Moments after the evil act took place, Desire staggerdly stood up, touched her neck and felt that it hurts more than hell. She was sure it would leave a mark, so she covered it properly with her hair.
She could’ve gone back to report to her master or maybe leave to report it to the court lady but she brushed off the idea and moved on to the kitchen. She didn’t want to start
“My lord, your dinner” Desire placed the tray of food on the table and turned to start leaving the room. She wasn’t in the mood of talking or even looking at him tonight. She just wanted to cry herself to sleep and wake up tomorrow to see if things will get better.
Sylvester got up and left the dining area without sparing Desire a second glance. Even though he was glad she was fine, he still couldn’t get most of her words out of his head. They kept on coming back to him, making him wonder what had happened to her to make her say those harsh words to him.
Desire was satisfied with the little she had learnt from the healer, her new teacher at the end of the day. She was walking along the side of the road, touching the beautiful flowers lightly.
Desire ran out of the room angry, betrayed and confused. She thought Sylvester felt something for her, she thought she was at least important to him.She hid in a corner until all the lights in the house were being put away one by one. Crying her eyes out and feeling really angry, she reluctantly returned to the room but before she did, she cleaned the tears away from
Sylvester fondled her breast before removing the buttons at the back of her uniform to gain full access to the twin bud that seemed to drive his senses away from him. He slipped his hand and lifted the uniform over her head. He pulled his hand into her undergarment to continue fondling her breast.
“I was seventeen when my grandfather, the first Minister to hold the highest title in the region, died. He was a lovable old man, you would’ve loved him tirelessly and he would have adored you too” Sylvester said, and pinched Desire on her cheek making her laugh.“We grieved for a while and then went back to our lives not knowing things were about to go bad for our fa
Desire looked at her master longingly before asking another scary question, “What is it like to be in love with someone?”
Desire was surprised at her master’s response. How could he just remove himself as the Prime Minister just like that?“My lord, why do you want to do such a thing?” Desire asked after the messenger left.
Three months later, still waiting inside the mansion for good news to come with hunger already setting in. Their food supply has reduced drastically and they could barely eat twice a day. The little farming they could do was in the garden and Cassandra weep bitterly when most of her flowers were uprooted to give space for planting crops.“We couldn’t possibly eat flow

Ying sent one of the warriors to tell Sylvester that their sister, the Queen, was dead. The warrior in his own capacity, went out discreetly and searched for Sylvester and after searching for two nights, he couldn’t find him. He returned home!“I couldn’t find them my lord. It seems they have moved on to another part of the region. According to the word I heard from s
The following morning Sylvester and all his soldiers and knights excluding just five of them left for the battlefield. They knew they had to save their region and not wait for the war to reach their wall before taking charge.Sylvester had found more than a hundred guns and several bullets in one of the attics in the mansion. Through the night, the soldiers were train
Desire opened her heavy eyelids to light. She closed her eyes as it penetrated, almost blinding her, before she opened it again. She looked around her and realized she was back in Sylvester’s suite. A lint was wrapped around her hand and her head hurt really bad.
“What happened? What did she tell him?” Fei asked Desire who kept her eye glued on Sylvester who was looking at her with so much hatred.“I do not know, Fei. But whatever she said had changed his mind about me” she replied.
“It’s Kim Chui. The woman is Kim Chui. Sylvester, please let them in, please. We can’t leave her out there like that” Desire cried out holding on to Sylvester’s cloth.Wrapping his arm around her, Sylvester instructed the soldiers, “Open the gate for them and take them to the northern wing of the mansion that we had already provided for them and give them the necessar
Desire sat beside Sylvester’s bed and watched him get rid of his cloth to take a bath. She kept on staring at him, thinking if this was a reality or dream.She thought she had lost him when those soldiers walked in without him behind them. She was so scared and prayed all night long that he'd come back to her.
Desire wasn’t her regular self by the time it was nightfall and there was still no sight of Sylvester. She sat in a corner for long, away from the others who had all cuddled up at the same spot, afraid of what was going on outside the walls.Fei sat beside her and held her hand. Even though she didn’t say anything, words weren't needed to express her emotions. She was
