The Queen Of Time

Pain In The Ass (Twenty Seven)

        Spencer seemed to be stepping in a hurry as he passed one by one stone steps in front of him

with worry. Just now the prison guard reported to Aiden that Gazelle was making a scene in prison and nearly killed Tiffany by strangling her. The king then decided to come to the prison this afternoon after completing his duties to meet Gazelle. And before the afternoon

this is Aiden coming into prison, so Spencer quickly took the initiative to come first to prison. He himself felt inexhaustible with Gazelle's attitude that was very difficult to control. But he advised Gazelle that she should do good while in prison so that the king would grant her leniency. But, not even two days he was in prison, the woman had been troublemaking in prison by hurting Tiffany. Spencer doesn't know what Aiden's gonna do

after this. But, maybe Aiden will be more burdensome punishment Gazelle because the woman dare to disturb his calm. Moreover, Tiffany is the elder sister of Calistha, does not rule out the possibility if after this Calistha will ask Aiden to increase Gazelle's sentence because he had injured her brother.

        When at the bottom of the steps, Spencer increasingly accelerated his steps to go to one of the prisons at the end of the dark alleys. When Spencer arrives, the guards appear to be unsuspecting, allowing Spencer to go inside to see Tiffany's condition. After all, Spencer was one of Aiden's confidants, so they were sure that Spencer's arrival this time must have been on the orders of the king.

        "What are you doing?"

        The accusatory voice was immediately thrown at Gazelle when Spencer had been in front of the prison cell occupied by Gazelle. Seeing Spencer coming, Gazelle just put on a flat face and looked so indifferent. However, Tiffany immediately gave her a code so that she would start performing the charade they had agreed to before, because this is an opportunity for Gazelle to get sympathy from Spencer so that he can get out of that prison as soon as possible.

        "I didn't do anything about it, it was he who had harassed me and made me feel uncomfortable being here." gazelle said at last in an arrogant and haughty style that seemed very clear from the way the woman looked at Spencer. The man then turns to Tiffany and tries to examine Tiffany's body with his own eyes as the guards say that Tiffany almost lost her life as a result of being strangled by Gazelle.

        "Miss Tiffany, are you okay?"

        "Master, help me. I don't want to be in the same cell as that woman. It was so horrible. He used to be violent with me and yesterday he almost killed me. Help me sir." whined Tiffany with a contrived voice. Spencer looked concernedly at Tiffany, and after that he immediately stared intently at Gazelle. That woman is in danger now. If Aiden comes here and sees all this, then it is certain that the punishment Gazelle gets will be even more severe.

        "You, didn't I tell you to be nice while you were in prison. Why have you never listened to my words and continued to be this rude to others? If king Aiden sees this, the king will surely give you a very severe punishment."

        "Huh, you have no right to rule my life. Me, have my own life. Then what do you care if I have to be in this prison any longer, isn't that good? If I were in this prison, then I wouldn't have had the chance to hurt Aiden or kill Calistha. So, you better go and don't

never mind me." Gazelle said indifferently. Spencer growled angrily at Gazelle's reckless actions blatantly against him. He just wanted the best for the woman. No matter if his love will never be avenged, but can the woman still appreciate him as a friend? Well even though they have been at two different poles, but can't they still be in a friendship like they used to?

          "Spencer, what are you doing here?"

        Suddenly Aiden comes between them, leaving Spencer a little surprised, but he manages to control his surprise by being respectful to Aiden and bowing his body slightly to Aiden.

        "I'm sorry, Your Honor, I just want to see the condition of Miss Tiffanya, the guards told me that yesterday Ms. Tiffany had been strangled by Ms. Gazelle."

        "Hmm, that? Then how's Tiffany doing now?"

        "Tiffany..."

        "Calistha..."

        Suddenly Calistha appeared from behind Aiden's body while shouting hysterically calling out her brother's name. He heard the news that his brother was a victim of

the roughness of Gazelle, then in a panic he began to run towards the dungeon to see how Tiffany was. But, as he had not asked Aiden for permission, the guards did not allow Calistha to enter, and he had to wait until the afternoon when Aiden was done with all his work. And at the end of the day here it is, in a damp, dirty dungeon. When Calistha came, Tiffany immediately walked towards the bars to reach Calistha's hand that had been preparing to embrace her.

        "Tiffany, are you okay? What has Gazelle done to you?"

        "Cals, he's terrible. Throughout the night he continued to threaten me with all sorts of terrible threats. I want to get out of here, please get me out. I don't want to be in the cell with the killer." pointed Tiffany firmly with a voice that implied a thick tone of hatred. Aiden yeng saw that Calistha had been inside this dungeon of the land immediately looked at Calistha angrily, he gripped Calistha's arm, and brought the woman's body closer to him, not at Tiffany.

        "Who told you to come here? You should be in your room right now and preparing for tomorrow" Aiden coldly told Calistha. At first Calistha intended to ignore Aiden, but then she remembered that her current relationship with Aiden had changed for the better, so inevitably he must finally turn around and face Aiden's anger with a bold attitude, but as much as possible he will avoid a confrontation.

        "No one told me to, I came here on my own initiative. I want to see Tiffany's condition." Calistha said calmly. Aiden tightened his jaws furiously in front of Calistha. Although their relationship has developed for the better, it does not mean that the woman can do anything without her consent. Here he was king, and Calistha was supposed to obey his orders.

        "Go back to your room. There's no point in you being here." Aiden said flatly. Calistha finally caught the air of Aiden's unchanging nature, always being arrogant and forcing others to submit under her feet. But what he does sometimes is not necessarily true and ends well. Calistha then thought of challenging Aiden at this time because she wanted Aiden to also honor her as a future queen. At least Calistha wants to make Aiden look at a problem from another point of view, from his point of view that prioritizes the path of peace rather than the path of violence.

        "I'm not going back to my room until you take action on this matter. Let Tiffany go, let her out of this damp, filthy prison. Didn't you get me? Now I want you to keep your promise to me."

        Calistha said calmly as she folded her hands in front of her chest. Meanwhile Aiden has tightened his jaw since then and is still trying to be patient with his stubborn queen-to-be. He thought Calistha would really turn into a submissive and calm woman, apparently not. Their closeness did not change Calistha's attitude at all for the better, and instead the woman made their closeness a weapon to weaken him. Really shit!

        "What promise do you mean? Please don't make me do rude things that will make you hate me later."

          "You promised to make me happy. Now my happiness is to see the only brother I have happy. If Tiffany was here and always hurt by Gazelle, how could I possibly be happy? Please get Tiffany out of here. I'm sure Tiffany won't do anything after getting out of

this prison, if that's what you're afraid of. I'll vouch for Tiffany." Calistha said earnestly. Spencer looked at Aiden's flat look with a frown. As Aiden's trusted right-hand man, he was curious about the king's attitude after Calistha's presence at his side. Although he suspected that Calistha would have no effect whatsoever on the cruelty of the king, seeing this made Spencer hesitant. Looks like this time Aiden will grant Calistha's request easily.

The woman had changed Aiden's previously hard-willed nature a little more lenient and calm. Lately Spencer felt a change from Aiden's attitude toward better things. If in the past Aiden often snapped at ministers who did not do their job well and immediately removed their positions without giving an opportunity to correct their mistakes, so now Aiden will only advise the minister with his flat words and after that he will give the minister a chance to correct his mistakes. How the presence of Calistha is very influential on Aiden. But on the other hand Spencer was worried because maybe Aiden would be weaker with Calistha.

        "You want me to make you happy by releasing this evil sister of yours? All right, I'll do it. But, you must take full responsibility for his attitude. If he commits a crime just once, then I'll cut off his head in front of you."

        Calistha shuddered in horror at Aiden's words. He then glanced at Tiffany at a glance, trying to appease Tiffany who looked so frightened by Aiden's terrible speech. But, he was sure that Tiffany would not do anything after this. Tiffany is his biological brother, and he is the only person who knows Tiffany very well because they were born from the same womb, it is certain that Tiffany's nature will not be much different from her nature.

        "I'm sure Tiffany won't do anything. I'm his brother, and I know very well what his nature is because we were born from the same womb."

        "Huh, that? Remember what I said to Calistha, Tiffany still has the possibility of doing evil things after this because both of your parents are crafty people. They were the masterminds behind all my suffering during this time. So, I hope you can control it so that it doesn't end up like your cunning parents" Aiden said coldly. After that he immediately left Calistha who was still fixated on the spot with Aiden's words. The man, though very annoying, but what he said was indeed true. Although he is very difficult to admit it, but both his parents are evil, so he must prove his words to Aiden if Tiffany will never be the same as his two devious parents.

            "Calistha, my sister." call Tiffanya raucous with fake tears that begin to flood her face. Calistha then immediately walked up to Tiffany and hugged the woman as she could with the iron bars that were in their way.

        "Tiffany, you're free. After this you will live with me properly."

        Calistha cries in Tiffany's arms. While Gazelle who saw it was all only capable

applauded in amazement at Tiffany's impeccable play. He believes after this his chance to take revenge on Aiden will be wide open.

           "Wait for my revenge Aiden, you'll never live quietly with your goddamn queen."

-00-

        Spencer runs after Aiden who appears to be walking at a rapid pace in front of him. After an argument with Calistha in the dungeon, Aiden decides to immediately go away from Calistha because his current emotions are really difficult to control. If he stays there, then it is likely that he will hurt Calistha and make his relationship with the woman worse.

        "Your Majesty."

        Spencer shouted loudly at Aiden so that the man slightly slowed down his fast pace. Reluctantly, Aiden immediately turned towards Spencer while looking at the face of his trusted bodyguard with a flat face unfriendly.

        "What's wrong?" ask Aiden flat. Feeling the cold gaze piercing his bead, Spencer became misbehaved without daring to look at the king's face longer.

        "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but why are you letting go of Miss Tiffany so easily? Isn't she a dangerous woman? He's almost..."

        "I know, Tiffany is a dangerous woman, but I don't want to fish

the quarrel with Calistha was only because of that unlucky woman. I'd rather allow Calistha to free Tiffany than I should mess around with her stubbornness and defiance. Besides, this way he'll know what Tiffany's true nature is." Aiden explained plainly. Spencer nodded his head in understanding while staring respectfully at Aiden.

        "Alright Your Majesty, then I will go to do my pending tasks."

       Spencer almost turned around and walked away before the cold bass echoed quietly, implying a warning tone for him.

        "Be careful how you feel about Spencer if you don't want to be taken advantage of by Gazelle." Spencer froze on the spot staring nervously at Aiden. Apparently the man knew of his behavior lately who frequented Gazelle secretly.

        "Is His Majesty watching my movements?"

        "I know that you have had more feelings for Gazelle than ever, but unfortunately she doesn't love you and is infatuated with me who has obviously rejected her. I hope you're not stuck with your own feelings because the Gazelle that is now isn't the Gazelle that was. He had turned into a different figure, even I barely recognized him. So, be wise before you obey your own ego Spencer."

        Spencer nodded in understanding and directly bowed his head deeply in front of Aiden. He felt he had made a big mistake because he was swept away by his feelings. He promised, after this he will be more careful in acting, especially regarding the matter of Gazelle.

        "I understand Your Majesty, and please forgive me."  Aiden then walked away leaving Spencer still standing rigidly behind him. The man secretly becomes concerned with Spencer's fate, who must experience one-sided love. And unfortunately the woman he loves is Gazelle, a stubborn woman who is very difficult to control. In his heart Aiden felt grateful to God because the woman he was destined for was Calistha, because he could not imagine what his fate would be if he was destined with a typical hard and cruel woman like Gazelle, it was certain that his kingdom would slowly disintegrate as he had to continue fighting against the stubbornness of the woman.
