The Last Confessor Episode 25

(She’s the last of her kind….)

By: Kebby NG

Isabelle was confused. That didn’t look like the Salome she had seen some years ago when she and some other confessors had gone to the Savannah Kingdom. It definitely didn’t look like her.

Or….was she just mistaken?

“Come on, everyone! Enough of the show already. There’s so much to do!” Ma’am Gloria clapped her hands, trying to distract them from the window and bit by bit, they started turning away.

The carriage was already out of sight anyway. So, there was nothing more to see. Isabelle also turned around and resumed work.

*****************

“Salome’s” carriage came to a halt and she stepped out majestically from it.

The guards and other important members of the cabinet were already on standby, waiting to welcome her and Salome’s eyes beamed with excitement as she walked towards them.

“Welcome ma’am” one of the highly prestigious women said. “we’ve been anticipating your arrival”.

“Oh!” She scoffed, her hand on her chest.
“What can I say? I’m honored”.

She had a red hat over her head, a red net over the upper part of her face and wore a gown that was a long enough to sweep the floor.

“The King is waiting for you” someone else said, pointing to the direction to her.

“Oh! Please, take me to him. Thank you” Salome replied curtly and took the lead.

The few people they came across kept stealing glances at her, admiring everything about her. Her beauty, sense of fashion, walking steps….

She looked extremely beautiful and classy and they admired her.

Finally, they got to the throne room and met Caesar there on his throne, relaxed.

Salome’s eyes beamed.

“My King!” She bowed as soon as she stood in front of him.
Her cheeks flushed in excitement.

“Salome” Caesar called unruffledly

“Finally, you’re here”.

“Yes, My King. Hope I didn’t take too long?”

“Of course, not. The party’s not until tomorrow. So, there’s still plenty of time to prepare”.

“Thank you so much, My King. I consider it an honor getting to sing for you” she looked up at him and smiled.

***************

Salome was taken to her room afterwards – one of the guest rooms which had been prepared for her comfort.

As soon as princess Rayna heard of the singer’s arrival, she had ran with full speed. But not without cross-checking her dress in front of the mirror anyway. She needed to look her best.

She knocked on the singer’s door and it was opened almost immediately for her.

“Hii” she beamed when she found the young pretty lady holding the door.

“Hi dear” Salome smiled back at her.

“I’m um… I’m Rayna – princess Rayna” she said.

“Oh! Of course. You do look like royalty. Please,come in” she opened the door wide for her and Rayna blushed as she walked in.

She acknowledged the fact she was royalty.

“How’re you doing dear?” Salome asked, going to turn some wine.

“I’m fine. Hope you had a pleasant trip?” She asked.

“Yeah, I think so”.

“Um…. I’ve always wanted to let you know…. I really admire you a lot – a lot. I’ve heard so much about you and….I’ve always wanted to meet you in person”.

“Awwn dearie. That’s cool. Thanks for being a fan”.

“You’re welcome. And I can’t… wait to watch you perform at the party. It’s going to be my first time watching you sing, you know?” Rayna giggled, like it was so much fun to her.

There was a sudden knock on the door and Salome smiled and went to open it.

Her eyes dimmed when she saw it was the confessor. Isabelle.
