Chapter 116 - Fight Me

Ignoring the question on my mind Nico went straight ahead and started our training.

It was tough and a hell of training, I wasn't smiling or playing around today.

It seems he was worried about something, I pulled myself together to move along with him.

He showed me a few moves and I master them quickly.

"Nancy you are doing good I'm impressed with how you are learning fast," Nico whispers after our training, and the first time in weeks since he spoke to me other than him training me.

"Thanks now will you tell me why you have been muff with me these past weeks?" I mumbled wiping the sweat off my face.

He gives me a cold shoulder, I immediately pick up the sign he wasn't going to say anything to me I better not waste my time.

I have been lying about the morning disappearance that I had to shift our training time to 4 am and by 8:30 to 9 we are done lucky that's the time grandma and Zenab will come out of their rooms.

For Baby I have him wrap around my fingertips he doesn't question me even though he has his suspicions of where I go every morning.

I exhaled loudly and turned to leave.

"Stop,!" Nico's voice boomed and I suddenly couldn't move.

"Now turn around and face me, fight me and if you win I will tell you," he said firmly.

Without waiting for an answer he walks towards me when he was at arm's reach, he attacked me fiercely from behind.

His hand clutches my shoulders as I swerved him fast. I can't believe I could see his moves even from behind.

Now I was facing him, I thought it was a joke but the look on his face didn't look like someone who was joking or playing around nor was he trying to train me but attack me.

Like a dream he hits me in the stomach as I land on the floor, his eyes look like that of someone who really means to harm me.

I forced myself off the floor clinching to my stomach, groaning as the pain shot through my body like lightning.

I stretched myself up to relieve the pain now standing angrily on my two feet.

"You want a fight bring it on, attacking your enemy from the back huh?" I said as a pile of anger filled me, now I was conscious of what I was doing.

I wanted him to pay and yes exact my revenge on him, using my imagination I brought him down on his knees.

I felt a hue of light around me, I was glowing as I walk closer to him.

"Pain,"

"Break left hand,"

Right hand," I whisper.

"Ouch, ouch," Nico cries in pain crawling on the floor.

I stood in front of him he tries to speak but I mute his lips, now his voice was sealed.

I slowly let the anger out of me and let go of Nico from my clutches.

"Oh mine, you win, you were quite merciless a while ago why are smile?" He pouts sitting down.

"Yes, you asked for it," I whimper.

"Now you have control over your powers and you can switch it on and off it any you wish," Nico compliments as a slight smile lit my face I was proud of myself.

I really work hard and slept less this past few weeks.

"But..."

"There is a but..?" I scoff.

"Yes you took your time, every second counts your enemy only needs a second to kill you," he mumbled.

"We will keep training now we can move to the next level of our training," he said walking away.

I thought we were going to call it a quit.

Oh well I need to go now before someone sees me. I quietly walk back to the twin's room, I suddenly felt the edge to see them.

Barbara and Barbie's eyes widened in surprise as they realized I was by their bedside when they woke up.

"Hello my princesses, why are you up so early in the morning?" I asked without taking my gaze away from their small lovely face, a smile forming on my lips as I lean closer to plant a kiss on their forehands.

Barbara lets out a little huff and continues to roll towards me for a hug.

"Mum dirt " Barbie whispered as she raised her brow and tilt her head to look at me.

"Oh really I was in the garden a while ago," I said as her gaze scrutinized mine.

"You were here?" a voice said as he walks into the room.

"Daddy!" The twins giggled when they saw Baby walk into the room.

"Yes, okay babies I'm going to take a shower, mummy will soon come back," I whispered making room for Baby to seat on the bed.

I plant a kiss on Baby's lips before leaving the room.

Zenab had changed Barbara's bracelet but she always keeps her hand on it and the sad look on her face a while ago got me worried.

According to Pana, the twin slept late last night and they are already awake, is the bracelet causing any harm to them? I thought.

I throw myself into the shower and took a quick bath, I came out and pick up the dress Pana left hanging on the wardrobe and wear it. She has the habit of picking my dresses for by the way she has excellent taste so I just let her do it.

knock, knock

Just then I heard a knock on the door, "Come in," I rumble sitting in front of the dressing mirror combing my hair already dressed up. I saw Zenab's reflection from the mirror.

"Hey, how are you?" Zenab greeted forcing a smile, his face looking worried as usual he only comes to my room when he is troubled.

"What is wrong?" I said turning to look at him, he stood there mute, "You should close the door behind you," I mumbled looking back in the mirror.

"Can we talk?" he said closing the door behind him.

"Yeah sure," I said yet he didn't utter a word.

"Well, would you start talking?" I said as he bows his head down, I smiled at his confused face.

"Ok, tell me then what is it?" I asked him without taking my eyes off his reflection in the mirror. "Oh wait, a second did Roses and her father cause another trouble?" I said calmly.

"No, I've not heard from her since the last time but that's not why I'm here," he let out a sigh.

"OK," that's a relief, "Oh wait, you're not here to make me marry some kind of prince, are you? let me tell you if that is the case believe it not happening," I said as my eyes widen now turning to face him as his lips curl up and his eyebrow raised.

"No Nancy, I'm not here for that either," he whimpered crossing his legs.

"Ok that's a good start, so what is it?" I ask with a smirk.

"It's been weeks and none of the maidens has taken a seed yet," Zainab said.

"Oh my dear brother, are you worried about that? relax it's just a couple of weeks and besides what is the rush? if you continue working hard at night, I'm sure in a couple of months there will be some good news yeah," I tease, I understand his worries, he is worried he might not be able to father a child and it is normal anyone desperate for a child goes through the same anxiety.

"I'm fulfilling my responsibilities okay, I'm forcing myself to go to bed with them every single night," he complains, I wish I could have Baby every single night but he has to travel from Zamuniland to the pack and forth.

"That should be fun, every night you will have a different girl by your side, to um warm your bed," I taunt followed by a peal of loud laughter. I couldn't help myself.

"Nancy, it's not funny, you think I'm happy doing this? I only want to be with one person," he whispers, "and the worse thing is I have to treat three of them equally, do you know how hard that is?" he puffed,

"Just imagine dealing with one woman, it's trouble as it is now I have to deal with three, should give the same kind of affection, love, and respect," he huff, I just let him pour his heart out.

"I can't love one more than the other, I can't be biased, it is frustrating," he let out a whimper.

"Alright brother, I understand just calm down, soon the one who gives birth first becomes the queen and the other two can just leave right?" I asked how his mood is lightening up.

"That will depend if they also conceive, I have to take all of them as my wives, and then the one who gives birth to a male child, will be the Queen and the other two will be my concubines, which ends at the same place, they're still my wives so I have to do my duties to the three of them equally," he explained now I'm happy I wasn't raised in here I can't even understand all that.

"I know this mustn't be easy for you but you already know this was coming right?"

"Yes I thought I was ready for my responsibility to be the king but apparently I'm not," he sobs.

"I'm not ready for this kind of life and their innocence pisses me off," he shrugs, oh boy his anger is increasing again, he complained getting up on his feet as he walks around, kicking stuff.

"Brother, I understand but to be honest with you those three girls are much better of an option compared to Rose," I muffed I know I just worsen his mood but I couldn't help it Roses will never be an option for me.

"She is the worst choice you ever made," I added combing my hair.

"Seriously Nancy and if I'm, to be honest as well, she's the only girl that makes me feel like a man, I like how she dares me and pushes me you know, I like every thrill she gives me," he is hopeless, his taste in women is impeccable, I can't believe my brother really fell for her and down flat.

"You like that devilish girl that much?" I had to ask.

"Yes, she is much better than those three girls, they always go like 'yes my lord' 'yes my prince' 'yes my crown prince' 'do you want me to bend this way, my lord' 'should I turn that way?' 'do you want this position?' 'Should I lift my leg?' 'do you like how I moan?' 'anything you sir my prince'  it's very frustrating, I can't live my life like," he said imitating their voices.

I didn't let him finish before I busted into a pearl of laughter, I couldn't help but laugh
