The Forced Maiden For The Cursed Alpha King by Josephine Ivy

Chapter 24

Sabrina’s POV:

The King’s order loomed over my head like a perpetual cloud of darkness that was near impossible to shake off.

Four days.

Going back to my duties in four days after all that had happened in that cell after just four days of rest sounded like a sure death sentence. But of course, what did I expect? That he would relieve me of my duties? Ha! It will be a freezing day in hell before such a thing happens.

But surprisingly, I didn’t think about it that much.

“Do you hurt anywhere?” Caldan asked. He watched me from a distance as I struggled to get

et out of bed and go to the bathroom. He has offered to help, but shame wouldn’t let me.

I want to pee. There’s no way I want him to help me to the bathroom.

“I’m fine.” I said honestly. My body wasn’t aching as much as it did yesterday. It still hurts, but the pain was reduced by half.

I hobbled all the way to the bathroom and did my business. I felt embarrassed that Caldan was in the room, and he probably heard me peeing. But getting him to leave was next to impossible.

“What if you slip and hit your head?” He had said when I had protested.

True. What if I did slip and hit my head? Who would help me then? Still it was embarrassing.

The rest of the day went by uneventful. According to Caldan, we were in his private wing of the pack house. I was really grateful for that, it meant I wouldn’t have to bump into Blair or any of her minions for the duration of my healing. At least I’d be drama free.

Caldan took it upon himself to take care of me.

A kind faced servant delivered three meals to me, and I didn’t need to ask to know that they were made by the Royal chef. Everything tasted divine, even the water was strangely refreshing. I had loose flowing dresses provided for me, and when I complained to Caldan that it was too much, he told me I needed all the care I could get.

And care did I get.

For the next three days, I felt like a real princess.

I got to bathe with the finest body washes that smelled like they had been made in the high temples of the mood goddess. I ate like a king, and dessert was that amazing chocolate cake that got better as the days went by.

By the morning of the second day, the bandages on my wrists unraveled on their own to reveal smooth skin. It nothing had ever happened, my skin was as smooth as ever. Hard to believe they were broken a week ago, black and blue from the internal bleeding. By the morning of the third day, I was completely healed. My back was free of any marks, all the scars had vanished. I stared at my bare back in the mirror, and my jaw dropped in shock.

Caldan noticed the bandages were all off, and I didn’t miss how confused he looked.

“You’re healed. He said, his eyes wide with shock as he looked at my wrists. “How is this possible?”

“I don’t know,” I shrugged.

Does this normally happen to you?” He asked. He walked closero me and took my hands in his. Very gently, he turned my hands left and right, inspecting my wrists.
