A Mistake Child...

**

Ever since Anne heard the death of Queen Ariadne, she was devastated and broken. She became the ghost of her own body. For days, Anne refused food and water, her husband Vidor, was worried about her condition and he saw no hope of improvement.

The physician who was treating her was a local one and she said his wife's health was at risk, a better healer was recommended to continue with her treatment.

Vidor used all his savings to get her a new physician, who gave Anne some herbs and therapy session she could. At last, the Emperor sent a bag of money to him, through one of his soldier. Also, he discharged Vidor's his duty till his wife recover from her illness.

This was a great relieved on his side. Now, Vidor could stay at home with his wife. The physician continue with her treatment and some improvement began to surfaced.

With time, Anne started eating and drinking again like a normal being. She could take her bath on her own, though she was yet to start talking. Vidor kept on praying that she recovers completely.

Sometimes , he told her some of the stories of their love with the hope that if she listen to them, it might interest her to say something. When Vidor disclosed to Anne about the news that the pathologist brought to the kingdom. Her face brightened immediately and the following day, she started talking again. Vidor was glad that everything was finally going back to normal. His wife was fine , even her mistress wad going to be back on feet if the witch starts her treatment.

"My love, where are you going to?" Vidor asked his wife who sat down in front of a mirror combing her hair.

"To the palace, Vidor" she said, rubbing her face in admiration.

"Who invited you there? Is there a ball going on in the palace?" He kept on asking questions like he didn't Know his wife used to work in the palace for Queen Ariadne.

"The witch is going to commence her treatment on my lady today, I want to be right at her feet when she wakes up"

"That's sweet of you but I can't let you go. Am sorry" he said.

"Why?" She frowned.

"You are not strong enough to go to the palace alone. Stay at home and rest for a few days."

"Who said am going alone?" She stood up from her seat and walked to where her husband was standing. Anne laid on his body gently and started sobbing softly.

"I want to see Queen Ariadne, please let me go to her Vidor"

He already understood this body language of his wife. Anytime she needed something from him, Anne will pretend to cry and make sure he give to her demand. Vidor was going to take her to the palace today no matter what, he had no choice. His wife just recovered. Sending her back to that state was what he could never imagined.

"fine , you won at last" I will take you to the palace after a breakfast he said.

"Yes…yes…. I love you Vidor" she kissed him gently on his cheeks. To her, Vidor was the best gift the creator had ever given. He understood and care for her more than he does for him self. Anne wished that Queen Ariadne gets to be loved by the Emperor.

"Mother Princess" Morgana shouted. She ran all the way from the gate to the dinning room deliver this message.

"What is it Morgana? please take a break" she had her step daughter hand and gave a little pat.

"Queen Valeria is back with the witch. I saw them coming" the princess said.

"Let the gods be praise" mother lifted both hands in appreciation. Her face brightened and smiles occupied the corner of her lips. "Please inform Sargon of this new development".

"Didn't you hear what the Queen mother?" Princess Morgana asked one of the maids who stood there enjoying their conservation. At once, the maids ran towards the exit door in confusion with her scarf dropped on the floor. She looked back and saw that the princess was watching her. She continued with the run again.

"Silly maid" princess Morgana uttered.

"She is scared of you, that's why" mother said.

"Am not the Emperor nor the Empress, why will she fear me mother?"

Queen Aslaug didn't reply. Morgana was just like her daughter, who died several years ago. The way she talked and smiled were the same that's why she loved her more. Despite, not being her daughter, princess Morgana loved and respected her step mother more any one in this World.

Princess Morgana was the step sister to Emperor Sargon. Her mother, Queen Texas was the last wife of the late king of Akkad. She used to live in the palace until one day, she angered the Emperor with her bad mouth by calling him a mistake child. That day was really fortunate for her because he only asked her to leave the palace and go stay with Grandma.

She was asked to take care of her until she get better again. only then, will she be able to return to the palace again. Queen Texas wasn't happy with the way , Sargon punished her but she had no choice because no one goes again the king's command.

Princess Morgana and her brothers decided to stay back and serve the throne. The two sons of queen joined the army in order to win the emperor's trust and of course, to restore honor back to their names again. There, he made one of them, the chief commander of his army.
