The Book

I stretched to lift it. Careful not to slide it or to unbalance the stool. I was petrified that if it were to clunk or the book drop, he was going to wake. And though I didn’t personally know how awful he was, of all the things Warlord had told me, he’d seemed the most sincere about his worry of what would happen to me if the King caught me.Warlord would kill me now if he knew the risk I was taking.He’d made me swear to avoid the King and now here I was.In the very same chamber with him. Trying to steal his book from the very same room he’s sleeping in. I was still as I listened to ensure I was still hearing that consistent snore before I twisted with the book and clambered down off the stool. Not even bothering to move it back as I tucked it down the bulky front of my dress.I knew it gave me a square appearance and it was obvious something was there but carrying it was even riskier. I lifted my skirts and hur

The Potion

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

“A potion.” He turned to the next page. His head moving as he read down the page. He was leaned against the table. One fist propping him up, atop the table next to the binding. His legs were leaned back, and his shoulders were bent forward to hover over the book. Showing his intense interest in what he was reading.And his clear disinterest in my current panic.“I’d gathered that. But what?”What’s going to happen to me?Did he just poison me?He listed off several contents that sounded relatively harmless. Before looking up at me. His fingers still propped behind one page. “Relax. If I intended to kill you, I could’ve done it long before now.”“No, you couldn’t.” I said softly.“What in all this country, would make you think that?” His brow furrowed.“I’d raise the roof screaming.”“No o

What's Next

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

I’d blinked up at Killian. Unsure how I could possibly respond to him confessing that I had made his heart beat again. And that he suddenly wanted to live the remainder of his life.I’d given him something to look forward to again. That warmed me in deeper places than even those he currently stroked.I sucked in my lip as I fought a twining climax which rose higher and higher like a great wave that would inevitably come crashing down in a wild tirade.When it did, I lifted my head to let him watch me. My lips parting as I panted desperately for precious breaths of air which now seemed far too hard to collect.The night had been filled with lovemaking which had been completely different then all before.Warmer. More sultry and filled with a sort of emotion he hadn’t revealed before.Only in the middle of the night, did I sit up as I fully took in what he’d said earlier in the day.When morning

Training Gardens

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

I found my self pacing the chamber as I waited for Killian’s return. Worried out of my mind. Feeling sick to my stomach.I heard the astonished cries coming from the Training Gardens, so I went to the hidden door to the balcony and flipped the lock, before tossing the slat of wood open and stepping out onto the balcony to watch the ongoing below.Doing as Killian had directed me before and staying from the edge of the balcony.Far from the King’s view.Below I could see the mages cheering as they crowded around Killian. With him showing them different things to do with the magic.Beyond them were the towering trees. The branches littered with bits of red that I now knew were hints that the Sentinels waited in those trees.Carrying messages from Killian to Aviari, The King of Creatures.***I ripped my attention from the trees and backed to the excited voices below.The men and women huddled

His Bed

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

Killian rolled his arms over each other until there was a swelling black billow coming from his forearms and rising upward until it wafted in tendrils which reached me up on the balcony like bits of strings.I found myself reaching out to grasp one. Stunned at how I was reacting.But Killian was waiting below as if he expected me to. His arms at his sides and the black smoke now coming from his chest, up to me.A mist full of life. A creature of its own.I swiped the tendril, and it swayed a bit in the wind of my movement. So, I moved slower this time and was able to pinch it between my fingers. Guiding it down and twisting it around the balcony rail.It latched on and took on a life of its own. Growing like a great vine. Twisting around the railing and clambering out from the corner for about three feet before it began amassing over itself. Growing thicker and hardening until it was something with substance.I leaned over the rail

A New Captive

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

Tanya looked every bit as astonished as I did.I can’t believe he said that.He’d announced that no woman was fit for his bed other than me.She was giving me a questioning look.Asking me what? I didn’t know.Not knowing how to respond, I shrugged.That was not something I never expected to hear from him.It felt like a vow.A promise to be with no woman but me.“You love her?” Tanya blinked slowly. Pushing his hand away.Thought her touch was light, he complied and let her slide down the wall to her feet.Clearly stunned at her bold statement.“I do.” He said flatly. Without looking at me.Somehow, I was even more shocked that he’d admitted it to a woman he hardly knew.It made it feel more real. Something with substance.“And you, him?” She asked me in shock.

Tanya's Fury

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

“Will escaping heal your wounds?” I questioned. Sensing I already knew the answer she’d give.She’s just told me the king violently attacked her.For all in the Training Gardens to see. I wasn’t sure that anything would’ve healed me if that’s what Killian had done.I suddenly realized the depth of kindness he’d shown in taking me slowly.In teaching me.That’s not the way of things in this castle. I realized with a sinking stomach. Registering fully, perhaps for the first time, how dangerous our getaway could prove.If I’m caught, I could be the King’s next plaything.He could do to me what he’d done to Tanya.That was what Killian had been so terrified of when he’d carefully disguised me before allowing me up to the King’s chambers.“No. Only killing the King will.”

Persuading Them

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

Arms wrapped Sunny from behind and Tanya’s voice rang out fiercely. “Was it necessary to scare the very life from her?” “Yes.” He said flatly. Sunny twisted, breathing raggedly as she got a peek at her friend. “How is he doing this?” She jerked from Tanya’s hug and walked backwards. I tried to skitter from her path but wasn’t fast enough. She rounded and spotted me. Looking like a terrified animal as her gaze scanned us all. “Wh-what d-do you want?” Tanya made soothing gestures. “Calm down, Sunny.” “I’m okay.” She slapped her face as testament. Showing she wasn’t an illusion. “Touch me.” Tanya offered her cheek. Sunny wasted no time in soundly slapping her. The tap of skin on skin ringing like a bell. “You’re real!” She covered her mouth to stifle a sob. “But he-” She gestured to Killian. “Tricked the King.” Tanya cut her off. “He could’ve killed me.” Her gaze lifted to Killian. G

Mages Everywhere

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

The next evening, came with the cries of the woman in the Girl’s Wing of the Guild. Making me cringe. The terror in her voice rang through the castle. And I was sure we weren’t the only ones cowering from that dreadful sound. She has some lungs. There’s power in that voice. A long pause cut the night. And we knew it was him telling the guards he was taking yet another up to his chambers. Never to be seen from again. And once more the guards allowed it. He tossed Alyssa in and slammed the door just as viciously as he’d done to Sunny. A show for anyone who watched. “Why do they let you keep bringing them up?” I blurted as he closed the door behind him. “Because I tell them I wish it. And they’d rather not argue with me. And we all know the King cares little when mages die.” “And they believe you’re killing us.” Tanya filled in. Alyssa was looking around at all of

She's Here

Warlord's Ward & Managing Mages/K.K.S.

She can’t possibly endure more. I thought. But Killian was already off. Heading back downstairs. That was the question he’d been asking. Could she take more? Willow was a creature of pure lust. The more Killian brought, the more she took. I finally had to rally the others to draw them to a far corner and feed them their rations. But soon they had returned to eat standing over her. Wearing those paralyzed expressions. I was too tired to watch. Soon going to sit with Killian at the table as he skimmed the pages. “You’re tired.” He put his hand over mine without looking up. “You should get some rest.” “How could anyone sleep through that?” I gestured to the snakelike pile of bodies on the floor. The moaning and slapping echoing through the room as Willow consumed their pleasure. Bending their will to hers as she fed their lust. A strange exchange, indeed.
