MRS RÓDRÍGUÉZ - EPISODE 46 AND 47

TEXAS CITY,(United States of America)

“We still got no lead on your daughter sir. We are doing our best”.

“Try everything you can. I need to know where she is. “… His voice broke out in cold sheds.

Chris nodded and made his way out of the office.

Mr Wells let out a sharp sigh.
“Where are you?”..

He said. Staring out the window.

***

Audrielle dressed into a nice outfit. Her hair fell over her shoulder revealing it’s thick, dark beauty.
She has the darkest hair in the palace.

She paced out of the room and went in search of the prince. She needed to tell him where she’s headed.

She has to go pay her mother and Simone, her little brother a visit. It’s been long.

“His majesty is in a meeting with the counsels”..
That was the response she got from one of the guards assigned to guard the entrance of the courtroom.

A meeting with the counsels. That must be important then.

Audrielle smiled” just in case he requests my presence, tell him I’m off to see my mother, ”

With that, she left.

She walked over to Tarsia’s chamber and insisted she go with her.

” Is the prince aware?..”

“He’s in a meeting with the counsels. Hopefully, We’ll be back before he’s done.”

Tarsia nodded and followed behind.
There was a need to use a carriage. This was a visit to her mother, she has to go without a disguise.

They ascended the Royal steed and took off.

Alex smiled watching them from the window. This is just what she wanted.
Thanks to the princess, she just helped hasten her plans.

***

Sally took a piece of paper and scribbled some words on it with a feather ink.

She wrote half way and let out a slight groan. She picked the sheet and folded into a ball. Throwing it by the side of her bed.

She took out another sheet and started a new write up.

Tonight, she goes to the woods to meet Mario. She needs to end things with him. She can no longer do this. She’ll deny ever knowing a thing… There’s nothing more attached to their union except the debt the princess owes the Royal household.

Nothing else.

***

They arrived at there in not less than an hour.

Rachel, her mother sighted the Royal carriage from afar and felt delighted cause she knew it was her daughter.

She welcomed them warm heartedly and immediately fixed a quick meal.

Simone couldn’t stop himself. He was all over audrielle like a lad. He has missed her so much.

They had meal together. A meal which brought back sweet old memories.

After the meal, Tarsia’ partnered Simone in a game and Rachel saw that as an opportunity to have a private talk with her daughter.

She led her daughter to one of the rooms for some privacy, before initiating a conversation.

“How has life been in the palace?..”

“You mean as a married woman?.. what can I say, it’s been good”.. audrielle chuckled.

“Come sit here”… She led her to a dressing mirror.

Audrielle obeyed.

Rachel picked a brush and combed her neat. ” I miss doing this”.. she admitted.

“Me too mother. I miss my old life”..

Rachel paused.
Then, continued after a few seconds..” things hasn’t been going well for you, has it?”

Audrielle shook her head. “It’s worse than I thought.. ”

Rachel smiled. ” Why?… Is it that serious?”

“Yes. Serious to an extent that he avoids me And, …. and doesn’t touch me”
The last part caused a bitter feeling on her tongue.

“What?. Why?. He hasn’t touched you?… ” Rachel was a awfully suprised.

“This Union was clearly out of his will and interest. What do you expect mother?”

“Well it’s high time he does. There has to be consumation dearling. There is no much time to waste..”

Audrielle arched a brow.

She could sight the worry on her mother’s face through the mirror before her

“What do you mean, no time?”..

Rachel took a deep breath..

” What I mean is… There is no time to waste. Everything has it’s prime.. you need to Tame your man Audrielle. Men aren’t always as we see them.
Men are like materials, we cut them to our very own taste., Tame your better half”

The advice sending cold chills to her spine.
Coming from her mother, she thinks this impossible.
How does she do that?
She stared up at her mother with a tear filled eyes.

“Yes mother”

“Good, child” Madam Damiene, the late buttler’s wife wiped off the tear from her daughter’s face with her dress.

“Tame your man. No one will do that for you” she whispered.

Audrielle felt Blank.

How does she go about this?
How can she tame a man who has no feeling in his heart for her? A man who is as hard as a rock towards her.

How will she do this.?

***

The council meeting ended a few hours later.
His eyes searched for her in the Chambers, but he. Didn’t see her. Did she go out again?

His heart squeezed in an odd manner.

He called unto Leith and demanded his presence.

” The princess has gone out,.. I hope you’re aware?” He asked.. a bit cold in his thick voice, staring out the window.

It was getting late already. She hasn’t returned.

“I’m aware, my Lord.” Leith bowed his head.

Balls of sweat trickled down his head as he stood before his prince.

“I want you to tell me what you know. ”

The prince stated, not sparing him a glance.

***

Audrielle returned back to the palace a little late than expected. Good thing, she left with the Royal carriage. She had a lengthy talk with her mother. She would have loved to spend the night over. But it didn’t occur well to her cause she figured the prince has to give his consent to that first.

She walked back into her Chambers and didn’t notice the figure standing by the window till she heard a cold raging voice.

“Who is he?”

Audrielle flinched,.. she almost jumped out her skin. His voice was deep and scary.

“My… P.prince… I didn’t notice your presence” she tried to catch her breath.

Antonio took steady but quick steps towards her and she could no doubt see the rage in his eyes.

“You heard me… Don’t make me force his name out of your lips .”
He sounded intimidating.

Audrielle gasped.

What has she done wrong and who’s this he, he’s talking about?..

” I have no idea what you’re talking about , your highness…” Her voice came out a bit shaken.

” Don’t make me sound like a fool, princess. The place you go every day.. the man you go to pay a visit.. what’s his name?..”

Audrielle arched a brow.
Did he mean Francis?.. the pranking magician that displays everyday at the market square.? …
She only goes there to watch his pranks,.. at Least to waste a little time.

“He’s only a prankster. I go there most times to feel a little better and Happy.”..

His hands fisted into a ball. His chiseled face clenched the more.

He drew his hand closer and caressed her hair.
That alone shivered Audrielle.
“Happy?.. he makes you happy?..what else does he do apart from making you happy?.. he touches you, right…?.. he run his fingers down your hair and..

“What do you mean,.. Francis is just someone who performs at the market square?..”

“Francis, that’s his name”..
He withdrew his hand from her and stepped back a little.

He has never felt this rage for anything or anyone before. And right now, he couldn’t control himself.

“Take off your clothes princess, Don’t make me repeat myself”..

He ordered.

Audrielle wasn’t hearing clearly, was she?

“What?”.. it came out from her like a whisper.

“There shall be a consumation tonight. ” He stated.
His cold eyes raked her body.

Audrielle shivered.
