"Our next is a girl of eighteen summers. She has smooth, unblemished skin and has been schooled in the arts of love and seduction. But most of all, she is untouched." my auctioneer and captor said as he paraded me in front of the men. They eyed their fill of my body but they were forbidden to touch. "Bidding starts at two hundred pieces of silver." I was returned towards the stage as the men stated their prices. I was a rare commodity: a slave girl yet untouched, eighteen, fertile when the land has been struck with a plague that left women barren. The price for me reached eight hundred silver coins and many have already backed down. "Two hundred gold coins!" a man spoke up. It was he, the man who stared at me with passion and desire in his eyes moments ago. That was quite a sum for a slave! "Two hundred gold coins going once, twice... Sold to the King of Ivaris!" the auctioneer shouted. There it was. My fate was sealed. I am a love slave and it is just my luck that I am sold to the same cruel king that destroyed my kingdom. *A story of love, of gods and goddesses, of reincarnation and magic, intrigue and betrayal, of kings and war...*

"Technically you apologized for two things." I said, not really sure how to respond. I held up two fingers to his face and he kissed them sweetly, making me blush pink. "Are you going to tell me?" He whispered. I gulped. Brain going fuzzy, heart beating eratically, breath labored. I was hopelessly lost in his eyes. Gosh since when did I become such a hopless romantic? "Trying to hurt people I care about don't make me want to forgive you." I responded softly, my eyes drifting to his lips. They quirked up into a half smirk and I quickly returned my eyes to his. My breath caught in my throat. They were full of lust and I was no longer sure if I would be able to resist. "You really want to kiss me right now don't you?"
