Sex slave to the enemy king

"What is the date today?""Mylady is seventeenth of lunar year, third month in spring."There was utter silence on the other side of the room for some minutes before the female sprang up suddenly and ran to the dresser."Oh!" Irises like opulent gems just like her mother and a healthy body that she possessed before. It was maybe a dream, a dream in which she was twenty and have returned five years before her death. But what was the use of all that, it was a farce altogether. So supposing it was a beautiful dream the said princess again went to sleep yet even after waking up after an hour or so nothing changed.She could feel the refreshment of cool water in which she bathe, taste the warm soup she drank and the feeling of lace on her body was also too real. Even her personal maid hummed the exact same song that she used to sing all those years ago.She had returned.The smell of inked papers filled the room, it was a familiar aroma that filled her lungs but also one of the most hated

Porcelain teacup from the east of the empire shattered into fragments as a soft, sweet voice that was peculiarly shrill at the moment echoed in the garden."What did you say?""M-Miss...Lady Layla has been asked to get engaged to Duke Valentine by the orders of the Duke." After that, the tea party that was going on with ladies from several noble houses did not truly matter as the woman got up from her seat with graceful movements, gentle eyes expressing her apologies as she excused herself. Lady Marianna despite being a sickly person controlled the aristocracy through iron reins of her will and had the high society within the palm of her hands. The way to the Everdale castle was somewhat blurry and as soon as Marianna arrived at the mansion she first expressed her desire to be taken to Layla who was preparing to leave for the rendezvous with Duke Valentine that was arranged without her wishes.The woman with dark blusish irises had a fiery temper but a weak constitution thus she huff

"Duke Everdale, there are not many in the aristocracy that I can truly rely upon. Avesta has been a long established empire and would have been invincible if it wasn't for Ardos, after engulfing existence of many neighboring countries, a war will begin sooner than later. That is why I wish for you to lead a diplomatic delegation to the King of Ardos. As a way of a last attempt to establish peace."Those were the words the emperor of Avesta conveyed to Damien Everdale, it looked as if the monarch was kind and benevolent when in reality it was an unspeakable truth that the journey to Ardos was filled with catastrophic adventures and thousands of warriors perished while trying to cross the confluence of seven seas bound by rugged mountains from three sides.It took them a month of journey, venturing the snow trapped hills of the rugged terrain and low lying valleys filled with wild beasts. Their horses were unable to sustain the cold aura of the place and succumbed to death, maybe that

The woman looked far away to the infinite horizon as her maid collected the heaps of letters that have accumulated onto the desk and put them away before wiping it with a cloth and stacking the tiny place with books containing the knowledge of herbs and alchemy."Lady, the duke and young masters have sent a letter today too..do you want me to......""No, just throw them away.""Duke Valentine has expressed his wish to come and visit you once before departing to the border areas."The delicate female did not answer but rather looked outside at the sun that was burning somewhat soothingly in the color of ruby before dipping below the aqua waters of the ocean.Layla sighed and without her knowledge tears gathers as dew drops on her lashes yet maybe with time she had become so stubborn and habitual to abuse that she refused to let them fall. It happened to be the death anniversary to the only one being that she had come to love and has lost so suddenly.She asked the disappearing sun god

Emperor of Avesta had sent a portrait of the lady who expressed her desire to marry the Grand Emperor of Ardos with a negotiation deal, but along with it there was also a very personal letter that was solely addressed to Icarus and not to his council that was seated in a military camp at the border of Avesta.The cabinet read out what was stated in the agreement- that Princess Layla, the daughter of Duke Everdale was a very dignified woman and hundreds of other such things, along with it there was a dowry offered befitting that of an imperial princess in exchange of familial relationship based on a matrimony. All in all, the king of Avesta wanted Layla to be married off well- duke Valentine had tendencies which were in the process of turning abusive, Damien was too worried about the duchy's pride and his sons were incompetent to decipher human emotions. It was better to be Ardos's queen than Avesta's daughter.Icarus unknown to such things paid little attention to the layman details
