Knighted Again – Ch.17 | KT OLLA

ZADEQUE was a kid that his father didn’t know he had. Yet from the day he found him and claimed him, he began to pitch him against his brother.

The kid was born to him from an affair the king had with a woman. It was when he desperately sought for a boy from his queen.

The secret love didn’t last a time when the woman fled. She fled when she realized she was pregnant. For the queen haunted her to death.

Zadeque’s mother went hidden through her pregnancy. But she died at her delivery when she gave birth to her baby boy.

So the baby’s grandmother took him and nursed him. He hid him till she would die.

Therefore the first son of the king lived hidden from the kingdom’s awareness. And in the meantime the palace had a boy. He was Maqwela.

Now when Zadeque’s grandma was about to die, she sent a letter to the king that he’d got a son. As she wouldn’t fear death, let alone the king.

This way, an unknown prince showed up in a palace way too obsessed with crown prince-hood. Then Chaka-Hulu pitched the fight between the two sons he’d got.

But then again, Zadeque cared so less about the throne. He just wanted to meet his father and live with him.

He also craved the outside world.

Yes, the new prince wanted to live free. Whatever the identity he got, he just only wanted freedom.

Still the opposite was what happened to the young kid. The king never showed him to the public. He kept his identity secret in all Cape Islands.

Prince Zadeque was given access to everything Chaka-Hulu. He was bestowed the rights accorded an heir, yet he wasn’t publicly revealed as one.

And Maqwela only met the public, not him.

Now Maqwela had been raised with the purpose of taking his father’s place when the king passed on. As he’d been Chaka-Hulu’s only son.

But when his brother appeared, the young lad didn’t think to save his place from the new boy. He was just glad he found company.

Even so, when the father pitched the clamour for his throne, Maqwela went from playing soft to playing hard, and then he’d go forth and back several times.

This was because Zadeque, too, was fighting fierce. And then, he’d relent, feeling really bad.

Then he’d pick up again, chasing him. And on and off he went in that struggle.

So, the two princes wrestled hard then played soft. They battled themselves then came together to cry.

They grew that way till they became men.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 2 – Ch. 20 | KT OLLA

DAVID had been reigning for about forty years already. And in those years of his reign in Israel, soldiers have stood and fallen for him. The warlord had conquered lands, conquered nations. He’d taken territories, subdued enemies. Yet as the monarch grew older and nations bowed to him, there remained no wars to fight; and so his valiant men had nothing doing. His soldiers settled in families and kept livestock. They became shepherds and keepers of vines. The great ones among them got involved in public duties and administration. Still, there were a few who didn’t change with the changing tide. And chief among them was Joab, commander of the army. No, it wasn’t that the man didn’t settle down with family or other civil matters. But Joab wasn’t quite settled enough when it came to his heart and attitude. The old man had been quite loyal to David through the long years. But ever since the time that wars were done with, he had lost his sense of purpose. Joab wasn’t all that interested in n...

Sons of the Flaming Throne 2 – Ch. 9 | KT OLLA

ABISHUM wasn’t done speaking. So she picked up on the matter as things were bound to change. She spoke: ‘See, it was a bedroom cry for Aleph. But not until the day things were shoved in her face… ‘And that day she gave up on hoping! ‘Well, what Aleph thought was the reason why Beth couldn’t marry, was different from what it was with people. ‘She used to think it was because there was no man in her house to ask the daughter from. As is our customary practice in Israel.  ‘But when a drunken man shoved it in her face one night, it hurt her too much what people say. ‘“No one will marry your daughter, woman! Why will anyone do? When death hides in her bosom like it hid in yours. Or why did your husband die? ‘“Look, if you don’t know it – your family is cursed! You only have one child in a nation of plenty. ‘“God has prospered Israel with many children like the sea sand. But what do your family bear? Only one! ‘“So, who will want your cursed daughter for his son to love? You really don’t...

Sons Of The Flaming Throne – Ch.50 (Final Episode) | KT OLLA

PRINCE S’alom was beaten once; and then a second time. It was by two things that baffle the mind. For not only was he shocked that his men kept running for their lives. As they fled when they were chased past; and he wished they could stop to help. But now he was even more dazed when he saw that his father’s men left him hanging. He realized that those boys weren’t sent to kill him. Yes, the Third One knew this from the start. That if David had wanted him dead, he’d have been long dead and buried. Now it was clear that he’d been taking advantage of the just man’s goodwill. And this he knew himself. The prince faced this truth; so it knocked him off that David was still being kind. No, he’d so taken things for granted. Therefore, it happened that one of the chasers who ran past returned to find Joab when he saw the prince hanging. He told the captain what he saw and assured him the prince wasn’t dead. Now when the general saw that the boy didn’t kill him, he went all mad and furious. ‘W...
