All Chapters of Realm of the Chosen: A Reverse Harem Romance: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Sitting next to the queen for the morning meal wasn’t nearly as difficult as it had been the night before because Rona was chatting with Nill on her other side and hardly even looked at Kit. Not having to pretend she wanted to grab the crown from atop her mother’s head and run off with it made it easier to eat her eggs.Eli did look better, but he was obviously still in pain. Kit tried not to stare at him too long because the last thing she wanted was to bring her mother’s attention to the fact that Kit was aware he was hurting. So... she spent her time looking at the other men, trying to decide what to do with each of the ones she hadn’t Roomed yet. Until her eyes fell on Pierce.He was sitting next to Zane and across from Asher, and they were having what appeared to be an amicable conversation. Kit wondered what could possibly be going on inside of his head. Did he truly think that the queen could manipulate the Choosing enough for Pierce to b

He was running his fingers up and down her arm, a soothing sensation, but also arousing. The scent of his woodsy cologne and the feel of his pectorals beneath his clothes had Kit’s mind going elsewhere. She became aware that he was having similar thoughts when his manhood began to harden against her bottom. Thoughts of the way Landon had taken her the night before came to mind. It had been exciting to try something different, and he’d been able to drive in so deeply, Kit felt herself getting wet just thinking about it.But it wasn’t Landon she wanted right now, nor did it have to be in that new, interesting position. She’d take Cassius however he wanted, wherever he wanted. Knowing his thoughts were in the same place, she leaned up and found his lips. He was wanton, and opened wide, devouring her mouth in a hot kiss that left Kit gasping for air. His hand lifted from her hip and kneaded her breast which suddenly had far too many layers covering it.

Taking a deep breath, Kit told Danyen, “I believe there is a spy among us, that one of the Representatives is actually working closely with the queen. But I don’t know how he may be accessing her. None of my guards have ever seen him in the hall that leads to her chambers, save for when we are all attending an event on that side of the castle, of course. I need to know if he’s truly in cahoots with her, or if I’m mistaken for suspecting such deviousness.”Danyen’s brown eyes narrowed slightly before he said, “Pierce?”Once again, Kit felt relieved. “Yes, and since your room is so very close to his, I thought perhaps you may have some insight. And if not, perhaps you’d be willing to help me gain some.”Brushing back his light brown hair, Danyen leaned back against the settee in thought. Kit decided to give him a moment before she pressed on. Eventually, he said, “He leaves sometimes in the mi

On her way to find Cassius, Kit thought about what Danyen had revealed to her. It made little sense that Pierce would be going to meet the queen considering the route he had taken. But what else could he be up to?Cassius was in the Representatives’ lounge, but he wasn’t telling a story. He was standing by the window, staring out at the courtyard, thoughtful. Kit almost hated to interrupt him, but she needed to get a move on. She waved at some of the other Representatives as she approached but made it clear she was there for one purpose only.He turned at her approach, and his expression changed from reflective to affectionate. “Back so soon, beautiful?” he asked, stooping to kiss her cheek. She wished it had been her lips but knew that was for the sake of the others. “How was your conversation with Danyen? Did he have the answers you seek?”“Some of them,” she replied with a sigh. She tugged on his arm, and he und

  The princess’s guards fell into line behind her, saying nothing, and Kit wanted to chastise them for also doing nothing. However, she was aware that the Commander of the Queen’s Guard had more authority than even her own commander, let alone the two guards who had gone along with her. If they truly had been needed, she thought they likely would’ve stepped in, but she didn’t know for certain. It made her question their loyalty more than she would have liked to admit. So many thoughts stirred through her head, so many things she needed to speak to Cassius about. With her guards behind her, it was risky. She’d have to wait until they were somewhere more private. The rage inside of her started to subside as she walked along, though she was still irate at discovering that nasty man with the horrendous scar had been the one to administer the strap to Eli. How had her beloved felt, standing there, taking so much pain from a man he could’ve bested if he’d want
