The Queen Of Time
Pain In The Ass (Twenty Eight)

        Tonight Tiffany is officially out of the Khronos royal dungeon. Since putting his feet

in the palace of Khronos, Tiffany was unceasingly amazed as she shed tears as she was finally able to get out of the filthy prison. Calistha who had been with him since then also felt so happy, because he could free Tiffany from the tyrannical nature of Aiden which was very arbitrary. When he gets out of prison, the first thing Calistha does is take Tiffany to her room to clean up. During his time in prison, Tiffany never had a chance to clean up. Even when he wanted to urinate or defecate, Tiffany had to beg the guards first so that he was allowed to use the prison toilet which was also equally dirty. Life in prison is like nothing

life of an animal. And it was really very heartbreaking for Tiffany

who's used to living clean in Diamond kingdom.

        "Tiffany, you can use all my clothes as you like. After this you'll stay in this room with me, so just assume all these things are your own."

        Calistha showed her one dress, which Aiden gave to Tiffany. He thought Aiden would have no objection if Tiffany was also wearing her gowns. After all, the dresses are too many, so sometimes they do not have time to use them.

        "Thank you so much Calistha, you're so nice. Then I ask permission to use your bathtub to clean myself up. It's been a long time since I've bathed and cleaned myself, so you can see that my body is very dirty and smelly." Tiffany said with a disgusted look on her own. Calistha nodded her head gently as she led Tiffany into her bathroom.

        While Tiffany was cleaning herself up, Calistha began to sit herself in front of the fireplace

to read a history book he took from Aiden's private room. When he was in Aiden's private room, his eyes accidentally saw the large pile of books neatly arranged in the giant shelves that filled the corners of Aiden's room. Seeing the many piles of books that are very tempting, Calistha felt sparkling, and he immediately asked permission for Aiden to borrow some books to read. And of course, Aiden immediately allowed him to read all his books that he rarely touched after he was busy being king.

        Calistha began to read the first leaf of the book entitled the origin of the kingdom of Chronos. One by one the long sentences were read by Calistha carefully. From the book, Calistha can tell if in the past the kingdom of Khronos was just a vast expanse of hills with rivers and large trees growing in them. Then, a prince who came from the western kingdom accidentally found a very fertile location, until finally the prince felt interested in establishing a kingdom there. Ten months since the kingdom was established, the prince had very few people and also soldiers. His newly established kingdom was really reaping difficulties in gathering a number of residents and soldiers. But thanks to the persistence of the prince, he was able to develop his kingdom into a successful great empire. The first kingdom that the young prince could conquer was a small kingdom located in the southwest of the kingdom of Chronos. But, even though the prince had managed to seize the kingdom, the prince did not

realizing that the crown prince of the kingdom has managed to escape from

the kingdom was with a grudge in its heart.

        "The revenge will bring destruction."

         Calistha nodded in shock when suddenly Aiden had been beside her while wrapping his arms around her

on his small shoulder. The man took a quick glance at the book Calistha read while observing Calistha's still faithful face showing her face of surprise before him.

        "The crown prince then established his own kingdom at the head of the river Broke and then built up the strength to avenge the evil deeds of my ancestors who had ravaged his kingdom."

        "Aiden, what are you doing here? Wait, did you just say about the Broke River? That river..."

        "The river is the river that runs along the kingdom of Kairos. Actually the kingdom of Chronos

and Kairos has been hostile for a long time. More precisely because of a grudge that continues to spawn hatred. Then when my parents took the throne of the kingdom of Chronos, they made a plea to your parents that they forgive each other and live in peace without any grudges. At first your parents agreed, your father openly welcomed my father's proposal with a clean face and open arms. But, it turned out that it was just a false promise. Your father betrayed my father with

sending curses to me to slowly destroy my kingdom, then your father also killed my parents when they came to the kingdom of Khronos to ask you to be my partner. Revenge is very hard to stop. His chain eyes would continue to spin like a vicious circle that would be extremely difficult to break. Now that you know everything, will you turn to hate me and follow in the footsteps of your parents? Forgive me for killing both of your parents back then, but I really had no other way but to kill them because they had ruined my life first. Can you imagine how my life was ruined and ruined after my parents died? There was corruption and chaos everywhere. Rebellions also continued to emerge in turn to overthrow my position as crown prince. At that time I even thought about dying instead of having to live with this endless torment. Unfortunately, I could not die easily. Every time I draw a silver sword into my heart, the next day I will wake up in my bed intact. I finally realized one thing, that I was destined to become a unifier for two great empires that had been in conflict for many years. I then began to formulate my own government firmly and without any mercy. Children or adults, their position is the same. If they do wrong, then I will directly punish them according to the weight of their mistakes. Slowly the situation in my kingdom began to improve. The number of rebels and corrupt officials is decreasing day by day and in the end they are all completely gone from my kingdom. My life from the beginning was very difficult Cals, so please understand with my attitude that may not be compatible with you. The curse and strange life have turned me into such a terrible monster, me..."

        Suddenly Calistha immediately hugged Aiden's body tightly until Aiden almost fell backward, if he does not swiftly hold the small body that has now been perfectly attached to his body.

        "I understand now. Please forgive my parents attitude in the past. I promise I won't be as cruel as them. Although I originally held a grudge against you, but now that grudge has been lost. I realize you're not the bad guy who's gonna kill all those innocent people for no reason. All your actions must have their own reasons, so please forgive me. After this I will strive to be a good queen and future wife for you. We must make peace and erase the dark history of our kingdom. Would you give me a chance?"

        Aiden let go of his embrace to Calistha while smiling gently. A gentle smile that was truly sincere to Aiden looked more humane and more handsome. During this time Aiden's face was always decorated with cloudy clouds that always made him look cruel and terrible. But, when Aiden had smiled like that, he really looked like a handsome guy in general who was kind.

        "There is always a chance for you dear, we will prove to our ancestors that the kingdoms of Chronos and Kairos can unite to give birth to greater glory."

        "Yes, I agree with you. We will make our ancestors proud of us." said Calistha sure followed by pangutan friendly lips with Aiden lips. The two humans channeled their love each other without realizing the presence of Tiffany who had heard all their talk since.

        "Based on traitors, I will destroy you first before you can unite with that rotten king Calistha." muttered Tiffany full of anger and hatred.

        Night time when all

the palace dwellers were sleeping with their own dreams, Spencer seemed to sneak out of his room to see Gazelle in prison. For two days Spencer had been sneaking into the dungeon to observe Gazelle's condition there. Sometimes while watching Gazelle from a distance, Spencer seems to feel pity and he wants to help Gazelle get out of that terrible prison, but when his mind drifts on Aiden, he finds himself, then his intention would soon disappear by itself, replaced by an overwhelming feeling of guilt for Aiden. But sometimes he feels worried about his feelings that are oscillating, he is afraid that someday his feelings will turn to attack him and weaken him.

        "Argghh, my leg."

        Spencer faintly heard a restrained moan coming from one of the prison cells. With quick steps, Spencer began to descend one by one the stone steps with a feeling of anxiety.

        "Gazelle, are you okay?" spencer asked worriedly when he had been in front of Gazelle's holding cell. The woman was currently groaning restrained at the condition of her injured leg. Seeing Gazelle's miserable condition like that, made Spencer feel like breaking the bars and bringing Gazelle out of the dirty and dirty prison. But, he can't. He swore an oath before all the people of Chronos and Aiden that his life would be spent in the service of the kingdom of Chronos, that means his whole soul and body are bound to this kingdom and he must not violate it at all. If he violates it, then he must be prepared for the consequences that he will get, namely the death penalty and his entire family will be expelled from the kingdom of Chronos dishonorably.

        "Sspencer, help me. My leg's arghh, it hurts. Please get me out of here." - Gazelle said in a terrible condition on the floor. Frustrated, Spencer is only able to extend his hands full of pleas to Gazelle because the man is unable to get her out of the prison.

        "I'm sorry Gazelle, I can't. But, I will definitely find a way to get you out of here, so please be patient."

        "Basic fucking guy! Why would he come here if he couldn't help me and get me out of this filthy prison. It's better for him to die than to live in this kingdom but he can't help me get out of here." Gazelle's mind is upset. The woman then immediately turned her back to Spencer with an overwhelming feeling of anger and arrogance. Tomorrow if Tiffany comes to visit her, then she will hold the woman accountable for her unlucky fate here.

        "Gazelle, wait a minute, I'll get you out." Spencer promised before he left the prison to work out a plan.

        After Spencer's departure, Gazelle smiled triumphantly while standing haughty in front of her cold iron bars.

        "We see how tough you are Spencer."
