Chapter 458 Take Me To The Bridge
Morava called her maid and asked her to arrange a carriage for her in the evening.
"Where would you like to go, m\'lady?" she asked.
"That is none of your concern!" Morava snapped. How could she tell the maid that she was planning on escaping the Hydra Kingdom? Even if she found one crack in the seal, she would escape at the first opportunity. "Just do as I say."
The maid gritted her teeth. She bowed to Morava and then walked out of the door, cursing and grumbling.
"Why are you so irritated, Gema?" asked the guard who was strolling in the corridor, least bothered about the security of the queen. He dragged a long puff from his tobacco roll and let out a big cloud of smoke.
"That bloody bitch!" Gema grumbled. "She is rejected by three Alphas and yet she thinks that she is the queen. Eight Alphas are left to reject her!"
The guard laughed. "You are really looking forward to all the rejections? Are you so sure that she will be rejected by all of them?"
"With her kind of attitude it would be a wonder if even one of them keeps her." Then she leaned forward and lowered her voice. "Do you know what?" she said in a mystic way.
"What?" the guard asked her, all ears.
"The eldest Alpha, Alpha Nester—" Gema said, lowering her voice further. "He plans on sharing her with his right-hand man, Kepp. Aaaanddddd—" she added dramatically. "From what I have heard, Kepp is coming for her tonight."
The guard\'s eyes went wide. "What?" she said in a shocked tone. "Kepp?"
"Shhh!" Gema chided him. "Keep your voice low."
"But how do you know all this?"
Gema giggled. "Kepp\'s concubine was complaining. She said that Kepp liked the taste of the queen\'s mouth."
The guard looked at the queen\'s door. "She is spicy. Should I try my luck with her?"
Gema smacked him on his chest and laughed. "Don\'t tell it to anyone, okay?"
By evening the whole palace knew about Kepp\'s interest in Morava and also about her infidelity to the Alphas. Some also stated that she was doing \'it\' with Kepp, because the Alphas were unable to give her pups.
Morava dressed in a black gown and braided her hair. She wanted to purposely let the evening turn into night. She was going to scour throughout the borders to find a bend. As soon as she stepped out of her bedchamber, she saw the guard looking at her strangely. She ignored him and walked further down the corridor. The maids and other servants snickered behind her back. She wanted to lash out at them, but she didn\'t have time for this nonsense. And why were they even snickering? For all she was concerned, they could go to hell. Tonight she would escape.
When she was about to cross the main hall that received the guests and go to the porch to sit in the carriage, a heavy, commanding voice stopped her. "Queen Morava."
Morava jerked her head to the left and found Kepp standing in the shadows of the door. She hurried her steps away to get to the carriage, but Kepp was faster. He came to her quickly and grabbed her upper arm. She tried to yank it away from him, nervous as hell. "What do you want?" she growled.
"I want you," he replied without shame. Then he started pulling her towards her room.
"Leave me, you bastard!" She slapped his hand. "How dare you behave like this with me? I am the queen!"
Kepp stopped as his lips curled up in a vicious smile. "A queen who is shared by so many." He leaned forwards to her and in a low voice said, "Nester wants me to have you so that you don\'t bother him. Do you know he is with his five concubines right now?"
"I don\'t care. I don\'t like him or you. I won\'t bother him now, so just let me go!"
He let out an evil laugh. "That won\'t happen, my queen. So come with me. If you want, I can throw you on my shoulder and take you back to your room. Else you can come amicably."
"I am not weak to succumb to your threats!" she growled. "I have the support of eight Alphas!"
Kepp narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he picked her up and threw her on her shoulders. She squealed and called the guards, but no one came. And for the first time, Morava realized that she was alone. Kepp took her straight to the next Alpha\'s quarters and made her stand in the main hall. "Feric is right there." He pointed to a room overlooking the main hall. "Go find him and ask for his support."
Morava was getting frustrated. But at the same time, she was afraid that she was going to end up rejected. However, she had to scare Kepp once and for all. She stomped her way to Feric\'s room and was stunned into silence. Feric was with five women and two men, all sprawled across the bed and rug and couches naked and having sex. As soon as Feric saw her, he grinned. "Come on Morava," he said. "Join us!"
Morava slapped her mouth with her hands. With tears running down her eyes and a sharp pain in her chest, she rushed down. When she saw Kepp, she found him grinning at her. She walked past him, but he grabbed her and threw her on his shoulder. "You are coming with me, queen!"
She thrashed her hands and legs, but it was of no use. Kepp took her to her room and within seconds, stripped her naked. An hour later, Morava was lying on the bed with him. He had gone off to sleep.
Taking the opportunity, she got up quietly, wore her black gown, tied her hair in a bun and got out of the room. This time, she rushed out quietly, keeping her head low. As soon as she sat in the carriage, she ordered the carriage man. "Take me to the bridge." She had had enough of Hydra.
