 "My queen you are fine".lord abel said they were all shocked to see me.

 "Yes I am, I would like to apologize for my behaviour in last meeting".I said calmly. I knew they will pick the bait.

 "You were rude to us". Lord bash said calmly.

" And you even insulted us".lord Timothy said.

 "What has come over you, why are you being nice to us, has the king forsaken you seeing as he abandoned the matters of the state to attend to his wife". Prince clayford said mockingly. His words hurt me deeply ,but I wasn't going to be weak.

 "I don't care about the king, he is not worth my time".I lied.

"She is a pretentious snake".prince martins said.

 "Prince martins I know you are angry, but here I am apologizing for my mistake, I made cool drinks".I said smiling.as the servants brought the drinks and served it to each of them.

 "What if she poison us".prince Martins said.

 "I wouldn't do that".I said as I collected a glass and I drank it in one gulp.

 "This looks really nice".lord Timothy said smiling.

 "Let's drink it".Lord abel said and they drank it.

 "Wow this tastes nice".lord Timothy said happily as the servants took the glasses.

 "Who made this".prince Martins said.

"It's very refreshing".prince clayford said smiling.

 "Thanks for the compliment, it was made by me".I said smiling.

 "My queen I think I am beginning to like you".lord abel said smiling.

 "Now let's us begin".I said while glaring at all of them.

 "What's this".prince clayford said while holding his chest.

 "Since you all have decided to play dirty games,I have decided to learn from you....."

 "What did you put in our drinks".lord abel yelled in pain.

 "Don't interrupt me again, you will listen and I will speak".I said angrily.

 "How dare you insult us".lord Timothy said as he stood up,and he fell immediately.

 "I will advise that you be calm in this situation because the more you stress yourself,the more pain and stiffness you will feel".I said mockingly.It was a beautiful sight to see them in pain.

 "I told you that she was a liar".Prince Martin said.

 "How could you do this to us, don't you have respects for your elders".lord abel cried.and I laughed.

 "Did you say respect, because you all don't deserve it".I said.

 "Do you feel happy doing this, how can you be so cruel,I can't feel my body".lord bash cried.

 "I feel overjoyed my lords,I am not cruel am simply returning the favour, you all wanted to play dirty so this is it".I said angrily.

 "What's the meaning of this".lady Isabelle said angrily as she entered.

 "Bring your voice down we are having a meeting and what are you doing here".I said.

 "You are crossing your limit ariadne".she said while glaring at me as she stood in front of the throne.

 "I think you are doing the same too, you can't walk in here just like that I won't tolerate it".I said angrily.

 "Ariadne how dare you, who do you think you are, ariadne don't test my patience or els..."

 "Or else what lady Isabelle,I would like to see you try infact I dare you to do your worse if you can".I said angrily.

 "Mother please help us, I can't feel my body ".prince martins cried.

 "Lady Isabelle don't argue with her just come and help us".Iord abel cried.

 "Ariadne don't make enemies,it won't do you good".lady Isabelle said.

 "I never had friends anyways and l love dealing with my enemies, this meeting has ended".I said as I stood up.I wanted to leave but lady Isabelle held my arm.

 "Ariadne I am not done talking". Lady Isabelle said.

 "Don't you dare stop me again,I am the queen don't ever disrespect me".I said as I removed her hand from my arm and I left.

 "Mother do you see how she behaved". prince clayford cried.

 "Help us mother".prince Martins cried.

"How did this happen".lady Isabelle said.

 "She served us cool drinks, and it started". Lord Abel said.

 "I can't move".lord bash cried.

"I will call the doctor,I will be back". lady Isabelle said and left.

 I walked straight to milan's room. I knocked and entered.

 "Greetings my queen".she said smiling. She looked better but she was still in bed.

 "Greetings lady milan you look better".I said as I looked around, nathan wasn't there.

 "You look better".she said smiling.

"Take care of yourself,I have matters to attend to".I said.

My queen you need to be careful".she said while giving me a cold stare.

"Thank you".I said faking a smile and left.

I went back to Marie's room, changed into my armour and then I went back to the court room.

"Here comes the king".The spokesman said as Nathan entered the court room.

"Greetings my king".they all cried.

"Greetings my king".the doctor said.

"Greetings my king".lady Isabelle said .

"What's going on here". Nathan said worriedly.

"It's the queen,she added something to their drinks and they became like this".lady Isabelle said angrily and nathan laughed.

"My king this isn't funny,doctor explain to the king".lady Isabelle said.

"My king,I am unable to prescribe an antidote anything I give them worsens their condition,they have become very stiff".the doctor said in bow.

"My apologies for laughing but I must say the queen shouldn't have done this".Nathan said.

"She has made mockery of the royal court, my king you need to put the queen in check she even went as far as insulting you in front of the court".Lady Isabelle said.

"She wouldn't do that".Nathan said defensively.

"Here comes the queen".the spokesman said as I walked in.Nathan looked better and I felt relieved.

"I can see you all are complaining to the king about my actions".I said.

"I regret getting my son married to you".lady Isabelle said.

"I regret getting married to the king,I didn't come here to argue with you,I just wanted to check on the lords, I am leaving".I said. nathan looked shocked.

"You will not move an inch". Nathan yelled angrily as he stood up.

"Nathan you will not raise your voice at me".I said angrily,I was shocked by his reaction.

"You will address me as the king, you will not disrespect me and the court".Nathan said angrily.I wasn't going to let him insult me.

"You don't scare me,I have no respect for you neither this court,how can I have respect for a puppet king and a stupid court".I said mockingly.

"How dare you, insult the king".Lady Isabelle said angrily.

"Bring your voice down you old hag".I said while glaring at her.

"Ariadne you will apologize to me and the court".nathan said angrily.

"I will not and am leaving".I said while glaring at him.

"Guards seize her".Nathan said.

"You don't want any bloodshed do you".I said smiling.

"My king let it be,I can't stand the sight of blood". Lady Isabelle said.

"I am done with the meeting".Nathan said angrily and left.

"I am done".I said and left.

I went straight to the training camp,I was furious.I began to train fiercely,nathan Insulted me in front of the court.

"Queen ariadne".prince Humphrey said smiling.

"What are you doing here".I said while gasping for air as I sat on floor.I was so tired

"You promised to train me ". prince Humphrey said smiling.

"Humphrey please leave me alone".I said as I stood up.

"Ariadne".lydia said angrily as walked towards us.

"She looks scary". Humphrey said as he stood behind me.

"I will deal with her".I said reassuringly.

"How could you do this to my husband, have you no conscience". Lydia said angryily as she stood in front of me.

"As you can see I am busy".I said ignoring her.

"Ariadne,I have had enough of your madness, you have crossed your limits". Lydia said angryily.I clenched my fist to control my anger.

"Lydia I am in no mood to argue with you".I said calmly.

"Ariadne you don't deserve to be queen, just because you are a warrior you feel you can intimidate everyone".she said while pointing her finger at me.and I slapped her hand.

"Lydia I don't want to be queen,Infact I was forced her and you all hated me for no reason and went as far to try to kill me, now I am giving them a taste of their own medicine they will stay like that for a week ."I said angrily.

"Ariadne please help them,I am sorry for everything".she cried as she knelt down.

"Is this a joke, you just insulted her and now you are begging". Humphrey said.

"My queen am sorry,I cannot bare to see my husband in pain put yourself in my shoes if the kin...."

"Just stop it okay,he will be fine before dinner".I said calmly.I didn't want to imagine nathan in that kind of pain.
