Love of the Empress 2: King and Queen

Destiny and Karma

"Pardon me, Your Majesty." Soraya said in a single breath.

The movement of Karina's hand that rubbed Rinaya's head, had stopped when she heard Soraya's speech.

"You're no longer my servant. We've had nothing to do since your betrayal, Soraya. So stop calling me Your Majesty. Because I feel disgusted to hear it!" Karina said without feeling.

The betrayal that Soraya committed against her was clearly a shock that hurt Karina. Karina thought she could still find good people in this strange world.

But it turns out that Soraya who has been considered as his own friend can also betray him.

Karina was shocked, as she was waiting for the reappearance of the Huna spirit that would bring Daffa to her. Because suddenly some dark-clothed men appear and take her and Rinaya away.

Karina only had time to see Soraya who was talking to one of the group of foreign men. Karina knew that Soraya had handed her over to someone else.

At the beginning of her Karina was afraid that the person told by Soraya was Frans. But after a long journey to a new place, and also several weeks and months that also passed. Karina knew that Frans was not Soraya's ally.

Strange until now, Karina still has not met with Soraya's allies. Even Soraya did not see him again.

So it was finally Karina's days passed with feelings of anxiety and worry. He was more worried about Rinaya, his only daughter.

Back to this moment. When Soraya cleared her throat hard enough. Trying to neutralize the atmosphere that feels awkward between the two.

"Hamba cannot refuse Mr. Bahm's request, Your Majesty. For he is the one who has given a decent life to the servant. Servants have also been saved from the threat of starving to death once," Soraya reasoned.

"At least starving to death is much better than living by selling yourself. Because it is a despicable act that destroys your own dignity and worth, Soraya!" Cibir Karina is back.

Karina's words again poked right into Soraya's heart.

That was true of the queen Goluth. Soraya's life has become despicable now. But Soraya then returned to his defense.

"At least his servant is still alive. Servants can still enjoy a future that will probably be better than His Majesty's own life!" Tukas behind Soraya who began to feel annoyed because it was always insulted Karina.

Grueling in Soraya's tone of voice, a smile appeared on the beautiful face of the queen of Goluth.

"Finally, you showed your true face as well, Soraya. Thank you for being honest with me right now. If you had done it before, it would have been even better. Because I wouldn't expect to have a new best friend in you!" Karina said with a cynical smile.

"?!!" Soraya wanted to reply to Karina again. But he was then reminded of the purpose of his arrival here.

Contrition. Apologies. And orders from Mr. Bahm.

Soraya closed both her eyes. He tried to neutralize the anger that would almost swallow him round and round.

'Calm down Soraya. You do deserve a scorn from the Queen. Because that is your life right now.' Soraya rebuked herself.

After a long while, Soraya regained her composure. He then continued his speech again. This time, directly to the core of the conversation that he really wanted to convey to Karina.

"I want to ask. Does Your Majesty know where Golden Boy was held captive by king Elfran?" Ask Soraya to the point.

Karina was stunned by Soraya's question.

"Golden Boy? You mean, the little boy Frans held captive in the iron chamber?" Karina asked.

"Yes. About the boy. Does Your Majesty know in the iron room where exactly King Elfran kept the boy?"

"I don't know" Karina replied briefly.

After a few seconds passed, Karina added.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have told you. Surely you or your ally's friend wanted to catch him too, didn't you? You're gonna lock that kid up like me, aren't you, here?" Cecar Karina.

At that instant, Karina caught the threat in Soraya's sentence.

"What do you mean by that Soraya? Are you threatening me?!" The Queen of Goluth.

Soraya let out a tired breath. Rather, he must memorize the nature of the queen Goluth.

Soraya then looked out the window. And he approached his outskirts. The view of the sand filled the streets of the city. Allain's country does stand on the desert area.

"In this world, power and power are above all His Majesty. Isn't in His Majesty's home world like that too? What's her name ..earth isn't it?" Soraya said as she stared at the vast expanse of sand.

"But on earth, people also know justice and karma!" Karina did not want to lose.

"Karma? What'sthat?" Soraya looked at the queen. It seems obvious confusion seems to decorate his sweet face.

"Karma is like vengeance. Whoever sows good, then good will be received. And whoever sows evil, then evil will be accepted!" Karina explained.

For some time, the two women looked at each other. But it lasted not long. Soraya was the one who first cut off the eye connection between the two.

This happened because Soraya felt trepidation as she stared at the queen's eyes for a long time. There is a hidden power in the queen that makes her feel subdued and remembered by her old position which is only a servant of danger.

Soraya's gaze turned back to the streets of the sand city. While his oral back speak.

"If in this world also apply such laws. Unfortunately, like his law of karma does not apply in this world, Your Majesty," Soraya added in a regretful tone.

"Who said?! Of course the law of karma would apply in any world as well! And what you're doing right now will also come back to you later, Soraya!" Rutuk The queen.

"What will come back to me, Your Majesty? I have had nothing since I was born into this world. The servant was even sold by the servant's own mother and was educated to be a servant from the servant's age. Smaller than Rinaya's current daughter!" Soraya said with a tone that started high.

"Hamba didn't have a single good shirt, before I sold this body. All I did before was be a servant and a messenger. Tiring and life-threatening work. The evidence of his servant up had to go from the palace of Goluth, right? Just because of the alleged theft that king Erlan made to the servant!" Cockroach Soraya fiery.

"And what I did at that time was just a servant. The servant never steals. The servant never hurt anyone. But why do I only accept suffering?! Is that what you call karma?! That's his evil name, Your Majesty! The evil destiny!" Soraya's cockiness is starting to get hysterical.

Rinaya, who had fallen asleep, slowly moved when she heard the voice of Soraya's cry.

The two adult women then suddenly remained silent. While Karina rubbed the princess's back until Rinaya returned to sleep. At that time Soraya just stared enviously at the figure of the queen Goluth in front of her.

After confirming that Rinaya had fallen asleep again, Karina spoke again. This time, he whispered his sentence in a very slow voice.

"Well whatever life destiny gives us, we always have the same opportunity to create a better future. It's gonna be good or bad for us, it's all up to us, Soraya,"

"Don't blame fate for the misfortune we have in our lives. Just focus on finding a way to a better future. Like I'm doing right now,"

"I want to live happily with Rinaya and the people I love. Even though fate took me far into this world, but I know, there must be a reason why I should be in this world. I just don't know what the reason is,"

"We all learn to understand each other's lives, Soraya. And we also strive to create happiness for our lives. But, do not let us get lost in pseudo-conjugation. While we forget the true happiness that we should strive for, really,"

"Let's cry again to yourself, Soraya. Are you happy with your life now? Selling a body for a moment's pleasure? Is your heart really happy?" Karina said at length.

Soraya was stunned when she heard the Queen's words. The two stared at each other for a while.

And again Soraya also broke the eye connection between the two. Soraya admitted defeat. He knew that he would not be able to face the determination of the heart possessed by the queen of Goluth.

Without saying anything in the morning, Soraya leaves Karina and Rinaya in her seclusion room.
