Chapter 5
When the air in his lungs emptied out, he brought his drenched head out of the water then ran his hand up his face and over his head. A deep sigh escaped as he recalled Aldridge’s words, ‘It is you who decides your happiness and future.’
'On one hand, I have to sleep with a man and do his bidding to stay out of that hell hole and if I do not, there is an unknown punishment and prison, maybe. I have never indulged in a man nor can I remember how copulation felt with that woman from the bar from before,' he thought.
Shawn’s mind revolved around Aldridge’s words without cessation while he scrubbed his body in the scented water.
A knock on the door removed Shawn from his thoughts that were followed by words, “Lord Seghatchian, breakfast has been served.”

She looked at the women and continued, “There are five of them, one for each day of the week but certainly, master can do whatever he likes.”“Why would he allow something like this?” Shawn asked angrily, especially after that ultimatum.“For you to make up your mind,” the servant answered as if she knew something and left the room after a curtsy.Shawn looked at the women then said, “All of you leave.”“Master, we will be executed if we leave,” one of the women said.Shawn looked at her speechlessly, it seemed that Prince Aldridge could predict everything but how is it that he is openly doing this?The woman went up to h

“Certainly,” she said and walked over. She pointed with her hand open and introduced them, “In this bowl, you have the red grapes which are used in the wines the regent family and aristocrats enjoy. In the saucer lined with silver, you have pitted red cherries, in the saucer lined with gold, peaches. In the bloom saucer, you have green apples and the last saucer has oranges in it.”Shawn nodded his head in understanding and said, “When I was younger, my mother would buy us bananas but they would be ripened to the extent that it was sweet, do you have any?”The servant shook her head, “No my lord. In this estate, we neither have bananas because the Master is allergic to them and strawberries because no one besides her majesty is allowed to have them.”“Really?&rdq

“His majesty granted our master three desires in return for divulging the coup -- he told his majesty the truth about him and Lord Hillroge. His majesty was not pleased especially because his children were to be married away. He asked our master what was the reason behind him telling his majesty the truth one year later and it had to do with the three desires. One, his majesty had to overlook who he wanted to be with and he should never suggest marriage again. Two, grant that he and everyone who wanted to be with those of the same gender, be pardoned until the day our master died and three, that if he found someone of no status or from the prisons, said person would have his past erased and never be questioned,” Miriam ended her history lesson. Shawn sat back in the chair and looked at her baffled, “So I was pardoned of all my crimes?” “Yes,” she answered wit

He leaned down as he straddled Shawn with his knees to either side of him on the chair and pressed his cold lips against Shawn’s lips who immediately shook his head with a groan and opened his eyes. Shawn stared straight into Aldridge’s sapphire orbs then frowned.Aldridge raised a brow not happy that Shawn was frowning right after waking up and made to move but his movements were stopped by Shawn who held him down at the waist.Aldridge was surprised by this action and looked at Shawn intrigued as he asked, “What are you doing? Let me go.”“Where have you been for the last three days?” Shawn asked in a husky voice that made Aldridge tremble.Aldridge swallowed the pooling saliva and asked, “Since when does the master have to ans

Shawn hissed in pain and shook it out. His knuckles were bright red from being hit the entire time by Lady Majordomo's wooden spoon.She looked down at him and said, "No slouching and push your hair out of your face!""It won't stay down!" Shawn growled at her earning another wack on his hand. He bit down on his molars and said, "I am trying okay."Lady Majordomo scoffed and asked, "Sandwich's are eaten at parties why?""So that our stomach's don't get upset," Shawn answered listlessly."Good, now, make sure that you remember your table manners. Elbow's off the table, no slouching and in most cases, you will not sit at the same table as our prince. You will be at a safe distance even in the presence of his majesty and her maj

*Before Aldridge returned*Shawn walked through the estate mindlessly and aimlessly.Aldridge had said to him that he could choose his own fate. One, he could live under him and two, return to prison with the possibility of death on his head.He stopped at one of the window's and looked out of it at the night sky that seemed as lonely as ever. He dropped his head as his arms stretched out against the windowsill and thought, 'But to sleep with a man?''He did rescue me from living in that endless pit of nothing with rats for food,' he thought again.Looking at the darkness under his feet the image of Aldridge replayed in his mind when he climbed into the bath with his slim waist and wide hips. He released a shuddering breath as he felt his body buzz with goosebumps.He closed his eyes and thought back to those women with whom he spent the night with and frowned. Inside he felt nothing for them and yet when he thought of Aldridge who saved him

The next morning Shawn woke up and Aldridge was not in bed next to him. He frowned slightly disappointed but got up and looked out the window at the sky outside. The chamber had a view of the backyard and garden but the seats in the garden were empty so where was he?‘What happened to wake up together and the morning kiss?’ Shawn asked himself as he stretched his limbs. He made his way to the bathing chamber and got ready with a slight gloom overshadowing him. He dressed up in casual wear that was suitable for training then went in search of this Prince of his who already broke a promise.He met the servants along the way to Aldridge’s office and asked as he looked at the multiple teacups counting two extra, “Is Master in his office?”“Yes he is Lord Shawn,” one of them answ

Leonardo and Richard took forever to leave displeasing Aldridge who wanted to clear the air with Shawn and when they finally did leave, it was already evening and Shawn was not seen at lunch and dinner even though he was invited to eat with them.Aldridge went around asking where Shawn was and it was only when he spoke to Miriam that he got the report that Shawn was asleep in his chamber and the chamber servants attested her words.Aldridge rushed to the chamber and opened the door. Peeking his head in he saw that Shawn was lying across the bed without a shirt on and on his stomach with his eyes closed and mouth parted.Aldridge walked over silently and climbed on the bed. He kissed Shawn up his spine sending shivers all along his body then lied on Shawn’s back hugging him. Kissing Shawn on the side of his nec
