I shivered, my body was stiff despite the warmth surrounding me. Something was calling for me and I followed it without question.My feet carried me across the grass, the water was still flowing nearby and my ears were alert to any sounds. As far as I could see there was nothing but trees. At least there was nothing threatening to attack me here, at least nothing that I could see. So what was this place? Was it safe?

Emily’s POVHow do I explain to you that there was nothing as therapeutic ass morning sex, with the one you suddenly felt attracted to, the one whose dick you're sucking with a fervor that you can't get out of your system and yet somehow manages to make you come once more. I woke up next to him as usual, with him spooning me, his head nestled between my shoulder blades, his arm across my stomach, his nose brushing against my neck, his breath tickling it. He smelled of sweat, musk, and something else. There was just something about this man, words weren't even enough to describe what he did to me, how he did it. Like a druggie I was addicted.That was the rule I broke, I was attached to him, I had failed, drown to him like an unexplainable force was joining us together. It was intoxicating. The warmth of his naked skin against mine and the strong masculine fragrance surrounding us was just enough to drive me crazy. I sighed contentedly and snuggled my face against his warm bare ches

Chapter seventy six
Chapter seventy-sixEmily’s POVI woke with a burning sensation running through my head, it felt as if someone had stuck me under a car and was dragging the metal around in my skull until all the blood rushed out, making me dizzy and nauseous at the same time, and then the pain started to set in. My vision blurred for a bit before everything became clear again and I sat up straight in bed, rubbing my head vigorously with both hands, hoping that would stop the throbbing from inside. My hair was sticking to my forehead uncomfortably, the dampness of sweat coating my face. It took a few minutes for my heart rate to return to normal and my stomach to settle. When I finally managed to relax, I took in my environment.I was in my room, I could not remember how I got there, and when I looked up, a lady in a white coat was staring right at me.“How are you doing, your Majesty” She had a kind smile on her lips, she did not appear angry or unkind, but it made my spine crawl nonetheless. She se
