774 Words
Toyo was the gatekeeper at the Alpha's Castle. He was tall and well-built. He had a special ability to see beyond the natural eyes. His father was the kingdom's Seer and he got the characteristics from his father. He could know things and how they happen.
Except in cases when the Moon gods decide to hide secrets from him. So In most cases, he doubles as both the Gatekeeper and the Alpha inner chambers seer, especially in cases when his father is far away or having some discussions with the gods. He could be called his Father's Assistant.
“Look into the Spirit and tell me where my daughter is, since you didn't see her leave the castle this morning…." The Alpha ordered Toyo.
Round his waists were lines of beads of different shapes and sizes. It had a string that interconnected them and whenever he wanted to step into the office of his father, his eyes turned blue and he emitted fire from my ears.
He placed the beads down, crossing his legs Like he usually does, and lifted his head into the Sky and muttered some unintelligible chants either calling up the moon gods or saying something no one could comprehend.
He repeated it thrice and turned the heads in a circle, stood up, and did the same kind of dance his father, Seer Zia always did.
He heaved a deep sigh and shook his head negatively as he looked at the Alpha.
“What's wrong, Toyo…is she safe?" The Alpha queried.
“Yes, She is. She is very safe…" He said assuredly, nodding his head repeatedly.
The Alpha's face lit up at the assurance of Toyo.
“….But I am afraid, the great Alpha"...Toyo said Sharply.
“….Afraid of…?"
“The Princess has committed an abominable act. Very abominable act. I can see her dancing under the tree with a hunter ….…" Toyo reported.
“Is that it…?" The Alpha said wondering when dancing under the tree became an abomination. Well, except Toyo meant why would a princess dance with a hunter?
“Great Alpha, He is human, I can see his blood, the hunter is human".... Toyo blasted furiously.
“What"..? The Alpha and The Beta together with the two elders at the inner castle exclaimed in unison.
One took a lot at the other and bowed his head in shame. The Alpha knows what awaits him too if his daughter eventually brings Shame to the Kingdom
…………………………………………….
“Greetings, Great Alpha"....Bella walked in quietly interrupting their shameful expressions.
“Where on earth are you coming from?…" The Alpha blasted loudly
“I ….I …Just…Bella Stammered
“Tell a lie to me and I will kill my only daughter right now…." The Alpha threatened standing from his throne with fury
Her heart raced with speed as she would never want to lie to her father especially when he was angry.
“Who is that young man…?" The Alpha asked sounding so sure.
Bella, knowing that she had been caught since she saw Toyo in her father's inner chamber, knew that she couldn't tell a lie not just for the fear of dying but the fact that she had been caught.
“He is…He is……" She further stammered.
“Get me your men, all of them, no one should be exempted. Go far away down to Zumba Region and get me that Lunatic of a hunter now……….."
The Alpha Bursted angrily at the chief Steward, Zuna.
