NEXT MORNING, DUNGEON**

Zhuri was sitting with her back on the wall,she was in pain,her temperature was so high,she was sweating profusely and at the same time she was feeling cold. The bruises all over her body stings like hell,it was as if she would die.

Last night it was hunger but this morning,it’s more serious. Her sight was becoming blurry.

But it was cut short when suddenly the gate was opened and the brightness hit her face,she could see a lady with some guards coming in.

What are they going to do to her this time around? She wondered.

She didn’t Finish that thought before falling on the ground.

“Carry her,hurry” The lady’s voice said,that was all Zhuri heard before everything became blank,she lost her consciousness.

THRONE ROOM**

Emperor Augustus listened as each of the ministers dropped their complaints,he was reading the reports in front of him and dropping them one after the other.

“Minister of defense” The Emperor called when he opened the last report.

“Your majesty” The minister stepped forward.

“Go on” The Emperor ordered.

“Your majesty,the thieves from the East we told you about the last time,they haven’t stopped their missions. According to what we heard,they were in the people’s houses last night,robbing them of their properties and goods,they entered people’s farms to steal their foods”

“So what are you doing about it? How did they manage to enter through the city gate? Aren’t you shameless to bring this matter to me?” Emperor Augustus asked and threw the report away.

The ministers all bowed at once.

👥 FORGIVE US YOUR MAJESTY!!!

“If you can’t solve little matters like this,why are you all here? Every little thing,you want me to solve,what happened to the securities? How are you attending to those people being robbed? Should I get up and go to their houses?!!” He yelled.

👥 WE ARE SORRY YOUR MAJESTY!!

Emperor Augustus sighed.

“You are dismissed,all of you” He uttered and stood up,Asher immediately followed him as he went out.

It took like a minute after he left before the Ministers raised their heads.

🗣 I told you to try solving this before bringing it to his majesty.

🗣 Making no effort make him angry and you know that.

They continue murmuring among themselves till they all left.

NIGHT, COURT LADY ESME’S ROOM**

Zhuri was awake,but she didn’t open her eyes yet,she felt something soft where she was laying,and the temperature of the room was different. She opened her eyes and it roamed through the room,it’s not the dungeon,then…where??

“You’re awake” She heard the same voice she heard before closing her eyes back in the dungeon.

Lady Esme moved closer to her that Zhuri may see her.

“Who…..are you?” Zhuri asked.

“Court lady,you can call me Lady Esme” She said and Zhuri said nothing,she was still confused.

“The Emperor asked you to be released,since your service starts tomorrow” Esme said and Zhuri looked at her.

“What is that?” She asked.

“You will be announced publicly tomorrow as the Royal Slave” Esme replied and Zhuri’s eyes widened.

“Pub…..publicly?” She questioned.

“Of course,everyone will be present,from the lowest citizens to the royals,everyone..officially” Esme replied and Zhuri swallowed,she never imagined it’s something that big waiting for her.

Can she really hold in after the great disgrace coming tomorrow??

“You should take a long bath first,your dinner is here” Esme said and helped Zhuri out of the bed.

“How are your wounds?” She asked.

“Thanks to you,it’s fine” Zhuri replied and Esme showed her to the bathroom.

“Finally” Zhuri muttered,getting into the hot bathtub,she felt so refreshed. But when she remember what was waiting for her the next day,the little happiness flew away from her.

“You have to do this Zhuri,you can do it” She assured herself and closed her eyes in the tub.
