The Awakening of Slave Chapter 70: The Tavern
Senna’s POVThe tavern stood where the old supply depot used to be. I stopped at the edge of the street for a moment, taking it in. It hadn’t been here before.The structure was new. I noticed the new wood, the new supports. I could smell the fresh coat of paint. The windows were larger than most buildings in Sector 6. From the outside it looked like a really nice tavern. This had always been his dream, to open up a bar. He’d told me about it countless times.It was something we’d talked about doing together. It was the reason I was saving all my money. So I could help him fulfil his dreams.But by the looks of it, he’d come and done it without me. With my money. And with my best friend.I seethed.Kalev appeared beside me.“He’s in there?” Kalev asked in a low growl.“Yes,” I replied.“Then let’s go.” Kalev made a move to enter the tavern, but I stopped him. Kalev wanted to rip Kalen to shreds. I could feel his anger coming off of him. But I wanted to do this alone.This was my fight
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 69: Sector 6
Senna’s POVSector 6 looked smaller than I remembered. I noticed it at we approached.From the transport window, the familiar sprawl of uneven rooftops and narrow, dirt-packed streets stretched out in front of us. But it no longer felt endless. Was this really the place I’d grown up in? It felt like a lifetime had passed since I’d been taken from here and put on that bus with all the other participants.I wasn’t the same person anymore. No. I was stronger. More confident. And thanks to this victory tour, I had the eyes and ears of all the sectors. I could leverage that to do something important. Something meaningful.“It used to feel bigger,” I said to Kalev. He flashed me a sympathetic smile, but he didn’t say anything. What could he say? He couldn’t possibly understand the flurry of emotions inside of me as we approached my home.They had cleared a section near the central square had been marked off for the arrival. People had gathered to watch. Well, not just watch. They were there
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 68: The Victory Tour Begins
Senna’s POV“I’m not bringing him.” The refusal left my mouth. It came out sharper than I’d intended. So sharp that even the servants near the walls stiffened.Kalev didn’t react. His face remained gentle.“You are,” he said calmly.“No, I am not,” I replied firmly.“Yes, Senna, you are,” he replied.We stood across from each other in the center of the sitting room. Late afternoon light spilled through the windows.Our night of passion had changed things between us. I quivered whenever I thought about it. I’d given myself over to him in that bed.But we weren’t in bed right now. We were in the sitting room. And what happened in the bedroom stayed in the bedroom. In the light of day, we were just as we’d always been.And right now, there was tension between us.“This is my tour,” I said. “So it’s my choice.”“And you are my responsibility,” Kalev replied. His voice softened. He reached out brushed my cheek with his hand. “I am coming to protect you.”“I don’t need your protection,” I s
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 67: Passion
Senna’s POVLaying beside Kalev, I couldn’t sleep. I could hear him breathing beside me. I tossed and turned. The silk sheets were soft against my skin. A breeze blew in from the window. I knew I should try to sleep. But I just couldn’t. Verity paced inside of me. Orrin’s presence was keeping her up too.“I know you’re awake,” he said.His voice startled me. I’d thought he was asleep. I froze, not knowing what to say. For five nights we’d slept like this, side by side. I’d been careful to stick to my side of the bed. But truth be told, I hadn’t been sleeping well. Not with him beside me.The matebond was getting stronger by the day. Whenever I was near him, I could feel it throbbing inside of me. It was an aching, a desire that threatened to consume me whole.Lying there next to him, the heat from the bond pulsed between us. I swallowed hard. He was shirtless and I was painfully aware of his body next to mine.“You can feel it,” he said. “The matebond. Look at me.”I rolled over onto
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 66: The Flicker
Kalev’s POVViktor chose the location.The hunting grounds stretched along the northern edge of the Capital’s territory. They were a carefully maintained wilderness designed to feel dangerous without really being so. The trees stood tall and evenly spaced, while preserving the illusion of untouched land.The paths were subtle but deliberate. The nobility went there to hunt pretend they were surviving something wild. But even the animals here were controlled.Every animal was tracked. They were specially bred. They were released in calculated numbers to guarantee they could be hunted with certainty.It was all smoke and mirrors, although none of the nobility actually openly recognized this.“It’s been a while,” Viktor said as we stepped onto the main trail.The morning air was cool. It carried the sharp scent of pine and damp earth. Sunlight filtered through the trees in pale strips.“Yes,” I replied.Viktor had asked me to go hunting. I’d almost refused. But then I decided to go. Mayb
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 65: Victor Privileges
Senna’s POVThe paperwork arrived in a box. I was sitting at the dining room table nibbling on fresh fruit when the servant came in.It wasn’t a folder or a thin stack of documents tied neatly with ribbon. It was an actual box. It was large enough that the servant carrying it had to brace it both hands. He entered without meeting my eyes and set it carefully on the table in front of me.“Victor privileges,” he said stiffly. Then he left before I could answer.The door clicked shut behind him. I set down my fruit and stared at the box for a long time.It looked expensive. It was made out of dark polished wood with brass corners. The crest of the Capital carved neatly into the lid. Verity stirred uneasily beneath my skin.“I don’t like it,” she said.“I know,” I muttered.Slowly, I lifted the lid.Inside, the documents were arranged with care. They were separated into sections by thin dividers. Every page was crisp. Someone had spent a lot of time making this look clean. It was all very
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 30: Water Snipes
Senna’s POVWe all gathered at the foot of the ravine wall. It was steep, so steep, that I wasn’t sure we could make it up. But then Verity went to work.We watched thick, green vines grew from the side of the wall. They grew in such a way that some of them were clear foot holds and others hand gra
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 26: One Night
Senna’s POVThe fire burned low. No one sat too close, but no one sat too far either. It had been very awkward at first, all of us sitting around the fire. These were literally the people that had threatened to kill us on the first day on the island. I’d shot an arrow through Korrigan’s foot.And n
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 25: Alliance
Senna’s POVKorrigan stood at the front of his group. He fixed me with a sly smile. My heart hammered in my chest. Above us, the wisps floated around, ready to follow us the moment we were in their eyeline.It wasn’t a good situation. Motioning for Thistle to stay behind me, a bead of sweat broke o
The Awakening of Slave Chapter 24: Locked Out
Kalev’s POV“Fuck!” I slammed my fist into the desk.“Override the wisps deployment,” I declared loudly. With my eyes darting between the game’s screen and the keyboard, I was on the verge of panicking.I hadn’t sent in those wisps. I hadn’t deployed any wisps. I was still gutted over the council m
