Strange Mist Of The Day; Chapter 12 - Fiction

As I kept on crying,I heard some sounds like footsteps approaching. I raised my head up just to see a man holding the Royal staff with some other men prostrating and saying "Aremo".

I couldn't believe this,mother what's going on now?

Adekunle I couldn't fulfill all my promises to Awele,I have made the decision of allowing you to move near the throne. Please forgive me. When I tried all ways to find you but couldn't find you,I went to the king and explained to him so as to find you for me. What! Mother! I don't want to be a prince please tell them to go out of here.

I haven't said much when two hefty strong men took hold of me by my arms and carried me away from mother. I looked back at mother crying, I know she regrets her decision but I couldn't blame her for once,she is s mother indeed.
Now I am inside the palace locked up in a room,then I remembered what actually happened to me and Bolanle that night.

We were both sitting together when I saw a woman whom I know not calling Bolanle to come. Bolanle asked me to escort her to see the woman and that was the last I could remember before I found myself amidst some strange creatures. They were in form of human with two horns on the head and a long tail in the buttocks.

By this time I saw Bolanle looking exactly like others,and she was being praised by them to have done a nice assignment by bringing their so called mother, the prince,so Bolanle was actually sent out to find me,I have been charmed.
Now I understand why those strange creatures called me a Prince and I know why they are after me.
During my stay there Bolanle haven't changed a lot,she kept on feeding me secretly without anyone knowing and she promised to find a way out for me to escape.

It was after five years that she finally found a way out to make me escape and that was why I found myself in Agunola's town rough and dirt.

Bolanle was really in love with me but I don't understand why the mountain goddess seized to kill me instantly but rather punish me and made me suffer for years.
However what shocked me most is the fact that Bolanle is a mountain goddess which I didn't know earlier.
I actually met her a month before the incident and of course it was love at first sight,so I didn't hesitate than to approach her to be mine,which was a success for me.

I kept on thinking of my death inside the room alone,when I heard the Akewi Oba praising the King. The room is now opened and I saw the king moving in towards me.
My son he cries as he moves closer to me shedding tears of joy.
So this is my father,God am still grateful I know him as my father even before I die,my pain is just that I wish am not a Prince and that Bolanle is not a mountain goddess.
"Kabiesi" is there no shaman that can help me? Please I don't want to die I cried out.
