“What did you just say…Remi…
you are pregnant for… who?
The prince asked Remi after
getting out of the shock, Remi
was no more afraid, she was in
for whatever will come out of
this, just like her mother said
she wasn’t asking the Prince to
marry her she just wanted to
let him know the truth, he
deserve to know that was
what her mother told her, and
she has made up her mind to
do this and was ready for any
consequences that will come
out of it.

She looked up at the Prince
who was staring at her waiting
for her to repeat herself, and so
she did

“you la!d with me…the night
you got drunk and asked me to
take you to your chamber, you
took my virginity that night
and that was why you saw
blood on your trouser…which
also stained your wrapper…I
couldn’t return the wrapper
because the blood stain was
still on it and refuses to go no
matter how I try so I kept it…
that was the night my prince…
on the fourth day of the
seventh day party that the
Queen hosted in the…
“shh..shhh…just wait…oh for
the gods sake…I don’t
understand you, Remi…I
remember getting drunk that
night and asked you to take
me to my chamber and you
did, and that was all I
remember, i called you Remi…
and asked you if anything of
such happened…after seeing
the stain on my trouser…you
said nothing happened
between us…that the blood
was from the wound you
sustained on your thigh while
helping me….the gods bear me
witness because that was
exactly what I hard you say
except I didn’t hear well…did
you say that or not…


“I…I did…yes I told you that
becau…


“Hold on…that is all I want to
know…since you told me
nothing of such happened that
night… why this…
uhmmm….you are Leja’s
woman and you two has being
together…why didn’t you go to
him…he told me himself that
you are his…why do you come
to me with the news of your
pregnancy…I’m seriously trying
to understand this…but is not
making any sense to me…
“I’m not lying this time…I’m
serious my prince…I have
nothing to do with Leja…he
wanted to be my lover but I
never gave in to him for once…
I am not in any relationship
with Leja…the only man that
has touched me…right in this
chamber was you…my prince…
let the gods bear me witness…

There was a knock on the door
and without waiting for an
answer Leja and Nike rushed
in, the prince turned to Leja..
“Leja…have you being
eavesdropping to my
conversation again…what is
really going on…


“imabinu omoba…(I’m sorry
my prince) I just couldn’t help
but over hard your
conversation with Remi…I was
by your door waiting to be
summoned I did not mean to
eavesdrop but your voice was
loud so I hard few of the things
you said about Remi being
Pregnant…

“Yes…yes…she said so and I’m
trying to make sense out of the
whole thing…isn’t she the
same person you claim to be in
a relationship with and that
loves you…so what is really
going on…because I’m
confuse….
“ my prince…we are in a
relationship…for a while now…
even Nike her sister here can
testify to that…I even visited
her back home and buys things
for the mother…her mother
knows me very well…I have
never lied to you before my
prince…Remi is my woman and
we even agree to settle down
together and she told me last
week that she was pregnant
and I asked her to keep the
child, we agreed on what to do
I was surprise to hear her and
telling you that she was
carrying your child….i was
shock when I hard her say that
and that was why I rush in
here the way I did…

Remi was so surprise to hear
all that Leja was saying and
Nike was just nodding her
head in agreement to
everything Leja said.
Remi wanted to defend herself
but the prince hushed her to be
quiet so that Leja can finish
talking, and after Leja was
done talking Nike started with
her own
“my prince…she confide in me
that she was pregnant for Leja
who she has being in a
relationship with for sometime
now, Remi, then said
something that shock me, she
told me that she was going to
make the prince feel
responsible for it so that you
can marry her, I was surprise at
the boldness she use in saying
such evil and I hushed her not
to say such but she said she
wasn’t going to have a child or
marry Leja because he is a
guard she wanted more, she
wanted to become the Queen
by all means, and she will
make the prince take
responsibility for the
pregnancy… my sister, Remi
said so many things, I can’t
even say half of all the ill
things she vomited from her
guttered mouth, everybody
knows that we are sisters, from
the same family, I can’t
possibly lie or be against her,
what will be my gain in that,
the misunderstanding we had
before has being settled , and
that misunderstanding was
also because of the prince
when she planned to s£duce
him and I was against her
doing such so she decided to
engaged me in a fight knowing
well I wasn’t feeling too well
that was why I passed out that
day, but all that was settled
and we have being in a good
term until she came up with
this pregnancy thing again, at
first she deliberately became
pregnant for Leja so that she
can make you feel responsible
for it…my prince I hate evil and
I can’t support bad thing even
if is my mother, but my sister is
getting out of hand and she
need to be dealt with in that
way she will stop all this lies
and accusation…how can she
accuse a whole prince of this
kingdom of being responsible
for her pregnancy knowing
well that Leja here, her main
lover is responsible…this is so
bad…apologies my kind
prince…


The prince sat hard on a chair
and held his head as Nike and
Leja accuse Remi who was just
standing as word fails her, she
did not even know what to say
or what to do.

Remi knew that Leja and Nike
had ganged up against her and
this is their own way to
revenge, she breathed deeply
and started regretting coming
to the prince chamber if she
knows that it will come to this
she would have stayed back
and carry her fate and she
would have told the prince
right in the beginning when it
all happened and he asked her,
but she couldn’t say such
because even the prince did
not remember touching her.
Leja and Nike have being
looking for this kind of
opportunity to tarnish her
image, destroy her personality
before the prince and here they
have finally succeeded.
Remi knew she has to be bold
and strong for herself, come
what may, she will not allow
Leja or Nike…or even the prince
to see her troubled soul.
The prince was quiet as Nike
kept talking and he suddenly
raised his voice at everyone to
be quiet
“Everyone should leave…leave
right now…I don’t want to hear
another word from anybody…I
have hard enough…I need
space to think…get out of my
chamber all of you…

Leja and Nike were surprise as
the Prince ordered them out,
they rushed out with speed
because the prince was
obviously very angry, they
knew they have planted the
seed of hatred in the prince
heart, all they will do now is to
wait for the seed to take root.
They can’t wait for the time to
come when Remi will be dealt
with, they thought his action
will start immediately but was
surprise as he asked them to
get out
Remi left and when she was far
away she waited for Nike and
Leja to catch up with her and
when they saw that Remi was
waiting for them they decided
to pass another road but she
rushed to them with speed and
blocked them, they stopped to
face her and she started
clapping for them
“Wow…that was a wonderful
display from two of you…you
two make a good team,
fantastic team, you deserve a
medal for putting up such a
show in there…wow…don’t
worry you will both reap what
you sow…it may not be now
but sooner or later your
reward will come like a flood…

don’t be surprise when it
comes…because the gods have
mark this day and saw my
innocence…the gods will judge
this case and whatever that is
meant to be will certainly be…
Leja spoke with a smile curved
at one end of his mouth
“you finally agreed that you
are pregnant after denying it
for so long…hahahaha…I told
you that you can hide
everything but you can never
hide pregnancy…I know the
truth…I know how it happen
but you kept on denying and
making me look stupid…you
chose the prince over me…I
told you Remi that I will mess
up your life if it happens to be
true that you are pregnant for
the prince…and I will do that…
the prince can’t have you…over
my dead body…I saw you first
and I wanted you but you
chose the prince over me now I
will make you regret ever
turning me down…you are
carrying his child…that suppose
to be my child not his, you
allowed him to make love to
you and took your virginity
that belongs to me…you
allowed the prince to lay with
you but you refuse to touch my
manhood…just a touch that
was all I asked that night as
my bladder was so hot and I
wanted to released the passion
on you and you pushed me
and insulted me but you
shamelessly went to the prince
and he la!d with you while in
drunkenness…you are so
shameless Remi…I feel so
angry right now that I feel like
slapping you…

Remi started laughing out her
pain as she hard Leja speak.
“hahahaha…Leja…I will fling
you like a kite across the fence
if you ever wave a hand to my
face…I will beat you like a
child…you are huge and tall
but I will sit on you and stuff
earth dust into your mouth if
you ever…I mean ever try to
point a finger to my face…I am
a hard nut…you can’t crack me
easily, you have formed a good
team with Nike…no problem…
I’m waiting for two of you to
bring out all you got, yes…the
prince made love to me…ooh it
was so sweet, he was fun to be
with more than you will ever
be, so interesting and I feel
good too, please go and hug a
palm tree if you are pained…I
don’t care, but yes I am
carrying the prince child…and I
will carry it to term and bring
him or her to this earth, I thank
the gods that I never had
anything to do with you…I
never agreed to your dirty
request…I can never be yours…
you and Nike are match made
together…you belong to each
other not to somebody like
me…listen to this…let me go in
detail on how me and the
prince had it… as I bared it all
open to him…I beckoned on
him to come fort and devoured
my body and he did, he was so
huge and good…I did not want
him to even stop as he went
on and on before you
interrupted us with your stupid
knock…


Leja jerked a muscle as Remi
spoke…he twist his mouth as
anger and jealousy burn
through him, he wanted to
make Remi to stop talking
about how good the prince
was in bed with her but he was
afraid to touch her, his eyes
was red as he bite his lips,
Remi hugged herself and laugh
as she talked about the
meeting with the prince that
night making Leja and Nike to
boil in envy, Leja hates Remi
more than he had ever loved
her.

“You make it sound like a
fantasy but the prince was
drunk and you were in serious
pain after the deed was done,
you were shaking Remi and
couldn’t walk well so with all
this your expression… I see
nothing else for you but how
sad you have to loose yourself
to a drunk prince and he hurt
you that night even though
you don’t want to admit it…the
pain was so obviously written
on your body that night…

“ooh yeah…talking about the
pain…it was a lovely pain…

sweet pain that got me with a
bundle of blessing…it was far
better being with a drunk
prince than it will ever be
being with you in a cleared
eye…just your mare touch feel
so disgusting and cold…but the
prince was so warm and
inviting…please deal with the
loss… you and your senseless
team member are all losers…

Nike spoke out of anger,
boiling even more as Remi
seem to have words for
everything that Leja says to her
and even taking pride in what
she and the prince did as she
expresses it to them.

“Remi you thought you are
smart…I told you….you were
messing with the wrong
person…we have not even
started yet…this just a little bit
of what that is yet to come for
you…you will regret in this
life…you beat me and my
mother up and dragged us like
animals into cleaning your
front door…aahh Remi…you
will regret it…I will deal with
you…walayi…I swear by the
gods…I will mess with you…
you want to have the prince…I
asked you to abort that
b-----d that you are carrying
and you said no, you want to
reap were you did not sow…
you wanted the prince… well
that will never happen…you
will never belong to the
prince…I will make sure of
that…if there’s anybody well
deserving of such then is no
one else but me…not you…I
suppose to be the one carrying
that child for the prince and
getting married to him to
become the future queen but
you ran faster than a shadow
to go and hang your cloths
where you don’t belong…this is
just the beginning for you
Remi…calamities will besiege
you, you will even beg for
death but it won’t answer
you…you will be force to kill
your self when we are done
with you…just be prepared..


“Nike…hmmm, your hatred,
envy and jealousy burn like
fire…I can feel the heat…i
wonder why you have decided
to compete with the gods…i
did not chose anything for
myself…the gods chose me to
serve here and that is what I
have being doing ever since…
this path you have decided to
thread hope you are capable
because as you know…the
gods has blessed me with
strength for any battle…so I am
not afraid of you or your
empty threats…Nike you will
fall into the hole you dug for
me and will burn in the fire
you set for me…I promise you
and everyone ganging up
against me… am innocent and
the gods are not dead…they
will vindicate me…so you all
should go ahead and bring out
what you got I will be waiting
because you and your team,
Leja ,your mother, yourself and
any other person that will join
you can not destroy me if the
gods did not permit…but if the
gods allows you then is fine by
me…but be careful Nike…be
very careful because you are
just about to draw a line of
war… my grandma said things
like this will happen now I’m
beginning to understand her
riddles but she said something
else…she said the gods chose
me because I’m strong enough
for the battle… so Nike…you
and your team should gang up
against me…the gods will
vindicate me…and the truth
can not be hidden forever.
Remi looked at them again
before walking away, she was
ready for anyone and anything.
Anything that can’t kill her will
only make her stronger,
She doesn’t know what the
prince have in mind to do or
what Nike and Leja are
planning but she was not
afraid.



Remi remembered her
grandmother’s word again.
“two will want you…only one
will have you then disaster will
struck…you will be in between
and the gods will take you
away faraway with the seed of
crown…which will become a
precious diamond sorted for, it
will be hidden in the deepest
part of the forest…
Remi remembered her
grandmother’s riddle which is
still a misery to her, she can’t
still fully explain it, when she
said two will want you but one
will have you Remi had
thought she understood but
right now even the prince
doesn’t want her and she
doesn’t want anything with
Leja either, maybe the only
part she understood is
“disaster will struck” she can
feel it but what ever may come
she silently pray the gods to
give her strength to overcome
hate with love just as her
grandmother has advised her
to do but as Nike and Leja
decided to trouble her she will
not allow them to break her
down.
