The 7th Queen

“She killed your father”,
“She is nothing but a traitor” They complained,

His reply came swiftly short but accurate, much to the dismay of the court officials.

“ Yet......, I do not care, I will still marry her”.

Samaira Roberts, third daughter of the Honorable Duke of the north, Duke Alfred, catches the eye of the Old King of her Kingdom due to her outspoken nature.


She was a young lady of twenty years and he was a forty five year old king with six wives and eight grown up children to top it all.

Such alliances would have been frowned upon as soon as it came to light but he was the King of the kingdom and that made it all the more possible.


But beautiful Samaira would never allow such. She was not just beautiful but smart as well and in this world where only men were respected and approved, she planned to make a name for herself and marriage was seen as a big hinderance to that.



But due to her lack of power, she was pushed to the side and the marriage with the King persisted with her father the Duke being simply helpless in the situation.




But a sudden turn of events causes the King’s DEATH and an innocent Samaira was accused of being the cause and was also sentenced to death without a fair trial.


What will become of Samaira? A young lady who planned to make a name for herself in a generation were women were nothing but
tools in the eyes of men?


Death sentence was the worst punishment and especially if it was carried out on an innocent soul but the plot as always, was just getting interesting.


What about the sudden proposal of the King’s only son? To Marry his father’s supposed 7th wife.



A marriage between a Traitor and a Prince.... Now that was something to really frown upon.

Sam was wondering and at the same time she was walking behind Dino. Her eyes which were staring at his broad shaped back as he walked away, would widen at a sudden thought and then she would glare daggers at him once again for his indifference.


Dino felt her harsh gaze on him and to him it was much more better than her unending questions. Curiosity kills the cat they say but it was surely going to take a while before it kills this big cat of a lady.


He would have not bothered with her as long as she remained quiet but she kept on following him whichever hallway he turned.

He suddenly stopped and she stopped as well. He turned swiftly to stare at her, her brown eyes stared back at him with questioning brows.


" What?", they both chorused together, causing Dino to frown and Sam to glare harder.
