her up with it. "Tell me what did you do to the king! What did you do to king Troy?!"

"Ah! I did nothing I swear, he was just kind to me, I have done nothing Ow!!" Rebecca pushed her into a corner and slammed her chamber door.

"You lie! Never, as long as I have been in this court have a man refused me, NEVER! All I know is that you show your face to the king one time, an odd night goes by and you have him completely besotted! What did you do Edwina, You let him play with your large bosom? Let him feel up your thick legs?!"

"Rebecca stop! I said I have done nothing!!" Lillian stumbled to her feet and blocked Rebecca's hands from slapping her. They struggled for a bit, Rebecca attempting to take her arms out of Lillian's grip , she pushed Lillian backwards onto her bed. Laying her weight on top of her she spit on Lillian's face. Majestic was now frantically flying around the room and cawing frighteningly.

"You are a whore! A hideous and wretched whore! The king has no interest in you, he will love me and you will see! You stay away from him you ignorant black fool!" Lillian pushed Rebecca off of her and watched her fall to the ground.

"I will not have you call me names and accuse me of lewd things Rebecca, now you calm down!" Rebecca sat up and scratched Lillian's legs with a sharp swipe. Her long nails cut deep into Lillian, causing Lillian to cry out and fall. Rebecca sat down on her and slapped her multiple times. Lillian pushed her off again and slapped her back once with a strange strength that she never knew she had. Rebecca flew a few feet away in the sudden force. She sat up, wiping blood off of her mouth. "Now you listen to me and you listen good. I have done nothing to the king, any feelings that he has exposed are his own doing and none of mine. If you think I will allow you to spit and abuse me any longer you are wrong!" Suddenly there was banging on her chamber door. She opened it out of breath and was forced backwards by many servants, sir Thomas and his entourage.

"What is the noise?!" Thomas roared.

"This girl, seduced by the devil pounced on me and beat me across my face!" Rebecca shrieked.

"What? No! No sire, she lies she lies!" Lillian pleaded

"You, Brown skin, violence is not tolerated here pack your things you are... Who let a bird in this room?!" Sir Thomas screamed as Majestic pecked at his ears and face, cawing madly. "Get that damned bird, Get it out of here!!" The room was all in disarray, Rebecca conned up her best fake crying, men were all over her room, chasing one bird that outwitted all of them, Sir Thomas was yelling and spitting onto Lillian's face. The noise carried loud and far, far enough to disturb the king, who was suddenly bursted through the door.

"What is the meaning of this madness?! I can hear your bickering all the way from my chamber!" He roared, Immediately the room grew quiet and everyone bowed low, especially Lillian. Even Majestic stopped cawing and perched herself on the king's shoulder. A bold bird she was, and for that King Troy instantly respected her. He looked at the bird and just shook his head, leaving her sitting on his shoulder. On the other hand, Rebecca's demeanor changed completely. When no one was looking she pulled the top of her dress down to show more cleavage, let her hair free out of the ponytail and rubbed the little blood on her lip down her face and chest. She pouted out her lip and tried to look as desperate as possible.

"Oh my lord, you are my hero. Please, oh please, protect me from her. I have done nothing wrong and she just attacked me!" Lillian was horrified. She ran and faced the king, pushing Thomas and all the men out the way. She looked at him in his eyes.

"My King, She came in here and accused me of awful things and pushed me. I was merely defending myself!"

"No my lord, She is lying, Look my lip bleeds! She had to have wanted me hurt if I bleed. She is standing and I am on the ground, how on earth could I attack her?" Rebecca got her knees and crawled to the kings leg, holding on to his leg trying to evoke pity. King Troy bent down and lifted her by her waist, helping her to her feet.

"Thomas, see that Lady Rebecca gets cleaned up and healed." King Troy said calmly after taking a deep breath.

"And the Brown skin, my lord? What should be her punishment? It is your call my Liege" The room grew quiet. Everyone stood still looking at the king, waiting for his decision. Lillian pleaded with her eyes, spilling the truth through her copper colored pupils. King Troy was staring right back at her, but what was going through his mind was the scene in his dream of them making love. He shook the thought and stared into her soul. He then felt the truth.

"There is nothing to be done, she defended herself, no one knows what has really gone on, there are no advocates to agree on one side. So no punishment will be carried out." Lillian relaxed

"My Lord! What is going on in your skull, this girl has you bewitched! Seek the real truth and see her for the devil she is!" Rebecca screamed.

"I agree my lord, ever since she has been here she has been nothing but trouble. She was probably the one causing blood on your floors on last night! She is a violent witch!" Lillian stood helplessly as many people called her out of her name, accused her of false things and she had no mercy listening to it. She continued to stare into the eyes of the king. She kept the hope that he would be the same man that gave her kindness and forgiveness. She began to cry. King Troy's heart fell at the sight of her tears.

"Why does he not say anything....I am ruined.." Lillian pushed through everyone and ran out her chamber door. She was sobbing uncontrollably, letting out all the built up emotions and frustrations. Her fears and her worries came out in tears. She ran down halls and halls, barefoot, holding her robe closed. In the room King Troy lost his cool.

"Now you all listen to me, I will tell you all the same thing I told a servant yesterday. Brown skinned or not she is a person of this court. I will not have no more of this bickering and violence in my manor. One more word and I will have you all charged with treason! Love Dammit! Love is what this kingdom was built on, Love is in the word of God and Love will be rather, you like it or not, the law in this court. Now all of you, get out of my sight!" He beckoned. Thomas, his men and Rebecca walked out of the room. Majestic flew out the window. King Troy was alone, he ran to the window and watched her fly away. Before he knew it he ran out of the room as well. "Lillian? Lillian!" It was a good thing he always explored the manor as a child, he ran down a hall, opening the secret staircase by moving a wall panel. He struggled down the tight staircases with his wide shoulders. He suddenly heard the sound of a woman crying. He moved faster and kicked down the door to the basement, the floor Lillian herself just got lost on. "Lillian Stop!" Lillian moved even faster. "I, your king, command you to stop!" He said breathlessly. Lillian froze in her tracts. King Troy walked up to her. "Lillian...."

"Yes my king, I am your humble servant, I am to do what ever you want me to do..."She turned around to face him, her eyes swollen red from crying. "Please do not believe them, I have done nothing it is Rebecca , She has aimed to make my life a hell on earth ever since I have gotten here."

"Be quiet Lillian, I have told you once I will tell you again. I am not one for you to be afraid of...I do not want you by frightened me." He said with a certain tenderness that sent a chill down Lillian's spine.

"I am just waiting, waiting for you to snap, my king. Have me...beheaded..or slap me across my face or ....force me access to my women parts." She sobbed.

"I would never..."

"That is what you say Lord Stawery, but you give me mixed signals. In the room you say nothing, yet out in private you tell me everything, You blessed me with a beautiful new apartment and yet you not care when men to trample all over it. And what is this talk of me having you bewitched? I have done noth-" And at that moment King Troy crushed his lips on Lillian's. She took a deep breath and tried to push him away but it grew softer...and more gentle. She let her hands fall to her sides, then wrapped them around his neck, forcing her to stand on the tops of her toes. King Troy put one of his strong hand the small of her back and the other higher. He pulled her body close to him, holding her tightly almost in the air, planting kisses on her lips like he never thought he could. They were so passionate and electrifyingly slow that she, overwhelmed, let a moan slip through her lips. King Troy trembled at the sound, inhaling her sweet breath. Lillian's knees went weak as she slowly started to fall to the ground. Feeling the slack, King Troy, in an almost heroic motion, reached down and stroked the backs of her thighs, gripping them as he slid her off her feet, lifting her up into his muscular chest. He looked down at her face with a look of love, she returned it as she was out of breath. She looked up into his eyes, the most beautiful combination of blue and sliver she had ever seen. She lifted her hand and stroked his smooth face, fingering the thin mustache on the top of his lips, then the small beard that was growing on his chin. Her heart slowed down as she stared at each feature in his face. She had never been kissed before. She put her hand behind his head and lifted her head to kiss him again, this time overwhelming him with passion. He moaned quietly into her mouth, tightening his grip on her body. After a moment, Lilian pulled back and looked down at the floor. King Troy slowly put her back down on the ground. She stood before him, her lips open but nothing coming out.

"The bird in your room...a pet of yours?" King Troy asked. Lillian smiled.

"I guess you can say that. More like a new friend, Majestic." The two grew quiet looking at each other. Lillian's robe was opened, exposing her chemise. King Troy stared at her body, though her chemise was unfitting he could still find the curves of her hips, the material hugging around her large bosom and her thick thighs standing bare before him. He lost his breath again as he looked at the marvel of her. Feeling his manhood raging to be set free, he looked up at the ceiling and stood with his
