Imogen opened her eyes, and discovered she was still in lord Simons room, did she sleep off?"

She recalled what happened yesterday clearly, the pain and how she fainted due to how weak she was, but she was surprised that he didn throw her out.

Next to her was the dread lord still sleeping, Imogen stared at him with nothing but hatred. She rise from the bed and winced, feeling pain within her, she is feeling sore down there.

She get dressed up and left the room quietly, making sure she didn wake her master. She went to her room with a blank expression. She encountered Aria and Poppy near her room, tears slowly flowing down her face when she saw them.

Judging by her tears, Aria and Poppy could tell she had a bad night with him.

Aria moves closer to her and pulled her into a hug, "it is alright, cry all you want" She said patting her back making Imogen to shed more tears.

Poppy stared at her with pity, but something more important than shedding tears is Imogens health and especially making sure she doesn get pregnant, nothing is more important than that.

"How are you feeling?" Poppy asked out of concern. Imogen and Aria pulled away from the hug with sad faces.

How could she tell them how she feels? She doesn even want to think about last night? She feels so worthless and hates herself.

"Did something happen?" Aria queried her eyebrows raised.

"No, I just feel weak. I think I need to take.... a" She couldn finish her statement and almost fainted, she was so exhausted mentally.

"Imogen!" Aria yelled frightened. Poppy grabbed her before she could fall on the floor.

"Go get a physician immediately" Poppy instructed and Aria ran out of the slave quarters.

"Madam Poppy, I feel ... so.... weak" Imogen muttered.

"It is ok, just hold on. You will be fine" She ensured her as she rest her in her arms.

The Masters Quarter

Carter entered the master room, to make some reports only to find him just rising from the bed. His eyes widened in surprise, it was so late in the morning but his lord was just waking up which has never happened before.

He had never slept so deep or woke up so late before, he was always cautious and alert but he slept so deep today, that was so shocking.

"Good morning, my lord" Carter greeted but lord Simon didn respond, he appeared to have something on his mind.

"When did the slave with me last night leave?" He interrogated Carter.

"She left this morning, I am here because of her" Carter said while Simon turned to him.

"What happened to her?"

"She passed out this morning, a physician is attending to her but I thought it was right to report to you" Carter said but lord Simon did not show the slightest response to his words which made Carter feared he had crossed the line.

"Forgive me, my lord, I just felt it was right to report to you. I apologize for my ignorance"

"It is ok, you did the right thing reporting" Lord Simon replied to Carters surprise.

What?..." He uttered mistakenly, to which he received dangerous glares from Simon.

"I apologize, my lord, I was just surprised" He pleaded.

"Don be, I want you to report every single thing about her to me without leaving any details and also get the best physician in the castle to attend to her rather than some inexperienced physician. Tell them that nothing should happen to her, or they die" Simon ordered while Carter looked at him with his mouth wide opened.

Did his lord just say that, did he just give that order for just one slave? What is going on? The master he knew hardly cared for his slaves, not even his favourite. Apart from them pleasuring him, he doesn care what happens to them afterwards but why is he so different to this slave.

What happened last night?

"I understand, master" Carter responded.

"If that is all, you can go now tell them to prepare my bath" He ordered, and the head guard bowed and left the room.

Simon looked at his bed with a smirk. Don you dare think you can get sick without my order, it isn over yet"

DAYS LATER

"You are awake" Aria said as she joined Imogen on the bed with a bowl of herbal tonic . How are you doing?" Aria set down the bowl and assisted Imogen to sit on the bed.

"Take this" She said and gave Imogen the tonic. Madam Poppy said it will help you recover" Aria explained as Imogen drank the medicine.

"It is so bitter" Imogen complained about the medicine with a disgusting face and gave the bowl back to Aria.

"But it will help your quick recovery, wait a moment I will bring in your meal" Aria said excitedly.

"Aria?" Imogen held her hand. "You don have to keep doing all this, am all better now. I feel like I am bothering you"

"How could you say that? I was so frightened when you fainted that day how could you expect me not to be bothered. Just take your time recovering without a care about anything, let me handle the rest" Aria retorted while Imogen nodded in defeat.

"But you look so happy today, did something good happen?" Imogen inquired.

"Yes, something good happened. Master went to the palace, and he is going to come back late. That means we have some hours to be at peace and not panic that we might offend him" Aria answered filled with so much joy.

Imogen scowled at the mention of the master, memories of that night still vivid and she couldn stop hating him for it.

The palace?....

Royal Palace Of Avis (The Princes Chamber)

Laughter filled the room of Prince George, many voice were heard in the Princes chambers, Simon stood in front of the Princes room, waiting for the Princes escort to inform the prince of his arrival.

"Your highness, Lord Simon is here" the escort announced.

"Is he? let him in" Prince George ordered and his guard bowed and went outside. Few minutes later, the door slide opened revealing the dread lord with his head guard carter behind him. Simon entered the room, leaving carter behind.

The lords with the prince began to mumble as soon as the dread lord entered.

"Greetings, your highness" Lord Simon greeted the prince and lowered his head in a respect to the prince.

"Thank you lord Simon, it seems like you have caused some discomfort to the lords here" Prince George said in a joking manner.

"My apologies, I suggest I come back later if my presence here is disturbing"

It is alright, your highness, my lord we were just about to leave anyway. So don mind us" Maverick said as he stood up with the other lords definitely uncomfortable with Simon in the room with them, such was their fear of him.

"we will come visit you again your highness" Maverick bowed.

"I will be expecting you, uncle" Prince George said while maverick smiled, glanced at Simon and took his leave with the other lords.

"You sure know how to plant fear in other people with your presence. You really need to loosen up a bit, Simon" Prince George said but Simon said nothing.

"What did you call me here for?" He asked with a cold expression.

"Why? I can call a friend of mine here. Except for the official assembly I hardly see you, am I at fault for wanting to see my friend" The Prince said but lord Simon wasn buying it.

"I doubt you called me here because you missed me, why I am here? Did you have another problem with your father? Did he send someone to harm you again?" Simon asked with a worried look, but the prince only smiled.

Prince George, the first son of king Dustin and Queen Morgan, and also the next in line to the throne. At the young age of 13, his grandfather the previous king involved him in politics, preparing him for the throne and he cast his father aside, causing rift between prince George and his father. His father hated him because the previous king never acknowledge him (king Dustin) as someone who is fit to be king instead he favours his thirteen year old son over him.

Even though Dustin is now the king, everyone knows who the power belongs to. And that is prince George, he has the entire kingdom in his palm and his father is just a pawn seated on the throne.

His closeness with lord Simon was surprising, although he and Simon have been close friends since their childhood along with their now enemy Lucien, their temperament and ways couldn be more different.

They were all tight friends until Lucien betrayed them, he was there for Simon when his parents died, which made him earn Simons trust and submission, the only one he was submissive, loyal and took orders from.

Even though they were close friends, they had nothing in common. Prince George is the heartwarming leader, he only goes berserk when needed, he is smart and intelligent, and he is loved by many, by the people, noble, peasant, men and women. He is handsome and tall with broad shoulder, he has a captivating smile that always melt ones heart, he has deep brown eyes that match his hair colour and short beard, he has many beautiful features that makes ladies go crazy for him, but sadly the handsome prince isn interested in marriage yet.

"As expected you are the only one that cares for me, but don worry, my old man doesn plan on killing me for a while" Prince George answered with his beautiful smile.

"Then why I am here?"

Prince George sighed "You are so impatient, walk with me" He ordered and stood from his seat.

*********

"The sky looks so beautiful today" Prince George compliments.

"I never pictured you as a lover of nature" Simon said while the prince chuckled.

"Am a man of many mysteries, so don get on my bad side lord Simon" He joked while Simon lips curved into a thin smile.

"You just smiled right?" He taunted Simon but only ended up putting him back to the cold emotionless face.

"Now, that Ive successfully made you smile how about I make you angry" Prince George said with a serious face and stopped walking.

"What is wrong?"

"I am sorry, I know what that bastard did to you but still I have no choice. If am going to be king, I need him, no I need his influence with the neighboring kingdoms, so I have to do this even if it will hurt you" He uttered, Simon looked at him confused. He had no idea what he meant, but judging from his looks he knew it was something serious.

"What is it? Is it something bad? It is ok, whatever it is I can handle it so don worry"

"Lucien is back.."
