★UNMATCHED PLEASURE ......★

🪢 SLAVE TO THE ICE LORD ❄️

( melting his icy heart...)

Chapter 35❣️36

DEREK'S POV

What came over me? I went too far and now she's hiding behind Darren.

Darren looks absolutely livid. Why do you care? Just stay out of this, I growl

You were forcing yourself on her and still have the guts to talk back at me.

Listen and listen good, I am the only one who has a right to touch her. If you were not my cousin, I would have chopped your tongue off and incinerated your limbs, he growled angrily

I turn my gaze to Avia and she looks away from me. Tears are dropping down her cheeks. She sniffled, her nose bright red.

I feel awful. I step back slowly and transform into my wolf, running away as fast as I can. What have I done?

AVIA'S POV

Today has just been full of unexpected troubles. Maybe I should have stayed in King Barney's castle. Had I not tried to run away, I wouldn't have been in this cursed palace.

Derek isn't acting like himself, what got into him? I don't know why but I feel hurt. I considered him my only friend but he turned around and did this. Even Alvin betrayed me.

I have no one to rely on. Nobody in this palace cares about me. I feel more and more like a slave that's isolated.

None of the other maidens want to have anything to do with me. I'm like... No..I am an outcast.

Darren is pulling me inside and we are currently on his floor... He keeps confusing me, he's sympathy and affection are unreliable. I refuse to be taken for a ride

DARREN'S POV

My blood is boiling right now. How dare he lay a finger on her!!! He kissed her. He touched what belonged to me.

Suddenly Avia removes her hand from mine, causing us to halt.

I turn around and that's when I noticed that she was crying. Her cheeks are red and she has a slight bruise on her lower lip.

Thank you your majesty for saving me, she said with her head bowed and turned to leave.

I held her hand and pulled her to myself. I stare into her eyes, it holds a mixture of emotions and unanswered questions.

She looks like she's going through a lot in her mind. She pushes herself off me and steps back.

Stop confusing me, she says with a cracked voice. You keep changing moods with me and I don't know where I stand. One minute you are being humane to me and the next moment, you cause me pain.

I just can't take it anymore... I can't!

Why am I confusing you? I am not treating you anyway that I shouldn't. Have you forgotten that you belong to me? I ask

Please forgive me your majesty. I don't know why but every time I'm close to you, my heart beat doubles. It feels so strange and sometimes it's suffocating.

I don't want to feel like that but I can't help it. I know that I may be crossing my limits right now, but please pardon me just this once, she sniffles and bows before walking into her room and shutting the door behind her.

I feel the same way too and I don't understand. My curiosity is peaked. What is my connection with you Avia? * Sigh *

ALVIN'S POV

I sit down next to a bon fire. I fled into a small village just beyond the palace.

Young trolls and elves dance around the bon fire and women are serving food. There seems to be a festival taking place.

This place is a dream...a dream I've had ever since I could remember. Ever since Maleficent got hold of me, I've been living a horrible life.

I can still remember the day that she came. I was living with my grandma, although she says she found me floating in the river, I considered her family.

We lived in a small cottage in a remote village of humans. She always made sure I was fed and beared my tantrums.

I couldn't have been more happy. Until that fateful day. Maleficent invaded our village. She was rumored to have disappeared for years and tales of her tyranny were told.

I got to witness it. She slaughtered men and women both young and old. She was merciless, feeding on their organs.

Grandma grabbed my hand and we ran quickly into the forest to take shelter.

We ran as fast as we could but luck was not on our side. Maleficent appeared in front of us causing us to halt in our tracks.

She used her powers to pull me to herself. She held me by my clothes and sniffed me. Her eyes turned white and she had an evil grin on her wrinkled face.

Just what I needed! A lynx! I can finally revive myself. Hahaha! She cackled.

Grandma tried to free me from her but it didn't end well.

I watched as maleficent dug her long nails into Grandma's chest and pulled out her heart.

Her body fell lifeless on the ground.....

Ever since then, she takes a life from me to keep herself alive. She decided not to take my heart because I had already lost one apparently.

She takes my lives one at a time and anytime I don't deliver, I'm put through treacherous torture. I'm down to four lives already.

I feel bad for betraying Avia but I need to survive. Such a punishment is worst than any other form of death you may think of.

I truly hope she can forgive me.

Why are you crying? A little girl asks me and I notice that tears were pouring down my cheeks.

I wiped it quickly and walked away.

LAUREN'S POV

The last three days have been peaceful. No drama. Darren and Calix are trying to track down Maleficent. Anaya is back to looking for his attention and I haven't heard a word from Avia... Perfect

I was considering selling her off to a merchant. I don't need the money, I just want peace.

I don't have anything against Avia. She has a pure aura but her problems are too much. Everything around her causes confusion and secrets that peaks one's curiosity

There is a lot of unanswered questions regarding her and this seems to be related to this palace and Darren.

I just hope things stay peaceful or I might have to take matters into my own hands.

ANAYA'S POV

It seems like Avia is finally learning her place. I barely catch a glimpse of her and her head is always bowed every time we cross paths.

But I'm not at peace. I always see Darren staring at her even if it's for a split second. The gaze is filled with emotions.

I don't want to lose Darren at all. I have to get rid of her. Like they say, out of sight, out of mind* smile *

DEREK'S POV

These past few days have been horrible for me. Avia keeps running away and avoiding me

She always has this depressed look whenever I watch her from afar. I can't help but feel that it's partly my fault.

I shouldn't have let my emotions get the better of me. I have to fix our relationship. Even if it's just friendship, I don't want her to run away from me. It hurts.

I walk up to her and immediately she sees me, she turns around and tries to leave but I hold her hand.

AVIA'S POV

Derek held my hand, although it wasn't forcibly.

He makes me face him and he holds his ears.

" I'm sorry Avia, please just talk to me. I know what I did that day was unforgivable. Punish me anyway you see fit but please don't ignore me, please"

I could see the remorse in his eyes, I was still upset but I don't want to make an enemy for myself.

I know it's a lot to ask but please, can we go back to the way we were. I was being foolish and transferred my aggression on you, I am sorry, he says but I didn't answer.

Fine, I'll punish myself until you forgive me, he says and brings out his claws to strike himself but I stop him halfway.

Just stop it okay! I accept your apology but I don't know if we can go back to the way things were. I won't ignore you anymore but please, let's not cross our boundaries.

I won't, trust me, he says and he hugs me.

I feel lonely and depressed. Maybe it's because I haven't felt loved or cared for. Right now, I really need this. I really need a hug.

Something odd catches my attention. The walls in front of me starts freezing up. I look up and see Darren standing on the balcony. He walks back into his room almost immediately. Strange.

After finishing up with my work. I made my way to my room. As I was about to step into my room, I felt someone behind me.

I turn around and Darren is right behind me. I step back into the room but he keeps walking towards me. He shut the door behind him without turning his gaze away from me.

Your.. majesty... What are you doing here? I ask and he pulls me towards him.

He places his lips on my neck, placing soft butterfly kisses. I try to step away but his grip on my waist tightens.

He backs me up to the wall, his hands caging me in. He returns back to what he was doing to my neck, he slowly moves down to my collarbone kissing it softly.

Weird sense of pleasure takes over my mind. Why am I not pushing him away?

He loosens the straps in front of my dress and pulls the hand down a bit. He placed soft kisses on my shoulder and trailed the space between my breasts. I didn't realize when I moaned in pleasure.

It seems like my reaction to his touch made him happy. I must admit, I'm getting wet.

He nibbles on my earlobe, his hands squeezing my breasts. He pinch my nipples and I yelp in a soft breath filled voice " Ahhhh "

Your... majesty, I say in a cracked voice. He leans in and claims my lips faster than I could react. His hands are still playing with my breasts, sending chills down my spine.

I slowly respond to his kiss and he seemed to have increased his pace, his tongue invading my mouth. I try my best to match up to his intensity.

It tastes so good, his every touch fills me with unmatched pleasure. I run my fingers into his lush hair....

The heat is so intense.... I know this is wrong but I can't help myself. His left hand moves underneath my dress

Your majesty...
