CHAPTER 8
I woke up on a bed, face down. Extreme pain travelled down my back as I tried to stand. A firm hand pushed me back gently. I was turned around gently until my back rested on the bed. I took in the unfamiliar room. Kyros loomed over me, a small bottle with red liquid in his hands and a gentle smile on his face. I smiled back at him.
He lifted my head gently and poured the substance down my throat. It tasted bitter. As soon as I swallowed, an intense burning started from my stomach upwards to my throat. I clutched my stomach as pain erupted. I screamed loudly. Hands gripped me firmly as I doubled over and threw up. Thick blood poured out of my mouth. The hands holding me left me and I felt the prick of a needle. The pain diminished gradually until I lost sense of my surroundings.
I woke up with a pounding head and a dry throat. Two men were talking.

"Come in" Thane called out. Kyros stepped in. Jairus cleaned his mouth, giving me a smile and nodded at Kyros as he left."My king" he bowed his head in greeting."What do you want?""I came to seek your permission on behalf of Esme." he looked between us."Whatever for?""She wants to volunteer at the infirmary""No" my heart sank."My king...."Thane interrupted him "If that is all you may leave now." Kyros looked like he wanted to say more but he turned and left.I was fuming in anger. I angrily packed the dishes and stormed out of the room. My anger reduced before I entered the study again."Would you be needing anything your highness?" I prayed he heard the venom dripping from my voice. He looked at me for a bit and pointed to the couch."Go lay down."he looked back at his desk.

It's been a month since I began working at the infirmary and I've managed not to get caught. Lily has been transferred full time to the infirmary so I get to see her a lot. Kyros on the other hand has been extremely sweet and nice to me. But he didn't make me feel the way Thane did. He didn't make my heart flutter or beat wildly. I didn't feel sparks whenever we touched.He took be to a clearing today with a small stream. We sat with our feet in the water throwing stones."Have you ever thought of having a mate?" I nodded."A couple of times. But I wouldn't be able to feel the bond until I'm bitten." I laughed bitterly. "I'm not sure my mate would even want me.""Don't say that. You are a wonderful person." I smiled at him.

I trailed my hands down his chest and he groaned. My hands held the covers and he gripped them tightly. Sparks erupted in my body at the touch. He groaned lowly and flipped us over. He kissed my mark lightly and I moaned. He sucked earnestly against my mark as I wrapped my legs around his waist and bucked against me. He ripped the shirt of me and sucked against my collarbone.He took an ample breast into his hands and kneaded it. He flicked my nipple with his hands as he sucked on the other. My insistent bucking increased until I came."Keep your hands above your head. Don't touch me and don't cum until I say so." A thrill passed through me. The urge to submit washed over me. I placed my two hands above my head.He toyed with my breasts pinching, tugging and sucking until I was a writhing mess. He

I snuggled deeper into my hard pillow. Wait. It wasn't a pillow. It was a chest. I opened my eyes to see Thane looking at me. A unreadable expression on his handsome face. I was laying atop him, a hard bulge pressing against my stomach. I blushed and quickly rolled over. I scratched my mark nervously.He removed my hands. "Stop that" I noticed I scratched the mark whenever I didn't know what to do about my emotions. The door opened and Jairus came in grinning widely. He sniffed around and paused."Fucking hell. Did you guys have sex?" He scrunched his face. I blushed and looked away while Thane growled."That's fucking disgusting. You are like my parents.""Nobody asked you to come in here without knocking." Thane answered him.

Who was Catalina? I looked at him in confusion as I answered."Who is Catalina?" he didn't answer as he dragged me out of the room. Servants in the hallway looked at us as he dragged me past them. Jairus was in the hallway as we passed."What is going on?" he ignored him and kept on pulling me. Thane opened the door and pushed me inside. I tripped and landed on the floor. I looked at the room. It was the room Jairus had asked me to sleep in. But who was Catalina? The owner of the faint lavender scent?"It was me who asked her to stay here." Jairus spoke up."How dare you disrespect Catalina like that? You had no fucking right to bring a common slave in here" that hurt. Common slave?"She is your mate" Jairus said calmly."And so is Catalina" oh.. this was his dead mate's room. I had no idea."Who has been dead for over four hundred years" the sickening sou

Few eyes turned to us in interest. I shuffled nervously on my feet. I tried to tug my arm but he held on firmly."You're hurting me" I said lowly knowing he heard me. He released his grip and pulled me into him, his arms around my waist. His breath mingled with mine. A low growl sounded behind us. He turned me so my back was against his chest. I looked up to see a furious Thane with his arm candy. I quickly looked at my feet."Brother" his deep voice sent shivers down my spine. It had been so long since I heard it. Wait a minute. Brother?"It's been a while. Two or three centuries?""Four centuries""Ah.. that's right four centuries." The tension between these two could be cut with a kni

Shouts erupted at the table. A few slammed their hands on the table in disbelief. I heard things like: a halfbreed for queen? Others called me a common slave. Thane raised his palm and the table quietened."That is unacceptable" a man with white hair shouted. All eyes were on me. Some with happiness, some with hate and some expressionless. Thane wiped his mouth gently with a napkin."Is that a challenge?""Not at all my king.""Then seat Anstice." The elderly man begrudgingly sat. The meal continued in silence after that. I felt a few people glare at me but I didn't look up. I focused on my plate ignoring them and yet unable to stomach anything."Eat" I looked at him and back at the plate immediately. I managed spoonfuls and quietly excused myself from the table.As I lay in bed trying to fall asleep, Thane lifted me and took me to his room. He lay in

Two days had gone by since the challenge was issued. I hadn't left my room in those two days and nobody had come to check up on me. There was a dull ache in my abdomen today and I felt a bit feverish. The door lock clicked and the door was pushed open. Jairus entered with a smile on his face."You haven't come out for two days""What's the point?" he sat on my bed."The duel is in two weeks""Why is it far away?""So you have time to prepare""There's no point. One week, three months, the result will still be the same. Gardenia will best me. I'm not about to prepare just to die."
