CHAPTER THIRTY NINE
By the time Evenius got to the palace, King Wright was already lying in his room.
He looked so peaceful in his sleep, but he also looked like he could open his eyes the minute anyone takes a step close.
The White Horse was already in his richly decorated stable, no one was allowed in there except the king.
It was impossible to try to communicate with the horse because he too was as arrogant as his owner.
Standing at the Kings door, Evenius contemplated what to do.
He badly wanted to pace around.
To think.
But pacing around would disturb the sleeping King and that was a bad idea.
But he was worried sick.
.
.
Swallowing hard, he took that first bold step, dashed into the room.
He was going to feel his breath then run off before he gets caught,that was his plan.
But his hope of escaping was dashed against the wall, when his hand was caught as he was about placing it close to the Kings nose.
When he was about taking his hand off as he already confirmed with his heart at ease that he’s the breathing.
He found the King staring at him as he gripped his hand tightly.
At the moment,he froze.
Was he to get excited that the King was alive or was he to feel bad because he would be getting punished for barging into his room.
Realizing himself,he fell on his knees.
Forgive me, Your Majesty, he begged.
Get out, King Wright ordered.
Thank you, Your Majesty, Evenius thanked him, tried standing, but King Wright didn’t let go of his wrist.
Your… Your Majesty? he called in fear.
But King Wright ignored him and shut his eyes.
He went back to sleep, still gripping unto his wrist.
I’m so dead, Evenuis muttered to himself as he was bent, he couldn’t sit, neither could he stand properly.
He couldn’t pull his hand out either,he stayed like that, uncomfortably but obediently.

THREE HOURS LATER
Evenius was stretching his aching shoulder and neck as he watched the king who was busy reading like nothing ever happened.
He just woke up not up to thirty minutes ago, and Evenuis was grateful to finally be free.
But he was asked to stay back and wait, and he has been waiting since then.
It was like the King totally forgot about him or he intentionally just wanted to punish him.
Its been a bad day for me, all through, Evenuis thought with a gloomy look but he was grateful that the king was fine for the main time.
All he needed was a little time to figure out how to tell the king about his findings.
He sat like a rat caught stealing from the pot as he waited for the King who was doing God knows what in his private room.
Thirty minutes turned to an hour, he almost jumped in excitement when he sensed the King walk in behind him.
He stood up and bowed at the king who was staring at him.
Aren’t too going to ask what happened? King Wright asked, his both hands behind his back, a smirk on his face.
He could read his mind, how many thoughts ran through his mind and how he thought about not letting him read.
It made him feel like laughing so hard, people’s thoughts can be quite disturbing and funny at the same time, he thought as he made his way to his seat, opposite Evenuis.
Your Majesty….
Sit, King Wright ordered as Evenuis swallowed hard then sat reluctantly, he felt bad that he couldn’t get the words out of his mouth.
What a coward, he muttered to himself.
He lifted his head to meet with King Wrights scary eyes staring keenly at him.
He bored fearfully, several thought going on in his head.
“I have to tell him”
“But how do I say it”
“How do I tell His Majesty that I see death hovering around him”
“How do I even say that to a King when I’m supposed to find out how to prevent it and fix it”
“What if he decides to behead me when he finds out I have kept this from him all these while” he thought with wide eyes
Oh my God, what do i…
Evenuis? King Wright called and he shook I’m fright.
Oh my Go…… Your… Your Majesty! He stuttered bowing so hard that his head hit the table but he refused to show his pain.
No one is beheading you, you are distracting my own thoughts, King Wright said with a smirk.
Your Majesty!!! Evenius called with his eyes almost popping out of its sockets.
“Oh Lord, he heard me!!
“Did he also hear me say death is….. his hands went straight to his mouth as he looked up to see the kings face.
“But why is he so calm!!
Can you stop thinking!!! the king half yelled.
His head went blank.
He couldn’t think, he held his breath.
Don’t get yourself killed, King Wright said, the next second he was gone.
Evenuis lowered himself to the floor, heartbroken and dumbfounded.
He didn’t even get to find out what happened to his King.
Neither did he get to find out why his star is getting dumped instead of shining as usual.
But he worried more because the Kings knows, yet he isn’t showing any sign of worry, is he accepting his fate?
A thought came to his mind and he rose to his feet.
Is he dying because he gave me 25 years?!
Oh no, I’m sucking up His Majesty’s life span!!?
Oh my God, No!
No, I won’t let that happen?
I would rather die watch him die right before my eyes.
He rushed out of the Kings chambers, ran into the store house and picked up a strong rope then teleported to his old home before he started living with the King.
He wrote his suicide note with tears in his eyes then he tied the rope.
He then slid his neck into it, pushed away the chair as the rope strangled him.
With a sad smile on his face, he waited to take his final breath.
TBC
Evenuis ??
Do you think the King is dying because of him?
Why do you think the King is calm despite knowing?
