Kira and I decided I couldn’t go inside with Rae. I needed to keep my cover, but it was the hardest thing I have ever had to do.“Well,” I ask, my voice shaky and weak. “Is she okay? Did Dr. Bally help?”“She did help, Annabelle,” Kira sighs and she climbs into the car, hugging me. “Rae is okay…. She is in serious condition, but okay. Dr. Bally knew right away when she saw her what was wrong,” she sighs, her eyes meeting mine. “But unlike the others, she gave her some medicine for the pain.”I let my tears fall as I hug Kira tightly, “At least she helped,” I sniffle. “No one else did.”Kira sighs, “I know… for now, it’s touch and go, but Dr. Bally says she may be able to help Rae if she improves… she may be able to give her medicine to hide her condition and help her live a semi-normal life,” she pauses, her voice breaking, “Until she
MaddenI gasp, looking into the corner of the room where Sophie sits with her arms crossed, “We had plans. Why are you with so many skanks?” she asks, glaring daggers into the three women.“Come on, Sophie, we may have had plans but when I didn’t show did you really need to come to my room?” I gasp, putting on my clothing.“You know, King Madden, she can join us if she wants?” One of my father’s presents grins as she eyes Sophie, but now I am both embarrassed and disgusted.“GROSS! That’s my brother!” Sophie gasps, her gagging loud and forceful.“Ohhh…” the present begins, but I am no longer interested.“OUT! All three of you!” I growl. The three women gasp as they look at one another but they pick up their lingerie pieces and head for the door, slamming it shut as they leave.“Really, Madden?” Sophie rolls her eyes. “Three? I mean, the gossip around the castle is that you’re a man whore but three?” She asks again, her tone both disgusted and in shock.“To be fair, Father arranged the
AnnabelleMy heart is racing as Rae and I stick the ally ways. I am trying to figure out where we can go, that’s safe but nothing is coming to mind.I am trying to panic, but it’s freezing outside, and Rae is already weak and sick, “Where are we going, Belle?” Rae says, softly tugging on my arm.“I’m not sure,” I answer honestly. “Kira lives too far, but we need to be close by where we can catch her before she reaches the Lynch’s to pick us up.”“Pick us up?”I gasp when I realize I haven’t told Rae what had happened! She has no idea I was chosen to be King Madden’s surrogate or that she would be safe from that evil home in the castle with Kira. I have been in flight mode ever since I hit Mr. Lynch with the glass—I haven’t explained anything!“Belle?” she asks again, and I quickly spin around.“He chose me, Rae,” I say smiling. “And you are going to stay with Kira at the castle!” I beam. “We are going to get away from them Fin-“I begin, but now tears well in my eyes as I realize what
Madden“I’ll see you tomorrow,” Mallard says as he yawns. “I’m honestly beat.” He says as he stands up stretching his arms, but I only smirk.“Let me guess,” I grin. “Ms. Talented Tongue is waiting on you?”“Well,” he smirks, shrugging. “You didn’t want her, so I will put her talents to good use.” I laugh, shaking my head as Mallard walks out of the room. Mallard is my best friend, but more like a brother. We have always been each other’s wingmen, so I am not surprised he chose his top faves from my ‘no’ pile.I take a sip from my glass, glancing at the clock- Dr. Bally’s tests should be over soon and I will know if Annabelle will be able to be my surrogate. I close my eyes as I picture her in my mind. Her brown golden locks surrounding her angelic face, her pink lush lips and her soft voice… I want her and oh, so badly.I thought Mallard was crazy when he brought up the idea of a virgin being my surrogate but the more I picture Annabelle’s untouched body in my mind, the harder I get
AnnabelleI haven’t seen Kira this happy since she was offered a job to work at the castle. She is absolutely ecstatic about whatever happened, and I can't wait to hear about it.“So,” she smiles, pulling onto the road towards my house, “Today I was offered a live-in position at the castle!” she beams. My mouth opens wide in surprise, and she nods, “Yes!!! I know it’s crazy. It’s a very hard position to get, but somehow, I was promoted and that’s not all!”“That’s amazing, Kira!” I begin, but she cuts me off, her excitement biting my words short.“I know, Belle and the best part is,” she pauses as she slams on her brakes, pulling the car to the side of the road. “There is privacy!” she exclaims. I stare at her very confused, and she giggles, grabbing my hands, “Belle! Rae can move into my quarters! She can stay hidden there while you live in the castle! You can get her away from Mrs. Lynch and you can still see her!”Her words don’t quite register, but I feel faint again as they do,
AnnabelleI breathe deeply in- thank the lords he did not notice my shoes, but now I am worried about so much more.My heart is racing as I follow Dr. Bally to the medical quarters: I lied-- I do have somewhere I need to be, but how could I say no? What will happen when I am not home on time? Will Mrs. Lynch go after Rae? I know I’ll be in trouble, but this is my only chance!I can't believe I embarrassed myself in front of the king like that, and yet, he still chose me! I think that if I had told him I had to leave, I would have ruined everything.“Don’t be nervous, Annabelle,” Dr. Bally’s sweet voice snaps me out of my thoughts as we reach a door. “I know King Madden can be intimidating, but he chose you,” she smiles, opening the door and waving me in. “All we need to do is a few tests and then we can move forward.”I nod, pushing my shaky voice aside, “Thank you,” I say smiling. “And thank you for calming me down after I fainted,” I say, feeling my cheeks heat with a little embarra
MaddenAs Mallard and I stand, peering over Miss Mason, I am not sure if I should cradle her in my arms or splash water on her face; how did she pass out like that?“What the hell?” Mallard gasps beside me. I nod slowly in shock but finally come to my senses, allowing my feet to move. I quickly bend down and gently pick up the woman with the golden-brown locks in my arms. I look around the room, deciding to place her on a sofa lounge chair in the corner as Mallard panics beside me, “Do we call the doctor Madden? Do you think she’s ill?” he asks, his eyes wide.“Yes, call the doctor,” I say as I gently move a piece of hair from her cheek. Mallard nods in a panic and quickly disappears into the hallway, but I hear him shouting to the guards about how Ms. Mason has fainted, and the doctor must come right away.I bet he’ll never ask me about taking on more responsibility again.“K-k-k-ing Madden,” Ms. Mason stutters beside me, and my eyes dart back to her. “I’m so sorry,” she stammers, qu
“How long do I have again?” I ask Rae before I gulp, trying to avoid looking in the full-length mirror that stands in the corner of the room. I am wearing one of the many nice dresses that Mrs. Lynch owns, but as I touch the blue lace, my nerves cringe throughout my entire body.I thought getting the interview would be the hard part, but now I realize I have to crush it. I’ll have to stay true to the person written on that application; that may be more challenging than I initially thought. While most of what I wrote is fake, I tried to stay true to who I am, but I am not a Noble-- I am not sure I can pull them off the etiquette one would possess.“You’ll have till dinner, Belle,” Rae reassures me. “That’s way more time than you need.” She says with glassy eyes as she scans me. “You look absolutely stunning! King Madden will definitely choose you,” she says, finally placing her hand on my shoulder and urging me to face the mirror. I slowly turn around to see myself as a proper Noble f
Madden“And you are willing to commit to living here until after the baby is born?” Mallard asks the third candidate he has chosen from the green file folder. I watch as she smiles brightly, but I am not impressed. She doesn’t hold any qualities I am interested in, and I had already put her in the no pile for a reason…. Just like the others.“Yes, I have already spoken to my family,” she beams. “We have all agreed that you have the best medical staff here, and not only would it be safer for me but for the future heir of the kingdom,” she says, pulling her hair to the right side of her shoulder as her eyes meet mine.Mallard nods, tapping his pen lightly against the candidate score paper as he thinks over her answer, making me smirk.Ever since I gave him the responsibility of choosing, he has become very serious about every girl who has walked through these doors to interview…. serious is something Mallard rarely is, and I must say, I am impressed. “And Ms. Cultry, have you ever had
Annabelle“These are all the documents?” I ask before grabbing the large envelope from the forger. I watch his beady eyes scan me as I open it and examine each one to make sure he isn’t trying to deceive me, but the crook is telling the truth. I sigh in relief. Everything I need to become the Dragon King’s surrogate is here: A new birth certificate, a fake lineage line, and a fake certificate of noble blood to boot- the most important one I need.“Yes, they are all there,” He smirks before leaning back in his chair. “Did you bring the money?” I nod, reaching beside me into my knapsack and pulling out the largest wad of cash I have ever held.I’m not proud of how I got this, but I am out of options, and sometimes, you must beg, kill, or steal when you are on your last prayer…. and it’s not being answered.I just hope this is all worth it….I take a deep breath before handing him the money, reminding myself that this is the only way to save my sister’s life; I must do this. He snatches...
