Semua Bab TAMING THE BEAST: HER LITTLE PET: Bab 91 - Bab 100

"You can do it, keep going” seemed to be the most used sentence for the past four days since Elaina began learning the ancient music call. Elaina would nod and continue despite the sadness in her heart that nothing was working right. She wanted to stay hopeful for Drake, he was trying his best to reassure her and she knew he was right for her to keep practicing till she got it right.Today was another day in the loop of trying to hit the right tone. She had barely scraped by the first music line but she was now stuck at the very beginning of the second line. It was way harder than the previous one and it was beginning to get on her nerves. “Maybe you should try playing it much slower, then slowly work it up to speed” Drake chipped in with a suggestion for the millionth time. Elaina nodded and tried to go even slower but there wasn't any difference. She sighed out long and hard and lamented, “Why is it so hard? It feels like all my years of learning to play the harp was for naught,

“Oh heavens! Drake, I feel so embarrassed, the king walked in on us” Elaina exclaimed in shame.Drake grunted and replied indifferently, “He should have stayed away then…” He had a bad feeling about Alfred unwelcomed interruption but he knew he couldn't stop Elaina from going. He was still the king after all and she was obliged to obey him.He should be the one bowing to her instead, she was a Dragon king's bride.Drake calmed himself with the thought that it was only a matter of time before he would be out of here and take Elaina with him. She wouldn't have to tolerate such disrespect anymore. Elaina shook her head at how nonchalant he was about the whole thing, while she was feeling like the ground should split open and swallow her whole. She wished she was as fearless as him but now she was too embarrassed to go speak with Alfred. Such bad timing! What could be so important that he had to seek her audience now?She checked herself one more time to make sure she was properly dresse

Elaina had thought she would be better by morning but it was a terrible lie. She was so worried that she couldn't sleep and still had migraines from overworking herself. She looked like a ghost with bags under her eyes, her worry not declining in the slightest. In fact, she was more anxious about musical practice that day.Despite that, she tried to clean up as much as she could before heading to the dungeon to see Drake. She just had to practice her notes, no matter what. Drake was happy to see her as usual. He had been waiting for her to show up because he was curious to know what king Alfred wanted that he had to interrupt them. But when Elaina entered his cell, he noticed something was off. She looked tired and the eye bags indicated that she hadn't slept. Her eyes were sad and distant, he could also feel from the mate bond that she was distressed. “Morning Elaina” he greeted and opened his arms to welcome her like he usually did. “Morning Drake” she replied absentmindedly as

Elaina threw her stubbornness away at that moment, she turned and stepped forward as instructed, then she fell to her knees. “Please, king Alfred, do not do something you will regret. I beg of you” she begged profusely as tears gathered in her eyes. With Drake's life on the line, she knew this was way worse than the time she was whipped. Alfred was dead serious in getting what he wanted and the only way she could escape was if he changed his mind… otherwise she was doomed.To think he let her walk away that day and have an entire day of moment of peace with Drake before pulling this card. She had woken up sad but Drake managed to cheer her up, her accomplishment made her happy and she had felt relief that she didn't see Alfred that day. Then this came and took her off guard, it was the calm before the storm.The king watched her beg and he felt pleased, he had finally gotten her to her knees and all it took was the mentioned of Drake's name. He was both pleased and infuriated. Pleas

Elaina winced from the ache at the back of her hand and her eyes slowly fluttered open.‘Where am I?’ she wondered as her vision adjusted to her surroundings and she looked around.The first thing she saw was her naked body and she shrieked, mortified. She tried to move so she could cover up and that was when she noticed that her hands and legs had been tied to the bed frame in the unfamiliar room.On cue, the memories of how she ended up in that state began to flood into her mind. She remembered the king calling her to his room and his ultimatum to either let him have his way with her or he would order for Drake to be killed. Her shock was quickly replaced with horror, she suddenly felt sick in her stomach at the thought of the king taking off her clothes and tying her down. What a perverted monster!She shook helplessly with hopes that she could break out of her bondage but it was futile, the chains were so tight it was burning into her skin the more she struggled.Was this really
