The Forced Maiden For The Cursed Alpha King by Josephine Ivy

Chapter 34

SABRINA’S POV

There comes a time when it’s the right thing to do.

“To say “fuck it” And do whatever the fuck I want to do. Today is one of such days.

I woke up in my bed, magically transported there by someone I didn’t want to know. The last thing I remember was scrubbing and cleaning and then in in my bed.

1 rolled over in bed, my eyes focused on a scorch mark on my wall. I felt numb inside. Like my heart had turned to lead. Heavy. Oh so very heavy.

His majesty didn’t dismiss me. I’m very sure of it. In fact, I didn’t see a glimpse of him the entire day or should I say night. I worked till I dropped. Literally.

I think I knew him in my past life. And in that time, I had committed a grievous act against him, and that now led him to have so much hatred for me. Coupled with the crimes I committed in this lifetime which I didn’t do, but he didn’t care to listen

I doubt there’ll ever be a time when he will forgive me for them.

I rolled over on my stomach. I knew it was early morning. My body clock had been wired to serve his majesty as his slave.

I should get up. I should start getting ready to the work day.

But I can’t. I can’t bring myself to get up and care.

Everyday without fail, I woke up and went over, and did my duties, and endured the ridicule and simmering hatred from the king

Fuck it.

I’m not doing that again. I don’t care whatever the outcome may be. Im not going to slave away today. Just one day. Let me have one fucking day to myself.

I laid in bed till I felt mentally prepared enough to get up. I headed down to the bathrooms and took a long cold shower that did a bit to soothe the ache in my muscles. I was still very tired, dragging myself back to my room to get ready for the day. I had breakfast at the dining halls, and thankfully no one bothered me at all. I also didn’t see last Nifra. Perhaps she was at the king’s private wing already

Not that I cared.

“Rina?”

I turned around to see Caldan. Ah perfect, just who u was looking for. “Sir Caldan,” I said with a smile. He walked up to me, his eyes clear and sparkling.

“You’re still here?” He asked.

“Yes.” I looked around the gardens. “I have the day off. So I thought I’d spend it reconnecting with nature.”

I don’t have the day off. I’m intentionally not going to work.

“That’s perfect” He said. “Come with me, I have something to show you.”

“Something?” I asked with a small frown. “I hope it’s not lady Nifra’s gardens again.”

“Oh no,” he laughed softly, strands of hair falling into his eyes. “In the city, I want to take you to the city.”

My heart skipped.

I hadn’t been to the city. All my days have been within these walls.

“Is that a good idea?” I asked in a quiet tone.

“Yes. We could spend the whole day there, I’m sure it will be a nice change from being here all the time.”
