Married to the arrogant king

Draco paused for a second before he continued to thrust in and out of her. Nadia kept crying and yelling for him to stop, but it seemed like the more she tried, the more powerful his thrust became. Finally, Nadia couldn’t take the pain anymore and passed out, but that did not stop Draco either… after what felt like hours, he released inside her…

Meanwhile, Gwen noticed that she was been followed, and she increased her pace. Since it was night, not many people could be seen around, making Gwen panic even more.

“Who could it be?” She thought, taking occasionally glances around when she bumped into someone. Before she could glance up to register who it was, she was knocked out, by the person.

…

An hour later, Gwen woke up to find herself tied to a chair in an unknown room. she wanted to scream and ask where she was, and who brought her there, but it was impossible because her mouth was covered with a cloth.

Gwen became scared, as she racked her brain for who could do such a thing to her. Uhhh! she gasped as if hit by a realization. “Could it be king Neil?” she clearly remembered, that he was one of the people she had a conflict with, aside from Zara, and she knew Zara was incapable of something like that, she was just too kind.

Minutes later someone walked in. “It’s him,” Gwen said inwardly, shivering slightly. King Neil walked into the room, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips.

“Lady Gwen, it’s nice to see you again,” he said in a mock tone.

Gwen clenched her fist, struggling to break free from the ropes, but her effort was futile.

King Neil chuckled, when he saw her attempt, then he said, “Don’t bother Lady Gwen, you won’t be able to break free. Now I will ask you a question, and you’ll have to answer me.”

Gwen groaned, trying to speak, but the cloth in her mouth was preventing her from doing so. King Neil saw that she wanted to say something and quickly removed the cloth.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Where am I? why did you abduct me?” She questioned immediately.

King Neil scoffed. “Lady Gwen, you don’t get to ask the questions, I do. and as for where you are, you are in an abandoned cottage, outside the palace, no one will find you here.”

Gwen trembled in fear, although she didn’t know much about king Neil, she knew there was more to him than meet the eyes.

“King Neil, let me go this instant. if Carl should find out about this, you’ll be a dead man,” she yelled.

King Neil landed a slap on her face out of anger. “What did I say about being the only one allowed to speak? now lady Gwen, I will ask you a question, and you must answer at once. Where is Nadia?”

Earlier King Neil had gone in search of Nadia, but couldn’t find her. so he assumed, Gwen must have done something since she said earlier that he should worry more about his daughter.

“How should I know that? I don’t follow your daughter wherever she goes, do I?”

King Neil landed another slap on her face, then he said, “Don’t act smart with me lady Gwen, tell me where Nadia is.”

Gwen scoffed, spitting out the blood in her mouth, before glancing up to meet his gaze. “I just told you, I know nothing of your daughter’s whereabouts.”

An evil glint flashed across king Neil’s features, then he said “Lady Gwen, I’ll leave you for now, because I have to return to the palace, but once I return tomorrow, I promise, I won’t go easy on you.” With that said, King Neil left the cottage, leaving two of his men behind to guard it.

…

Meanwhile, Nadia returned to the palace, with Draco, after making a deal, that he would spare her life and work for her, in exchange, she will give him status and also Zara…

ZARA’S POV

I woke up in the middle of the night, and could not find Carl in the chamber “where could he be?” I thought, putting on a robe.

Ever since our argument, he has been avoiding me. I guess he didn’t want me to ask about why he wanted to marry Nadia.

I walked out of the chamber, going in search of him. I knew he was either in his bureau or the other chamber.

Walking into the hallway, I caught sight of two people, sneaking into the palace. “Who are they?” I pondered, taking slow steps toward them, to get a better view.

“Nadia,” I called, when I saw, she was one. I glanced from her to the scary-looking man beside her. For some reason, I felt chills run down my spine as I glanced up to meet his dark gaze, which was full of lust, as he stared back at me, making me take a step backward, to keep a distance.

I knew the man in front of me was someone dangerous. someone, who I should avoid at all costs, due to the dark and dangerous aura that emitted from him.

Nadia on the other hand gaped at me with eyes surprised full of surprise and something akin to fear, but she quickly replaced them with an expressionless one. “Zara, why are you still awake by this time of the night?”

I scoffed, raising my brow in question. “I should be the one, asking that question,” I retorted.

Nadia rolled her eyes, then she said, “it shouldn’t be your concern.”

I nodded, giving her a fake smile, before walking past her. I suspect she has something off her sleeve, but I couldn’t wrap my head around what it could be.

When I walked past the scary man, I could feel his piercing gaze, burning a hole through my body. It suddenly dawned on me, that it was my first time, seeing him. “Who is he? I mulled, but I didn’t dare to ask Nadia. my instincts were telling me to leave their presence as soon as I can, and that was what I did. I quickened my pace, heading straight to the bureau, where I believed Carl was…

“Carl,” I called, once I stepped into the office. He was fast asleep, with his head on the table, and scrolls spewed all over.

I walked over to him, Crouching down to remove a strand of hair on his handsome face.

“You’d rather sleep like this, in discomfort, just to avoid my questions. if that is the case, I promise not to ask about your decision to marry Nadia, Instead, I’ll wait until you’re ready to tell me,” I whispered, dropping to a sitting position.

I gently placed my head on his thigh, before drifting off to sleep.

…

Meanwhile, after searching for Gwen all over the palace, Roxanne decided to just sit back and wait for her return. but now she was beginning to panic since it was almost dawn, and Gwen was yet to return.

“Did she go somewhere? did something happen to her? I guess I should just wait a while, if she doesn’t return, I’ll have to inform the king.

…

At that moment, king Neil also returned to the palace, going straight to Nadia’s room.

“Nadia?” He called when he saw her sitting on a stool, with a strange man(Draco) opposite her.

“Father,” Nadia dubbed, running into her father’s arms. Once she was in his embrace, she burst into tears. “Father, you’ll have to make Gwen pay, you have to make her pay for what she did to me.”

King Neil pulled away from the embrace, and stared at his daughter in both confusion, and worry. “What happened Nadia? tell me.”

Nadia sniffed, narrating everything that happened to her, to her father. King Neil, glanced up, to meet Draco’s gaze.

“You,” he yelled in anger, ambling towards Draco, with the intention of striking him, but Nadia pulled him back, nodding her head in disapproval.

Draco seemed unfazed, as he watched the father-daughter duo in amusement. The only reason he agreed to betray Gwen, was just so he could have Zara, if Gwen had promised him that part, maybe he wouldn’t have betrayed her.

Nadia pulled her father outside the chamber. “Father, I know you’re angry, I am too, but for now, you’ll have to remain calm, until after I exact my revenge on Gwen. I need that man to do exactly what he did to me to that witch, Gwen, and after that, I’ll get rid of the both of them.”
