Knighted Again – Ch.14 | KT OLLA

SAMBA took a forlorn look at her watch. It was about 3 hours since Nile and Vickie had been with the king.

Samba had been waiting alone and thinking about the stars all of this time. So now she was starting to get a bit more anxious.

But Samba’s worry had fell this heavily on her because she was all beside herself and lonely.

She’d had so plenty of the view at sea – so plenty that she’d easily dream of waves on white sand that night.

She’d had too much of smiling at the views that she was forced to remember she was still single.

So the darling one was quite fed up with star and sea gazing, when she had a gorgeous surprise walk up to her.

The girl had looked to the doorways so many times that she couldn’t count.

Then she’d wished each of those times that the star kids would show up from there with a smile.

It was the pleasant gift that she’d craved as payback for her waiting. But she found something else she’d got missing.

Samba George raised her gaze from her watch now to glare at the doors. Only, this time, she cared less if the young ones walked in with smile.

But as she was dropping her head again when they weren’t there, she suddenly sighted a man walking in, and smiling.

So she stole a quick glance then thought his face looked familiar.

The dude strutted in and walked up to her.

So when the lady glared back at him wondering at the nerve he’d got to walk close, she just heard him croon down a manly tone...

She was a bit shaken by his spell of voice.

‘Oh c’mon, wipe that cloud off your face,’ he said. ‘The palace’ a safe zone after all!’

He added in a gentler voice. ‘Don’t worry; the stars will be back in no time.’

The girl’s defences fell right there.

She loosened up and freed her mind to think – as she realized that the man was talking a different thing, when she’d thought he’d seen beauty and wanted the chase.

So the young beauty stole a glance at him. Then she thought:

He’s so tall, and dark, and handsome. But who is this man that likes me now?

Well, he should be a staff here. He must’ve been watching me... liking me. Really liking me!

Now Samba tried to recall where he’d seen the dude before. Yet she was pretty sure she hadn’t met anyone as him.

The man was dressed in a woolen polo shirt with a cross shade of cream on coffee brown.

Then a pair of baggie shorts in coffee shade looked over a black pair of strappy for shods.

He had a black leather watch binding his wrist.

The suave looking gentleman was living his late 30’s with a youthful face that spelled 20.

Then he hadn’t got time to marry, so he walked up to Miss George and sat beside her.

He saw how hard the lady was trying to recall his face so he helped her.

‘I guess you can’t recall seeing me before. It’s the guy from the checkpoint...’

Samba made an effort.

The dude went again. ‘Well, the “big fan”—’

The girl caught on. ‘Oh, oh... you’re the one! But you really look... I think you look younger!’

‘Well, I guess that’s how I look outside work,’ the man laughed. ‘You know when you’re in uniform everyone looks the same.

‘I don’t actually work at the gates. I happen to head all of security. So I was sent to bring you up here.’

Samba liked his gentle candour, so she flowed along.

‘I must be mistaken to call you young! It’s a big man I’m sitting with here—look at me!’

‘Oh cut that!’ the man waved. ‘There’s no big young man in shorts these days! Everyone’s in suit!’

Samba broke in a big laugh. And the dude joined too.

Then when they stopped, he offered her a hand.

‘Well, I’m Collins.’

‘Samba’s the name,’ the lady smiled shaking his hand. ‘Nice seeing you again.’

Collins looked at his watch.

‘You must have been sitting here for long. Do you mind using a walk – I can take you around the whole place.’

‘Oh I don’t mind, Mr Collins. I’ll so like that.’

Collins stood and offered to lift her up.

‘How about you call me Collins? Ditch formalities, I like to be friends.’

Samba gazed up with weak eyes as she placed her hand in his. She looked at him for a second or two.

Who’s this guy that sweeps a girl off her feet in seconds?

Then she stuttered. ‘Ohh... Okay!’

Collins leaned forward and pulled her right up. For they both knew they were on to a great life—ahead.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 3 – Ch. 30 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

AT Gibeon King Solomon offered a huge sacrifice of a thousand cattle. That great sacrifice stirred up the heart of God, as the soul which offered it pleased Him much. So there in the smoking clouds, God appeared to Solomon—and it was a breathtaking moment to hear Him speak. For He asked a man to make a wish: He asked Solomon to state his need. ‘I have seen your heart and your offering, and I am pleased with you this day. ‘Therefore Son of David, ask of Me anything you please, and I shall give you whatever you say.’ Right there where the mortal man bowed, he knew this was a mighty offer. But his needs weren’t so many to place in a giant offer. He wanted to ask one thing that is mightier than power and riches. He wanted to own one thing that is chief among so many. So He answered, ‘O God of Israel, You have loved David and blessed him in his days. ‘And this grace, You have extended to me his son: You have set me on his throne. ‘Still here I am in the midst of the many people you have mad...

Here’s what God asks us to tell His people in Nigeria | KT OLLA

  Dear Readers, here is what God asks us to tell Nigeria, today the 1st of April, 2022 —  THE PROPHECY  — 1. The Lord said the sins and atrocities of Nigeria He can no longer ignore. He said He will now punish all lawlessness, unless we repent and change our ways. 2. He said it is for this sake that He has withdrawn the showers of rain, and made them really sparse. 3. God said unless Nigerians repent and turn from all lawlessness, there is coming a draught so severe that it will spark up very strange fires. 4. Yet so that God’s people will not suffer or be shaken, He asks us to tell you our readers and everyone who cares to listen, that you store and keep storing up water without a stop. He sternly instructed us all to do this. 5. God also commanded us to assure His people of His promise for this time. He said He will preserve the righteous during these trying times that will go on to try even the world. 6. He said several times over that the righteous will inherit t...

🛡️Safety Call! – KT OLLA

Running into a rock? The times are testing everywhere in the world. Outdoor is the heat of violence and crime; indoors are the worst cases of lack or need. Everything seemed like the end is here, when most people are just starting to live. But whether it is the beginning of the end, or nothing like it at all… well, all of us just wants to survive. We mean, really survive. Like running into a rock till the heat of God’s sun passes. For this too shall pass, we know. But then, a question sometimes bothers us – particularly at this time. And it is this one thing that we often ask: “Isn’t there something we can do to escape these harsh realities? Isn’t there something we can do at the very least?” The whole world had stayed home at a time, till we were all tired of hiding. But home stopped proving to be a good shelter those times. In fact, plagues opened locked doors and stole away our dear ones. We had thereafter fled outside, running from those things that plagued our earth. We hid in roc...
