“I think it is a good thing that you’re heading away to Lodra very soon in any case. Some distance from your human will keep you on your toes and your mind sharp. I expect nothing but success if your skills on the battlefield match the capabilities of your mind.”
“Oh, well, I was thinking about bringing the human with me. It’d be too much of a waste of time to teach another how to please me.”
“No,” he says instantly. “I will not let any human leave this property. Besides, my men do not need a woman to distract them once the mission is underway. I’m sure you understand.”
Shit… Maya won’t be happy to hear she has to stay behind.
“Of course, sir.”
“And as far as your girl goes, perhaps I will have her sent back to the holding cells, or better yet, I’ll get rid of her for good. Not many naga take interest in a used woman when there are always more.”
Somehow, I hold my composure as he reveals his thoughts.
“I’m sure there will be no need to do such a thing.”
“I am sure, too, but I cannot blame you for getting a little carried away with your human. You need to understand that I need you to keep your head straight for the war. That’s what this is all about.”
“Let me reassure you that you have nothing to worry about. I will be away in Lodra for a few months, so I’m inevitably going to forget about the girl. Why waste dulling a weapon on the killing of a human, anyway? We need as many prime swords and axes as we can get for this conflict, so as Captain of the Royal Guard, I would not recommend taking the trouble.”
If anyone else was this resistant to the King, they’d be lucky to come out with only a broken limb or two. Given that it’s me though, Kriseri takes my words into serious consideration.
“I didn’t think of it like that.”
“Precisely. Besides, ignore this nonsense about a used woman. Keep the girl around and save her for the lower-ranking men. After all, they get second priority, do they not?”
“Indeed,” Kriseri says with a smile. “This meeting is adjourned then. Begone.”
I leave him be, but my troubles are only beginning.
On one hand, I am glad that Maya is safe for the moment. Luckily for us, King Kriseri doesn’t believe in the concept of love, so he seems to have taken my words well.
On the other hand, Maya isn’t going to be able to come with me to Lodra. Despite the uncertainty looming over our future with each other, I know that no matter what, I cannot let any harm come her way.

MAYA
He steps toward me, and I can really appreciate him. Physically, he's a specimen. He's so tall and strong. Lately, he's… changed. He's been trying.
He wants me to please me. I'm not dreading the intimacy that I know is coming. In fact, I'm looking forward to it.
I want the orgasms I know he is going to give me. The endless mind-blowing orgasms. I shiver at the thought.
Selliss unlaces the back of my dress and watches as it pools around my feet.
"You're beautiful," he murmurs in my ear.
His voice, deep and gruff, makes me moisten. Those compliments make me feel something...
"Lay down," he orders. "Spread your legs."
I know what to do. I spread my legs for him and soon, his tongue is on me and he's tasting me, consuming my juices.
He moves his tongue faster, and I feel my back arching. I dig my fingers into the sheets and it's almost painful. Impossibly painful and yet so satisfying.
Biting my lip, I move my hips along with his tongue.
He's gentle one second, rough the next. His teeth nip at my clit and I jump, but he holds me steady as he ravishes me.
