KING LEONIDAS POV

It was mid morning and I was already half done with the bottle of alcohol I opened at the crack of dawn. The burning sensation did nothing for me. But habit stopped me from abandoning it. The door opened and Cara walked in, a displeased look on her face.

“You still drink” her murmur of disapproval reached my ears.

“Nothing will ever make me stop” I said pointedly and poured myself another glass.

“Care for a drink?” I offered, knowing what her response would be. She shook her

    I looked between Melanie and King Leonidas. Their conversation had stopped as soon as I entered. “I can wait outside” I said immediately and turned to leave, wondering why he had called for me when he was busy. “No. We’re done” she said pointedly, turning back towards his desk. “My lord…” Melanie protested and he growled at her. “Leave” she got to her feet immediately, her lips pursed and eyes angry as she walked towards me. I ignored her gaze and walked further into his office. “Where were you?” He asked with a frown and the door closed right after. “Library” I answered simply. He narrowed his eyes and walked closer, sniffing the air. “And who were you with?” “Christopher. He came in while I was there” he muttered under his breath with an angry growl. “What did he say to you?” “N-Nothing” I stuttered, unwilling to share what Christopher had said to me. “Are you sure?” He prodded and I nodded, avoiding his gaze. “You mustn’t listen to anything he says. He talks crazy most

    KING LEONIDAS POVIt was mid morning and I was already half done with the bottle of alcohol I opened at the crack of dawn. The burning sensation did nothing for me.

The door opened and Cara walked in, a displeased look on her face. “You still drink” her murmur of disapproval reached my ears.“Nothing will ever make me stop” I said pointedly and poured myself another glass. “Care for a drink?” I offered, knowing what her response would be. She shook her head immediately. “Where is Christopher?” I asked curiously. I liked it more when they were together. Christopher being alone meant he could go off to do whatever he pleased. And Christopher loved doing things that made me furious.“In his bedroom still sleeping. He returned late” I hummed. “Have you been able to find anything?” She shook her head. “It was like it never happened” “Well, it did. Rebeccah was out for three days. That’s why I called you in” “We’ll get to the bottom of it”“I

    The sound of the door opening eroded my wandering thoughts. Arin entered with a warm smile on her face. “You look well rested” she praised. I scowled as I disappeared into the bathroom. One look in the mirror told me she was right. After a nightmare like that, it should have been difficult to get any sleep for the rest of the night but I’d managed that and I knew exactly why even though I wouldn’t admit it out loud. After my shower, I dressed in simple clothes and stepped out. Arin had changed the sheets and had my breakfast out for me. “I’m thinking of taking a walk” she frowned at me. “I don’t think it’s a good idea. That incident just happened. You should stay indoors or you’ll be framed again” I considered her words and truly, it was possible to be framed again but I didn’t want to sit in the bedroom and mope around all day. Besides, after Lauren had been ousted so easily, nobody would be crazy enough to try to frame me again. “I can’t stay in here all day” I told her and she

    "Rebeccah....Rebeccah" my name was a soft whisper in the wind. I tossed in the empty bed, trying to go back to sleep but the voice came again. "Rebeccah" the soft whisper caressed my bare skin. I open my eyes and recognize the room immediately. I jumped out of bed and ran towards the door. I ran down the familiar hallway, the floorboards creaking under my feet. I stopped in the doorway of the living room. The familiar figure was in her usual chair, rocking back and forth while she hummed a soothing tune. I ran towards her, throwing my arms around her tightly, and buried my face in her neck. "Paula" I cried with affection. It had been too long since I touched her. So long that I almost forgot the feeling of warmth she brought me.“I missed you” I cried into her neck. Her calloused palms ran over my arm in a gentle rhythm. "I've missed you so much" I mumbled again, tears clouding my vision now."My child..." I froze and jumped away at the sound of a strange voice. It was light when

    Our lips danced against each other. Wet and sloppy, desire burning through us. I should have pushed him away but I forgot how to think the moment our lips touched.His fingers framed my face as the kiss deepened and I found his shoulders, holding onto him as he kissed me senseless.My lips parted and he rolled his tongue against mine. I moaned into the kiss, heat spreading through my body. His teeth gently nipped my lips and a needy moan escaped me.He tore his lips away from mine, both of us breathing fast and hard. His movement was rough and uncoordinated, lifting me off the ground and throwing me onto the bed. I bounced on it, hastily raising myself to my elbows as my chest rose and fell in quick succession. “I’m going to fuck you hard” he growled roughly, his eyes blazing with intent promise. A thrill ran through me at his words. The bed dipped under his weight and he tore the dress off me with a twist of his wrist. My pussy throbbed and wetness gushed out of me.His mouth cov

    "W-what?" I moved away from her, staring at her in horror. "What are you saying?""That you are the one for him. The one who can truly help him""He has a mate" I corrected immediately, fear creeping up my spine."Based on a prophecy he could have misinterpreted? There are things that are very obvious. He acts differently around you. He's attuned to you more than he will ever be with Melanie""That doesn't mean anything" I said harshly. Inside, I was panicking. I didn't want anyone to make assumptions like this, to connect any dots. "It does. Believe me, it means a lot. I've known King Leonidas since he was a child. He has always been cold, uncaring...""He cares for you" I cut her off. "No. He cares for my loyalty. The moment he realizes I'm anything but loyal, he'll discard me. But with you, he doesn't care for it at all" I snorted. She had absolutely no idea what she was saying. If he ever found out that I'd stolen from him...I'd be the fastest kill he'd ever had. "You're adama

    She turned away and walked to the exit. She didn't say the words but I knew she expected me to follow her. I'd come to understand that some instructions didn't need to be uttered by words. And in this castle, those instructions were expected to be obeyed. No time for questions. I followed her, ig

    I didn't stop running long after I was out of that room. I narrowly missed bumping into walls because of my blurry vision. When my legs finally gave out underneath me, I was somewhere I didn't recognize. A narrow hallway. My hands shook as I pulled my knees to my chest. I'd murdered a man. An in

    I stared at the harrowing man that I'd traded places with Sarah earlier today just to avoid. His eyes burned into my skin, specks of gold dancing around the black pupils as he stared at me with an emotion I couldn't decipher. He was smiling but it didn't reach his eyes. His eyes told a different s
