Axel's POVI stared at the Master with widened eyes. Am I right with what I just suggested? Is the Master really developing fondness for Madison?Master Stone turned his face away after he couldn't find what to justify his statement with."Are we... Are you sure you want us to go see Madison at Master Xavier's chambers?" I stuttered trying hard to sound better, so that I won't receive another slap."Why... Why should we go see her? She should carry her cross. She's a slave, and should go through what other slaves are going through" Master Stone snapped backing me.I scratched my head in confusion. Was I hearing things just now? Didn't I hear him say that he wants to go see Madison at Master Xavier's chambers?"Huh? But I thought you said you wanted to..." I was speaking, but he cut me short immediately by flaring up."Shut your mouth. You mustn't say everything you hear, why would I want to see a slave? She's just like a commodity, and nothing more" Master Lucien walked out of the roo
Mona's POVI sat at the other end of the bed still naked while Master Derek gulped down the bottle of water beside him. Beads of sweats rolled down my cheeks. All I feel right now is nothing but pains. The pains were excruciating especially in between my thighs. I wonder what could be going on with my friend Madison. How is she coping with the Master Xavier."You sit up here, and watch me while I sleep. You have to make sure that I don't get bitten by mosquitoes, because if I eventually notice that I got bitten by one, I'll have you punished severely" Master Derek warned.He lay on the bouncy bed, while I stood up standing beside him, and fanning him. Why are the masters so cruel?Standing up was a huge problem for me because of the pains I was feeling in between my thighs, but that's the least thing the Master cares about. All he wanted was for himself, not anyone else."Why are you being so lazy? Didn't you know that this is what it means to be a substitute before opting to help th
Emery's POVI paced around with so much annoyance. I can't wait for the master to get back home. Someone has to stop this wicked Lioness from tormenting me."What's going on Emery? Why do you look so worried?" Her friend asked her, and she heaved a sigh."I'm worried. I don't want Lioness to keep making me work like a slave, I don't know why she doesn't understand that I'm the favorite slave of the Master, so I'm not allowed to do the works other slaves do" I cried out, while Maria exhaled deeply."But you are a slave Emery. You don't expect any special treatment from Lioness" Maria snapped, and I glared hard at her."Sometimes I wonder why I got someone like you as a friend, shouldn't you be siding with me?" I yelled at her."Should I? You know the truth, you know the reason why Lioness despises you as well. As you can see, the master went out with the new slaves, I expect you to be in your best behavior, so that you won't keep getting into trouble with Lioness" Maria replied."What'
Axel's POVImmediately I heard the Master's voice, my heart skipped a beat. I can't let him see Mona if I really want her to survive.Mona went on her knees holding my left leg tight pleading for mercy. I don't why, but I have a very soft spot for her. I tried so many times to kill it off, but I never succeeded in doing that."Shhh... Do not make a sound, unless you want to implicate yourself" I mumbled, and rushed off to meet the Master."Master?" I walked to him, then bowed slightly at him. Master Stone stared at the corner where I walked out from suspiciously."What is going on Axel? What are you doing outside there when you should be inside the Castle?" He furrowed his eyebrows, and my heart skipped a beat. I know that I won't be in danger if he finds her, but I just feel bad for Mona because the Master won't think twice to behead her."Nothing Master. I was just so pressed that's why I went over there to urinate. I couldn't wait to get into the castle. I'm sorry Master" I apologi
Madison's POVI walked into the master's room shivering. To think that he actually wants to see the one singing this song made cold shivers run down my spine. What crime did I commit this time?I knelt in front of the master visibly shaking while he glared at me like I did something wrong to him."Who was singing that song?" The Master's voice was so cold, and that made me afraid the more."I was the one Master" Goosebumps ran down my spine. I was still in panic, and I prayed within myself that he doesn't punish me."Sing, slave" He ordered me, and I nodded my head. I tried singing, but since all eyes were on me, I felt so anxious."Please turn off the light Master" I pleaded, and he furrowed his eyebrows."Why should I do that? Are you going to give me conditions just because I want you to sing?" He glared hard at me, and I gulped nervously."I can't sing with the light on because of anxiety" I mumbled, and he signalled Axel to switch the light off, and he did.I started singing, and
Madison's POV:I gradually opened my eyes, and looked around the room in confusion. I can't even recall how I got to my room in the first place."You are awake?" That was Lady Delia's voice, and I quickly jumped up from the bed. She smiled faintly at me, and I gulped hard."How did I get in here, my lady?" I asked with eyes narrowed. The last scenario I remember was singing for the Master while he sleeps."It was Axel who brought you in this morning. The Master told me to give you some contraceptive herbs" Lady Delia handed the piping hot substance in the cup.My face countenance changed immediately I saw the cup of herbs. I don't need anyone to tell me that the content of that cup is really very bitter."Do I really need to take this Lady Delia?" I cried out, and she feigned anger at me. I bowed my head in guilt immediately."This is for your own good young lady. I'm sure I told you already what will happen to you if eventually you get pregnant" Lady Delia snapped, and I gulped hard.
Mona's POVThe pain I was feeling was excruciating. There were still sores all over my body because of the whipping I got from the cruel Master Karl.The sores were all open, and I was yet to apply any medicine on it. I know very well that Madison would really want to get me medicine, but I also know that she won't be allowed to leave without working at the fields.Groaning in pains, I sat on the bare ground in the room. The pains were becoming too much for me to bear, but I never regretted what I did for Madison. I'm just happy she's not the one going through the pains I'm going through now.Just then, I heard a knock on my door. My heart skipped a beat. No one must find out that I went to the valleys with the other slaves. I really picked up my blanket, and covered myself up with it."Come in" I managed to sound as if I was alright. The door creaked open, and Lady Delia walked in with a soothing smile. I heaved a sigh of relief the moment I saw her. She's the only one who could keep
Madison's POV:I was still shocked to hear the Master talk about pleasure. Ever since I got into the castle, I've never heard him talk of pleasure to anyone."Don't let me repeat myself Madison. Strip, and get on the table immediately" He commanded, and I nodded my head in agreement. It's not like I have any other choice, but to do as he ordered me to.The Master's face was expressionless as he faced the other side of the chamber immediately. My hands became so sweaty that I found it hard it unbutton my dress.I started removing my clothes one of the other. I took the hairbands I was putting on, and then my underthings. Soon enough, I was stark naked in front of the Master.Furthermore, I walked towards the table like he told me to. I don't why he prefers the table all the time. I shut my eyes tightly, hugging the table like it was the only thing that would save me.Then, I heard his footsteps approach towards me. My heart skipped a beat, and I bit my lower lips tight. Then I could fe
Madison's POVMy mouth and hands were tied. Only my legs weren't, but I still couldn't stand on my feet. Tears kept running down my face, and my nose won't stop running either. My hair was so messy, and all over my face. I felt so miserable. The room where I was kept was so dark, and cold.Who could have kidnapped me? I haven't done anything wrong to anyone?The door was kicked open, and someone walked into the room. Fear gripped me, and I felt a sharp pain on my tummy."Hello, Madison. Long time no see" I heard a familiar voice, and immediately I recognized who it was."Bianca?" I called out with fear in the trace of my voice."You recognized me so quickly, huh? Well, I just want you to go back to where you belong. You and I know that you belong here, you shouldn't be dining with the master" She laughed hysterically."Bianca, for the sake of my child please let me go. This child is innocent, and I know that you know how it feels to be kept in such a position when you're pregnant. You
Lucien's POVI slowly opened my eyes, and felt a warm body touching mine. My lips curled in a smile because I knew it was Madison. I turned to her, and touched her baby bump softly. I could feel the baby kicking, and I kissed her forehead.“She's so cute while asleep” I giggled. I heard a knock on the door, and sat up immediately.I knew it was Axel because he's always the first to come into my room every morning.“Good morning, master” He greeted, and I nodded my head. His eyes widened immediately he saw Madison on my bed, but he bowed his head immediately.“Tell the cook that I'll be making breakfast for Madison myself today” I said as I sat on the armchair, and put on my glasses.“Master?” He raised his brow in shock.“I didn't know you've become deaf, Axel. I just informed you that I want you to let the cook know that I'll be coming to the kitchen to make breakfast for Madison by myself” I snorted, and he swallowed hard with a nod.“Okay. I understand you, Master” He bowed before
Bianca's POVAll I felt was anger and humiliation. Stone actually sent me out of the castle just because of that bi·ch, Madison. They might think that this is the end, but little did they know that this is the beginning.“Mom, are we leaving the castle already? I'm so happy” Marvin jumped for joy, and I scoffed.“If you weren't my son, I would have slapped you hard on the face. Are you stupid? Why are you so happy that we are leaving such a beautiful castle? I thought you've always wanted to be a prince?” I glared hard at him.“Yes Mom, I've always wanted to be a prince, but I want to be a prince who is loved by his parents. The man you called my father doesn't love me, he has a daughter whom he loves so much and treats like a princess” Marvin bowed his head.“And the only thing we can do is to fight for your right, Marvin. I can't believe you're giving up, why can't you act like your mother for once?” I held his hand.“Mom, let's just leave the Castle. I want to go back to the States
Madison's POVI walked into the well-furnished with my jaw dropped. To be honest, if anyone had told me that I would be given such a room in the castle, I would have accused the person of lying.“Mandy, congratulations” I heard a shrieking voice, and the door was thrown open. Of course, I wasn't surprised to see Mona. She's the only one who would shout anytime she sees me.“Mona, thank you so much” I held her hand, and she giggled. With a shrug, she patted my hair. “Who else would I help if not you, dear sister? I told you I won't let you die, and I kept my promise” “I was so scared. You know how slaves who get pregnant for the Master are being killed, right? I was surprised when the master said I was an exception. You don't know how scared I was” I gulped nervously.“Haven't you noticed? I think the master has a thing for you, and that's the reason he made you an exception” Mona lowered her voice, and giggled.“Rubbish! What are you saying? You're wrong, he only kept me alive becau
Maria's POVI gave out a shrieking yell immediately as I got into the room. Emery was in the pool of her blood. Furthermore, I was so scared that I had to cover my mouth with my palms.“What is going on?” Some guards rushed into the room on hearing the scream.“It's…. Emery. She's been stabbed” I pointed to her cold body. They rushed to her, and carried her out of the room.I was still sobbing as Emery's corpse was laid on the bamboo bed outside the castle. The Master walked out of the castle with an emotionless face.“What exactly happened to your mistress?” He asked with his face fixed on Emery's lifeless body.“I… I don't know, Master. I just got into the room, and found her in the pool of blood” I cried bitterly.“Do you know anyone who could have killed her? I mean, is there anyone who has issues with her, or someone who doesn't like her?” He raised a brow, and turned to me. I quickly bowed my head.“To be honest, I don't know anyone who would want her dead. I only know someone w
Lucien's POVMy eyes narrowed the moment I heard that voice. The Master's child? What does that mean?To everyone's greatest surprise, it was Mona, Madison's best friend and a slave.“Who do you think you are? What made you think you have a say here? Shut your pit, and don't say a word” Bianca glared hard at her.“Let her, Bianca. Let her speak. What are you talking about, Mona? What do you mean when you say that I have a child?” I arched my eyebrows. “Mona, you promised not to tell anyone. Please I'm ready to die even if it means dying with the secret” Madison cried out, and Mona shook her head in disagreement.“I wanted to agree with you, Madison. But I'm sorry I can't stand here and watch you get killed alongside your secret. I just want you to know that whatever I'm doing is for your own good” Mona replied to her. With a roar, I yelled at them; “Don't let me repeat myself. What are you talking about?”“Madison is pregnant, master. You're the one responsible for her pregnancy” Mo
Mona's POV“Get a hold of yourself, Madison. I understand how you feel, but I want to show you that I'll do whatever it takes to see that I prove your innocence" I cried out.“How… how are you going to do that, Madison?” Madison replied. She was already so tired.“I don't know Mandy, but I do know that I'm definitely going to help you out. You know how important you are to me, you're the only family that I know. I was able to pick up some points from Mateo. I'll make good use out of those points, and I'll make sure that you're brought out of here” I sniffed hard.“Promise me Mona… promise me that you won't tell anyone about what we just discussed. I don't want people to think that I'm using it to set myself free. If you ever let anyone know about this, I know it is good news, but I'm certainly going to get into more trouble” Madison stared at me blankly.“What if it is the only way to let you out of here? What if it is the only way to save you from death? I can't promise you anything,
Mona's POVTears rolled down my eyes as I stared at Mateo. He was wearing a grin on his face, and all I felt was bitterness.“Tell me, why are you doing this? What has she done to deserve this wickedness?” I cried out.“What wickedness? I didn't tell on her, even if we were enjoying each other's company. Are you surprised that she's been sleeping with me?” He laughed hysterically.“You can tell me any other thing, but I know my friend too well. She will never have anything to do with you, why are you lying against her? She has done absolutely nothing to you, is that how much you hate her?” I sobbed.“You think anything is going to save her? The master saw her with me. It's not like he was told, he saw with his own eyes. Why are you not believing something that the Master saw as well?” He narrowed his eyes.“Because no matter whatever they say, I know my friend. I know what she can do and what she can't do. I trust her so much, and there's no way I'll believe anyone else but her” I sna
Lucien's POVI lit the stick of cigarette that I placed in between my lips, and puffed the smoke.“Get out, Bianca”From my voice alone, you can dictate how hurt I was. All I felt was betrayal and sadness because I never expected such from Madison. If someone had told me that Madison would have done what I saw her doing, I would have cut the person's throat.“Lucien, let me keep you company” Bianca seductively said, as she grabbed the bedspread. She used it to cover herself because she was still n*ked.“Are you deaf? Or do you by any means have a death wish? Don't let me repeat myself, I'll have your arm cut off” I spoke in between gritted teeth.“No, I'll leave” She snapped, and rushed out of the room with the bedspread she wrapped around herself.Tears circulated in my eyes again, and I blinked them back. I trusted her, and now this. I would have disbelieved this if I didn't see it.Likewise, I was still lost in thoughts when I heard the creak of my door. Furthermore, I turned aroun
