So... The last chapter ran a bit long... sorry! I know that you are ready to see them meet, so without further mouth-moving, here's ch.4!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Regular pov with Hotep and Huy~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pharaoh! You've returned!" Said Hotep and Huy. They were ready to rat out Ramses to Seti.
Seti got off the chariot, waved off the driver, and stood in front of Hotep and Huy.
"Hotep, Huy, nice to see you again." He greeted.
"How was your trip?" asked Huy.
"It was nice. Anything interesting happen when I was gone?" Seti asked as they walked inside.
Now was their chance.
"Well, something did happen..." Hotep said, with fake pity.
"Is something wrong?" Seti asked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Pov with Ramses.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ramses is at the door to his chambers, where Hadarah is to be meeting him.
He takes a deep breath, and opens the door.
~~~~~~~~Ramses Pov~~~~~~~~
When I open the door, my breath is taken away. Hadarah is posed on my bed in a beautiful gown- unlike any other I have ever seen. She is wearing egyptian makeup, and fancy egyptian jewelry. I walk over to her, and she stands and greets me.
~~~~~~Pov~~~~~~
"Hello, Ramses." Hadarah says. "Nice to see-" She is cutoff by Ramses pushing her onto the bed, getting on top of her, and kissing her passionetly. At first, she is shocked, but then melts into the kiss.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Pov with Hotep and Huy~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Well," Hotep begins. "We regret to inform you..."
"That Ramses has dishonored Egypt by braking the ancient traditions." Huy interrupts.
By now, they are in the royal banquet hall, which is empty now because it is so late. All the other slaves have gone home.
"What? How?" Seti asks, becoming angry towards Ramses.
"He has.." Hotep begins. He is having second thoughts about telling Pharaoh because Seti is a different person when angry.
"Answer the question!" Shouts Seti. Thankfully, no one can hear.
"He...A SLAVE HAS FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HIM!" Huy blurts. He changes the story so Ramses won't have to face his father's anger.
"What?" Seti asks. He is full of rage and shock.
Everyone is quiet for a minute.
"Where is Ramses now?" Seti asks.
"Uh..." The two priest say in unison.
"I said where is he now?" Seti says, surprisingly calm, but shaking from fury.
"He is in his chambers." Says Hotep.
Without another word, Seti storms off to Ramses chambers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ramses Pov~~~~~~~~~~~
I couldn't help myself. I had to kiss her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Pov~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ramses and Hadarah were so involved in each other that they didn't hear Seti enter.
"RAMSES!" Seti shouts.
Ramses stops kissing her and turns around to see his father.
"F-Father!" He says, getting off her.
"Ramses, See me first thing tomorrow morning. And as for you, have her stoned to death. No slave will be allowed to seduce my son." He says to two guards nearby. They forcefully begin to take her away.
"Father, please don't-" Ramses says.
"Enough, Ramses. I've made up my mind." Seti says.
"Father, hear what I-" Ramses argues again.
"It has already been taken care of, my son. You won't have to deal with her anymore." Seti spits.
"Father, this is my fault."
"What?" He holds up a hand to tell the guards the cease.
"I...I.."
"You what?" Seti asks.
"I...I love her." Ramses says, looking at his feet.
"WHAT?" Seti roars.
"I've loved her since the moment I saw her. I planned this just so I could be with her tonight." Ramses fessed up.
"Ramses, meet me first thing in the morning in the throne room."
