Shit. Karandy felt like kicking himself.

He knew he should have never slapped her where it was so damn visible yesterday, but he'd wanted her so much, he was unable to control himself.

While he was lying so effectively, he'd told the king baldly that he never laid a hand on her. He forgot about the goddamn slap. Fear gripped him.

Slowly, King Lucien walked closer to Danika. He got so close to her that only a few inch seperated them. Then, he bent down to become eye level with her.

Memories rose inside her of last night where he did the same thing. And then, the memories of what happened afterwards....

Her cheeks flushed as he still stared at her, his eyes scrutinizing her. So close, Danika breathed him in.

King Lucien has a unique scent to him that she is beginning to feel familiarized with. The same scent that surrounded her last night...that clung to her body even after she left his bed.

She cut off the gasp that rose to her throat when he raised his hand and run it across her cheek.

"The mark isn't all faded though. I can still see traces of it." He groaned as he ran his fingers up and down her cheek.

A shiver worked down her body, and she would have sworn that she saw his eyes flare with desire for a minute. He blinked and it was gone.

"Karandy?" King Lucien didn't take his eyes off her when he spoke so calmly.

"Yes, M-My King." His voice wasn't so confident anymore.

"Did you hit her last noon day?"

Silence. No answer.

King Lucien pulled back then, stepping back too. Danika suddenly felt bereft. She blinked several times to clear the strange feeling.

"Guards?" He didn't raise his voice. He never has to.

"Yes, Your Majesty!?" Both of them answered at the same time.

"Take him to the dungeon. Send for Doseh, the Master Of Justice. This slave trainer here will be given twenty strokes of the whip for assaulting the King's Slave, twenty more strokes for trespassing on the King's property and ten strokes for lying to the king."

What!? Fear, horror and panic became one inside Karandy.

The shock of the sentence was like a thunder strike to him. He laid on the ground and started pleading his course to the king.

He never expected that much punishment especially since the slave in question is Cone's daughter. King Cone's daughter, dammit. He never expected his king to punish him this much for touching the whore!

He pleaded and pleaded, but the guards came and took him away. King Lucien told Danika to rise before he turned and started walking back to his chambers.

Danika was so shocked, she was speechless. She never expected that big punishment for her case.

As she rose, happiness coursed through her.
