Kai’s POVAs much as I didn't want to admit it, I’d been thinking about Cora an awful lot since the last feast and her behavior at the palace bar the day before just made my thoughts even more focused on her and I fucking hated it.Before now, the only time she crossed my mind was when I was thinking up a punishment for her or how best to milk her body for riches, because all she was to me was a plaything, a mouthy whore that dared to defy me countless times and nothing more.After how she’d slapped me angrily after I fucked her at the feast, all I could think about was how displeased she was with me to have gotten physical. Normally, she’d stick to raining abusive words at me despite knowing how much that pissed me off especially in public, but she’d refused to care about the consequences of slapping me and went for it.The days that followed, it’d bothered me so much that I couldn't bring myself to go the dungeon to see her, my feelings were heavily conflicted and I was constantly t
Cora’s POV“Leave her to me, but wait outside in case she puts up a fight and needs to be restrained” The head matron told them and they nodded before they let go of me.As I stood at the door and stared at her, my chest heaved angrily as I wondered what bullshit she had in store for me this time around. She communicated with her eyes to the guards behind me as I was stalling getting into the room and the pushed in so I staggered and almost fell to the floor before they shut the door behind me.“In the bathroom, now” She ordered me and I looked her over with disgust before I walked in through the open door and she followed after me.As much as I desperately hated taking orders from anyone, what I hated the most was being restrained and treated like a animal and I knew that's what would happen if I disobeyed her and she had to call the guards in for assistance.I stepped into the bath tub without being told and she started to wash me clean with expensive bath oils and fragrances that I
Kai’s POVThe Alpha that had just had the pleasure of touching Cora was being given handshakes and claps on the back by the men in the audience as he made his way back to his seat and it was glaring that they were impressed at what he’d done and so was he from the huge grin that graced his features as he finally settled into his seat.I didn't know why I followed him with my eyes all the way to his seat but I didn't care enough to figure it out before I turned and made my way back into the glass cubicle to meet Cora.“How’d that feel? You look like you can barely stand” My eyes wandered to her legs that were visibly shaking even as she tried to stabilize herself by holding on to the walls of the cubicle.“Are you done? Can I fucking leave already?” She glared at me but based on the million other times that she had, I was pretty immune to it so it didn't bother me.“We're nowhere near started, or are we gentlemen?” The last part of my statement was raised to the crowd and the men whole
Kai’s POVMy hand remained tightly latched around her neck as I dragged her away from the hall, I could hear confused whispers among the men but none of the dared to speak up against me because they knew I’d have their heads on pikes in seconds for daring to question my decision.As soon as I walked out of the hall, I could hear Levi trying to diffuse the situation and dismiss them but I was more focused on how furious Cora had managed to make me once again, and in front of all those men like she’d done a couple of times.“You don’t know when to keep your fucking mouth shut, do you!?” I asked her angrily knowing that with how tightly I was grabbing unto her neck she couldn't respond.“You just do as you please and assume that you can take the consequences, don’t you?” I kicked the door of my room open and pushed her into it violently before I shut the door behind me.She’d landed on her ass painfully but she put on her usual tough act by refusing to make a single sound that would sugg
Kai’s POVI was thinking about Cora again.At this point, it’d become a fucking plague—No, another curse that I was doomed to bear when I was still actively struggling with another. I’d tried to shove it deep down within me, down in the darkest parts of my being that strangely held an appeal for her, one that I’d deny until my grave, one that I’d never let her be right about even it it kills me.Hell, it's killing me already.The wildest part was that the one thing that was in a loop in my head was how she’d handled me when she took control, how she’d given me the sort of a pleasure that a man couldn't forget no matter how hard he tried, how I’d been the helpless party in out dynamic for the first time because of how experts she’d handled my cock.I wanted to end that loop of thoughts and take back the control from her, I’d never been the submissive party and I’d rather roam like an animal and live on grass than let Cora assume that she could take the reigns like she had without being
Cora’s POVAh, I felt like a warrior with renewed motivation as I stretched awake the next morning.By the time I’d returned to the maids’ quarters with my excuse of a dress, smudged lipstick and ruffled ponytail everyone was fast asleep and yet I’d still woken up before them. I think it was what I’d just discovered the evening before rush energized me.Normally, I’d be running off to bath and violently scrub off all the impurities from being touched by Kai and those degenerate Alphas, but this time around I felt like Kai was the one on the losing end and I’d gotten relevant information from the feast to give me a steady advantage over him that’d help me exert my revenge once and for all.The fact that I’d realized that Kai’s possessiveness was both his strength and his weakness made my heart flutter with glee. That was the one edge I now had over Kai; knowing that I was more than a common whore to him and more like a woman whose sexual prowess he’d gotten attached to without even rea
Cora’s POVI knew that look on her face all too well.It stemmed from having your insides stretched pleasurably by Kai’s length, feeling him hit the right spots on your walls even though he was only doing it for his pleasure, hearing his growls boost your ego and he goes in and out of you.One thing I knew for sure was that those growls were usually more strained and louder whenever I was on the receiving end of those rough strokes, but who’s taking notes?“You, definitely you” My wolf whispered menacingly and I quickly tried to detach from my dark side that was propelling the odd thoughts in my mind.Unluckily, there was no off switch for my dark side as long as Kai was orchestrating something sexual that appealed to it, so now my eyes were glued to the movement of Kai’s fingers as he roughly pumped in and out of the other maid that’d arched her back to give him more access.She was holding onto the table tightly and her ass clapped with every push and pull of his fingers while her e
Cora’s POVAs the crate of fresh vegetables made contact with the store’s floors, I groaned in annoyance and pushed my palms against my back in a bid to sooth my sore muscles. The head mate on had marched most of the maids out of the quarters to pack fresh produce that were brought to restock the main storeroom.Outside the palace was filled with several carriages that’d brought in the food and we’d been offloading it for almost an hour already and I’d had enough of it already.“Should we just make a run for it now? I doubt the head matron would notice our absence with how many maids she has at her disposal” I whispered in Nina’s ears as she dropped a case of oil.“I’m not risking my lunch and dinner by disobeying her, you can go ahead” She told me tiredly and I rolled my eyes at her.“Chicken” I put both my hands in my armpit to form wings and waved them as I imitated the clucking sound chickens made to annoy Nina.“Cluck.all you want, I became immune to that bullshit when I clicked
