It hurts like hell to see the way Ayla behaves towards Strïth, she trusts him unconditionally, even if it means hurting her. I approach the bed taking a deep breath, still feeling Strïth trying to break free.
'Go to sleep! Or you won't be able to come back later to be with her!' I ordered angrily.
Strïth finally stopped struggling, but he wasn't satisfied with being thrown to the back of my mind.
I sat on the bed and took Ayla's hand. I could see her immediately trying to pull away, but I held her.
"Ayla, Strïth is dangerous, yes you can trust him unconditionally... But trust me, he would kill you." I started to explain, but I don't think Ayla cares if she dies and that makes me ang

Ayla POVSoren doesn't understand, no matter what Strïth wants from me, I'll give myself up without resisting, and even if it hurts me... After all, I can't be any more broken than I am now.I'm not going to improve and study because Soren or Victor asked me to, but because Strïth asked me to, which I trust only in him. I know that Strïth is driven by feelings, by instincts, and that's what makes me trust him, that Strïth will never intentionally hurt me.Victor begins to gently clean my stitches, trying not to hurt anymore, but any touch there makes my skin crawl, and a few tears want to form in my eyes, but I try to fight them back."Ayla... Soren is only thinking about what's best for you." Victor begins to speak, as he starts to appl
A Slave to the Kings Options
Victor POVThe rest of the day passed slowly, stretching out, and I simply wanted it to end soon. I know I'm on guard for Ayla so that she doesn't get hurt.I even put on instrumental music in the room, because the silence was overwhelming, every order I gave Ayla obeyed without thinking.Even when Soren came in and mixed a drop of blood into the water, nothing changed in her countenance... Well, it seems that she's even deeper, she's hidden herself so deep in the darkness that it will be very difficult to bring her back.So that she wouldn't lie there all the time, I took the tablet and gave it to her to read, and I only see her eyes moving and occasionally her hand when she needs to change pages.Soren finally
A Slave to the Kings Back to school
Soren POVIt's been two days since the incident and Ayla's face has improved a lot, always after she takes a direct drop we can immediately see an improvement. Dr. Grey always comes to check Ayla's signs, and she hasn't said anything about me giving my blood.But I know there's some gossip going around, that Victor is doing his best to check, but he and I are appearing together more often. After all, during the day, we leave Ayla with the tablet, so she can read her books while we do our work.So I believe most people think I'm helping Ayla, just because she's together with Victor. Of course, some people are talking about a threesome between me, Ayla and Victor and I don't mind, so it's easier for me to walk around smelling like both of them.What matters i
A Slave to the Kings Reactions
Ayla POVI thought it would be easier to write since I can read, but it's actually more difficult because even though I see the image and know what it means, my hand doesn't seem to want to obey me and make the strokes look right.The professor is being very patient with me, perhaps Soren ordered him to treat me like this because he feels guilty about the attack I suffered. Victor and Soren tell me it wasn't supposed to happen, but it's hard to believe.Although this teacher had already shown himself to be more attentive in the first lesson, I've noticed some things about him that are very familiar, and I don't know if he's doing it on purpose to show me. The first thing I see is that he has some scars, which could be battle scars, but on his wrist, there is something that looks like a code tattoo, but

Soren POVI knew that the moment she realized that she had no control over her body, things would change, and I doubted she'd accept drinking my blood. In parts, I'm happy to see her reacting, trying to pull away... This was a move on her part, doing something she wanted.I start kissing her face, wiping away her tears and trying to comfort her and her body stiffens, she doesn't want my affection, but I won't let her pull away. This is one of the few times I can do that and she'll understand.When her tears are over, I look straight into her green eyes and I can see some emotion there, and it's fear. She's afraid of losing herself, I sigh, because Ayla won't lose herself, she'll find herself and realize how magnificent she is."Ayla, I know all these change
A Slave to the Kings Instincts
Victor POVWhen I entered the room, I saw something different. Soren is sitting at the table and Ayla is in front of him. In between them is a board and they are playing checkers. It's not an extremely complicated game, but it certainly requires excellent logical thinking. He's a little more relaxed and although it's almost imperceptible, I notice that Ayla is leaning back in her chair a little more, which indicates that she's genuinely interested.I also noticed that Ayla's stitches had been changed, Soren hadn't explained anything to me, just that he needed me to deal with things in the afternoon, as he was going to be spending time with Ayla.Soren looks up and smiles at me, while Ayla is thinking about her next move. I approached them carrying the food trolley.
A Slave to the Kings Garden
Ayla POVIt's been a week since the attack, I've learned a lot in that time, about reading, about history, I've learned math, and geometry, as well as logic problems and text interpretation. My handwriting isn't perfect, but I can write long sentences.My teachers are very good, and they are patient, even though I don't actively answer many of their questions. My days are always full, I have to study most of the time, but then there's lunch, Dr. Grey's visit, my appointment with Dr. Charlotte and I still spend a lot of time with Soren and Victor.With Dr. Charlotte, I just answer some questionnaires and play some games, which I don't understand because they seem a bit pointless to me, but it must make some sense because she's always writing down my results.
A Slave to the Kings Giving up control
Ayla POVStrïth is gently stroking my hair and I feel my body relax, I know he's not forcing it that he really cares, although I've never had much doubt about that...I've never been able to reciprocate properly, I've always been too afraid of opening up and simply being broken again. I raise my head and meet his gaze on me and there is all the love he feels for me and I knew at that moment that I needed to reciprocate.I stand on my tiptoes and then brush my lips against his, letting his taste invade my mouth. He's surprised, but it's a good thing, so I open my lips slightly, indicating that I want more than just a chaste kiss.I feel him squeeze my waist, conflicted about how to react, but I insist and even get the tip of my tongue to his lips and St

Ayla POVEvery step I take away from the imperial bedroom, my heart races, this is a dream come true, and I still can't believe it's really happening. A part of me is afraid that it's all just a dream and that I'll end up waking up on the cold floor of Julian's pack.The aisles are full of flowers that are typical of spring, as this was the first thing I decided, that the theme of the wedding would be the season when most flowers bloom.In addition, of course, to having the flowers from each of the houses, even those that bloom at specific times... Ishtar had already helped me with this, making sure they were all bright and at their peak.I stop at the window to see how happy everyone is, with the music echoing even as high as I am.

A Slave to the Kings Wedding 1
Ayla POVThe days passed in the blink of an eye, even though I felt weaker with each passing day, as the amount of auras weighed heavily on my shoulders.The potions that fairies give me are very strong and every time I take them I end up sleeping for the whole period, so I started taking them every morning, as soon as I woke up, because it added to the strength that Ghost was feeding me.It was only because of this that I was able to spend the afternoon and part of the evening with my guests and so many races had arrived, the Castle was lit up with so much happiness and so much diversity.Gradually, everyone got on board with the theme of the wedding, "Spring". The flowers have been hand-picked because they symbolize what we are, there are all the flowers

Victor POVSeeing Ayla interact with the rulers of the Faerie Kingdom is history in the making, and I'm sure the other Kingdoms will be more afraid of how gigantic our Kingdom is becoming.The alliance with the Kingdom of the Fairies is something very unexpected, as well as important because their magic is just as powerful as that of the Kingdom of the Wizards and the Witches. It means that in this war we are taking several more steps towards victory.These revelations add to what Ghost has told us. Of course, we're not happy to know that others can see how our bond is doing and that worries me because when the Kingdom of the Wizards and the Witches arrive, it will be very clear and that will make us targets for attacks.My mate's sadness resonates in my ch
A Slave to the Kings A new friendship
Ayla POVI could feel something different as I approached the Hall of Thrones and when we entered it became clearer why there was music in the air, something like what I've heard in some Soul stones, but this one is different.There are so many different voices and I don't understand what they're saying, but I don't need to, because I can feel the emotions they want to convey and as I looked at the Rulers it became clearer that the music came from them and was made for them.The pain is hidden behind happy, fast notes, with a lively beat that the other fairies follow instinctively, and it's almost impossible to perceive the undertones of sadness and melancholy.The voices want to cheer up their Rulers after a sad event, and I can connect with that because I
A Slave to the Kings Recognition
Victor POVI let my aura flow towards Soren so that he calms down because Ghost is right and Soren hates it when he's challenged. No matter who it was."You're right, Ghost," I said before Soren could say anything. "We really need to decide on the next in command. A lot of decisions have been put on the back burner by all the situations we've been through."Ayla is feeling guilty because she knows that Ghost only did what we asked, and she thinks she could have done more to help him."But this isn't the place for something like that. I'll arrange a meeting in the afternoon with the Heads of Houses and also with the leaders of the strongest Packs in your Kingdom." I continued speaking.Ghost looked at Ayla intens
A Slave to the Kings Titles and Succession
Ayla POVI wake up and realize immediately that I'm not in the imperial bedroom and the smell of Ghost is everywhere, enveloping me and my heart squeezes because I had hoped this wouldn't have to happen and I couldn't hold back the silent tears that started to flow.I'm feeling so miserable, simply because I'm not strong enough to regenerate on my own. Then I feel a blanket being placed over me, the smell of Soren and Victor is there, and at the same moment, I feel better.It's as if I had betrayed my mates before, but now it's as if they are embracing me and understanding the situation. In parts, I can't believe I have such good and understanding mates.I lay there for a few more minutes before getting up and looking around; the room has a medieval style a
A Slave to the Kings Elves and Dwarves
Ayla POVThe days have passed and more and more I feel my body aching and hurting when I take the potions, but at least I'm managing to withstand the auras of the various types of creatures and beings that are arriving to take part in the wedding.Of course, I don't meet all of them, just the most important ones for now and always in the Hall of Thrones, because there I feel much stronger, and I'm not so affected by the auras.Of course, I'm sleeping more and so the surrounding security has doubled. I always have a few soldiers around me when Victor and Soren aren't around. Even with Ghost present, everyone agreed that this extra security would be better.I didn't pass out in any of the encounters, but I was always drained at the end of them. This shows how

Ayla POVThe meeting to choose the flowers was kind of fun, as there are many types and many ways to create bouquets, and it was a bit difficult to choose the ones that made the most sense for the wedding.Of course, there can't be too many magical flowers, as that would add more weight to my aura and probably hurt me more, so I decided on just two flowers around the Castle that mean many things, the Smeraldo and Selene's Tears, even though we have few Tears, it's still an important flower.The two flowers will even make up part of my bouquet, and it's going to be beautiful, I never thought my life would change so much. After all, I was a mere slave, with no prospect of anything but dying.Living only to serve others, without ever uttering a sound or a word
A Slave to the Kings Solution
Soren POVThe meeting with the Heads of House was extremely boring, one of the few things I hate about being Emperor, as these meetings can often go on for days, as each one wants to be better than the other and have the upper hand.Although each House had its function within the Kingdom, the Heads always wanted to have a greater influence. Even more so with Skyler's problem, I need to put someone else in charge of the House of Poppies, but the person I choose will be my third-in-command.For a while now, I've been thinking about putting Ghost as my third-in-command and choosing another leader for the House of Poppies, but the problem is that this is going to cause some strife among my subjects, whether they're Heads of House or not.I know the Lycan race w
