61. Go to sleep both of you
Trust our dearest princess never to avoid showing a reaction. She turned around to cast a defiant look at the lady who also stood her ground and glared at her. Arawa was infuriated and would have said something but her stomach growled. That should have been embarrassing but Melissa, her lucky charm, had spoken just then. "Back off Ollie," she said to the lady who took a step closer to them glaring at them with intimidation. “Or what? " Ollie, so that was her name. At least, now when she thinks of the angry thing, she might as well as attach a name to it. She noted however that no one seemed to be talking to her, not even the old lady, Booma. There must be something boosting her morale so much as to the extent of having no atom of fear or respect. Regardless, she would not be intimidated nor give Ollie or whatsoever be her name, a chance to humiliate her. Not in this life. Respite her hunger, Arawa came to stand in front of Melissa thereby obstructing her view from the now shaking g

62.Special Duties
"Wake up Arawa, " someone was tapping her and speaking softly. It was Melissa and that was kind of odd as it was barely first light. Although, it was morning but it was just too early. Arawa herself still felt the need to get some sleep as she was rather exhausted. Well, eventually she forced open her heavy eyelids and cast Melissa a displeased glance which she was not sure she would notice. Melissa informed her that they had to go bath as by daylight, every slave would be going to the slave bath house. "That place is usually crowded by that time so I choose to go earlier, and besides we get to own a bit of peace and quiet. What say you princess?, " she asked and Arawa saw the twinkle in her eyes. "And the soldiers?, " Arawa askedMelissa laughed and tugged at her. Well, if there was one thing she was beginning to understand, it was the fact that Melissa would not harm her. The girl posed no threat at all, at least none that she could take notice of. Arawa got off the bed and snuc

63 You are from Wuwa
Things just went downright awkward. Arawa hoped that he would just leave. She wished she had not suddenly turned around but then, she felt a gush of anger within her . What on earth was she doing getting all girly and pink simply because he was looking at her. She obviously was making it seem like he could control what she felt and that was about to stop. She replaced the blushing look on her face with a serious frown and turned to look at Booma. The old lady was directing her on what they would be doing and how they would be going about it. Arawa could bet on the fact that her sudden change of mood might have shocked him to the bone marrow. Good for him. He did not deserve her weakness, he was nothing but a barbarian. She paid attention and began doing her assigned duties which basically was sweeping. It had not been easy getting used to the broom which was a long stick with what seemed like reeds attached to the base. Booma had nearly given up trying to teach her out of frustration

64. He escaped my lord
Sadly it had been days now since he had slipped into oblivion and Kili had been doing his best to bring him back. Orau had not left his side for longer than five minutes , she was worried and so were the villagers. She had not expected that her husband would be hurt that much and had become skeptical about waking up. Kili had reassured her that he would be fine eventually but she had her doubts. Kuka had not even opened his eyes, he was just a big mass of breathing flesh. Kili had administered the antidote and medicines to no avail. They had been waiting and praying to Ara to save him from Anula’'s grip. He was their king. Daily, warriors would go off in search of Bron who had managed to escape somehow. It had been during the moment of shock from Kuka’s fall that he had found an advantage. He bailed on the and the angry warriors had been looking everywhere for him. Orau was worried as she knew now that he stands to oppose them. No one would be safe anymore, no one would find rest unl

65. Forty lashes of the whip
This woman was strange, how could she know about Wuwa if she was not from there . Arawa now faced her directly waiting for an answer but she said nothing more. Instead she grabbed her broomstick and continued what she was doing. Arawa of course was not taking no for an answer and went to where she faced demanding an answer but she simply turned away. Arawa followed her and she moved away from her, walking briskly towards where they kept the broomsticks. Arawa had forgotten her duty and followed her. What was the point of bringing her curiosity over the edge and then leaving her in the dark? If there were her people here, then she had the right to know. "You there!! Haven't you got something to do or do I get you engaged?, " an angry soldier said to her brandishing his whip threateningly. Arawa looked up at him with distaste. He sure was looking for trouble with Brian if he did touch her. Somehow, she knew that Brian would never approve another punishing her but with the way she had

66. A hand for her pain
Melissa did not stop as she ran off to his chambers. If it was the captain punishing Arawa, then it could be only Adrian and Brian that could save her from his clutches. She had seen the look in Brian's eyes the Time he had intercepted them when they had gone to get water, that was not how a master looked at his slave. No, that had been the look of a concerned lover and she immediately understood that the warlord had sent her to the slave hall (shed) because she played an obvious role as his weakness. And one thing every warlord hated was his weakness being obvious. She rushed over to his room and had forgotten to knock in her worry. He was just getting out of the bath and stark naked when she happened to stumble in. Melissa gasped and immediately lowered her eyes, muttering an apology. She became afraid and worried that she would be punished simply because she had cared so much about her new friend. In fact, she totally had forgotten why she was there and now trembled. "What is the

67. More alive than dead
Brian and Adrian had been dancing around with their swords for sometime now. Truth be told, it had been quite a really long time since the brothers had this amount of fun. They were there fencing and giggling like little boys, neither willing to give up for the other. Soon, they were both panting tiredly and struggling hard to catch their breath. They both decided to take a break and sat down with their swords at hand. If there was anything they had learnt, it was their special ability to commit foul play when training. They knew each other inside out. They had not noticed the captain who had not left the scene and had been watching them all along. By age, he was older than them both and was more than happy to see them as happy as this. Since Adrian rescued him and he pledged himself to him fully, he had never seen him this excited. Not even when he was with the women. It made him glad to see him like this. Actually , he had not left since then as he felt like he owed the brothers, m

68. You have a brother?
Her back burned badly and felt like it had developed extra nostrils and was breathing. All her life, even through childhood, she had never undergone anything like this. This was simply sheer wickedness on humanity by a single person. But regardless , Arawa was glad that the whip master gotta lose that hand with which he had thought of whipping her with. She had been swearing in her mind that on a very good day, she would get her revenge by taking off that hand if he's. But looking at things right now, that would not be necessary as her heroes had come to the rescue. Heroes in her head now included Adrian. Whereas, she could have sworn that Brian wanted to chop off his head from whence he stood, she knew that she would never live down with the guilt of being the reason for a person's demise. As much as he had caused her pain, he had not deserved to die for just beating her which obviously was an order from his superior. On the other hand, Adrian seemed to have read her thoughts and ha

69. Vengeful Arawa
Ollie stood there glaring at Arawa, fuming with rage. To her, she saw no reason why master Brian would stand up for this savage woman. She had been here for longer and deserved to be treated above all. She had been trying to get his attention from the very first time she had seen him but to no avail. Only then, for this savage to come to win him over by simply being annoying. First, she had won him over and then, she bit her arm causing her a scar. Now, she had vowed to herself never to give peace to Arawa not minding the odds. It had given her such satisfaction seeing Arawa being whipped, only for Brian to show up. Someone had definitely called him to the scene and that someone had been whom she had been trying to find out when the annoying lady came back. She looked too beautiful in that dress of hers and that caused Ollie so much anger. What made her feel so proud was it because of this body. Ollie had been trying all she could and all she had learnt along the line to get curvy bu

70. One master here
Arawa hesitated and looked from the slave woman to Ollie whose hand she still held. This would have provided her a very good opportunity to deal with this wench which has caused her to get beaten on her first day. But then, she began to have her own reservations about this whole situation. Beating Ollie might not give her the satisfaction she was craving. In fact, it would deal a lot of minus to her reputation. To the others, it would seem that a little beating had gotten her deep. She had to make her mark by making it seem like nothing gets to her, not even a little whip from the whip master. She roughly pushed Ollie's hand away from her causing her to stagger away a little but she held steady as she had been anticipating that she would be pushed away roughly. Ollie shot her a very angry glance that said nothing short of curses but nothing further. Arawa nodded to the other woman and took the sheet away from her. The woman shot her a secret encouraging smile. It seemed so secret bec
