"Master?" Ava called for the fifth or maybe sixth time. I heard her calling me, but answering her seemed like a daunting task. I suddenly felt weak, the thought of walking into that house and meeting her mother overwhelmed me. "I am opening the door now, Master," she said. Nodding my head, I watched her move towards the door and open it, patiently waiting for me to step in.She gestured for me to follow her, and I stepped inside before shutting the door. "Mother!" Ava mumbled, running upstairs. Utilizing the little time I had, I looked around the place. All I could say was that it was small— really small.There were only two couches, a small television, and three photos hanging on the wall. One was of a young Ava looking chubby and cute, holding an ice cream, her hair tied in two ponytails, and wearing a yellow dress.The other photo was of a little boy, presumably her brother. He resembled their father more. "Who wishes to meet me?" I heard her mother's voice and turned around to see

Ava walked beside Damon as they entered the palace, marveling at its immense size. "Where are we, Damon?" she asked, looking up at him. He remained silent, his face displaying anger. Was he upset about something?They walked quietly through the hallway until finally reaching a room. Damon opened the door and stepped inside. "Take off your clothes, Ava. I don't want you to catch a cold," he murmured, unbuttoning his shirt. But since Ava didn't move a muscle, he furrowed his brows at her. "Do you need the maids to help you out?""What?" Ava exclaimed."The servants here," he repeated, and she rolled her eyes. "I need you to give me some space, Damon. I'm not going to change right in front of you."He raised an eyebrow. "Why not?" he asked, stating the most obvious question."I don't like you enough to do that," Ava replied, causing his annoyance to grow. He undressed himself, and she averted her gaze. When he was done, she returned her gaze to his direction, noticing his black trousers a

Ava couldn't resist browsing through the books in front of her. The stories of love and magic were far more captivating than anything else in the room. If only such love and devotion existed in real life. Would that be a nice feeling? Lost in her thoughts, she is interrupted by a familiar voice."Milady?" Grant's voice cuts through her reverie, causing her to look up and meet his gaze. He sits down, resting his hands on the table, and studies her intently."How long have you been here?" she questions, still trying to gather her thoughts. His giggle breaks the tension, and he relaxes in his chair."It's been a while, milady," he replies with a warm smile. "I couldn't help but notice the expression on your face while you were reading. It was worth being here."Ava narrows her eyes, feeling a certain unease around Grant. There's something about him – his smile, his cunning demeanor – that puts her on edge. She doesn't trust him."Why are you here, Grant?" she asks, her tone cautious. "I d

"Damon?" Ava gently sat on his lap, feeling something poking her. She was confused by her behavior, shaking her head in an attempt to clear her thoughts. Leaning in closer, she called out, "Damon!" His eyes remained closed, but his hands moved to her waist."What the hell are you doing, Ava?" his voice was rough. "I'm trying to get some sleep here." He used his hands to shove her off his body, causing her to fall to the floor and experience a painful impact.Getting up, Ava climbed back onto the bed. "Damon, you promised to show me around, remember?" She couldn't help but feel like a little girl waking her daddy up. "Damon!""Fine!" he growled, sitting up. "Jesus Christ, can't I get a little sleep, Ava?" Looking at his disheveled hair, he used his hands to cover his face before standing and moving towards the bathroom. But before Ava could react, three maids walked into the room, dropping a tray of food and a dress.They bowed their heads and said, "Queen Elizabeth has requested your p

Sitting on the horse, Damon quickly joins me and we swiftly make our way out of the palace and into a bustling village. Carriages and horses fill the streets, but to my surprise, there are no cars in sight. Confused, I turn to Damon and ask, "Damon, why are there no cars here? I mean, this is the twenty-first century, right?"Damon leans closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "It is the twenty-first century, but King Fedor believes that these technologies are unnecessary in his kingdom. The people here prefer a simpler way of life, and they believe that simplicity is good." His lips gently brush against my earlobe as he adds, "Besides, all those modern inventions can lead to smog, accidents, and other unfortunate incidents."I shake my head, not entirely convinced. "I don't think that's a valid reasoning."Before I can say more, Damon interrupts, his tone urgent. "Hold that thought, Ava. Can you wait here for me? Don't move from this spot."I grab onto his hand, concern evident in m

Damon couldn't help but fret over Ava. It felt as if he had forgotten how to breathe the moment his eyes couldn't locate her. Where had she gone? Who was she with? She hardly knows anyone here; who could have taken her from me?" Mr. D," Zulu grabs my hand and pulls me towards the bed. "Calm down. She will be fine," she assures me.I've checked everywhere, except for Fedor and Elizabeth. This morning, Elizabeth did request Ava's presence, but I declined. Could that have made her angry? But would the Queen Mother be capable of harming someone over that?Before I can dwell on the thought any further, Zulu sits on my lap and leans in for a kiss. This is not unusual between us; she often does this to help clear my mind. However, at this moment, her kisses only leave me feeling disgusted.Breaking the kiss, I frown. "Not now, Zulu. My silly little girl is missing, and all you can think about is sex... get off me," I push her away, standing up and grabbing my jacket before walking out."You c

Ava watches as Damon stands to his feet, his expression turning fierce. "Who the hell do you think you are to touch what's mine?" he growls, his voice filled with possessiveness. At that moment, Alex steps forward, placing me protectively behind him, and chuckles."Don't think I don't know who you are," Alex retorts, his voice laced with anger. "You mean to say what you stole. She was mine, my bride-to-be before you showed up and took her away from me. You murdered her.""Murdered her??" Damon chuckles, his amusement evident. "I thought you had brains, but now I see how much of a fool you are. I never murdered her... if I did, she wouldn't ever show up in this world."Confused by their exchange, I take a step back, trying to make sense of the situation. Who are they arguing about? "Please, stop!" I interject, my voice cracking with emotion. "Don't hurt him. Damon means well."My words seem to pierce through the tension, and Damon reluctantly lets go of Alex's hand, stepping back. I rus

" Damon?" I mumble, hugging my knee to myself as I remain seated on the bed. I can't sleep, even if I try. Just one night of sleeping in his arms, and I don't want to sleep alone ever again."Go to bed, Ava!" he yells at me, which startles me. He's not happy, and I didn't mean to make him feel that way. I was just being honest."I can't," my voice trembles as he turns around to meet my gaze. "Can you please stay with me?"He furrows his brows. "I could ask you the same question, Ava. How can you be sure that I'm not also confused about my feelings? I mean, there's my sister, Zulu, and then there's you," he mocks. "I'm super confused, Ava." Tears stream down my face, and it doesn't take long for me to start crying like a baby. "Oh shit, what are you doing? Why are you crying?" Damon drops his cigarette and climbs onto the bed, using his hands to wipe away my tears. "I told you never to cry again, didn't I?""How am I supposed to do that when it happens on its own?!" I raise my voice at

Damon didn't take his gaze from the ceiling, he knew better as he remained glued to this bed, his hardness seemed to grow bigger with every touch of her skin on his, and her lips remained on his neck as she slept carefree while I die over her here. " ice cream" she mumbles slightly then giggles, how can she be sleeping soundly when I'm here suffering and slowly dying in pain, Zulu is right now waiting in the bed for me… I could just go to her and relieve myself without Ava ever knowing but the mere thought of having Zulu's hands on me made me frown in disdain.Surely something is wrong with me, for me to be feeling this way towards Ava confuses him, yes he likes her but why is that stopping him from liking others? Could it be the... No, I don't think so. The funniest truth is that Zulu had him promise to marry her when she was all grown up with big tits but that doesn't seem to happen anytime soon.That girl's front is as sleek as a wall. Although her cunt is tight as a consultation p

Damon shoved his hands in his pockets as he entered the Crimson Blade bar, renowned for serving the most incredible beers one could ever imagine. However, drinking wasn't exactly Damon's thing. He had come here for a specific reason."There's no way I'm coming to this kingdom and not meeting Lucas and Chase," Damon thought to himself as he approached the bar. Just then, he heard Lucas chuckle and say, "Is that Damon the fifth?""Shut up, Lucas," Damon replied with a smile. He took a seat at the bar and looked around, wondering where Chase was."The dude went out to buy more ingredients for our special beer. Nobody still knows the secret to that amazing brew, do they?" Lucas asked."Well, if they did, I wouldn't call it special," Damon responded, lowering his voice slightly. "But, cursed, you guys need to rebuild this place. Lucas, talk to Chase about it.""It's too late for you, Damon. He's right behind y..." Before Lucas could finish his sentence, Damon quickly ducked, narrowly avoidi
