when we’re alone make up for
them.
My body aches to be held
in his strong arms. My heart aches at the thought my marriage might
be over before it has even begun if the King has anything to do
with it.
The bed is soft as I sit
on it, still in the white robe, Kerr placed on me after he
administered the punishment for leaving the room without his
permission.
My bottom still hurts a
bit as the strap left a few thin whelps across it. My cheeks burn
with the anger building in me for the unjust punishment. I had no
idea leaving a room without permission was against the
rules.
Just as I get up, the door
glides open. I quickly drop my eyes and head as I see it’s the
King.
The tall though
slumped man with long, white hair and light brown eyes has graced me with his presence. Now, perhaps I can talk some
sense into the tyrant.
“ Sit,” he commands with a
harsh tone.
I do as he says and still
look down. I am not about to give this man any reason to see fit to
use the hook and strap which hang on the wall in this room as well
as all the bedrooms on the ship from what I’ve seen.
He stands over me. His
presence is threatening and I find it hard not to stand up to the
beast. I hold onto my temper, though.
“ Tell me what you know,”
he says.
He takes one of the chairs
at the small dining table. I notice him looking at the tray and he
lifts the lid. He makes a huffing sound as he sees I haven’t
touched the nasty stuff.
“ Not going to eat what we
give you, Princess?”
“ May I look at you,
Sire?”
“ You may.”
I raise my head and try
hard not to glare at the man. “I am having an issue taking the live
things into my mouth. My husband had told me he would help me until
I got used to eating the food on my own. How is your son,
sir?”
“ My son is fine. He’s come
to his senses.” His eyes lock on mine.
The fear in my eyes must
be what he’s looking for. I’m positive it’s there as I have no idea
what he means by Kerr coming to his senses.
Does it mean he’s annulling
our marriage?
“ May I ask exactly what
that means, Sire?”
“ No, you may not. I want
you to tell me what you know about the uprising on Euthenia.” He
crosses his arms over his chest and waits for an answer I do not
have.
“ I swear to you I know
nothing about it, sir.” My eyes do not waver. There is only honesty
behind my words and any person would know I’m hiding
nothing.
He rises and turns away
from me. “I will be back to check on you in approximately one hour.
Your food will need to be completely eaten by that time or it will
be the hook and the strap for you.”
“ Will Kerr be coming?” I
ask with hope.
Spinning on his heel, he
turns back and gives me an evil smile. “No. It will be me who
administers the punishment if you do not eat every bit of what’s on
that platter, girl. We do not waste things where you are going.
Remember that, please.”
The door glides back open,
and he leaves me.
And now it seems I must
shove those awful snails down my throat or be tied up,
naked, and beaten.
It’s hard to say which is
worse. My heart pounds as I find I want my husband more than I ever
have.
But does he still want
me?
What could the King have
meant by telling me Kerr has come to his senses? Could Kerr be
acting as if he thinks I’m capable of being involved in such a
thing as an uprising on his planet?
Did my father know of the
impending uprising and award me to Kerr to get the royals and their
guards away from the capital so this could happen?
My father always acted as
if he loved me. Is it possible he would do this to me on
purpose?
My head hurts as it spins
nearly out of control. The door glides open and I nearly fall off
the bed to get to him.
“ Kerr!” I run to him and
he catches me in his arms and picks me up.
His mouth covers mine and
I melt as his tongue touches mine, stroking it and taking me to a
much better place.
I can hear my heart
pounding as he
