Dorian's POVI woke up and looked around. There was a slight light coming from a candle that was left in the room.Finally! I could see. I looked around and saw that I was alone. My side hurt, and I remembered that Conrad had shot me with a tranquiliser.That coward! Why couldn't he fight like a man?! It was a shame that he just ran off at any slight confrontation. He was not fit to be a prince.I soon heard a slight noise, and when I turned my head, I noticed a small flap in the door. It moved slightly, and soon, someone pushed a tray of cold food into my cell."Here is your meal, prisoner. I don't think captives like you deserve a hot meal."The person walked away, and I stared at the food on the ground. It was out of reach, and I was again chained to my chair.I ignored it and looked around the room. The air was damp and cold. It meant I was far from the warm light of day and fresh air. My best guess was that I was underground.I looked at the feeble chains and broke them off with
April's POVI woke up the next day, and I looked at my phone. My screen was still blank; there were still no calls or texts from Dorian. I took a deep breath and decided to check Dorian's room again, but it was still empty, and his bed was still icy cold.He hadn't come back yesterday, either. I was trying my best not to worry, but it became harder every second.He had to be back by today. At least by evening, even if he had to make stops on the way.I didn't have anything to do, so I decided to dress for school. I wanted to stay home and wait for Dorian; the previous day's attack made it unsafe to go out.I weighed my options and desperately wanted to stay home. I wanted to check Susan's room for Stacie's pictures, but it occurred to me that she wasn't going to leave until evening. There was no way I would put up looking at her sour face all day.I sighed in defeat; school it was.I got ready and headed downstairs. As soon as I reached the living room, I was pleasantly surprised t
Chapter 96Dorian's POV I heard a slight creaking noise, and I turned my head to see the flap on the door being opened once again. A plate of food was pushed in through the little gap. The gap was closed almost immediately, cutting off a tiny light that seeped through it every time it was opened.I looked at the food disdainfully and turned my head away. I couldn't eat it; what if it was poisoned? I couldn't just eat anything that was offered to me, especially now that Conrad was after my head. I continued to resist the urge to eat, and soon, I started feeling sharp pains in my abdomen that felt like miniature needles being stuck inside my stomach every time I would protest against the food.I gripped my stomach in pain and fell to the ground weakly, groaning in my discomfort and trying to pull myself together.I still needed to escape, but at this point, if I escaped with an empty stomach, I doubted that I would go far without Conrad and his men finding me.I turned my head around
Conrad’s POV "Ahhhhhnn! My King! More! More!"I could feel her tight and wet pussy gripping me firmly around my cock, and the way she grabbed the sheets excited me.I went harder and faster, enjoying the blush on her face and the way her lips looped into an 'O' each time I went deeper and harder into her.A groan escaped my lips; I could feel my orgasm coming."I'm about to cum my king. Please don't stop! Please don't!""Argh!"I spilled my warm juices inside of her and pulled out, not letting her reach her climax.I grabbed my clothes and began to dress up while she sat up and looked at me in shock."My King, I... I didn't finish."Her lips were turned down at the corners, and her eyes were sad. I glanced at her and leaned in, pinning her hands to the bed and looking at the expression of shock and anticipation on her face."It is your punishment. That's what you get when parading yourself around my villa as my woman. I have seen how you command my staff and dress, acting like the la
Chapter 98Dorian's POV I finally regained control of my limbs, and I was able to stand up, using a tree as a support. I looked around at where the driver had dropped me off, but I wasn't sure if I was in a familiar place.I was tired and drowsy, and every step I took seemed to require effort and a lot of calculation. The question glared in my mind: How do I return to my pack from here?With nowhere else to go, I began my journey with no specific direction in mind. My only goal was to return home. I walked through the forest, evading falling branches and deep ditches that were supposedly dug to catch unsuspecting prey. I couldn't tell what time it was, but I could see the sun peeping over the horizon, signalling that this was a new day.I continued to walk, and soon, fatigue and thirst caught up with me, but I couldn't stop moving now. I had to press on.I didn't know for how long I had been walking, but soon, the sun was well above the horizon, and I was bathing in the greenery wi
April's POV I woke up as early as possible the next morning and checked around the house for Dorian, but there was still no sign of him. I looked out of my window and surveyed the parking lot for his car, but it wasn't there. I dashed back to my room, picked up my phone, and dialled Ivar.“Please let him pick, and please let him have good news for me,” I silently prayed.The line connected, and Ivar's voice filled the speaker of my phone.“Good morning, April. Why are you calling so early?”“I am so sorry to disturb you, but I wanted to know if you have any news of Dorian's whereabouts yet.”I had my fingers crossed the entire time, but it was all pointless because Ivar said he hadn't gotten anything about Dorian yet, and he did try to call him last night before he went to bed."I did ask the men at the border to keep an eye out for him, and I am very sure that if they see something, we will be the first to know.”It had been three or four days, and I was slowly losing hope. I could
Chapter 100April's POV I continued cradling Dorian in my arms and stared at him with tears in my eyes. Dorian, what happened to you? I placed my fingers on his neck and felt his pulse. It was weak, and he was barely breathing. I turned quickly to Ivar."Hurry, let's get him out of here. We are losing him. His pulse is feeble, and I don't know how long he'll stay conscious."The wind howled gently, and Ivar helped me hoist Dorian up, and we placed him in the car's back seat. However, Ivar didn't get in the driver's seat and beckoned me to get in instead."No," I refused loudly. "What are you doing? We need to get out of here immediately. You can't stay...""April," he said, cutting me off. "I understand he's weak, but we must take precautions. We have no idea what brought him here, and it's possible that he is still being followed. I need you to drive him home, and I will stay back and try to clean up the trail and hide his scent. We can't make any more mistakes. Do you understand m
April's POVAfter my little jump scare, he let go of me and slumped back into silence.My heart was beating rapidly, and I wondered what had made him act that way.The sincerity in his tone, telling me not to go, sent shivers down my spine, but I knew I couldn't stay with him. I had to go and get some things from our house.I stroked his hair softly and gazed at him one last time before gently leaving and closing the door.Ivar wasn't back yet, but I hoped he would be back soon so that he could watch over Dorian. I was worried and scared for his safety. I still had no idea what had happened to him the entire time he was in the Royal City.How did doing taxes and getting relief funds turn into him running and now in such a critical condition?I got home and felt nervous about going in. I sniffed my clothes and hoped that I didn't smell like Dorian so much. Somehow, I was determined not to let Susan know anything.While she might not mind, after all, she seemed to be unbothered by Doria
