This time it was an all-female delegation.
There were about ten young women dressed in the attire of the Princess’ servants.
The Princess herself walked in their midst.
“Now, this is becoming awkward by the day. Your price just went up, Zacky, my boy,” Kobby said tightly.
“What’s going on here?” Zack asked uneasily.
“I can take a guess. The Princess wishes a private audience.”
The delegation had reached them and one of the young maidens spoke.
“The fairest Princess of them all, the grand, beautiful, virtuous Princess Yaa of Densua, requests a private audience with Onua Zack! It will be proper if such an audience is granted without delay!”
The workers quickly picked up their tools, shirts and other belongings and quickly scampered away, much to the surprise of Zack, but he said nothing.
He was aware of Kofi Amo turning and casting concerned looks at the Princess.
He was gradually learning about the customs and practices of this amazing group of people.
Soon he was left alone with the Princess and her maidens.
The ten girls retreated a bit further down and turned their backs to them.
The Princess approached Zack, her eyes were bright, and her lips were open and wet.
She stopped very close to him. “Zack!”
Zack bowed to her once.
“Yes, Royal Princess?”
She giggled and laid a quivering hand on his shoulder.
“You can call me Yaa when we’re alone, Zack. My father is quite taken in by you. And I must admit I like that.”
“I’m pleased by that, Princess.”
Her eyes flashed and her lips set petulantly, “You will call me Yaa when we’re alone, Zack.”
“Yes, Yaa,” he said calmly.
She smiled then, her face softening again.
“Your haircut has really transformed you. You’re indeed a most handsome man. May I ask if, perhaps, you now remember who you are and where you come from?”
“No, Yaa. Still drawing blanks.”
“Oh, poor Zack! But do not force it, my dear,” she said tenderly. “It will all come back. Listen, on Saturday I’ll be hosting the Princess of Cherensua. We’re friends and we visit each other sometimes. I usually allow my closest friends to be around. I’m requesting your presence on Saturday.”
Zack’s eyes narrowed perceptively and he licked his lips.
“Well, I don’t know yet –”
“You will be there, Zack. All other things can wait. And remember, it is a great offence to turn down the request of the Princess of Densua. Have a good day, Zack, my friend.”
She turned and walked majestically away.
She was soon flanked by her royal maidens, and Zack stared after her, quite perplexed.
He did not like the way things had turned out at all!
Baffled and slightly worried, he went home and took a long bath to wash the speckles of hair and the grime from the day’s work off.
Wearing only shorts because of the tepid air and the relatively humid conditions in the room, he was standing by the window with a pencil and a sketch pad, idly putting the first drawings of a public toilet down when the door opened.
He turned slowly.
It was Kuukuwaa.
She was coming to inform him that dinner was served. She had not seen him almost the whole day because she had gotten up early to go to the farm with her father and stepmother, and by the time they came ,back Zack and Kobby were at the building site.
This was the first time she has seen him that day, and the first time she has seen him since his haircut and facial trim.
She had been smiling, as usual, getting ready to drag him to eat. But when he turned, she just gaped at him, and the smile slowly die on her lips. She stared at him, at his finely-toned body, and the incredible moulds of his face, now devoid of the hairy mass she had been accustomed to.
He had changed so much.
He now looks so regal, so royal, so polished that suddenly Kuukuwaa’s heart began to pound with trepidation. This was not the helpless man she had come to love so passionately.
No, this was a refined man, and looking at him she knew there was no way such a man was single.
And the thought of that sent shards of pain through her heart, and she looked down suddenly.
She was aware of him approaching.
Kukuwaa shivered as he held her chin and turned her face up.
She took a sudden step away from him, her face anguished, her eyes panicking.
“Stop, please!” she said tremulously.
He was shocked, and also quite taken aback, and his heart started to beat a little fearfully.
“Kuks… please!” he said anxiously.
She looked up at him, and sudden tears glittered on her lashes.
“Who are you? Who’re you, Zack? Surely, you cannot be a part of us!”
“What’s it, Kuks? Why’re you speaking like this? It’s me! Your Zack!”
He approached her again, and took her hands.
She was shivering as she looked up at him.
“I’m so scared, Zack! I’m going to lose you, aren’t I?”
“I don’t know the kind of life I had before I came here, Kuks,” he stated anxiously. “But believe me, my heart now is for you, no matter what happens!”
She moved from him, shaking her head, her tears falling, pushing him away as he came towards her.
“No, no, no, no! This can’t be! I’m being stupid!” she cried. “I’m only going to end up hurt and broken! You can’t be mine!”
Her back came up against the wall.
She could not beat a retreat anymore, and she looked at him helplessly through the wall of her tears.
In anguish, he reached out for her, his arms going around her waist, and then drawing her hard into him.
She felt the length of his whole body against her, and she was lost.
Desperately her arms sneaked around his neck and thirstily his arms crushed her against his chest.
She opened her lips as his head descended…
And Kuukuwaa kissed for the very first time in her life!
Fire and ice ravaged through her body, and she quivered as a pang of hunger as raw as it is primal tears through her and consumed her.
She received his tongue hungrily, thirstily!
She was lost as his lips blazed across her throat and his hand moved across her breasts.
She knew deep down that she was falling, that she could not stop it, that she wanted this… and more!
He broke away from her, taking a step back, shaking his head with a serene look on his face.
She almost fell as she looked at him through the hunger of her passion.
They were both breathing hard.
“Not like this, Kuks!” he groaned, his voice unsteady.
She nodded helplessly as love crushed out her heart.
“No, not like this! It must be right, at the right time!”
“Yes, at the right time, my love, my precious!”
Her eyes dropped, and she saw the violently-stretched front of his shorts, and a warm glow spread through her as she saw just the kind of effect she had on him.
“Oh, Zack! That thing doesn’t seem to agree!”
He looked down at the distended front of his shorts.
“Don’t mind him. He’s mad!”
They giggled and then suddenly she moved past him towards the entrance.
“Dinner is served, my love!”
And she was gone!
Zack sat down shakily on the bed and held his head as he strived to cool down.
There was no doubt about it!
He loved this girl with a fierce passion!
