He could see her strength which had been earlier drained from her returning to her eyes as he kept giving her the soup. Soon, Brian noticed that her heavy eyelids had lightened and color returned to her cheeks . Either way though, she was still weak. She stared at him with those alluring eyes of hers for a while before shifting her gaze to the cup of water. She wanted water obviously, he noted and quickly brought the cup to her lips. She rushed it's content causing her a coughing fit that brought tears to her eyes. Easy now, he thought as he patted her back until she had calmed down a bit, bow she looked exhausted. He noticed that her eyes were rather red and had this swollen presentation. He had seen it earlier but had dismissed it as signs of starvation but now, he knew better. She had been crying before. Brian felt guilt stabbed as he knew he had been the reason for her tears. But then, she had been too strong headed and disobedient. He brought her another of the soup but she was h

She had slept for a really long time and by the time she was up, the sunlight was already making its way by forcing entry through the window. This was something else really, as she could not understand where the light was coming from. Arawa had to wake up quickly as the thought that the dungeon had been set on fire with her in it was the very first on her mind. She woke up with a start and had no idea she was actually shackled to the bed. The pull nearly broke the bones of her wrist that she had to flinch and wait for the pain to calm down. She registered her surroundings, it was oddly familiar. This was because she had been tied up to a corner in the room the night before, so it took some time before she actually understood where she was. It was the room of that guy who had been brutalizing her. So, it had not been a dream then, the time she envisioned him carrying her from the cave and also washing her up and feeding her; it had actually been real all through. That means, he had see

It took some time but eventually she was at the bath house. This was weird, they even had a big place where they took their bath, Arawa was thinking as she remembered hazily being put in a tub in that room. This was also some sort of public embarrassment for her. Washing up in an open space under his very nose. Yes, he lived up to his promise, he was there with a couple of guards to supervise. Although, as promised he did turn away so as not to look upon her nakedness but nevertheless, she was still very much uncomfortable. She was one drawn to her privacy. Even at the Wuwa river, when it was time for the women to wash up, Arawa made sure she drew to a far end and away from the others. She did not want anyone looking upon her nakedness. Now, these barbarians had to make her wash up under their nose. It almost felt like they had eyes at the back of their heads which they used to observe her entire body. She was worried and was at the edge, should just in case she noticed one of them tu

Arawa’s limbs were beginning to feel like rubber, her arms had gone numb and her pace with that mill stone had slowed down drastically. When initially, she was dropping her pace, the soldiers had been mocking her, making her feel dejected. Arawa nearly cried really, she had never been this stressed. She was sweating all over and worst of all, her clothes clung to her body. She had begun tasting what slavery entails. | bet you, right now she was beginning to wish she had not gotten on the barbarian nerve. She should have closed her loud mouth and understood that the situation was beyond her control. She had actually been about to wonder why the multiple slaves here could not bring themselves to fight their adversaries, but now she had gone through this tip of the iceberg, she understood that there would probably be no one like these barbarians. They had the Capacity to break anyone. She could barely see any more, eventually everything was blurry. The barbarian had given instructions on

He had to permit it afterwards because he obviously did not want to disappoint his brother who was out there paving the way for him. It was another new day and he had actually been wondering how Brian was faring since they left. It was while he was deep in thought with a naked slave woman working her mouth on his morning erection that the damn slave had to turn herself to his doorsteps with her silly announcement for an audience. He asked her to come in and could notice the old woman trying to avoid looking at him with his whore doing her duty. He had smirked and asked her to state her reasons for the early morning disturbance. She said she had gone to wake up Arawa and discovered she had been running a serious increase in temperature. She had to run to him to ascertain if the doctor could come look at her. For the first time she started talking and mentioned Arawa's name, he had been startled with the thought that possibly the princess had escaped. He had already begun envisioning him
