Married to the arrogant king

Both people from Everton and other nations came to witness Carl’s wedding. They were all awestruck when Carl announced his wedding.

It even led to different questions…

“Did king Carl find princess Zara, why didn’t he announce it? If he didn’t find princess Zara, who then, is he getting married to…

could it be someone else?

A smirk played at the corner of Carl’s lip as he stood majestically in his wedding attire. He couldn’t wait to see the reaction of everyone, when they find out, that Zara didn’t get abducted.

Particularly King Arthur. Carl was anxious to see the look on his face when he gets to know, that he was played.

The whole crowd was in a state of distress and their anxiety grew even more as Zara still didn’t show up and they’ve been waiting for quite a while.

“Did King Carl bring us here to ridicule us?” the other Kings murmured amongst themselves.

A few minutes later, Zara showed up in her beautiful dress. She looked out of this world. She looked like a beauty goddess.

She was wearing a silver-colored attire, adorned with diamonds, which glittered due to the reflection of the sun. She also wore a silver crown and shoes go.

The crowd gasped. Words couldn’t describe the shock they felt. They were astounded and amazed at the same time.

“Princess Zara is here, why didn’t Carl say anything. When did he find her, who abducted her?

Zara’s parents and queen Catherine gave Carl questioning looks. Although they were happy, that Zara had been found, they still wanted answers.

“King Carl, what’s going on?” King Ragnar of Greenville nation asked.

“What could be going on besides my wedding,” Carl answered arrogantly, rolling his eyes.

King Ragnar was slightly embarrassed. Although he was upset by Carl’s reply, he didn’t say anything.

“King Carl, we all know princess Zara was abducted, why didn’t you tell us, that you found her?”

“I never told you princess Zara was abducted, it was you who decided that she was,” Carl muttered.

The crowd stared at him in confusion…

“But what about the rumors, and princess Zara’s disappearance?”

“It was you who chose to believe the rumors and as for Zara’s disappearance, it was my idea. I thought, it would be nice for her to have some time alone before the wedding.”

“King Carl, you should’ve explained things to us, why did you let us carry on with the idea that the princess was abducted?”

“Why should I, you wouldn’t have believed it anyway,” Carl retorted, groaning in annoyance.

He was getting tired of their endless questions. For Godsakes, it’s his wedding, not some questioning event.

The members of Carl’s council who were among the crowd bowed their heads in shame.

They vividly remember Carl telling them, that Zara didn’t get abducted, but they did not believe him.

“It was king Arthur’s men who spread the rumor,” someone yelled from the crowd.

“Yes, it was his right-hand man who told me about princess Zara’s abduction,” another person added.

The whole audience started to point fingers at King Arthur…

“I thought he came here to attend the wedding, but clearly, he didn’t. What kind of King allows his subjects to spread false rumors, maybe he did it because he’s incompetent, and can never be compared to Carl in anyway. Why did king Carl even send an invitation to such a shallow-minded king?”

King Arthur bowed his head in shame. He gnashed his teeth, and clenched his fist. His rage threatening to consume him and his blood was boiling. The humiliation was too much. He couldn’t even defend himself.

King Darian on the other hand gave Arthur an apologetic look, he couldn’t do anything to help. he didn’t want the crowd to also turn on him.

“Enough” Carl growled.

The whole crowd became mute, no one dared to alter a word.

“It’s my wedding, not some blabbering show. so could you honor it?”

The crowd kneeled before Carl as a sign of their apology, and the wedding began.

…

“King Carl of Everton do you take Princess of Azrael as your wife and queen?”

Carl sighed, thinking. I can’t believe, I’m marrying this annoying Princess.

After a few seconds, he replied “I do”

Zara scoffed. What took him so long to reply. She should be the one thinking. After all she was the one marrying such an arrogant person.

“Princess Zara of Azrael do you take king Carl of Everton as your husband and king.”

Zara rolled her eyes. “I do”

“I now pronounced you husband and wife, and also king and queen. You may now kiss the bride.”

Carl glanced at Zara with a smirk. He finally got a chance to have a taste of her lips.

“What is this arrogant king thinking, why is he staring at me like that? I hope he’s not planning to kiss me, I won’t spare him if he tries” Zara thought.

Carl ignored the warning stare Zara was giving him and went ahead to kiss her.

Zara gasped, and Carl took the opportunity to slide his tongue into her mouth. He sucked her tongue, then her lower lip.

The priest saw how Carl was ravishing Zara’s lip and immediately made the sign of the cross.

Clearing his throat he said. “King Carl, I think you should take this to somewhere private. I mean your chamber.”

Carl pulled away staring at Zara who looked flushed from the kiss.

“All hail king Carl, and queen Zara,” the crowd cheered.

Hail king Carl, hail queen Zara.

…

Gwen who also watched everything unfold was filled with rage. Carl did not even tell her about his plans.

How could he change so drastically? This was all Zara’s fault, she thought.

Before Zara came to Everton, he was close to her. He shared things with her…

When Carl kissed Zara passionately, she felt like stabbing Zara repeatedly until she died. Every inch of her, from her body to her soul burned with Jealously and hatred.

“It should be me, I should be his wife, I should be the queen,” Gwen said to herself, clenching her fist.

She angrily left the venue.

There was still hope as long as she was alive. She could still become Carl’s wife and queen. She reassured herself, not caring if he was married.

…

King Arthur did not waste any more time in Everton. Immediately after the wedding, he took his men and left Everton. The humiliation he received was too much.

He could not even hold his head high as he was leaving. Everyone pointed fingers at him.

He was angry, not only at Carl, but also at himself.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

He couldn’t believe he was so foolish to fall into Carl’s trap. Never in his life, has he been humiliated the way he was today.

“Carl you will surely pay for this. you didn’t just humiliate in front of just Everton, but the entire seven-nation…

“I promise to make you feel double of what I felt. I will always remember this humiliation and let it add to the fuel, that fires my fury…

until I take my revenge.”
