The Alpha King’s Hated Slave Chapter 65

Ever so slowly, he opened his eyes. “What did you just say?”

A great feeling of excitement swarm through Baski at his response. “She’s doing so much better, My King! She ate and she bathe and she even let me put a healing balm on her! Oh, Your Majesty, I’m so happy today. I never thought this day will ever come!”

He has leaned up as she talked, interested. When she finished, his surprise was apparent. “That is a miracle, Baski. What happened?”

“It’s Danika, Your Majesty.”

He cocked his head to the side in thought. “Danika?”

Baski nodded her head, tears of excitement filling her eyes. “She visited with Sally today…” She proceeded to tell him everything. How Danika was able to get through to Remeta.

She purposefully left out the part about what Remeta is addressing Danika as because she knows it wouldn’t end well. She told him every other thing…including the part that Remeta insists on being with Danika and that’s why she’s in the palace.

Silence followed her narration because the king was trying to process everything. His face was his usual unreadable mask so she doesn’t know what’s going through that head of his.

“Remeta sees her as the Royalty she was and she feels so safe with her?” He asked at last, perplexed.

She nodded her head, “Oh my king, you needed to see her in the morning. She was willing to do anything because she’s feeling safe again. She said, she has a friend who’s Royalty….that she’s safe.” Her voice cracked in the end, emotions overwhelming her.

Her words was met with silence because the king is trying to assimilate everything she said.

Finally, he spoke again. “I would have loved to see her now. She’s fifteen and for the first time she’s willing to get better…” he paused, “…and it’s because of Danika?”

She nodded her head vigorously. “Yes, my king.”

Silence. Baski can practically see the wheels of disbelief turning in his head. He wouldn’t feel anything she hasn’t felt. The different is that she watched it happen. And it’s still happening.

He got up then. “I have to see this, Baski. Take me to Remeta.”

“But…!” She wanted to remind him of his leg but she clamped her mouth shut.

He wouldn’t appreciate her talking to him about it. The king hates being reminded of any smallest form of weakness people might think he has.

She bowed her head, “As you wish, my king.”

Danika woke to a girl’s face hovering in front of her face. She blinked twice to clear the haze in her eyes and opened her eyes again. It was Remeta’s face and she’s no linger smiling.

“Oh, heavens! Remeta woke her up! Remeta woke my queen up! Remeta was really careful and she kept quiet too but she woke her!” Remeta cried out, obviously panicked. “My Queen will throw Remeta to the guards now for being a bad person!”

Danika woke up and held her, “No, Remeta you didn’t wake me. Please, don’t panic. I woke because I wanted to wake.”

“Really?” She asked in a small voice, fear all over her face.

Danika hugged her then. “Of course. Remeta didn’t wake Danika.” She reassured her and watched the girl breath a sign of relief.

She looked around when she pulled back from Remeta.

“Yes, did I sleep for long?” She wondered what happened. The last time she could remember, she was in court. She’d pleasured the king with her hand and her mouth.

The reminder made her cheeks flush badly. Away from court, she couldn’t believe she’d done something like that. She’d undressed him a little and she’d been able to give him satisfaction.

He kissed your forehead. A voice inside her head reminded her, her hand rose and caressed that part of her head lingeringly.

“Where is Sally?” She asked, forcing hersweld to remove the thoughts from her mind for now.

In the silence of the night, at the privacy of her bed, she would think about it again.

“She went to the village. She told Remeta she’s going to the village.” Remeta replied.

“Okay. Have you seen the palace, should I take you around?”

A small smile touched Remeta’s face and she nodded that heavy blond mass of hers affirmatively. “Yes, My Queen. I’d love to go out… Remeta has been in doors for so long…” she paused and swallowed tightly, “…Remeta has been scared….”

Danika bend down a little and forced her head up to become eye level with her. “There’s nothing to be afraid of anymore, Remeta. Sally and I got you, now.”

Remeta glowed under her words. “Thank you so much, My Queen.”

Danika took the girl’s thin flair hand into hers and squeezed slightly. “Let’s go get some air while we wait for Sally.”

They headed out. Danika wondered how the three of them will be able to sleep in her small bed at night?

She didn’t let it worry her. Whatever happens, happens. She can’t turn Remeta out and Sally would gladly sleep on the floor just to make sure that Remeta is comfortable.

Out of the door, Danika was surprised to see the King entering into the long hallway that leads to the servant quarters. Baski was followed closely behind him.

Her lower belly fluttered at the charismatic sight of him. With a closer look, she noticed that he was walking with a slight limp.

It surprised her because it’s the first time she has ever seen him walk with a limp…she never knew he has one, and she would bet her life that it’s a gift from her father. Her heart squeezed in her chest.

“Master….” She bowed as she walked closer and stood in front of her.

But, his eyes weren’t on her. They were pinned on the girl that had ran to hide behind her back like it’s a refuge. Remeta only peeped at him from behind her.

As he gazed upon Remeta, all the coldness of his eyes disappeared to be replaced by warmth.

“Remeta…” He spoke her name ever so softly.

The girl started rambling to herself. “He’s come to take Remeta. It’s bed again. She said no bed for Remeta again. He’s come to take Remeta. They lied to Remeta… There’s bed for Remeta…! They found Remeta…!”

The more she spoke, the more her voice rose in sheer fear and panic until her voice became high-pitched, her body trembling massively.

Unadulterated pain flashed in his eyes. Baski’s eyes watered at the sight of one of her daughter’s crisis.
