Evie pushed his hand away from her mouth, glaring at him angrily. "I don't know what you are talking about Imhotep, leave my chambers immediately." She tried keeping the intense fear from her voice.
Imhotep grinned. "I believe you do know. I finally figured out why you have been acting so differently Princess." He grabbed her arm and pulled up to a sitting position. "Now that I have you listening, I have a proposition."
Evie pulled her arm away. "If you do not leave this instant, I shall scream." Her threat didn't sound convincing, not even to herself.
Imhotep smiled. "If you scream, I will simply tell the Medjai that I have caught an imposter, I am not the only one who has noticed your strange behavior. You would be taken before Pharaoh and you would be questioned, some very personal questions that only the Princess would know."
Evie looked at Imhotep, fear playing in her almond eyes. She was trapped and had no way out. Imhotep had figured it out that she wasn't Nefertiti. Evie had studied Nefertiti quite a bit after finding out that she was the reincarnated Princess, but she didn't know the intimate details of her life, just the historical details.
Imhotep sat on her bed, looking down at her. "Are you going to listen to my proposition?"
Evie sighed. "Do I have a choice?"
Imhotep grinned. "No. I will not expose you as the imposter you are, but you must do something in return."
Evie didn't like where this was going. "What?"
"You must go to the Pharaoh and ask for him to have us wed tomorrow evening and you must marry me willingly."
Evie looked at him as though he had gone insane. Either way she lost, as did Nefertiti. If she refused she would most likely be killed, if she agreed, she would be sealing Nefertiti's fate. "May I give you my answer in the morning?"
Imhotep looked at her, scrutinizing her. "I am not sure if I should allow that, however you aren't in the position to do anything, so very well." He stood up and turned to leave. He looked back at her. His eyes full of evil. "I shall see you in the morning Princess." he laughed and walked out.
Evie got out of bed and put her golden slippers. She draped a robe over her nightgown and slipped out of her room. She had to find someone to help, and she knew just the two for that.
Rashidi was just laying down in the barracks, he and Joniaton had gotten out of night watch, he couldn't stop thinking of Nefertiti, his beautiful princess. But Imhotep had dashed any dreams of being with her. He heard Joniaton joking around with a few other Medjai and smiled. What would he do without his friend Joniaton. Joniaton had been the one who had said about kidnaping Imhotep and feeding him to the crocodiles. As much as Rashidi would love to do that, he couldn't. He wasn't normally one to just give up, but he didn't want to risk Nefertiti getting hurt, and Imhotep was capable of almost anything.
He heard the Medjai that Joniaton had talking with left to go onto patrol, leaving Rashidi and Joniaton alone. Rashidi sighed, he had to keep himself from going to see Nefertiti. Joniaton sat down next to Rashidi and sighed. "Thinking about your little Princess again buddy?"
Rashidi smiled at Joniaton. "You know me too well old friend. I really miss her."
Joniaton grinned. "You already heard my suggestion on the solution to your problem."
Rashidi laughed. "Yeah and if we got caught, I would ask them to let me kill you."
Joniaton laughed as well. "You would never catch me, I am to quick, you may have all those muscles, but they make you slow."
Rashidi punched Joniaton in the shoulder. They both turned as they heard the sound of light footsteps coming there way. Rashidi got up as Evie slipped into the room. Rashidi ran up and embraced her tightly. "Won't you get in trouble Nefertiti?"
She looked up at him, something different was in her eyes. "What is wrong?"
She looked down. "I haven't been completely honest with you Rashidi."
Rashidi gently lifted her face up. "What do you mean?" She was beginning to scare him, she was always so happy when she was with him. What could she mean?
Joniaton looked at the two. "I should go stand watch."
Evie looked up and shook her head. "No, don't leave, you need to hear this too."
Joniaton obeyed and sat down. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he would be there for Rashidi and Nefertiti.
Evie sat Rashidi down, then sat down beside him. "Rashidi, I am not who you think I am."
Rashidi smiled. "Come on, I know the real you, not as the Princess, but the person behind the crown."
Evie smiled. If she wasn't about to rock his boat by telling him the truth, she would kiss him for saying that. "I don't mean it like that, I mean I am literally not who you think I am."
Joniaton leaned forward. "Meaning?"
She took a breath. "I am not Princess Nefertiti."
Joniaton and Rashidi wore exact faces of confusion and unbelieving. "Wait...what!"
