"Your Majesty?" Words echo in my head, and it's getting louder, "Your Majesty?" I blink, looking around. "Are you okay, Sire?" Lord Bane asks, and I inhale deeply. "Isa -" I pause, clear my throat. I realise the lords are still sitting, and Isabelle isn't anywhere here. I blink harder. All this while, it had just been my imagination. Gosh, she's killing me."Is something wrong?" He asks. "Yes, everything," my voice cracks. I should probably go see her. I got it immediately. Maybe a picnic? She's probably waiting for me to come to her. The moment I stand, they all stare at me. "If you excuse me, I'd leave first," I say and stop. "A feast," I say and shake my head, "A tournament? That's a right, a tournament," I say, unable to explain to them, and I quickly walk out of the room. The moment the door opens. Nale— another brave knight of mine - walks with me."Where's she?" I ask, and he looks confused. "Isabelle," "Your chambers, having tea," He replies."Thank you," I tell him and wal
It isn't evident having to be the person in between. Kyler was right; Lakes wasn't really happy, and Victoria had tried to sell me off once. I only assumed it was her mistake, and I believed she regretted it afterwards. Maybe that's what I wanted to think. You whore, I should have killed you when I had the chance," Victoria's words replayed. That was her first move when she saw me as Kyler's bride. "How dare you? How dare you! A low life like you, of course, you deserve death," she said, gripping my hair and pulling me further into the room. "You're sorry? Then die!" Kia tapped me, and I caught my consciousness. I exhaled deeply and looked at my reflection in the mirror. Of course, I remembered Kyler, but he never told me he was a king. He said he was the prince's servant, and then he was a prince. However, I believed him, and I explained everything and the reason I ran away. I thought I trusted him. I told him how Victoria planned to sell me off to some traders, and I ran because
ISABELLE'S POVFinally, I get to the crowd and make my way to the front, pushing through the crowd. And there he is, not even close to the crowd, yet they all look excited to see him. He is in a red shirt, black trousers, and boots. The first three buttons of his shirt are unbuttoned, and his hair is styled in a boyish look."Ooh, he's so handsome. Her Majesty is so lucky," the girl beside me says, and I lower my head and look at them both. They don't mind and whisper something among themselves. One of them laughs, and the other rolls her eyes."I heard she is a servant and is pathetic. She's lucky, honestly. Because King Kyler doesn't take concubines,""I hope he would, I would contest, just to lay on the same bed with him, all those clothes and shoes, those jewels, I'd kill to be with him," she grunts.It's becoming annoying. Is that all there is to him? I move backwards and make sure I stand with them. "I heard he doesn't like his wife," I say, and they look at me. "He isn't all t
KYLER'S POVTemptation: It's hard to ignore someone like Isabelle, especially when she's naked in front of me and whispers, "Touch me," alongside a please and my name. My darned name, It's killing me, and I have no control over my body. She does. She owns me, and I have intentions of arguing. MINUTES AGO; After my short meeting with Kesem and Perry and some other few of my knights, I had to have a bath and a rest. Kesem seems to hate himself after the incident today, unable to protect Isabelle from the crowd. He has never failed at a mission, but it's Isabelle, she's stubborn as fuck, and I don't blame him either. I would have a word with him tomorrow, but his guilty eyes have grimaced at me for a while now. I am going to ignore him.I am about to step into my room when he calls. "Your Majesty," "Kesem, tomorrow," I reply. He takes a step backwards and bows."Goodnight, Sire," I walk in, and the door closes. Noami is arranging a few things when I walk in, and the moment she sees m
The best night of my life was tonight. Although I have never been with any man, not even my boyfriend before Kyler, I have read stories and listened to the other maids back in Lakes.Finally, my orgasm flushed through me, and my eyes opened. Kyler knelt before me, his hands stroking his needy cock.He leaned closer and kissed me, but I raised my hands around his neck, helping him up. We both smiled against our lips, "Are you okay?" He asks, and I smile."Yes, now it's my turn," I say, turning him over and pushing him to the bed. He is sitting on his bed on his bare ass, his cock sprung into the air. I knelt before him, and my eyes glued on him. Kyler had a big dick. I didn't think I would accommodate him initially, and I am still not used to how it expands my mouth."Come here," he says softly, and I crawl towards him. My hands hold his, and he slowly helps me towards his dick. His precum is all over him, and he smiles, but it becomes a desperate moan when I stroke him. "Isabelle," h
It was a title— the royal guest - and it wasn't enough because a royal guest can be kicked out. Three days ago, Kyler had offered me a house on the island he was dedicating to Isabelle. He was doing it to bribe the people of Lakes, and whenever I walked the streets of Yodora, I could see how my people thought that the takeover by Kyler was good.It pained me, but I was assured that Isabelle was on my side. It was easy to manipulate her since she owed me a favour. I finally finished my tour around Yodora, and I could see Kyler trying so hard to prove his marriage to my servant.As I walked into the palace, I heard a sneaky giggle between two ladies, and I rolled my eyes passing by them, but something she said had me on a hook."They are so in love, I can feel we'd have a baby soooon," she said and laughed."An heir, a prince, it's been ages. I saw a baby running around," I paused and looked at the ladies, and they didn't even see me, not like I was expecting them to, but I knew exactl
I had a meeting with one of my governors, James. He had been in town since the announcement of the new island. I didn't intend to leave Lakes abandoned; I had plans, and I needed his help. He sat in my study room, and we reviewed the Lakes map. It wasn't very clear. There were so many tunnels in the castle, underground dungeons, and rooms that seemed scarier than Yodora's darkest dungeon. My attention shifted when I heard Perry walk in quietly, almost like he didn't want to make any noise, but he was since his boots had heels."Your Majesty," He breathed, trying to calm his breath. I closed the map and directed my attention to him."What is it?" I asked. He blinked and looked at James. "You can talk," I dropped the map on the table and sat down, staring and waiting for him."It's Her Highness..." I gulped and sat up. "Victoria came to see her," I wasn't sure he was done; I didn't want to hear the rest, but I warned them. I didn't want that monster close to Isabelle.I stormed out o
I promised Victoria I'd get her the grands, and I would. I wasn't expecting her to make a scene outside Kyler's chambers. I lay on the bed while I watched Kyler sneak out of the chambers, trying so hard not to bump into anything or make noise. The lights are turned off, and he has bumped into his boots, stripping him and hitting the table by the door.Finally, he succeeded noisily and left the chambers. I waited a few more minutes with my eyes open. He was gone, and I was sure. I turned on the lights, stepped out of the thick duvets, and picked out a robe from the couch beside the bed. I knew where he kept the keys, the keys to the safe. I didn't ask Victoria what she needed the money for. It wasn't my business; I didn't even want to know, but I knew she was up to no good.I opened the drawer while I forced myself into a brown dress and put my hair in a clean ponytail.I rushed towards the door and then remembered Kyler's men outside. I sneakily opened the door and realised just one
