All Chapters of A Slave to the Kings: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Ayla POV   The day passed almost normally, apart from the fact that everyone was surprised to hear my voice... Of course, Charlotte asked the most questions and I tried to answer as best I could without actually saying that I'm Soren's mate. Apart from that, I also had to talk more about Victor and how I feel around him, which made me uncomfortable, because sometimes it felt like I was betraying Soren. In general, I didn't talk so much, I've got used to being quiet, but I know it's good to talk at doctor's appointments... In class, I was quieter, but I answered a few questions and Professor Liddicoat added another subject to the syllabus, which is diction. He's going to teach me the right way to pronounce words. I take a deep breath and look at myself in

Soren POV Ayla's movements increase the pressure and I can feel Strïth almost losing his mind, his instincts are speaking louder, and I can see him holding Ayla's waist, squeezing and helping her move.Each time she goes backward, the tip of his head slips into her entrance and this makes Strïth squeeze Ayla downwards, almost forcing a penetration, but it only slips and this makes them both scream with pleasure and frustration.I'm controlling his instincts as best I can, but I know that if this goes on any longer, he'll lose it.'Strïth! You can't penetrate her!' I shout at him.I know he's lost in the sensations because I'm the one holding his strength, not letting his nails grow, let alone his

Ayla POV I woke up scared, my body was aching, but it was unlike anything I'd ever felt, I could feel my heart beating, but it was heavier, more intense.Then I feel two arms holding me and I focus my gaze, trying to understand what's happening, and part of me panics."Ayla! Take a deep breath." I heard Soren's voice and blinked a few times, seeing his face for the first time.I start to do as he asks and my breathing slows down, as does the weight on my body, and a wave of relief takes over."That's it, little by little... It's me, Soren." His voice is softer, more melodious. Something I've noticed he always uses when he wants to calm me down."What happened?" I ask

Soren POV Keeping Ayla away from the Kingdom of the Wizards won't be that difficult, at least as far as I know, even though they're placing runes in specific places in the castle. During the two days that Ayla was resting, Victor, Ishtar and I went through the castle with a spell to identify magic and discovered four runes near the entrances to the imperial wing, which is where I stay, along with Victor and James.This obviously alerted the enemy and Ishtar said that there were probably more runes, but that they might have been deactivated since she couldn't locate the source of who had created the runes.At least for now, the wing we're in is free of outside magic, only mine and Ishtar's are here. It's not as if I can do much, but I do have a few magical tricks up my sleeve, I'm too old not to be able

Soren POV Ayla is asleep while Victor and I are sitting at the table, each with a tablet in hand. James' reports are not promising, tensions near the border of the Kingdom of the Wizards are rising.Several conflicts have arisen and James is trying to sort things out, only James is much more of an action guy than a diplomat... I know I need to send someone to help him."Victor... What do you think I should do?" I asked, hoping for an honest answer."You could send Charlotte, so she can try to resolve the issue as diplomatically as possible. She's always been a good candidate for this kind of conflict." Victor replied and sighed."The problem is that we don't know if we can trust the leaders of the Houses." I poi
