Finally, he raised his head and stared at her, "I don't hear a question there, Vetta."
"It just baffles me, Your Majesty. Why you should let your slave move into the Royal Quarters...into Princess Melia's bedroom...and the slave also happens to be King Cone's daughter."
"I didn't move King Cone's daughter to that bedroom. I moved Remeta." He reached out for a new scroll and unfolded slowly. He laid it down on the table and scrutinized it thoughtfully.
"Remeta?" What has that got to do with Baski's crazy daughter? She asked herself inwardly.
He spared her a glance. "Have you seen little Remeta, lately?"
"No, Your highness. The last time I saw her, six months ago, she screamed her head off at the first sight of me." She answered flippantly.

She'd waited for the girl to fall asleep in Danika's bedroom before she'd carried her from the bedroom to her room here in the palace.It's only in these moments of Remeta sleeping well that she's able to put some herbs on her and rub her body the healing herbs that will clear the scars from the scratches she gave herself.Baski got up from the bed and walked to the table. She opened her herb bag and brought out all the leaves, stems, and concoctions she packed in it.But as she searched, she couldn't find the most important leaf. How can she not pack the Dorco plant?It's the most important plant which she uses in making the For

That very day Sally had screamed her heart out. He couldn't help remembering the way it all affected his woman lying on his bed.She'd screamed at every agonizing scream of her former personal maid. She'd cried every cry. She'd hurt so much that she came to him for the first time. She'd hurt so much, she chose physical pain as an escape from the emotional pain.He was frowning really hard in thought. When she started sobbing, he was forced to move.He walked towards her and sat down on the bed. "Stop it. It's just a nightmare." He spoke calmly."Oh... stop whipping me.... I d-did nothing wrong... Stop! Stop...! It hurts...!" She cried th

"What is she doing here?" Vetta asked the king. She did her best to keep the anger from her face but it was difficult.Danika has ruined a very good day for her again. Why does she have to be here!?When the king didn't say any word, instead he jerked at the rein of his horse which causes the horse to start moving, she glared hard at his back."Let's go." King Moreh stated.All of them started moving. Danika walked to the empty horse in the corner and climbed on it.For the first time, she's thankful that she and Sally had learned how to ride all those days they used to sneak out of her room.Riding is much better than walking on foot, which is exactly the fate of a slave.They all jerked on the rein of the horses at the same time and the horses sped up in a run. Vetta was so mad, smokes would have come out of

Danika found herself screaming because she saw it happen. The King's big body caught the arrow that was triggered when his horse stepped on the second trap. An arrow shot him. And he just had a bad fall. Chad already jumped down from his horse and was raced so hard with a fastening speed that would have surprised Danika if she wasn't so panicked at the King's fall. Within seconds, he raced past them and reached the king. Danika already climbed down too and was fast on his heel. King Lucien opened his eyes and groaned. Then, he closed his eyes again.

She dipped the rag into the bowl and placed it on the King's burning forehead. He stiffened, his jaw clenching....the same reaction they all got. "Yeah, right." Vetta snorted. "We shouldn't waste our time with her, Baski. I don't know whatever gave you the idea that he would welcome the touch of the daughter of the man that destroyed him!" Baski and Chad both stiffened at the reminder. But they said nothing. Danika withdrew the wet cloth and raised her other empty hand. She placed her palm on his forehead and rested it there. Gradually, the stiffness left his body and he relaxed back into unconsciousness. Baski and Chad released a

His eyes were closed, his face relaxed in unconsciousness. His scars drew her attention, she looked at the long line that ran down a cheek, giving him a savage look. Why did her father's sins have to haunt her? Even after he is dead? Why does this have to happen? The water is no longer as cold, she observed. Getting up from the bed, she took the water to the bathroom where she poured it away and got new cold water. She came back and resumed her seat. She dipped the wet rag inside and continued bathing his face and neck. Afterward, she checked his temperature and felt better when his face wasn't as hot as before. But when her hand touch

My Danika?Oh, when did she start dreaming this way? When did she start hearing words that were never said?Because she's very sure that the king can never make such a statement she heard. It's her mind playing jokes on her.She reveled in the feeling of the full weight of him on top of her and even though, he is so heavy he's suffocating her...it doesn't matter.Unbiddenly, her mind went back to that very night he took sexual pleasures from her body in this very position. Her body went hot all over at the memory.And she was also suffocating. She used all her strength and managed to push the unconscious king away from her body. She got up,

The nervous way her hand gripped her nightclothes, the flush of her cheeks, the flash of her eyes.His body has been reacting to her since he rose from slumber, but now, his phallus only hardened and lengthened.He doesn't know that a man could get this way even when he's unwell, and most definitely, not a man like him. What is it about her?His eyes on her, he noticed the imprint of a hand on her cheek. "Who struck you?"The question took her by surprise and her hand fluttered up that caress that cheek. "It's Mistress Vetta."He gave no reaction. "Why?"She shifted uncomfortably on the bed, "She...Uhm...she was angry because of what happened to you...bec
