The escape
A few days gone, Jeffery continued with his work as the Queen's slave in the kingdom.
Although the death of his wife and his unborn child still hurt him painfully every second —he had sleepless nights, and agonize every minute.
There is a great time when he felt like killing himself too. But then, he wished to make Isle pay for everything, he wish to see her in pains and sufferings...
He was hell-bent on revenge on her.
And so it went on, days have gone into weeks and weeks into months... The suffering of the alpha slave was unspeakable, and no one was able to confront the terror queen and stop her.
One day, Queen Isle was away on a long trip to one of the neighboring kingdoms; she had to know how well her people fare, and the kingdoms within her rule.
She has been away for four days, but no one could tell when she'd be back!
Momentarily, princess Danika was seen as she paced towards Jeffery's room.
She needed to see him, and it was extremely urgent.
Well, she has thought about a plan and she guessed it was time for her to tell Jeffery before her sister would be back.
"And where are you off to?" A voice abruptly said behind Danika, but she didn't seem startled or bothered to glance behind her back.
Of course, she knew it was her brother, William.
"Don't tell me you want to help that slave?" Prince William said, walking quickly behind her.
"William, please let me be!" Princess Danika yelled, pacing further with a huge grimace on her face.
"Trying to save that young man can endanger everyone in this castle, please have a rethink!" Prince William pressed on, he needed his sister to see reason with him.
Their elder sister, queen Isle is not someone ordinary to mess with!
"I don't care," Princess Danika grumbled, boldly.
Prince William halted on his track, his hands crossed on his chest as he silently watch his sister leave towards the dungeon —Danika is proving to be a stubborn woman.
"I just hope sister won't be back before they get the time to leave," he muttered worriedly, he spun and walks away.

Princess Danika got to the dungeon, she met the two guards who were reluctant to let her pass.
"I am the princess of Denmark! How dare you block my path!' She raucously growled.
"It's the queen's orders not to let anyone pass!" One of the guards stringently said to her.
Princess Danika was immensely outraged, she swiftly moves to the other guard and pulled out his sword.
"Do you have a say further?" She arced her brows, she glares daringly at them.
Both of the guards moved backward, they lowered their heads as they moved aside for her to pass.
Princess Danika stormed past the guards, she walked into the dungeon and stepped into Jeffrey's dungeon.
She saw him sitting on the dirty floor of the dungeon, Jeffery had a mug of water in his hand, it was obvious he had just finished a whooping of work this morning.
"What are you doing here?" Jeffery nonchalantly asked, gulping down his water.
"I came here to help you escape, you can't stay in here and suffer more!" Princess Danika says, staring at him pitifully.
Jeffery chuckled, he was breathing heavily. "I'm not escaping, Danika. I can't, what about my people?!"
"Forgo about your people, Jeffery. Think about yourself first —you need to save yourself before you save them. If you escape from here, you can always come back any other time to save them from the claws of my sister!" Princess Danika told.
Jeffery stayed silent, he was inwardly thinking about her words —Danika was right, if he succeeds to escape from here, he can travel down to king Maddox's kingdom and conceal there for a while before retaliating at Isle.
"But what about Noah, what about Penelope?" Jeffery lifted his blue eyes towards her.
Princess Danika sulked her lips, "does he like Penelope that much? That arrogant bitch!" She inwardly growled.
"I will take care of them, don't worry!" She says to him in an assuring tone, Jeffrey stood to his feet with the mug in his hand.
Princess Danika gulped down drily as she watched him walk closer to her, this man was exceptionally gorgeous with his hefty height!
She inwardly felt intimated!
Jeffery curtailed in front of Danika, his face leaning forward to her. He could see how breathless she was, and uneasy too. "I agree to escape from here," he says to her face which was inches away.
"G-good," Danika shutters, taking a step and a step away from him. "It's best if we leave now, I will dismiss the guards," she told, and then, she walked away.
Princess Danika held her chest, he was extremely closer to her and she was unable to stare straight into his eyes. Eventually, she got to the guards and they turned to face her.
"You both may leave, I wanna be alone with the slave!" She steely orders.
"B-but the queen?" One of the guards asked, he seemed scared of the queen finding out that someone had stepped into the dungeon.
"I will take the responsibility for whatever happens, I promise!" Princess Danika tells, she came across to be confident.
The guards shared a few looks, it was as if they were communicating through their body language.
"Alight, princess!" The guards bowed, and then, they both strode away.
Princess Danila sighed deeply as she walked back to the dungeon, she joined Jeffery who drops the mug on the floor and they both stood in front of each other.
"We will take the path which leads to the secret passageway, I had the doors opened before coming here," she lowly explains, Jeffery nods.
Then, princess Danika turns around and walks away from the dungeon with Jeffery following behind her.
They loaded carefully, glancing behind their backs to make sure no one was following them. They needed to be vigilant, or else someone might catch sight of them.
They were proficient enough to crawl past the stairs and into the hallways, they finally got to another stair that looks old and abandoned. They walks down gently and took the door which it leads to, Danika closes the door behind her after they had walked inside.
The passageway was dark and dingy, it was at the same time silent; they could hardly see one another.
"This is getting better, but why do I feel unsafe?" Jeffery says, he was suddenly uncomfortable.
"You don't need to be frightened, the door of this passageway is the final path for you to escape, I will find the torch for us to see through the dark," Danika told, moving toward the walls.
"TRYING TO ESCAPE?" A sinister voice was heard, it was startling and frightening at the same time. It was cold enough to send cold chills down the spine of the souls.
"S-sister?" Princess Danika shutters shockingly, she was panicked as she stared around the dark scenery.
"Shit!"Jeffery cussed lowly, his fists tightened as he glares into the dark.
Suddenly, a bright light came on from the far end of the passageway, brightening up the whole place.
"Ta-da!" Queen Isle was seen, standing devilishly with the guards behind her back —her hands were crossed behind her back, a smirk playing on her lips.
"Guards! Seized them!" She ordered, and instantly, the guards stormed toward Danika and Jefferey.
"Let him go!" Princess Danila yells, struggling to free herself from the hands of the guards.
Queen Isle meanly giggled, her green eyes beaming at her captives. She glanced at Jeffery, his head was lowered, and his long black hair was obscuring his face.
"Aww, don't feel defeated my alpha slave. At least, you will soon hear the wonderful screams when your phallus is being roasted, huh!" Queen Isle smiled.
"What!" Princess Danika bellowed with her eyes widened.
"You dare not do that!' Jeffery couldn't help but yell, his phallus was threatened to be roasted!
Who does that?
"Guards take them away, tie Jeffery in my throne room with my sister beside him!" Queen Isle crossed her hands on her chest. "...and don't forget to get the fire ready too, I will personally burn his erection myself!" She steely told.
"No oooo!!" Princess Danika cried, struggling aggressively in the hands of the guards. "...please, don't do this sister!"
"Let go of me! Let go of me!!" Jeffery growled, battling with the guards but he has chained already, making it impossible for him to fight as they were being dragged away.
"Game time!" Queen Isle chortle, walking majestically behind them.
Abruptly, she was paused in the hallway when she saw two guards running towards her —they both appears intense.
"And why are you both running like that?" She angrily asked, turning aside to face them.
"My queen, a few people awaits you at the throne hall. They said they wish to have a word with you!" The guard said, and Queen Isle frowned the more.
Who could be they?
