Chapter 9
“But I
don’t want to marry him!” Princess Desert Rose wailed.
Her older
sister, Princess Lily, shook her head. “I do not like it either, but you don’t
see me complaining like a child, do you?”
Desert Rose
glared. “He’s dangerous!”
“Of course
he is! He’s Pharaoh! But we have to do this for our country!”
Desert Rose
burst into loud, noisy tears. Lily growled and the servants hastily began
trying to get her to stop.
“The
Wedding is in a few hours, our countries are at peace, and you’re acting like a
child!” She snapped. “Now stop it!”
Lily
herself was already dressed in enough gold and lapis lazuli and emerald to fund
a military campaign. A cough came from the door.
High
Priestess Aishizu peered inside. “Are you two decent?”
“Yes, come
in.” Lily told her.
“Are you
worried?” The Priestess’s eyes were clear and calm. “The Tauk has shown nothing
of danger in the wedding ceremony.”
“I don’t
care! I don’t want to get married!” Rose wailed.
“Desert
Rose!” Lily snapped. “I’m so sorry, High Priestess.”
Aishizu
gave a short laugh. “It is all right, future Queen.” The second part of her
statement was left unsaid. Desert Rose, being younger, would of course not be
the Queen, but only a Concubine…
“Did you
need something?”
Aishizu
shook her head. “Be careful.” Was all she said, before she bowed and exited the
room. Lily frowned.
What…?
“Are you
worried?”
“No.” Yami
said calmly as Mahaado brushed his hair. It felt so nice… he wasn’t
dressed for the wedding yet, but it mattered little. Everything was already
laid out. It wouldn’t take long.
Mahaado’s
hands slipped his bracelets and bracers on his arms, and the anklets on his
legs. Gold glittered on tanned skin.
“Are they
poisoned?”
“Not with
poison, no.” Mahaado sounded apologetic. “They’re laced with a mild sleeping
spell. It will activate should you find yourself in danger.”
“I
understand. Thank you, Mahaado.”
“It is my
pleasure to serve you, my Pharaoh.”
Yami’s
smile widened as he felt Mahaado’s eyes upon him. “Then please do, my dear
Spellcaster…”
Mahaado’s
eyes glittered as he complied, his Pharaoh’s eyes glazing over in pleasure.
The wedding
went off without a hitch. The procession wound through the streets as the
people cheered and shouted praise to their Pharaoh and now his wives. Desert
Rose scowled as she followed. Just because she was younger, she was reduced to
the stage of a lesser wife. It wasn’t fair! Why did Pharaoh have to marry her
anyways?
Oh well. At
least this way she got to stay with Lily, instead of going home alone and
getting married to someone else. And maybe it wouldn’t be so bad…
The
ceremonies concluded, it was on to feasting, and dancing, and finally, the
Pharaoh escorted Lily to the bridal chamber.
Desert Rose
let a sigh of relief escape her lips. Phew. It looked like she was safe for
now. She wouldn’t want her secret to be found out so soon.
She went to
go walk in the gardens.
She found a
girl there, near her age, with bright eyes and a strange shell-topped wand.
“Hello.”
“Hi! I’m Mana!”
“I’m Desert
Rose.”
The girl’s
eyes widened and she hurriedly bowed. Desert Rose scowled. Stupid commoners.
She was about to make another angry comment when a voice cut through her
thoughts.
“Mana,
where are you?”
The girl
dove into a bush as a man came around the corner. Rose vaguely recognized him
as one of the High Priests. It was kind of obvious, thanks to the hunk of gold
around his neck.
The Priest
scowled mock-affronted as the pointers of the Sennen Ring all lifted up and
pointed in one direction. “Mana… I know you’re in that bush. Did you skip your
reading lesson again today?”
“No I
didn’t Teacher-sama!” The girl’s head popped out of the bush. “I can do it!
See!” She pointed at a flower, and it immediately turned a blinding shade of
green.
Mahaado
resisted the urge to smack his forehead. He barely succeeded.
“Oops?”
Mana said sheepishly.
“Mana, the
spell I taught you was supposed to turn a flower into another flower. I wanted
a lotus.”
The bright
green jasmine seemed to wilt.
“I’m sorry
Teacher-sama!”
“She’s your
apprentice?” Desert Rose laughed. “No wonder Egypt’s magicians are terrible!”
Mahaado
scowled faintly, but Mana grabbed her clamshell wand and was about to hit the
girl with it when she noticed again that it was one of Prince – Pharaoh’s
concubines. Still!
“Teacher-sama
is very powerful!”
“Too bad
he’s just wasting his time with you then!”
Mana’s
expression became even more furious. “What did you say?” She demanded.
“Now, now.”
Mahaado intervened smoothly. “My apprentice meant no offense, my queen.”
Only a very observant ear could have picked up the subtle twist on her title.
“And if you would enjoy magic lessons, my Queen, I shall make inquiries as to
your ability.”
“That’s
better.” Desert Rose said approvingly, and stalked off.
Mana
squirmed out of Mahaado’s grip after the girl left. “But Teacher-sama…”
“Mana. Even
if she is… impolite, she is queen, and you should respect her.”
“I don’t
see why Pharaoh had to marry her.” Mana muttered.
Mahaado
patted her on the shoulder. “Do not worry, my apprentice.”
“But she’s
so mean!”
“I know.
She shall have many difficult lessons to learn in court. She is not of as high
a station as she presumes. But she is still higher than you.”
Mana
sighed. “Do you think I’m a bad student, Teacher-sama?”
“I wish you
would work harder on your magic studies, but no.”
“Good.”
Mana smiled as she hugged him and ran off.
