Page 16 of The Dark Fae Princess
Anders sighs and looks to the door in anger.
“What do you want with her anyway?” I ask him instead as he turns back to me and grips my chin tightly, determined to glare me into another compulsion.
He blinks and then smiles. “If I tell you, will you take me to her?”
“Maybe,” I reply with a shrug.Definitely not.
“Well, some time ago, we were one step away from being united. She was supposed to be my Queen, but we failed to complete the union, no thanks to your asshole grandfather,” he growls. “We have unfinished business and I intend to finish what we started.”
“You want her as your Queen?” I ask to get this straight. “You are going to all this trouble just for that?”
He grimaces at me.
“Let me tell you something you might not know. My mother isn’t all that. She is a colossal pain in the ass. You would seriously regret taking her on. Just ask her current husbands. She would turn you into a little lap dog to do her bidding. Or maybe you like that?” I give him a questioning look.
I don’t mean any offense to my mother. I love her, but she has her flaws, as we all do.
He gives me a ferocious stare and tightens his grip on my chin. “You are playing with fire, little girl. You should do as you’re told, or you might find yourself in trouble.”
I give him a ferocious glare back and grit my teeth.
He steps back then, keeping his hold on me. His hard, green eyes take me in, head to toe and back up to my eyes. He holds up his other hand. White and gold sparks fly off his fingers and hit the fabric of my bodice, rendering it in two to expose my breasts to him. It’s refined and elegant magick. If I had tried that I would’ve burned a hole through whoever it was. “Pretty, in that way you Dark scum are. It wouldn’t take much to get my dick hard enough to screw you until you weep. I’ve heard the tales about your chastity, Savannah.” He pauses to shove his hand in between my legs and squeeze me roughly. “I would take great delight in ripping through your barrier and ruining you for your future husband. I’m losing patience with you, bitch, so I suggest you fall in line or find yourself chained up in my dungeon for me to play with you as I see fit!”
I gulp, taking in a deep breath at the same time and then choking violently at his threat.
I’m about to scream as loudly as I can when the door bursts open and I hear a roar of anger.
Relief floods me and I look up believing to see Jerrick, but instead, it’s someone I didn’t expect in a million years.

Savannah
Trey marches up to his new King and punches him in the face so hard, his nose bursts all over his face, his blood staining his white suit.
Anders lets go of his physical and magickal hold on me, his hands cupping his nose as he screams, “What the fuck? How dare you strike your King! You will pay for this, you insolent little shit!”
“How dare you lay hands on a woman without her permission, you sick fuck. I don’t give a rat’s ass who you are. You stay away from the Princess.”
“I will have your head for this!” Anders roars and I gasp. He truly means that.
“Oh, please,” Trey scoffs. “I have been here all of five minutes and I can see your rule is tenuous at best. It won’t take much effort to cause a coup. Keep your hands, and your threats, to yourself.”
Anders glares at him, but backs down, to my surprise. He must take Trey at his word that he will cause trouble and have the means and power to see it through.
“Stay out of my way,” he snarls and with as much dignity as he can, he leaves me and Trey alone.
I stare at Trey’s back as he just stands there in front of me.
“Are you decent?” he asks me after a few seconds.
“Uhm,” I gape down at myself, remembering that my tits are currently on show, and quickly grab the flaps and close them, fixing my dress with a quick blast of magick.
“Yes,” I stammer, my hands shaking. “Thank you.”
He turns back to me and I fling myself at him, wrapping my arms around him. “He has seriously lost his mind!”
“Hm,” Trey mutters and holds me gently before pushing me away with a guarded look. “He’s not a popular man. I see why now. Are you okay?”
