"Be strong, Nikolas. Aliana is a strong woman," Piotr told me, and I nodded. Unable to speak because I was a complete mess. My children had refused to return home and were asleep on the couch. "Riverhead is quiet," Miles said, and I knew why. They must have found out their Queen's conditions right
Seventeen Years Later Jasmine 21 years Mathias 21 years Ivory 17 years Aeron (Ibrahim) 24 years Aeron It's been seventeen years since my family washed up to the shores of Forest. It was a massive gamble on my grandfather's part to take us out of Pictoria the way he did, with the hope of a bett
The prince was a mighty king in the making. Every bit like his father. Though there was a three-year gap between us, we were best friends, and usually, if he were around, we would be loitering outside the palace together. Like me, he had refrained from attachments. Never committed to anyone and
I had complained several times that they should change their habits, but they believed Riverhead was safe and there were no psychos lurking around. They might be right about that. I suppose the only psycho visiting would be me, but I do well at hiding it. I do not know if something is wrong with m
"Your mother was hopeful, and she likes her," My father said, and I chuckled. "And how the fuck is that my business. If she likes her, marry her," I told my father, and he angrily balled his fist. "I am not a little boy, Father, and I am not interested in this girl," I said and looked at Mr Japhet
Jasmine I woke up in the morning panting. That stupid dream that haunted me in my sleep had somehow returned. It wasn't about the King who had a fire, but this time, I was trapped in a dark forest held by vines with thorns. They pierced my skin, dug deep and held me in place. A strange voice whis
Trevor had invited me to the party at his house. It is tonight, and I would love to go. I promised Ivory could come too if she kept it to herself because I knew Aeron wouldn't allow it if he found out. Besides, I could look out for her there. She would soon be eighteen anyway. I wouldn't be doing an
"Are you awake, Your Highness?" Aeron's voice rang, and I contemplated responding. Sometimes, I remained silent, but I didn't have the time to deal with his constant links. "Yes, and I am in the shower," I replied curtly, and he did not say anything again. I can't believe there was a time I crush

I must be sick just like him because I knew I should take offence, but there was something about his darkness that I was drawn to. I took off my panties and sat at the edge of the couch with my legs apart for an easy view and access. Aeron knelt between my legs. He ran his finger against the en
I swallowed immediately, my mouth dry. He had a way with words; I would lie if I said I wasn't turned on. "How dare you talk to me like that. I am not one of your girls…" I said, getting up from the seat. Afraid and excited at the same time. "Don't pretend you don't like it, Princess. I bet your p
I wouldn't be surprised if he had zoned out and I was just talking to myself. He was an expert at ignoring people. "I guess it's a norm then. You take women to your house, fuck them or do whatever the fuck you want and then cut them loose. The next time you meet, you act as if nothing happened," I
Jasmine By the next day, Aeron resumed his guarding duties and behaved as if nothing had happened between us. He stood by the dining room door frame while Ivory and I ate. As usual, he engaged Ivory in conversation with smiles and ignored me completely. There was sinister darkness in his eyes tha
I stepped away from the cell and walked away. On my way out, I found Jasmine at the entrance. She had just returned from somewhere, and I wondered where she had gone, but I kept my question to myself. The moment she saw me. Her face was replaced with rage. She walked past me without a word, and i
"When I got there, I knocked out their guards since they refused to grant my entrance and entered the house. I went up the stairs to the room and found Trevor's friends loitering outside the door of the room, waiting to join in the action…" I said. "That is a lie!" Trevor said. "Shut the fuck up,
Aeron I heard Jasmine storm out of my house in anger. It was for the best. The way I was feeling, I would want to fuck her, and I doubted she was ready for that. With her, it can't be just physical. It has to have meaning, and for now, what she felt was physical. I had made a mistake by touching
"You are too soft to handle pain, Princess," He said, smacking me again. Making it sting really hard. He wasn't gentle at all. He was deliberate and rough, and when I tried to move away from him, he would hold me by the waist, keeping me in place and speaking to me again. Tears welled up in my e
