“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.
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.
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
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
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

Desire stared at the mirror in front of her, observing her curves and how long her legs had grown since she clocked 18, two years back.How time flies!She smiled at the memory of her eighteenth birthday that also happened to be her first day out of the mansion ever since she was brought by the master of the house.Every year, a new girl is brought to the mansion as a slave and gradually ranks up to a servant till she becomes a house maiden which is the highest rank ever held by a slave girl.The slave is the lowest rank in the mansion and it’s usually held by a set of girls who were brought from the southern part of their region that is plagued by poverty, diseases and hunger.The servant rank is usually for girls who had served the house for more than four years, they’re believed to have more experience and insight on how to please the master.
Desire tried to cry but she couldn't anymore. The tears she'd cried the first day she was thrown here was more than her body could carry. She was scared of the darkness and whatever lies within, not knowing that wasn't even half of what she would go through during the night.Even though it had been two days since she had been subjected to the dark hole situated at the lowest part of the mansion, Desire felt life running out of her. She was exhausted and felt the punishment was tough enough to end her life.Without food, without water, and she prayed to the heavens to quickly kill her rather than subject her to this type of punishment.The dungeon is usually cold at night and hot during the day. She had to endure the cold nights without an extra cloth to keep her warm. The only thing th
Desire found herself standing in the middle of her Master's room as if she was a dancer on display. The scene reminded her of how ladies from the Harem were made to perform in front of senior ranked citizens.The only difference was the clothes she was putting on, the prostitutes were said to be made to dance naked. The Harem is a place where prostitute stays and the only place where prostitution is legal.She looked around the room and realized there were mirrors everywhere, at almost every corner of the room. Something was glaring back at her. It was her reflection.She observed herself for a while and realized she had lost some weight within the past two days, her hair was all over the place, her eyes swollen from the tears and her clothes tattered from dragging her down the stairs.

“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
