Danika and the king walked back into his chambers. The silence was uncomfortable.
Danika picked the hem of her dress nervously, while waiting for the king to dismiss her. He hasn't said a word since the dungeon and it had her worried.
Is he angry that she released the women? But, he'd given her rights to their judgement. She shifted uncomfortably from one foot to another.
"Danika." He has his back to her when he called her name.
That tone... The very tone of his voice had shivers going down her spine. It's the same voices he uses whenever they're in bed together.
The same tone he calls her name with, when he's taking his pleasure from her body.
"Y-Yes, Your Highness." She fidgeted with her dress, her voice wasn't past a whisper too.
"What am I going to do with you.

Do you want him to order my execution!?" Baski paused, deep in thoughts. She understands where Danika is coming from, but Danika doesn't know the condition of the king. She doesn't know that the king was thought sterile and she can't tell her about it. The king is a very private person and this is not a secret a person just reveals. Even Vetta doesn't know about it. "Danika, my dear, he might be very happy about it. You'll never know unless you try..." She informed uncertainly. "Might?" Danika whispered, "I should walk up to him and risk my life for 'might'?

During the princess's meetings, they talk and confide in each other, and the married ones tell them some secrets of the marriage bed.They don't care if you want it or not, and it's never pleasant too. You just lie there and take it, so you can make a baby."No... I'm not ready." She almost added that he should get on with it, because she might never be ready.But, she didn't want to push her luck. She isn't brave enough.He stepped back, causing her hand to fall away from his shoulder. Kamara could have sworn that it's relief she saw in his eyes before he blinked it away and gave her that blank stare that has become perfectly his."Get on the bed and lie down." He o

I know he will be happy for me on this day, if he was here."King Lucien blinked hard and shook his head to get Chad's heartfelt words away from his mind.But, the words kept whispering into his mind over and over again, until he drew taut with tension like a drawn bow.If only Declan was alive...Chad had made the innocent comment after his wedding while he was greeting and thanking him for attending his special day. He'd clamped his mouth shut immediately he said those words and apologized regretfully."Declan is not some forbidden topic, just because he's dead. It's okay, Chad."

She walked to Danika’s bedroom and saw her lyimg down on the bed, her breathing evened out. She knows that she’s sleeping even before she walked towards her front and saw her closed eyes. Even in sleep, lines of worry marred her face. Baski knows that the poor girl is more stressed lately with everything she’s going through.

Baski held her, “Easy, easy…”
