Chapter 187

Sabrina’s POV

“Done?” I asked.

He took a handful of my hair and toyed with it. “Yes.” Was his absentminded reply. I gasped, shocked and completely baffled that he just agreed like that.

“Your majesty.”

“Yes?” He looked up at me, and then stroked my chin. His touch made me shiver, but I didn’t pull back.

“Are you sure? You want me to run the harem?”

“Yes. I am sure”

“But why did you agree to easily? I mean, it’s not a trifle thing to be in charge of the harem. I know how much you care about the girls and you wouldn’t just let anyone do it. So why.”

“I know you’ll do a good job.” He said, gently cupping the side of my face. I resisted the urge to lean into his touch. “You’re kind, and you care about people genuinely. Those girls, they would choose you without a second thought. I’ve seen how you’ve helped them, and how you’ve stood up to Blair multiple times. Even when the odds weren’t in your favour.”

“You know all this?”

“What? You think I wouldn’t know about what goes on in every inch of this place? I have people watching and reporting to me. And they all tell me how much the girls love you.”

My cheeks warmed and I smiled to myself. I honestly had no idea I was being watched at all. “That’s….pretty cool.”

“It is,” He said, mirroring my smile. “And of course Blair always talked my ears off about much she hated you. And how you were threatening her place”

“This is a very pleasant turn of events for me.” I said, trying not to think about what kind of situation he would have to be in with Blair for her to tap his ears off.

I don’t care. She’s in the past now.

But this is good. Being in charge of the harem would mean I’d wake up each day with a sense of purpose. I’ll have something to do. Running the harem is no easy task. Making sure that everyone is cared for and seen and all of that. Plus keeping records of marriages, financial records, making sure no one vanishes overnight. I can already imagine how much work would go into this.

And I feel excited.

“I’m still punishing those women for hurting you.” The king said, drawing me from my thoughts.

“You can punish them, of course. I wasn’t against that. The ddi say a lot of mean things about me. What I was against was you killing them.”

He groaned. “Fine.”

“And Blair. What will you do to her?” I asked softly.

It wasn’t lost on me what Blair was to him. Even if I chose not to ever think about her, she was a part of his life.

“For Blair, I have something planned.” He replied. There was no fondness in his eyes or voice, which made me giddy with
