Knighted Again – Ch.30 | KT OLLA

THE words dropped. They dropped suddenly, sweeping Vickie off her feet.

‘Spill it, Vickie! What is it you’re staring at in Nile?’

The girl was caught off guard as the handsome dude looked in her eyes and spoke.

The young pair locked eyes for seconds, as Vickie’s heart raced away while her gaze was stuck.

She looked away at last, embarrassed a bit much.

‘Wh... what are you talking about?’

Nile gently raised himself, slid his feet back in his sandals and buckled it.

Then he sat in front of the girl, searching her eyes.

It was a piercing look that told Vickie her boy saw through her. That he peered in her soul.

‘Yes Vickie, you’ve been distracted lately, so I’ve been wondering why you are!

‘Thank God we’re finally done with the convocation event and the performance!

‘Then we’re through with the King. He’s become well, you know!

‘But why is Vickie staring at Nile? You know I caught you yesterday, too. And the other day!

‘What is it with Nile? Tell me everything!’

Vickie felt absolutely flustered that she wished she’d just sink into sand.

But Nile followed her eyes everywhere they turned, and there was nowhere she could hide.

Now the young lady decided to face the boy. Yet she stammered through her words again.

‘I... I don’t know what you’re talking about!’

Yes, Nile Wadibe got Victoria tripping right over. Then he caught her mid-air as her heart did a good pounding.

He spoke as he got up to his feet.

‘Well, if you insist you’ve got nothing to tell me, I’m sure I have something else to tell you!’

He bowed to put Victoria’s sandals back on. He went down on one knee to buckle the pair.

Then he got back up, leaned forward and stretched a hand to pull her up.

Vickie looked up at Nile as her pulse raced.

The dude nodded at her, so she braced up and placed her hand in his.

Nile leaned a little further and pulled her right up.

He cooed. ‘Go out wi’ me, Victoria… I like to date you!’

Vickie’s guards were down when this fell. So her grip suddenly went limp as it came slipping out of the manly grab.

She was dazed and almost got fazed completely. She tripped and went falling backwards.

Nile stood her shining knight that night. He stepped a foot into her, swept his hand round her waist and caught her there.

He left her staring wide as he bowed over her and searched her eyes.

Vickie knew she’d lost herself. Lost the tough hard self called Victoria.

She lay there in Nile’s hands like a girl that she was. It was her dream come true night.

Now Nile pulled Vickie up, drawing her so close she felt his breath.

He whispered, ‘You know a man can be blind at times!

‘I’ve liked you since our freshman year. But look at me calling this pretty girl just my friend!

‘You are my friend, now I love you to be my girlfriend!

‘Really, a guy can be blind at times!’

Victoria looked at him and felt touched. She welled up and felt like hugging him.

Her boy went on in the instant. ‘So, you see, I almost can’t wait for your answer! I’ll be too crushed if I lose you now that I like you!

‘I’ve spent a few years calling you my friend, my lady, my partner...

‘Vickie, will you please be my girlfriend now?!’

Vickie couldn’t believe that those words finally came.

She’d felt too embarrassed to talk just moments earlier. Now she didn’t want to keep her boy waiting.

She leapt on her inside when she gasped, ‘Yes! I mean my answer is yes!’

That moment was their prettiest in life.

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...
