leave me that gown in your will before the execution?тАЭ
Lisni joined Adair in staring at Nossa, clearly just as surprised as Adair was. Nossa had always been
more than quiet and definitely mousy in spite of her auburn hair, green eyes, and good figure, but
suddenly she seemed to have changed completely.
тАЬWho are you, and what have you done with Nossa?тАЭ Lisni demanded, just about taking the words out
of AdairтАЩs mouth. тАЬThe Nossa I know would be over with Aleena and Dinra, nodding her agreement
with them because she wouldnтАЩt have had the nerve to speak even when she didnтАЩt disagree.тАЭ
тАЬI finally got tired of doing things the way everyone told me to do them,тАЭ Nossa said with a dismissive
shrug and a wry smile. тАЬI was assured over and over that if I had patience IтАЩd find everything working out
perfectly, but no one ever mentioned that the perfection would be everyone elseтАЩs, not mine. Being sent
here to lure one of the princes into marrying me тАж broke the spell, I guess you could say, but I can see I
have a really long way to go before IтАЩm in AdairтАЩs league.тАЭ
тАЬTo be frank, I donтАЩt think we can be in AdairтАЩs league,тАЭ Lisni said with a grin. тАЬWe both seem to be
more interested in living than in dying, a fate that Adair obviously isnтАЩt bothered by. So you think the king
will have her executed publicly rather than having her quietly poisoned?тАЭ
Nossa grinned in answer and began to respond, both girls ignoring AdairтАЩs annoyance, but an interruption
came before Nossa could speak.
тАЬLadies, the king and the princes await you at the main table,тАЭ a servant said to them with a bow.
тАЬFollow me, please.тАЭ
Adair exchanged a glance with her two companions, then they all followed the servant. Having
supporters wasnтАЩt any part of AdairтАЩs plans and sheтАЩd have to avoid the two girls for their own good, but
right now she felt less alone than she ever had before in her lifeтАж

Mayne stood with his mouth open only for a moment, and then anger took complete charge of him. No
one would ever have the right to speak to his father the way Adair had, and as soon as he got that girl
alone he would show her just how big a mistake sheтАЩd made.
In his mindтАЩs eye Mayne could see himself following Adair back to her apartment and walking in without
knocking. She would turn to him in annoyance, of course, but he would speak first.
тАЬHow dare you say such things to your liege lord?тАЭ he would demand, letting her see just how angry he
was. тАЬIf nothing else, you now enjoy his hospitality.тАЭ
тАЬIf you think thereтАЩs anything enjoyable about my being here, youтАЩd better take another look,тАЭ the little
mule would answer, raising her chin in defiance. тАЬIf your father doesnтАЩt like what I say, he can always
send me home again.тАЭ
тАЬIf thatтАЩs the plan behind your rudeness you can forget about it,тАЭ Mayne would tell her very flatly. тАЬYou
arenтАЩt going anywhere, and whatтАЩs more you also arenтАЩt going to get away with what you said.тАЭ
And then Mayne would take her arm and pull her into the bedchamber. She would try to resist, of
course, but that would do her as little good as it had done in her fatherтАЩs house. Once they were in the
bedchamber with the door closed, he would sit down and take her over his knee again.
тАЬJust as I thought,тАЭ he would say once heтАЩd raised her lovely green gown skirt to find nothing in the way
of underwear beneath it. тАЬIt was perfectly clear that you were anything but modestly clad under this
gown, and youтАЩre never to do the same again. Showing every man in the palace glimpses of this body is
not acceptable, and if you should be foolish enough to do it again youтАЩll know what to expect.тАЭ
And with that he would start to spank the round and saucy bottom now exposed to his view. One smack
after the other while she shouted at him to stop, but the end of the spanking would not come anything like
that soon. He would smack that bottom over and over, watching it go from white to pink to red,
watching her squirm harder and harder with every stroke of his hand.
Or maybe he would use a hairbrush instead, applying the brush to her backside in a way that would
reach her as his bare hand hadnтАЩt. The hairbrush would make it impossible for her to stay silent, and
before very long she would be apologizing for everything sheтАЩd said. When she began to beg him to stop
spanking her he would ignore her pleas to begin with, making sure she got every bit of the punishment
