Audrey's POV.I stood up when I heard the door open even though I was still quite shocked at everything king Kaden had said to me. My mind was still in a haze as I hadn’t quite suggested it all. It felt surreal; I hadn’t really expected him to say something like this at all. I looked down shyly when Adler walked in and stared at me with a smile and back at King Kaden.I smiled slightly and bowed my head in respect."Oh! Don't do that," He grinned and sat down on King Kaden's bed, "We're friends now right." He continued with that grin."You can't be friends with a slave." I muttered."I can if I want to." He shot back, I managed a smile bowing to both of them."Remember what I said Audrey." King Kaden's voice boomed from behind Adler."Yes King Kaden." I rushed out immediately, I didn't want him to notice the blush that was already forming on my cheeks.As soon as I walked out the door, I paused when I bumped into Shantel who stood in the hallway, waiting and glaring at me w

Audrey's POV.I blinked my eyes repeatedly after he had said that because I found it quite difficult to believe what he had just said. I felt like I was living a dream I would soon awake from and I felt bad to know that these could all just be fragments of my imaginations. "Where am I staying then?" I asked carefully, not wanting to come off as too eager or too willing."In the palace with me." He replied, making me gasp in shock.He ought to be kidding me!He slowly took in my expression and when he had seen what he was looking for, the frown on his face dissipated and was immediately replaced with a bright smile which almost blinded my vision.I was awestruck!"I hope you'll like it here." He added, but when I still didn’t say a word, he nudged me carefully, saying; “ say something!”"I would love to be here,” I said slowly, “…I'm only just a lil bit surprised that's all." A laugh escaped from his lips before he hugged me. I was also surprised that he had hugged me, but I sa

Kaden's POV.I couldn't believe Erik had the nerve to show his face here.The audacity of it all! I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't just as pissed off as he was, even though I knew he did not deserve my fury. My eyes narrowed as Erik walked up, his face had a smug smirk on it, as though he were in absolute control.When he came inside my room, I almost lost it and pounded his face with my fists, but I stopped myself from doing so simply because my Audrey was then and now he’s done something else, something worse.Funny enough, he didn't say anything. Instead he just stared back at me, waiting for me to say something, goading me, testing me.I clenched my teeth, trying to think of how to send him back.He was never to be trusted, he wanted my throne and I didn’t like that. I couldn’t shake out how many times he has tried to kill me in the past, how many times he had tried to overtake my throne, and how he has always failed.If he’s here for it this time again, then he would not succ

Audrey's POV.I didn't want to know who this man was, but I just knew that he was definitely someone dangerous and someone I needed to flee from.My heart thumped furiously against my chest, fear making my blood run cold as I stood with my hands trembling against the table in front of me, trying to make sure that he didn't notice how scared I was. It wasn't like I could let him know how weak I am, he could attack me easily."Who are you?" I asked after summoning the courage."You don't get to ask questions, you'll just follow me." He smirked.I took a sharp breath and closed my eyes for a second, I imagined throwing him across the room.To my biggest surprise he crashed on the cupboard wincing in pain, I gasped in shock wondering how I did that.I then realized that it had been me doing that all along. I used my power when I was in the king's room, but I didn't understand where this power came from."What are you? What do you want from me?" I demanded.He stood, looking at me angrily

-Audrey POV-It was hard work bringing myself together. The hairs on my body stood up, waiting for the outcome of whatever Kaden had gone to do.I instinctively wrapped my hands around my neck and winced when I felt like I was reliving the moment that hideous man had wrapped his hands around my neck.I shuddered. The room was stuffy; even though the windows were open, it still felt like I was being choked up.I was about to commence prancing about the room when I suddenly heard the door click open and king Kaden trudged in tiredly into the room. My heart immediately sank when I took notice of the grim expression on his face and I couldn’t help but think that there was something probably bugging him.“Hey.” I said softly, and as soon as he heard me speak, he looked up and flashed me a small smile.“Hi.”I wasn’t interested in spiking a conversation especially when it was quite obvious that there was someone after my life and so I decided to quickly rush out; "Were you able to find o
