The Kings Hold

TKH-Chapter Three

Just a quick reminder that this story is mature and will be filled with dark contents. To make it historical accurate it will have violence and possibly rape. If you believe it's not for you please remove yourself lol. But I won't tolerate negative comments on the way the characters will behave. Just to make it realistic is all I'm trying to achieve.

TKH-Chapter 3 (unedited)

Katya froze and could not move. He looked at her-waiting. She stared at him and saw his eyes twinkling with amusement. She wasn't aware that he was capable of such emotion. It was almost as if he was jesting with her.

But Katya knew he just wanted to embarrass her. What she did to earn this treatment she wasn't sure. He knew she wouldn't be able to. So she inhaled and exhaled loudly so he knew she wasn't doing this by choice. He was picking on her probably because he thought he was weak. Katya was aware that he fed of people's fears.

So she decided to be brave.

If it got her killed at least she knew she defied him. " Is that an order?" She asked gently yet it was clear that she was challenging him.

His eyes widened slightly- He wasn't expecting that. Good she thought. Perhaps once he sees she's not weak her might leave her. Time went by and he said nothing, he just looked at her. Then he laughed. A loud booming sound escaping his throat. He was laughing at her! Katya could not believe it- he found the situation funny.

"If it has to be" he stated after he finished laughing.

He was testing her she could tell. Katya straightened her back and walked to him. She kneeled at the tub whilst maintaining eye contact with her. She did not know where her bravery came from but Katya would not yield to this man.

"Get up!" He barked all of a sudden. She obeyed.

Katya was sure he would tell her to leave. Then he said "Strip."

Almost as if he had not just asked her to be naked in front of him. Katya felt her blood begin to boil. Perhaps she heard him wrong.

She made no move to remove her garment.

"Are you deaf? I said strip" he spoke louder.

"N-no" she stuttered.

He raised a brow "No?"

"No" she repeated a lot more louder. He smirked. Katy couldn't help but feel like he was happy with her answer.

"How fiery of you my little Kat. I will have fun breaking you. And I cannot wait. " he chuckled.

Katya looked down as he ignored her. All she heard was the swishing of the water as he bathed himself. Then she heard a splash and she knew he was done as got out of the bath. She heard movement as he went to get dressed. She could not believe this. Katya didn't know why she was here. He Marley wanted to embarrass her. She wanted to ask if she could leave but knew that it would only make things worse. So she kept quiet. Perhaps he will forget she was here.

"Come here" he told her. Looks like she thought that too soon. Katya made her way slowly to where he was standing- she felt his gaze burning through her skin. She stopped when she was close to him.

"Closer" he commanded. She walked closer until he grew annoyed. Quickly he wrapped his thick hard arms around her waste and brought her to his chest. It almost felt like a hug but Katya knew this man was not capable of such affection. She felt the water drop from his long hair to her cheeks as he was much taller than her. He smelt wonderful. Katya scolded herself- he is a monster. She kept repeating that in his mind. Do not feel attracted to him. Now keep repeating that. She told herself.
