She misses home. Most importantly, she misses seeing Callan. Once, she gets back home, she will try to find a way to make seeing Callan possible. It's been so many months, it's like an ache in her flesh. She has been very lucky for the past two weeks, the king hasn't summoned her to perform her duties to him. He hasn't summoned her to warm his bed. But, she isn't sure how long her luck will last. The thought made her restless and wary. Henna was walking rig

🌺🌺IN THE KINGDOM OF NAVIA🌺🌺   Callan rose from the bed when he couldn't sleep anymore. He was sweating profusely from the nightmare he just had.   Bids and pieces of images that doesnt make sense, filled with screams and human torture. He knows it's slavery at it's peak, and that was one thing he knows for sure about himself.   He is a slave and he was left for death. A young woman saved him somehow and an old woman saved me too by bringing him to this kingdom. A privileged woman in this kingdom has been so dedicated, taking care of him.   He knows her as 'Lady'. He address her as 'My lady' because he doesn't know her name. She comes her all the time with her personal maid, bringing him foods and herbs, and helping him.   He will forever be grateful to her, even though he hasn't seen her in a long while.

Take this." At the soft but firm command, Sally reached out with both hands and took the wrapped package. Her eyes widened to unbearable degrees. It's a small bag of coins. "You can pay dowry with that on your wedding day." He said. "Thank you so much, Your Highness! Thank you so much!" Sally gasped, her heart filled with gratitude. Her hands trembled as she held the unexpected gift with both hands like a cherished feat it is. She has been worried sick about how to get this money, and even though she has saved up, it's never enough. She has hidden it from Danika so that her princess wouldn't worry herself sick. And, here the king is, offering her this large amount of money. Her knees hit the

I know he will be happy for me on this day, if he was here." King Lucien blinked hard and shook his head to get Chad's heartfelt words away from his mind. But, the words kept whispering into his mind over and over again, until he drew taut with tension like a drawn bow. If only Declan was alive... Chad had made the innocent comment after his wedding while he was greeting and thanking him for attending his special day. He'd clamped his mouth shut immediately he said those words and apologized regretfully. "Declan is not some forbidden topic, just because he's dead. It's okay, Chad." Those were the words the king replied with. But the harm has been done. If only Declan Declan was still alive... If any of his family was still alive

Just in case... uhm, you have to be prepared."   Danika would have refuted the mistress's notion, but she was too worked up to try. Indeed, the king is not big on foreplay and he doesn't like to be touched, but he is different with her.   That gave her a pause. He is different with her.   Surely, everything will be alright. That, more than anything, calmed her.   She took the gel from Baski, entered the bathroom and used it. She came out a minute later and walked towards the door.   "Danika?"   She turned at the sound of Baski's voice. "Uhm?"   Baski hesitated, "The king is a very damaged man. He might look well on the outside, but he is broken on the inside. He n
