Chapter 88 What just happened ? Ackeira wondered , her body and soul wracked with pain .
Everywhere hurts .
She had come dangerously close to passing out .
Her chamber door opened once again, and her heart impulsively reached out in desperation , wishing for Lord Vladyas Keira A familiar voice reacheiber cars .
A breath of relief left her .
Em ? she croaked .
Hey , its okay .
Im here for you .
Emeriel climbed into bed beside her and hugged her tightly .
He wont hurt you anymore .
I saw him leave , Her younger sister murmured soothingly , gently patting her hair Emeriels body trembled , and Aekeira could hear the strain in her voice .
Its okay , Ive got you .
Im sorry I cant protect you from this .
I wish I could .
How could Aekeira express to her sister that , despite the pain he had caused , she secretly longed for Lord Vladya to return ? How could she explain that , even in the midst of her hurt , she still yearned to feel his touch , to have him inside her again ? Something was seriously wrong with her .
Aekeira buried her face in Emeriels throat and let her tears flow freely .
AMIE The day bled into dusk , casting long shadows that stretched from the looming towers of Ravenshadow fortress like grasping fingers .
Amie walked with Emeriel along one of the many winding paths leading away from the sprawling fortress .
Where did you say we were headed again ? Emeriel asked .
Dust rose from the path with each step , swirling around their ankles like a smoky haze .
To the barn , my lady .
Madam Livia said you should assist me in milking the cows , Amie replied .
A flicker of doubt crossed Emeriels brow , but he followed Amie anyway .
Did you service Lord Vladya , last night ? Amie asked as they walked .
I overheard two maids from Blackstone conversing by the well .
Apparently , Lord Vladya dismissed a Urekai maid to go mount a human royal .
Is that what theyre saying ? Amie nodded .
He has quite the reputation with the Urekai females in this fortress .
They would give anything to capture his attention , no matter how little he was willing to grant them .
She glanced at Emeriel .
So , was it you ? No , it was Aekeira .
Relief washed over Amic .
Emeriel was looking at her strangely .
Is something troubling you ? No , nothing .

Amies conscience was already killing her , knowing she would soon deliver Prince Emeriel to Master Boris .
But the added guilt of doing so shortly after Lord Vladya had mounted her was simply too much for Amie to bear .
It was at small comfort that it was not she who had been involved 1/3 17:01 Sat , Dec 28 GO Chapter 88 We have arrived .
Amie announced softly , gesturing towards a weathered building ahead .
56 % The barn house , its roof thatched with golden straw , stood a shon distance away .
The air hung heavy with the scent of hay and livestock , mingling with the rhythmic stirrings of the animals .
Shafts of golden sunlight seeped through the gaps in the aged wood , creating patterns upon the earthen floor below .
Amie led Emeriel towards the doors , their hinges groaning in protest as they creaked open .
As they stepped inside , a large hand , shot out from the shadows , clamping around Emeriels arm .
Emeriel yelped as he was hoisted off the ground .
Master Boris loomed over him , a cruel sneer twisting his features .
Finally , he snarled , his voice dripping with malice .
Youve done well , Amie .
Bringing him to me like a prized boar to the slaughter .
Amic flinched at the comparison , her eyes widening in terror .
Tears welled up , blurring her vision as she stumbled back a step Emeriel stared at her in disbelief .
Wh what is the meaning of this , Amie ? he stammered , his voice barely a whisper .
Amie has delivered you into my hands , that is what it means .
Master Boris shoved Emeriel back onto his feet , keeping a tight grip on his arm .
The mans gaze burned into Emeriel , a mix of raw lust and barely contained anger blazing within .
You stopped working at the inn .
Amie is merely fulfilling her end of our agreement .
Amie whimpered , the weight of her betrayal crushing down on her .
Shamed in her throat , choking any attempt at id confusion .
explanation She stole another glance at Emeriel , his expression mixture Tm s sorry , she stammered , her voice barely audible .
Shame spurred her bac step further , putting more distance between herself and Emeriel .
Please , Amie , dont leave me here .
Please , Im begging you ! Emeriel tried to lunged towards Amie , but Master Boris dug his fingers into his skin .
Master Boris shot Amie a withering glance , Get out .
Amie flinched , tears finally spilling down her cheeks .
Forgive me , she mumbled with a choked sob , before whirling around and fleeing the barn house .
MADAM LIVIA Lord Vladya stood like a statue of iron before the imposing metal gates of the forbidden chambers .
His arms were crossed impatiently , and his gaze pierced through the open oak door at the beast residing within .
My Lord , Livias voice broke the silence .
You sent for me ? Vladya turned his head slightly .
Bring Emeriel here .
The beast needs him tonight , he stated curtly .
Madarn Livia hurried away to carry out his command immediately .
Lord Vladya was in the darkest mood Livia had ever witnessed , and she had no desire to be the target of his displeasure .
However , she scoured every corner in search of Emeriel ; from the southern wings to the western wings , down to the well area and the clotheslines everywhere .
Yet , Livia could not find him .
By the time Livia returned to the fourth wing , her lungs burned from exertion .
Her frantic search had left her breathless , her heart hammering a frantic rhythm against her ribs .
She stood before Grand Lord Vladya , her composure shaken .
He is nowhere to be found , Your Highness , she rasped , the words tumbling out in a rush , I searched the entire fortress , but there is no sign of Emeriel 2/3 17:01 Sat , Dec 28 GD .
