LAURAHaving had Rhett doke me like a demon lusting after the body of a woman, I slipped out of his bed, made to the wardrobe, and there, I saw Gova’s clothes lined out.I had betrayed her in a way, but her man was the one who got me in bed.I never intended to.I picked one of her silk gowns, and gently, wore it and left the room, so as to keep away from waking him and having him see me leave him forever.I had sworn never to have him come to me anymore, having given him what men liked the most in women.I was careful with the stairs, and the eyes that could be staring from the corners. I was not ready to have anyone gossip about me milling around the fort where princes lodge.Stepping into the walkway, I met no one, so I trailed my way to my chamber, only to meet Aden waiting outside.“Aden.” I called on him with a calm voice.He spurned to me and bowed his head.He was such a sweet loyal gamma, and he always made me wish I had always had him at my side as my gamma from the day my l

QWEN“That’s the normal visitors’ code. Always feigning to be okay when care is offered. I guess the queen has enough for everyone in the pack.”I was playing a weird mind game here, and it was shocking they were yet to get my point. I had rained a pile of mocking words at Cassey and she still had a smile on her face, still sounding polite because she was a daft daughter of low ranks.“It’s no code, Qwen, she just returned from the healer’s chamber a week ago, so, she is not ready to have herself settle for brandy. I mean, that’s too early.”Maybe Laura had grown a bit wise with her new office of the Luna.Maybe she had formed the rare habit of reading, and understanding ironies and idioms. Maybe she was working on brightening her senses.“Oh, dear. You were sick?”I knew that wasn’t the best way to talk to someone who just fiddled for her life in death’s soul basket, but I had to be as harsh as I could, because it gave me the feeling of triumph, though I never really had any sort of

QWENI missed so much about the palace.I missed the gardens, the old chamber where I used to stay with my friend who met her demise after her lover was stolen from her crisp by a ragtag slave, and the pretty walkways.The still retained the unfading beauty, their timeless glory, their spark, and every single memory they rekindled in my mind.I decided to check out the garden where Gova’s ashes were said to have been buried after she was cremated at her mother’s wish.I knew I had no problem with Gova, but I liked seeing the graves and burial pyres of those I took their life, and had she been in the least of those I had marked to kill, I could have dug out her ashes and threw it around the palace, to keep her soul restless.Her grave was a pretty one though. Just a little space for her ashes on which a plaque with inscriptions on it was made. I did not bother to read the writings on the plaque, because they could bear curses on whoever had his hands in her death.I raised my eyebrows

LAURAIt was the warmness of the sun’s light on my buttocks that woke me from my slumber.The windows were opened, and I was lying stack naked, the way Aden left me in bed last night, with my naked ass positioned to the window side.I sat up as quick as I can, hoping my precious ass had not been seen by any of the omegas passing by the windows of my chamber.I covered my body with my bedsheet, and spurned to the door.It was shut.Aden was careful enough to shut it before he left me weak and sleepy on the bed like a common slot whose pussy had been done some justice by a willing dick.My fingers touched my pink nipples, and I felt a sensation that made me desire a replay of last night’s show with Aden.Gosh!My silly nipples were still as sensitive as ever, wishing a lip would suckle at it and ease it of the pleasure that had been heaped on it at night at each hit of Aden’s thrust.I brushed them with my palm, and with the bedsheet wrapped around me, I made to the window and shot it a

QWEN“What do you think about a fifteen minutes pasta and grilled steak?” My thin driver was busy with the driving as usual, while I was busy with the talking at the passenger’s seat where I had nestled behind him.“Yummy with a touch of broccoli.” He said with his hands busy with the steering wheel.The thing man has a knack for good food, but though I had always made sure he fed well, he had never wished to relinquish his thing body for something good.“Broccoli? Don’t make me throw up, you.” I said and snapped a finger to indicate disgust.Well, pasta with broccoli like he said wasn’t a disgusting combo, but trust me, I must confess that I’m not in good terms with such combo.“But I don’t mind taking it that way if you cook it that way, ma’am.”I saw his smile, it was a weak wry smile, more like a silly giggle from a malnourished high school kid.“Did you just said you don’t mind doing what?” I posed with a wink.He scuffed as though he was choked by a stuff in his thin throat.I
