Tears of gratitude and relief slipped from Danika's eyes. She lowered her head again and closed her eyes. "Thank you for believing in me."
She closed her hand around the young woman's thigh in a reassuring squeeze. "We will get through this, Danika. Together. I will do everything I can to---"
"I don't think there is anything that can be done." She paused and swallowed, "I c-can't stop seeing the King's face in the store room. That coldness. He trusted me... He thinks I betrayed him...in so many ways."
More tears left her eyes as she continued hoarsely. "He has never used the collar on me, not in a long time. In fact, he stopped s-seeing the collar. He stopped seeing me as a Slave. His slave. And then, today...

His arms wrapped around her back, successfully caging her in his arms so she wouldn't escape, "Why have you been avoiding me?""I'm been too busy. I wasn't avoiding you.""If you're going to lie, at least look me in the eyes while doing that, will you?" He sounded amused."Alright. There was nothing to talk about. Mr. Odin makes sure any problem concerning the kids are solved."

Omgg, this heartache has me on edge! Can’t put this book down!
Damn!! Lucien is kindà anoying He didn't even let Danika explain herself. How on Earth will he take Karandy to be her lover?
Omg so many emotions at this point, I hope remetas comes through for us and is able to convince the king. Can’t wait for more updates.. finally the king dis vetta, she knew what she did was wrong so serves her right. I hope he continues to be cold with her
Please Baski convince the king with Remetas help. I need another update soon
I'm dying for the next update.
I need someone to convince the king, please!
i just hope danika is being understood by king. Can You please try to uPdate it soon completely ?!, we are too eager to read it especially the HAPPY ENDING...️. #EagerReader
Oh please update soon!
have you ever heard of unconstitutional love? have you ever actually looked at someone and see past all the shit they did and have done? it's just a book first of all.
Lucien loves Danika and he wishes for the child to be his. please let Remetta come back and talk to the king. Update soon please and thank you.
The author is romanticizing rape. She is justifying horrific abuse. In the real world, Danika’s “love” for Lucien would be considered not love but a trauma response, Stockholm syndrome. Yes he is haunted by his past, but so are most serial killers and rapists…..
And I thought Lucien have established that to himself. The author made us see his mind whenver he confronts the demons of his past but she did not give us enough glimpse of his thoughts on pivotal moments when Danika proved he is not like his father. Like when it was discovered that Danika was the
Exactly my thoughts. He is selfish and only thinks about his past and his pains. He hated that King Cone's raped so many and tries to abolish slavery but he raped Danika so many times as well. He did not hesitate electricuting Danika not even giving her the chance to explain herself. Ugh.
I keep reading hoping Danika finds a way out, but tbh, this story has taken such a sick, misogynistic path. She betrayed Lucien? When Lucien screws Vetta whenever and wherever he wants, when he is courting another princess to be his wife? To heck w Vetta. I hope LUCIEN gets what is coming to him.
