⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️
This chapter is a little different than the previous ones. It includes:
-Violence
-Blood
-A very brief mention of sexual abuse
-Kylo being not very nice

You woke up to the mattress shifting besides you. Your eyelids were still heavy and your body felt like you had gotten run over by a freaking bantha. Forcing your eyes into a squint as you took in the light in the room, you saw Kylo gathering his clothes from the floor and heading toward the door leading to his room.

"What time is it?"
Your groggy voice seemed to take Kylo by surprise. He turned around to face you with his brow furrowed.
"Almost 5."
You ran your hand over your face trying to wake up further. You never woke up this early by choice. "So early. How are you even awake? I'm exhausted."
Kylo stood up straighter and cleared his throat answering your question in a strictly professional tone.
"I have business to attend to and I'm sure it would be in your best interest to get a head start on the day as well. You need to pick up Sion and Corr at 7:30 today. I want them to get to training early. Bring them directly to the gym."

With that, he quickly turned back around and exited the room. You wondered how he could go back to being all business so quickly after the night you shared. You had not only kissed but slept in the same bed. Both things were not part of your original agreement and that had to mean something, right?

After a few moments you heard the sounds of Kylo's boots heavily stomping on the floor, his bedroom door opening and then closing shut. You sighed and sat up too quickly. Your body ached all over especially your legs and knees. All that kneeling was sure to make walking more difficult today.

Waking up early probably was beneficial because at least you wouldn't have to rush to get ready and a warm bath sounded heavenly for soothing your sore muscles. You stood up, gathered your things and went straight to your bathroom for some much needed relaxation.

The bath helped ease the pain some but as you finished getting dressed, you winced each time you had to lift your legs to put your pants on. Normally the pain would be upsetting but it only made your mind swirl with emotions, most of which were pleasant. Even through the punishment, you felt like you were getting closer and closer to hopefully breaking down some of the Supreme Leader's walls. He had shown pride in you. Maybe even a slight moment of admiration even.

You checked your data pad for the time and saw it was 7:00. Remembering what Kylo had said that morning before leaving, you decided to get a head start on picking up the boys from their friend's home. You stopped by the kitchen really quick to grab a piece of fruit for a breakfast on the go before exiting the front door where Vicrul was waiting to escort you.

"Good morning, Vicrul."
"Good morning....Princess."
You tensed at the use of the pet name Kylo called you and Vicrul laughed watching how it affected you.
"Ha. Ha. Very funny."
At this point you realized the knights would always know more than you'd like but you knew you'd have to get used to it. Stupid Force.
"Sorry. I had to." Vicrul continued laughing as you two made your way down the halls toward the Tillo family's home quarters.

"You know, it's not really fair that you know such...intimate details about me when I literally know nothing about you other than that you work for the Supreme Leader."
Vicrul stopped laughing and looked down at you.
"There isn't much to know."
"I doubt that. You weren't just born and knighted, or whatever it is you guys do to get this position. You had to have had a life before this and this can't possibly be all your life is presently. Waiting on your master's every beck and call."
"Really then? I could ask you the same thing. What was your life like before coming here to 'wait on our master's every beck and call'?" He accentuated the last few words by making air quotes with his fingers.
