When the first whip landed on her back, all Elaina's mental and physical preparation fell flat. There was absolutely no amount of preparation that could ever prepare her for the pain.

Her body trembled, unable to absorb the entire shock from the whip on her skin. The spikes were already creating tears and some dug deeper into her flesh, drawing blood.

She didn't want to scream so she bit her lip hard till she drew blood. Everything became hazy from there on out because she was barely trying to recover when the second one landed on her back. This time she couldn't control her mouth as she let out a heart wrenching scream.

Her body was shaking uncontrollably, begging for the pain to stop but Elaina refrained from asking the king to stop. She had already made her choice and was ready to see it through even if it killed her.

Her only wish was that the whips came faster so she would be over it soon.

The third slash came and it coincidentally hit the the spot that a spike had dug into b

    Elaina had just quietly returned the scroll to Xavier's chambers and now it was time to move on to the next step of searching her old house from her childhood.She made sure to step out only after Xavier had left for his new alcoholic routine, she said to the guards by the gate, “I’ll be back soon, I'm heading to the palace to see the king”She had to lie to cover up her tracks incase Xavier returned to ask for her whereabouts. Him and the king seemed to have a disagreement so he wouldn't go looking for her there.Once she was out of sight, she changed direction and began heading to the kingdom's slum where the poorest people in the kingdom resided. She hadn't been there for years since she was taken by Tyler, which was mostly because he controlled her movements and the bad memories made her unconsciously choose to forget it. Now she was going there with hopes to uncover her true heritage, she wasn't sure of what she would find but tried to stay optimistic. The muddy street and the f

    "Run Elaina, Run” Aurora, Elaina's mother screamed at her as she fought off an intimidating darkness. “No, mother, I do not want to leave you behind” Elaina screamed back with tears trickling down her eyes like a waterfall. She had lost her mother before and didn't want to lose her again.“Don’t you worry about me, pumpkin. I'll be waiting for you to come back and rescue me but for now, you are not yet ready. Run away from here and face your destiny” she said with a little smile.Elaina could not understand what her mother was talking about but she reluctantly began to run away. She had ran a little distance when she turned to look at her mother. The darkness has raised her up by her neck and she was struggling to breathe. Elaina was frozen in place, contemplating whether to return or heed her mother's words. It frustrated her that she did not know what to do to rescue her from the darkness, it was too powerful. But at that moment, a tear ran down Aurora's cheeks and her voice some

    Elaina casually walked past Lord Xavier's chamber as if looking for something important for the umpteenth time. She subtly glanced at the door and when she saw the two guards were still guarding it, she almost hissed out in frustration. She had been hoping this was going to be a quick in and out but had neglected the fact that his chambers were heavily guarded like he had some bizarre secret he was hiding. She had planned to go in immediately after Xavier left that morning but the guards had prevented her till evening came. She tried to remain calm and observe the situation, she was sure that there was going to be a time the guards would leave their post and even if it was for a minute, it would be enough time to slip in stealthily. Elaina waited for a little while in her room before deciding to try again. She walked past his chambers and luckily for her, the two guards had left their post. ‘Finally’ she beamed in happiness and observed her surroundings for any spies before walking

    The familiar sound of footsteps and scent made Drake smile even before Elaina got to his cell. He quickly got up to welcome her as if she was visiting for the first time.“Morning Drake” Elaina greeted with a wide smile the moment she stepped into the cell.“Morning Elaina” Drake responded as he came forward and pulled her in for a hug. It was just yesterday they met last but it felt like eternity. Elaina chuckled and hugged him back, she missed him too. That was why she showed up so early in the morning, she had been doing that for the past three days since she began residing at Xavier's manor.Her visits were now longer and frequent, she would show up at the dungeon very early and leave very late. Drake didn't complain, in fact he loved having her around. He felt at peace with the bothersome estrus gone, it was as though an incomplete part of him was beginning to fill up. “I brought some food for you” She said as she handed him a small basket. “What? Xavier let you bring this for

    Xavier quickly dusted himself up and followed the king to the courtroom, he used his magic to clean himself and heal the minor scratches. He didn't like being beaten like a peasant but he was left with no other choice.“We had just parted ways earlier this morning, why in god's name are you here and even decided to shamelessly attack my guards? Have you finally gone insane?” Alfred asked irritatedly as he took his seat.Xavier bowed very low and said, “It was not my intention to cause a ruckus in front of the palace but I couldn't hold myself back when I heard your guards lie about your whereabouts. They are spreading misinformation in doing so and I…”Alfred cut him off, annoyed, “Point of correction, I gave them the instruction because I needed some time alone to think. Am I not allowed to do that?” Xavier's bow deepened “Of course you are, my king. Please forgive me for my insolence, it's just that we seem to have grown apart recently. We used to talk about the kingdom's affairs a

    “What? I do not understand what you mean?” Elaina asked, her heart beating fast in worry. Did Xavier know that she got intimate with Drake last night? If he did then it would mean trouble for them.“I mean how the beast healed you. I'm curious because I saw how beaten up you were, no one would have been able to save you” Xavier answered casually when he observed her subtly.Elaina was relieved to hear he was only curious about her healing, “Well, you could say it was a miracle, I was unconscious for most of it so I am not privy with the details and Drake didn't tell me either. I have mostly been asleep too, we haven't had time to talk” she explained, avoiding his eyes by focusing on her food. Xavier nodded slowly, “Hmmm, is that so? You were in a terrible state so it's understandable that you would be extremely exhausted to sleep all through the night. I was hoping Drake told you his healing secrets, but nothing else happened you said?” he asked againElaina nodded, “Yes, nothing hap
