Chapter 17
I snuggled deeper into my bed, enjoying the feel of the pillow beneath my head, "-dite, Aphrodite, rise up, open your eyes, Aphrodite," I groaned and rolled over, attempting to escape the nuisance that was pulling me away from my precious sleep, "Aphrodite, awake at once!"
"Hush!" I hurriedly exclaimed as I raised my head from my pillow and glared at Lydia with sleepy eyes, "do you not see me asleep?" I snapped at her, cranky that she was the one interrupting my sleep when she knew how much this meant to me.
"But-"
"Did I not tell you to not wake me, Lydia? You are my friend but this is un-"
"The master has requested your presence," she let out in a rush as she

Before I could react to those words, he had twirled me into his arms, holding me to his body with one hand above my bottom and the other clutching my hand. I gasped, looking up into his eyes that shined with an undefined emotion that caused goosebumps to appear on my arm, "I missed you," he whispered, gazing down at me with intensity.My lips parted as I stared up at him in awe, "you did?" I asked him.His eyes moved from my own to my lips, staring for a moment before they moved down to my exposed chest and the top part of my bosoms, "I have some wine and food for us to enjoy," his hand moved from my body but the other still held my hand.He turned and led me further into his chambers and I looked around, taking everything in.He led me to his bed that had a golden tray atop it. On the golden tray sat two

Master Abigor had walked me back to my quarters but turned and left halfway to my sleeping chambers after one of the male servants rushed to call him for something important.I looked at my door before I placed my hand on the handles and turned them, pushing the doors wide open. I was immediately met with dozens of eyes looking at me eagerly. My ladies in waiting rushed to me, quick to remove my clothes and jewellery.They led me to my bed and I sat down on it, tired and in so desperate need of sleep, "what happened?" Lydia asked me as they all looked at me with wide smiles and eager to hear what had went on.I paused, licking my bottom lip, "he is courting me," I stated unsurely as though one of them would interject and tell me he was not.Their faces were still, surprise swimming in the pools of their eyes before they all squealed in excitement and jumped onto my bed, looking at me, "Master A

"Lady Aphrodite, 'tis time to awaken," I heard a gentle voice whisper in my ear and I groaned, saddened that my sleep had come to an end. I would now face the day and be forced to stay awake until nightfall.I opened my eyes slowly and looked around the room, only finding Lydia staring down at me with a huge smile and excited eyes, "the courting has begun," she giddily whispered as though it were a secret.I furrowed my eyebrows, rubbing my hands over my eyes, "what is the meaning of what you are saying, Lydia?" I asked her, sitting up slightly as I gave her a questioning look.She gestured beside me and I turned to look, finding a tray filled with chocolates and sweets, "oh, my!" chocolate was a rare delicacy and the fact that I had a whole tray of them put a smile on my face, "chocolate!" I excitedly said as I reached for the tray so that I could indulge.I eagerly unwrapped the delicacy and

He had his legs open and I stood between them, but there was still some distance between us even though it was a short distance. I met his eyes with a bravery that I did not know I possessed, "have you caved, my Aphrodite?" he asked me with a cockiness only he could make seem attractive and had the buds of my bosoms hardening, "have you come to seek satisfaction from me, your lover?" he asked me as he sat upright and moved his hands off the table before he placed them on my waist and suddenly pulled me into his body.I gasped, my hands placed on his chest to catch my balance. He tightened his thighs, keeping me locked in place as his cold fingers began to dance on the exposed skin of my stomach, "because I would be more than happy to please you," his green eyes began to change colour as his voice dropped an octave.He leaned down, his face merely centimetres from mine. His pointy nose was pressed against my small, broad, button nose, "

"Good morning, Lady Aphrodite," my ladies in waiting greeted me as I stepped out of my bath and into my chambers, looking for my dress.I smiled at them, acknowledging their greeting as they rushed to continue their jobs of dressing me for the day, "is this to your taste?" one of my ladies asked me as she gestured towards the green dress that would be more revealing and provocative than the one I wore yesterday.I nodded my head, smiling as I thought about how Master Abigor would react. I felt powerful knowing that I could bring out such a reaction from my master. I didn't have to do much, never having to bend over backwards for him to desire me and what I could give him.Just a simple show of skin had my master being a lustful mess.As I was being helped into my dress I looked at my already made bed, my e

The sun had just set and I was standing on my balcony, looking out into the gardens and at the star covered sky. The moon was half full and I enjoyed the light that it provided as I watched the little flecks of orange fire light in the distance.Master Abigor's home sat at the very top of a mountain and we were surrounded by a thick forest, with big, beautiful, lush trees. Yet during the night the forest took on such a dark aura, it looked terrifying, so I always tried my best to stay inside whenever the sun set.I have come to the realization that Master Abigor disappears during the day, doing what? I myself wonder because am I not his most important task? As a woman that he is courting, I would presume that he would be available to me for 24 hours.I lightly scoff at my thoughts, such possessiveness and demand and we have yet to marry. I wanted to be the one who told him that I accepted his courtship and would gl

There was a definite shift in the air around the manor. Every person was lively and excited because word had spread within the castles walls that I was to wed Master Abigor and in a matter of time, the word will spread further and further until all will know.I am barely able to rid the smile on my face as my fingers delicately touch my lips and I think of how Master Abigor had kissed me under the moonlight on my balcony. I can feel my heart pick up speed as my mind is flooded with the memory of how it felt as though I were floating.His lips had felt so cold yet so good moving against my own warm ones. He held me in place as his lips explored my own and pretty soon our hands had been all over each other's bodies as though we could not possibly get any closer.I was pulled out of my fantasy at the sound of the oak doors being pushed open and I looked up to face my seamstress. I simply looked at the plump woman who

It was strange getting a request from Master Abigor to accompany him on a walk through the gardens. I, of course, obliged and simply covered myself in a fur robe that kept me warm against the harsh winds.He had yet to say a word since we stepped out of the mansions walls and walked along the pathway through the gardens, being met with various smells of his various flowers. I drifted off in my thoughts, wondering where our wedding venue would be. I partially wanted it to be in the gardens, among the most rare of flowers."My Aphrodite," Abigor broke the silence and I turned my head in his direction, looking up to meet his eyes, "what if I were to tell you that I hold all the answers?""All the answers to which questions, Master Abigor?" I asked him, furrowing my eyebrows in suspicion as I wondered what could be bothering him so much."The answers to immortality.""Immortali
