The Beast Beauty's
CHAPTER 44. The Traitors
Arumeey hurried away leaving the second prince, the second prince chasing after him while asking him how he was.
"Miss, are you okay?" he asked as he walked quickly after Arumeey who ran small avoiding him.
Prince Zhumma was made curious about the girl who had stayed away from him.
"Miss!" call him again
Arumeey continued walking and ignored the call of prince Zhumma, the tenth king-to-be.
"Your Majesty, who are you after?" ask his personal bodyguard who saw the strange attitude of prince Zhumma
"That girl. I have never seen him" said Prince Zhumma
"You mean that ugly girl who just passed by?" ask the prince's second personal guard
Prince Zhumma looked at him with a stern look as if he did not like it when his personal bodyguard called the girl ugly
"Sorry Your Majesty" the second prince's personal bodyguard noticed the dislike of Prince Zhumma.
"If you're pleased, I'll investigate the girl" he continued
"No need! We'd better get back to the palace" prince Zhumma ordered.
Prince Zhumma and his personal bodyguard Shunio immediately returned to the palace. Arriving at his residence, prince Zhumma was greeted by the chief physician of the palace.
"Your Majesty. You have returned, for your security, you should not leave the palace until your coronation is carried out" said the head of the palace healer
"There's an urgent matter that I need to settle auntie. You don't worry. My brother's death can't be allowed to pass. I must know the mastermind behind his death" Prince Zhumma said
The head of the palace physician gulped his saliva at the second prince's words.
"Of course, Your Majesty. That traitorous girl should be caught and hung on the gallows!" said the head of the palace physician with glaring eyes.
The second prince looked at the head of the palace healer with an unhappy look.
"You should leave immediately, aunt. I am very tired and need rest" said prince Zhumma with the intention of expelling the head of the palace healer.
"All right, Your Majesty. Have a good rest" said the head physician of the palace and left the residence of the second prince.
The second prince sat down at his resting place. A servant came and brought the tea of peace of soul and poured it into a small cup engraved with kwasoh flowers.
After pouring the tea, the servant passed away leaving prince Zhumma with a head full of complicated thoughts.
"Arumeey, where are you right now? I'm sure you're innocent. I would do anything to find out the truth about my brother's death." he muttered as he held a warm teacup.
Longing churned in his chest, prince Zhumma did not think of the girl for a day. The feeling of regret and longing was mixed in his heart.

Arumeey soon left the city of Taraka with his horse. All the clothes and groceries were wrapped neatly inside the storage bag.
After passing through the forest, Arumeey finally arrived at a stretch of golden-colored cinaga grass in the light of twilight. His gaze was blank, Arumeey was still overwhelmed with grief due to an accidental encounter with prince Zhumma.
Arriving at home, Arumeey immediately entered and ignored the king of Shaka who was seen sitting waiting for his presence.
"Hey. Miss, what's wrong with you?" said the king of Shaka who saw Arumeey's cold attitude
"I'm so tired. I'll see you later" Arumeey said as she walked into her room.
King Shaka only fell silent when ignored like that, his whole life only this time he was ignored by a girl who did not even have any beauty at all.
Arumeey slammed her body into her bed and tried to close her eyes. All the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Arumeey opened his eyes again because he could not close them. A moment later he got up from his bed and walked out. The door to his room is open.
King Shaka, who was lying down, got up and sat when he saw the door of Arumeey's room open. Arumeey walked slowly towards the king of Shaka who was sitting waiting for news from him.
"You look like a heartbroken girl" said King Shaka
Arumeey looked up at the words of King Shaka. Arumeey felt that what he said had a point.
The incompetent King Shaka was unable to catch the parcel, so the parcel hit the wound on his stomach.
"Akhh" cried king Shaka in pain
"You want to kill me?" he said angry
"You're like a child, catching that alone you can't afford. How are you going to deal with those traitors!" arumeey said grumpily.
"You!"
"Open that package. I bought clothes for you. Hopefully it suits you" said Arumeey did not want to make things worse.
King Shaka also did not seem to want to argue with Arumeey, he obeyed the girl and undid the bundle of clothes.
"Close your eyes, I want to wear them" the king of Shaka ordered.
Arumeey got up and walked into the kitchen. He prepared dinner with the groceries he bought from Taraka city market. After finishing it, Arumeey immediately took it to the living room. King Shaka has been wearing clothes that Arumeey bought.
"I recorded it into your debt book" he said ketus
"Based on a cunning girl." replied king Shaka
The two of them began to eat dinner with a simple meal.
"The coronation of the tenth king will be carried out immediately" Arumeey said between dinner
"What's? You're not kidding?" ask king Shaka not to believe
"Prince Zhumma will soon occupy the throne" Arumeey continued
King Shaka looks to lose his appetite. He put the plate.
"You want to cry? Lamenting your miserable fate by not having an appetite" said Arumeey annoyed, seeing king Shaka put his plate down.
King Shaka did not greet Arumeey.
"You have to recover and train hard, otherwise you have to get out of here and face your death" Arumeey said
King Shaka clenched his hand, but what Arumeey said was true. He should recover soon. King Shaka took back his plate and finished his meal.
The night passed with three hearts filled with sorrow.
..............
The chief physician of the palace.
"Are you aware of the girl's whereabouts?" ask him to Yungsha's bodyguard
"I've spread the messenger to all corners of the country mistress, there has been no news about the whereabouts of the girl" he replied.
"Find the girl wherever she is, don't let her live!" said the head of the palace physician with his eyes burning with flame
"I will do my best madam" replied Yungsha's bodyguard
"What about King Shaka's body?" ask again
"Some of my men told me that there was someone who said there were some dogs fighting over the carcass around where the king of Shaka was dying" replied the bodyguard of Yungsha, the Shaka king's personal bodyguard.
"Continue the search for the girl. Namu be careful with prince Zhumma, he will not let the girl suffer out there, I'm sure he is also planning something" said the palace chief healer
"Good mistress"
