her attention to the king

"Your majesty if I may ask, are you aware of all this misleading rumors"

King Kai rubbed his chin"Do you mean the Atrocious deeds sire Albert committed secretly with you and your secret romantic affair "

Frowning she asked"I seemed to be lost your majesty " her fingers brushed across the gold medallion her son wore on a chain around his neck. It has been fashioned from a coin and bore the likeness of the kingdom crest

"This is mockery, A Mockery!"

Another sudden shout roared 

"I believe you are borrowing trouble, you mean to say you cannot remember your abominable acts my dear"

It was once said the king took a sudden liking towards Lady sapphire as she grew but all that was gone as she became a lady.

King Kai was just as outraged by her attitude and he looked like he wanted to strike her but she held her ground and budged not one inch

"Since you refuse to claim your sins and plead for mercy, Lady Sapphire your sins are ADULTERY!!!!!!"

The damning silence that followed the accusation lasted only as long as it took for everyone in the room to draw gasping breath. Then the crowd erupted into bursts of anger and outrage. Within minutes sides were taken for or against the poor woman 

ADULTERY is a sin punishable by death!!!

I hope you guys find it interesting...
