The sweet chirping of the birds playing happily in the nearby pond, could be heard all across the garden. The sun had freshly risen, emitting its fresh golden rays on the beautiful couple sleeping on the gra.s.s. Dressed in matching clothes, unaware of the surroundings, they both were sound asleep.
Rose was resting her head on Rhehan"s arm, right on top of his metallic bracelet. The sun rays were lightly caressing her beautiful long hair, making them s.h.i.+ne. Whereas the man"s other arm was hugging her waist tightly, as if she was his most treasured possession.
Unlike their serene sorroundings, their faces looked disturbed. There eyes flickered, as if they both were having a bad dream......
Between the beautiful River Nile and Red sea, was situated a large desert ruled by the mighty king Horus. Horus, the most powerful Egyptian king, was also known as The Venom King. He was indeed the gifted one!
Since childhood, he would play with snakes like his little toys. His biggest secret and power was hidden to the world, including his wife, that his body could absorb a snake"s venom easily like water.
His mighty castle was built by his millions of slaves and was named as The New Kingdom. The limestone castle was beautifully covered in the finest gold sheets, with various precious jems, engraved on its walls. The pyramid shaped gigantic castle from inside was covered entirely with beautiful hieroglyphs*, engraved in gold. The hundered acres of gigantic castle consisted of private rooms, pylons, leading to coutyards, halls, chapels, obelisks, gardens and smaller temples.
There were various natural hot springs, inside the castle, which could be used only by the king and his family for bathing. Amongst these hot springs, was the one spring, surrounded by four walls and palm trees, which was king"s favourite. n.o.body was allowed to enter these four walls without king"s permission, not even the queen. It was rumoured to be the king"s paradise, where various prost.i.tutes were brought to entertain him and bathe him. The queen had often seen, various naked girls, with tattooed b.r.e.a.s.t.s and colored lips, leaving the castle premises.
She had often heard the loud giggles of various women from inside the four walls. She would often try to sneek inside the four walls, but was always shoved off by the king"s loyal guards.
She was the aristrocratic egyptian queen born to a n.o.ble family. But her present-day status was just for name-sake. The mightly Egyptian queen was in reality lonely and sad, deprived of her husband"s love.
