The yummy Prince

Kin returned to the castle after the whole thing quite late. Rashid probed his about what happened and Kin explained everything to him, lying about the part of him creating a duplicate.

Rashid heard what Kin told him and dismissed him.

After a while one of Rashid's son came to pay him a visit and Kin went to his room.

Majeed, Rashid's first son sat down in front of his father and were both drinking a bottle of wine.

"What did you want to talk about?" Rashid asked.

"Father I think it's time we make a choice and choose a side." Majeed said

"It's getting too dangerous and things are getting more harder for us. We are basically cut off from the world and it's only a matter of time before we are swept away by the storm" Majeed said.

"You're right son, we need to choose a side, but it's just..." Rashid paused for a while.

"What's going on father Majeed inquired

It's nothing," Rashid said.

"I'm going to choose a side, just give me one more month, after that I'll pick a side." Rashid said.

"But father, Bintan doesn't have one month, it's only a matter of time before..."

"I know dammit, Rashid replied, we are on the brink of famine and there is a chance life will become more unbearable, but I just need more time, a month... That's all I need" Rashid said

"Alright father, a month" Majeed said as he left.

****

The next day came and Kin had resumed back to his post. He almost didn't want to resume back to tend to Jamila's every need but he couldn't just give Rashid a reason to behead him.

Kin got to the front of Jamila's room and knocked.

"Come in" a voice said from inside and Kin walked in.

"Oh Ashin, you're here" Jamila said

Jamila was already dressed and was dancing around her room joyously.

"She seems in a good mood this morning, I wonder if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Knowing her it's probably very bad." Kin thought

"Good morning Lady Jamila, hope you had a good rest?" Kin said.

"Oh yes I did... Jamila replied. Won't you ask me why I'm so happy?" She asked.

"Oh, why are you happy Kin?" asked knowing he would probably regret it.

"Well guess", Jamila replied.

"Instant regret", Kin muttered.

"Uhmm you're finally leaving the castle" Kin said.

"No, unfortunately, father still doesn't want me leaving".

"Oh, then today is you birthday", Kin said.

"No, Ashin, you are quite bad at guessing" Jamila said

"Ofcourse I am," Kin said under his breath.

"So, what's the occasion?" Kin asked

"My friends are coming over to spend the day, and they are also sleeping over."

"What!! Kin said in shock, now I'm going to be spending the whole day with the devil and her demon generals. How is this something to rejoice over?" Kin thought in his head.

"What, why", Jamila asked noticing his shock.

"Oh, nothing I just didn't realise What you said earlier."

"So when are they coming?" Kin said.

By noon Jamila asked.

"Great I only have few hours of escape Kin thought. It would be around the evening before they realize I'm gone". Kin thought his escape plan was flawless.

"I will be needing you for the whole planning, nothing must go wrong". Jamila said.

"Planning? Are you throwing them a party."

"No, but I need to plan for everything so we won't get bored. Everything must be perfect. Let go Ashin.. Aren't you excited?" Jamila asked as if Kin was one of her friends.

"Yay! Lucky me more girls to spend the whole day with". Even his perverted nature felt dealing with girls like Jamila was a arduous task.

Jamila walked out of the room and Kin reluctantly follow, they spent their time organizing games and talking about how excited she was. She kept on speaking about the new girls they brought and how one of the was like a cute innocent doll. That was the only part Kin was interested in, the rest was something he would rather not hear.

"I think, I should stick around for the doll she was talking about, maybe the girl would be worth it".

Kin had known Jamila, since he was four and she was eight. Her father had brought her to the palace alot before things went sour between her family and the royal family. Everytime Jamila saw Kin, she always bullied him calling him a piggy prince when no one was there. When she attended his birthday on the night of the Rebellion, her attitude only reminded Kin of the reason he found her insufferable.

The time came and Jamila's friends, Aziza and Gina to the Mansion. They also came along with Rafa and Daisy who had recently joined their group.

The four Girls met at the garden and started their day there playing. Kin had seen the doll and he had tried as much as possible to be charming to get Daisy's attention but the girl was more interested in the stones on the floor than Kin.

Kin found her a bit strange with the way she acted. She rarely Joined the girls in gossip and would suddenly space out.

It was as if she was only reacting to what the others were doing and not doing things on her own.

"Maybe she's just a strange girl" Kin thought as he looked at her.

"Why are you staring at me?" Daisy asked when she noticed Kin staring.

"Nothing, Lady Daisy." Kin replied and resumed his duty.

"Who's the handsome guard?" Rafa asked.

"He wasn't here yesterday."

"Yes he went on an errand for my Dad. He's my personal guard."

"He's very young. How is he your personal guard?" Rafa asked again.

"We told you it was weird having such a young person as your guard". Aziza added.

"How did your previous guards die, you didn't tell us." Gina inquired.

"Well..." Jamila said making them lean over, including Daisy who was also quite interested in Kin for some reason.

"He kind of killed my two, previous guards some time ago so he took their place, or rather I insisted he did."

"Really, why didn't you tell us this before?" Gina asked in shock

"Quite, he would hear you" Jamila said.

Oh sorry Gina replied.

They all looked at Kin and giggled before continuing their conversation.

""I didn't really like Raru and Goni, they were very boring and stupid" Jamila said

"I thought their names were Garu and Roni" Aziza asked

"Whatever, what matters is they were bad, but this one is good, very good" Jamila said

"Ooh seems someone is crushing on the guard..." Rafa said.

"Well, Yes, I mean no, he still too young" Jamila said.

"Well in the next six years I'm sure he'll be very yummy" Aziza said.

"Very, very Yummy Jamila" Replied and looked at Kin and he smiled back at them.

"I just hope your father won't kill him if he finds out you like him" Gina said

"That's why this remains our little secret, ok?" Jamila said and everyone nodded.

Kin who was currently playing guard looked at them wondering what they were talking about. He just smile at them anytime they looked at him.

"I can't wait to have an Harem" he thought as his imagination went wild.
