The emperor's lineage

Duties......

Theseus P.o.v

I smiled when I saw Ariadne carriage ride out of the castle, but deep down I was furious. Now the whole town would regard her as the queen. I was pondering on it when a thought raced through my mind, I smirked and walked to my study. I poured myself some wine while I perfected my plan, once I was done with the plan I knew fully well that by the time am done with that cunt, she will wish death upon herself.

I spent the rest of the time forming new strategies, reading through some village matters. I noticed it was duck and I was famished so I went to the dining hall, on my way there I saw Leonidas who was going there too. I walked in first to see the head cook standing behind the chair while the cunt is sited in the chair meant for the queen. That only made me angrier while she seems to notice it she moved farther away from in the chair. I sat down then saw Leonidas smile at her.

They started talking after the meal was served. I knew Leonidas was only trying to be friendly but this cunt was trying to something else with him. She is probably trying to use him too. Leonidas then made a face and she choked on her drink, some maid rushed to help her while this only angered me the more. Such pretense, but she noticed the look on my face. At that moment I could not take it anymore so I stood up and walked out of the room.

Instead of going to my bed chambers, I decided to wait outside for her. I saw her walking with a maid then she noticed me and stopped. She knows there is trouble, I dismissed the maid then walked into her bed chambers while she tried to block me off. I walked in and ushered her to sit, then I said to her:

“since you are my queen now as my sister and the high priestess stated, you must behave as a queen would behave and fulfill your duties as a queen, I have come here tonight to tell you about them, you cannot just sit down on the throne chair for nothing, you will perform your duties, you will earn each and every bow you get starting from tomorrow. Then I walked out of her chambers.

I woke up the next day feeling fulfilled, my plan has just begun. I bathe and wore my trousers without a shirt, while walking outside to train with my men. They knew that I do not fight with my men, I fight the barbarians. So once I got to the camp, I ordered some barbarians to be released. I hunted them in the snow before dragging them back to the camp where my men were waiting. I dragged all their three bodies back to the camp, but one was still breathing. He got up to fight me. Oh such a joke. I did not bother using my powers with him, he launched at me while I stood prepared and dodged his hand, grabbed and breaking it immediately. I then broke his knee, gripped his other hand, turned in over my shoulder and break it too. He fell to the ground grasping for his last breath while I turned knowing full well that the cunt was standing by one of the windows. I had noticed her there when I dragged the barbarians body to the camp. That w***e……she seemed surprised to see me look her in the eyes……

The stupid barbarian tried to use a wood he picked from one of the fire in the camp on me { my men let him take it because they knew I would never slack like that}, I turned in time to use my right to grip his neck, using my left to left to stop the burning wood from hitting my shoulder. I tightened my grip then cracked his neck. I dropped his body and teleported immediately to where the cunt has been standing. She was standing there with Lilian who was at the other window. I gripped her neck suddenly but not tight and whispered to her ears while I kissed her neck:

“I will gladly kill you the same way after you confess the truth”, I said and teleport again back to the camp. My men had taken the body of the barbarian so I decided to turn back and taunt that w***e some more by showing off some of my body that women kill themselves over. I stand really tall, even taller than most men in our realm, my height is complemented by dark brown hair, I leave it long, while only cutting it sometimes in the year. My black iris darkens the color of my hair, which seems to frighten people a lot. My body is well built from the endless training, and am proud of it. I was thought to with race from childhood, speak with grace and live with grace. When I talk women fall to their feet. It is part of the reason why I chose to leave the palace.

She was gone but Lilian stood there, she smiled shyly tugging her reddish hair back in when we held gaze. I hope this girl is not falling for my dark orbs. I turned, walking back towards Leonidas who held a shirt for me. I went to my bed chambers to bathe, change after which I when to the dining hall and found Leonidas there with the cunt. Lilian smiled again when she saw me, but I ignored her. I need to have a talk with Ariadne when she gets back. Meanwhile, I walked to my chair and sat down there.

The cunt countenance changed immediately, and I decided to taunt her again, I cleared my throat and picked an apple,

“do you know how to read”?, I asked her not sure what she was thought

“yes”, she replied, good I thought myself, then I noticed she stopped eating, so I assumed she must be through with her breakfast…

“Let’s go since you seem to be done with you breakfast”I said

“where are we going to?” she asked but stopped when she saw my murderous glares

She stood up and we both walked outside before I realized that Lilian followed us. We got to my study doors and I opened it, walked in, she followed and Lilian was going to enter when I stopped her

“she would not be needing you”,  I said, she looked shocked and furious but she smiled at Ocean who was now shaking, I closed the door then walk toward the chair. She stood there not moving,

“do you need a special invite my queen?”, I said mocking her again. She walked to the chair and sat down. She was in the light now, the sun was shining lowly that morning but it was enough for me to see her face, her lips, lashes and nose. She is a beautiful piece.

“you are to sign all those papers, read those books on how to be a good judge, decide the rations for the new families here, go to the family that just had their baby, welcome the child and have the name registered in that book……rearrange that shelf, that’s all”, I said while pointing at some books. She gulped as she looked at the books.

“is there a problem?” I asked her, waiting for her to complain….

“no” she replied shifting in her chair….

“you do not have to leave for lunch or supper, I will have them bring you your food, oh and you have to finish before tonight for you have important queen duties to perform in my bed chambers, with that I smirked and left the study……..

Oceans P.o.v

I was awakened by the noise at the door, I got up weakly, rubbing my eyes as I walked to the door to opened it. I was so petrified last night that I could not sleep all night. I had only just dozed off a while back at dawn. I opened it to see Lilian, she smiled at me while walking in with a pail of warm water. I was going to ask about her whereabouts but I stopped when I noticed she looked down. Maybe she missed Ariadne too.

So I held her shoulder and assured her. She helped me bathe, pick a dress with golden embroiling. She added some jewelries to fit them touched my cheeks with some colors. She smiled when she was done while helping me up. The dress was overflown like that of a real queen. You are a queen I thought to myself. We were walking to the dining hall when I heard cheering outside in the camp. I looked out and stood dumbstruck by the sight in front of me. Theseus was there with some men that looked like they were exposed to too much sun, they had scars on their bodies. Two were dead whilst one got up to fight Theseus. He fought with great skills. He is well trained and those arms. I watched him kill the man….. What is wrong with me…. I thought to myself. I was so lost in thoughts that I grasped when I felt a hand on my throat.

I could smell the sweat on him, I knew it was Theseus. He whispered that he would kill me the same way, then teleported back to where he was standing. My hands found my neck, trying to regulate my breathing only to run down the stairs, expecting Lilian to follow in suit. But she stood there looking out the window. I walked to the Dining hall on my own finding it difficult with the dress she chose. I sighed when I walked in , and noticed no one was there yet. I sat down in my sit only to hear Leonidas come in. we talked the snow when Theseus walked in. He was wearing a shirt that fitted him well…

I felt uncomfortable when he walked in, but he did not say anything until he cleared his throat picking an apple the asked if I could read. The master thought us how to read and write so we could have more value when we are sold out. I answered and he said to follow him. I looked confused but followed him anyways. Lilian followed me and I was glad for the company until he refused to let her into what looked like his study. Ariadne pointed it to me. He locked the door, gave me more duties than I could handle in a five nights.

He asked if there is a problem, but I lied when I figured he is trying to discourage me. I was more shocked when he mentioned something about tonight in his bed chambers. Does he mean, he wants to bed me……no, no…. there must be something else there. I sighed then began signing the papers {they were just deliveries of goods}, They were piled up so much I had to stop at one point stand up and pace around a bit. After I finished it. I read the book which was old, and big. By the time I was done, I was hungry. I was interrupted by the sound of the door, it opened while a maid came in with food and drink.

I took a break to eat before starting on the rations for the new families, I had to share it wisely else it would not be enough. B y the time I finished with that and arranged the shelf, it was dusk, I was really tired. I heard the door open to see Theseus walk in, he informed me that a guard will go with me to visit the family. I stood up slowly, before walking past him to see two guards waiting outside the door. They led me outside the castle. It was so cold, and we had to walk in the snow. I was almost shaking when we got to the family house.

I picked the baby and registered his name while smiling at him. He is such a charming babe, as were his parents. I walked back into the castle, hurriedly making my way to the dining hall to eat and drink something warm. I noticed Leonidas was there, with Lilian and Theseus. Theseus was laughing about something with Leonidas. I walked in shivering, Lilian rushed to me and helped me sit.

“Are you just coming from the snow?” Leonidas asked me

“I went to visit….before I could finish Theseus interrupted me saying” she went to perform some queen duties” He said,,

 I gulped while reaching for the hot tea that was served, I ate and was about to ask Leonidas a question when Theseus stood up beside me and said,

“It is time for us to retire to our bed chambers, good night everyone”, He pulled me with him……I gasped looking perplexed, What in the gods name is he doing?, He pulled me out and we walked towards another hallway. It was brightly lit, and very beautiful. I stared for a moment before trying to free myself from his grasps. He then stopped at a door, I looked at the door, staring at the art work decorated on it.

He dragged me in and pushed me on the bed. I tried to get up only to be stopped by him, he stood shirtless in front of me, I was mesmerized by his beauty. I was gazing at him when he kissed me, I was going to push him off when he caught my both hands and pinned it above my head. He bit my lips while pushed me further up in the bed, He removed one of his hand and tore my dress from the neckline, I was shocked but recovered when I felt his other hand in my underskirt. He stopped kissing me and moved to my neck then gripped hard on mu breast. I moaned when he twirled it with his fingers. He pulled at my underskirt, then found his way in touching me between my thigh, I gasped when he touched me down there, and his tongue found my n*****s. He bit down on it and at the same time pushed his finger into my fold. I was so lost in his warmth when he stopped, I looked in his eyes only to hear his cold voice:

“ get out, you are nothing but a cunt”, he said spitting fire at me……

I looked shocked by his voice, but was broken after he repeat himself with his back turned at me

“get out you w***e”,

I broke down in tears, trying to gather myself together. My dress is torn and he wants me out of here now. I tried to speak but he gripped my arm dragging me out roughly. He pushed me out and locked his door. I cried hard for a while before hearing someone’s voice….now the shame begins…
