A novel of An Encounter chapter 20
Rheagar frowned picking out another shirt to wear, he stopped his search feeling her tiny hands around him.
"I'm sorry" She snuggled.
"Are you really sorry?" He muttered picking out another one.
"Actually no,it was funny!" Kaira chuckled.
"Leave me!" He removed her hands turning to her.
"Okay I'm really sorry, sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry!" she held her ear ,talking and talking, he sighed throwing his shirt on.
"Come here" He pulled her to him, he touched her hair arranging it properly.
"Who's the cake for?" She looked over at the table.
"Well today is grandfather's birthday and we're going to surpise him with the cake!" he said.
"I need to get ready then, let me go!!" she gibbered in excitement, she made to leave but he held her back .
"you're not fine kaira, you vomited just now who knows what you'll do later" he said concerned.
"No I'm fine look at me, I threw up I didn't faint look at me, please rheagar please!!" She pouted ever so cutely.
"Gosh...fine but once I see any sign you're coming to that bed" he sighed.
"Done deal...I love..." she stopped her words.
rheagar smiled "And I love you too kaira" he completed it.
Her cheeks burned red hearing those words "I..I didn't mean that..I mean I love cake..cake ..I don't love you..I'll go take my bath!" she ran into the bathroom In shyness.
He chuckled lightly "I know you love me too you don't need to say it!" he muttered, he turned back to the wardrobe searching out something for her.
"This are old clothes, she needs new and comfortable ones now" he mumbled.
Kaira covered her mouth trying to control what she was feeling inside.
"Did you hear that Phoenix?!" she grinned.
"He said it last night and said it again now, Rheagar loves me!!" she gushed.
"oh Jeez he does wow ,I never knew, he saved us from sansa but we never knew he loved you wow!" Phoenix uttered.
kaira scoffed rolling her eyes "wait..I.. I didn't say it back...I couldn't say it back!" her gut twisted.
"Then go tell him!" Phoenix snapped.
"I've never loved someone before..I mean the way I feel about rheagar its..." she trailed.
"Stop stop!, don't tell me tell him, please!" Phoenix stopped her.
.Kaira hissed out dropping the wrap from her body.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaira kept giggling silently as she inspected the cake on the table, She drooled savoring the wonderful design on it, made with black and gold color and a the logo of thageran flag on it.
"Shall we go now,you've been starring at it for 10 minutes now?!" Rheagar groaned watching her.
"I want to be sure its perfect " she smiled.
"Made by the Royal chefs themselves of course its perfect" he smiled back, he picked It off the table.
"I want to hold it" she muttered.
"So you'll take a beat no way!" he teased, she frowned glaring at him.
They came out of the room to see the faces of all the royal advisers.
"We came as early as soon as possible" Commander lanister said .
"What?" Kaira looked at them confused,her eyes met with chief hale but she tore it immediately.
"Its part of the surpise" rheafar muttered beside her, she nodded and watched them walk ahead.
Queen jezebel soon came out dressed richly and elegant she held her royal staff, to show her power and authority.
"Greetings queen mother!" They bowed.
They all reached king balem Chambers, rheagar still holding the cake, the guards opened the door immediately for them.
"Happy birthday grandfather!" Rheagar was the first to talk, king balem turned to him in surpise, he dropped the book In his hand.
"Oh my I thought you all forgot!" he smiled.
"Happy birthday your grace , we are honored to serve you!" the royal advisers bowed in respect .
King balem smiled walking to them, he felt so joyous seeing them all together for him, his eyes travelled to the cake in rheagars hands.
"There even a cake wow!" He smiled.
"happy birthday grandfather" kaira said.
"My most beautiful daughter in law, I couldn't come see you last night, how are you?!" he embraced her.
" grandfather I want that cake!" Kaira whispered into his ear ,king balem chuckled in shock of her behaviour.
He broke the hug starring at her "You may all leave, commander lanister please distribute 100 gold coins to each household on my behalf" he gave the order.
"All hail the king!" They chanted, they bowed and left.
"Jezebel order for the Royal storage to be opened for the Palace guards and maids, that's my gift to them!" king balem said, of course she nodded and walked out
"Grandfather this cake is specially for you today so please seat!" rheagar walked past him, he dropped it on the table.
"I can't eat that alone so you both will have to eat with me" King balem said, kaira already smiled knowing she would have the cake.
she immediately walked to it taking her seat.
"Its was specially made for you grandfather!" rheagar persisted.
"I know my boy I know" king balem chuckled, he also sat making rheagar seat beside him.
"You know it's really the goddess mercy that a old wolf like me is still alive and strong, and I'm glad to see my grandfather happy and fulfilled, and kaira I'm really sorry we never told you about sansa, rheagar ..." he muttered.
"No grandfather please don't apologise to me please!" she stopped him.
"I don't care about rheagars past grandfather I'm in his present and that's all I care about now" she said from her heart.
"Oh you kids, can I eat my cake now?!" king balem chuckled.
QUEEN JEZEBEL CHAMBERS
"Why didn't sansa just kill her?!" Phiona raged out.
Queen jezebel looked out of space plotting plans in her head.
"your majesty?" Chief hale came in.
"We have to start our plan today itself I can't keep watching that girl take over everything" She got up her chair.
"I have an idea my queen" phiona spoke up.
"We create a rift between them ,we make sure they just have to separate at all cost!" she stated.
"I don't think that will work, my son has been spellbound by her her words her yes and amen!" Queen jezebel groaned.
"Then what can we do?" Chief hale groaned also.
"I might have an idea that will work" Phiona thought of another plan again.
"Let me hear it" Queen jezebel placed all attention as she laid out her plan.
"That's the perfect way to get back at her" Chief hale smirked.
"Are you sure it will work?" queen jezebel asked.
"It will work my queen, I already have the drug we only have to make him have it" Phiona persuaded.
~~~
Kaira walked silently beside rheagar ,she held his arm tight grinning and giggling for no main reason.
"Will you tell me what's so funny?" he had to ask her
"Nothing,I'm just happy, and that cake....!!" she grinned extra.
"Foodie, you had your eyes on the cake all through ,you ate it so enjoy!" rheagar chuckled.
"Hmmm, I want more!" She stated
rheagar stopped facing her "Cake isn't healthy i won't let you have it" he said.
"What kind of person are you,cake isn't healthy?, who told you, I'm telling you cake is healthy for me not only me the baby" she muttered, rheagar snorted at her words.
"so now babies can talk?" he stroked his jaw.
"yes listen!!" she pulled his ear.
"Okay what's she saying?" He was ready for her drama.
"Cake,cake cake cake cake cake cake cake ,cake, I can keep this up forever!!" she turned it into a song.
She started walking around him chanting the same thing .
"I married a child!" He sighed in frustration.
"We want cake, we want cake!!" she added volume to her voice making everyone hear them.
"Is this a protest?"
"Her queen loves to cause trouble for his majesty"
"I love her drama "
"The kingdom is never boring with her"
The maids whispered among themselves.
"Do you like cake?" kaira asked one of them.
"yes..yes my queen"
"and you ,do you like cake?" She asked another one.
"Rheagar give us cake!!" she even raised her hands to chant.
Rheagar rubbed his temples to calm himself,he walked toxher holding her hand down
Without thinking he carried her up instantly lifting her from the floor ,she smiled cutely wrapping her hands around his neck.
Phiona watched them from a corner she frowned but soon smiled as her plan ringed in her head.
"You haven't seen anything rheagar, I want cake now, after I want ...." she tapped her chin thinking of ehat next to demand.
Rheagar chuckled walking to the kitchen, he walked in with her still in his arms.
"She's my role model!" one of the maids gushed admiring them.
He walked into the kitchen and all work stopped, he walked to the counter dropping her gently, making her seat.
"Suspend everything you're doing, I need....Wait how many?" he faced her back.
"Just 2 ,simply 2" she signified with her finger.
"your majesty?" a guard came in.
"yes?" Rheagar faced him.
"His grace calls for you in his chambers" Rheagar nodded.
"I'll be back" He kissed her forehead heading out.
kaira smiled swinging her legs "I love the first one so make me something like that,thank you" she said to them.
~~~~ LATER ~~~~
Rheagar waited watching his grandfather scramble words on paper.
"Can I read it now ?" his impatience got the better of him.
"Hold on kiddo, you'll read it soon" the man kept writing, he soon stopped and smiled.
"here read it" he handed it to rheagar.
"gracious Kong lucas, I write to weakened heart to you to inform you of your daughter sansa actions to my daughter in law which I know you must have heard of, for that reason I hereby renounce her authority as queen of enchancìà, the lands which she owns are no longer hers so they rightfully belonged to my son supposed to her as the bridal gift, they now belong to the queen of thageran ,queen kaira . I am always available if you want to meet and discuss but let princess sansa know that she is not welcomed in my kingdom" His jaw dropped ad he read everything.
"This is wonderful grandfather why didn't I think of these!" he was amazed.
"That's the perfect punishment for her my Boy, you don't worry take it as a birthday gift to my queen, she owns South and North borders now,go tell her the good news!" king balem smiled.
"she's going to come here in five minutes" rheagar chuckled, he sighed happily.
"Then go" King balem nudged him, rheagar bowed,he dropped the letter back heading out of the room.
He hadn't walked a distance when phiona popped in front of him, as instinct he caught her but as soon as he saw her face He pushed her away.
"What do you want phiona?" He asked even toned.
"Nothing my king, I only to make apologise I tripped back then" she said.
"Okay" he walked past her.
"I sincerely apologise for the confusion I caused with the queen,I honestly don't have any wrong intentions towards you or the queen I actually admire her" she blabbered
"Okay" he said once again continuing his walk.
"Done" she smiled cunningly.
Rheagar opened the door to see his queen ,her cakes were already made for her but she wasn't eating.
"Wow it smells so nice " he grinned shutting the door.
"I'm telling you , the maids are the best they made me laugh so much and I even learnt some tips from them" she stood up.
"Hmm what did you learn?" he walked to her.
"I forgot immediately I left" she laughed.
Rheagar stopped as he felt something hit his head,he staggered back losing his balance, kaira Immediately rushed to him.
"You've been telling me to rest but youre the one sick" she muttered holding him up.
"I'm fine" he lied,his sight became blurry not being able to see her face clearly, the fog soon cleared and she became clear to him.
He removed her hand stepping back, as he blinked in confusion.
"Rheagar?" She stepped forward again.
"Excuse me do I know you?!" He asked trying to recognise her face.
"Stop your joke, do you know me? I I'm queen of chancià" she uttered.
"I'm sorry but who are you and what are you doing in my room" he wasn't joking ,he didn't recognise her.
Kaira stepped back in shock "You..you don't recognise me?" She asked to be sure.
He held his head to think but he still couldn't remember her.
"I don..." he stopped as the door opened.
"Rheagar?" Queen jezebel called beside her was phiona.
"Mother you?"He turned to them.
"Your majesty are you alright ?" phiona rushed to him hugging him tight.
"Kaira where were you?" He hugged her back
"what sorcery is this, I'm kaira rheagar!" kaira stepped forward again.
"Leave him!" she drew them apart.
"How dare you.." she raised her hand but the last person she thought would hold her hand did.
"Don't you dare rise your hand to my queen!" rheagar literally growled pushing her away.
Queen jezebel smirked from where she took watching the show.
"Your..your.. Queen?" Kaira couldn't believe her ears.
