Galene got to Master Damien's chamber and after the guards finished searching her at his doorpost, they finally allowed her in.She stepped into the room, her eyes pinned to the floor and not daring to look up, her fingers were vibrating and she felt so hot inside. She doesn't know the kind of punishment he would give her this time that he caught her red-handed saying bad things about him and wishing him death."That face, raise it" he commanded and she swallowed before gently raising her head up to peep at him then quickly brought it back down."Turn around" he uttered and her eyes widened. "Why was he telling her to turn around? Does he want to strangle her from the back?" She kept wondering but turned anyways."Strip and lay on the bed" she heard next and her heart flew out of her chest. He can't probably be telling her to strip when she hasn't heal from her injuries."Master but I am still hurt from last time" she yelled out, tears

"My Lord, the slave you requested for is here," Robin said to the master's hearing on getting inside the chambers. Master Damien who was facing the window and looking out to the dark sky waved his hands indicating his approval. Robin bowed and left the room. "You can now go in" he muttered scrutinizing Lydia who was busy arranging her robe and smiling cheekily. Robin shook his head and walked past her returning to his duty of supervising the women working at the farm. "What are you both doing standing there?" Robin screamed at the two women who obviously were catching their breath as they had been working since dawn and now, it was nightfall and they were still working. "We took a few seconds to catch our evaporating breathe," one of the women said getting a dangerous glare from Robin which shook her system as they both hastily picked up their tools and continued working in fright scared of their life. Robin was considered as the right

The next morning..."Master the council elders has arrived and are waiting at the council room," Robin said to master Damien who looked as though he just finished bathing and dressed in a long black cloak looking all fresh and clean."Ok, I will be with them shortly," he said and entered his inner room while Robin left the room to go inform the elders."Where is the Master Robin?" One of the elders asked looking at the door which Robin entered through to see if the master followed suit."The master would be with you shortly elders," Robin said, bowed, and left the room to stand outside the door.You knew the master would soon arrive so why are you asking the poor guard as if he holds the master" one of the elders said looking at the elder who asked the question disdainfully."I beseech you to keep quiet and mind your business Harold" the elder yelled fuming."Elder Archibald do not forget that" elder Harold corrected with a glare gett

After spending quality time with her mother and friend, Galene decided to return to the castle. It was already getting late, she bid her mother and friend goodbye and climbed into the carriage.Throughout her stay, her father never came back and she was happy about it, she doesn't want to see him thereby ruining her mood.The carriage speed on, she looked out of the window admiring the trees and grasses spending behind them. She was happy she was allowed to visit her mother and even happier to see her best friend.What Diana and her mother said crossed her mind and she sighed. She couldn't believe they would think the master she knew would ever find her worthy to be his wife.That his attitude towards her became a little kind does not mean he wants to take her as a wife. She doesn't even like him and becoming his wife is something nearly impossible.The carriage came to a stop and she looked out o

Lydia stared at Luciana when the door closed with Galene gone. "Where did you get that information you vomited out a while ago Luciana?" She asked in an annoying glance."What information were you talking about?" Luciana asked with a roll of eyes. "Do not ask me such dumb questions, you talked about the Master ready to take a wife and you were congratulating Galene as if the Master specifically told you she was the one he would take as a wife" Lydia hissed."Tell me, dear Lydia, why would she move into his Chambers if she wasn't the one and did you not heard all that she said about the master giving her mother gifts and sending her with his favorite carriage, tell me when you have ever heard of such thing in the history of this castle?" Mariam pitched in."Since you arrived here, how many times have you been allowed to go see your mother who is not even outside this castle? And you sit there telling him if the master specifically told me as if I nee
