All Chapters of A Kingdom of Corruption and Chaos: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

It took a little while before I settled down enough to actually talk to him, but rather than having him ask, I just decided to start from the beginning. Taking a breath, I curled in against him a little further before I finally started talking. "I'm sure you caught on to a lot of this with my conversation in there, but my mother died when I was five. I don't remember much of her, but I remember that night. I remember our house burning, and that man just simply walking away. He left me there in the dirt and ashes as I watched the only home I had ever known burn to the ground. When he left, I thought he was just going to get help, but then no one came. The house burnt to the ground as I watched, waiting for him to come back, for anyone to come help, but it never happened. I don't remember him even saying a single word to me before he was just gone." I took a breath, pausing for a moment, but he just pulled me in a little tighter. Leaning down to press a kiss to my forehead, as he took a

I was actually excited as I followed him further down the hall. He had handed me two towels from a stand just inside another room that seemed to be a dressing room of sorts, probably for the hot springs. "I can't blame you for being uncomfortable after everything, but the water is steamy and bubbly enough from the scents and soap they put in it that you can't see anything under the surface, so if you take one towel in with you and unwrap yourself under the surface, you'll be just fine, princess." That made me smile once more. I was really enjoying the fact that he was actually looking out for me, caring for me in the simple, mundane ways that everyone else had overlooked. "Thank you," I whispered to him before leaning up on my tiptoes to press a short, sweet kiss to his lips, before he pulled away and headed further into the dressing room. Luckily, there wasn't anyone else in here at the moment, so I set Nova down onto one of the benches before turning my back to Xavier, and quickly

My mind started to spiral back to what had happened before with Jaxon, the second Xavier pinned me fully to the wall. I couldn't help it; my breathing hitched, but that was when he pressed soft, sweet kisses to my collarbone, and I took a full, deep breath. Xavier's scent filled my lungs, instantly calming my racing thoughts. That warm, smoky, spiced scent felt far more like a warm, comforting blanket as it wrapped around my whole being, instantly soothing my nerves, and allowing me to stay in the moment as I was instantly brought back to exactly where I was and who had me. I was safe here. I gasped as his hands traced back down my sides to grip my ass as he pulled me away from the wall, and walked us over to the bed before carefully laying me down across it. Pressing another kiss to my collarbone, he started slowly, methodically trailing a path lower. Almost torturously slow as he moved down to my chest. My breath caught in my throat as his hot tongue flicked over one nipple, and h

I slowly woke up to the feeling of Xavier's soft, sinful lips slowly pressing soft, sweet kisses to the side of my neck. I sighed as I tipped my chin up to give him more access. God, I could really get used to this. "Good morning, princess," he murmured against the side of my neck, and I smiled. "Good morning, handsome," he chuckled against me as I grinned a little wider before pressing back further into his hold, only to remember that we were both still very naked, and his hard length was pressing insistently against my ass. He let out a low curse at the contact, making me smile as I purposely wiggled against him. "You're playing with fire, princess." He growled out, and I giggled as he nipped at me, wrapping his arms more securely around me as his hand brushed across my nipple. I sucked in a breath, rubbing my thighs together to attempt to quell just a bit of the heat building between them. While I was a little achy, in all the right places from last nigh

After a little while, I was able to turn the conversation back towards them, actually helping me work on the remaining homework assignments. They were both happy to help me until I couldn't physically take it anymore, but luckily, by then, it was time to head to dinner anyway. After we ate, I started to get up to leave, but they both followed me out of the dining room and down the hall towards the gym. "What are you doing?" I asked, looking over my shoulder at them."Going to train, of course. We all have matches tomorrow, so Genie and I figured that getting a bit of extra training in wouldn't be a bad thing." Lexi just grinned at me as I raised an eyebrow at her. Yeah, because that's why they were following me to the gym, they were going to actually train, and not just watch Xavier and me. It is an open gym, though, so it's not like I could deny them.  "Fine, just behave, please. I haven't actually been able to train with him for like two weeks
