She was still trying to get her thoughts straight when she found herself being dragged onto the bed, with the guard on top of her. She raised her hands to push him, but he was faster. He caught both of her hands with one of his and pinned them above her head, using his other free hand to cover her mouth.Kitanna felt blood rush to her cheeks, and the next words she heard sent her world spinning in 3D.“Now, moan, princess...” Those words brushed against her ear, causing the hairs on her neck to stand..........Set in historical times, in the ancient kingdom of Morado.
