Gerda managed to survive her fall in the chapel after attempting to kill off the moor folk under the queens orders. Instead of becoming a prisoner in Ulstead, the king sends her to Borra where she becomes his slave.
Borra wants nothing more than t...

The male suddenly shouted when his body was abruptly tossed across the cave, making a reverberating impact with a nearby wall. Vines slithered out like snakes around his sides till they were practically strangling his body against the rocky wall. He released another scream that echoed throughout the cave when several thorns penetrated his skin. Gerda swallowed a lump in her throat; trembling as she stood up while cautiously looking around. She stilled when she caught sight of an enraged Borra with vivid, glowing yellow eyes and a vicious sneer on his face. She was somewhat relieved when she realized for the first time Borra's anger was not directed at her. Instead, it was aimed at the dark fey creature who was now focused on Borra with pleading eyes.
"Perhaps I should remove your hands since you clearly lack control of them. " Borra maliciously said with a growl.
"I just wanted to have a taste of what the human has to offer. Forgive me...i-it won't happen again." The horned fey carefully answered.
Borra then slowly approached him until he was several feet away. The entire cave was quiet as onlookers observed the scene unfolding before them. Gerda silently admired the effect Borra had on his people. Usually, only the king represented such an epitome of authority when it came to his subjects.
"So you took it upon yourself to forcefully have your way with her even after she slaughtered your people?" Borra calmly asked with an eerie tone.
"I swear that I only intended to threaten the human but her sweet scent lured me in and I–" The cowardly creature attempted to explain but Borra bluntly interjected.
"You are not permitted to lay a single hand upon her. She belongs to me and I do not like to share what is mine." Borra sharply commanded as if Gerda represented nothing more but property.
He then turned around to face the rest of the fey with his smoldering eyes intensely staring at them with an intimidating presence. She had yet to see him this vicious, which only made her wonder how many layers of anger he was capable of posessing.
"I'm warning each and every one of you...if I find that any sort of harm is afflicted upon this human, you will be punished. I will not allow you to contaminate yourselves by attempting to breedwith her either. Let's not forget that this filthy human committed unspeakable crimes against our people." Borra shouted both threatening and lecturing his people.
Gerda felt deeply offended by his description of her but also relieved knowing that she was not at risk of being ravished by the idiotic creatures. The fey then bowed their heads down in a submissive manner and without any protest began to slowly disperse. Borra motioned for his guards to take the male fairy with them, most likely to receive punishment. Once the cave was clear only Borra, Celtra, and Gerda were still occupying it. Borra then focused his attention on Celtra with anger in his eyes.
"Now where were you when the human was being touched by those fools?" Borra asked in a low rumbling voice.
"I-I was busy being entertained by Qin...I'm deeply sorry for not staying by her side." Celtra shakenly said in a tiny voice.
