Chapter 6 - Dungeon

My eyes opened slowly, I was still in the meeting room, now everyone is gathered around me, while I was on the floor, looking wretched and bad, hazel wasn't beside me anymore, I panicked "where's hazel, what did u do to her" no body responded "where the hell did u take her too, what's going on with you guys, I'm going to find her myself" still nobody responded they were all looking at me as if I had run mad

"Chain her and take her to the dungeon!" Scarlet ordered the guards, the everything started making sense, I was dethroned, and I was now a palace slave that could be sold anytime, I tried standing up but fell back on my butt weakly, it hurts badly that olno one takes my side, I looked up and saw Alex and bianca holding hands looking at me badly and smirking, I was broken my heart felt numb I couldn't feel anything everything was just blank, I felt dead, scarlet had blinded my father, they're was a rumor about scarlet having dark powers and it was really true.

The guards came and dragged me harshly, since I was no longer a princess they kept pushing me to move and I did as ordered if I wanted to leave because hazel made me promise her I must live, I had to survive at all means I'm going to take revenge on everyone for what they did today, moving forward other palace maids were looking at me with pity others with disdain, others as if I was a mistake, I hated all this feelings and hoped I could gurge out their eyes one after the other I gritted my teeth and used my hair to cover my face.

We were passing by the maid quarters when I heard some whispers among the maids "look at what had happened to her, she deserved it I always hated her she was too proud" a maid said, another one added "keep quiet she can hear you" she said in s hushed tone "And do I look like I care if she hears me she's now a slave not even a maid, we even have higher rank than her, we can deal with her all we like and torture her", I was scared about her last words, I was really a weakbone, I dont have any practice experience, and I can't even hold a sword properly, I don't think I'll last a day here.

The dungeon was in a dark alley, and it looked scary, we passed through cells there are lots of ther slaves locked up in the cell, some wear wounded, some guards were having sex and beating up some it was scary, there was screams of pain and agony, they weren't given bed or blankets just inside they slept on cold floor, finally they reached her cell and they pushed her in harshly sending her to the cold floor, they sneered at her before they left, she cramped herself to one corner and rested her head on her knee, tears flowing out freely, her eyes becoming already too red from the pain in her heart, she breathed in and out slowly as if life was leaving her she wasn't thinking straight there was nothing to think about she knew that she would be killed soon.

After two days of being in the cell, she was given food that seemed like poo but she had no choice she had to sustain her strength, then a guard came in and led all the slaves out, they were going to do field work, other slaves were taken to other places to work inside the palace but she was taken to the farm, where they were instructed to use their hands to remove the weeds, she didn't have a choice, she took a look at the guards swords and swallowed her saliva, she quickly bent down and started work it has bearly been 1 hour she was already tired, all her hands were aching so badly and if they didn't finish their task they won't be given food it was getting dark already and she hadn't even eaten one meal, her hands are now swollen and red mixed with purple, her eyes was dizzy and blurry but she kept pushing on she has to be strong In other to survive, but she didn't she fainted on the spot immediately.

She opened her eyes and found herself in the cell her body still aching badly, after some few moments the guards came and said the king had ordered to see her, she didn't protest as much as she hated to see him tight then she just obeyed and followed quietly, on getting to the kings residence, she saw him sitting on his throne, she knelt immediately and bowed her hand, because that was expected of the slaves to do, the king used his hands to cover his nose "you haven't even spent a week there and u can't survive" I didn't say anything or respond, I just left him to blabber "considering you were once my daughter, I'll make u work as a slave with bianca, you'll do everything she wants since she's the soon to be princess and her brother the next crown prince" I opened my mouth slightly, as much as I hated to say this I think I'm grateful for this chores wouldn't be that hard than field work but I knew bianca would make life so difficult for me "Thank you, oh great king for your generosity" I said in a low tone and bowed, he just waved his hands and I moved out still bowing my head.
