I collapsed against Elias' bed as he continued to relentlessly fuck me. Moans erupted from my lips as his thrusts sent me into convulsion after convulsion. This was the fourth time now; no matter how many times he went, he just continued; it was like he was insatiable."Enough...." I panted as I began to reach my limit. "I can't...."Ignoring me entirely Elias lay atop me while using his mouth to cover mine, stopping my protests as he continued to move, shoving his dick deep into me and pulling it out again and again.Satisfied that I was done protesting, his mouth released mine so that it could find my neck once more.As more of his venom entered my system, I felt a new round of energy overtake me, causing my body to enjoy what was being done to it all over again, even if just minutes prior I hadn't."That's right." Elias' voice spoke within my mind. "Just let go and let your instincts take hold."I couldn't stop myself from thinking he was right. I should just let myself enjoy and be

It took a week for me to be released from the infirmary, and within that entire time, Elias hadn't come once to visit. Even though I hated to admit it, I couldn't help but find myself feeling disappointed. I knew that it was a good thing that he was keeping his distance; after all, the less he was around me, the fewer chances of trouble there were. However, I couldn't stop myself from hoping.Wilson greeted me happily as I made my way out into the hallway. It seemed that Elias had at least sent him to escort me back to my room."How are you feeling now, Miss Valerie?" The old man asked as we began making our way to the servants wing.Examining Wilson I couldn't help but notice that he looked extremely pale and had dark circles underneath his eyes. Healing bruises littered his cheeks and neck."What's wrong?" I asked, unable to contain my concern. "Who did this to you?""Nothing is wrong." Wilson insisted smiling, even though that smile didn't reach his eyes."You look exhausted and are

Ice-cold water pressed against my skin as I snapped completely back to reality and spurred me to begin to struggle in an attempt to free myself from its hold before the creature drug me any deeper into the water. I couldn't help but wonder exactly where my guards had gone and how they had allowed this to happen. However,I wasn't going to go down without a fight with or without them; I needed to break free soon."Just give in." The creature cooed, flashing its sharp teeth at me. "There is no one to help you now."I could feel that it was attempting to use its enchantment on me, but this time I was mentally prepared. Keeping focus on the cold around me, I remained focused as I grabbed the creature's wrists and twisted until its grip on my head loosened before finally letting go completely.Using my opening I swam upward, kicking out with all my might against the creature's face, causing it to wail in pain and propel me forward until the top part of my body exploded through the water's su

"Why are you here?" Maria demanded as her red eyes flashed. "You don't belong in this part of the castle!"Trying to control my raging heartbeat, I took a breath. "Wilson was giving me a lesson in his study." I tried to explain. "I was just heading back to the servants quarters.""Lesson?" Maria repeated as if it were a dirty word. "You seduced my brother, and now you're doing things behind his back with that old man?"Maria's words were like a slap in the face to me. Did she really just insinuate that I was going around seducing all the men in this castle? She had to be fucking kidding me."Watch your mouth." I growled as my anger began to ebb. "I haven't done anything of the sort, and I won't allow you to speak of me that way."As I spoke, a growl erupted from the man that I had initially run into as his hand shot out and wrapped around my throat. Gasping, I grabbed his wrist, trying to get him to let go."No one talks to the princess like that." He spat, now leaning down close to my

"PRINCE!" The healer's voice rang out around us. "You're going to kill her!"For a moment, nothing happens, but finally, seeming to realize exactly what he was doing, Elias' face softened ever so slightly as the crushing pressure I had felt seconds before disappeared.Sucking in deep breaths of air, I closed my eyes, waiting for the black spots to stop blocking my vision and the dizziness to subside."Thanks." I gasped as I continued to fill my body with the oxygen it had been deprived of.Shooting Elias a glare, the healer went back to his work, cleaning my back and sewing up the deeper whip marks. Once done, he stood back, wiping his forehead with a blood-covered hand."All done." He announced proudly taking me in. "Give her about two weeks to fully recover; during that time, avoid strenuous exercise and avoid dipping the wounds in direct water.""Sure." Elias murmured as his gaze continued to take in my tattered back."Do you want her to stay here for a few days?" The healer asked.
