A nudge to my elbow and my father’s hushed words, “Bow down to him in respect” made me break eye contact and lower my head. I slightly bent down, showing my respect to the warlock in front of us. Keeping my eyes to the ground, I saw his tall legs disappear from my view. He walked around and opposite us as he sat down on the large sofa. He was a natural leader. My father hastily turned to look at Lord Blade and bowed in respect again before saying, “Lord Blade, what a pleasure to meet you again!” I still kept my head low, so I couldn’t read the warlock’s face. “The pleasure is mine, Gerald. Now, if you’re done with the formalities, please sit down” his voice was deep and low yet intimidating enough to scare me. Chills ran down my spine and I hesitated for a moment to sit down on the sofa along with my father. I continued to keep my head low, not wanting to upset my father and Lord Blade. I did not wish to get into trouble and be punished. “So, Gerald, have you come to pay your deb

We had our meal in silence and I ended up eating a lot more than Lord Blade. I had told myself to eat lesser portions to not come off as rude and uncultured; but alas! I couldn’t last long.Lord Blade didn’t seem to mind much. By the time I had finished eating, Lord Blade had already left for his business. Grace was nowhere in sight, so I had to make my way back to my room. Since I remembered my way around the manor, it wasn’t difficult for me to find my room.As I neared my room, the door to Lord Blade’s room opened suddenly which caused me to yelp in panic and I landed on the floor. That simplest action of door opening was enough to make my heart stop beating.I slowly looked up at Lord Blade to find him looking at me, but not my face. I followed his gaze and realised my legs were spread apart slightly, causing my red knicker to be visible. Feeling embarrassed and conscious, I clamped my legs shut which snapped Lord Blade out of his daze. “You need to be aware of your surroundings, M

Trigger warning: Mentions of rape and sexual assaultI found myself back in my room. It was the middle of the night as I laid there in my bed in my pyjamas. Someone walked through my bedroom door and the I heard the click of the door lock.My heartbeats started to race as the shadow came closer to my bed. There, from the little light emitting from the streetlights outside poured through my window, falling directly onto the shadow. It turned out to be my uncle, who sneaked into my room.Just as I was about to ask for his sudden intrusion in my room, my body froze. I couldn’t move, nor could I let out any sounds. He had casted a spell on me. Fear began to creep inside me as I anticipated his next move. I had a thousand thoughts running through my mind. I was truly scared of him.He flashed me a malicious smile and got into bed—more like on top of me. I desperately wanted to scream but no voice came out of my throat. Tears were streaming down my face, tickling my ears and then falling on

The sunrays fell upon my face through the huge balcony window. Slowly turning to my side, I opened my eyes and sat up. I rubbed my eyes and looked around in the room. It was slightly lit up with the sunrays falling through the balcony.It was also a reminder of what my father had done. He gave me away to save himself and his business. The sadness crept into my heart, daring to bring tears to my eyes. I inhaled deeply and closed my eyes for a few moments before deciding to proceed with my day.Getting out of bed, I directly went into the bathroom. Drawing a warm bath, I stripped and submerged myself into the calm of warm water. The tension in my muscles relaxed as my mind slowly started to clear out. As much as I wanted to confront my father for such a low move, I was also afraid of his response. Ever since I was a child, my father didn’t bother to acknowledge me as his own. It was as if he had this personal grudge against me which I never understood. He would be very calm and composed

As soon as I entered my study, Caspian followed me inside. "Had you not interrupted, I would've extracted the truth from her!" my cousin almost yelled in anger. "And how did you plan on doing that?" I raised a brow and crossed my hands on my chest as I leaned against my desk."I would cross question her. They usually run in circles and then give up when there's no way out" he answered. I shook my head and sighed."That's not how it works. Trust me, I'm as curious as you are; but this is not the way to extract that information from her. She is a timid little girl who just reached her mid-twenties. We need to be patient""You are being a little too casual about her. She is just your mistress, Blade!""I'm not being casual, but rather careful. Just think, if I were to start suspecting her almost immediately? She would try to come up with lies. But honestly, she's a weak mage. So the more we act nice, the more she'll be vulnerable. It gives us time"Caspian seemed to understand as he slig
