Semua Bab Hybrid King: A Royal Affair : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Karl’s PovI was officially losing my mind over a human.From wanting to rip the stable boy’s head off for laughing with her, to getting angry and not wanting to see her face, to threatening my guards that made her scream. Even my anger shouting through the link had Landon straightening.“Choking them on their own balls for following your orders? Don’t you think you’re being irrational?”I ignored his questions, trying to stop myself from going outside to check if she was alright. Then she barged in, a mess of emotions, and my rage grew even more. Rage at whoever was responsible. It even took me a while to sniff out the blood on her.As she quietly walked past me to enter the physician's room, I realized I wanted more than just her in my bed. I liked her fiery spirit, which seemed to pop out more often than before. No other person—human or supernatural—would dare tick me off like she did and still be alive the next minute. Well… except my mother and sister.“Sienna! Dia—” She rushed t

Cassia’s Pov Entering this garden felt surreal, and the sight of soldiers guarding it—who didn’t even spare me a glance—was exhilarating. The highlight had to be Larmy the turd, watching me as I walked in, but I couldn’t bring myself to feel proud of my connection with the king. Pride wasn’t really my thing. I was lucky to receive this favour and knew it could be taken away at any moment.The colours of the water flowing from the grand fountain were mesmerizing. I made a mental note to ask the king why they were different colors.When my legs began to ache from walking around too much, I decided to return to the king and encountered Cindy at the entrance of the garden. She stood at the threshold, anger etched on her face, glaring at me.“What’s the problem, Cindy? Why are you glaring at me?” I approached her.“The king sent me to inform you that your meal is here,” she spat out with disgust.“Then why didn’t you come get me?” I asked confused. Why had she just stood there until I ca

Cassia’s POV We were barely inside the cottage before he pulled me by the waist, turning me around and crashing his soft lips onto mine. I responded with equal fervor. My body had been humming with sensual vibrations since our horse ride, and I could barely realize that he was leading us into the room while his fingers found the zipper of my uniform dress and expertly stripped it off me, leaving me in my underwear. It was when he dropped me unceremoniously on the bed that I realized how serious this was going to be. Am I ready for that step? Sensing my hesitation, he assured me, ‘Relax, Issa. I’m not going there yet. I just want to make you feel good… you want that?” I couldn’t find my voice as his large body hovered over mine, supported by his elbows. I nodded. “You’re so beautiful,” he whispered looking into my eyes, before resuming the kiss. I moaned into his mouth as he gripped my jaw, sliding to my neck, before holding my mound and freeing it from my bralette confinement

Cassia’s POVI counted with my fingers: three, two, one—ignoring her head shake that discouraged me from my audacious plan. I pulled her with me, bumping into the weak door and immediately running like our behinds were on fire.I had checked this door earlier and seen that it led to a busy side of the market. People bumping into each other and the colorful noise was a perfect blend of chaos but not for long.“Cassia, what—” Diane tried to say something, but I pressed a finger to my mouth, signaling her to wait.He was probably right on our tail. Our voices and scents could make it easy for him to find us, so I whispered to her,“Do you remember the way to the cart?”This side of the market was completely different and confusing. She shook her head.Okay, think, Cassia.It wasn’t long, half walking and running through the crowd, before we spotted a little hill at the end of the market and took the turn. Thankfully, it led us to a small stream. I looked around quickly before speaking, “

Cassia’s POV “But I already told you! It was a plan to enter the palace!” I pleaded with the guards who dragged Diane and me to a plank to be tied and whipped for ‘slandering’ the king.“And out of all the ideas, you decided that was the best?” He continued ignoring my pleas as he tied us up.He ordered his second, “Bring the whip!”My blood ran cold, and my heart beat like it was going to leave my body and run.We were finally on the palace grounds, but in the dungeon, far from the living areas. There’s no way the king would even be causally strolling nearby to intercede.“We didn’t foresee this one,” Diane muttered defeatedly next to me.“I don’t want to be whipped by that monstrous thing.” I wiggled like crazy when I spotted the scary-looking whip. Only their sickening laughter filled the air, making my stomach churn.I clenched my fists, expecting the pain, but—“I don’t remember ordering for the runaways to be beaten now, did I?”The king! My relief lasted for a moment before I
