The War God’s Favorite

Chapter 21

The Hot Springs Maybe it was because he hadn’t seen her for a while that Krai acted exceptionally clingy and

demanding; growling every time Cassandra stopped scratching it. Eventually, Kairen had to intervene,

calling for the dragon to stop and allow them to walk.

Night-time was already falling. Cassandra had no idea when the sun was supposed to set in the

mountains, but the purple waves in the sky indicated it wasn’t very late yet. Careful not to slip on the

thin layer of snow, she followed Kairen closely. Perhaps due to Krai’s presence, or because the

Prince’s tent was so isolated, there weren’t many soldiers in the area. After a few minutes, however,

they crossed paths with many soldiers who were heading in the same direction. A lot of them gave

Cassandra a look. But as Krai was following closely behind her, nobody could afford to stare without

getting growled at.

They progressed along, past the soldiers, but somehow, everyone was careful to stay away from the

trio. Kairen didn’t pay any attention to the soldiers, only slowing down to wait for Cassandra, who was

walking slowly so as not to fall. She was curious to know where they were headed. The Prince had

mentioned a fire pit, did it mean everyone actually ate outside?

Cassandra saw the flames long before they arrived. The fire was so high, she wondered how she did

not notice it sooner. In the middle of the camp, a very large space had been organized with long

wooden tables and hundreds of men gathered around them, making it loud and lively.

Kairen actually walked to what seemed like a special area, where a square of wood had been arranged

with a throne, some fur over it, and a table with gold cutlery. It even had a marquee to protect him from

the wind and snow. Cassandra felt a bit relieved that she would be able to sit on a warm floor, because

some fur carpets were covering the wooden planks. However, once Kairen sat down, he grabbed her to

sit on his lap. Cassandra’s cheeks immediately flushed.

“My Lord!” she protested.

She could handle this kind of thing when they were alone in his room, but they were currently in front of

hundreds of his men! And many of them were staring, too!

But as always, Kairen ignored her pleas and insisted that she settle on his lap. Cassandra was

frustrated. She looked at him with an annoyed pout. Was there no end to his shamelessness!

“Good evening, My Lord,” said a man who was standing a few steps away, along with two younger

servants.

He was probably supposed to assist Kairen during his meal, like was normal for the Imperial Family,

but of course, the Prince had no need for that. However, to Cassandra’s surprise, he made a little

gesture for the young man to approach.

“You. You’ll assist Cassandra from now on.”

“Cassandra?” repeated the man, confused.

Only then did he make the connection with the young slave on their master’s lap. That slave actually

had a name! Regaining his composure, the man bowed lower.

“Understood, My Lord. How does the Lady need assistance?”

“Just do whatever she asks, and go with her whenever she leaves my tent.”

If the man was surprised by those orders, he made sure not to show it this time. Cassandra thought

this man was obviously a trained Imperial Servant, not a soldier. He was too thin and too polite for that.

He simply bowed.

“Understood, My Lord. This lowly servant will do so.”

Then, he stepped back a bit and stood there, waiting. The two young men behind him glanced at

Cassandra, but

when they realized she had seen them they immediately looked down again.

“Tonight’s dinner, My Lord.”

A large selection was provided, all presented on a large gold tray. Once again, Kairen had the best

meat pieces, fish, fruits and bread. Cassandra felt her stomach tighten just by the sight of all the food.

She felt like she hadn’t eaten in ages! Kairen caught her stare and chuckled softly, making her blush.

He really never let an occasion to embarrass her go. Behind them, Krai growled loudly and laid down in

the snow, circling their space with its huge body. Cassandra frowned.

“Isn’t Krai eating?”

“He went to hunt already,” replied Kairen. “Leave us alone.”

The servants bowed and left the place, leaving them, but they weren’t far enough from the soldiers to

truly feel alone. The closest tables were only a few paces away, and Cassandra could see every man’s

face. Kairen started eating, and so did she. She was starving and actually took a bit of the grilled fish

on a stick. After eating for a while and watching the loud chattering, she remembered something.

“Nebora mentioned a food shortage. Are the soldiers alright?”

On the tables, as she looked around she couldn’t help but notice that indeed there wasn’t much meat,

mostly vegetables that didn’t look too good either.

“The cold is chasing the biggest prey away. It’s hard to hunt enough for everyone.”

Cassandra slowly nodded. She didn’t know much about hunting. All the food she had ever gotten was

either bought, stolen, or found.

As they kept eating, she noticed a few stares on her, but overall, most were too cautious of the Prince

and his dragon’s presence to say anything. Though, Krai was only focused on Cassandra. The Black

Beast watched every move she made with curiosity, tilting its head from time to time. She wondered if

the dragon had anything to do while its master was at the camp. Maybe Krai would accompany her the

next day?

“Cassandra.”

Kairen handed her a cup. Cassandra took it, but right before she brought it to her lips, she realized it

wasn’t tea or water, but wine! It smelled strangely sweet and good, and felt warm in her hands.

“What is it?” asked Kairen after she had been staring at it for a bit too long.

“I’ve never had wine before.”

He smiled and drank his in one go. Cassandra was a bit more hesitant, and tasted just a small bit with

her tongue. It was good! She had imagined it would be more sour, not actually sweet. She drank again,

under Kairen’s amused eyes.

“You like it?”

She nodded, her cheeks a bit pink. She drank again, feeling the hot drink go down from her throat to

her stomach, bringing her some warmth. After a while, Kairen frowned and took it away from her.

“Enough. You’ll get drunk.”

“I’m fine, My Lord,” she protested.

But Kairen ignored her and drank the rest of her cup himself, then ordered for the wine to be taken

away. Cassandra was a bit disappointed, but she didn’t dare to ask again, and shifted her interest to

the cheese instead.

Suddenly, a big ruckus took place at one of the nearby tables. For a reason she hadn’t caught on, two

men were now fist fighting and insulting each other. Cassandra was shocked.

“Shouldn’t someone stop them?” she asked.

However, no one around them appeared to want to stop the fight. Actually, the men around were

laughing and cheering, telling them to hit harder and get the other. Cassandra was shocked to see

such violence, as well as so many people happy to witness it. Eventually, one of the men was thrown

down and admitted his defeat. The men around laughed, and to Cassandra’s surprise, his opponent

helped him up with a laugh.

“What…?”

“It’s fine. The soldiers like to fight.”

“But, it could have ended so badly!”

Kairen grabbed some meat and shook his head.

“There are rules. They are not allowed to fight their comrades with any weapon, disable them, or kill

them.”

“Everyone respects the rules?”

“Krai gets an extra meal from time to time…”

Cassandra looked at the dragon. She had almost forgotten about Nebora’s warning. Krai was so cute

to her all the time, she had a hard time remembering that the dragon was actually a man-killer too.

Seeing she was staring, the dragon raised its head, curious, but Cassandra only sighed and turned her

eyes to the men again. The two that had fought before were now laughing together and showing off

their injuries to each other. Men were truly too complicated to understand!

They kept eating in silence. From time to time, one of the generals or lieutenants came up to pay their

respects to the Prince and give him a report, but none of them reacted to Cassandra’s presence at all.

She didn’t mind, as she didn’t want to attract extra attention to herself.

About an hour later, they were done with their meal, and Cassandra was starting to feel cold. With the

night, an icy wind had come along and was biting her exposed skin. The men too, came to eat and left

as quickly as they could, to shield themselves from the wind in their tents. She shivered.

“Are you cold?” asked Kairen, putting his hand on her back.

She nodded. How did he never get cold? No matter what, she had never seen him shiver or get

goosebumps, despite being less clothed than she was!

Kairen stood up, and they left the table, without a word for the servants waiting close. But instead of

heading for his tent, the Prince actually pulled Cassandra towards his dragon, and Krai raised his head.

“My Lord?” she asked.

Without an explanation, he whistled at Krai, and the dragon stood up. But instead of mounting him,

Kairen only held on to an area behind Krai’s head, with his hand. The other held firmly around

Cassandra’s waist, she frowned. She had a bad feeling about this.

When Krai suddenly took off, she couldn’t even find the air in her lungs to scream. The Black Dragon

had gone up so quickly, she felt the wind whip her skin, and hid her face in Kairen’s fur coat by mere

reflex. However, she didn’t have any more time to be scared. Before she realized it, her feet were

touching the ground again, with Kairen’s arm around her.

“Are you alright?”

She wanted to say no, but could only shiver and stay still instead. Kairen caressed her neck until her

nausea was gone.

“Wha… Where…”

Her throat couldn’t formulate any sentences, so she raised her head to look around. It was only at that

moment that she realized they had totally moved locations, and were surrounded by a warm fog.

Cassandra was completely lost. Where were they? But in front of her, Kairen suddenly started

undressing, making her blush again. Couldn’t he at least warn her before getting naked right in front of

her!

“Cassandra.”

She dared to look at him again, as he stepped into what seemed like a natural pool. That’s when it

finally hit her. Hot springs! They were at a natural hot spring!

Cassandra was amazed. It was a completely wild area, where dozens of cavities were filled with

natural hot water. She had only seen man-made hot springs so far! Kairen held his hand out to her, and

she undressed swiftly before joining him. The water was strangely blurry, and she couldn’t even see

her feet. She held onto the Prince’s arm the entire time, too uneasy to let go. The ground under them

was uneven and only Kairen was moving around without worry.

The Prince sat up in one of the hole’s corners, while Cassandra was still glancing sideways.

“This is incredible,” she whispered.

She just couldn’t get the smile off her face, and observed the fog as it melted under her fingers.

Meanwhile, Kairen couldn’t take his eyes off her. Naked, with her long hair falling over her shoulders,

Cassandra was truly a beautiful sight to witness. He moved her to sit on his lap, facing him, making her

blush again.

“Kiss me.”

She softly smiled and obeyed his order right away, putting her lips on his. For once, she wasn’t

hesitating, and Kairen liked that. They kissed, slowly and deeply. Cassandra’s body was finally

warming up in the water, and Kairen caressed her legs below the surface. She shivered, but it wasn’t

because of the cold this time.

Cassandra put her arms around her Master’s neck, kissing him more, and caressing the base of his

hairline where it was shorter. She liked to brush it. Meanwhile, the Prince was busy exploring her body.

His hands were slowly going up her legs, caressing her thighs, before stroking her little bush.

Cassandra couldn’t help but gradually react to his hands, and gasped as soon as his fingers reached

her slit.

Kairen kissed her neck, breathing in her scent and exploring her skin with his lips. He hated that damn

collar that kept him from entirely touching her. He would take care of it, sooner or later. He loathed the

idea of anyone else having any kind of claim to her. She was his, entirely his.

Angered, he penetrated her with his finger without warning, making her cry out in surprise.

“Ah! You… Your Highness…” she gasped.

But Kairen was too pissed to listen. He kept rubbing her clit with his thumb, while his fingers were going

in and out of her, fast. Cassandra was lost by his sudden reaction, and could only clench her hips and

bite her lip, undergoing this sudden treatment. She didn’t want to come just with his fingers! (1

“My Lord!” she cried out, hoping he’d hear and at least slow down before she went crazy.

This time, however, he stopped and she caught her breath, her pussy still throbbing from this sudden

torture she had endured. But the Prince was still angry, and hungry for her. Cassandra’s voice had him

excited, his member rose below the surface. He suddenly stood up, and guided her to stand on another

side, in front of him, bent over the spring’s edge.

“Spread your legs.”

She obeyed, yet having her butt exposed outside of the water was definitely the most embarrassing

position ever. This was the last thought she had before Kairen abruptly penetrated her, filling her

without warning. Cassandra moaned loudly from his brutal incoming, unprepared. With the Prince

behind her, she couldn’t see his movements, and only felt his strong hands holding her hips, while he

started taking her fast and hard. She

couldn’t withstand his rhythm, think, or react. She could only let him do it, using her hands to hold on

and cry out everytime he went in and out. It was brutal, erratic, savage, and she heard his hips

slamming into her butt repeatedly, the sounds of their intercourse echoing in the springs.

“My… My L… Ah! Please… Ah! Slow…Uhm… Down…” she begged in a hoarse voice.

She felt like she was about to explode every time he filled her to the brim. Her legs were shaking and

her pussy was on fire. But, Kairen’s frenzy wasn’t showing any sign of slowing down. He just kept

going, making her cry out.

Cassandra had no idea why he was suddenly so rough and insatiable, but among the mist, she couldn’t

respond. His hard member inside her was making her burn, with the frantic rubbing driving her crazy. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She was surrounded by her own voice, crying out with pleasure in her ears. She had become another

woman, one who took pleasure in her Master’s brutal fucking.

Kairen kept going, and she kept moaning, her legs going weak. It was never ending, and she closed

her eyes, feeling his hardness inside her. Her thighs were unconsciously clenching and her pussy

throbbing as he hammered into her again, and she felt his pleasure coming as hers was near too. His

penetrations slowed down, and he gave two last deep, brutal, poundings with a groan of relief.

Cassandra, shaking, moaned faintly in response. Out of breath, with her insides reeling from the

sudden change, she contemplated the sensations of the weaker orgasm that filled her pussy at the

same time as the Prince relieved himself. (2)

She was too tired and her legs suddenly gave up from under her. Kairen, holding her by the waist, took

a couple steps back and had her sit on him, as they both came back to reality.
